Several people took out all the orders, checked, sorted and calculated them one by one.
The abacus in Zhao Xiangbei's hand clattered loudly, and finally, he figured out the result.
He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and then spoke calmly: "Let's start with the small amount. Foods like crispy fish slices and fish tofu are not very popular among foreigners. Only a few overseas Chinese ordered some. The order amount is 123,000 yuan, the canned fish amount is 400,000, the canned soup is 300,000, and the canned beef is 800,000. The total amount is more than 1.62 million yuan."
Lin Jin took a deep breath: "I knew there were a lot of orders, but I didn't expect it to be this much..."
Ying Xiaoling was also stunned and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Xiang Lingxiao's face was full of disbelief, and he thought he had heard it wrong.
Jiang Wanyue was also shocked.
You know, even in the 1980s, when the economy was developing rapidly, people with an annual income of 10,000 yuan were rare, let alone now, in 1975.
And theirs is not ten thousand, nor one hundred thousand, but over one million!
She exhaled and asked, "What about the bamboo weaving?"
Zhao Xiangbei nodded and replied, "The bamboo weaving factory needs to see samples before placing an order, so the order amount is not that high, but the tea sets and vases on site were also sold for 340,000 yuan."
"It's worth the trip, it's really worth the trip!" Xiang Lingxiao had no idea what to say and just kept repeating this sentence over and over again.
Jiang Wanyue said, "Xiangbei, Xiaoling, all foreign trade orders in Guangcheng will be handed over to you two to be responsible for. Is there any problem?"
Zhao Xiangbei shouted: "No problem!"
Ying Xiaoling was filled with excitement: "Thank you for the trust of the factory director, I will definitely complete the task!"
After packing up, Jiang Qizhen walked towards Jiang Wanyue with an excited look on his face: "Wanyue, thank you for your help at this Canton Fair. Your designs are very popular with foreigners and have brought nearly two million in foreign exchange to our textile factory. I would like to hire you as a design consultant for our textile factory. After you become an employee of the textile factory, the company will allocate housing and the welfare benefits will be the highest standards. Do you think it's okay?"
Jiang Wanyue shook her head without even thinking about it.
If you become an employee of a textile factory, designing clothes for the factory becomes your job, and naturally you won't get the 1,000 yuan design fee.
"No need, Uncle Jiang." She looked embarrassed. "I am already too busy handling the affairs of the two factories. If I work for the textile factory again, I am afraid I won't even have time to sleep. Uncle Jiang, if you have anything to do, just ask me for help. I will find time to complete it."
Jiang Qizhen sighed regretfully: "Since you don't want to, then I won't force you. At this Canton Fair, I will remit money to you according to the price of the clothes you designed for the textile factory. Remember to check it."
Jiang Wanyue smiled: "Thank you, Uncle Jiang."
"Why should I say thank you? I should thank you on behalf of the textile factory!"
Jiang Qizhen's words came from the heart.
When Rongjun returned to the Jiang family nine years ago, there was a big quarrel between the two sides, so they severed their relationship.
Unexpectedly, Wanyue was still willing to help the textile factory.
This relationship was maintained.
Not only Jiang Qizhen thanked Jiang Wanyue, but the staff at several nearby booths were also very grateful to her.
When they participated in the exhibition in the past few years, basically no one was interested.
This time, because Jiang Wanyue brought in traffic and attracted the attention of many foreigners, they did get some orders.
The candied fruit factory and the rice dumpling factory also sent some products to Jiang Wanyue and his team to take back.
In exchange, Jiang Wanyue also gave the remaining products in the warehouse to the other party, and both parties exchanged contact information.
After the Canton Fair ended, the group returned to the guesthouse and slept soundly.
Since they didn't buy train tickets for the next day, the group simply spent the day in Guangcheng, wandering around, experiencing the city's customs and culture, and buying many specialties that were not available in Hubei Province.
Jiang Wanyue also bought a lot of books on purpose, including new books she bought on site and old books she bought at the scrap yard. She bought a total of six or seven snakeskin bags.
Some of the books are sent to primary schools to enrich children's extracurricular reading.
Some of the books were placed in the factory for the workers to read during their breaks and broaden their horizons.
It was only on the third day after the Canton Fair ended that they returned home.
This time I bought the ticket in advance. Although I didn’t get a soft sleeper, I got a soft seat, which is at least more comfortable than a hard seat.
"Wanyue, I'm going to talk to the flight attendant."
Lin Jin had been thinking about the train sales channel, so when the crew was free, he took the products and went up to sell them.
This train departed from Guangcheng. The crew members were all from Guangcheng. They were quite familiar with the Canton Fair. When they heard Lin Jin say that their factory had obtained foreign exchange orders worth more than one million at the Canton Fair, they were all stunned.
"The products of our processing plant are selling very well in our Hu Province, with a monthly income of tens of thousands." Lin Jin said with a smile, "This time we have opened up the foreign market, and the monthly sales are estimated to reach 200,000 or 300,000. I think that since foreigners have tasted our products, it is time for people all over the country to taste the specialties of our Hu Province."
With just one sentence, she elevated the food produced by a village-run processing plant to the specialty of a province.
She continued to promote her product, "I looked at what's on sale on the train. Besides water, there are canned biscuits. For meals, there are some cakes and steamed buns. These are indeed filling, but I have to admit that they are really not tasty if you eat them for a few days in a row. They taste bland in your mouth. Our food has a variety of flavors, spicy, five-spice, sweet and spicy... They can be regarded as seasonings on the boring journey."
Several flight attendants tried the fish tofu and meat tofu, and they were indeed delicious and could be eaten with steamed buns.
However, they couldn't decide on such a big matter. The foreman said, "The food sold on the train has been strictly inspected and needs approval from above. I will report this to the leader. If the leader agrees, someone will call you."
A smile appeared on Lin Jin's face.
As long as it is reported, this matter will most likely be negotiated, because their Xiaojing Non-staple Food Processing Factory is no longer an unknown entity after this Canton Fair.
The train traveled from south to north, passing through several cities, and after three days, it finally arrived in Lake Province.
As soon as they got off the train, they felt the coolness.
It was quite hot in Guangcheng, so they were wearing light clothes. However, it was already late autumn in Hubei Province at the end of November, so they quickly put on their coats, carried their things, and walked out of the train station.
The factory's driver, Wu Zhiqiang, was already waiting at the entrance of the train station.
Seeing them coming out, he hurried over to help Jiang Wanyue carry her things, and said happily: "Everyone talks about you every day. It is the greatest blessing that you come back safely. Let's go, get in the car, and go to the state-owned restaurant to have a meal first, and then we will go back."
The group spent three days on the train without having a proper meal. After arriving at the restaurant, they ordered all the dishes and ate to their heart's content.
After the meal, we got on the truck and drove towards Xiaojing Brigade.
