Chapter 1114: Going Up

Zhou Xinqun was both excited and nervous. It was her first time doing business with a foreigner. She didn't know how much to report, and she had no idea.

"Xiaonan, how much is this report appropriate? Will foreigners be unhappy if they are taller?"

Zhou Xinqun forgot Tang Xiaonan's age and discussed her as an adult.

Tang Xiaonan sighed in her heart. What Zhou Xinqun was worried about now was not whether the business would be successful, but whether Johnny and the others would be angry. His mentality was really humble.

This is not to blame for Zhou Xinqun. Now many compatriots in China basically have this kind of mentality. They naturally have a kind of "servility" towards foreigners. They always feel that everything in foreign countries is good, and foreigners are superior to others.

[It’s not that the author belittles compatriots. In China in the 1980s and 1990s, there was indeed a slavishness towards foreigners, and foreigners had many privileges in China. Many foreign garbage people became upper-class people in China. It’s really sad.]

Not to mention now, in the 1990s, there were still many compatriots who had this kind of thinking. Any foreigner would be superior to others in China, even if he was a poor black man.

After analyzing it, Tang Xiaonan felt that there were two reasons. The first was the Chinese tradition of hospitality that has been passed down for thousands of years. They would warmly entertain guests from afar. Foreigners are VIPs in China.

The second reason is that China is really too poor now, and it is not in line with international standards. Many compatriots think that foreigners are rich. Foreigners eat beef and milk every day, and there is gold on the ground.

But I don't know that even in the United States, there are many poor people who can't afford to eat, and not all of them are rich.

It is precisely because of this kind of thinking that many compatriots and foreigners have been cheated in doing business, just like Zhou Xinqun is now.

"Auntie, how much are you going to offer for such a crystal card?" Tang Xiaonan asked.

Zhou Xinqun thought for a while and said, "The workmanship is more complicated, and the materials are also expensive. The quotation for a card issuance can be at least 20 cents. I can't say for sure. I have to go to the factory to ask. It should not exceed 30 cents."

After she finished speaking, she asked worriedly: "Is it too expensive? Or should I offer a lower price? The big deal is to earn less."

Tang Xiaonan shook her head, "It's too cheap, so how about it, Auntie, you report the triangle five."

This kind of crystal hairpin will definitely cost a few dollars abroad, and of course there are tariffs and other costs involved, but even after all the costs are removed, Johnny and the others can still make a lot of money.

The price over there in Xiangjiang must be very expensive, otherwise these four foreigners would not have come to Wucheng to find channels, and Sanjiaowu is absolutely cheap.

Zhou Xinqun was taken aback, and said nervously, "It's too expensive, what if they find someone else to do it?"

She is afraid of losing a big client, and there are many competitors.

Tang Xiaonan smiled and said, "Don't worry, auntie, they won't speak our language, and your competitors can't speak foreign language either. There will definitely be no problem in a short time. Besides, if you don't disclose this quotation to the outside world, how can others know about it."

Zhou Xinqun's eyes lit up, yes, as long as she doesn't tell, no ghost will know.

My heart calmed down immediately, and Tang Xiaonan translated a number, "Triangle is 8 points, she said there will be a fluctuation of 5 points, and I will go to the manufacturer to ask for confirmation. What do you think?"

She didn't take Zhou Xinqun's kickbacks, but she had to eat those of the four foreigners. She was kind enough to earn three cents for a card.
