Chapter 1204: Chapter 1061 Finally Swallowed This Breath (Please Subscribe!)
Humiliation.
Jerry had decided.
He would plan it well, both to vent his anger and to turn a profit.
"Let’s go."
Jerry angrily got into the car.
The convoy set off again.
By this time, it was getting dark and clouds were gathering in the sky. They had to hurry back before nightfall because the road home was too difficult to navigate and if it rained, there was a high probability of getting stuck.
They had driven less than ten kilometers.
When it suddenly started to rain.
And it was a downpour.
The road became blurred.
"Bang..."
There was a loud noise.
The tire of Jerry’s car had blown out. Fortunately, the driver was skilled and reacted quickly to hold onto the steering wheel, but it was still too late to brake and the car went straight into the bushes by the roadside.
"Ouch..."
Jerry’s head slammed into the glass.
Damn it.
Even the heavens were bullying him.
Jerry’s anger reached new heights again.
"This damn weather, this damn car, this damn mining area, this damn Chi..." As he opened the door, Jerry’s mouth didn’t stop for a moment and he felt even worse as the rain drenched him.
His car stopped.
The cars behind naturally stopped as well.
Jerry and Tuoyin got out of the car.
They were about to switch to another car.
The scene before them left them stunned.
In their field of vision.
Blood flowers started blooming on the chests of his subordinates. Because the enemy’s shooting was so rapid, his men had no time to react. In just over six seconds, there were no standing men visible.
In the end.
Jerry only felt a pain in his chest.
His brain began to lose the ability to think, and turning his head, he saw Tuoyin beside him in the same condition, but his first thought was not that the mine had moved against them, he did not believe the Chinese man had the nerve.
It must be a vendetta.
After all these years.
Having killed so many people.
It was expected to be revenged.
Just didn’t expect it to come so quickly... In just a few seconds, Jerry had breathed his last. What he didn’t know was that various methods of revenge discussed in the car had led to this deadly disaster.
In Tang Qing’s words.
Since you can’t swallow this grievance... I’ll help you swallow it.
These men with blood on their hands.
Tang Qing had no sympathy for them.
...
Back at the courtyard.
Xia Yuxing’s heart was still pounding.
Not from nervousness.
But from the thrill.
It was just a pity that due to the mining area’s orders, they weren’t allowed to talk about today’s events to outsiders, he could guess the reason—it was all about avoiding giving others something to criticize, especially being in an African country.
"We definitely need to have a drink tonight, to calm the nerves," Sha Li said.
"Let’s go."
After changing clothes.
Carrying umbrellas.
They headed to the cafeteria, straight to the second-floor buffet as they had planned with Shi Yong beforehand, not letting him pay when they arrived earlier.
"Brother Shi, thank you for today," Xia Yuxing raised his glass, drinking beer, which nobody was limited to just one bottle per day; no accumulative consumption was allowed, those were the rules here.
"Really, too impressive."
"..."
Shi Yong also raised his beer glass and clinked it with theirs, he didn’t dare to drink it in large gulps as it would be gone in just a few sips, although he could drink from others’ glasses, he had his self-discipline.
"Do you have many more base stations?" Shi Yong asked.
"If we upgrade at today’s pace, two days would be enough to complete them, but for constructing new ones, it would take at least ten more days. Mainly because the construction process can’t be sped up," Xia Yuxing explained.
"So about ten days then, what about after that?" Shi Yong asked again.
Xia Yuxing shook his head.
"I don’t know, we’re just cogs, moved wherever needed, depends on the company’s operations. Honestly, this is my favorite place since coming to Africa, because of you guys."
Shi Yong smiled faintly.
He felt the same.
Countries in Africa with stable situations could be counted on one hand, being able to establish such a huge and safe place here, after staying for a long time, you wouldn’t want to leave.
There was food and drink.
High wages and good treatment.
And there was the indulgence of handling various weapons.
Shi Yong felt lucky to have joined this company.
...
The next two days.
Everything went smoothly.
They completed tasks at an unbelievably fast pace every day, and the Huawei subsidiary was so impressed that after Xia Yuxing had explained once, they even granted them a day’s holiday.
After resting for a day.
They got busy again.
If it were somewhere else.
If they went to construct, the locals would definitely pose a threat to hiring locals for help, causing trouble or hindering normal operations if they weren’t hired, but here, Xia Yuxing witnessed a different scenario.
That was.
They went.
People helped, but staunchly refused to take money.
Fielding asked about it, and it turned out to still be due to the mining area’s influence; the local tribes had long established cooperative relationships with the mining area. Seeing the Security Department’s vehicles nearby, they volunteered to help without payment.
Even if the helpers wanted to charge.
The tribal chiefs benefiting significantly wouldn’t agree.
And so.
Their project progressed with an unexpectedly smooth finish, and when the last base station was completed, it was time for them to leave. Reluctance spread among the team.
It was also during this time and through interaction with Shi Yong.
That Xia Yuxing abandoned the idea of changing jobs.
Because the mine didn’t hire communications engineers, the communications work was a part-time job for their Security Department, and to enter the Security Department, one had to meet certain criteria, their group of computer techs obviously didn’t qualify.
At the gate of the small courtyard.
Having packed everything.
"Stay safe, be careful," Shi Yong and Xia Yuxing said their goodbyes.
"Let’s meet again when there’s a chance."
"Sure."
After bidding farewell to Shi Yong.
Xia Yuxing’s convoy hit the road, returning along the same route to Nan Ji Province, their next destination was a province with decent security. After this job, they would return to their country for the Spring Festival.
On the way back. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
Twenty kilometers away from the mining area, they saw another long convoy, led by familiar Hummers, heading toward the mining area, but unexpectedly followed by a string of Congo Gold military vehicles.
In between, there were about a dozen high-end passenger cars, each bearing the Congo Gold national flag.
Seeing this.
Sha Li hurriedly said, "What’s going on, so many Congo Gold soldiers?"
He was somewhat afraid that these people might cause harm to the mining area, this was Africa, after all, where rules were set by the ruling class of that country, these people could be unpredictable and might harbor ill intentions.
"I don’t know," Xia Yuxing shook his head.
"Should we call big brother Shi?" Sha Li suggested.
"Alright."
Xia Yuxing took out his mobile phone and called Shi Yong.
After talking for a bit.
He sighed in relief.
Easily saying.
"It’s nothing bad, the steel factory started production, and two more large factories are being built, all part of the achievements of the current President of Congo-Kinshasa. This time he’s here to inspect and attend the foundation-laying ceremonies of the two factories."
Sha Li praised, "I see, impressive."
"Yes."
The president coming in person showed the importance he placed on it.
