Stone Men I

At the Henraux quarries, Michele, Mario and Luca must identify the best qualities of marble in order to satisfy the requests of Paolo Carli who grapples with a large order from New York.

Michele's new duties, promoted to manager of the entire Cervaiole, have not proved sufficient to resolve the problems of material supply to the Base.

Paolo Carli, grappling with the production problems of the Russia quarry, decides to experiment with an innovative technique. Enrico and Michele welcome this novelty with skepticism, nevertheless they multiply their efforts to extract the material necessary for company orders.

At Henraux, Barbara desperately attempts to prepare the pieces to be displayed for order 555, however, the material is unfortunately insufficient and Paolo is forced to intervene to mediate the inspector's requests.

On the quarries of Monte Altissimo in Tuscany, the men of Henraux are making the maximum effort to complete the company orders, without which the entire company would be in crisis.

The men of Henraux are in a showdown. Raul, the feared inspector of the 555 order from NYC is no longer willing to endure delivery delays and asks Paolo to take him up the mountain to ensure that the material extracted from the Russian quarry will be sufficient.
