The new army mobilized 800 men and guns, and Li Cunzhi had to add 800 new soldiers.

In order to strengthen the jurisdiction over the road construction and security work, Chen Tianhua applied to his father-in-law Li Cunzhi to transfer the deacon Sun Yong and the battalion officer of the Wuxing garrison Li Xinghong to the headquarters and serve as the chief and deputy director of the security department respectively.

In this way, Chen Tianhua's project progress, project quality, and project budget are all within control, and he has a smile on his face.

Some people laugh and others cry. The immediate interests of those parasites have been severely impacted, and the chain of interests has been ruthlessly cut off.

…

On the third floor of the headquarters building, there is the commander's office.

Chen Tianhua was sitting upright on the high-back Taishi chair behind his desk, wearing a flower-feather hat, wearing casual clothes for a fourth-grade civil servant, and soft-soled official boots.

Standing in front of the desk were the Changxing County Magistrate and the County Lieutenant, who were making work reports to the commander.

"Sir, I spent a lot of effort to get these migrant workers to come from door to door in every town and village. Now they are no longer needed. Those foremen have rebelled and demanded severance pay."

"Yes, these people all went to the county government office to sit in meditation."

"Many foremen are gang leaders from Changxing, Wuxing and other places. We can't afford to cause trouble like this."

The county magistrate and the county lieutenant sang together and complained to Chen Tianhua.

"It's not that migrant workers are unnecessary. Now that we have a professional road construction team, we let them go to the lumberyard and gravel pit. However, they must be paid on a piece-by-piece basis, and they are no longer allowed to be paid on a per-person basis by the contractor." Chen Tianhua opened the paper fan in his hand and fanned it.

Liangbian replied.

"This will make the contractor even more reluctant to work."

"Damn! What's so scary if the contractor doesn't work? This is unreasonable in itself. This is called exploitation and charging a head tax! I firmly object to this and will announce that all migrant workers who are willing to stay will go to the lumberyard or gravel pit.

When you report to work, you will be paid according to your work. The more you work, the more you will get, and the wages will be paid directly to the migrant workers on a monthly basis." Chen Tianhua's eyes widened in anger and he yelled loudly.

"But sir, what should we do if those gang leaders, town security chiefs, and village chiefs want to cause trouble? Our county government can't stand the trouble."

"By the way, they also threatened to come to the headquarters compound for a sit-in."

Facing these two lower-level officials, they were obviously wearing jumpsuits with the foremen, because they also had a share of the head tax of the foremen.

Chen Tianhua established a road construction engineering company, which actually cut off the financial resources of these people.

"Hmph, go back and tell these people that if they dare to come to the headquarters to cause trouble, they will be punished as sabotaging government projects and committing treason. They should all go down." Chen Tianhua waved his hand and issued an order to expel guests.

Since he established a construction team of 20,000 people, he is now confident. The migrant workers can work whether they like it or not, but they must follow his rules, otherwise they will get out.

The county magistrate and the county lieutenant looked at each other and walked out of the headquarters compound in disgrace. They had to go back to meet with those people to discuss.

Looking at their backs as they left the compound, Chen Tianhua, who was standing on the corridor balcony, turned to secretary Sha Ling beside him and said:

"Inform all the engineering departments and points along the route to be more vigilant from now on to prevent these foremen and bandits from causing trouble."

"I understand." Sha Ling was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something. She leaned closer and whispered:

"Young Master, I heard that the five hundred road guards under Shaler were very dissatisfied with your cancellation of cooperation. These are people from the Hongmen Zhongyi Hall. Most of them usually follow Peng Zuo's brothers. You have smashed them now.

Their jobs, these days, maybe tonight, they are ready to take revenge."

This news was provided very timely.

It is estimated that Shale disclosed it to Sha Ling on purpose, for no other reason than that Shale had a conflict with Peng Zuo of Zhongyi Hall, and he was eager to let Chen Tianhua punish Peng Zuo and others.

Chen Tianhua stroked his chin beard with his hand and said: "First of all, please follow my previous instructions and ask the post team to notify the construction sites. By the way, call up the officers Sun Yong, Ian, and Xu Yunyuan."

"Yes." Sha Ling responded and left.

After a while, Ian, Sun Yong and Xu Yunyuan came to his office one after another. Chen Tianhua reported the contents of the conversation with the county magistrate and county lieutenant just now, and then told the news revealed by Sha Ling.

"Fuck, do the security team want to rebel?" Ian was furious after hearing this. As a British man, he would not allow the tragedy of the Charlie incident to happen again.

"No, no, don't get excited Ian. These people are temporarily hired by the security team. Strictly speaking, they are no longer members of the Meishan Town security team." Chen Tianhua quickly explained that he did not want to magnify this matter.

Sun Yong naturally understood Chen Tianhua's intention and was not surprised. He smiled and said:

"I've also noticed that some guys are sneaky. They've been keeping an eye on us these past few days, but they've also been staring at Miss Xu and other women. I guess they're going to cause trouble tonight. How far do you want us to deal with it?"

To what extent it is handled is very meaningful.

In fact, in the command team, even the women who are responsible for translators and nurses are not easily dealt with by this group of rubbish.

Xu Yunyuan and her two assistants also learned several moves of judo in Shanghai.

Military doctor Aina is said to be from the British Special Forces, and the nurses she brings are also very skilled.

Chen Tianhua thought for a while and said:

"Don't make it bloody the first time. You have to give the mayor Shaler some face. Surrender and lose the ability to resist."

Sun Yong nodded and said, "I will convey this request immediately."

Losing the ability to resist is also meaningful. Broken arms and legs are also okay, as long as you are alive.

…

That night, it was quiet.

In the hot weather, only the cicadas on the trees were chirping "squeaking..."

When do people let their guard down the most?

This question seems a bit naive. Most people think that of course it is in the dead of night, when people are sleeping soundly in the middle of the night!

But the answer is wrong!

In the dead of night, people have not yet reached the level of complete sleep.

The most relaxing time is exactly the two hours before dawn.

This is common sense in the military.

No matter how late he sleeps, Chen Tianhua will get up early every day to do morning exercises and always maintain his previous habit.

Because he had something on his mind, he went to bed very early last night and lay down to sleep at around nine o'clock.

Therefore, I woke up at around three o'clock in the morning. This is the result of many years of special training.

The biological clock works very well for a special person like him. He will wake up when he wants to, without the need for an alarm.

Ten minutes later, there was a slight sound of footsteps in his ears. He sat up and opened his eyes.

Although separated by several wooden walls, the scene outside is still clearly visible in the line of sight, like a combination of X-ray and infrared thermal imaging.
