People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

Carefully consider these important matters concerning the future.

As the excitement fades, the fatigue from prolonged thinking surges up instantly.

Lin Yi leaned back in his chair and rested for a while before opening the drawer of his desk.

Two pistols lay quietly in the corner of the drawer.

One Browning M1911 and one Colt M1873 single-action revolver.

These are all classic and famous guns.

It should be Lin Andao's collection.

Like any normal man, Lin Yi had a strong interest in firearms, which are considered toys for men.

His marksmanship isn't very good.

A 12% hit rate on a 25-meter pistol target is a dismal result.

After taking the two guns out of the drawer and gently stroking them for a while, Lin Yi gave up on the idea of ​​using the system's abilities on the handguns.

Handguns are not mainstream in the market, at least not in China right now.

When he entered the military industry, his first main product could only be rifles.

Therefore, it's better to go back and get someone to get a rifle before using the system's capabilities.

While pondering these thoughts, Lin Yi took out another bullet from the drawer.

After fiddling with it for a while, as the warhead detached, the propellant inside the shell spilled out.

System capabilities.

specified.

A tiny stream of information instantly flooded into my mind.

I didn't feel dizzy at all.

Lin Yi took a look and his eyes lit up.

This time, however, he received an unexpected surprise. The information provided by the system not only included technical data on the propellant itself.

During the upgrade, technical data for a high explosive called "High Energy No. 1" was surprisingly generated from the propellant.

Lin Yi had never heard of this name before.

In his limited military knowledge, he had only ever heard of the HAZ CL20 ladder.

The most familiar one is the large staircase.

Because the explosive power of other gunpowders is described based on the large ladder!

He quickly checked and soon found the yield information for High Energy One.

Its power is equivalent to 1.42 times the power of a large ladder.

This must be the most powerful high explosive of this era, right?

As he guessed this, a smile appeared on Lin Yi's face.

With this thing, we can also produce hand grenades and artillery shells!

……

The next morning, Lin Yi took the bicycle project proposal and went to the machine factory again.

When I met Jing Zhizhong, his eyes were bloodshot and he had dark circles under his eyes.

This is clearly a consequence of working late into the night last night.

Lin Yi, as the boss, has always greatly appreciated such hardworking and dedicated employees.

He offered a few very polite words of encouragement.

Only then did I give him the bicycle project proposal and the design draft.

Just like yesterday, I plan to listen to the assessment of professionals.

Although he felt it wasn't difficult, he couldn't be sure that there might be some oversights.

Jing Zhizhong, an outsider, was completely baffled by market positioning and brand building.

He focused on the design and manufacturing of the components, then looked up and asked, "Young Master, are you planning to make bicycles?"

"Ah."

Lin Yi nodded, without mentioning that he did this mainly to get loans.

"The textile factory's continuous shutdown for training is not a long-term solution; we have to find a way to generate some income."

"If this can be done, it would be good to give the workers more benefits."

"Hehe, young master is very thoughtful."

Jing Zhizhong flattered him and then said, "This matter can be handled, but there are quite a few factories producing bicycles now, and there are also a lot of imported goods."

"If we dive in headfirst, sales might become a problem."

He's the typical STEM guy.

He only glanced at the market positioning in the proposal and failed to understand Lin Yi's ideas.

In addition, the sketch that Lin Yi brought was drawn with a pen and it was crooked and messy.

Before it was colored, the science and engineering guy couldn't see any aesthetic appeal at all.

The bicycle market is already highly competitive, so producing this kind of thing at this time would likely result in unsold inventory.

This is like adding insult to injury for textile factories that had already ceased production.

"I've thought about that, no need to worry."

Lin Yi did not explain in detail.

He laughed and said, "Since you think you can make it, then that makes things easier."

"First, find someone to design the parts drawings. We also need someone to make drafts for the textile equipment. Let's do both at the same time, but we have to be quick."

Without waiting for Jing Zhizhong's reply, Lin Yi gave a deadline: "Spend more money and try to get it done in two days."

Jing Zhizhong was speechless.

It's confirmed, the young master is indeed that swift-as-the-wind man!

Although he found it difficult, he accepted the instruction.

Because this is something that can actually be accomplished by spending more money.

It's simply a matter of finding more draftsmen.

After explaining the matter clearly, Lin Yi made a phone call and summoned his cousin Lin Fang to the machine factory.

He left production to Jing Zhizhong, who was known for his ability to handle more tasks, while he planned to entrust the raw material supply and the management of the specialty stores to Lin Fang.

This guy's role at Ando Company was originally in purchasing and sales, so he was considered a professional.

With his guidance, nothing will go wrong.

A burst of output, whipping the fast bull.

Lin Fang left the textile factory in a daze, got into his Cadillac, and it took him a while to sort things out.

My cousin, who's not very bright and can't tell right from wrong, is trying to build a bicycle!

Although Ando Company did not have this business before, Lin Fang, who was quite business-minded, still knew a little about the bicycle market.

Compared to the current dire situation in the textile industry, it is in a much better position.

But that's about it.

Most importantly, the competition is equally fierce.

The textile factory is already struggling to survive, and to plunge headlong into this highly competitive industry is nothing short of a spendthrift.

If he keeps going like this, the Lin family's enormous fortune will be completely squandered in less than two years!

"idiot."

Muttering a curse under his breath, Lin Fang raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a look of disdain.

I have no idea what this father and son were thinking.

They have money and power.

But they have to work hard and struggle to develop real industries.

Look at the three tycoons of Shanghai; they all started their careers through gangs.

However, they were engaged in extremely profitable industries such as opium trade, casinos, and loan sharking.

Not only do they make a fortune every day, but countless people in Shanghai's business community have to defer to them.

He had done his research on it.

Du Yuesheng, now the most powerful of the three tycoons, was once a close friend of Lin Andao, who worked as a porter at the docks, when he was just a fruit vendor.

Therefore, if Lin Andao had not devoted himself to industry back then...

Instead, they continued to run the gang, just like Du Yuesheng.

Maybe by then Shanghai would have had four big tycoons!

What a fucking shame!

Lin Fang frowned again, inwardly grumbling.

Looking at the underling in the passenger seat, who had a displeased expression, he said, "Go contact the middleman again and ask them when they plan to make a move against Lin Yi."

"Damn it, if this drags on any longer, I'll refund your money and find someone else!"
