"It's true that we were too eager for success and fell into the trap of these foreigners!"
"At worst, it's all for nothing this time. At least I've saved my capital. In the future, I'll gain wisdom and never believe these foreigners' nonsense again."
Although several men said this, their expressions were still angry, and they could not be so relaxed. The workers worked overtime to drive out this large amount of cloth, so that it could be exported abroad and generate foreign exchange for the country.
But now they are being tricked by foreigners. Not only are they unable to make money, but they are also charged with labor charges. They have no shame in returning to Shanghai.
Tang Niannian listened for a few times, walked closer, and saw the signs hung by these people. They were all representatives of the Hucheng Textile Factory.
Before the liberation of Shanghai, Shanghai was a gathering place for the textile industry, and it still is now. These textile factories were obviously plotted by foreigners.
"what happened?"
Tang Niannian walked over and asked.
"Comrade Xiao Tang!"
Representatives from several textile factories greeted each other with enthusiasm.
They all saw Tang Niannian's performance these days and were convinced by her.
They told the story exactly. At the Spring Canton Fair, the fabrics from the Hucheng Textile Factory were very popular and a large number of orders were sold. Moreover, many foreign businessmen said that the Autumn Canton Fair would be held in the second half of the year and they hoped they could produce more.
"We took it seriously and worked overtime after we got back. When the cloth came out, these foreigners changed their faces and said that the batch of cloth ordered for the Spring Canton Fair was not sold well abroad and the price could not be sold. They couldn't bear to let us lose all our money, so they set a price that could only break even our capital. Of course we didn't agree with it. This price barely broke our capital, and we couldn't even make back the manpower. Our work for the past six months has been in vain!"
Tang Niannian frowned slightly and asked, "Why didn't you sign a contract with foreign businessmen at the Spring Canton Fair?"
Since these foreigners want goods, they have to sign a contract and pay a deposit. This is the basic rule of doing business.
Several men changed their expressions and blamed themselves: "At that time, we proposed to sign the contract, but those foreigners said that the money they brought was not enough to pay the deposit, and they would have to wait until the cloth was sold before they could get the money. They also guaranteed that the cloth would be popular. They said He gave us many reasons and deceived us!"
"I heard that foreigners are very honest when doing business. Who knew they were so shameless!" another man said angrily.
Tang Niannian rolled his eyes, these people are too naive!
"There is no businessman without treachery. Which business person will honestly abide by the rules? This is not the fault of the foreign businessmen for not being honest, it is just that you are too stupid!"
Tang Niannian was unceremonious. From the perspective of domestic manufacturers, it was true that foreigners were too shameless and never tired of deceit. Businessmen all wanted to buy goods at low prices and sell them at high prices to make the biggest difference.
Moreover, these foreigners have a certain bottom line, and the prices they offer can maintain their profits and will not cause these factories to suffer too much losses.
If these cloths were not sold to foreigners, they would not only take up space in the warehouse, but would also become infested with insects and mold, making them less and less valuable. If she had not come, the fate of these cloths would have been to be sold to foreign businessmen at low prices.
In her previous life, she read the information and said that at the beginning of the reform and opening up, Chinese people suffered a lot when doing business with foreign businessmen, all because of ignorance. The few people in front of her also made ignorant and naive mistakes.
Several men who were old enough to be Tang Niannian's father turned red in the face and lowered their heads in shame.
Miss Tang was right, they were indeed too stupid!
They have caused heavy losses to the country, and now they all hope that someone will give them a good beating so that they feel better.
Tang Niannian asked again about the price of this batch of cloth. If he wanted to make money, he would have to pay one dollar and fifty-one meters. The price offered by the foreigners was one dollar and fifty-one meters, so he could only protect his capital.
"Which foreign businessmen are they?"
As soon as Tang Niannian asked, the expressions of the men changed and they all looked forward with angry expressions.
Several foreigners walked over arrogantly, and deliberately walked up to them and said loudly: "Have you thought about it? If you don't sell those cloths to us, they will just pile up in the warehouse and become moldy. Don't make mistakes because of small mistakes." big!"
"We will seriously consider it!"
Tang Niannian replied neither humble nor arrogantly.
"The price will only be lower, not higher. You don't actually need to think about it anymore. Besides selling to us, who else can you sell to!"
Several foreigners laughed and swaggered into the exhibition hall. They were sure that the batch of cloth could not be sold, because they had negotiated with other foreign businessmen to keep the price to the lowest, and then they would eat this large amount of cloth and share the spoils collectively.
They like to come to China to buy goods. The goods are of high quality and low price, and the people are silly and easy to deceive. The batch of cloth they bought at the Canton Fair in the spring was sold out abroad. They made a lot of money. This batch of cloth is larger. The lower the price, the more money they will make, haha!
These foreigners dreamed of getting rich and walked away triumphantly.
"It's too much!"
Several textile factory representatives were so angry that their faces were livid and their fists were clenched, wanting to fight these foreign devils.
But they cannot be impulsive and must put the overall situation first.
"Don't worry, the Canton Fair is not over yet, maybe these foreigners will change their minds and buy at a high price!" Tang Niannian comforted.
Several people smiled bitterly. Even a three-year-old child would not believe such words. If they were foreigners, they were already sure of winning, so why would they raise the price again?
Director Xie's eyes flashed, and he suddenly thought of the mysterious deaths of Xu Laifeng's three people, and his heart jumped violently.
"Xiao Tang is right, there are always twists and turns, maybe a miracle will happen tomorrow!"
Director Xie smiled and said something about idealism. The other people were still confused, thinking that Tang Niannian and Director Xie were just trying to comfort them and did not believe that a miracle would happen.
After the exhibition ended in the afternoon, Tang Niannian returned to the hotel and went out to eat with Shen Xiao. Emil and Bova knew each other well and did not follow them and went out to play by themselves.
After eating, they returned to the hotel and went to work in the space first.
It was late at night, and the city of Yangcheng was quiet, and the hotel was also quiet. The lights in every room were turned off, and everyone was basically asleep.
Tang Niannian and Shen Xiao put on props. Her cosplay was the Virgin Mary, while Shen Xiao was the God of Death, one white and one black. She also specially found a pair of feather wings. She collected a lot of filming props in the film and television city in the last days.
She wasn't sure whether the Virgin had wings. Anyway, the angels in the west all had wings, so just put them on.
First, she went to plan the rooms of the foreign devils in the textile factory. During the day, she found out the room numbers and went to each door one by one to cause trouble.
"You scare them first. You don't need to say anything. Just put the sickle around their necks!"
Tang Niannian whispered, Shen Xiao couldn't speak English, and the secret was revealed when he opened his mouth.
She handed over a black sickle, which was also a prop collected by the film and television studio. It looked scary, but it was actually plastic and could not kill anyone.
