The Tian Family also has businesses in Anding City, including a traditional Chinese medicine company. It's not a joint-stock company but rather individually operated, managed by a relative. However, the real authority still lies with the Tian Family itself, and every year, they have to pay a significant portion of the profits to the Tian Family.
Nowadays, those who can operate individually are generally well-connected, unlike later when having registered capital and complete documents is sufficient to start a business.
This is one of the privileges granted to the Tian Family by the state.
Originally, Song Fanggang intended to arrange a military supply office specifically to entertain veteran cadres for Tian Heming, but since the Tian Family has its own business, there is naturally someone to arrange these things, so it was tactfully declined.
