Chapter 199 South City Construction Site



"What's going on? Why are you stopping? Don't you know we have to rush the work?"

The person called the head was a middle-aged bald man wearing a large gold chain.

He was very dissatisfied when he saw Li Shugen stop.

He rented all these excavators. The rental cost for one excavator was one thousand yuan a day, plus the labor cost of five hundred yuan. They work ten hours a day, and if you calculate it to the minute, one minute of stoppage is equivalent to two dollars and fifty cents.

"Boss, there seems to be something underneath. I can't dig it out. If I try to dig hard, the excavator will be damaged."

Li Shugen had been following him all the time, so he knew his fussy personality and quickly brought out the excavator as an excuse.

"What? The excavator isn't broken, is it?"

The bald man panicked when he heard this and asked hurriedly, knowing that the repair cost of an excavator is very high.

"No, I stopped as soon as I realized something was wrong. Don't worry, boss. I've been working with you for years. How could I do that without thinking?"

Li Shugen looked at the bald man's nervous expression and smiled secretly.

"That's good, that's good, Tree Root, you always do things properly. Let me see what it is!" said the bald man.

"Boss, this seems to be a pretty big stone!" Li Shugen said as he looked at what was exposed under the excavator's claws.

"It really is a stone. Isn't this a village? There used to be many families living here. How could there be such a big stone here? Judging from its shape and color, it must have been buried here for quite a long time!"

The bald man looked at the exposed bluish-black stones and knew at a glance that they had been buried in the soil for many years.

"Why, what happened?"

"Why did you stop? Did you find some treasure? I heard someone in this village found an ancient coin before!"

The other excavators also stopped and gathered around to watch the fun. Those who drove the excavators often dug up some strange things.

So when they saw it stopped here and turned its head over, they were curious and stopped to take a look.

"Go away, go away. What are you doing here? Hurry up and get to work. If you continue to be lazy, your wages will be deducted!" The bald man saw that everyone had stopped and hurriedly warned them.

A few people who wanted to watch were stopped by his threat to deduct their wages, so they had no choice but to work honestly.

The baldy guy really deducts wages, calculating it down to the minute. He knows if anyone urinates a few more times today. He watches them every day, fearing that they will be lazy.

But there was one person who looked in this direction a few more times with a strange expression, then turned back to the excavator, took out his mobile phone and sent a message. After that, he would keep an eye on the developments here while working.

Li Shugen found a shovel from somewhere and started digging along the stones!

But after digging for a long time, they still couldn't reach the bottom. There was no choice but to get on the excavator and start operating it to continue what they had been doing.

"Tree roots, is it possible? If not, let's not dig anymore and talk about it later. But don't damage the excavator.

Otherwise, you’ll have to pay for the repairs yourself!"

The bald man watched the excavator's claws digging back and forth on the edge of the stone, feeling a little frightened, fearing that the excavator's claws would fall off in the next second.

I have to say that Li Shugen's digging skills are quite good. He slowly dug along the stone, dug up the surrounding soil, and dug a large pit.

There is only a stone left inside, and a small half is buried in the soil. All we have to do is dig up this small half.

However, as he was digging, he felt that the stone seemed to move. This meant he had dug it up. Li Shugen was delighted and continued to control the joystick in his hand.

However, a strange thing happened. The excavator's claws did not exert much force, and the big rock shook again. Yes, it shook.

Li Shugen hesitated for two seconds, then controlled the joystick and exerted force. The excavator's claw pushed towards the stone, and the stone rolled aside. A hole appeared where the stone had been.

"Boss?" Li Shugen quickly got off the excavator and came to the bald man. The two of them looked at the cave entrance in a daze.

The bald man picked up a piece of hard soil and threw it into the cave, but the soil was swallowed by the darkness and he had no idea what was going on inside the cave.

"What the hell is going on? Stop digging. I'm going to call the person in charge. Please don't let anything happen!"

The two men just watched from above, and neither of them went down. There were still many taboos in their digging work.

Now that such a big hole suddenly appeared, everyone would find it strange.

Baldy was on the phone, and Li Shugen was thinking about the hole. They didn't notice it. Someone came over and saw the hole, and secretly took out his mobile phone to take a picture.

He pretended to go back to his excavator and immediately sent out the photos he had just taken.

While he was sending the photos, the bald man was still on the phone.

“Manager, please send someone over here to take a look, so as not to affect our excavation work.

Someone will come tomorrow? Okay, okay, then we'll dig somewhere else first!" The bald man made a phone call and nodded and bowed. There was nothing he could do, because he was the manager of the engineering project department.

"Shugen, please move the stone back to its original place first. Someone from their project department won't come until tomorrow!" The bald man hung up the phone and said to Li Shugen.

"Okay, boss!" Li Shugen heard him climb onto the excavator so nimbly. With his previous experience, he put the big rock back in its original position in no time.

After that, the two of them didn't care about the stone anymore and went about their own business.

In Xiao Yichen's office.

"Knock, knock!"

"Come in!" Xiao Yichen, who was sitting at the desk, was looking carefully at the documents in his hand.

"Boss, Huazi has discovered something again. This is the picture he sent over!" Special Assistant Zhao walked over quickly as soon as he entered the room, with interest on his face!

He handed the tablet in his hand to Xiao Yichen, and the picture on it was the photo of the cave entrance that the man at the excavation site had secretly taken.

"Haha, it's really fast!" Xiao Yichen couldn't help laughing as he looked at the familiar hole.

"How did Yan Fugui deal with it?" Xiao Yichen asked.

"Yan Fugui and the others don't seem to know about this yet, and their project manager doesn't seem to be taking it too seriously!"

Special Assistant Zhao said with some gloating that there was obviously a problem from this picture, but those idiots at Fugui Real Estate didn't pay much attention to it.

"Really? Then let's fan the flames. Arrange for someone to make an anonymous report, saying that a large ancient tomb has been discovered in the land south of the city. I believe the country takes this very seriously."

Xiao Yichen looked at the picture and said quietly, his voice a little cold.

"Ancient tomb, boss, you said this is an ancient tomb?

Those plots of land would be wasted!"
