Chapter 248 The group next door saw us and thought we couldn't afford it Of course, things won't be that easy. Xu Er was the first to object, "No matter what, this is a spot in a first-rate martial arts academy. We can't just give it to your group, right, Lao Luo?" Before Luo Yiwen could speak, Chen Mo said, "But our group is small to begin with." Wang Qingrui chimed in, “Hey, Brother Chen, you can’t say that. The gap between you extraordinary people is huge. You’re from a top martial arts academy, and you can outshine several others.” "Well, that's true, but we still have to keep watch when we go abroad. It's always difficult to operate with fewer people," Chen Mo replied. "There is also the company's own guard team in the group, what's wrong with that? Wait, if you just recognize one person, can he replace several people?" Chen Mo did not mention his “great performance” during the big exam. He and the three gods were able to fight back and forth, but if it were any of the other people participating in the exam, fighting one against many would not be a problem. Those are the elites from the inner courtyards of various places. Some of the people in the team now even come from third-rate martial arts academies, so they are no match for him. Luo Yiwen knew that Wang Qingrui and Xu Er would not give in easily, so he tried to smooth things over, "How about this, you take two more people away and exchange this little girl for them, okay?"
Chen Mo was immediately moved: "Brother Luo, are you so kind to me?" Luo Yiwen waved his hand: "Everyone is working for the company." Chen Mo patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Brother Luo, as long as I'm here, I will definitely make sure you get the maximum bonus." The three project managers were a little confused. You can promise that you can do it, and you can pat your chest, but what does it mean to put a brick in front of your chest? But soon, Chen Mo used his actions to tell them that there was more than one piece. All the way to the hotel, he kept banging bricks, banging non-stop and coughing as he did so, which made Luo Yiwen try hard to persuade him, fearing that he would beat himself to death before he could accomplish his goal. The reason he coughed was because he had to frequently put the broken bricks into the dark bronze bracelet. After all, Chen Mo still had a basic sense of public morality. Although the broken bricks can still be reused until they are crushed into powder, if this is done on the street, it will cause trouble for sanitation workers to clean up, which is not fair. So he controlled the strength, and each slap was just enough to break the brick in half, and then he put it into the bracelet, so there were almost no broken pieces, and he could reuse it in the deserted war-torn area after leaving the country. When they arrived at the hotel, Chen Mo was still not satisfied, so he went into Luo Yiwen's room on the pretext of discussing a project and continued to criticize and ask questions. It was not until midnight that he walked out of the rough man's room with a satisfied look on his face. "Hey, good people are bound to be bullied." He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Xu Er and Wang Qingrui were obviously working together to exclude the older Luo Yiwen, but they didn't show it too obviously. This kind of exclusion is not due to abnormal psychology, but for the sake of profit. If nothing unexpected happens, after leaving the country, the mining route assigned to Lao Luo will definitely be the one with the lowest rate of return. But it doesn’t matter. Although Chen Mo takes advantage of the other party’s honesty, he wants something in return. It doesn’t matter if the route yield is low, at most you can just extend the exploration range. The next morning, Chen Mo volunteered to pick up Huang Cui downstairs.
Compared to when she was in martial arts school, the girl seemed a little more mature and her face seemed not so round anymore, but her face was still as red when she saw Chen Mo. "Why are you here too?!" Huang Cui asked in surprise. Chen Mo said, "It's just to make a little contribution. I'm just sitting around doing nothing. What about you?" "My mentor said that although I don't have great talent, I'm still pretty down-to-earth and I should gain experience through practice," Huang Cui replied. Chen Mo knew that she must be being modest. With her character who would not give up easily even if the world was about to end, the word "steady" was too shallow. "Come on, I'll take you to see Manager Luo. We're in the same team." He took his people to the hotel, introduced himself to Luo Yiwen, and then when it was time to depart, they went to the Tianxing Mining transit station together. There is already a whole fleet of large off-road vehicles here, enough to carry people. As for shipping, space equipment is standard. Although for individual extraordinary people, medium-grade spiritual tools are still a bit expensive, the company can definitely afford it. If it can't afford it, it can't do this business. The war-torn areas outside have been in chaos for decades. Don't expect to have built-in roads for trucks to pass through. There are many places where these off-road vehicles cannot reach, and sometimes you have to rely on your legs. In addition to the high-quality bodyguards hired from the martial arts academy, the team also includes the company's original guard team and front-line business personnel, totaling more than a hundred people. Even though the modified large off-road vehicles were very capable of carrying a lot of cargo, it still took more than a dozen to load them all. In the back seat, Chen Mo was in the middle, with Huang Cui on the left and Luo Yiwen on the right. Originally, Manager Luo was going to sit in the front row, but Chen Mo needed this unkempt man to sit nearby so he could ask questions, so he let the only person from another martial arts academy in the team sit in the front. Manager Luo was easy to talk to, so he naturally agreed. The man from the martial arts academy didn't say anything because of the reputation of Master Chen Mo. So while the convoy was driving, Chen Mo was not idle either, he was clapping bricks, coughing and beeping. Amidst such noise, the convoy drove to the border checkpoint. After showing their official passes and receiving instructions from a captain of the border force to "be careful", they successfully left the country. Chen Mo finally calmed down. He leaned on the window and looked at the scenery outside. Although this kind of scenery is not beautiful, it is still shocking for those who see it for the first time. Various trees affected by the power of the underworld grew to enormous sizes, with their roots breaking through the roads and blocking out the sunlight. If it weren't for the off-road vehicle specially modified to adapt to this environment, ordinary vehicles would be unable to move forward. "Those portals to the Netherworld were finally controlled, right?" Huang Cui asked in a weak, mosquito-like voice. She said this just to divert attention. After all, in his current position, Chen Mo was lying on the window, which was basically the same as lying on her thighs. "Of course I have it under control." Chen Mo said, "Just like here, we just need to ensure that the road from the entrance to the Nether Abyss to the border is open." After seeing enough, he finally turned back and sat down. After a bumpy ride, the convoy stopped. "It's here!" A middle-aged strong man shouted with full energy, "This is the first exploration point, let's set up camp together."
This man is called Deng Bin. He is the security chief of the company's guard team and belongs to Xu Er's group. He has the cultivation level of the third realm and has a lot of say. After all, for the company, the fourth realm transcendents are outsiders, and he is one of their own. The three project managers each called upon the stronger bodyguards in their own teams, as well as the persons in charge of mining and exploration to arrange the plans, while the others were responsible for setting up the camp. On Luo Yiwen's side, in addition to the three people from the martial arts academy, the leader of the guard team, and two key business personnel. "Brothers, our goal at the first site is to complete 120 performance points. The task is not heavy, but we must proceed steadily. Our security force is relatively small, so safety comes first." Chen Mo raised his hand again: "What does 120 performance points mean?" "Well, we need to explore about 20 kilometers to the northwest and mine the spiritual silk ore discovered there." Luo Yiwen said. Chen Mo frowned. "How can 20 kilometers be enough? If the project team next door sees us, they will think we can't afford it." Luo Yiwen laughed dryly: "No, no, no, they are all the same." Chen Mo was anxious: "What do you mean they are all the same? Who can pick them with just this little? Add another 5 kilometers, 5 kilometers per person!" (End of this chapter)
