Chapter 218 Coach Rental Company
After all, under these circumstances, it was impossible to establish a complete cooking system right away.
Although Xie Jiang\'s construction team came with their own chef, such mass-produced site meals probably wouldn\'t be palatable to those involved in archaeology.
Hou Jianchang had proactively taken on the task of handling the meals for the past few days.
He didn\'t just bring products from the factory, but also had the canteen steam a large quantity of steamed buns.
Chen Yu, though he had just taken part in a cooking competition, had rushed over here without eating and sat down to have lunch with the archaeology team.
As they were eating, an old van suddenly appeared not far away.
Soon after, five sleazy-looking middle-aged men crawled out of the vehicle.
"Where\'s Li Zongze? Get your ass out here!"
Chen Yu furrowed his brows; he had never heard of the name Li Zongze, so how could he possibly know where he was?
However, at a glance, he knew these people meant trouble, and the idea of them harming any of the archaeology workers was unthinkable.
Just as he was about to stand up, Hou Jianchang suddenly stepped up to intercept them.
"What do you want with Old Li?"
The leader raised the stick in his hand, pointing it at Hou Jianchang.
"Hurry up and get that old bastard out here, he still owes us money!"
Hou Jianchang sized up the men in front of him: "You\'re from the bus rental company, aren\'t you? Whatever Old Li does, it\'s his own choice. You coming here is an infringement on his personal freedom!"
The sleazy man snorted coldly: "I\'ve already told you, he owes us money, it has nothing to do with the rental company."
Hou Jianchang stood his ground, as he clearly understood the situation.
Li Zongze was now the factory\'s dedicated driver, and he had also brought several skilled drivers with him here.
This undoubtedly had touched the bus rental company\'s interests.
Them sending people to make trouble here made sense now!
Chen Yu directly joined Hou Jianchang\'s side: "Old Hou, don\'t waste your time talking to these people, come over and eat."
Worry was written all over Hou Jianchang\'s face; Li Zongze was an important employee under their care, and they could not afford any mishaps.
Seeing their determination, the men stopped their idle talk and charged with the sticks in their hands.
But they had barely run two steps before Chen Yu kicked them and sent them flying.
"So it\'s the bus rental company, huh? Go back and tell your boss that after this industrial park is built, I will need many buses! They can choose to cooperate with me, or they can choose to oppose me. As for the consequences, let them weigh that for themselves."
These people were not professional thugs to begin with, and after being kicked away by Chen Yu, they didn\'t dare make another move.
They scrambled into the van and quickly fled the scene.
Chen Yu furrowed his brows as he suddenly realized that some of Suzhou City\'s business tactics were indeed a bit unsavory.
Just last night, Zhao Erhu had sent people to make trouble at his shop, and today, the bus rental company actually sent people to the factory to cause trouble.
Chen Yu wasn\'t afraid of people causing trouble, but no one could handle endless disturbances.
"Old Chen, what\'s up?"
Xie Jiang led a dozen workers and hurried over, looking ready for a fight.
"It\'s nothing, just a few insignificant hooligans," Chen Yu dismissed casually, suddenly grabbing Xie Jiang\'s shoulder.
"Old Xie, your construction company is getting bigger and bigger. Are you interested in becoming the number one construction company in Suzhou City?"
Xie Jiang was first stunned, then instinctively took a few steps back.
"Old Chen, don\'t make fun of me. Suzhou City is a new first-tier city after all, and the real estate business has long been divided up by others. How could there be a chance for me?"
Chen Yu just smiled, "No problem, as long as you want it, it can be yours!"
Xie Jiang\'s breathing suddenly became rapid, not one of the things promised by Chen Yu had ever failed!
"Old Chen, are you really sure?"
Chen Yu pointed to the industrial park in front: "Right now, all the so-called real estate companies can\'t get a decent project. This industrial park can be said to be the biggest piece of fat in Suzhou City."
"With this project, your company should be able to enter the top ten in Suzhou City. With a little more effort, what can\'t you achieve?"
Xie Jiang clenched his fist subconsciously: "Old Chen, just tell me what to do!"
"I\'ll come up with a plan for you later, and use my resources and connections to help you. You just need to focus on your own work."
Xie Jiang immediately felt his blood boil. When he started in this industry, he only wanted to make some extra money to supplement the household income, but he never expected to grow so much.
Now, he even had the qualifications to compete with the big real estate tycoons of Suzhou City!
Chen Yu didn\'t say much more, simply returning to the construction site to continue eating.
After a brief rest, the old professor continued the excavation with a group of workers.
The surface cleaning work was basically complete, and now it was just a matter of digging everything up from underground.
Right then, two workers dug up a large black box.
As soon as the object was excavated, it emitted a strange fragrance. However, this fragrance seemed to carry an anesthetic effect, and two workers fell unconscious immediately.
"Everybody, back off!"
The old professor shouted anxiously, quickly grabbed a spare gas mask from the side, put it on, and dragged the unconscious workers away.
"Drowsy Sandalwood!"
Chen Yu\'s eyes widened at once; this fragrance was not from an ordinary wood but a fine substance known for calming the mind and enhancing cognitive faculties.
In ancient times, many nobles used this fragrance for their beds, as it not only induced fast sleep but was also believed to extend life and benefit one\'s health.
The two workers weren\'t poisoned, they were simply put to sleep by the strong scent.
"Leave this to me to handle!"
Chen Yu suddenly called out, stepping forward to lift the large black box, and quickly ran off to one side.
This item, whether as a medicine or for other purposes, was top-quality, and Chen Yu naturally wanted to keep some for himself.
Seeing the box carried off, the old professor also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, everyone continue the excavation. However, be cautious about safety, avoid any unidentified objects, and don\'t rashly handle them."
The group responded in unison and resumed their hard work.
Right then, a business van abruptly stopped near the construction site.
