Yan Aohan looked at Zhu Shunyao with a mix of amusement and helplessness. "Uncle Shunyao, why do you trust me so much?"
"What's the big deal? You're not just anyone. You're Little Yan. I've known you for years, and I know you well. I might be a bit slow, but I can tell a good person from a bad one. You're not the type to hurt people," Zhu Shunyao said directly. Poor Zhu Shunyao still didn't realize that Yan Aohan’s politeness had its own agenda. By the time Yan Aohan’s true intentions surfaced, it would be too late for Zhu Shunyao to make things difficult. He would only regret it then, wishing he hadn't trusted this 'wolf' so easily.
Yan Aohan smiled faintly but didn't reveal his hidden motives. He simply said, "Since Uncle Shunyao trusts me so much, I’ll tell you my plan." He continued, "I’ve thought it over. I will take full responsibility for the logistics company and the security company. They will operate under my name, and I will let everyone know that I am the boss behind the scenes. However, the specific operations will rely on you, Uncle Shunyao. You will be the public face and the official boss."
"I'm the public boss?" Zhu Shunyao pointed at himself. "But I’m not good at management."
"That’s exactly what I want to discuss," Yan Aohan said seriously. "Uncle Shunyao, you already have quite a few factories running. One for pickled vegetables, one for packaging. And I heard you plan to open a fruit processing factory as well, is that right?"
"Yes, that’s the plan. My fruit harvest will be abundant next year. If I only sell fresh fruit, some will inevitably go to waste. So, I thought it best to set up a fruit processing factory to make canned fruit or dried fruit preserves. Ani even found the recipe for the dried fruit preserves for me. We tried making a small batch privately last time, and it tasted quite good. So, I think this venture won’t fail. If this goes smoothly, I plan to open a tea factory the year after next. I’ve contracted several mountain slopes. Not only are there many fruit trees, but there are also many tea trees, covering a large area. They can’t be harvested for the next two years, but the first batch of tea will be ready the year after next. So, I plan to process it myself. Gradually, the product line will expand." Thinking about his business, Zhu Shunyao felt full of energy.
Yan Aohan nodded slightly. This spirit was exactly what he admired in Zhu Shunyao. "Although all your factories rely on agricultural products, the types of products you produce are different. Therefore, each factory and workshop has its own unique characteristics. So, I suggest you establish a group company directly."
"You have the same idea as my Ani," Zhu Shunyao blurted out.
Yan Aohan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Ani mentioned this too?"
Zhu Shunyao nodded. "Last time Ani came back, she told me about this. She said that instead of opening so many separate factories, it would be better to merge them into the Azure Sovereign Qingdi Group. This would make unified management easier."
"Azure Sovereign Qingdi? What a good name," Yan Aohan laughed. "In that case, let’s establish the Azure Sovereign Qingdi Group. The logistics and security companies will be registered under the Azure Sovereign Qingdi Group. You will be the public chairman and boss, while I will hold the actual control. I will send qualified personnel to manage these two companies. Does that work for you?"
"Sure, why not?" Zhu Shunyao agreed immediately, looking relaxed. "I’ve never been patient with this kind of management anyway. I’d rather be in the fields tending to those crops."
