Chapter 21 Machines

These dozen people are not the strong men who are targeting Yan Guang, nor are they the remnants of Ruan Qi's water bandits. Ruan Qi's water band has more than 20 people, and even a few fish that have missed the net may have already hidden themselves now.

These dozen people are reporters and reporters from major newspapers in Shanghai.

There was a robbery on the Yangtze River where only fishing boats were usually robbed. It was impossible for Shanghai newspapers to stay out for such a big news, especially when there were three Chinese heroes who turned the tide on the Yangtze River.

These sophisticated newspapers understand that even if the government and the Shanghai Consulate can only get official answers, so these newspapers all focused their main forces on Yan Guang and others, and only placed second-tier reporters in the government, the Consulate and Jardine Mahjong.

When he noticed that Yan Guang and others were about to leave, the dozen or so reporters immediately followed quietly, and looked at each other with hostile eyes from time to time. Although they still had some personal relationships with each other, they were completely in the enemy position at work.

Yan Guang didn't know that behind him, more than a dozen reporters were staring at him.

These dozen reporters did not surround him at the beginning, but waited until Yan Guang got into a rickshaw and rushed up to surround Yan Guang.

"Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan, please talk about what happened on the Jiangchuan? Oh!" asked a female reporter with white face on her face and no one could tell how old she was. The last scream was that she was squeezed to the ground by another female reporter.

"Mr. Yan, how did you deal with those water bandits?"

"Aren't you afraid of the guns in the hands of the water bandits?"

"Mr. Yan, #¥#¥##¥##¥…”

“Stern¥#%¥#%#¥#..."

“#¥#¥%¥#%…”

After being surrounded by these reporters, Yan Guang seemed to have broken into a pile of flies. At first, he could hear a few questions clearly, but later he heard murmurs in his ears.

"Enough!" Yan Guang, who couldn't stand it, roared loudly, and the surroundings immediately became quiet.

Looking at the reporters who were looking at him, Yan Guang sneered. "If you want to interview, you can just pay a hundred dollars for each person..."

"………………………” Yan Guang's two bodyguards, reporters, coachman and the crowd watching around him.

――――――――――

Although the money was not received, Yan Guang finally got rid of the reporters. After booking a room at the Datong Hotel, Yan Guang took his four subordinates to rest for a while.

After resting for two days, Yan Guang and his four men relieved their fatigue, and at this time they should do serious things.

However, just when Yan Guang was planning to take the four men to various major overseas companies, Richard came to the door.

"Dear Yan, it's been a long time since we met." Richard hugged him, but Yan Guang pushed him aside.

"To be exact, it's only two days."

Richard didn't care, so he found a seat in the room and sat down.

"I was about to go out to do business, but I didn't expect you to come to the door..." Yan Guang shook his head as he looked at Richard.

"Go to buy a machine?" Richard asked with his head raised.

"That's right."

A few days after the Jianglun kidnapping case occurred, Richard once asked Yan Guang to go to his room to taste tea black tea. Although Yan Guang was not interested in black tea, he still went over and chatted with Richard for a while.

While chatting, Yan Guang once told Richard that he came to Shanghai to buy textile machines, so Richard knew the purpose of Yan Guang coming to Shanghai.

"It's a coincidence to say that." Richard smiled.

"?" Yan Guang looked at him with some confusion.

"Which foreign company are you going to buy machines?" Richard asked.

Yan Guang reported to the American foreign company he went to when he came to Shanghai last time. Of course, he was not yet 250 to only go to this company, but planned to go to other foreign companies to ask about the price.

"That family." Richard nodded. "Yan, you have saved my life on the boat. To me, you are my friend. If you Chinese say you are my life-saving benefactor..."

Yan Guang nodded.

"I also know the American foreign company you mentioned. The price of that foreign company is quite reasonable. You won't treat you as a sucker just because you are a Chinese. However, as someone who has saved your life, I recommend you to our Jardinea Central Bank to buy machines..." Richard said this and smiled proudly, touching his beardless chin. "Don't forget, I am a captain of Jardinea..."

"Oh?" Yan Guang's face was full of excitement. "Can you ask your company to send me the machine for free?"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..." After hearing Yan Guang's words, Richard, who was already full of pride, coughed. "...Of course it is impossible."

"Oh..." Yan Guang was a little disappointed.

Richard shook his head with a wry smile. "I don't have the ability to send you the machine for free, but if I ask them to sell it to you at a very cheap price, I still have this ability..." Richard glanced at Yan Guang. "How is it? Are you interested?"

