Yanqing City also belongs to the territory ruled by the O'Neill family. Although it cannot be considered the capital of the O'Neill family, it is home to an important industrial base and is regarded as one of their significant cities.
Zhao Hai’s target this time is here. Although he could easily obtain the items he desires, he does not want to arouse the O'Neill family's suspicion. The things he wants will be bought with money, and he plans to withdraw all that money from the bank when he is ready to leave.
After arriving in Yanqing City, Zhao Hai quickly found a good hotel to stay in. Then he went outside to assess the situation. He had already developed a plan; to buy the items he wanted without drawing suspicion, he had only one solution: to set up a company in Yanqing City.
While Zhao Hai inquired about the situation, Laura and the others drove separately to a bookstore to buy books. They purchased all the books they found useful and appealing.
Zhao Hai drove around the city a few times, getting a rough understanding of everything in Yanqing City. However, acquiring a company was not going to be easy, especially since he was unfamiliar with the place.
When Zhao Hai returned to the hotel, Laura and the others had also come back. Besides buying a large number of books, they had also purchased many clothes and other items.
Zhao Hai didn’t pay much attention to them. After putting the books away, they sat in their space and watched the screen. The current display was about the situation in the Taurus Continent. Their plan to lure the O'Neill family using undead beings had been very successful. In about two days, the O'Neill family would discover the Winged Horse Tribe's space.
He didn’t need to worry too much about things there. Zhao Hai then pulled up the map of Yanqing City. True to its reputation as an industrial city, factories of all sizes were everywhere. It seemed that the O'Neill family was in need of a large amount of mecha and war vehicles, which made the business in these factories very prosperous.
Frowning at the factory situation, Zhao Hai turned to Laura and said, “I initially planned to buy a factory here so that we could use it to acquire the items we need. But now it seems that the businesses in these factories are doing quite well, and it’s likely no one will want to sell. This means we’ll have to start our own factory, which shouldn’t be an easy task.”
Laura nodded. She had always been in business and was quite knowledgeable about such matters. Although doing business in Atlantis Continent was different from the Ark Continent, the principles of business were almost the same. Starting a factory anywhere was not easy.
Zhao Hai furrowed his brow and said to Laura, “Let’s go out. I want to ask the people at this hotel if they can introduce someone who specializes in this sort of thing.”
Laura had no other option but to nod. After they appeared in the lobby, Zhao Hai immediately asked for the hotel manager to be brought over.
Zhao Hai was staying in the best room in the hotel, so the lobby manager did not dare to neglect him. Upon hearing Zhao Hai call for him, he quickly came over.
Zhao Hai glanced at the lobby manager, who appeared to be quite old with some gray hair and a neatly trimmed mustache. As soon as he entered the room, he bowed and asked, “Sir, what do you need?”
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “I’m a visitor. I’ve heard that the factory business in Yanqing City is thriving, so I came here to do some factory business. However, I’m unfamiliar with this place, so I want to ask if you could help me find some intermediaries. I want to purchase a factory in Yanqing City or start my own. Can you assist me with this?”
The manager immediately replied, “Sir, please rest assured. We have a specialized headhunting company for this. I can contact the best headhunting company for you, please don’t worry.”
Zhao Hai nodded, “That would be troublesome for you. The price is not an issue, but the people must be reliable and capable. I won’t mistreat you after this.”
