After the busiest time of the afternoon, Mawor finished cleaning up the tavern and found that there were no customers. After thinking about it, he closed the door and decided to give himself an afternoon break.
After leaving the tavern, he went straight to the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce's construction site.
His little sister had been worried about his nephew and had asked him several times, asking him to help her investigate the situation of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce. That way, his nephew would have a chance to enter this company and obtain a high salary, so of course old man Mawor had to put in a bit more effort.
When he arrived at the construction site, he found that it was just as the three people had said. The entire construction site was on holiday. Apart from a few workers, the rest of the workers had disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the scorching sun above his head, Old Man Mawor guessed that the workers were sleeping during the holidays. He looked around and locked his eyes on the workers on duty.
Old man Mawor walked over and took out the wine and dishes that he had already prepared. He wanted to get closer to them and find out more about the situation, but he was sternly rejected by the workers.
"Sorry, according to the rules, we can't drink during working hours. We appreciate your kind intentions."
The dark faced worker seemed to be the leader of the workers. Since he didn't accept, the other workers didn't say a word.
"This … I specially brought it here. I'm afraid it's not good to bring it back …"
The dark faced worker chuckled, "Old man, if you want to find out something, you can go directly to the supervisor.
There … "The dark faced worker pointed to the other side of the construction site.
"Do you see? The supervisor is there. You can ask him directly. He'll definitely know more than us."
Old man Mawor looked in the direction that he was pointing at and found a man in the same uniform standing in the distance. He seemed to be looking at the road in the distance and waiting for something.
"He's your supervisor?" Old man Mawor hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth and walking over to the supervisor.
When he got closer, old man Mawor found that this man was indeed different from the other workers.
Although he was wearing the same uniform, his uniform was clearly a lot cleaner. There wasn't much mud on his face either. It could be seen that he didn't normally work on the construction site.
Hearing the sound of Old Man Mavor approaching, the man turned his head and glanced at Old Man Mavor. When he saw the dishes in Old Man Mavor's hands, he frowned slightly.
"Dad, what can I do for you?"
This man, who should be the supervisor, was obviously more dignified, but his tone was very gentle and polite, which made Mawor's father feel more at ease.
After chatting for a while, Old Man Mawor explained his intentions.
The answer given by the supervisor who called himself Gnar was similar to the answer given by the previous three workers, but the timing was more detailed.
According to him, the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce would only consider recruiting local workers after a month, so he hoped that Father Mawor could wait patiently.
"Don't worry, as long as your nephew's physique is good enough, he has strength, and there's nothing wrong with him, we can recruit him.
As for the technical problems, I can slowly teach him at work. "
Manager Gnar's answer made old man Mawor feel relieved.
When they were about to leave, old man Mawor couldn't help but ask curiously, "Excuse me … Who is the important person who is going to leave today?
He can actually make you stop work for half a day to wait for him. "
Manager Gnar revealed a faint smile and shook his head, "I'm sorry, this involves some secrets, so it isn't convenient to disclose."
"Oh ….." Old man Mawor could only helplessly nod and leave.
Watching old man Mawor leave, as well as the wine bottle and the bag of beef in his hand, manager Gnar couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.
Although he didn't think that ambassador Hakanin was going to pass through this place was a secret, out of caution, he couldn't casually disclose this information to an outsider who wasn't related to this.
As for the matter of recruiting workers that old man Mawor asked about, manager Gnar was actually more anxious than him.
They had been laying this road in the Norton Duchy for three months and up until now, they had only laid down fifty kilometers. This efficiency was without a doubt very low.
The reason for this low efficiency, other than being in the Norton Duchy where it took time to transport the materials needed to lay the road, the main problem was that they didn't have enough manpower.
Since they saw the Lampari Kingdom's economy soar, the surrounding countries all deeply understood the importance of building roads to a country's economic growth. So the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce had received countless orders from the surrounding countries to build roads, causing the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce's construction team to be busy all year round.
Because the Norton Duchy and the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce had just started cooperating, the construction team they sent wasn't that big. There were less than a hundred workers, so naturally they were a bit stretched.
If the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce could reach an agreement with the Norton Duchy, allowing the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce to recruit local workers, it would be fine. But because this was their first cooperation, the Norton Duchy was very cautious. They spent several months without making a decision, so manager Gnar could only rely on the construction team to complete the work.
