Chapter 14 The Construction Site Under the Scorching Sun
Time passed day by day, and despite reluctance, the season inevitably entered midsummer.
For the people in the southern half of the Sainz continent, midsummer is always extremely hot, and no one wants to sweat in the open field under the scorching sun, because it is simply a kind of torment.
But if you think that every drop of sweat you shed can finally settle the golden gold coins, then the feeling of suffering will be much better.
The workers from the Amley Chamber of Commerce on the construction site of the Xinfei Institute of Magic Industry had this kind of thinking in mind at the moment, and despite the heat wave on their bodies, they still worked hard to carry out the work at hand non-stop.
In fact, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce is not so unsympathetic to workers. On the contrary, in the chambers of commerce in the Lampali Kingdom and neighboring countries, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce has always treated employees very well.
It's just that this time the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has very tight time requirements for the Academy of Magic Industry. It actually requires the Amley Chamber of Commerce to be completed and delivered before the end of this year, which makes them forced to work hard under the scorching sun of midsummer.
Moreover, the workers sent this time were divided into two shifts. Even at night, there would still be a group of workers continuing to work under the illumination of the magic lamp, hardly missing even a minute.
It is precisely because of this kind of time-saving that the construction of the Xinfei Magic Industry Academy is extremely fast.
Obviously, it was only last month that the start of construction was confirmed, and now, in less than a month, this huge academy, which covers an area of more than five square kilometers, has completed the foundation of most of the buildings, and it has begun to take shape.
According to the estimation of Riley, vice president of the Amley Chamber of Commerce, who is in charge of this project, if this speed is maintained. I am afraid that it will be completed without waiting until the end of the year.
certainly. able to have such a fast speed. It also relies on a large number of new engineering magic machines provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
For example, the large-scale self-service magic mixer newly developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce allows workers to quickly mix evenly and become qualified concrete for use only by throwing in the corresponding cement, sand and gravel.
The new generation of magic cutting machine, which is also newly developed, can cut steel bars very easily, and can also weld and combine these steel bars at will with the new small magic welder.
With these alone, the efficiency of building foundations far exceeds that of the past.
As for the comparison with other construction chambers that haven't adopted magic engineering machinery on a large scale...
There is no comparison at all.
The Amli Chamber of Commerce was originally only a fairly good construction chamber of commerce in Bangta City, but since it cooperated with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it has quickly become the most powerful construction chamber of commerce in neighboring countries. none of them.
In terms of construction speed, construction quality, and even architectural style, no other construction chamber of commerce can compare with Amley Chamber of Commerce.
For example, the thirteen-storey Bonta Hotel, newly built in the new town of Bonta City just last month, represents the most advanced construction technology of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce.
Not to mention building the same big hotel, other construction companies, even if they try to find a way to build a building with a total of 13 floors and a total of more than 50 meters, it is an impossible task.
Just relying on this big hotel is enough to prove that the Amrit Chamber of Commerce currently has a superior position in the construction industry that far surpasses its peers.
And all of this is due to the close cooperation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, for any engineering request put forward by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Amley Chamber of Commerce will give priority to it as soon as possible, and send the best engineering supervisors and construction teams to complete it. There is absolutely no delay or ambiguity.
This Xinfei Magic Industry Academy is the most important engineering project that Xu Yi proposed by name by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the near future, so after hearing Xu Yi's request. Without further ado, Chairman Cruise sent the two most elite construction teams of the Amley Chamber of Commerce, and even sent Riley, who had been promoted to vice-chairman, to supervise in person, just to ensure the quality of the entire project. Absolutely perfect.
In fact, after being promoted to vice president, Riley has seldom come to the construction site in person as a supervisor in the past two years, and has focused more on management.
If it weren't for this project being a major project designated by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Riley would never have appeared here.
Of course, Riley is quite willing to serve Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
After all, he is now able to climb to the position of vice president of the Amly Chamber of Commerce, because he was the engineering supervisor in the first cooperation project between the Amly Chamber of Commerce and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In terms of his relationship with Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi, no one in the entire Amley Chamber of Commerce can compare with him, even Chairman Cruise.
But no matter how much you want in your heart, you still have to face reality.
Riley looked up at the sun that had been hanging directly above his head for a long time, felt the violence of the sun, thought about it, and decided to let the workers take a break.
Yesterday, it was because he didn't take this into account and let the workers keep working. As a result, two workers passed out due to heat stroke, which delayed a lot of the progress of the project.
He would never make such a mistake before, this time it was entirely because he was too eager to complete the project of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, so he was too careless.
