Chapter 511 A Refined Young Lady from the Republican Era Gets the Male and Female Protagonists Killed (13)

The reason why the Zhang mother and daughter couldn't find this guesthouse was because it was reserved for special guests.

This means that only guests who meet the criteria are eligible to stay.

Because of the thriving BH City Chamber of Commerce, businessmen from all over the world gather here.

The most powerful of them all is the Beilou Chamber of Commerce, which occupies half of the commercial sector in BH City.

This guesthouse was built with funds from the Beilou Chamber of Commerce and is exclusively for business tycoons from all over the world to stay.

Jin Shu was able to move in because of the dozen or so shops she owned.

She hadn't been back for five years. The shops were doing quite well, but because she hadn't paid much attention to these business matters before, she never really looked into them.

When the Zhang family saw her attitude, they naturally assumed that her shops were just inconspicuous little stores. In addition, Jin Shu usually stayed at home and wore the most simple and low-key clothes and jewelry, which made the Zhang mother and daughter even more convinced that she was down on her luck.

However, these dozen or so shops that were not looked down upon by others were enough to make the vice president of the Beilou Chamber of Commerce look at her with new respect.

On the afternoon of the day she checked in, the vice president of the Beilou Chamber of Commerce sent Jin Shu an invitation letter.

All business elites in BH City were invited to attend this business association meeting.

Jin Shu didn't want to participate at first, but then she thought that since there was such a good opportunity, she might as well make the most of it and maybe even carry on the family fortune left by her parents.

When Jin Shu arrived, the vice president, who was originally toasting with others, came to greet her personally.

"Mr. Jin, is that right? I recognized you at first glance. At such a young age, you already own prime shops on both sides of the Qin River in Suzhou. You are truly a young man of great promise."

"It's just an inheritance left by our parents."

“I’ve met your father once before. I never imagined that so many years have passed and his daughter would have grown up so much.”

Jin Shu spoke with the BH City business tycoon in front of her in a humble yet assertive manner.

Even though this big shot was somewhat enthusiastic and treated her well, Jin Shu knew very well that her family's few shops were simply not enough in front of this real big shot.

His enthusiasm clearly stemmed from something else.

Sure enough, the other person replied with a similar response.

"Suzhou's embroidery is unparalleled in the world. Among them, the Jin family's embroidery workshop has the longest history. Suzhou embroidery is most sought after by foreigners."

Now that the BH City Chamber of Commerce is interested in joining forces with the Suzhou City Chamber of Commerce to develop silk embroidery, I was just wondering where to start when I met Boss Jin.

"I wonder if Mr. Jin would be interested in collaborating with our Beilou Chamber of Commerce to jointly promote the Suzhou embroidery craft in Suzhou?"

No wonder.

Jin Shu had also heard that foreigners nowadays like domestic embroidered textiles. If an industrial chain could be formed to directly transport domestic textiles abroad, the business prospects would be very bright.

"Don't worry, if you're willing, you can join our Beilou Chamber of Commerce and enjoy all the benefits of being a member. You can also open branches in Beihai for your family's jade, embroidery, food, and other products."

With our Beilou Chamber of Commerce as your guarantor, local businessmen certainly wouldn't dare to ostracize you.

Now that things have come to this point, it would be incredibly ungrateful of Jin Shu not to agree.

There are quite a few Suzhou embroidery factories in Suzhou, but they are all small factories with low output.

It just so happens that the Jin family's Jin Family Embroidery Workshop has a long history, having been established as early as the time of Jin Shu's great-grandmother. All the processes, from dyeing to embroidery, are controlled by the Jin family.

The shop is small now, but with the help of the Beilou Chamber of Commerce, it's only a matter of time before this business grows.

He could choose someone else if he didn't choose the Kim family.

So, it's quite lucky that Jin Shu caught his eye. She happened to be staying at the Beilou Chamber of Commerce's guesthouse, and it just so happened that this vice president was an old acquaintance of Jin Shu's father.

And most importantly, Jin Shu is still young, the Jin family has no powerful backing, and she is just a girl. Looking at the entire Su City, there is simply no embroidery shop owner who is easier to control than Jin Shu.

Jin Shu immediately understood the implications.

You need to understand things clearly and think them through. No matter what, this will benefit her, so agreeing to it first is never a bad thing.

The vice president was surprised that Jin Shu, a lady from a prominent family, knew so much about business.

His every word and action was poised and graceful, and the entire chat lasted for more than an hour. Even after it ended, the vice president was still somewhat reluctant to leave.

"Then it's settled. The contract can be signed today."

"Then I'll thank Chairman Zhao here."

After the contract was signed, Jin Shu's Jin's Embroidery Workshop was temporarily placed under the name of the Beilou Chamber of Commerce.

This is the price of joining a chamber of commerce: to facilitate the chamber's management, or to put it bluntly, to make it easier for the chamber to control the business, you have to put your property rights in the chamber's name.

Jin Shu signed a one-year contract. After signing, the Beilou Chamber of Commerce gave her a check for a total of 50,000 silver dollars.

This money is for her to expand Jin's Embroidery Workshop.

With such a large organization as the Beilou Chamber of Commerce and so many shops affiliated with it, it naturally has substantial funds.

Jin Shu really didn't expect them to be so generous with the money.

Even if the money is paid, the business can't be left unfinished. The vice president said that the first batch of goods should be delivered in three months.

There are currently more than 70 embroiderers in Jin's Embroidery Workshop. After receiving the money, Jin Shu took the train back to Suzhou the next day. Instead of rushing to do anything, she went to Suzhou Bank and borrowed an additional 20,000 yuan, which she invested in two small factories: Jin's Embroidery Workshop and Jin's Shipbuilding.

Previously, they were all small factories, but now that they have money, they can finally expand aggressively.

After making the arrangements here, Jin Shu returned to BH City.

The two cities are right next to each other, and Jin Shu's factory is located almost on the border of BH City. If she had a car, Jin Shu could easily make a round trip within half a day.

Nowadays, a Ford costs about four thousand dollars, and you also need a driver. Monthly maintenance, fuel, and other expenses still require nearly fifty dollars.

In the past, Jin Shu would definitely have been reluctant to part with it, but now it's probably because she's in a good mood after the divorce, or maybe it's because she found that the factories she returned to were doing well.

She couldn't manage so many shops, and it took up too much of her energy.

After selling three of her less profitable shops, Jin Shu had an extra 20,000 yuan in cash.

When you have money, you have to spend it.

Thus, Jin Shu acquired her first car, a Ford sedan imported from England, and a driver she hired at great expense.

In this way, even if she goes back to Beihai to stay at night and is busy in Suzhou during the day, she can manage perfectly well.

In addition, she has an extra twenty-four hours.

This time was incredibly precious to Jin Shu, so precious that she couldn't bear to waste a single second.
