I, Yan Jiefang, will live to 2025 in this courtyard house.

Although Yan Jiefang knew that he already had this plan, he was still moved by his grand gesture.

After all, this was 100 million RMB in 2000! It was real, hard cash!

One hundred million yuan is more than 99% of the people in the country could earn in their entire lives.

And yet he was willing to invest it in building a teaching building that would yield almost no return.

He didn't publicize this at all.

Even though it has been going on for more than half a year, no media outlets have helped to promote it.

It can be said that he, like Yan Jiefang, was completely selfless in his dedication.

After all, he earned all this money legally himself, without raising a single penny from the public.

He was the complete opposite of the so-called "great philanthropist" of later generations.

However, he encountered the same numerous difficulties as Yan Jiefang during the construction process.

This not only slowed down his project progress but also wasted a lot of money.

Fortunately, the locals didn't dare to exploit them too much.

After all, Louis Koo is a celebrity throughout the country, and he is also a compatriot from Hong Kong.

If it generates negative public opinion, it could also negatively impact local development.

It might even attract an investigation from higher authorities.

This is the last thing the local upper class wants to see, since there are very few people with clean hands.

They will all pay some attention to the impact of public opinion and warn those who stay put to behave themselves.

...

Without his wife by his side, Yan Jiefang moved much faster.

I can basically pass through a county town every day.

He covered the remaining ten or so counties in just half a month.

In fact, as long as the people inside are not corrupt, these projects are unlikely to have any problems.

After all, they've been doing this for many years; they're all veterans and very skilled.

However, people's hearts may change when faced with large sums of money.

Even the "Heaven-Changing and Earth-Striking Technique" cannot guarantee that people's hearts will remain unchanged in the long term.

Unless he spends time reinforcing it from time to time.

Now that Yan Jiefang's business has long been established, he no longer cares so much about positions and matters that are not too important.

Naturally, it won't require the same effort as when we first started the business to pay attention to every person and every matter.

He was only a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining; it was impossible for him to be proficient in everything.

Let alone a mere Qi Refining cultivator like him, even Celestial Immortals and Golden Immortals would have omissions.

Compared to a celestial being, he might not even be considered dust.

...

After establishing his e-commerce business, Yan Xueheng has been expanding it.

Relying on his father's connections, he was able to scrape together some mainframes from server assembly plants every month to build his own e-commerce server center.

Some sports brands, with their nationwide networks, have begun establishing new logistics and distribution centers and logistics networks.

In addition, he also spent money to buy top-tier promotional slots on ICQ.

Coupled with his own celebrity effect, although this B2C e-commerce company has only been established for a short time, its online reputation has begun to expand rapidly.

They managed to break through the gaps between several domestic giants and become a new unicorn company.

Currently, there are over 300 million registered users.

The biggest constraint on the company at present is the logistics system.

After all, the company's logistics network is only just beginning to be established and is still far from being fully formed.

In most cases, delivery still needs to be handled by other logistics companies.

This means that apart from having a decent reputation, the company has no other advantages compared to other e-commerce companies.

"Dad, do we really need to invest 20 billion in our logistics network?"

Yan Xueheng looked at his elderly father sitting across the tea table and asked with some hesitation.

Yan Jiefang lowered his brows and took a sip of tea:

"Yes, this 20 billion is just the initial network, which will be used to build outlets in major prefecture-level cities and counties."

The project will continue to be implemented in various townships at the lower levels.

Of course, that's a story for another time.

Upon hearing this, Yan Xueheng silently did some calculations in his mind:

"If we were to establish service points in all of our nearly 3000 counties and cities across the country, it would be no small project."

Based on your usual practices, you'll likely need to buy or build over 3000 warehouses of varying sizes, and at least several hundred semi-trailers and other trucks.

Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle. Is 20 billion enough?

Besides, when will I ever break even on such a large investment?

He knows his dad has a lot of money, 200 billion US dollars, but you can't just throw money around like that!

If you invest 20 billion, when will you ever break even?

You would have made a fortune by investing elsewhere, wouldn't you?

He genuinely felt that the logistics industry had a promising future, but the competition in this industry was equally fierce!

The three state-owned companies alone—DX, Sinotrans, and COSCO—are formidable obstacles, not to mention private companies like YT and YD that are also eyeing the market covetously.

Even if you establish a good logistics system, you might not have enough goods to transport, right?

Yan Jiefang paid no attention to his son's remarks; he looked at the purple clay teacup in his hand:

"You don't need to worry about this. Even if we invest 10 billion, it's fine. Let's establish the logistics network first."

As the internet becomes more and more developed, online shopping will definitely increase in the future, which will inevitably require a large amount of transportation capacity.

Building your logistics network now is seizing the initiative and planning for the future; you won't lose out.

Yan Xueheng is very optimistic about the e-commerce industry; otherwise, he wouldn't have started his own e-commerce company.

Since his father was so confident, he felt at ease.

Their family can afford to lose money.

The only thing that made him feel a little guilty was that, among the three brothers, he was probably the one who would need to spend more money in the next few years.

This is an investment of tens or hundreds of billions!

Moreover, the number of his wife and children in the entire family is several times greater than that of his eldest brother and third brother's families combined.

I wonder how much more of the family fortune I'll inherit in the future.

My father gave each of his grandchildren 3 million yuan as start-up capital.

He must have at least 30 children.

This could be more than 100 billion...

Even though Dad has a lot of money, he shouldn't be taking advantage of me like this, right?

But he never expected his father to give each of his grandchildren so much money!

In addition, there is money for each daughter-in-law.

If he had known that his dad would give everyone so much money, would he have still had so many female friends?

meeting!

This was beyond his control.

With so many outstanding female students, who could resist?

Anyway, he couldn't control himself.

I just can't control myself!

He simply made the "mistake" that almost every man makes.

. .

After this conversation, Yan Xueheng began to devote more energy to the construction of logistics distribution centers and outlets in various regions.

His female friends have always stood by him, helping him with his work.
