Governor's Mansion.

When Fang Yuan and others returned, they saw that except the Royal Trading Company, all the other trading firm bosses were here.

They were already entertained by officials, and when they saw Fang Yuan coming back, they all stood up and saluted Fang Yuan.

"Why do you have time to come to me?"

Fang Yuan asked curiously.

In the more than half a month since they arrived in Liaozhou, except for their first meeting, they have never been together like this.

"Fang Zhouzun, if this continues, our factory will not be able to run!"

A business owner sighed.

Other business owners also spoke out, saying that it was difficult to open a factory in Liaozhou.

"Because of today's incident?"

Fang Yuan frowned slightly.

Let them sit down and talk slowly.

Ji Rufeng and the other three also took their seats.

The nine major trading houses are together again.

"Yes, not entirely."

"Today, Sanya Yahang disrupted the place where we built the factory."

"But before today, we had many difficulties in selecting sites in the three counties. In the future..."

Another business owner sighed.

They chose many places, but almost always faced difficulties.

Although the place was chosen in the end, it was actually quite unsatisfactory.

Unless Fang Yuan builds a cement road to their factory in the future, it will be difficult to transport goods in the future.

"Don't worry, everyone!"

"Difficulties are only temporary. If you persist for three months, victory is right in front of you."

Fang Yuan cheered them up.

It is definitely difficult to open up a new market.

Moreover, he has not yet fully gained power in Liaozhou, so it is difficult for him to give them great support.

But just hold on for a while and it will be fine. The Liaozhou family represented by the three surnames Yaxing will be suppressed.

The bosses of several trading companies stopped talking, but looking at their expressions, they still looked like they were still unsatisfied.

The reason why I didn’t complain is because of Fang Yuan’s face, and because I made a lot of money with Fang Yuan in Wuling County before.

But the actual problem was not solved by Fang Yuan's two sentences, it was still full of difficulties.

"Fang Zhouzun, let me also say a few words."

"We are all businessmen. In addition to looking at you, we also value profits."

"There are great benefits to setting up a factory in Liaozhou, but we may not be able to reap these benefits."

"For example, for the products we make in the future, we may not be able to ship them out of Liaozhou."

Ji Rufeng coughed dryly and said in a deep voice.

This was agreed by other business owners and they all nodded.

They also have such worries, worrying that after the goods are produced in the future, the goods will not be theirs.

In the past half month, they have deeply realized the difficulty of doing business in the north. The gentry atmosphere here is too strong.

It is not an ordinary difficulty to make money from them.

Moreover, in the future, they will have to be transported to various places for sale, and they will also have to worry about being encountered by bandits and robbers on the way.

The main place of business for myself and others is not in Liaozhou, so it is impossible to raise a group of people to escort the caravan. The cost is too high.

"Don't worry, I've thought about this issue."

"I will set up a security company... which will be responsible for protecting the goods in your factory, ensuring that you will not be troubled in Liaozhou, and will also escort your goods to be transported smoothly to various places."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

This is what I thought after seeing Gui Jianming today.

The situation in Liaozhou is complicated and there are many aristocratic families. If you want to gain a firm foothold, you must have force.

It seems that after recruiting 300 state officials, the assassination that night did not happen again.

If someone wants to bully you, in addition to being wary of your own status as governor, you must also consider the force of the three hundred state officials.

The same is true for the transportation of major commercial houses. In the dynasty era when social rules and regulations were not very clear, they needed protection to grow.

"Is this... allowed by the court?"

Ji Rufeng and others' eyes lit up, but they quickly expressed concern.

If there really is a security company like Fang Yuan said, then there is no need to worry about transporting goods.

After Fang Yuan fired the workers at the cement factory today, the workers he will recruit next will no longer sit idly by and watch after the incident.

Fang Yuan’s security company also helps with other matters.

The rest will always be a little difficult, but as long as there are enough benefits, you can still persevere.

"I am the governor of a state, and setting up a department to protect local wealthy businessmen will be conducive to the development of Liaozhou. The court should have nothing to say."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

After all, I am the governor of a state, and the imperial court will not be so unkind.

The major aristocratic families also had their own clan soldiers, so the court had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

"How embarrassing is this...?"

Ji Rufeng and others felt a little embarrassed.

This will undoubtedly cost a lot of money to raise a bunch of people to serve them.

"It doesn't matter."

"I need your help, so I should provide you with shelter."

"Go ahead and do it. If you encounter any problems, you can tell me and I will make the decision for you."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said calmly.

It is necessary to set up a security company to protect these businesses.

In the future, various other businesses will appear in Liaozhou, which also need to be protected.

And instead of spending their own money, they have their own 10% stake in each factory in Liaozhou.

"Thank you Fang Zhouzun!"

Ji Rufeng and others looked at each other and saluted Fang Yuan.

They are just here to complain about the problem. Once the problem is solved, it is time for them to leave.

This time, Fang Yuan did not send them away.

"Zhao Erwa, go do something for me."

Fang Yuan said calmly.

Zhao Erwa, who was standing not far away, was startled for a moment before walking over.

He has not yet adapted to being promoted to captain, and he did not expect Fang Yuan to call him.

"Go to the Fang Mansion and relay the officer's words to Hong Xu Qinggao: Set up a security company and recruit three hundred people, regardless of gender. Priority will be given to martial arts. There is a risk of casualties. The monthly salary is ninety yuan."

Fang Yuan arranged.

The security company cannot be run by him.

It has to be run by people outside the officialdom so that no one can find fault.

"Yes!"

Zhao Erwa quickly responded.

After turning around, his mouth opened and closed, probably repeating Fang Yuan's words.

"Zhang San, is there a small casino in Sanya Yahang?"

Fang Yuan looked at Zhang Sandao.

These days, Fang Yuan probably knows the situation in Liaozhou City.
