I've already become an immortal, and the global cultivation world is only just beginning?

Chapter 20 contribution points obtained!

On the way to the project site.

Jiang Heng also added Supervisor Zhou on WeChat and sent him the earliest procurement contract.

After circling back to the front of the construction site, we arrived at the row of makeshift houses.

I went up the stairs to the second floor with a 'tap tap tap' sound.

Jiang Heng looked at the makeshift building in the middle, with a sign sticking out that read "Phase III Project Department".

Supervisor Zhou was quite direct.

Jiang Heng saw him push the door open with a bang, startling the few people who were chatting and smoking.

"Old Zhang! Manager Wang!"

Supervisor Zhou was not only direct in pushing open the door, but also in speaking very directly.

"Come on, explain to me now, what's going on?!"

Supervisor Zhou opened his phone and directly accessed the purchase order.

The person called "Old Zhang" is the purchasing manager.

He was a slightly overweight middle-aged man. When he heard Supervisor Zhou questioning him and saw the contract, his face turned pale and his smoking hand trembled.

"Zhou...Brother Zhou...this...this might be...this might be a communication misunderstanding..."

"Is there an error?" Supervisor Zhou was furious. "You're saying there's an error when it's written in black and white?"

Where did your eyes go?

The required wall thickness for these 40mm pipes is 4.5mm, but when you placed the order, it became 4.2mm or even lower?

Where did the extra material costs go?

"No...no..." Old Zhang was still trying to argue, "It should be...it should be that the supplier misread the contract? Or...the manufacturer misread it..."

"You misread it? You mean you misread it?"

Supervisor Zhou laughed at his sophistry.

Old Zhang seized on this topic, glancing at the others beside him, "Yes, they're the ones who made the mistake! Don't believe me... ask Old Wang and the others..."

After Lao Zhang finished speaking, Lao Wang and the others did not speak, but instead looked at Jiang Heng next to Engineer Zhou.

Now, the manufacturer has sent people over and brought out the contract.

The matter is now out in the open, and they've stopped trying to deny it or try to fool us like before.

"Yes, it's all Hongyunda's fault." Supervisor Zhou, unusually, nodded upon hearing Old Zhang's words, then suppressed his anger and asked:

"But how did you sign for the package when it was delivered?"

How did you test it?

Supervisor Zhou was very close to Old Zhang, and at this moment he pointed at Old Zhang's face and cursed him directly in the face.

"Originally, with outsiders present, I was going to try to save face for you!"

But now, if I hadn't come and hadn't gone to rework and inspect, would you have just "made the best of a bad situation"?

As Supervisor Zhou spoke, he looked at the rest of the people in the room and pointed at them, cursing them all.

"The only thing that makes me angry right now is that you're still trying to justify yourself even now?"

For the sake of a little "material cost", they not only arbitrarily changed the specifications and parameters, but also treated building safety as a joke!

Ask yourselves honestly, do you even deserve to be called human beings?

As Supervisor Zhou finished speaking.

The office was eerily quiet, and Old Zhang's face was ashen.

Manager Wang, who was in charge of technology, and several other project managers stood nearby, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word.

Zhou Zhenshou's words were like thunderclaps, directly pointing out the depravity of the "Earth Vein Demon Cultivators." His voice contained the power of "exorcising evil," causing the demon cultivators to lose their composure and break out in a cold sweat. The majesty of the "Earth Guardian" could not be allowed to be desecrated by such petty people.

Jiang Heng stood to the side, glancing at the panel and then at the others who dared not speak.

This moment.

Jiang Heng felt like he was just a bystander.

Jiang Heng had originally thought that after being reprimanded by Supervisor Zhou, these people might get so angry that they would "cut off someone's source of income" that they would have a fierce "fight" with Supervisor Zhou.

Who could have imagined that after Supervisor Zhou's anger erupted, his aura, his logic, and his professionalism in reprimanding people were simply divine intervention, sweeping away all evil spirits and demons?

"I'm telling you, this matter won't end so easily!"

Supervisor Zhou looked around, his voice growing increasingly cold.

"The earliest batch of pipes must be completely returned."

Furthermore, the departments responsible for communicating and compensating Hongyunda for its losses should also be involved.

Supervisor Zhou focused his attention on Lao Zhang from the purchasing department, saying, "As for you, the funds allocated for the project were paid by you."

I don't know whose pocket this "price difference" went into, and I don't care whose pocket it went into.

I will report this matter truthfully to the company and the client.

Done.

Supervisor Zhou stopped looking at the pale-faced Lao Zhang and the others, and instead tried to suppress his anger, turning to look at Jiang Heng.

"Master Jiang, the situation is basically clear. It is indeed our own problem and has nothing to do with your company. I will issue a written explanation."

The truth behind the "Mysterious Iron Case" has come to light. "Zhou Zhenshou," with his keen insight, has set things right, and the "Earth Vein Demon Cultivator" is about to be brought to justice.

