Wasteland Border Inspector - Chapter 852

Chapter 852: Chapter 279: Liu Bi Emerges, A New Era Begins!

Like Niu Fu, who carries the title of a Public Works Bureau driver externally, he can receive the bureau’s salary and also get additional allowances from the inspection station.

Unfortunately, other clerks under Cheng Long all participated in that “disaster” back then, and now the small group only has him and Niu Fu left relying on each other.

The two of them walked out of the office, heading familiarly towards the logistics dispatch area.

It’s somewhat like a modern bus station; every Satellite City has a dedicated warehouse here for storing goods to be transported.

The logistics area never stops operating.

From six in the morning to nine at night, trucks come and go incessantly, transporting large quantities of newly-produced goods to various Satellite Cities. From nine at night to six the next morning, designated personnel transfer the requested resources from various factories to these logistics warehouses in batches, preparing for the next day’s distribution.

Arriving in front of the warehouse marked “Dapo Town” number sixteen, the staff inside were busy loading the trucks.

Inspector Liu stepped forward and checked the boxes one by one; they contained exclusively top-tier materials he personally confirmed yesterday, without any adulteration.

“Good, make sure to pack them securely,” he instructed. “These are crucial materials for the power station, don’t let them get damaged on the road.”

“Yes, Inspector Liu!” the staff responded in unison, becoming even more careful with their actions.

This batch of materials began loading at six in the morning, and after three full hours of work, all were properly loaded onto the trucks, but it was delayed until one-thirty in the afternoon.

At this moment, Steward Zhang, responsible for the logistics warehouse, came over with a thick list: “Inspector Liu, here is the material list for this delivery, please verify.”

For the materials sent to Dapo Town these days, Inspector Liu personally verifies each time, ensuring nothing is missed or wrong. Steward Zhang is used to it.

“Let me see.” Inspector Liu took over the list, comparing each item with the materials on the truck. After confirming everything was correct, he smiled at Steward Zhang and said, “Steward Zhang, it’s really troublesome for you these days. Thank you for your hard work.”

“Inspector Liu, you’re too kind.” Steward Zhang waved his hand quickly, “It’s precisely because you keep an eye on things that the logistics warehouse for Dapo Town is managed well. You see, the other warehouses constantly have people from Satellite Cities causing issues about material quality or quantity, but we never have such troubles here. Colleagues from other warehouses are envious.”

“Hehe.” Inspector Liu scratched his head, laughing a bit embarrassedly.

He knew well that people from other Satellite Cities came to complain because defective goods were often mixed into the deliveries.

And no one came to complain at Dapo Town simply because he was there to address any issues on the spot, so there’s no chance for disputes to escalate.

“After I leave, I probably won’t be coming here for a while.” Inspector Liu put away his smile and seriously advised, “The subsequent material needs for Dapo Town will require Steward Zhang’s attention, keep the standards as they are when I’m here, don’t lower them even slightly. Otherwise, I might come back anytime to address it.”

“Inspector Liu, rest assured!” Steward Zhang patted his chest and assured, “After you leave, I’ll follow your rules, ensuring all materials are checked more than three times before loading, and after loading, rechecked twice, confirming no issues before sealing the boxes and dispatching the trucks.”

“Thank you!”

Inspector Liu solemnly clasped his hands to Steward Zhang before getting on the truck and took up a pen to swiftly sign off the thick stack of handover documents Steward Zhang handed over.

Niu Fu, watching from the side, clicked his tongue repeatedly, and after the two got on the leading truck, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Brother Bi, you’ve invested all your savings accumulated over the years into developing Dapo Town?”

“I didn’t have much to begin with, just a total of forty thousand Contribution Points, not even matching some Third-stage Inspectors’ allowances.”

Inspector Liu showed no change in expression and was indifferent to the topic of his “bankruptcy,” “I’m unattached, don’t need to spend in the Inner City, nor have any major expenses; these Contribution Points are just numbers to me. But Dapo Town urgently needs money and materials now. Brother Long didn’t leave any money when he left, Cheng Ye must be under more pressure than we imagined.”

He calculated clearly in his mind that these forty thousand Contribution Points might help a bit in Dapo Town’s initial stage, but once the town is on track, the money won’t make even a ripple.

Just like the current batch of materials being trucked to the power station, with a total value up to ninety-seven thousand Contribution Points.

Might as well invest everything during the crucial start-up phase to help Cheng Ye take a solid first step.

“Indeed.” Niu Fu nodded deeply in agreement, “I’ve been hearing people talk about the major changes in Dapo Town these days, didn’t feel quite real until now, finally going over for a firsthand look.”

He shifted the subject and asked, “Should we first give Inspector Cheng a call and tell him?”

“No need, let’s go directly and give him a surprise.” Inspector Liu quickly shook his head.

If told in advance, Cheng Ye might arrange a welcoming party at the town’s entrance, an awkward scene to think about.

Niu Fu nodded in response and promptly picked up the walkie-talkie, methodically directing the five trucks to slowly drive out of the logistics area.

As the convoy reached the outpost inspection station, the changes on the road were already visible to the naked eye.

“This road has indeed undergone major repairs!”

Inspector Liu leaned out and scrutinized. Three months ago, when he came to the industrial area, this highway was barely level; especially the section between the industrial area and the power station was left unrefurbished for safety and had to traverse roughly five kilometers of jungle.
