Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

Chapter 108: Test of Blood and Fire

Su Chen could use this opportunity to gain greater benefits. In a short while, he had walked to the outside of the headquarters office with the technicians.

Although Su Chen had the authority to enter and exit the base granted by the military superiors,

If he wanted to visit the command center, he needed the help of the guard on duty to inform his superiors.

After all, much of the information stored in the headquarters is confidential and cannot be easily disclosed to others.

Even though Suchen had obtained military permission, he was still a factory director after all. Entering the headquarters without permission would lead to the risk of leaking secrets.

He could only stand outside the building with the engineer without taking any further action.

He then said to the security officer patrolling outside the building: "Please call inside and ask the leader to see me."

The security personnel at the sentry post immediately recognized that the other party was a person of high reputation, and immediately stood at attention and saluted in response.

Another guard immediately walked into the building to announce Su Chen's arrival.

Just like that, the two of them waited quietly outside to be received by their leader.

After seeing Su Chen's series of actions, the technical backbones couldn't help but wonder. What kind of special identity does Director Su Chen have?

There were alert soldiers all around, and some troops were patrolling, making the entire military area appear particularly heavily guarded.

The technical backbone followed Su Chen all the way and witnessed a large number of officers and soldiers. They knew in their hearts that this area was full of high risks. For a migrant worker like him, he had never had the opportunity to approach a similar high-security deployment area, so his legs were shaking when he saw such a scene.

If he reported an oil-related incident, would he be put in danger? Would he be taken to the person in charge at the military base by the factory director to be punished?

What worried him even more was that maybe this report really had an impact on something, and might even lead to a fight. This was probably why Su Chen had led him into this military zone.

But the technical backbone's worries were completely unnecessary, as the guards soon returned and found them.

"The leader is waiting inside, please follow me." The guard saluted Su Chen.

The leader of the army was busy dealing with affairs and had no time to greet him, so he sent the guard to bring Su Chen here.

Su Chen always brought him unexpected results, so the military leaders let him in. Judging from Su Chen's personality, he would not actively seek assistance unless it was an important situation that he had to. Su Chen led the technical backbone into the office building.

Out of fear of the scenario imagined in their minds, the technical backbone did not dare to look around casually, for fear that they might see something they should not see.

After a while, the two men walked through the office building and went down to the reception room of the military chief.

Su Chen knocked on the door and received a response, then the military leader told the two to go in.

The two of them entered the conference room, and Su Chen signaled his companion to gently close the door behind them. At this time, the technical backbone was in the leader's room, feeling even more anxious.

His fear grew even more intense as he saw the numerous awards and honors certificates hanging on the walls.

Perhaps this leader has an extraordinary status, would he send himself to prison?

As a result, this backbone member became extremely nervous when he entered the reception room and stood still at the entrance.

On the contrary, Su Chen was extremely calm. He sat opposite the person in charge with an air of ease and turned on the air conditioner.

Gentle breeze blew in, making Su Chen look frank, as if he didn't have anything urgent to discuss.

Seeing his relaxed attitude, the leader did not speak immediately, but continued to work on the task at hand with his head down.

The room suddenly became extremely quiet, with only the gentle noise of the air conditioner lingering, and the technical backbone was sweating nervously. Although both seemed calm, the technical backbone was not like that - he was completely worried about whether he would be in prison. Fortunately, after the military commander finished some official business, he finally looked at the young man and spoke slowly.

"You are very good at pretending to be calm, young man."

The military leaders had intended to leave Su Chen alone and dampen his enthusiasm, but they did not expect Su Chen to be so calm and composed.

This made the military leaders look at Su Chen with even greater respect.

Su Chen chuckled and did not respond. Instead, he picked up the cup of tea on the leader's desk and took a sip.

Seeing his attitude, the leader realized that this guy was pushing his luck. So he shook his head and said:

"You don't usually come to visit me, what's the matter with you coming this time?"

The military leader was worried that Su Chen would make big news again this time, so he reached out and called a technician over.

Seeing the technician sweating profusely, Su Chen thought the temperature in the room was too high.

He said to the technician, "Report to your leader what you said in my office before."

The technician was extremely nervous but dared not show it on the surface. He reported his situation again tremblingly.

At first, the military leaders looked calm when listening to the technicians' reports, and even drank a cup of tea to show their relaxation.

