Chogula's home is in the Wotif Manor, not far from Vienna's ring street.

A few lingering events, a few clouds and rains.

Lee Haydn was ashamed of his performance just now. He was like a Chu brother in bed who had never experienced love for men and women, with awkward movements and clumsyness. He sat up from the bed. In order to avoid embarrassment, he took out a cigar from his pocket, lit it on the candlestick on the table, and then took a deep breath.

"Haydn, are you different from before?" Jogula poked half of her body out of the quilt, and her skin became more delicate under the red candlelight. He snuggled his head gently on his chest, raised his face, and blinked at him and said.

"Well, maybe I've been a little too busy recently. You know, I've been running around for the construction of a machinery factory this time. Look at the three investors I met at Earl Wilger's house. They insist on seeing the real samples before paying for them." Li Haidn shook his head, things were not going well.

"Well, I heard some of them, they are very interested in your idea. Don't worry, maybe my machinery factory can produce samples for you." Jogula said softly, "I know how to do business and how much investment you can invest now."

"What?" Li Haidn looked at Jogula with some confusion. What did she mean by saying this? It seemed that her idea had been realized. However, things did not seem to be as simple as he thought. Jogula seemed unwilling to be a simple investor.

"It's very simple. I'm tired of the idle life now. I want to manage those factories well. Maybe it's also very interesting to do business with you." Jogula raised her head a little, and her lips gently put her lips in Li Haydn's ear and said.

"This is a good idea." Li Haidon said with a smile. He always felt something was wrong. He took two more puffs of cigarettes and then frowned and said, "You mean you are the boss?"

"Of course, my machinery factory has a total value of more than 1.3 million kronor, and I don't think you have that much money," said Chogula.

"Oh, this is not a good idea. If there is no decision-making power, I think it's better to start a new job." Li Haidon spread his hands. He didn't want to do things under women, especially smart women.

"Okay, okay, how much money can you invest?" Jogula sat up and said seriously.

"300,000 kroner, plus some ideas to make money." Li Haidn closed his eyes slightly, and the two balls of white flesh on Jogula's chest made people dizzy.

"That should be one quarter, twenty-five percent of the shares," said Chogula, who began to become quite calm when she mentioned the money.

"Impossible, I want to account for at least 75% of the shares, and my ideas are at least half of the value." Lee Haydn raised the volume slightly, "I know that your machinery factory doesn't seem to be operating smoothly."

So the two started bargaining naked, which was absolutely "candid" and there was a fierce quarrel during this period. In the end, the two were exhausted, and Lee Haydn finally convinced Joe Gula to reach an agreement: the new partnership company each accounted for 50% of the shares, and Lee Haydn owned the final decision-making power of the new company, but he needed to bring three million kronor profits to the new partnership within three years.

Next, the two reconciled as before, and continued to storm in bed until they were exhausted...

The next day, Lee Haydn arrived in Trieste with Jogula on a train.

Trieste is located at the top of the Gulf of Trieste, the northernmost part of the Adriatic Sea. This city is one of the oldest territories of the Habsburgs. It has been under the rule of the Habsburgs from 1382 to 1918. As the fourth largest city of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the capital of Istria, it is also the most important port city in the Empire and the Mediterranean region and the largest industrial and commercial center in the south.

Of course, this is still one of the only three naval bases in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

As early as 1857, the Austro-Hungarian Empire built the southern railway connecting Vienna to Trieste. Due to the convenient transportation, the port city developed rapidly. It is now a prosperous port city with a population of nearly 160,000. The shipbuilding, machinery, metallurgy and textile industries are quite developed.

Isleia Machinery Manufacturing Company is a small mechanical processing factory located near the dock not far from Austria Shipping Company. The factory has about 600 skilled workers who can skillfully control various machine tools, mainly producing marine power plants, and also owns a small shipyard with only about 70 people.

Isleia manager Plasic was sturdy, with a big belly, and his eye-catching bald head was greasy. Li Haydn walked around the factory with a rough judgment on the situation of the entire factory: there are about 160 machine tools in the entire factory, and the main workshop is a two-story brick-and-wood factory building of about 800 square meters, powered by two steam boilers and 18 three-cylinder steam engines. In general, the equipment is a bit out of date.

However, what Lee Haydn values ​​most is not these facilities, but the more than 600 skilled technical workers in Isleia. If you want to train so many qualified operators, it is absolutely impossible to do without three or four years.

The manager Plasic is a Slovenian, with excellent business skills and a good manager. He is a good manager, but lacks the vision and innovative spirit of doing business. In the simple reception room of the factory, Li Haidn briefly talked about his plan. Plasic quickly came up with his own transformation plan: there are not many new equipment that need to be added, a set of hydraulic precision forging equipment, two high-precision boring machines and two high-precision pulling machines for carving rifling, and a set of bullet casting and stamping equipment.

"Why don't you use an electric motor as a power equipment?" asked Lee Hayden.

"Yes, the motor runs smoother than the steam engine, which is more conducive to improving machining accuracy, but..." Placici shook his head, "We don't have that much money at the moment."

Li Haidn paused for a moment, and in his mind, he estimated the investment needed to transform the factory in power. His own electrical appliance company can produce electric motors, but he still needs to buy a set of power generation equipment, and the factory's boiler is still useful. "I will find a way to transform the power facilities, but we need to recruit some experts in firearms, which Mr. Placich needs to solve." He thought for a while and said.

"It should be no big problem. I know some firearm workshop owners in Trieste. In addition, we can also go to Steyr to recruit some firearm designers and manufacturing technicians." Placici said that Austria's machining level is at the upper reaches of Europe. In Linz, Prague, Vienna and Trieste, the metal processing level here is no less than that of any European country.

Then Lee Haydn went to the shipyard under Isleia Company for a walk. As a naval officer, he naturally had a strong interest in the shipbuilding industry, but he still gave up this unrealistic fantasy. The Istria shipyard is very small in scale, with only two small wooden docks and two simple boat platforms in total. It can only build small sailing fishing boats with a displacement of no more than 250 tons and some short-distance small cargo ships. At present, it can only be barely maintained. If you want to receive a large order, it must be transformed and expanded.

The problem is that he seems to be unable to even take out a fraction of the funds for expanding the shipyard.
