The unexpected joy of walking painting made Zhou Yang and Liu Xiaojie fall into an extremely busy state since mid-April. Zhou Yang began to run the market in New York, looking for customers, as if he was back to the state before traveling through time.

Liu Xiaojie's task is heavier, and he needs to train a group of qualified painters in the shortest time to ensure that the orders brought back by Zhou Yang can be delivered on time with quality and quantity.

To this end, Liu Xiaojie rented a larger house next to his studio, and then hired more than 20 female workers from Chinatown in one go, training and selecting potential painters.

Workers who paint in a row must first learn to use sketch pencils to outline the contents that need to be drawn with lines, then divide them into areas, layers, and apply paints of different colors.

They don’t need to have artistic ideas, they just need to copy them according to the detailed examples provided by Liu Xiaojie. In order to speed up the training, Zhou Yang also asked Liu Xiaojie to design a painting assembly line.

The people who draw the best and fastest lines are specifically responsible for the process they are good at. Each of the others also assign their respective tasks in detail, specifically which areas in the painting and which types of pigments are responsible for applying.

After a week of training, Liu Xiaojie finally left behind twelve female workers who were quick to learn and had more talent.

As for the reasons for recruiting all female workers, on the one hand, the salary of female workers is lower. Anyway, drawing is not a laborious job, both men and women can do it, and female workers are easier to manage than male workers.

The twelve female painters who stayed have their own division of labor like factory assembly lines. They can draw at least 100 lines of paintings every day, almost an average of 10 paintings per hour.

The production capacity of 3,000 pieces per month can basically meet the supply needs of seven or eight customers discussed by Zhou Yang in the early stage.

After the Xinghua business was on track, Zhou Yang and Liu Xiaojie's profitability speed suddenly increased. For every painting they sold, they could earn about $5 on average, and the monthly sales of 3,000 pieces was $15,000.

This doubled the income from selling colored paintings before. What's more important is that the upper limit of this business is much higher. After all, they have just entered the market, and even the local market in New York has not been developed yet, let alone the broader American market.

It is precisely because of the broad prospects that Zhou Yang and his roommate Liu Xiaojie discussed that the business must be formalized, and they need to open a company and pay taxes according to the regulations, otherwise they will be found by the US Taxation Bureau one day.

However, one of them is an international student and the other is an illegal householder. It is not that easy for these two identities to open a company in the United States. At this time, the lawyer connections that Zhou Yang had made before came in handy immediately.

Connie's Davie Law Firm, naturally, could not fall in love with a small case like them. Connie introduced Zhou Yang to a friend of her, and the cost-effectiveness of the other party is more in line with his current conditions.

Because Zhou Yang not only has no legal identity in the United States, but has no identity record in any place in the world. Even a tax haven like Cayman Islands with almost zero thresholds to open a company cannot be a shareholder.

So the new company can only be the sole proprietorship of Liu Xiaojie. Fortunately, it was not Connie herself, otherwise she would definitely have doubts about Zhou Yang's identity.

Because he wanted to open a company, Zhou Yang revealed to Liu Xiaojie that he had no legal identity in the United States. Fortunately, illegal households like Zhou Yang can be seen everywhere in Chinatown, so Liu Xiaojie was not surprised at all.

Although Liu Xiaojie has been in the United States for more than half a year, his understanding of American society is far less than that of Zhou Yang, a time traveler. Therefore, Zhou Yang is fully responsible for all the things in running a company.

Without further explanation, Liu Xiaojie believed that he could not name the company. He had no idea that there was an offshore company operation, so Zhou Yang could easily hide the huge secret that he had traveled through time.

The two made a verbal agreement that the shares of the new company were still divided equally, but Zhou Yang's part was temporarily held by Liu Xiaojie. Of course, there are hidden dangers. If Liu Xiaojie denies it in the future, Zhou Yang will have no choice but to do anything to him.

But at least in the short term, Zhou Yang's role in the new company is greater than that of Liu Xiaojie. After all, if he had not gone out to find customers and pulled orders, the company would immediately go bankrupt and close.

As for whether the two will become enemies because of their interests over time? Zhou Yang is not worried about this issue at all, because his goal is the Star Sea and he does not take such a small company into consideration.

The matter of the new company also reminded Zhou Yang again that he must solve the hidden dangers of his identity as soon as possible. Fortunately, he had already thought of a plan and the first step was to get a Mexican head change passport.

The so-called head change passport, as the name suggests, is to replace the "head". All information in the passport, except for the photos of the user, is to use the passport information of missing or deceased persons.

Of course, this is illegal. Once seized, you will face imprisonment. But this is Zhou Yang's best transitional choice. First of all, Mexico is relatively corrupt, so it is not difficult to get a head-changing passport like this.

Secondly, the visa-free scope of Mexico's passports includes more than 100 countries and regions, and it can be easily accessed and exited most countries around the world.

In 1980, when global networking was not yet achieved, the risk of passports being used outside Mexico was low.

The last point is that Mexico is right next to the United States. When entering Mexico from the United States, there is no need to pass the inspection. Zhou Yang can calmly go to Mexico to claim his new identity.

Of course, Zhou Yang is not really planning to become a Mexican, after all, fake things will never be real. If you are interested, you will easily find his flaws when you go to Mexico for a little investigation. He will not be able to leave such a big hidden danger to himself.

The reason why Zhou Yang got a Mexican passport was to be able to enter Hong Kong without visa. His real purpose was to obtain legal rights to residency in Hong Kong before the end of Hong Kong's "aggression policy".

The so-called "aggression policy" is a special immigration policy implemented by the Hong Kong and British governments in response to illegal entry from the mainland since November 1974. Illegal entry from the mainland can become legal residents of Hong Kong as long as they can successfully arrive in the city of Hong Kong.

Because this policy is specifically for smugglers, the applicant does not need to provide any identity information, as long as you are a Chinese.

This is the best way for Zhou Yang, a time traveler, to obtain a legal identity.

Before Zhou Yang traveled through time, he liked to read online novels. Many authors used this policy to help the protagonist get the right to live in Hong Kong. If he remembered correctly, the "resistance policy" would end in October this year, so for Zhou Yang, time is tight.
