Yan Ning poured a whole cup of spiritual milk into the chicken soup yesterday, and the effect is naturally obvious.
Even if I only have one last breath, I can still hold on.
Grandma Yan has fully recovered, so she doesn't need to stay to take care of her. She has things to do at Qi Ling's place!
After saying goodbye to her grandparents, Yan Ning drove back to where she lived.
After she entered the space, she went straight back to Qi Ling.
People and bicycles appeared in the alley near the food factory’s residential building.
Vegetables and eggs prepared by Mrs. Yan were hung on the handlebars of the bicycle.
Yan Ning pushed his bicycle to the door of the food factory’s staff building.
When she pushed her bicycle in, she ran into Qin Liming who was rushing out.
Yan Ning greeted him, "Fourth Uncle, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Qin Limin said with a bitter face, "It's still about the packaging production line. Master Yan's junior brother helped us find a semi-automatic packaging line for sale in Gangcheng.
But the person who provided this production line was a foreigner.
The other party will call us later to communicate.
But we don’t have anyone in our factory who is proficient in English. We are now looking for someone who knows English!"
Yan Ning's eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "Fourth Uncle, I know a little English, and I have no problem communicating with you in daily life.
If you trust me, I can give it a try."
Opportunities come to those who are prepared.
She passed the IELTS with a score of 9 in one try!
Who in the 21st century doesn’t know a few words of English?
The private kindergarten downstairs from her house starts teaching English from the early childhood class!
Qin Limin looked at Yan Ning in surprise, "You know English? Do you still learn English in Jingshi High School?"
In their generation, schools had English and Russian classes, but they are no longer taught in schools today.
Yan Ning shook his head. "I didn't learn it at school. I used to live downstairs from a female professor who had studied abroad. I learned English from her."
“That’s wonderful.”
Qin Limin said happily, "Then come with me to the factory director's office now. I'll rely on you for the phone call later."
He looked at the bicycle Yan Ning was pushing and said, "This bicycle is still new. Did you just buy it today?"
Yan Ning nodded and said, "I asked my friend to buy it for me in Tong City. There are many people in my family, so it would be more convenient for me to buy one myself."
Qin Liming asked her to push the bicycle into the gate and park it in the parking lot in the yard.
The vegetables and eggs were stored at the gatehouse.
The two hurried to the director's office of the food factory.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the director of the food factory and the director of the factory office sitting on the sofa with worried looks on their faces.
Qin Limin said with a smile: "Director, Director You, I found someone who can speak English."
As he said this, he turned sideways to let the two of them look at Yan Ning behind him, "This is my niece, Yan Ning, who grew up in Beijing.
She taught herself English with an English professor, so why don't we let her try it first?
If there are no other problems, let her do the English translation."
Director Gao took a look at Yan Ning. Although he was young, his temperament was convincing.
Director Gao: "Then let her try!"
Qin Liming nodded and asked Yan Ning to sit on the stool next to him.
After waiting for about half an hour, the office phone rang.
Director Gao quickly picked up the microphone.
"Hello! Hello, this is the Tongshi Food Factory in Jilin Province.
Yes, yes, we have a translator here, okay."
Director Gao looked at Yan Ning and motioned her to go over and answer the phone.
Yan Ning walked over and took over the conversation, speaking in English, "Hello! Please go ahead."
The other party was a British man who briefly described the reasons for selling the production line and its condition.
After listening to the other party, Yan Ning repeated it in Chinese to Director Gao and others.
"They said they had replaced the newly developed fully automatic production line.
So this old semi-automatic production line was eliminated,
They’ve only used this old one for three years, so it’s still 60% new.”
Director Gao: "Then ask him roughly how much it will cost?"
Yan Ning then asked the other party in English: "Our factory director would like to know how much you want to sell this production line for?"
Yan Ning translated to Director Gao, "They said they want 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, but I don't think it will be that high. We can cut the price in half."
Director Gao thought for a moment and said, "Then you should talk to him first. If it works out, we can arrange a time to come over and take a look at the machine."
Yan Ning nodded and said into the microphone in English:
"Mr. John, since you have developed a fully automatic production line,
Then these semi-automatic production lines are just a pile of scrap metal to you.
I think no one except us would want to buy this production line,
At that time, you can only sell it to a scrap yard, and the money you get may not even be HK$50,000.
We sincerely want to buy this production line. We offer HK$50,000. Any more would be uneconomical.
You can get more money than selling it to a scrap yard, and you can also let this production line continue to realize its value.
Mr. John, what do you think? If you agree,
Then let's arrange a time to go to Gangcheng to inspect the machine and sign the contract."
The other party did not answer immediately and seemed to be discussing something with the person next to him.
From time to time, the words "forty thousand" and "too low" came from the microphone.
After a while, John said on the phone:
"Okay then, we agree to sell it to you for 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. Please come over as soon as possible to sign the contract!"
Yan Ning thought for a moment and said, "Mr. John, we still have to go through various formalities in Hong Kong City, which may take a month.
How about setting the date for August? We will contact you then.”
To go to Hong Kong City, you need to apply for a passport and go through various formalities, which will definitely take about a month.
John naturally agreed. If someone could take over the obsolete production line, they could make some money, so it wouldn't hurt to wait for a month.
Yan Ning hung up the phone.
Director Gao hurriedly asked her, "How is it? What did the other party say?"
Yan Ning: "The other party agreed to sell it to us for 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. I thought it would take about a month to go to Hong Kong City to handle various formalities.
So we set the inspection date in August."
Director Gao nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, then I will go to the city to apply for it in the next few days and get the money and various procedures done.
If we delay less, we can get the machine back sooner.
If we had replaced the product packaging earlier, we would have been able to successfully secure that export order."
Qin Limin spoke up, "Then Director, who should we send? Do we need to bring an English translator?
Otherwise, I'm worried that when we get to Hong Kong, we won't have our own translator, and what if we get scammed by the other party? "
