The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 558

“Two companies are in charge of Area One—Serenity Group and Ditto Group. The person in charge of Serenity Group's construction team is Ianto Jarlberg. He used to be part of the underground circles in Pollerton. The person in charge of Ditto Group's construction team is Bacco Jasek, who graduated overseas. Both construction teams often got into minor conflicts. Today, Bacco discovered Ianto's team didn't carry out the reinforcement construction as specified and refused to pour the concrete. They are currently engaged in a fight.”

To enhance the stability of a high-rise building, reinforcing bars and concrete would usually be used as its main structure.

Since concrete was cheap and only cost a few hundred for a huge sack, no one would try to substitute it for subpar materials.

However, it was different for reinforcing bars. The price for reinforcing bars depended on their weight. One could save a lot of money if one were to cut down ten reinforcing bars per floor.

Hence, many project managers preferred hiring experienced construction workers not because they were good at their job but because they knew the unspoken rules of the construction site.

For example, if a particular floor needed over four hundred reinforcing bars according to the blueprint, the construction workers would only use around three hundred reinforcing bars tacitly. They would then bribe the supervisor to pour the concrete over the structure so that no one would realize what they had done. The project manager and other higher-ups could divide the remaining money between them this way.

Ianto's team consisted of such construction workers. He had also bribed the company's supervisor.

It was a done deal, and all there was left to do was to pour concrete over the structure.

However, Bacco refused to do so as the person in charge of concrete.

Ianto did his best to convince Bacco to change his mind and even offered him a bribe, but the latter insisted on doing things according to the blueprint.
