Forget it, let's think about how to modify the tunnel first.
Le Wu took out her phone and started looking for renovation teams online. She didn't consider those with bad reviews and went straight for the ones with high ratings.
However, most highly rated renovation teams are not short of work; their appointments are booked months in advance.
Goodness, how could they wait? Lewu immediately started to use her "money power," sending private messages with double the price quote to see if anyone would answer. In no time, five companies replied.
Yuewu stated her requirements, and three families refused.
Because the requirements were too high, who would go to such great lengths to build a house these days? Besides, it's not like they're building some secret research institute. They all thought Yue Wu had something wrong with his head.
Yuewu directly said the wages would be three times the normal rate, and then no one dared to object.
Actually, there was no other way for the music and dance troupe; time was too tight, and finding more teams was also a way to finish the project faster.
Many people might think this is wishful thinking, that it's impossible in such a short time, but "money" can make it happen.
Yuewu could only hope that the apocalypse would not come next week, nor the week after, but rather that as much time as possible would be available for her to renovate the tunnel.
Without thinking too much, Yuewu agreed to go to the north of the city to observe the tunnel together the next day, and then went straight to sleep.
When I arrived at the entrance of the North City Tunnel the next day, there were already seven or eight people standing there.
When Yuewu arrived, everyone stopped chatting, exchanged brief greetings, and began to get down to business.
Yuewu told them to wait a moment, and she went into the tunnel alone to observe the interior.
The cave walls at the entrance are relatively smooth and flat, but they become increasingly uneven as you go deeper, until about 50 meters in, a wall appears with many chisel marks from different tools. It was too difficult to excavate here, so work was stopped.
The tunnel is 6 meters wide and 8 meters high. Le Wu is very satisfied with this space and has already made a simple plan in his mind on how to utilize it.
Le Wu returned to the tunnel entrance with cheerful little steps, and could hear people talking about her from afar.
"I don't know what young people are thinking these days, doing all this fancy stuff."
"That's right, people with a little money get arrogant."
"What use is such a big place?"
"Yes, it's at least 50 meters long. If it were built, it would cost at least several million, not to mention three times the labor cost."
"The more I think about it, the more unreliable it seems. Is this girl trying to scam us?"
Some people have already started to back out.
When Yuewu came out, she saw these people who were chatting the most enthusiastically, but she didn't give them a second glance.
He turned to the others and said, "I need to get the tunnel built to a habitable state in the shortest possible time."
Some people are curious, "How short is the shortest?"
“One week!” Yuewu replied expressionlessly.
On the other side, however, it was as if a nest had been disturbed, and all sorts of noises instantly erupted.
One person became impatient: "Do you know how many days it takes to build a house? A week? Are you kidding me? Triple pay? We wouldn't do it even if you paid five times the normal wage. Aren't you just messing with us? What a waste of our time!"
After saying that, the man turned and left, followed by three other people.
Now only two families and one individual remain.
The reason it's described as a single person is because it wasn't a high-rated renovation team that Lewu actively sought out; rather, it was a newly registered account that proactively contacted Lewu.
He told Yuewu about their advantages: the price was relatively low, but the workmanship was definitely not bad. He also sent some designs that he had participated in designing.
Le Wu had already rejected him last night, but he sent her a barrage of messages this morning, which woke her up completely, and that's when she finally agreed to let him come over.
The other two renovation teams also looked unhappy. They felt that Yue Wu was completely ignorant about building houses and had made such a boastful request.
It was their good manners not to leave immediately, but they still spoke up eventually, "I don't think we can meet your requirements. We've never modified a tunnel before, so we have zero experience in this area. You should find someone else!"
Yue Wu watched their departing figures without saying a word.
Only the man remained, staring at Le Wu in disbelief; the scene was somewhat comical.
Seeing that Yue Wu's expression wasn't good, the man coughed and offered, "I think I can give it a try."
Yuewu's eyes lit up instantly as she looked at the man expectantly, waiting for him to continue.
The man introduced himself.
Feng Xuanlang, 28 years old, used to work for a decoration company, but recently resigned to start his own business, which is why he took the initiative to ask Yue Wu to recommend him.
It wasn't until later that Yuewu learned the reason for his resignation: an accident had occurred at the decoration company, leaving a migrant worker, a bricklayer, in a vegetative state, with only two children at home.
When the company saw this situation, they offered very little compensation and threatened the two children to sign a guarantee, otherwise they would not receive a single penny.
Feng Xuanlang was among those who went there at the time. Seeing this scene, he couldn't get over his conscience and reported it directly.
This incident caused quite a stir when it was exposed, and after he resigned, no other decoration company dared to hire him, so he had no choice but to go out on his own.
