Chapter 46: Lu Yuanding
"Running a business?" Harrison, who was accompanying his wife and daughter to leave, happened to hear this sentence and his eyes lit up. From this sentence, he seemed to notice a business opportunity, and the reporters who were in charge of asking questions were stunned, because they couldn't have imagined that Yan Shao, who was famous for writing novels, would answer that he was actually running an industry...
It's just that before they could continue to ask questions, Yan Shao had already left under the escort of Li Liang and others.

Early the next morning, not long after Yan Shao got up, Lu Yuanding had already taken the initiative to visit.
"Lord Lu, you are..."
Looking at Lu Yuanding, who came over early in the morning, Yan Shao was a little confused.
He couldn't figure out what Lu Yuanding, the governor of Jiangsu, wanted to do when he came over early in the morning.
Lu Yuanding did not sell Guanzi, but said to Yan Shao directly.
"I heard you want to start a business?"
"That's right." Yan Shao nodded. "I'm coming back this time for this..."
"Hmm..."Lu Yuanding groaned. I don't know where you plan to do it? β
Although Lu Yuanding is over 60 years old, since he can serve in Jiangsu, he is by no means a diehard, so he will not have any resistance to things such as running industries.
I came to Yan Shao this time, and it was because I saw in the newspaper this morning that Yan Shao was going to run an industry, so I came over to ask for clarification, and by the way, I saw if there was anything I could do to help...
Listening to Lu Yuanding's words, Yan Shao nodded and expressed his gratitude.
However, he felt that Lu Yuanding probably couldn't help much, because the place he finally chose was Anhui.
"Anhui..."
"That's right."
"Then I don't know what plan you have?" Lu Yuan Dingxiao asked with interest.
In his opinion, although Yan Shao is very famous, after all, he is only a novelist, and he probably doesn't have much experience in business and other things. However, sometimes many things can't be looked at with common sense, so Lu Yuanding is really interested.
"I'm going to set up a yarn factory..."It's not a particularly secret thing, and Yan Shaozhi didn't hide it." I'm going to set up a large-scale yarn factory in Wuhu, and by the way, I'm running an ash factory..."
Yan Shao didn't think about building an iron factory or anything from the beginning, because if he did, the movement would be too big, and it would be easy to attract attention. And the iron factory is not so easy to build, the first thing is to find the iron ore, and then to choose the site of the factory, etc., plus the investment of the iron factory itself is not small, and it takes a long time to make a profit, so it is better to build a yarn factory first...
If you run a yarn factory, the competition is fierce, but it is also very profitable.
And if you can run the yarn mill first, then you can run other factories more handy. It is more able to take the opportunity of setting up a yarn factory to cultivate some talents. After the yarn mill is profitable, if the oil field has not yet been discovered on the Tampico side, the profit of the yarn mill can also be used to lay some foundation.
As for ash plants, cement plays an extremely important role in the construction industry, even in industry. Although the profitability of cement is relatively low, the investment is relatively small, and the results are fast, so that the ash factory can be set up at the same time...

"If you want to run an industry in Anhui, it's best to have a good relationship with the governor of Anhui first..."Fingers knocked on the table, Lu Yuanding said with some seriousness.
"Do you mean Seong-hoon-sama?" Before coming, Yan Shao had already investigated, so he wouldn't know who the governor of Anhui was.
"That's right." Lu Yuanding nodded. "Speaking of which, he is also my predecessor, and he is not a stubborn person, but if you want to go smoothly in Anhui, it is best to go through his side first..."
"Going his way?" Hearing Lu Yuanding say this, Yan Shao somewhat understood.
"That's right, as long as you get through Chengxun's path, then in Anhui, you probably won't encounter any trouble." Leaning towards Yan Shao's side, Lu Yuanding pointed and said...
"Then, I wonder what hobbies that Chengxun-sama has?"
"Do you have a hobby..."Lu Yuanding twisted his beard. That guy is from a shade background, so he likes to be vassal, after you arrive in Anhui, as long as you give him some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, I believe there won't be much of a problem..."
"Antique calligraphy and painting..."Hearing Lu Yuanding say this, Yan Shao smiled bitterly.
This thing, whether it was in the past or now, he has not studied it at all, Elaline knows a little bit, but what he understands is from the West, and these things about China are actually not much different from Yan Shao...
If you rashly take the money to buy antique calligraphy and paintings, it is estimated that you will be slaughtered as a fat sheep in the end...
So after pondering for a while, Yan Shao looked at Lu Yuanding on the side.
"Lord Lu, I don't have much research on this aspect, otherwise, you can come forward to help me buy some and come back to Lord Chengxun as a gift, what do you think..."As he spoke, Yan Shao took out a check for $10,000 from his arms...
"This..." Lu Yuanding hesitated a little, but Yan Shao didn't give him a chance to act, and directly stuffed the check into Lu Yuanding's hand.
"This matter is up to you, please be sure to complete this matter before we leave Shanghai..."
Seeing that Yan Shao was so 'sincere' when he spoke, after looking at the check in his hand, Lu Yuanding also nodded heavily. "Well, in that case, I'll come forward for you, and save you from being deceived by those who open the store..."As he spoke, Lu Yuanding put the check into his arms.
Originally, he came this time just to give Yan Shao some advice, but since he paid for his help, he had no excuse to refuse. Of course, this favor must be helped, but when helping, it is natural to take some of the antiques bought home as the labor fee for this help, and he believes that Yan Shao is also very aware of this...
"What a good young man..."Looking at Yan Shao's face, which was more than 40 years younger than himself, Lu Yuanding felt a little more appreciative in his heart.
On the other hand, he lost $10,000 just after returning to China, and Yan Shao didn't feel anything other than being distressed. The reason is also very simple, because in his impression, there are few officials in this era who are not greedy. If there is no benefit, you can let people help wholeheartedly? Yan Shao is not so naΓ―ve
And in Yan Shao's opinion, if things can be solved with money, it is relatively simple...
