Jiang Yue understood perfectly well that Smith was trying to lower the price. In fact, Jiang Yue already knew that they were selling back to China for dollars and pounds.

Such handicrafts are in high demand and short supply in European and American countries.

Many people buy these items and display them at home or keep them as collectibles.

They buy from us, and when they get overseas, the price increases tenfold or twentyfold.

"Mr. Smith, these items aren't expensive; each one represents a significant investment of effort. Moreover, this kind of technology is only available in Hunan Province; it's unique, and each item is irreplaceable..."

Jiang Yue told Mr. Smith how good these things were.

"If I wanted five thousand of these items, I'd like a further discount..."

Hearing his words, Jiang Yue started talking to Director Yang again.

Five thousand pieces!!!

They have thousands of items in their exhibition hall and several thousand more in their warehouse.

Factory Director Yang was all smiles, and Jiang Yue whispered a reminder to him.

"The minimum discount is 10%, and that's the price you'll charge them from now on. But when you sell to other people domestically, you have to offer a 5% discount. You can't sell below 10%, otherwise, if they find out, there won't be a next time..."

Upon hearing Jiang Yue's words, Director Yang understood what she meant.

Seventy to eighty percent of the products from the Hunan Embroidery Factory are exported. Many foreign friends have bought these products before, but none in large quantities as Mr. Smith.

"Comrade Jiang, we understand your meaning. Don't worry, from now on, our Hunan Embroidery Factory will follow this price..."

Upon hearing Jiang Yue's words, Factory Director Yang assured her.

With such a large sale this time, once the news gets out, the factory's business will be even better.

Jiang Yue led Smith and the others into the workshop to watch the workers make the products. However, they were not allowed to bring their cameras or other personal belongings inside.

Smith and his team were amazed when they saw the production process.

"Fantastic."

"It's so beautiful."

"I didn't realize this thing was so complicated to make."

"This is wonderful."

The group ate lunch at the Hunan Embroidery Factory.

Jiang Yue introduced Hunan cuisine to everyone. These foreign friends couldn't handle spicy food very well, so these dishes were all mildly spicy.

In the afternoon, Jiang Yue helped finalize the contract, and both parties signed it, agreeing to all the terms.

Other follow-up work was naturally handled by Director Zhao and other people in the city.

"Comrade Jiang, thank you so much!" Director Zhao was all smiles.

Mr. Smith and his team were brought in through connections made by the provincial government. They had expected these collaborations to take half a month, or even a month, to negotiate. Moreover, their target transaction amount was one million yuan.

Although the amount of money is not high, it is still a very good thing for the province.

As can be seen, the transaction price is already more than four or five times higher.

Furthermore, Mr. Smith stated that if the response is positive, they will continue to collaborate.

This is excellent news for the textile factory and the Hunan Embroidery Factory. For these departments, completing such significant collaborations will earn them commendation from the provincial and municipal governments; they're practically guaranteed this year's "Advanced Worker" award.

"Comrade Jiang, Mr. Smith and his colleagues would like to go to the Liling Porcelain Factory to purchase porcelain. They hope you can accompany them."

Jiang Yue had just heard what Mr. Smith said, and upon hearing Director Zhao's words, she smiled and agreed.
