Chapter 213 Silk (Page 2/2)
Everyone understood this and thanked her one after another.
As soon as she finished speaking, foreign friends came over.
Zheng Yun and Zou Panchun went to meet up with Deputy Director Zhao, and Jiang Qian was in charge here.
A few foreign friends came over to look at the things on the stall, which happened to be the stall of those young men and their team leader.
Jiang Qian came over to greet them and asked directly in English, "How can I help you?"
"Oh, what a nice pronunciation. Excuse me, young lady from China, have you ever been to our country?" A foreign woman opposite was very surprised and asked Jiang Qian.
Jiang Qian smiled, "No, I learned it from our teacher. Some parts of my explanation are not good, I hope you don't mind."
"No, no, no, you said it very well, very standardly!" The foreign woman shook her head.
People of this period had very strict requirements on accents. There is a movie about a flower girl who transforms herself into a noble lady, which tells such a story.
After being taught by a language professor, a language expert mistakenly thought that the flower girl at the ball was a princess of some country, which is why she had such a standard and desirable accent.
What Jiang Qian learned was a very orthodox pronunciation, so it was no wonder that the foreign woman and her companions were very surprised.
After a brief chat, Jiang Qian recommended the products to them.
"I'm sorry, this stall doesn't have what we want." said the foreign woman.
Jiang Qian smiled, "It's okay, you can tell me your needs. I know all the specialties of China sold here."
Foreign women say, "I want silk. I like your silk very much."
"Thank you very much. You have a very good eye. This is something that is famous throughout the ages in our dynasty. Please come over here. Here is the silk you want." Jiang Qian made a gesture of invitation and said to the captain of the booth, "I'm sorry, your booth doesn't have what they want. I'll take them to look somewhere else."
"It's okay, it's okay." The captain had already admired him very much.
Although he had no idea what they were saying, he could see Jiang Qian motioning these foreign friends to take a look at their products. However, they just shook their heads and spoke something in a foreign language, obviously not interested.
Jiang Qian didn't say anything, and brought a few foreign friends to look at another stall, where they had displayed their silk.
Their production team reported to the local government and set up a small textile workshop in the brigade that specialized in hand-weaving.
The reason why the government allowed their brigade to do this was mainly to see if they could sell it this time.
If they can sell it, their team will have an additional source of income.
So when he saw Jiang Qian bringing foreign friends to see the silk, the old branch secretary was very excited.
After Jiang Qian greeted the old branch secretary, she took the sample cloth handed over by the other party and motioned the foreign woman to touch it. "You can feel the quality of this silk yourself. It is purely hand-woven and cannot be produced by machines. If you are a silk lover, I believe that this pure hand-woven silk will not disappoint you."
