Chapter 251: The Embarrassment of Going to the Soviet Union Without a Translator...
Chapter 251
Lin Mujin and Qin Zheng returned to Shenzhen. They now have too many responsibilities and there is really no way they can take a break.
"This time it's my turn to go on a business trip abroad." Qin Zheng was a little reluctant.
Lin Mujin soothed him, "Don't be so ungrateful. Your assistant has already done the preliminary work. You can make the final decision. It won't take long."
What's not like her? She bumped into him without knowing it.
The agents are all known to me now.
Qin Zheng beckoned, "Why don't you come with me? The seafood there is good. Don't you like king crab?"
Lin Mujin was a little moved.
Qin Zheng added, "The Soviet Union still has diamond mines. You need a lot of diamonds, right? You can go and negotiate, and you can save a lot."
Lin Mujin said, "The current purchase price is not expensive."
Because she only buys small diamonds of average quality in large quantities, the seller will naturally give her the highest discount.
But she knew that Qin Zheng said this just as an excuse, he simply wanted her to go with him.
So I made a decision. "You go ahead. I'll take care of some important things first, and then I'll come find you."
Qin Zheng agreed reluctantly.
After getting rid of the annoying guy, Lin Mujin felt that her work efficiency had improved.
I visited every factory and spent half a day at the research institute. Then I went home to pack my things and prepare to fly to Moscow, and then transfer to Togliatti.

"Wife, get in the car."
Qin Zheng diligently helped open the car door.
"Mr. Qin." Xu Tong greeted.
Since we were not here for negotiations this time, we did not bring Qi Dan with us, only Xu Tong.
Qin Zheng nodded and said, "Get in the car."
Xu Tong got into the passenger seat very consciously, and bodyguard Xu was driving.
Qin Zheng took Lin Mujin's hand and asked softly, "Wife, do you miss me?"
Lin Mujin glanced forward awkwardly, "Is this the latest model?"
Qin Zheng knew his wife was shy, so he stopped asking for the answer and followed her lead, saying, "Yes, it's a new car launched this year. Doesn't it look a bit like my Santana?"
Lin Mujin nodded, "It is true, but it's not as spacious as the Santana."
Qin Zheng nodded, "Yes, it drives fine."
Lin Mujin was curious, "Why did the other party suddenly..."
Weren't you still hesitant before, even though you were inclined to cooperate?
Qin Zheng explained with a smile, "Wife, this is all your credit. Didn't you say that the Russians love to drink? As long as we can make them drink, everything will be easy."
She could watch a video saying that a senior domestic military officer got the Russians drunk, and only then did the Russians agree to sell her a new aircraft at a low price.
It was later confirmed to be a rumor, but the Russians are definitely famous for their love of drinking.
She just said it casually at the time, but she didn't expect Qin Zheng to listen to it.
"I found a guy in the army who can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. It really works. He gave in after just two rounds of drinking." Qin Zheng hugged Lin Mujin excitedly and gave her a kiss.
Lin Mujin patted him and said, "Stop messing around. When will the official contract be signed?"
Even if the contract is not signed, there will still be changes.
Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Tomorrow, because our cooperation method is a bit complicated, the people below are still discussing some details."
Lin Mujin was very happy. Once the contract was signed, their Star Glory level would be upgraded.
Although the product is very popular now, and is sold as much as it is produced, and is also exported to some Southeast Asian countries, it is still incomparable to motorcycles and cars.
Qin Zheng said, "After we sign the contract tomorrow, we'll go to Moscow. That's the only place we can have fun."
Lin Mujin glanced at him and said, "You won't let me talk about diamonds anymore."
Qin Zheng acted like a rogue, "You're here to accompany me, what are you talking about diamonds? Isn't there someone specifically responsible for that?"
Well, I'm taking it back.
Lin Mujin looked out the window and said, "The Soviet Union is vast and sparsely populated."
But now we are a socialist country, and foreigners are not allowed to contract land.
Qin Zheng said, "It's not as good as back home. Many places here are not suitable for human habitation."
Lin Mujin naturally knew this, so she started jokingly, "I heard the women here are very beautiful."
Qin Zheng continued, "There are more fat ladies."
This sentence made Lin Mujin so amused that she couldn't even straighten her back.
Qin Zheng leaned close to her ear and said, "I'm always by your side when I'm out there. You don't have to worry about my beauty trap."
Lin Mujin believed it. "I don't believe you, but I believe Mr. Xu. Ah Jin, do you think we can invest abroad?"
Qin Zheng became interested, "What to invest in?"
Lin Mujin began to fantasize, "Farms, oil, gold mines, gem mines... Haha... It's so beautiful just thinking about it."
Qin Zheng also followed suit, "Although it may seem like daydreaming, it's not impossible. Land contracts in Australia are very cheap. As for stones, the Middle East has the most, but there's still a war going on there. Besides, there's too much attention being paid to it, and people like us with limited experience can't get involved."
Lin Mujin agreed, "They are all state-owned enterprises and giants, and they are all backed by the state."
Qin Zheng touched his chin, "So we can turn our attention to Africa. There are not only oil but also gold and diamond mines there. Moreover, Africa's economy is backward, so we can get involved."
The more he talked about it, the more feasible it seemed. "We have money and people, so going to Africa to buy mines seems to be feasible. Let's study it carefully later."
The car arrived at the factory soon.
The scale is quite large.
Everyone went directly to the guesthouse and put their luggage.
Qin Zheng said, "Let's go eat. You must not have eaten well on the plane."
Lin Mujin looked at the time and then realized that she needed to adjust the watch. She knew that China was in the East 8th District, so which district was the Soviet Union in?
She doesn’t know!
I touched my stomach and felt a little hungry.
Lin Mujin asked, "Just the four of us? Without an interpreter?"
Qin Zheng was a little embarrassed, "We only brought an interpreter, and we still need him for the negotiations."
Lin Mujin knew that the other party had important matters to attend to, so she naturally wouldn't let anyone come over. "Then let's go."
At worst, you can use internationally accepted gestures, but you can't kill a living person by holding their urine.
Qin Zheng enthusiastically introduced, "Although this place is not by the sea, it is next to the Volga River. We have river fish and some Soviet specialties. They taste pretty good."

The four of them sat down by the window in the restaurant and started ordering.
Because of the language barrier, the menu still has no pictures.
I tried to speak English, but the other party waved their hands to indicate that they didn't understand.
Lin Mujin sighed. She should have thought of it earlier.
But she had a solution. She pulled the waitress to a nearby table, pointed at a fried fish dish from a distance, and nodded heavily.
The waiter understood and gave a thumbs up before lowering his head and quickly recording it.
Then Lin Mujin went to another table and pointed at the casserole and soup.
And so, I finished ordering the dishes with great difficulty.
I handed over a five-ruble tip; it was what he deserved.
