Chapter 203: Take office
Charles and Sister Wright talked until they fell asleep, and they didn't wake up until the next morning when they woke up with their wake-up trumpets.
"What the hell are you doing?" said Elizabeth, speechless, looking at the three guys in front of her.
Yesterday at dinner, they were just building a factory, but after the night, a group company with two subsidiaries and a company in preparation was created by them. Do they want to wear the title of a company manager for each person?
"Forget it!" said Elizabeth to Sister Wright, shaking her head helplessly, "I'll find someone to take you to the formalities when I'm done with breakfast, and then I'll step up my work." ”
Then she said to Charles, "Wait until you're done with breakfast, you and I have a task for you." ”
After breakfast, Charles followed Elizabeth into the office.
I saw a blackboard in the office, and the map on the blackboard was covered with dense red dots, and in the lower left corner of the map were written "Distribution Map of Strongholds in the Southern Theater" and "Top Secret".
The red dots line the banks of the rivers, almost blocking them. It can be seen that this is a measure taken in response to the last time the fish-man used the river to dive into the hinterland of the elves.
Elizabeth pointed to the map and said to Charles: "Last night the Queen received news that she had agreed to my plan to build a surveillance and defense base along the river. ”
Charles nodded, he knew it. After the battle that night, Elizabeth arranged for the staff to make this plan, which was regarded as a reinforcement of the "elastic cage defense tactics".
Elizabeth continued, "In order to build so many strongholds as quickly as possible, we decided to turn to the Forge Temple for help and use concrete to build these strongholds. ”
Charles was a little surprised and said, "It's a big project." ”
"yes, time is tight. "So I decided to set up a committee for monitoring and defending the construction of the Southern Theater of Operations along the river to deal with this matter, and you will be the chairman of the committee." ”
Charles was stunned, "Why me?"
Elizabeth gritted her teeth and said, "Because you have face on the side of the dwarves, for your sake, they won't slaughter so ruthlessly." ”
It can be seen that Elizabeth has suffered a lot at the hands of the dwarves.
Charles pursed his lips, it seemed that he was a mascot, and his main role was to say when negotiating with the dwarves: "Please give me face." "And the specific affairs will be presided over by a deputy deputy.
However, there are still many questions about this matter, and Charles, whose construction dog's soul is burning, asked: "Commander, do we need to transport all the concrete and steel bars for our base from the Forging Holy Land? ”
Charles knew that these two key materials were not produced on the elven side.
"I can't help it. Elizabeth spread her hands, "I asked, your steel bar is okay, but the dwarf said that we don't have raw materials for concrete production here." ”
As a result, Charles said "hehe" twice, obviously the dwarf is not honest.
"Huh?" Elizabeth was keenly aware of Charles's reaction, and she said, "If you're sure, let the dwarves come here and invest in the factory." ”
Taking this opportunity to introduce industries that fill the gap in the country, Elizabeth will naturally not miss it.
"I'll try. Charles didn't dare to pack tickets, after all, it was people's core technology.
Although Charles knew how to get cement in theory, it didn't mean that he would be able to help the elves get it out in a short time. It's like tomato scrambled eggs, he knows what ingredients to use and how to fry them, but if you ask him to make the iron pan and shovel used to make tomato scrambled eggs, it's hard for him.
At this time, Charles saw that the door to the office was open, he frowned, walked over and closed the door, and then returned to Elizabeth's side.
He asked Elizabeth in a low voice, "Sister, do you have any other considerations for arranging such a place for me?"
Although he made a little contribution to someone a while ago, he thought that these were not enough for him to sit in such a lucrative position.
Elizabeth did not answer, but habitually touched his head.
Charles naturally knew that Elizabeth hadn't asked herself to go to her bedroom at three o'clock tonight, she just didn't want to answer.
Since the office door was open just now, and the elves had good ears, many elves outside the door knew about Charles's new appointment, the person everyone talked about in recent days.
Now many elves know that this Charles will be "a weapon of decisive battle against the dwarves".