Can Yan Guang have a second answer at this time?

Richard smiled and took Yan Guang and his men to Jardine Mahjong.

Jardine Mall is the oldest foreign company in China and has a five-story foreign building in Shanghai.

In the VIP room of Jardine Mahjong, Yan Guang and his four men sat on the sofa, watching Richard and a senior member of the company talking about something. After a while, Richard walked over and said, "No problem, now you can let you go and see the machine."

Yan Guang nodded, stood up and said to Richard. "Thank you."

"It's nothing, let's talk about our foreign company, which can make a little profit."

At this time, the senior class came over. "Please come with me." After learning that Yan Guang was the Chinese on the Yichang wheel, the senior class Charlie's attitude became much gentler.

After leaving the Western Building, Charlie brought Richard, Yan Guang and others to the warehouse.

"These are the latest textile machines." Charlie pointed to the machine placed in the warehouse.

"Same as I saw in a foreign company in the United States?"

"That's right." Charlie nodded. "Those Americans didn't lie to you. These machines are indeed the latest in the current style, but the prices quoted by those Americans are a little higher." Charlie smiled at this point. "If you are not the hero of Yichang wheel or not brought by Richard, the prices we give will be the same as those Americans."

Yan Guang also laughed.

"But I don't recommend these machines..." Charlie signaled Yan Guang, Richard and others to follow. "Richard and I are friends. I am very grateful to you for saving his life. Moreover, you killed most of the water bandits on the Yichang wheel, which can be regarded as a great help to our Yards company..."

Speaking of this, Charlie brought Yan Guang and others to another corner of the warehouse.

"Although those machines just now are the latest, their work efficiency is not much higher than those launched a few years ago, and the price is much higher, so what I recommend you are these machines..." Charlie opened a box in a corner, revealing a slightly old machine. "This is also the latest model, but it is the latest a few years ago, but I recommend you to buy this kind of machine..."

Yan Guang hesitated for a moment. "The work efficiency of this kind of machine? Are there people in need?"

"The number of people operating is the same, but the work efficiency is less than ten percent..." Charlie photographed the machines here. "But because these machines have been in place for more than three years, I can make the decision and sell them to you at the original half price..."

Then Charlie opened the entire wooden box and exposed the machines inside. "Don't worry, although these machines have been in stock for more than three years, they are almost the same as new ones because they are well maintained. And I heard from Richard that your funds are not very rich, and these machines should be the most suitable for you."

"Thanks…"

"Didn't I say that, I'm Richard's friend..."

With the help of Richard, Yan Guang bought three times the planned machine with 100,000 silver dollars. Although these machines are slightly worse in efficiency than those new ones, Yan Guang is still making a lot of money overall.

Moreover, Charlie assured Yan Guang that if Yan Guang wanted to expand the factory next, as long as he was still a senior in Jardinet Foreign Company and there were these machines in the warehouse, he would sell them to Yan Guang at half price just like now, and even if only those new machines were left, they would sell them to him at a relatively low price.

The person responsible for transporting Jardines is also Jardines. Because Yan Guang had that special boat ticket, and with the senior team and Richard coming forward, although the goods were transported this time, Jardines still gave Yan Guang a half discount.

At the same time, Charlie and Richard also came forward to help Yan Guang contact some foreign technicians. Compared with other Chinese companies who paid high salaries but attracted a group of money but did not contribute. Richard and Charlie promised that this group of Chinese workers would never wear Yan Guang's hair, and would try their best to help Yan Guang train the workers in the shortest time.

After buying three times the machine at the same price and saving some expenses in transportation, Yan Guang's funds on hand were much more abundant than before, and there were also a group of relatively dedicated foreign workers. Now Yan Guang's only concern is whether the factories he had built were enough. If they were not enough, they would probably have to be temporarily expanded.

It can be said that with the help of Richard and Charlie, Yan Guang completed a thing that he could not do in a month in a week, and saved a lot of money. In a sense, this may be considered a good person to be rewarded.

When Yan Guang finished handling all the things in Shanghai, it was more than a week later. During this period, except for being busy outside, Yan Guang spent the rest of his time in the hotel room. However, during this period, no one named Wang Er came to the door, even if he came to seek revenge...

"Oh, it seems that I really don't have any ox spirit..." Yan Guang sighed after looking up at the ceiling that had been looking at for more than a week.

Just then, a knock came from outside the door. "Boss, someone is looking for you..."
