Chapter 399 Thank you for your hard work
"They said before that there were cultural relics, but they didn't know how they were distributed, as long as..."
As I spoke, I quickly flipped through the documents.
“Cultural relics…”
"Here it is." At that moment, Xu Sisi and I were overjoyed.
The diagram above shows that the cultural relics are all concentrated, not particularly scattered. As long as we hurry, we will definitely have enough time.
"Sisi, go find those experts and talk to them now."
"now?"
“Yes, right now. The project has been suspended. We need to contact some archaeological experts as soon as possible and talk to them.” At that moment, I already had an idea in mind.
"Is there anything else I need to prepare?"
I immediately replied, "No, I need a few more copies of these documents. Thank you for your help."
"Understood, I'll take care of it right away," Xu Sisi replied crisply.
"Gu Mo, what idea have you come up with?" Song Yang asked, flipping through the documents.
"Yes, time is of the essence. We'll discuss this on-site later."
Less than two hours later, Xu Sisi received the news and arrived with several archaeological experts.
Two of them were senior researchers at the local archaeological institute, and the other was a nationally renowned professor of archaeology. I immediately went to greet them, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, we got straight to the point.
"Experts, thank you so much for getting here so quickly." I said sincerely, "We discovered some cultural relics during our excavation at the construction site."
One of the leaders spoke up, "Is there a problem?"
"Our initial assessment suggests it may be an ancient burial site. In accordance with the law, we must suspend construction and await an assessment from the cultural relics department."
I then added, "However, the project has a tight schedule, and a single day of work stoppage would result in huge losses. Therefore, I would like to ask if there is any way to both protect the cultural relics and allow the project to continue?"
The experts exchanged glances, and then the archaeology professor spoke up: "Ms. Gu, we understand your feelings. However, the protection of cultural relics is a legal requirement of the country, and we must treat it with utmost care. Could you take us to the site first?"
I nodded and immediately led them to the area where the artifacts were discovered.
Several experts carefully examined the pottery shards, bricks, tiles, and soil structure at the site, and discussed it in hushed tones.
Then, the professor turned to me and said, "Judging from the situation at the site, this is indeed an ancient burial complex, possibly dating back to the Tang and Song dynasties, and it has certain historical value. If we follow the usual procedures, this place will require detailed archaeological excavation, which may delay the project by several months or even longer."
My heart sank, but before I could speak, the professor continued, "However, we just discussed it and think there's a compromise that we might be willing to try."
"What plan?" I asked immediately, a glimmer of hope igniting in my heart.
The professor pointed to an area on the map and explained, "We can replan the construction route, shifting the main construction area southeast to avoid the core area of the burial complex."
"This way, we can both protect the cultural relics and allow the project to continue. Of course, this will require you to redesign the construction plan, which may increase some costs."
I carefully examined the map and quickly calculated in my mind. Although adjusting the plan would increase some costs, it was undoubtedly a feasible solution compared to the losses caused by the indefinite suspension of the project.
"Is this plan feasible?" I asked the experts, my tone filled with anticipation.
Another archaeological researcher nodded: "From a technical point of view, this plan is feasible."
“We can assist you in designating a cultural relic protection zone to ensure that construction will not damage the cultural relics.” He paused, observing the change in my eyes, and then continued, “However, the specific construction plan still needs to be further refined by you and the design team.”
I breathed a sigh of relief, a huge weight lifted from my shoulders: "That's great! Thank you so much for the experts' advice."
"We will adjust the construction plan as soon as possible to ensure that the cultural relics are protected."
"Then thank you to the experts," Song Yang chimed in.
Several experts nodded, and then added some detailed suggestions.
I took detailed notes in preparation for future communication with the design team.
After seeing the experts off, I immediately convened a meeting with the team and announced the new construction plan.
Although everyone looked tired, there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
"Ms. Gu, what about the investors?" Song Yang asked with some concern.
“I will explain it to them personally. As long as we can resume construction as soon as possible, they should understand.”
"I can foresee that my Song family will go all out when the time comes," Song Yang replied to me with a firm expression.
After the meeting, I called the person in charge of the investor and explained our adjustment plan and progress in detail.
Although the other party's tone was still somewhat dissatisfied, at least they did not raise any further questions.
"Ms. Gu, I hope you can resolve this issue as soon as possible and prevent similar situations from happening again," the other party concluded.
"It definitely will, please rest assured," I solemnly promised.
After hanging up the phone, I breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back in my chair, closed my eyes, and savored a rare moment of peace.
After that, I announced the new construction plan.
"Finally solved."
One of the employees said.
"Yes, now we can roll up our sleeves and get to work."
"Look what you said."
The people around them chimed in with their own comments.
The good times didn't last long. Everything went smoothly at the beginning of the project, but I gradually realized something was wrong.
When Song Feng faced legal consequences, he took precautions by planting spies within my team.
A few days ago, when we were organizing materials, the office was empty during lunch break.
Wang Hua quietly turned on his computer and copied the encrypted solution file into a specially made USB drive.
Just then, his phone vibrated; it was a message from the contact person arranged by Song Feng.
Contact person: "Did you get the goods?"
Wang Hua quickly replied, "Soon, the plan will be finalized soon, and this time we will definitely make Gu Mo and the others suffer."
After copying the documents, Wang Hua sent an encrypted email to his contact via the dark web, revealing key details such as changes in construction materials, adjustments to the construction sequence, and new timelines.
The day before the negotiations, Wang Hua, having obtained the negotiation strategy and bottom line, was preparing to leak the information again.
Wang Hua's colleague Yan Duo suddenly walked into the office and asked, "Wang Hua, what are you doing?"
Wang Hua's heart tightened, but she forced herself to remain calm: "Oh, I'm just organizing some previous project materials, in case I need them for the negotiations."
Yan Duo didn't think much of it, took the things and left.
Wang Hua breathed a sigh of relief and immediately used a vulnerability in the company's network to transmit the information.