Although it was a mascot, Charles still had a small office of his own according to the process, and the sign of "Riverside Monitoring and Defense Engineering Construction Committee" was also hung up.
Just as Charles was thinking about how to fish, an elf knocked on the office door.
Elizabeth had just shown Charles the list of members and information of the newly formed department, and he recognized it as Frederick Dent, a "universal tool" who could ask him to do anything.
Young Frederick walked into the office and said to Charles, who was too young, "Take a seat, and in ten minutes there will be the first meeting in the conference room on the third floor." ”
Charles said "oh", he still needed to show his face at the first meeting. In the future, whether you participate or not depends on your mood, no one cares anyway.
As soon as Charles went out, he saw a middle-aged elf coming out of the opposite office, and his appearance was very similar to Frederick.
Charles politely greeted him before he greeted him, "Hello, Lord Edward Dent, I'm going to trouble you next." ”
Charles has a lot of respect for the actual leader at work, as well as the old-timers in the construction industry.
In the year Charles traveled, Edward Dent was not finished when he started to engage in architecture.
Edward Dent, with his big back and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, said noncommittally: "Hello, Your Excellency Charles McCaden. It's all about work, there's nothing that doesn't bother. ”
When Frederick pushed open the door to the conference room, he found that it was already full of elves, and all the members of the committee were present, who watched Charles and Edward enter the room and take their seats.
Charles looked around the room and saw that everyone was looking at him, too.
"The first plenary meeting of the Committee for Monitoring and Defence Works along the River is now open, and will be chaired by Vice-Chairman Edward Dent," he said. ”
Then Charles began to fish. He kind of regretted that he hadn't come in with a mask in the first place, otherwise he would have been able to sit there and sleep.
However, he soon found himself unable to sleep even with the mask on, for after Edward's polite opening remarks, the elves present began to exchange ideas enthusiastically.
Quarrels at construction site meetings are something that someone has experienced a lot in their previous life, and it is common to slap the table or something over some issues. After he slapped his hand once, he changed to carrying a can of Red Bull with him every time he had a meeting, and the Red Bull can smashed the table with great momentum without hurting his hands.
But it was the first time he had seen the elf in front of him who had suddenly entered a state of euphoria, and the content of the quarrel ranged from the main issues to the details.
There were objections to every issue, and as a result, there was no consensus.
Oh, except for the lunch meal.
At first, Charles thought that Edward would solve the problems after everyone had exposed them, but Edward soon joined the argument at the expense of the end.
And he's the most noisy, and Charles is afraid that he'll solve the genie who raised the problem before he solves it.
Crucially, there was a lot of content in their quarrels that Charles's thought was unnecessary. Everyone is Party A's father, so there's no need to help think about things like Party B's towels and toothbrushes, right?
Charles tilted his head and asked Frederick, who was recording the meeting, "That's how you all have meetings?"
Frederick, who was struggling to write, nodded.
This scene can be regarded as subverting the image of the elf in Charles's mind, how could there be so many things when he and Sister Wright discussed things yesterday, they all reached a consensus in three or two clicks.
Now Charles really admires the construction peers of the elves, no wonder it took so long to build the railway. The British built railways in India, and it took more than 70 years to build more than 60,000 kilometers in 1853.
He looked out the window at the time, there was still an hour before dinner, and the elves here were still arguing over the appearance of the colony. Some said that it would be built like a cylinder, and some said that it was necessary to repair a fortress. Both sides make sense anyway.
It's also thanks to the strong body of the elves, and they still have the same spirit as they did when the meeting began. And Charles has already made a few trips to the bathroom today, and none of these elves flinched.
Charles sighed, it seemed that he was going to reach a consensus, he was already full of children and grandchildren.
"It can't go on like this. Charles thought, "Maybe that's why the master put me in this position?"
So he slapped the table with a "bang", and the elves' hearts were shocked, and the quarrel suddenly stopped.
Charles said to them, "Guys, give me face. ”
