Chapter 10 Calculation(1/2)

"..."
Song Yuqing walked downstairs and stood at the top of the stairs. She looked across the living room and saw Cao Mo, Kabuga and Lucy discussing something, but stopped talking.
"Sister Yuqing..."
Cao Mo greeted Song Yuqing, but saw Song Yuqing frowning slightly.
Intuition told Cao Mo that Song Yuqing had decided to stand together with Yang Deshan and Guo Jian, and felt that he was too close to call her as he did in the past.
Cao Mo's conditions at this time were completely incomparable to those of Yang Deshan and Guo Jian who had joined forces. Even today, Yang Deshan would be kicked out of the West Africa branch. There was no hope that Song Yuqing would come to his side.
Song Yuqing is different from Lucy and Kabuga. As a dispatched employee of Dongsheng, she has a fairly high salary. Even if Yang Deshan and Guo Jian did not make any promises to her, it is destined that she will not be able to compete with Yang Deshan.
Guo Jian confronted him.
Cao Mo was kicked out of the branch. Even if the gold mine project failed, he would still find a way to stay in Draculamore and gain a foothold.
Song Yuqing has a falling out with Yang Deshan and Guo Jian, what should we do?
He doesn't mind taking a pretty married woman with him and running into the depths of the primitive jungle to start a business, but he doesn't mind!
Dracula couldn't survive, so she was forced to return to China. How should she face her bad family relationship?
In addition, Cao Mo's status in the eyes of Lucy and Kabuga is completely different from his status in the eyes of Song Yuqing.
In the eyes of Lucy and Kabuga, Cao Mo was still an investor with a small amount of capital, and he usually earned a salary that was ten or twenty times higher than theirs.
But in Song Yuqing's eyes, Cao Mo's salary was even lower than hers!
Cao Mo would not say anything to embarrass or embarrass her, nor would he spoil his relationship with her and apologize for his "recklessness" yesterday:
"I'm really sorry that Sister Song was frightened by what I did yesterday -"
"..."
Cao Mo changed the title, but saw that Song Yuqing's beautiful eyebrows furrowed even more tightly. Apparently she disliked him calling her "Sister Song" and calling her old.
Women are really hard to figure out, and I don’t even know how to serve them in a way that suits her.

"Guo Jian is indeed at fault, but you responded rudely to him yesterday - he is your supervisor after all, and asked you to go to Guo Jian to make peace. I guess you are not willing to do it. You'd better find a chance to talk to Yang
Always admit your mistake, even if you have to step down the stairs for Guo Jian. After a while, when everyone stops being so tense, the little knot will disappear." Song Yuqing stood at the top of the stairs, hesitated for a while, and persuaded.
Dongsheng Group is not one of the top private companies in the country, but it still has thousands of employees. Song Yuqing didn't know Cao Mo before, but only got to know him after applying for the West Africa branch.
In the past six months, Cao Mo gave her the impression that she was a handsome boy who was a bit small-town, cautious, but diligent, and willing to do things.
Lucy's matter made her dissatisfied for a while, but if she had anything to do with her afterwards, whether it was public or private, Cao Mo would run quickly and be willing to help, and the grudge in her heart soon disappeared.
The scene that happened yesterday was such a contrast to her that Cao Mo felt like a complete stranger to her.
Of course, what gave her a headache and even anxiety was how we would get along with each other under the same roof in the future.
Yang Deshan is not often in Dracula, but wouldn't it be embarrassing and painful for her to be caught between Guo Jian and Cao Mo, who are incompatible with each other?
Song Yuqing said that, but when she saw Cao Mo staring at her, she felt guilty for no reason.
Cao Mo asked, "Is this what Mr. Yang asked you to say?"
"Ah," Song Yuqing was stunned for a moment and quickly defended, "Mr. Yang asked me to advise you, but I think so too."
Song Yuqing was not lying when she said this.
Yang Deshan was not in front of him, so Cao Mo could not directly use his sharp intuition to pry into his thoughts. However, Cao Mo was now very sure that Guo Jian did not look for Lucy early in the morning, but rushed to the intersection to intercept Kabuga, threaten and win over him. This was Yang Deshan's instruction.
.
In that case, Yang Deshan's intention in calling Song Yuqing to send a message was basically to stabilize him.
The reason is simple and not difficult to figure out.
Yang Deshan, encouraged by Guo Jian, must have set his sights on the gold mine cooperation project in Yibo Ancient Village, and he didn't think Cao Mo, a young man, had any qualifications to compete with them.
However, as a middle-level employee of Dongsheng, Yang Deshan is in charge of the West African branch, but he is still working on his own projects privately in Draculamo. If someone gets involved in the group, will he still be able to keep his position in Dongsheng?
Obviously, even if the gold mine in Ibogu Village is profitable, it is not certain how profitable it will be.
Yang Deshan has been very resentful about his exile in Africa for more than a year, but no matter what, he can never give up his current high-paying job with a guaranteed income of four to five million yuan a year despite droughts and floods.
Cao Mo thought to himself that Yang Deshan not only wanted to stabilize him at this time, but he might also give him some of the sweetness of three melons and two dates.
After all, he just broke up with Guo Jian, but he did not damage Yang Deshan's face.