Fortunately, according to the latest news, President Cruise had already personally met with Duke Norton and made great progress in the negotiations.
If there were no accidents, the Norton Duchy should be able to reach an agreement with the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce in a month's time.
At that time, the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce would be able to recruit local workers to assist in the work.
Although the newly recruited workers wouldn't be able to complete a lot of work that required a certain amount of technical content, they could reduce the workload of the skilled workers in the construction team and allow them to focus on the main technical work. Naturally, this would greatly increase the efficiency of the road paving.
"It's already so difficult to cooperate with the small Norton Duchy. If we cooperate with the Kandla Empire, wouldn't it be even more difficult?"
Manager Gnar frowned as he thought about these problems while continuing to look at the road that had already been repaired.
After about half an hour, a black dot appeared at the end of the road and a moment later, it turned into a huge convoy.
Feeling the rumbling sound of wheels rolling on the road, Manager Gnar was greatly surprised.
Although he had already heard that ambassador Hakanin would bring back many things when he returned to the Kandla Empire, he never would have thought that ambassador Hakanin would bring a motorcade of large transport Magic Cars!
Looking at the pure black Magic Sedan in front of the motorcade, manager Gnar was a bit speechless.
This ambassador Hakanin seemed like he was used to driving in the Kingdom of Ruhr, he never thought that other places would have smooth roads like the Kingdom of Ruhr, allowing the Magic Sedan to drive through.
For example, in the Norton Duchy, even if they were paving the road that was known as the best road in the Norton Duchy, the road condition was still very bad.
Even if the Magic Sedan could drive on it, it would definitely be very bumpy.
Rather it was the large transport Magic Cars with their heavy bodies and large tires that didn't have any problems driving on this bumpy road.
After a while, the leading Magic Sedan drove to the end of the road that had already been repaired and stopped in front of manager Gnar.
The door opened and the fat ambassador Hakanin struggled to get out of the driver's seat. In the passenger seat beside him, the vice chairman of the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce Riley came out.
"Greetings to sir ambassador."
No matter how much he criticized in his heart, manager Gnar still respectfully gave ambassador Hakanin a bow before turning to vice chairman Riley.
"Gnar, how is the project going?" Vice chairman Riley asked.
"It's going smoothly.
But we don't have enough people, so we can't speed it up. "Manager Gnar honestly replied.
"Un, there's no need to rush. Sir chairman said that the Norton Duchy isn't in a rush to paving this road, so we don't need to rush either."
Vice chairman Riley turned to look at manager Riley, "Sir ambassador, if the Kandla Empire is willing to give our company enough support, our company can pave this road much faster.
As long as you have a request, it isn't a problem to pave a hundred kilometers a month. "
Ambassador Hakanin nodded, not saying anything.
He had returned to the Kandla Empire this time mainly to bring back the large amount of household magic machines he had obtained from the New Flyer.
As long as he could sell these household magic machines, he would be able to earn a large profit of at least two hundred thousand gold coins.
Compared to this, how could he care about a small matter like how fast the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce could pave the road?
Thinking of the New Flyer, ambassador Hakanin suddenly thought of a problem. He looked around and doubtfully asked, "Didn't I hear that the New Flyer was investing in the Norton Duchy?
Why haven't I seen the New Flyer symbol on the road? "
Vice chairman Riley shook his head and said, "Sir ambassador, I'm afraid the information you received is no longer valid.
Because of the changes that happened with the New Flyer, the Norton Duchy has already canceled their cooperation with the New Flyer.
According to what I know, the Norton Duchy is planning to cooperate with several companies in the Lampari Kingdom that also produce magic machines, inviting them to invest. "
"Hei, what is the Norton Duchy thinking?
They aren't cooperating with the New Flyer and are looking for other companies, isn't this asking for trouble? "Ambassador Hakanin curled his lips with a look of disdain.
"I think that Duke Norton's brain has suddenly gone bad, right?"
Vice chairman Lys and manager Gnar looked at each other with smiles. After this ambassador Hakanin received benefits from the New Flyer, he really was thinking about the New Flyer.
Perhaps if the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce wanted to cooperate with the Kandla Empire, they should invest more in ambassador Hakanin.
