Chapter 838: Chapter 642: Helping Out
After leaving the office, Li Ruiqi’s smile gradually faded from his face, and his expression beca very serious.
Actually, even if Su Mo left the whole test paper blank, it wouldn’t matter. The truly important thing in this assessnt is the answer to the last question.
That answer is the most crucial.
—————————–
On the other side, Su Mo left the S District in a light-hearted mood, heading towards the Upper City District.
No matter how the exam went, this matter is finally settled.
He can go back and have a good rest.
To put it bluntly, he’s been dead tired these past few days, getting less than five hours of sleep a day.
After a long ti, Su Mo returned ho, opened the door, and was slightly stunned.
He saw a pair of shoes placed on the shoe cabinet at the door.
Su Mo looked up and saw that Qian Chengxue’s door was open, indicating she was ho.
So he closed his door and walked towards Qian Chengxue’s room, calling out.
“Sister Xue?”
However, Su Mo’s calling received no response.
Curiously, Su Mo walked to the doorway and saw Qian Chengxue had changed into a white pajama, her silver hair flowing naturally, sitting at the desk with a pen in her right hand, deeply engrossed in calculating sothing.
Her lips moved slightly from ti to ti, uttering a few words.
“Thunder Exploration Company offers a price of 450,000 Star Coins, with additional fees for special terrain or circumstances, the top limit is not capped. Though the quality of work is guaranteed, the price is still too high.”
“Black River Exploration Company offers a price of 400,000 Star Coins, a flat fee covering all work, but their reputation isn’t particularly good, and the quality of work is lacking.”
….
Su Mo placed his hand on the doorfra and knocked!
Knock knock~
Hearing the sound, Qian Chengxue snapped back to reality, turned her head to look behind her, and upon seeing Su Mo, a faint smile appeared on her face.
“You’re back.”
“Yeah, just finished the exam, what are you doing?”
Su Mo walked over and asked with a smile.
Qian Chengxue showed a slight helpless smile and said to Su Mo, “I’m calculating the cost of hiring a mining team, figuring out which options are more economical.”
“Your resource point hasn’t been mined yet?”
Su Mo imdiately understood what was going on.
“Not yet, I’ve been surveying on site lately, and with a bit of bad luck, the chosen resource point has a complex terrain, making it relatively difficult to mine. However, it does boast a relatively rich mineral content. But now mining has beco a big problem since recently, the market for mining teams has skyrocketed, and those I’ve found aren’t ideal. Either they’re not skilled enough, or the price is too high.”
Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo with so distress, actually, she could approach the Ye Family, but if she did that, the resources would definitely be divided by them with almost nothing left.
So she can only hire externally, but the prices have always been hard to negotiate.
“Let help you.”
Su Mo said with a smile.
“Your side is settled?”
Qian Chengxue was slightly taken aback and asked.
“All settled, so I don’t have anything particularly pressing right now. Let think about how to mine at the lowest cost.”
Su Mo nodded in response.
Carefully pondering for a mont, Su Mo realized it would be ideal to have Sun Duoxiang and Xiao Wen handle this. But the issue was, Xiao Wen and Sun Duoxiang were busy processing and handling his spoils.
Getting Mo Baoke to handle it wouldn’t be too big of a problem in terms of ability.
However, he’d certainly skim off quite a bit personally, not because Mo Baoke intends to be greedy, but because his subordinates are just like that.
There’s a saying, ‘It’s easier to change mountains and rivers than to alter one’s nature.’
This mining point is sothing Qian Chengxue painstakingly acquired, and Su Mo doesn’t desire to ss things up.
Qian Chengxue, seeing Su Mo seriously contemplating, felt her heart warm.
Su Mo suddenly noticed Qian Chengxue looking at him, which made him inexplicably nervous.
“Sister Xue, conservatively, how much valuable resource can your mine produce?”
“Not sure, based on current surveys, it’s estimated to be in the millions, but more might be produced.”
Qian Chengxue explained.
After hearing this, Su Mo’s expression beca a bit peculiar.
Knowing that he has already given away more than sixty million Star Coins.
Thinking of this, Su Mo inexplicably felt a bit inadequate, but fortunately, Qian Chengxue seed to have completely forgotten about asking about the profitability of Su Mo’s mining operation on his side.
And he also knew that Qian Chengxue was relatively strong-minded and didn’t want to discourage her too much.
Su Mo organized his thoughts and said, “Actually, I think hiring a professional mining team is more appropriate; even if it’s a bit pricey, at least it avoids many hassles and headaches.”
“I think so as well, but the better mining teams, not only do they charge high fees, but they also require supplent agreents and additional fees. I’ve tried to negotiate with them several tis, but they refuse to budge.”
Qian Chengxue shook her head helplessly.
“Let’s do this, give a copy of the mines data, and leave the task of finding a mining operation team to . I’ll help you choose a cost-effective team.”
Su Mo volunteered.
“I’ll definitely trust you, but we shouldn’t leave soone to handle this alone. How about this, we’ll both search.”
Qian Chengxue had great confidence in Su Mo’s abilities.
“Okay!”
Su Mo replied with a smile.
Just then, Qian Chengxue’s phone vibrated, and a ssage popped up.
She glanced at it and then said to Su Mo, “Soone from Thunder Exploration Company has invited to a tea restaurant in the Central District for a eting. I guess I must go. Frankly, I am satisfied with this exploration company in all aspects, be it reputation or ability. The only problem is the additional fees.”
“Yeah, sure. Go ahead and talk to them first. If it doesn’t work out, don’t worry, I’ll inform you right away if I find anything from my side too.”
Su Mo said to Qian Chengxue.
“Alright, I’ll change my clothes.”
Qian Chengxue nodded.
Not long after, Su Mo was wandering the streets alone.
He too was a bit troubled, wondering where to find a reliable exploration company at the mont?
Realistically, if he tried, he could find soone.
But the issue is everyone is busy, and it’s inappropriate to bother others at this critical mont.
If it can be solved with money, then solve it with money.
Just then, Su Mo’s eyes lit up with an idea, and he imdiately headed towards the Central District.
…..
In the tea restaurant.
A rugged man with stubble on his face and a voluptuous woman with flaxen hair were waiting.
These two were Anfrelis and Xin Ya, the responsible persons from Thunder Exploration Company.
Anfrelis, with furrowed brows, said, “Let’s see if we can secure this business deal today. If not, it’s going to be a problem. Decent jobs are hard to find now.”
“The issue is, the environnt for site number C181 is very rough, not to ntion the client’s mine is hard to extract. If we don’t supplent, we risk unavoidable losses; the risk is quite significant.”
Xin Ya was also stressed.
“I know, but as far as I know, there are plenty of teams interested in taking on her job.”
Anfrelis was well aware of the risks involved.