Besides, if he retains him and checks and balances with Guo Jian, the West Africa branch will become Yang Deshan's iron-clad base - as a boss, doesn't he have to support his subordinates to fight against him?
However, at this time, how could Cao Mo be willing to hold on to his anger and become Yang Deshan's pawn?
"Sister Yuqing, tell Mr. Yang that no matter what, I'm not a talkative person. Tell him to rest assured." Cao Mo said.
"ah……"
Song Yuqing still thought about it for a while before she figured out Yang Deshan's intention of asking her to send a message, but she didn't expect that Cao Mo, who was so young, could see through it in the blink of an eye.
He had guessed just now that it was Yang Deshan who asked her to deliver the message!
He is really a young man who has just turned 20 years old. Is he really so powerful now?
Song Yuqing's eyes couldn't help but drift towards the car keys on the dining table.
Cao Mo keenly noticed the wandering look in Song Yuqing's eyes, and intuitively felt that Song Yuqing had something to say, but he paused. He smiled inwardly and said to Song Yuqing:
"Leave the car keys here. I won't use the company car. I can understand Mr. Yang's thoughts, but even so, I won't be a talkative person. Who can win the cooperation of Yibo Ancient Village?
Based on my ability, if it turns out that I am overestimating my abilities, Sister Yuqing will see that I don’t look like someone who would complain, right?"
There is no direct road from Draculamo to Ibogu Village. You need to take a detour from Catero City in Oyo State. It is the rainy season and the road conditions are very bad. It takes seven or eight hours to drive there.
Kabuga had previously suggested riding a motorcycle on a small road and rushing to Longta outside Yibogu Village. The main reason was that Yang Deshan and Guo Jian would not let them drive the company's car away.
Chief Felician, riding a motorcycle on a small road is the fastest.
Even if the road is unfamiliar and the path is muddy, as long as they are heading in the right direction, they should be able to reach Longta in three or four hours. It is still much faster than Guo Jian, Yang Deshan and the others driving around Catero...
Of course, Cao Mo guessed that Guo Jian didn't ask Kabuga to hand over the car keys at the intersection just now, which was probably a trap.
At this moment, Song Yuqing's wandering eyes and hesitation about speaking confirmed Cao Mo's guess.
He really wanted to drive the company car with Kabuga directly to Yibogu Village. Guo Jian then called the police and reported that the company's property had been stolen. This would be a trap that would make it difficult for him and Kabuga to escape.
The local police in Draculamore are not an easy department to deal with; especially Yang Deshan and Guo Jian called the police in the name of the company. It will be very difficult for him to find the consulate for consular protection.
In this case, even if Song Yuqing's persuasion didn't work, Yang Deshan still had the ability to threaten him into shutting up.
Even so, Cao Mo felt that he had to stay afloat for the time being and not fall out with Yang Deshan directly.
There's no point in doing that.
He didn't want to call Yang Deshan at all. Guo Jian succeeded in the gold mine project, so he went to the group to file a complaint without any real evidence.
Of course, Yang Deshan was wary of him, so it would be beneficial if he didn't fall out.
Even if Yang Deshan did not compete with him on the gold mine project, as long as Yang Deshan and Guo Jian still want to do some private work in Dracula Mo, with this layer of scruples, they may not dare to directly expose him and Kabuga.
West kicked out of the branch.
"I haven't taken my annual leave since I arrived in Draculamore. Please help me tell Manager Guo that I will take annual leave with Lucy and Kabuga in the next few days. We will make up for the annual leave procedures with him when we have time. He
If you are absolutely unwilling and think it is absenteeism, then there is nothing wrong with using it as a reason to fire us..." Cao Mo said to Song Yuqing.
She felt as if she had been stripped naked. Standing in front of Cao Mo, she could not hide her thoughts from him. Song Yuqing was a little flustered and did not dare to look into his eyes. She hurriedly turned around and walked upstairs...
…………
…………
Seeing Song Yuqing going upstairs, Cao Mo thought to himself.
He had never been qualified to directly confront Yang Deshan before, and he had no conflict of interest. He really didn't realize how powerful he was. But a series of details this morning showed that Yang Deshan, who is usually full of complaints, is really a person who eats meat without spitting out bones.
Old fox.
Forget it, it’s better to survive and get rich first.
"I'll sort out a catalog of the equipment that needs to be used. Lucy, you'll stay in the city today and find a Chinese agent to inquire about quotations and delivery deadlines. It's best to have ready goods and reliable performance.
Second-hand equipment; you also need to understand the procedures for registering foreign mining companies and handling mining procedures for foreign enterprises - I will go directly to Canter Street with Kabuga in a moment to see if there are any second-hand motorcycles, and rush to Ibogu Village to meet the old chief...
…”
Cao Mo's time was tighter than that of Guo Jian and the others, so he had to divide his forces into two groups, and there was nothing to worry about leaving Lucy alone in Draculamore City.
Yang Deshan and Guo Jian could not threaten or win her over. Apart from expelling her from the company, they actually had no means to deal with a shrewd, capable and fierce-tempered local woman.
Is it more poignant?
Canter Street is not far from Kennett Building. Cao Mo and Kabuga walked to the intersection of the community and got on the bus with rusty corners.
If a Chinese takes a bus alone, he will not only attract surprised looks from the locals, but also worry about whether his pockets have been rifled through by local Liangshang gentlemen a few times after getting off the bus.
