Chapter 489: The Scourge

Chapter 489: The Scourge

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the group kicked off the official

work.

Camille put together the corresponding report after this understanding

visit and opened it as a cast screen for your reference.

She stood up for her research and briefly presented it. Her presentation

skills and the information she organized were so thorough that she

could make everyone present understand at a glance what she was

presenting.

Once her presentation was over it was Cora's turn.

Cora did not immediately express her recommendation, but simply

spoke up and said, "I personally like Miss Armstrong's findings very

much, and we can all find out from these researches of Miss Armstrong

that she is a very good architect, and if I was not in my current position,

I would strongly agree with her recommendation, but I now represent

not me personally but the financial head of this project.”

"I still maintain the same decision and attitude I had at the beginning,

although Fola has good merits, I still think it's not yet at the point where

it's the best fit for us and I hope I can give this opportunity to a better

fit.”

Cora expressed her opinion before the military, and Camille naturally

stuck to her original idea and decision.

So both men are on the same page, and the others will need to vote by

ballot to decide whether they want to continue the project?

Before everyone voted, Cora took the initiative and asked, "Miss

Armstrong, is there anything else you'd like to express? If you have

better ideas and good suggestions I think you still need to say it, so

maybe it will make me see what I said I didn't see, because I'm really

conflicted.”

Camille shook her head: "All that I have expressed is in my report, both

the pros and cons are the most honest review, I simply did what an

architect should do, so I don't have anything further to express.”

Camille's words were finished and the atmosphere became serious.

The faces of several people are floating with a grave seriousness, this

is about the first and most important decision of this project.

After a short silence for a few minutes, Dan took the lead and said,

"Since no one is taking a stand, I'll be the first one to eat crabs?"

Cora looked at Dan with a gentle face and then asked in a gentle voice,

"Master Tucker, is it okay if I want to say something before you make a

decision?"

Dan made a gesture of please.

Cora: "It just occurred to me that the road to Fola and the town is very

bumpy, if we decide to build the first station in Fola then we have to

spend an extra amount of money to build the road, so I'm afraid it's a bit

of a waste of money, which I mentioned before, although the local said

that it is already in the planning, but the exact time is unknown, so I

don't know if this aspect of the budget is included in this project?"

Although this project is charity-oriented, but the road repair will

obviously exceed the budget, so it is equivalent to an extra amount of

money, and not a small amount, so it is a bit contrary to the original

intention of the project.

Mr. and Mrs. Bell also nodded after Cora's words, and then Austin was

the first to take a stand: "I agree with Manager Hayes, although

Manager Hayes' proposal is perhaps too sensible to take into account

the expectations of the local villagers for this project, but sometimes the

sensible is not only good for us, but also better for the local villagers.

It's better for the local villagers, so I stand by my decision from the

beginning.”

Dan followed suit: "I still agree with Miss Armstrong's idea, and with the

Tucker Group being a tourism start-up, I think Fola would be perfect for

development as a Modest Temple Hotel.”

After the two men's words fell, everyone's eyes turned to Mr. and Mrs.

Bell and Ayan.

Austin smiled gently, "What are Mr. and Mrs. Bell's suggestions?"

Mrs. Bell did not say anything, Mr. Bell hurriedly said: "I think we need

to think about it, because the two of you have different opinions, but

both of you also said very comprehensive, both for this time project, I

do not want to make a decision lightly, so we want to think about it."

Austin and Dan both nodded their heads in understanding.

As for Camille and Cora, they both have no comments.

Mr. Bell turned to Ayan again and asked, "Master Simpson, what are

your thoughts?"

Ayan did not give a clear answer, just follow the words of Mr. and Mrs.

Bell: "Since you two want to consider before giving an answer, then I

think I as the head of this project my decision will have some influence

on your judgment, so I want to wait until everyone has made a decision

before giving my answer. *

With Ayan's words the short meeting ended for now.

Mr. and Mrs. Bell's side needs a day of consideration and the results

will be given at tomorrow's meeting.

Because Dan and Austin are one for Camille and one for Cora, it's a tie.

For Camille, she doesn't have much to worry about, after all, it's not like

an architect competition or any other competition where you have to

win or lose.

It's just a project.

The reason why she tried so hard to present all the good things was

simply to bring a good response to the project and also to bring benefits

to the local community.

Because the local villagers are really welcoming, maybe elsewhere too,

but there is a word called preconceptions.

After the meeting, Mr. and Mrs. Bell and Austin had to discuss with

Ayan the final third partnership for the project, so they had to continue

their discussions.

Camille and Dan left the Simpson Group together. Camille looked at the

time and she offered an invitation, "Can I pay you back for the meal I

owe you today?"

"So early?" Dan faltered slightly.

Camille: "I'm going to the office now, and then it's about time, so if

you're not bored you can come with me for a walk around the office?"

Dan naturally had no problem following Camille to the office.

Dan looks sunny and handsome and has no sense of distance, he only

came for the first time to greet with the company partners and no

human frame.

A few young girls were so charmed by him that Timmy turned around,

and even Sienna couldn't help but secretly inquire with Camille: "Is this

the international student friend you said you've known for more than six

months?"

"Hmm."

"Tsk! You're not enough of a best friend, you're just introducing us now,

so sunny and handsome, it feels like every day with him is a brilliant

mood, do you think we have a chance?" Sienna said while her eyes

kept glancing out.

Camille looked at it and shook her head, "Don't you wreck others, be a

person!"

Sienna looked at Camille wrongly, but Camille did not continue the

topic, but said, “Let's have lunch together, I'll invite him to dinner, and

you accompany me."

"Really? Is this creating an opportunity for me?" Sienna blinked with

anticipation.

"Overthinking.” Camille said faintly, as to why she could not say it

herself.

Then the original meal for two became the current meal for three.

Camille chose a local restaurant in Hance City, which is well known for

its taste and service.

After ordering, Camille went to the bathroom.

Dan didn't know Sienna well, so the atmosphere was a bit quiet, but

Sienna graciously took the initiative and asked, "Hasn't Mr. Tang been

to Hance City before?"

“It's been here, but it's been many years." Dan responded.

The two of you talk about some boring topics, the atmosphere is not

awkward.

But only two sentences later, Sienna's cell phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller alert and pressed answer with a slight frown,

lowering her voice because Dan was in the way: "Yes?"

"Where are you?"

"What for?"

"Where?"

"Company."

The next second a sneering man's voice with obvious displeasure rang

in his ears questioned, "Heh, is that so? So is that your twin sister or

sister sitting across from that man right now?"
