Chapter 67 [067]
On the way, Li Qin was still confused.
Nick did not explain the matter clearly on the phone, but only talked about meetings. It is not difficult to judge from the joy in his voice and expression that the feasibility of things is very high.
This also made Li Qin feel itchy.
Sprinted all the way.
Arrive at Barbara's cafe.
The business is good.
In the secluded corner, Nick obviously had been waiting for a long time. He looked at his watch from time to time and waited for the door. Nick stood up to greet him, and was full of dog-licking attitude.
And Barbara, wearing an apron, also came up and apologized on behalf of Nick: "Sorry, Lee, I heard about your affairs. This is Nick's fault. He should take responsibility, so... after we discussed last night, we did think of a solution."
"You sit first, let's talk slowly..."
"What coffee do you drink?"
The so-called "stretching your hands will not hit people with a smile".
Even if Li Qin was full of resentment, it was difficult to show Barbara's face: "You recommend it, I believe in your skills."
"It will definitely satisfy you."
This wait took another five minutes.
During this period, Nick didn't say the serious matters, but just said, "Let Barbara say it, because it was her idea."
Hey.
Awesome.
In my impression, Barbara is just a cafe owner and has no energy at all, but outsiders may have different perspectives on the problem.
After Barbara brought the coffee, Li Qin praised it after tasting it, and then started the topic: "Barbara, what's going on? Nick said he asked you to tell me."
Barbara said, "Lee, do you know Martin Heywood?"
Li Qin shook his head immediately: "I haven't heard of it."
Barbara continued: "Mr. Haywood is running for mayor of Eugene."
Hiss.
The moment before, Li Qin was confused by the couple.
Just this sentence.
The amount of information explodes.
Nick knows the mayor?
Well, even if you run for mayor, there is something!
But if there is this relationship, why not use it earlier?
Li Qin was anxious to speak, but Barbara poured a basin of cold water: "I know Mr. Heywood's campaign assistant, Ms. Dela."
Li Qin: “…”
He almost swears.
My passionate mood suddenly became cold.
But Barbara felt good about herself, seemed very confident, always smiling, and then pointed to the street opposite outside the window...
Li Qin followed the look—
【Martin Haywood Campaign Office】
It is not difficult to imagine why Barbara knew the lady who was running for the election. She may not be able to come to drink coffee often.
The so-called understanding is a friendship that lasts several times.
Is this relationship unreliable at all, okay?
certainly.
Li Qin remained calm on the surface and did not show any contempt.
Barbara continued: "Nick told me about your experience. I think we can find a way out of Ms. Dela..."
"Although Martin Haywood did not run successfully, he is still the Supreme Court of Eugene City... Through him, we can apply for complaints and complaints against the environmental regulatory authorities."
Um?
Things are not going well.
Li Qin originally thought that the couple was planning to find a relationship and went to the back door, but they found a campaign assistant to help...
But now it sounds...
Martin Haywood was originally the Supreme Court Justice of Eugene, and he was definitely a person at the center of power.
It may not work to ask him for help to undo the blockade.
But if you sue...
"What do you mean specifically?" Li Qin asked with interest.
At this time, Nick took over the conversation because Barbara had already laid the groundwork: "That's right, we signed a contract with the treatment plant before transporting the earthwork, and the treatment plant also requested our plan and submitted it to the environmental supervision department."
"But during this period, the other party did not raise any objections to the plan. We have officially started construction, but ten days after the start of construction, which seriously affected our project plan preparation and progress."
"If we re-plan the plan, it will take money, but I think this part of the responsibility should not be borne by us..."
"On the contrary, as government departments, they did not make a rectification notice immediately after receiving the plan, which was the real corpse-positioning meal!!!"
The words are over.
Li Qin almost slapped the table and stood up.
TM's!!
It's a good idea to say!
Very satisfying!!
yes.
Damn we handed over the plan, you didn’t move, you came to cause trouble after starting work. What is this not a corpse-positioning meal? What about government action and execution?
I just know that I can cause trouble for the common people, but this is just a scolding.
What's more, this involves money loss.
In the United States, the corresponding complaints are very effective.
If there is a quarrel in court...
Hohoho.
Enough for them to drink a pot.
Of course, simply put it, it is better to put pressure on the project to achieve the purpose of unsealing the project.
At this time, I didn't expect that Nick's words were not over: "In addition, we also hired twenty-two truck drivers and three excavator drivers..."
“Twenty-five short-term jobs have been created for the city of Eugene.”
"And we hired them at the highest salary in all Eugene."
"But the suspension of the project has greatly affected the income of these twenty-five citizens, and it has also affected the quality of their families' lives, which is unforgivable."
Ha ha ha ha.
Li Qin was about to laugh and scream...
Didn't see it.
Nick is also disgusted.
A few words will directly raise the problem to a higher level.
Twenty-five job opportunities seem to be very small, but as long as these four words are involved, it is definitely a serious problem.
It's no exaggeration to say...
80% or even 90% of Lao Mi have no deposits.
This also means that once people who work odd jobs lose their jobs, it will lead to difficulty in repaying their mortgage loans and the emergence of food and clothing problems.
Just these four words, it’s amazing.
Li Qin believes that the twenty-five workers who stopped working are also having a headache now.
Ten of them used rental vehicles. The car was parked on the farm and they didn't dare to take on other jobs. After all, they signed a contract in the early stage.
As for the others, the excavator did not drive away, and they did go back to their own houses when pulling the dirt truck, but the situation was the same as the contract, so they dared not do other jobs.
In fact, they were as anxious as Li Qin and needed to wait for work to get money to eat.
Li Qin wants to say...
Why didn't I expect it?
If I had known this, I would have hired a lawyer to do this.
certainly.
If Mr. Martin is allowed to operate, the pressure on the environmental regulatory authorities will be greater.
Nick said again: "My idea is very simple. If this happens, it will be good for Mr. Martin, because he solved the employment problem for our employees. Although there are only twenty-five people, there are twenty-five votes."
"I think he has a high probability of helping us, after all, this matter is not a big problem."
"Yes." Barbara was also very confident: "Ms. Dela has a good relationship with me, and she is a celebrity in front of Mr. Martin. If she is willing to speak, she will have a great chance of success."
That’s all.
Then what are you waiting for?
Chapter completed!
