Chapter 299 She is as useful as ten people

That’s true.

If they don’t stick to their stance and change the members who go into the mountains, and if something really happens, what should they say when the old guys from the Cultural Relics Bureau come to settle accounts with them?
Minister Song was silent.

Zhang Xiangdong couldn’t think of a good solution either.

Jiang Tang did have a solution, but since they didn’t ask, she didn’t know whether to tell them or not.

It was Zhang Xiangdong who noticed her and asked her to speak up.

Minister Song also quickly asked Jiang Tang if there was any good idea.

If we can prevent those old stubborn people from going into the mountains, can we also not hold them accountable?
“It’s very simple!”

“Just let them know they’re useless.”

Jiang Tang said this very easily.

Minister Song was thinking, how can we make the archaeological experts of the Cultural Relics Bureau ineffective?
Zhang Xiangdong thought of the conversation between him and Jiang Tang when they were in school.

“Comrade Xiao Jiang is also interested in archaeology?”

Minister Song’s eyes lit up.

Jiang Tang looked at Zhang Xiangdong blankly.

“Isn’t this trip into the mountains just about finding a place?”

“Do we need to open and dig after we find the place?”

Minister Song quickly replied, “No, no, we just need to find a place and make sure it exists.”

“That’s it!”

“I can find a place.”

Jiang Tang’s idea was simple and crude.

When archaeologists and geologists go into the mountains, they are just there to help find a place.

There’s no need to dig, so who can’t do it?

As long as the ultimate goal can be achieved, isn’t it?

Minister Song and Zhang Xiangdong were also overthinking, and their thoughts blocked their vision.

Now that Jiang Tang said this, they finally reacted.

Yes, as long as the ultimate goal is achieved.

“Xiao Jiang is really smart. I’ll do as you say.”

They did have enough trust in Jiang Tang.

However, he might not be able to convince Director Chen alone, so he thought of asking Jiang Tang to go with him to explain.

“Comrade Jiang Tang, could you please make another trip?”

Minister Song asked.

Jiang Tang blinked, “Is he in good health?”

She was asking about the person she was going to meet.

Minister Song was stunned. “What’s wrong?”

Why does going out to explain this have anything to do with whether your health is good or not?

Jiang Tang explained seriously, “I don’t talk to people who are not in good health.”

“Otherwise they will be so angry that they will blame me.”

Minister Song…

Zhang Xiangdong…

Director Chen shouldn’t be so exaggerated, right?

About half an hour later, they arrived at the Cultural Relics Bureau and met the legendary Director Chen.

After hearing their purpose, the other party glanced at the three of them coldly.

“Minister Song, is this the attitude of your military?”

“You would rather trust a yellow-haired girl than the professionals in our unit?”

“Are you really concerned about the safety of our comrades, or are you just trying to take all the credit?”

Director Chen’s words were not very polite.

Minister Song and Zhang Xiangdong were reluctant to confront him directly.

Jiang Tang looked confused, “Are you talking about me, little yellow-haired girl?”

Minister Song smiled and was about to explain, but Director Chen interrupted him and said, “You are quite self-aware.”

“Director Chen…”

Zhang Xiangdong was a little unhappy. Even though Director Chen was a leader, he was only a leader of other units. They came to discuss with him sincerely, but he treated them like this?

If it weren’t for the fact that Minister Song and Director Chen have some friendship, Zhang Xiangdong would not be polite.

Minister Song’s face darkened after hearing Director Chen’s impolite words.

“Director Chen, since we said we don’t need your help, it means we are confident enough.”

“As for Comrade Xiao Jiang’s abilities, you don’t need to worry about them.”

Even though Minister Song is now working in a civilian position, the courage he acquired on the front lines is still there.

Speaking of military personnel in such an unpleasant way in front of him, everyone has a temper.

The original plan to have a good discussion and then have archaeological experts follow up after they found the place was aborted because of Director Chen’s attitude.

“I will report this matter to my superiors.”

Minister Song spoke.

Director Chen also understood that they were determined to get rid of them.

He snorted with a sneer, “Alright, I want to see what you guys are capable of.”

“Let me be frank with you. If you can’t find a place, don’t come to us for help in the future.”

“We can’t afford to cooperate with big Buddhas like you.”

The reason why the Cultural Relics Bureau wanted to participate was because they did not want to miss the opportunity to make merit.

As for the possibility of danger in the mountains? That was not within Director Chen’s consideration.

With protection, even if something happens, the military will be the first to go. They are responsible for following behind to find the place. If they find it, they will take the credit. If they can’t find it, there will be no loss.

No one would be willing to give up such a good thing.

Now that he saw this opportunity to make a contribution slipping away, Director Chen’s attitude was naturally very bad.

But apart from getting angry, he had no other choice.

“Don’t worry, Director Chen, nothing like this will happen.” Minister Song is also a man of integrity.

Now that we’ve fallen out, there’s no need to stay here any longer.

He said goodbye and left with Zhang Xiangdong and Jiang Tang.

Behind me, I heard the sound of Director Chen slamming a book on the table.

Minister Song…

Jiang Tang was a little curious, “Why is he angry?”

She couldn’t understand, “We are rescuing his men, he should be happy.”

The way she looks at things is different from the way other people look at things.

Zhang Xiangdong explained with a smile, “Maybe he just felt that he missed an opportunity to make a contribution.”

“Meritorious service?”

Jiang Tang felt even more confused.

“Before thinking about making a contribution, shouldn’t he consider whether he has the chance to leave the mountain alive?”

Why don’t you want risk, but only want honor?
I don’t understand.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiangdong looked at Minister Song and found that he didn’t say anything and didn’t seem to object, so he explained to Jiang Tang again.

“You forgot that the main purpose of our going in is to protect them.”

“With more than a dozen of us brothers leading the way, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, no one will be unable to make it out.”

When he said this, Jiang Tang understood everything.

“So I’m treating you as a stepping stone, a scapegoat?”

Zhang Xiangdong…

Although it is true, it is still a bit hard to accept when said this.

“Comrade Xiao Jiang…”

“But isn’t this a military secret? Why would outside units know about it?”

Jiang Tang is like a curious baby.

When this was mentioned, Minister Song’s face turned red unnaturally.

He coughed, raised his hand to cover his mouth, and stammered, “This is my fault.”

“When I was forming the team, I asked Lao Chen if he had any good people to loan to us for a few days…”

Director Chen is a smart man and he understood the hidden meaning of Minister Song’s words.

In addition, Minister Song was also thinking that he needed the cooperation of the people from the Cultural Relics Bureau to find the treasure house mentioned in the notes in the vast mountains…
