This year, Roman's construction company has contracted the construction of all Russian consulates and embassies abroad, and projects in some countries have already started.

The commercial representative office in China has two residential apartment buildings that need to be completely renovated, which is currently the largest project of the Russian embassy and the one that worries Roman the most.

Unlike our Chinese construction companies, Roman's construction company basically uses people from the host country, except for the management. As Mr. Li said, this makes it more difficult to ensure the quality of the project and the management of personnel. Even so, Roman thought it was more economical to use local workers than Russian workers!

Valery was the person personally recommended by the Russian ambassador to Roman to be responsible for the construction of the project here.

As Valery explains, he has been working in infrastructure at the Russian Embassy in Beijing for almost 20 years, and he is not only an expert in construction, but also very familiar with Chinese construction companies and even the Chinese building materials market.

Although Valery has a stubborn personality and a short temper common to Russians, he is serious and conscientious about his work, and all the projects he is responsible for can be delivered on time with quality and quantity, so Valery is really the best person to be in charge of this project.

On Monday, the construction site was full of people, and the construction site was finally in full swing!

Roman and Valery watched as Commander Lee directed the workers busily carrying materials for various construction tools. While chatting happily.

A while. Mr. Li's young assistant came over, and he asked Valery if he had any masks, and their workers didn't have enough masks to dig the wall. Valery did not understand the assistant's words for a moment. I told him that the workers didn't have enough masks and that if there were spare ones here, I could give them several.

Valery went with his assistant to get the mask. Roman handed me a large envelope, and I saw a thick stack of dollars wrapped in a piece of paper. Roman said, here is the itinerary and cost of Sanya, you see Tony and leave it to him.

I put the envelope away, Valery returned, and I heard him talking to Roman about what he could do to get out of the delayed schedule.

After a while, Tony, who was dressed in casual clothes, also came over, and I saw him meet Mr. Li in the corridor and shook his hand with a smile.

Tony came up to us and congratulated Roman and Valery on the start of the project with a smile on his face.

Valery agreed, and went over to the wallboard to check the schedule; Roman laughed and told Tony that he could be relieved to be in Moscow this time......

Tony saw standing in front of the window looking at the scenery, I walked over and asked with a smile:

- "Linna, the scenery here is nice, isn't it?" ”

- "Yes, I didn't expect to see that artificial lake here!" Oh, here's the program schedule for your trip to Sanya, do you see if there's anything else that needs to be modified? "I handed the envelope to Tony.

Tony opened the envelope and looked at it, then carefully slipped it into the inside pocket of his jacket. With a satisfied smile on his face, he asked me:

- "Lina, are you going back to Moscow with Roman?" In the future, how can I contact you if I go to Moscow? ”

- "I will not return to Moscow, I will stay in Beijing." I said

- "Oh? Will you be here to work with us? Tony's tone was surprised.

- "I never thought about this! I may not be able to do your job here. I said

- "How so? I don't think we would have delayed the construction in vain if you had come to the embassy early. Tony said.

Glancing at Tony's departing back, Valery snorted through his nose.

Roman shook his head helplessly when he saw Valery's expression.

At this time, Valery invited us to the conference room, and after everyone was seated, he said to Roman with a serious expression:

- "Roman, I have a request, can you get Lena to stay and help me?" ”

Roman listened to his words, looked at me uncertainly, and did not answer.

Valery continued:

- "Roman, don't be stingy! You can give Lina as much as she wants, I promise, if you give her a million, she will earn you back 10 million! I really need Lina here, and I think she's the only one who can deal with that Tony. To be honest, I know my temper when I meet Tony...... Alas! I can't hold back the fire. Roman, I don't want to mess up your affairs here. You'll have to find a way to keep Lina! ”

Roman looked at me, still hesitating.

At this point, Valery turned to me and asked:

- "Linna, how about you help me here?" I don't ask for help yet. This time, I'm an old man, please! I also rent you an apartment in the apartment building where I live, and every day you can take my car to work together. The Russian staff here have staff meals, we can eat Russian food here, by the way, if you are not used to eating, you can also order Chinese food outside...... What more could you ask for? ”

Working in Beijing has always been a longing thing for me, and I've always been frustrated that I haven't been able to find a job here.

To be honest, I was a little desperate to be able to work in Beijing!

When I was in Baikal, I even thought about going to Moscow again to find a job.

However, at this moment I began to hesitate about Valery's suggestion!

Thinking of what happened to the four translators that Mr. Li said, I don't have confidence in working here. I don't know much about architecture, I've never worked as an engineering translator, and I don't think I'm dealing with a field I've never set foot in, but considering that in the future, it will be enough to discourage me from facing Tony, who is a headache for everyone! I'm worried that I might be disappointed by Valery's expectations of myself.

I told them about my concerns. After hearing this, Valery said:

- "Linna, those technical terms are not a big deal, I can teach you, I believe these are not obstacles to you. You're my assistant, don't worry, I won't let Tony bully you. ”

Looking at Valery's sincere eyes, I was moved and said:

- "If you really don't dislike my unprofessionalism, I want to learn from you. I also hope to have the opportunity to develop my own abilities in this area! ”

- "Great! Valery! Hahaha...... You're an old fellow! I never dreamed that Lena would be working here!

To be honest, I can't ask for Lena to work for us, it's just ...... I won't say anything superfluous!

Congratulations! Valery! With Linna here as your assistant, I'll be relieved!

Linna, when I met you on Lake Baikal this time, I had a hunch that a miracle would happen! When Roman saw that I had agreed to Valery's job offer, he stood up excitedly and shouted at Valery with his hands outstretched.
