Chapter 145 Cooperation

These apples were bought by Xu Wanning at the market in Beijing. Compared with the ones in the space, their appearance was average, but the taste was pretty good.

"Reciprocity, please accept these apples and give them to your brother, sister-in-law, nieces and nephews."

Mahuabian knew that Xu Wanning was not a person who liked taking advantage of others. Last time, she only gave some worthless pea corners, but she received all the ones from Xu Wanning. Fruit candies and even milk candies.

So this time, she didn’t shirk Apple.

"Okay, then I won't disturb your placement. Anyway, you know where my home is. If you need help, just go to me. Usually I don't go out unless there is nothing."

"Okay, thank you."

"Hey, you're welcome!"

When it was almost half past eleven, Xu Wanning left a note for Lin An and left with Song Han Jinchu.

She made an appointment with Tao Jingjing and she had to go to the Ministry of Foreign Trade today.

Xu Wanning first sent the two children to her aunt's house, and asked her sister-in-law Chen Ye to help take care of them. Then she went home and changed clothes, and then took the bus at the entrance of the courtyard and arrived at the Ministry of Foreign Trade.

Tao Jingjing was pacing back and forth at the gate, looking at the appointed time soon, but Xu Wanning hadn't come yet, so she couldn't help but not be anxious.

"Sister Jingjing."

Hearing the familiar voice, Tao Jingjing hurried forward to greet her: "Aning, you're finally here!"

"Have York and the others arrived already?"

Xu Wanning glanced at her watch. It was only one forty. , the time set with York and the others is at two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Not yet, but we have to make preparations in advance. Come in with me quickly."

Tao Jingjing pulled Xu Wanning through the door without any explanation.

In the reception room, Minister Yin of the Ministry of Foreign Trade personally received Xu Wanning.

"Comrade Xu is really young and promising."

"Minister Yin, you are so polite."

The two complimented each other, and then Minister Yin personally introduced today's situation to Xu Wanning.

"You also know that our country's foreign trade door has been opened a crack. If we want to speed up this process, we must truly cooperate with foreign businessmen. York and the others are well-known businessmen in the United States, and they are also interested in cooperating with our country. "

But there is a long way to go before the intention turns into actual cooperation. I know that you are not an employee of our Ministry of Foreign Trade, but there are reasons why I have to trouble you.

" I don’t quite agree with that. Although I am not an employee of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, I am a Chinese. As a member of the Chinese nation, I enjoy the care given to me by the country, and of course I must do my best to help the country. It is my duty and responsibility to contribute."

What does it matter if I am an employee of the Ministry of Foreign Trade?

As long as the cooperation with York can be implemented, she will also have a share of the merit medal.

"I feel ashamed that Comrade Xu has such a high level of ideological consciousness."

"Minister, let's talk about something serious. Otherwise, when foreign businessmen come, Comrade Xu will not know the specific situation and will not be able to participate in the exchange."

"That's right, that's right . Yes. Comrade Xu, that's it..."

At two o'clock, York and his party appeared at the Ministry of Foreign Trade on time.

Xu Wanning followed Minister Yin to receive him.

Also accompanying them were Director Tao Jingjing, Guo Haonan, Director Guo, and several other officers whom Xu Wanning had not yet had time to get to know.

York greeted Minister Yin first and then focused on Xu Wanning.

"Xu, I'm surprised to see you here. Why did you show up at the Ministry of Foreign Trade?"

"I am currently a non-staff employee of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and I can just participate in the task of receiving you. York, Celine " Na, James, I'm glad to see you again."

"Xu, I'm also glad to see you again." James' face drooped, his blue pupils full of disappointment: "But I couldn't see you." "I'm sorry for the two children."

"When I have the opportunity, I will take them to play with you."

Minister Yin felt a little numb when he listened to Xu Wanning communicating with the foreign guests without any obstacles.

Even Director Guo, who has the best foreign language skills in their Ministry of Foreign Trade, inevitably stumbles when communicating with foreign guests like York. This Comrade Xiao Xu really doesn't show his face!

Minister Yin is even more confident that cooperation can be negotiated.

When it came to the actual negotiation stage of cooperation, Xu Wanning did not participate too much. She only occasionally added a few words when the two parties did not communicate in professional terms.

In Tao Jingjing's words, professional matters should be handled by professionals. She only needs to do her job as a simultaneous interpreter and mascot.

"Unfortunately, Minister Yin, I personally feel that we cannot reach cooperation yet."

York's words were tantamount to pouring cold water on everyone at the Ministry of Foreign Trade.

Minister Yin hurriedly asked: "What is inappropriate? Mr. York, you can tell us directly, and we can communicate and find a suitable solution."

York spread his hands: "Because of Xu, I really want to talk to you. Cooperation with China, because I know that you Chinese people are all very lovely people, but I have to say that we really don’t have the need to cooperate with you at the moment, because you simply cannot meet our requirements.”

“From a personal point of view, I am happy to make friends with you Chinese people, but I am still a businessman, and I have to do it from the perspective of interests."

Minister Yin looked slumped.

What York said is correct. They are indeed not qualified to discuss cooperation with one of the best businessmen in the United States.

Xu Wanning listened to the entire conversation between the two parties and felt a little uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her mentality, and summoned up the courage to say: "York, can I take the liberty to talk to you?"

"Of course, Xu, you are our recognized friend, no matter what you want to say, We are all happy to listen."

Minister Yin and others also placed their hopes on Xu Wanning.

She can single-handedly change foreign guests' inherent impressions of China, and maybe she can actually promote this cooperation.

"I have a general understanding of the scope of your company's operations. It is true that we in China are not qualified to discuss cooperation with you to some extent, but things are not absolute. There are at least two things. We can try to communicate further."

"Xu, please tell us in detail."

"First of all, food. Our country is vast and rich in resources, and there are many kinds of cuisines, taking into account the tastes of people in different regions. In terms of snacks, we have our own unique recipes . I can confidently say that there are many authentic Chinese snacks, and you will fall in love with them after just one bite."

York and others did not object.

Because they thought about the meal on the train.
