Beating the New First-tier: Starting from Abandoned Gas Stations

Chapter 68 The Unable to Bear the Contractor

"Leader, you say!"

Wang Kailong said hurriedly.

Ever since they learned the identities of the people at the gas station, the foremen could no longer go back to when they first came to the gas station.

"Can you find some more workers? I want to catch up on the progress."

Shen Chuan said.

"Still looking?"

It would have been fine if he hadn't heard it, but as soon as he heard it, Wang Kailong immediately swallowed nervously.

"Well, there's a project slightly larger than the Grand View Garden across the national highway that urgently needs to be started. You definitely don't have enough people on hand right now."

Shen Chuan nodded.

"Is it even bigger than the Grand View Garden?"

Wang Kailong took several deep breaths, and even a hint of despair flashed in his eyes. It was not until half a minute later that he slowly calmed down.

"Yes."

"Leader, I, I, I have reached my limit, it really is..."

After hesitating for a long time,
Wang Kailong looked at Shen Chuan with embarrassment.

once Upon a time,

He once thought that he had encountered the best project, and he reached full capacity early on, wishing he could continue working there.

However, when I really started working three shifts non-stop every day, I found that having too many good projects is also a sweet burden!

He slept for more than four hours yesterday and the day before yesterday combined.

I had thought that after finishing the Grand View Tower, I would have a good rest for a few days, and then take on the subsequent projects in the Grand View Garden. As a result, the subsequent projects had not even started, and another large project that was still pursuing a deadline came up across the national highway. How could I not despair?
Making money is important,
But this kind of money-making is really unsustainable.

"Has it reached its limit?"

Shen Chuan frowned slightly.

"Boss, to be honest, even though the project payment was settled in the company's name, I'm actually just a small contractor. I've really reached my limit now."

Wang Kailong sighed.

It is important for people to know themselves!
He is very clear about his abilities. It's not that he can't find more than a hundred workers a day in the labor market, but that if more people come, his management will not be able to keep up, and there will definitely be a lot of problems.

"In that case, I'll go look for them. You go ahead and get busy!"

After a little thought,

Shen Chuan did not make things difficult for Wang Kailong.

But before Shen Chuan turned around, Wang Kailong hurriedly added,
"Leader, you don't need to look for them. As far as I know, they have already reached their limit."

"Then, do you know any other colleagues in Gequan City?"

Shen Chuan was stunned.

Come to think of it, Wang Kailong has reached his limit now, and the other three should be about the same.

"Leader, as far as I know, apart from the four of us, anyone else with a bit of strength in Gequan City is either currently working on a project or has gone to other places!"

Wang Kailong shook his head.

"So the only option left is to go to those state-owned construction companies?"

Shen Chuan's frown deepened.

Theoretically, the construction companies of Xia Guoyang's state-owned enterprises are stronger and have more complete equipment, but the bigger the scale, the more problems there are. Even if they are paid, they may not be able to speed up the construction.
Some even withhold project funds and fail to pay downstream contractors, causing project progress to be delayed again and again.

therefore,

If given a choice, Shen Chuan would resolutely not use state-owned enterprises.

Or seeing Shen Chuan's thoughts,
Wang Kailong thought for a moment and said,

"Boss, let me tell you, with your ability, you can definitely register a construction company that specializes in antique-style projects."

"Register yourself?"

Shen Chuan's mind moved.

"Well, both you and Dean Liang are authorities on ancient architecture and have the relevant qualifications! Plus, your leadership skills are definitely much stronger than ours. We can set up a company by simply purchasing some equipment and hiring some workers."

Wang Kailong nodded. "But didn't you just say..."

"Leader, I've reached my limit. It's not like there are no more migrant workers in Gequan City. I can recruit as many as you want."

"This"

For a moment, Shen Chuan fell into deep thought.

At noon, the sun is shining brightly.
The Gobi Desert is much hotter than other places, so many workers have already changed into short sleeves.

"Lao Liang, is this how the staff dormitory building across the street was built?"

Looking at the foundation pit in front of me and the hundreds of workers busy tying scaffolding and building guardrails,

Lu Zeyang couldn't help but sigh.

He really didn't expect that in just one morning, there would be such a huge change at the food stall.

"A lot of workers came to Engineer Zhang's place yesterday. I estimate that the construction of the food stalls should be even faster than that of the staff dormitory."

Liang Xun, who was supervising the work nearby, took a look at the drawings before speaking.

"This kind of construction speed was unimaginable in the past!"

Lu Zeyang glanced at the staff dormitory building opposite.

Today, the staff dormitory building has entered the final stage.

Let it dry for a while tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
All gas station owners, including interns, can officially move in.

"It all comes down to the issue of project payment. As long as the payment is settled smoothly, many projects can actually be completed very quickly."

Liang Xun rolled up the drawings.

"When do you estimate the food stall will be completed?"

Lu Zeyang couldn't help but ask again.

"There's no specific date for this, but it will definitely be operational before April 5th! Meanwhile, Xiaoyu, who's in charge of the gas station, just sent me a message saying they're going to build another identical supermarket to the west of the food stall.
I estimate that this building will be put into use before April 5th."

Liang Xun looked at Lu Zeyang.

Too many accounts don't worry you; too many lice don't itch. Now he doesn't feel anything when he hears about this kind of small project that was launched temporarily, as long as it is not as exciting as Shen Chuan's.

"Doesn't that mean you'll be very busy these days?"

Lu Zeyang hesitated for a moment before speaking again.
"Lao Liang, it's not good for me to stay by your side all day. Can you help me find something to do? Otherwise, it's not right to eat and drink at Xiao Shen's place every day!"

Ever since I told Liang Xun about my current situation,

Lu Zeyang had no plans to follow Liang Xun for the time being, and had no plans to leave the gas station unless Liang Xun also left.

"You? How can a medical professor like you help?"

Liang Xun waved his hand.

He knew how Lu Zeyang felt right now. In fact, if he were to put himself in his shoes, he would think the same way.

After a pause,
Before Lu Zeyang could speak, Liang Xun joked,

"Lao Lu, why don't you set up a stall in front of the staff dormitory building? There are quite a few workers at the gas station now, and there are always a few who have headaches and fevers every day! This can also be regarded as a disguised way to speed up the progress of the project.
Otherwise, these workers would have to go to the county town to buy medicine and see a doctor, which would be such a waste of time!"

"I do want to! The problem is, how can we set up a stall here when there's not even a stethoscope? And even if we set up a stall, how can we get prescriptions? You better be realistic!"

Knowing that Liang Xun was joking,

Lu Zeyang glared at him unhappily and added,
"Lao Liang, I'm serious! Find me a job, or I really can't stay here any longer."

"live"

Looking at Lu Zeyang's serious face, Liang Xun stopped joking and thought for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of something and said,

"You know what, if you can't stay idle, there really is one."

"What are you doing?"

Lu Zeyang hurriedly looked at Liang Xun.

"Xiao Shen said last night that there's a local support event on April 10th, and they might need a venue. If you're free these few days, could you help with that?"

Liang Xun said.
