"Maybe you're not dressed warmly enough today."
Jiang Yue suppressed a laugh and said to Jin Bei, "I have no interest in dance halls, and I'm already married. If my husband finds out you're taking me to a dance hall, he'll definitely beat you up first."
My husband is very petty; I dare not upset him. Let's hurry to the textile factory.
She was saying this to Lu Jingnian.
Lu Jingnian is currently on a mission, and she can't let him worry about her anymore.
Suppressing the urge to turn back, Jiang Yue pulled Yao Hua and the other three people out of the hotel quickly.
Du Yingying, who came downstairs afterward, saw that Lu Jingnian had already arrived at the hotel entrance, so she quickly chased after him, "Brother, slow down, wait for me!"
Since you don't want to go for hot pot, how about we go to a dance hall? I know a lot of dances, I can teach you.
As Du Yingying spoke, she leaned against Lu Jingnian and rubbed against him.
Lu Jingnian gave her a cold look and said to Duan Suyao, who had followed him, "I have something to do, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Du Yingying wanted to chase after her, but Duan Suyao grabbed her arm.
"Yingying, he has something to do, so we can't go. How about I go shopping with you?"
Duan Suyao made the suggestion with a smile, looking at Du Yingying with a flattering expression.
Don't let Du Yingying's seemingly lustful and love-struck appearance fool you; she's actually quite cunning. Their mission is to get close to her, find out where the goods she's about to transport are, and also investigate the people behind her.
"What is he going to do?" Du Yingying asked unhappily. "Didn't you promise to spend today with me?"
Duan Suyao shook her head with a smile: "I can't say, he told me not to."
"Sisters, you're not kidding me, are you?"
Du Yingying snorted unhappily and turned to leave.
Duan Suyao sighed inwardly and quickly followed. This woman was really hard to please. Du Yingying liked the thrill of conquering men, so she liked men who were good-looking but cold and indifferent to women.
This is also the reason why Lu Jingnian was sent by the higher-ups this time. After all, Lu Jingnian is older and has the most affection for Du Yingying in every way.
However, Du Yingying has another problem: once she gets the man she sets her sights on, she immediately loses interest in him and either abandons him or kills him directly.
This is also why Lu Jingnian dares to openly dislike Du Yingying.
"Yingying, you've misunderstood. My brother and I were introduced by Uncle Quan. We'll need your help a lot in the future, so how could we dare to tease you? My brother really did have something to do today. You'll understand when he comes back."
...
On the other side.
Jiang Yue and Yao Hua had arrived at the first textile factory.
Because of Jin Bei's connections, the factory manager personally received them and was very kind.
"Mr. Jiang, take a look. This is fabric that we have produced in our factory."
The factory manager took the fabric list and handed it to Jiang Yue. "I can take you to visit our workshop in a little while. Although our textile factory is not big, we produce a wide variety of fabrics, both in terms of quality and type."
Jiang Yue looked carefully at the fabric list in her hand. The quality of the fabrics was indeed good, but both the patterns and the samples were somewhat outdated.
Then Factory Manager Chen said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang. With Young Master Jin here, we're friends. I'll definitely give you the lowest price."
After reviewing the fabric list, Jiang Yue smiled and said, "The quality of these fabrics is indeed quite good, Director Chen. I'd like to take a look at the workshop."
"Of course, I'll take you there."
Factory Director Chen warmly led Jiang Yue and the others to the workshop.
This textile factory has been around for many years, and the machines inside are all old-fashioned textile machines, which explains why the fabrics produced are all of the old patterns and types.
After visiting the workshop, Jiang Yue smiled and said to Factory Director Chen, "It's clear that Factory Director Chen's textile factory is excellent in both management and product production. We really want to cooperate with you. However, the final decision on which fabric to purchase rests with our general manager. Factory Director Chen, please prepare some sample lists of fabrics for me. Once our general manager confirms them, I will give you an answer."
With Jin Bei present, Jiang Yue couldn't directly say that the fabric pattern was too outdated, so she spoke very tactfully.
"No problem, I'll have someone get a sample order for Mr. Jiang right away."
If you're selling fabric, you'll definitely need to prepare a sample list of fabrics. They have plenty of those; it's just a matter of a few words.
Having taken the fabric sample list, Jiang Yue didn't bother the other party any further and quickly left with her people.
After leaving the textile factory, Jin Bei asked Jiang Yue, "Jiang Yue, I clearly felt that you didn't want to cooperate with him just now, so why did you say those things?"
Jiang Yue replied, "Business is mostly about mutual benefit. Helping others is helping yourself. Even if a deal falls through, you should still leave a good impression. This business may not have gone through, but who knows, we might be able to cooperate next time?"
Jin Bei frowned upon hearing this. "So you mean that even if a deal falls through, you can't fall out with the other party? Isn't that just acting like a pushover?"
Jiang Yue was speechless. She rolled her eyes at Jin Bei and asked, "How do you interpret this?"
Did I tell you to act like a coward?
Remember, doing business is about mutual benefit. If it's advantageous for both parties, and the other party has a good attitude, your attitude shouldn't be bad either. If they have a bad attitude, you don't need to put up with their bad temper.
"However, what I'm saying only applies when you're in a dominant position. If you're begging the other party for a favor, then you really have to act like a grandson."
Isn't this normal? Isn't it common for the service provider to act subservient to the client?
Jiang Yue's words seemed to overturn Jin Bei's understanding: "Is doing business really that difficult?"
He thought his uncles did business very easily; they were fawned over wherever they went, and could close deals with just a few words.
“It is indeed difficult for someone who starts from scratch, but you are Jin Bei, you are different.”
Jiang Yue patted his shoulder, "You have the Jin family behind you. I can't speak for other places, but in S City, if you're doing business, absolutely no one will dare to make you act like a grandson."
Jin Bei pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "I don't need the Jin family to back me up. I want to do business on my own. I don't need them to make things convenient for me because of the Jin family."
"Why not rely on the Jin family?" Yao Hua didn't understand. "If I had such a powerful family, I would rely on them."
If there's a shortcut, then take it properly. Why go looking for trouble?
Yao Hua couldn't understand.
“Because I am Jin Bei.” Jin Bei raised his head, looking proud. “If I rely on my family, they will only look down on me and think that I am still a child who has not grown up, so I have to listen to their arrangements in everything.”
Only when I become stronger through my own efforts will they stop interfering in my life.