While thinking about how long it would be more appropriate for the workers to rest, Riley suddenly heard a rumbling sound behind him.
Without looking back, Riley knew that this must be the large magic engineering vehicle from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Sure enough, as soon as he turned around, he saw a row of five extremely huge magic locomotives, as tall as two people, with a huge dump behind them, driving quickly on the newly filled dirt road in the distance.
These five magic locomotives are the magic locomotives for large-scale engineering transportation launched by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce two months ago.
Although the loading volume of this magic locomotive is not much larger than that of a large freight magic locomotive, its carrying capacity is much larger, even exceeding an astonishing one hundred tons.
Such a terrifying carrying capacity is very suitable for all kinds of construction sites and mines, so once it was launched, it immediately received such proposals as the Falcao Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Lampari and the Robinson Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Luerson. Chambers of commerce dealing in mineral resources are welcome.
According to Xu Yi, the Falcao Chamber of Commerce alone ordered 100 cars at one go, with a total price of 700,000 gold coins.
That's right, the unit price of such a large engineering transport magic locomotive has reached an astonishing seven thousand gold coins.
However, even with such an astonishing price, they are still being snapped up like crazy. Even if the Amley Chamber of Commerce wants to buy some large-scale construction sites in the future, it has to rely on the personal relationship between President Cruise and Xu Yi to book in advance. .
And even if this is the case, it is just that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has accepted an order of 150 vehicles, and it will not be fully delivered until the end of this year.
There is no way, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always been limited by production capacity, which even Xu Yi himself can't do anything about.
These five large magic engineering vehicles were specially selected by President Cruise from the 20 vehicles delivered by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in advance, which shows that he attaches great importance to this project.
Of course, thanks to these five large magic engineering vehicles, the progress of this construction site has been kept smooth and fast.
After a while, five large magic engineering vehicles slowly stopped outside the construction site. The co-pilot door of the first engineering vehicle opened, and the person who jumped out was a manager from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce who was mainly in charge of the project.
Seeing it was him, Riley greeted him with some surprise.
"Director Vito, why are you here? It's noon, the weather is so hot..."
Director Vito wiped the fine layer of sweat that gushed out of his forehead in an instant, looked up at the bright and dazzling sun in the sky, shook his head, and sighed: "It's such a terrible weather, thanks to the fact that you still have to work under the sun , It was really hard work."
After finishing speaking, Director Vito walked around the front of the car and waved to the back. Several young men in the uniform of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce jumped out of the dump of the last large magic engineering vehicle, and then kept going down from the dump. carrying things.
"This is..." Riley was stunned.
"Hehe, Director Riley, you and your brothers have to work in the hot weather. It's really hard, so the chairman asked us to provide you with some logistical support. No, I brought some Moon Shadow Drinks Merchant just now. The vanilla cold drink launched here will quench the brothers' thirst and reduce the heat."
Riley was surprised to see the large jars brought down from the tipping bucket, and couldn't help but waved his hands: "This... President Xu is too polite, isn't he? The cold drinks of Moon Shadow Drinks are very expensive. At least a dozen gold coins for a can, right?"
"Not much, the market price of a can is only 18 gold coins. And based on the relationship between our Chamber of Commerce and the Moon Shadow Tribe, there are still discounts. Alright, Director Riley, go and tell the brothers to stop and drink Take a few sips of drinks to rest. The weather is too hot, if you don’t let them pay more attention, maybe someone will suffer from heat stroke, that would be bad.” Vito laughed.
Riley was slightly taken aback, looking a little embarrassed.
It seems that Vito suddenly brought these things here today, it must be because he knew that there were workers on the construction site who passed out due to heatstroke yesterday.
He thought it was his own mistake, and now that Vito brought it up, he was naturally a little embarrassed.
Vito seemed to see what he was thinking, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a slightly lowered voice: "Actually, you don't have to be so anxious. Although the president really hopes to get rid of this magic industry before the end of this year The academy was completed, but he also said that people should be the center of attention at all times. So of course it’s okay to catch up with the progress, but if something happens, it’s not worth the loss. And...to be honest, it’s hard to say whether this Academy of Magic Industry can continue to be built. I can't even tell..."
"Ok?"
Riley looked at Vito with a worried face in astonishment, wondering in his heart.
President Xu of the Academy of Magic Industry attaches great importance to it, and has already invested a minimum of more than 600,000 gold coins in the early stage.
If we don't continue to build it suddenly, wouldn't all these initial investments be in vain? (To be continued..)