The sect's grievances have been cleared, and the alliance between "Shuiling New Residence" and "Hongyunda Steel Sect" has been strengthened.

Upon seeing the notification, Jiang Heng knew that the mission could be declared complete.

After Supervisor Zhou finished explaining the problem, his tone was apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Master Jiang. I didn't know what happened at first, and I lost my temper and spoke harshly. I apologize to you."

"fine."

Jiang Heng shook his head and sincerely thanked him, "I should be thanking Engineer Zhou for clarifying things so I can go back and report."

Although the misunderstanding started, his sincerity in apologizing to his subordinates who made a mistake, as a person of standing, and his upright character, are truly admirable.

Of course, the most important thing is the 'contribution task'; just complete it.

"No need to thank me, because this is a matter of principle."

When Supervisor Zhou heard Jiang Heng thank him, he said very seriously, "A mistake is a mistake, and I have nothing to say in my defense."

As he spoke, he made a point of glancing at the unpleasant faces in the office, as if he were saying it to them on purpose.

Upon hearing this, everyone lowered their heads even further.

Especially with Jiang Heng, the supplier, present, they felt even more embarrassed to look up, especially with an outsider in the room.

"Hmph! You actually have any shame?"

Supervisor Zhou cursed again in exasperation, but his expression softened when he turned to look at Jiang Heng.

"If I'm still in charge of the steel supply for our construction site in the future..."

I earnestly request that Mr. Jiang make a copy of each factory order and send it to me.

Zhou Zhenshou has a very good impression of you and wants to forge a positive relationship with you.

The Earth Oversight Bureau is a crucial department for stabilizing the earth's veins. Maintaining good relations with them will greatly benefit the sect's future supply of spiritual materials for the Water Spirit Residence and other secret realm expansions, as well as the future enhancement of the sect's status.

"Okay, that's what I should do."

Jiang Heng was delighted to see the words "Expansion" and "Identity Enhancement," as this was an extra boost in favorability.

A new mission might be triggered someday.

……

After saying goodbye to Supervisor Zhou, I left the project site.

There were a few workers near the guardrail, seemingly just observing the scene.

However, after they saw Jiang Heng come out, they smiled and then moved away from the vicinity of the project site.

Jiang Heng glanced at them, then looked at the still-busy construction site in the distance, before taking out his phone and looking expectantly at the screen.

The case of discrepancies between the "Mysterious Iron Visible Tube" and the actual product has been investigated.

[Reward Distributed: Five taels of silver have been deposited into your inventory, and your sect contribution points have increased by 50!]

Current contribution level: 50

"Got it..."

Jiang Heng was overjoyed; this was exactly what he wanted!

However, the area is a public place, making it difficult to exchange the currency.

Jiang Heng went to the public toilet in the makeshift building first.

Enduring the unpleasant smell, and only after confirming that no one was in the restroom did he mentally click on the "Linlang Treasure Pavilion" icon.

"I also have a metal-attribute cultivation technique..."

Jiang Heng looked at the dazzling array of spirit stones. He originally wanted to try a new cultivation technique, but after thinking about it, he decided to exchange for the water spirit stones that he had previously used to absorb experience.

Jiang Heng knew that he was still in the "Qi Sensing" stage through the "cultivation technique".

The more important thing now is to use the familiar spiritual energy to nourish one's own meridians and expand the upper limit of the 'spiritual energy storage capacity' of the dantian.

Once the dantian reaches the upper limit of "a wisp of spiritual energy", that is "the first level of Qi Refining".

Currently, I only have '0.1 strand'.

"Based on the ratio of 0.1 spirit stone to 'wisp', theoretically, I only need ten spirit stones to reach the first level of Qi Refining..."

Jiang Heng looked at the Water Spirit Stone with anticipation.

[Exchange for 1 low-level water-attribute spirit stone, requiring 50 contribution points]

[Redeem or not?]

"Confirmed!" Jiang Heng replied without hesitation.

[Exchange successful. 1 Low-level Water Attribute Spirit Stone has been added to your 'Inventory']

Looking at the spirit stones that had reappeared in the inventory, and then at the five taels of silver beside them.

Even though the smell in the dry toilet was a bit pungent.

But Jiang Heng was still secretly pleased.

Withdraw your money!

next second.

Jiang Heng habitually put one hand in his pocket, and the spirit stone instantly appeared in his palm.

After waiting for the cultivation technique to circulate, the familiar cool spiritual energy flowed through his body.

Jiang Heng felt as if he were a traveler dying of thirst in the desert who had suddenly come to an oasis, instantly soothing all his psychological and physical anxieties.

……

Hongyunda Company.

Jiang Heng returned to the company with a relaxed air, one hand in his pocket, and knocked on Manager Zhang Li's office door.

"Enter."

Only after hearing Elder Zhang's still indifferent words did Jiang Heng push open the door, preparing to give his previous mission report and see if there were any other new missions.

This time when she came in, Jiang Heng didn't see her frown; instead, her expression softened.

Elder Zhang was overjoyed, remembering your contributions to the sect.
