How could Mu's mother possibly make so many by herself? Lin Chuchu said this simply to try and get some orders for the garment factory.
The foreign friend nodded, "We understand that. Don't worry, we will extend the delivery date when signing the contract."
The minister didn't utter a single word from beginning to end. Anyone who can be a leader naturally knows what is good for the country.
Lin Chuchu carefully introduced the clothes and even asked Mu's mother to make suits in other colors on the spot.
"So beautiful, Lin! Can you sell us these clothes? We really love them."
Lin Chuchu nodded. "Of course, these clothes are gifts I prepared for you and your friends."
The foreign friend immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Lin. Of course, I won't let your mother do it for nothing. We are willing to buy it at the original price."
Lin Chuchu naturally disagreed, and instead offered a discount of 20 yuan per set.
The foreign friend immediately put on the suit.
Wearing new clothes makes a big difference to one's overall appearance.
Lin Chuchu finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the person off.
Mu's mother drank several sips of tea for a long time.
"My foreign friend has such a strong presence. If you weren't next to me, my hands would be shaking."
Lin Chuchu smiled and gave Mu's mother a thumbs up.
"Mom, you're amazing! Even foreign friends say the clothes you make are great."
Mother Mu smiled broadly, "Of course, we can't afford to lose in front of our foreign friends."
After joking around for a while, Lin Chuchu changed her carefree demeanor and her whole aura became serious.
"Mom, you'll be very busy soon. The garment factory will come to talk to you about cooperation. I know them, so they shouldn't try to lower the price too much."
She secured so many orders for the garment factory, and she believed the factory manager would give her face.
Upon hearing this, Mother Mu smiled and nodded. She was incredibly proud that she had done something practical for the country.
Lin Chuchu, Mu Chen, and Mu's mother were leisurely drinking tea when suddenly, the minister's deputy hurriedly walked over.
"Comrade Lin, the minister requests your assistance."
Lin Chuchu nodded and immediately agreed.
"Mom, you and Mu Chen rest here for a while, I'll go take a look."
"Go quickly, don't keep the minister waiting too long."
Mu Chen wanted to go with them, but he couldn't leave his mother behind.
"Just call out if you need anything!"
"I see."
Lin Chuchu approached the minister. The exhibition area in front of her belonged to an electronics factory, but she didn't recognize the people there.
The two parties were signing a contract. The minister handed the contract to Lin Chuchu and pointed out the prices on it.
“The price listed above is wrong; it’s lower than what they negotiated. Now the other party is angry, saying we’re not honest and want to back out.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuchu understood everything.
The people at the electronics factory must have seen that Lin Chuchu's clothes were priced high, so they wanted to sell them at a higher price.
The people who came this time didn't understand the exhibition. Electronic products are products that are sold every year at the exhibition, and the prices are almost transparent. Prices don't just go up whenever they want.
Moreover, the other party was clearly looking for trouble. They knew the bottom price, but agreed to the electronics factory's inflated price and tricked the electronics factory into stamping the contract. Now they are suing them.
"Lin, I trust you all the time, and I've always trusted your country. I never expected you to inflate prices. Are all your products overpriced?"
Lin Chuchu frowned, sensing the malice in the other person's tone.
Lin Chuchu calmly replied, "How could that be? Our price is just the market price plus tariffs and transportation fees."
"Of course, if you think the price is too high, you can certainly ask your country to lower the import tariffs."
Lin Chuchu directly pointed out the crux of the problem.
"Our country has experienced war and internal strife, and its international standing is steadily improving. I'm also curious, why does your country charge us higher tariffs than it charges other countries?"
"Your country always talks about equality for all, so why is it so assertive in its attitude towards China?"
The other party was speechless. They came to China to import goods because labor wages were low, and the products were of good quality and cheap.
Their country's tariff increases are nothing more than treating China as a sucker to be fleeced.
If China wants to gain a foothold in the international arena, it will inevitably have to pay a price.
The other party didn't know what to say, and saying more would clearly escalate the matter into an international issue.
He gritted his teeth and changed the subject, "Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about the contract. You offered such low prices to others, why did you offer me such a high price? Are you trying to take advantage of me?"
"If the amount on the contract hadn't been changed yet, I would have signed it."
"We demand that you and your country provide us with a reasonable explanation for this matter."
The minister's forehead was covered in sweat, his mind racing as he tried to come up with a way to smoothly resolve the problem at hand.
He glared fiercely at the electronics factory employees. After this matter was resolved, he would report it to higher authorities.
Lin Chuchu glanced at the contract. "This contract is invalid. This is the contract for the electric fan, and this price is exactly the price of the electric fan."
"Besides, you should know that prices are rising in China, so prices are bound to be higher. Didn't you do any research before you came to China?"
The foreign friend was stunned. "Impossible! I just looked at it. This is the contract for buying the refrigerator."
"Don't think you can fool me just because we don't know Chinese characters."
Li Chuchu frowned. "Why would I lie to you?"
Lin Chuchu pointed to the three words on the contract, "Look, isn't this an electric fan? It was indeed our staff's mistake; they took the wrong contract. If you still insist on not accepting it, we can compensate you. We can sell it to you at a 10% discount."
