Chapter 226: Promoting the Boss
"The rice in the experimental field he was in charge of is growing well, and he is healthier now than when he just finished the course. It has been three months since that incident. Has there been any unusual movement in the research team that wanted to recruit him?" Harold asked.
"No, we have already controlled them and the sponsors behind them. They explained the whole story, and no one took the initiative to mention Murtada.
Bandak, who wanted to trick Murtada into joining the team, was attacked by a monster and is still lying in the Health House—"
At this point, Senor glanced at Harold, who shrugged and gave a helpless smile, saying, "I don't want to either. Isn't there a better way?"
Seno retracted his gaze and continued, "He didn't mention Murtada, probably because he was worried that tricking his classmates into participating in the banned research would increase his charges. It was not until we told him that we knew the cause and effect of their attack that he told us the whole truth.
The same was true for others in their team, some of whom believed that he was not officially on board and had nothing to do with their research.
Some people learned the details when they visited Bandak, and heard that Murtada chose to follow the scholar who saved them - that is, you, to study because of "excessive fear".
They thought Murtada was a stranger to them, and the information about him was not even of the type that could help them reduce their sentences, so they did not mention it again.
"It seems that my plan is going well." said Harold.
Senor agreed, "That's true. After the monster attack, many scholars in the House of Religion paid attention to the incident. The two survivors, especially Murtada who was not seriously injured, were the subject of their discussion.
However, after Murtada's friends brought back Murtada's account of the situation at the time and his future plans from the Health Home, the scholars' curiosity was satisfied and their enthusiasm gradually faded.
"It's time to find the right time to bring him back into the public eye. His father and friends must be eager to see him again," said Haroldt.
Murtada and Radu have already planted the rice seedlings and applied fertilizers. The rice fields are thriving. It is only right to let Murtada go back for a few days to visit his family, Harold thought.
"I agree with your point of view. Originally, when the Ministry of Education announced the 'public destruction of the Court of Silence', it would have been a perfect opportunity for him to return to Xumi City, but due to an unexpected situation, this matter was postponed."
Senor said with a hint of regret, "I will observe and remind the Great Sage in real time. I think this matter will not be delayed for too long. I also hope to get a positive answer as soon as possible to prevent more people from embarking on a road to death."
Harold nodded silently.
After Harold, no more explosions occurred in other places, and the event ended quickly.
Seno and Setare returned to their posts with the sorted information. The House of Representatives had strengthened the monitoring of the staff working in the House of Representatives because of the smuggling of books.
So after returning to their workplace, they first took out the extra materials they had and looked through them, took some notes, and in their spare time went to the Palace of Wisdom to borrow a few related books in case Azar became suspicious.
Kavi and Harold were transported to the research institute in the chemical city through the teleportation anchor point at home. After greeting Dishia and looking at the newly born flowers, Kavi rode on the pack animal and went to the residential area to guide the workers in building Harold's greenhouse.
The project started at the beginning of this year and is now almost completed. Harold has seen Kavi's drawings and is sure that it is very solid. He has also visited the residential area several times in his spare time.
The huge project and the new glass materials used in the building attracted the attention of a group of residents.
As the buildings were gradually completed, more and more people visited the construction site. At first, they were only interested in the building materials, but later they were attracted by the novel appearance of the two buildings and wanted to see what they would look like.
Harold handed Kavi his toolbox after he got on the pack animal. Kavi took the box and waved to Harold: "Please pick me up tomorrow at five o'clock. I will tell you if there is anything in advance."
"Okay, have a safe trip, senior." Harold agreed.
Kawi rode his pack animal to the construction site in the residential area. Some workers waiting to change shifts were sitting on a row of steel pipes to rest.
Several children who lived nearby picked up a few small stones and hid behind a tree to throw at a piece of tempered glass that was leaning against the wall. They were standing far away, so they didn't hit the glass even after throwing several stones.
The workers pretended not to see anything and continued chewing grass stems and chatting and laughing.
Finally, a stone hit the glass, making a crisp "duang!" sound, and several children immediately ran away screaming.
"That's right!"
“Wow! Got it!”
The workers sitting nearby laughed happily, and their shouts attracted back the children who had run not far away. Several children looked at the glass curiously and found that its tilt angle had just changed slightly, but it was not broken.
What the adults say is true!
They wanted to run closer in surprise to take a closer look, but were afraid of the adults sitting nearby, so they could only glance timidly.
"You've never seen glass like this, have you, boys? Come closer and touch it!"
"There's a small hammer next to it. Yes, that's it! Pick it up and hit it. It won't break. Do you believe it?"
The workers were laughing and talking. They really enjoyed seeing the curious and shocked looks of the nearby residents. Asking people to look at the glass had almost become a pastime for them after work.
"really?"
"let me try."
The children then came over, and one of the brave ones had already picked up the hammer.
"Harder!"
"Yes, use more force!"
The kid holding the hammer nodded and smashed it with all his strength, but he felt like he was hitting a tree with a hammer. The elastic force made him scream "Ah" and he instinctively dropped the hammer.
"Boy, you're not using any effort!"
"Who's next?"
...
A few adults nearby started to make a fuss again.
...
This was the scene Kavi saw when he arrived at the construction site. Seeing how happy they were, he waited for a while until everyone had finished a round before he led the beast of burden forward.
Kavi: What is this doing?
Several workers who had been laughing happily just now immediately stood up and brushed the dust off their buttocks.
"Propaganda... propaganda for the boss!" A worker laughed and came up with a good excuse.
He knew that their employer was a partner of the glass manufacturer and that this new type of glass was their latest invention which they had not yet promoted.
