Yan Rushan smiled but said nothing. He had made up his mind to tell her, "Take a look at the other clothes and see if you like them. The shoes are custom-made. They have white auspicious cloud-patterned soles. They will go well with the peony skirt."
"The colors match well," Zhong Yuxiu agreed. "Have you ever thought about opening a shoe factory? If they match the clothes you sell, and complement each other, you might get unexpected results."
Clothes and shoes are sold together, which saves some rich people the trouble of matching them, and they can wear them out right after buying them.
"Your idea is very good. I will seriously consider it." His handsome face was smiling, and his eyes were full of doting.
Zhong Yuxiu stopped talking and picked up other clothes. They were made of green fabric with ruffled sleeves and collars; flared trousers and leather shoes. They were all produced by Yan Rushan's garment factory. In the past year, Yan Rushan's garment factory has made a lot of money. He leads the domestic fashion in clothing, pioneers innovations, and injects fresh blood into the blank domestic clothing market.
Before Yan Rushan's garment factory was established, people in China either liked monotonous colors or preferred foreign clothes. After Yan Rushan's continuous efforts, people in China preferred clothes with their own characteristics, and some people who blindly followed the trend began to give up foreign clothes.
This is a good thing, one country suits one dress.
If people in our country don’t like our country’s clothes and traditional culture, how can we make foreigners like them?
After trying the clothes on her body one by one and feeling that they all fit, Zhong Yuxiu put them down. She turned her head and saw Yan Rushan sitting next to her. While accompanying her, he also did not forget to protect her. A warm current flowed through her heart and she was immersed in the warm sunshine of happiness.
"Brother Yan, you are still dealing in aquatic products. Have you ever thought about starting a transportation chain?"
"Transport chain?"
This was the first time Yan Rushan had heard of this thing, and his interest was piqued. "Wife, can you tell me more about it?"
Zhong Yuxiu was indifferent to this. She leaned back on the sofa, stroking her belly with both hands, and spoke slowly.
"The company's business is growing, and its sales reach is expanding. You haven't given up on the food business either, so why not set up a transportation company? It could be responsible for transporting the company's goods, and you could also take orders from outside, killing two birds with one stone." After a pause, seeing that he was listening intently, she continued, "Once the transportation company is big enough, we can take orders from all over the country, from small items to tons of cargo."
"The aquatic products we sell now can also be transported using the transport chain, but this requires ice storage; the cold chain transportation process depends on how you can do it."
"So, transportation is also a profitable business, not only convenient for the company but also affordable for the public?" If this is successful, we can open subsidiaries and transportation points all over the country...
The more Yan Rushan thought about it, the more his heart surged. "I understand. The charter needs to be redrafted. The charter of the transportation chain cannot follow the current company charter."
"You can use the route from Shangjing to Province S as an operating point. The conditions aren't mature yet. We can use trains and planes for transportation. We'll use planes for items with a short shelf life, and trains for items with a long shelf life. At each transportation point, they'll be responsible for inventorying the goods. I think with your connections, you can do it."
Otherwise, she would not have made the suggestion.
"You're right, but the plane might not be very convenient. The planes from Beijing don't go to every city. We're not sure when they'll take off, so we can't deliver fresh items. We'll send those that are more than a month old first." He mapped out a rough blueprint in his mind and excitedly shook her hand. "Wife, you're so smart. You're worthy of being my good wife."
It was thanks to his wife's constant advice and support that he was able to expand the company in a short period of time.
Many people these days are still struggling to make a living, but he is already worth a million, and his several factories make a lot of profit every month. Even after dividing the profits among other brothers, his profits are still huge. When the shares were initially distributed, he held 60% of the shares, making him the company's largest shareholder.
But they can take charge of the company's affairs. To put it bluntly, the brothers have shares and help manage the company, but they do not have much decision-making power.
"As long as you know what's going on," she continued, slowly exploring step by step. She believed Yan Rushan could do a good job, just like his current company. "By the way, I have a lot of money, and I don't know where to spend the company's annual dividends. Can you set up a charitable foundation and donate to orphanages and schools? That way, poor students can have access to education, and orphans can have a relatively friendly childhood."
She had been postponing her charity work for more than two years and she didn't want to wait any longer.
At the beginning, she gave money to Yan Rushan, and Yan Rushan gave her 10% of the shares, which became the basis for annual dividends.
"Once the charitable foundation is established, it will need to donate a large sum of money every year." Yan Rushan asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Zhong Yuxiu nodded without hesitation. "I've thought about this a long time ago and mentioned it to you before. Rather than letting the money rot in my hands, it's better to put it to good use. Furthermore, if the charitable foundation is registered under your company's name, it will bring you endless benefits in the future."
A person with a strong background, strong savvy, and a desire to help society; would the higher-ups dislike such talent? No, they really like such people; this is an intangible asset.
Under her guidance, Yan Rushan thought more deeply and found that it was just as she said; there is nothing wrong in giving back to society to the best of one's ability, and it can also lay a solid foundation and a good reputation for the Yan family.
"Let's do it, but... we're just getting started. We can only set up three test sites first. Once we're sure it's feasible, we'll slowly expand to the surrounding areas. Wife, do you understand me?"
"You can't become fat in one bite, you have to walk steadily."
Yan Rushan's lips curled slightly, his handsome face smiling. "That's right. Instead of rushing to expand our business and causing chaos, it's better to take one step at a time. Our company has too many things to manage, and the transportation company and charity foundation need a lot of manpower. We have to carefully search for these people."
Whether it is a transportation company or a charitable foundation, it must be taken over by a trustworthy person.
Several factories and subsidiaries prosper and suffer together, and there is no room for negligence in management.
"Wu Chao's personality makes him suitable for a charity foundation, while Cao Zheng is smart and could start by managing the transportation company," Zhong Yuxiu suggested. Yan Rushan thought about it and realized it made sense. "But they still have to manage the company's affairs."
Zhong Yuxiu shrugged and said, "There's no contradiction. I have two jobs."
"So..." Yan Rushan was tempted. "Then let them try. After all, they are taking dividends from the company, so they have to take responsibility."
"That's it."
Wu Chao and Cao Zheng didn't know yet that their path for the next few years had been determined by this couple.
The couple looked at each other and smiled, showing their perfect understanding.
