This matter was considered settled after the letter of intent was signed.
Neither Yu Zhou nor Chen Aiguo had any room for regret.
Of course, if someone were to deliberately disrupt the deal, there might have been unexpected incidents before the money arrived, but such incidents were extremely rare.
Consequently, after Chen Aiguo had Yu Zhou show him around Jiangbei for a long time, he returned to Jin Province to prepare the funds.
Even now, he was still a boss with immense cash flow.
However, to suddenly produce tens of millions of yuan required some preparation time.
It wasn't that he couldn't afford it if he went all out; even four or five times that amount wouldn't be difficult.
But to readily produce such a sum during Chen Chang's business development was not easy. At least, that's what he told Yu Zhou.
Yu Zhou, of course, understood his perspective. Since they had already agreed to cooperate, waiting a few days was not a problem.
Furthermore, in Yu Zhou's eyes, delaying the timeline wouldn't disrupt his previous plans.
What's more, with tens of millions of yuan in the bank, the entire "Three Horses" company would have to adjust its future plans.
"This whole thing is getting ridiculous; I don't even know what to say."
Yu Zhou grumbled speechlessly to his subordinates.
He knew that this was a crucial opportunity for the entire "Three Horses" company to grow and expand. It was precisely because of this that many things had to go through his hands to fully leverage this strength.
If the factories weren't sufficiently built and production capacity wasn't enough, he would have even considered advertising on China Central Television. That would have allowed their entire industry layout to be rolled out within a year.
However, at this moment, Yu Zhou clearly understood that he needed to remain calm. At the very least, they were not yet capable of nationwide distribution.
After all, although the factories were spread out, they still needed sufficient production capacity. Even if some factory buildings were established, this level of development, or even the acceleration of production, would take time to succeed.
After all, with insufficient workers, it was difficult to accomplish anything.
Therefore, after much discussion, the advertising investment remained unchanged, but the money still had to be spent.
How to spend it? Of course, it wasn't simple investment; expanding factories and increasing production capacity were precisely what Yu Zhou had to do now.
Thus, whether in the surrounding counties of Jiangbei or other industrial zones, he began to intensify his efforts.
Ten million Longxia Yuan was a truly terrifying sum. With such an amount, it was fortunate that housing hadn't been commercialized yet; otherwise, buying an entire residential complex wouldn't have been difficult.
In fact, an entire residential complex might not even be enough to spend it all.
Of course, this was because consumption levels hadn't reached the level of later generations. Establishing a new, large-scale factory required immense capital.
Yu Zhou knew very well that ten million yuan could establish a new factory that could be considered an industrial park. Therefore, things that couldn't be done before now had to be accomplished step by step.
"You're becoming more and more remarkable; we're all benefiting from following you."
"Who would have imagined that a small dried fruit factory, under your leadership, would become a leading enterprise in the city's secondary food industry in less than a year?"
Liang Xiaohai said with emotion. Before Yu Zhou took over the dried fruit factory, he had actually only hoped that the factory could survive.
If it were to develop, it would have been in the same mode as before.
Who would have thought that a factory with dozens of employees would now develop into a large company with over a thousand employees? Not only that, but now they were going to build an industrial park.
One could easily imagine how much the factory and company would expand after the industrial park was built, relying on the brand recognition of the two brands.
A scale of three to four thousand people would definitely be considered a super-large factory.
And this was just a secondary food factory. It was hard to imagine what kind of secondary food brand could establish itself in a city and drive so much employment.
In this era, it was not like later generations, where laid-off workers in the entire city had not yet been fully absorbed.
Not to mention the great migration of migrant workers to the cities before the development of real estate and infrastructure.
A factory that could solve thousands of jobs and was profitable would be highly valued by both the city and provincial governments.
Why was Yu Zhou targeted so much before, yet unable to resist with force?
It was precisely because his qualifications were not yet sufficient.
But if he continued to develop vigorously, anyone who wanted to play dirty tricks on him would have to consider the attitude of the municipal and provincial governments.
A company that solved thousands of jobs, even if it had little connection to state-owned enterprises, would certainly become a welcomed guest.
If you dared to try to destroy such a company at this time, those powerful figures would intervene and tilt the scales, and it would be a blatant intervention that you couldn't control.
"The larger our scale, the safer we are."
"In fact, when we reach a point where even the city and province must pay attention to us and know our stance, then any enterprise that wants to deal with us will suffer a significant blow."
"This is not coercion, but a win-win situation. Therefore, at that time, we must be stable."
"Only on the premise of stability can everyone be satisfied."
Yu Zhou said these words slowly, hoping that such days would arrive soon.
After all, if that were the case, he wouldn't have to worry so much now.
He didn't want to worry early, but at this moment, another person in the factory was extremely worried.
Fearing that this opportunity would be missed due to her lack of ability.
Therefore, she was diligently learning everything in the factory, wanting to stay and carve out a path for herself during this opportunity.
Who was this person?
It was Tang Yan, the woman Yu Zhou thought highly of but who lacked much education.