In fact, he had already heard about Su Chen sending people to Ethiopia, but he had never revealed it.

After all, he didn't need to be concerned about the personnel arrangements within the steel mill.

When the military leaders heard the technicians mention the training of soldiers in Ethiopia, they couldn't help but glance at Su Chen - this guy really took on everything.

If he hadn't had a relationship with Su Chen, he would have reported this "troublemaker" long ago.

After all, ordinary people cannot enter the overseas market, let alone teach foreigners how to use firearms.

Considering Su Chen's outstanding performance in the past, he chose not to care about the trivial matter this time and continued to listen to the report leisurely.

I don’t know what Su Chen’s purpose is here, but these contents are probably not the whole point.

Despite this, the military leaders still felt that this matter would not be so simple. After all, Su Chen personally came to explain the importance of the problem.

The military leader put down his teacup when he heard the technicians mention that they had acquired land in Ethiopia.

"You guys are really good at causing trouble."

He was very surprised by this.

At first, people thought that the people sent by Su Chen were just traveling, and it was at most a business trip.

But he never expected that this group of people would not only teach the local soldiers how to use guns, but also bring back a piece of land?

Although this matter seemed more reasonable when spoken by Su Chen, it was a piece of land after all and could not be handled casually.

After thinking for a moment, the military leader did not interrupt the technician's report, but let him continue, shaking his head.

In fact, it is not uncommon for steel mills to obtain land as donations from local governments.

After all, many private enterprises in the country have already begun to exert their strength, and some state-owned enterprises have also gone to the black continent.

After helping the local people, the locals also gave some material compensation, so the military leaders could also guess this matter.

However, he always felt that Su Chen's development speed was extraordinary.

He thought this was shocking enough, but he never expected that a bigger surprise was about to be revealed.

The technical backbone's next words shocked the military leader, and he dropped the cup in his hand. "What?! You found oil underground?!"

The shock caused the military leaders to feel their blood pressure suddenly rise.

His hands were shaking with excitement, and he almost had a stroke. This was an unprecedented opportunity!

Such an event is like a dream come true for every soldier.

Originally, the military leaders felt that they were living in a peaceful era and that such an opportunity would never appear again.

After all, although the international situation is tense now, according to national policies, war is unlikely to break out at home or abroad.

Therefore, it is almost a fantasy to gain more territory.

As a contemporary soldier, military leaders have also dreamed late at night that one day they would have the opportunity to establish meritorious service.

Although soldiers in peacetime still receive daily training, it is still not as good as on the battlefield. He has also experienced many battles, so he understands the significance of battle to a soldier.

Even though he has become a local leader, he still has to abide by the country's regulations. Whenever he sees soldiers from other countries making great achievements, he can only sigh in admiration in the barracks.

I originally thought that this would be how my life would be spent, but I didn't expect that I would have such a good opportunity to expand my territory in my lifetime!

The extremely excited military leader completely ignored the water stains on his trousers and looked at the technical backbone with red eyes. The technical backbone was a little flustered because of his eyes, as if he had seen a wild beast.

At this moment, he was completely immersed in it and urgently hoped that the technical backbone would tell the whole truth.

The technical backbone stammered: "Yes... yes, leader. Our captain led everyone to discover the oil stored underground."

This sudden discovery shocked the military leaders to the extreme.

What does an overseas island with rich oil resources mean?

This will not only enable the dispatch of troops to be stationed there to exploit oil, but will also allow this opportunity to deepen relations with Ethiopia.

All of this excited him.

The military leaders are naturally aware of the overseas oil reserves, although there are also many oil fields in the country, so even if the overseas oil reserves are abundant, they will not be too excited.

But since these lands belong to the steel mill, it is not excessive for the military leaders to send troops, especially when there are legitimate reasons for the presence, the military can gain more benefits.

Although the technical backbone spoke with a stutter, the facts revealed by his mouth were unquestionable.

Based on the military leader's many years of experience in judging people, he believed that this technical backbone would not lie to his face. And it turned out to be true!

At this time, a large amount of tactical information has emerged in the leader's mind.

He could use this opportunity to let the country's army practice actual combat outside. After all, only through the test of blood and fire can true warriors be trained.

The military leaders were extremely excited at the thought of being able to conduct actual combat training through the land of Ethiopia.
