The female leader was a little worried.
Beside her was a man wearing glasses, his expression somewhat arrogant.
"Mr. Mu, although I haven’t met this Mr. Jiang you mentioned, I think she’s not someone to befriend."
The female leader with the last name Mu looked at the man who was speaking.
"Mr. Yan, without investigation, there’s no right to speak."
The man with glasses disagreed and said, "I don’t need investigation. I can see very clearly when a colleague figures out your job, got acquainted yesterday, and calls you today to curry favor."
Director Mu frowned disapprovingly.
"Mr. Jiang reached out to me because of work, not as you said to curry favor."
If Jiang Cheng really wanted to curry favor, Director Mu felt she might not be able to resist.
Opposite, Director Yan shook his head with a smile, confident and said, "You are too idealistic when it comes to understanding people’s hearts."
Director Mu retorted sarcastically, "You are too narrow-minded regarding people’s hearts."
The two were uncompromising in words, the surrounding staff had long been accustomed.
Each working quietly, not daring to lift their eyes.
Time passed bit by bit, and Director Mu grew increasingly worried.
She dialed the number Jiang Cheng left, but it was only the post and telecommunications office answering.
Next to her, Director Yan watched the commotion and said, "This Mr. Jiang has a very skillful grasp on people’s hearts."
Director Mu glanced back and said, "She’s quite capable, but she’s also very sincere, I can feel it."
Director Yan seemed to have heard something hilarious and laughed heartily.
"Mr. Mu, you’re still so naive."
Director Mu snorted coldly, "Indeed, if we talk about darkness, you are ranked first, who dares to be second."
Director Yan heard and was completely unconcerned, "Thanks for the compliment."
Director Mu directly replied, "Shameless."
The two went back and forth.
Right then, someone knocked on the door outside.
"Director Mu, foreign guests have arrived!"
Foreign guests?
Everyone inside stood up.
No matter how we fight internally, externally we are undoubtedly a united and loving family.
The foreign guests are all registered and have dedicated companions. How could foreign guests come here?
No matter the situation, Director Yan and Director Mu together stepped out of the office, heading downstairs.
Leading the way, Director Mu had just reached downstairs and spotted the vibrant Jiang Cheng amidst the crowd.
"Jiang Cheng?"
"Director Mu, I apologize for the delay in calling you on time due to some unexpected matters."
Jiang Cheng immediately apologized, and Director Mu’s little dissatisfaction dissolved instantly, turning into concern.
"Are you alright?"
"I’m fine. I just happened to encounter two foreign guests at the foreign exchange store."
Jiang Cheng naturally introduced the two MD foreign guests.
Director Mu knew of the two foreign guests, but their specific itinerary wasn’t arranged by her, but by...
"Lao Yan."
Lagging behind, Director Yan immediately stepped forward upon seeing the two MD foreign guests.
He knew they had a scheduled visit to the foreign exchange store today; just unsure how they ended up here.
While everyone was puzzled, Jiang Cheng stood out, speaking to both sides.
After explaining to Director Mu and Director Yan, she asked, "So, the rest of the matters still require both your help. If we could invite the factory directors from Hai City Food Factory and the ceramics factory to discuss, it would be best."
Director Mu and Director Yan, despite feeling shocked and doubtful, concealed their expressions and busied themselves.
Questions are asked privately!
Secure the money first!
In a blink, the entire foreign trade department was busy.
"Getting benefits while playing innocent."
Director Mu complained and then continued working.
Until it’s very late, after contacting five food factories, six ceramics factories, plus Jiang Cheng’s insistence on S City Food Factory and Ceramics Factory.
Cleared their substandard goods inventory, finally totaling a two-million order.
All the contacted factory directors were rushing overnight on their way to Sea City, desperate to seize this grand fortune.
Meanwhile, Jiang Cheng had chatted with the two foreign guests until they were dizzy.
While other factory directors hadn’t arrived, the foreign trade department signed the contract with the two foreign businessmen and received the deposit.
Two-thirds of the matter is already settled, just waiting for other factory directors to come over to complete the other procedures.
This isn’t something the foreign guests need to worry about.
That evening, foreign trade sent a car to escort the two foreign guests back to the hotel.
Remaining in foreign trade, Jiang Cheng called Miss Mu.
"Director Mu, I have something I’d like to ask you for help with."
Beside them, Director Yan knowingly smiled, gave Director Mu a look.
Director Mu ignored him and looked at Jiang Cheng, saying, "Go ahead."
Jiang Cheng noticed the exchange between the two but pretended not to see it, saying, "I’m wondering if there are other foreign friends looking to purchase goods?"
"There are! But most have already negotiated their orders."
Director Mu responded frankly, "There are a group of foreign businessmen in Sea City, but most are here for inspection, and few are making actual purchases."
Jiang Cheng nodded knowingly.
"That’s alright. I just want a chance to meet with them. If I can land the orders, we’ll all be happy."
"If I can’t, there’s no lost for you guys, isn’t there?"
After listening, Director Mu indeed found the reasoning sound.
She knew she shouldn’t harbor expectations, but somehow, the young woman before her seemed almost magical, prompting her to ponder further.
"Alright! I’ll help you!"
