Signing the Contract
Quan Yue's commissioning of shipbuilding at the Shipyard was only part of his objective.
His real purpose was not just to commission the shipbuilding.
His most important goal was actually to poach staff from the Shipyard.
They poached all the shipbuilding technology and talent from their family and established Shipyard exclusively for their family.
Therefore, Quan Yue felt that it might be more beneficial for him to first get in touch with this somewhat strange deputy factory director than to directly contact the factory director.
Just as they were waiting in the room for the instructor to return, a rough voice came from outside the door.
"Jiang Jun, Jiang Jun! Are you there?"
Before anyone could answer, the director of the room pushed open the door and walked in.
Quan Yue and Su Ling'er turned around and saw a dark-skinned, muscular man barging into their room.
The two looked at the man with slight displeasure, and the man noticed their gazes.
In an instant, he changed his attitude from rude to gentle, saying to the two men, "I'm really sorry, you two are here to order a ship. But I want to remind you that you've been tricked by that kid Jiang Jun."
Custom-made work is not his job.
Quan Yue was immediately intrigued and asked curiously, "I heard that Mr. Jiang Jun is the deputy factory manager of your factory. Does that mean that the deputy factory manager cannot receive customers alone or accept custom orders?"
The rude man continued, "Although he is indeed the deputy factory manager, that's just an empty title given to him because he's the factory manager's disciple."
However, despite his renowned reputation, he was actually a complete novice when it came to shipbuilding. Therefore, he would deliberately wait at the entrance and abduct customers in order to attract them.
"I see."
After listening to the man's explanation, Su Ling'er gained a general understanding of the matter.
Another angry roar came from outside the door, "Su Li, how many times have I told you not to enter my room without permission?"
Jiang Jun carried some items and quickly returned to his room, only to find that his 'good deed' had been ruined as soon as he got back.
At this moment, Jiang Jun could no longer contain his anger and loudly rebuked the man Su Li.
Su Li's expression immediately turned gloomy, and his gaze towards Jiang Jun became ominous.
Jiang Jun's gaze, fixed on Su Li, instantly shifted from anger to cowardice.
He was blinded by anger and almost forgot that Su Li was a powerful Spirit Master.
If it weren't for his status as the deputy factory director, his actions would have been considered an offense against a esteemed Spirit Master.
Seeing that there were guests nearby, Su Li also paid attention to her image.
He smiled and patted Jiang Jun on the shoulder, saying with a grin, "Junior brother, I wonder if you two explained your specific situation when you accepted the custom commission?"
Jiang Jun looked at Su Li and said through gritted teeth, "No."
"That won't do. Our Vast Sea Shipyard values honest business practices. Hiding things from customers is the last thing we should do."
Your skill level is far from being good enough to serve clients.
Jiang Jun wanted to retort immediately, but when he saw the cold glint in Su Li's eyes, he could only swallow his anger and resentment.
He turned and bowed deeply to Quan Yue and Su Ling'er, apologizing, "I'm sorry, you two. I deceived you. Your request can be fulfilled through Senior Brother Su."
Under duress, he had no choice but to give up the customer he had worked so hard to "snatch".
When Su Li turned to face Quan Yue, his smiling face returned, completely disregarding Jiang Jun's feelings behind him, and he said, "Haha, I'm sorry to have made you two laugh. From now on, I will be serving you."
As he spoke, he pointed outside the room and said, "Please follow me; my room is not far away."
Quan Yue witnessed a good show on site and also got a general understanding of the specific situation.
Seeing Su Li's invitation, Quan Yue did not refuse.
He smiled and nodded, saying, "Then we'll trouble Mr. Su to lead the way."
Upon hearing this, Su Li beamed with joy and immediately walked ahead to lead the way for the two.
Quan Yue also grabbed Su Ling'er's arm and followed her out of Jiang Jun's room.
Jiang Jun stood by the door and brushed past the two people. Although his expression was normal, the contract in his hand was deformed from being squeezed.
After Quan Yue walked out of the room, he turned around and gave Jiang Jun a special look when no one was paying attention.
In Su Li's office, Su Li was enthusiastically explaining the relevant information to Quan Yue and Su Ling'er.
Quan Yue didn't waste any time and repeated the requirements he had previously told Jiang Jun to Su Li.
After thinking for a moment, Su Li presented Quan Yue with a general design plan.
Su Li's plan was very similar to Jiang Jun's plan.
Quan Yue did not hesitate and directly signed a contract with Su Li.
Of course, signing this contract is only the first step; there are still many things to discuss with Su Li afterward.
This includes everything from specific design drawings and plans to the arrangement of specific construction dates, and so on.
But this is undoubtedly a good start.
According to rough estimates, it would take about two to three years to build a ship that meets their requirements.
However, since there are many medium-sized Ship Hull prefabricated in the Shipyard, the required time will be greatly reduced.
With just a few minor modifications and a thick layer of sheet metal covering the Ship Hull, they could launch the ship.
The required time is reduced by half.
After agreeing on the specifics, Quan Yue and Su Ling'er bid farewell to Su Li and returned to their villa in a carriage.
On the way, Su Ling'er could no longer contain her doubts and asked Quan Yue, "Why did you choose Jiang Jun instead of Su Li just now? Your expression clearly showed that you were more interested in Jiang Jun."
Based on Su Ling'er's understanding of Quan Yue, she could discern Quan Yue's thoughts simply from his subtle expressions.
However, just when she thought that Quan Yue would choose Jiang Jun, Quan Yue unexpectedly chose Jiang Jun instead.
This puzzled Su Ling'er.
Quan Yue replied, "Hehe, if I had chosen Jiang Jun back then, it would have been the other way around and harmed him."
As you saw at the time, if Jiang Jun had been in charge of shipbuilding, he would definitely have been influenced by Su Li.
Conversely, Jiang Jun was unable to influence Su Li.
We urgently need a ship, so from an efficiency standpoint, Su Li is definitely the most suitable choice.
Moreover, my interest in Jiang Jun stems from other reasons, and has little to do with this commission.
Su Ling'er understood something and didn't ask any further questions.
Back at the villa, the sun had already begun to set.
Standing on high ground, I watched the sun descend from the boundless sea.
The sunset, with its shimmering gold hue and sparkling waves, creates a breathtaking scene that defies description.
After returning to the villa, Quan Yue immediately summoned his subordinates.
He then instructed, "I want to know all the specific information about Vast Sea Shipyard. In particular, the matter concerning Jiang Jun and Su Li must be thoroughly investigated."
