Jiang Cheng gave a faint smile and introduced, "Mr. Benjamin loves our Hua Xia culture, so we signed an order."

After she finished speaking, Manager Mu stepped forward.

He didn’t believe it in his heart, but his hands were processing the paperwork, and his mind was clearer than ever.

As the paperwork was being done swiftly, Jiang Cheng accompanied Mr. Benjamin and continued chatting.

They talked about Benjamin’s favorite topic—the cultural value of merchandise.

Benjamin knew that the items he bought had exceeded their original pricing, but he didn’t care.

In his eyes, these prices were still incredibly cheap.

After returning to his country, he would sell them to wealthy businessmen.

These items would multiply in value hundreds, or even thousands, of times.

"Jiang, you are an excellent salesperson."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Benjamin."

Jiang Cheng replied calmly, and it was exactly this calmness that put Benjamin in an even better mood.

This was a deal where both parties understood each other perfectly.

The paperwork was completed quickly, and it was only at this moment that Furniture Factory Manager Mu felt it was real.

After the sense of reality came immense joy, but he had to suppress it, not daring to show it.

Manager Mu looked at Jiang Cheng and Benjamin.

"Mr. Jiang, please translate for us to thank him and assure him that we will complete the order on time, with quality and quantity guaranteed."

Jiang Cheng translated truthfully, and Benjamin and Manager Mu shook hands, formally kicking off the order.

Manager Mu led the people from the furniture factory towards the booth, while Jiang Cheng remained by Benjamin’s side, along with Du Bin and Benjamin’s assistant.

"Mr. Benjamin, I wonder if your furniture business in your country involves sofas, cushions, or curtains?"

"Mainly furniture, including sofas. We generally provide cushions with the sofas."

Jiang Cheng nodded, sincerely.

The Benjamin in front of her was a competent businessman.

He wouldn’t squeeze suppliers to death but would provide mutual benefit for both parties, yet he couldn’t be easily fooled.

Only genuine benefits could move him.

"Mr. Benjamin, actually I would like to show you some fabrics that I believe would be perfect for making sofas."

Benjamin raised an eyebrow and straightforwardly said, "Jiang, I do have a great demand for fabrics, but I already have suppliers back home."

Jiang Cheng nodded understandingly and persistently asked, "Having a supplier doesn’t conflict with looking at my fabrics; I don’t intend to replace your supplier."

"You came all the way to Hua Xia, wouldn’t it be better to see more things?"

"There’s an old saying in Hua Xia, ’Since we’re already here, why not?’ isn’t there?"

Benjamin laughed heartily; he admired the young woman in front of him.

She had a certain resilience about her.

"Okay, I am willing to take a look."

"This way, please!"

Jiang Cheng made an inviting gesture and walked toward Su Changzhang’s fabric booth with Benjamin.

From a distance, Director Su saw Jiang Cheng leading two foreigners over.

"Quick, quick, quick! Look lively!"

"Jiang Cheng is here!"

Everyone at the booth stood up, almost forming two rows to welcome them, but they held back, fearing they might scare them away.

"Director Su, this is Mr. Benjamin, a furniture businessman, here to look at our fabrics." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Director Su proactively shook hands, feeling puzzled: Furniture?

Despite his doubts, Director Su didn’t dare say anything, just warmly hosted Benjamin.

Jiang Cheng then brought Benjamin to the coarser fabrics.

"This is the fabric I thought would be suitable for sofas."

"We call this coarse cloth; it’s of top quality, resistant to regular cuts, and if water spills on it, wiping it quickly won’t leave a trace."

Benjamin examined it closely.

Just as Jiang Cheng had said, the fabric before him was very suitable for making sofas.

"Jiang, I’ve already signed a contract with my supplier for this year."

In other words, buying it now would be too late.

Jiang Cheng still didn’t give up.

With bright eyes, she smiled and asked, "Mr. Benjamin, when you make a large profit, what do you do?"

"Expand production."

Benjamin immediately understood what Jiang Cheng meant.

He shook his head and laughed, "You have a lot of faith in me. Are you so sure that batch of furniture just now will earn me a profit?"

Jiang Cheng shook her head.

"It’s not my assurance; it’s yours."

This statement from Jiang Cheng made Benjamin laugh heartily.

"Jiang, you truly are a remarkable talent!"

"Thank you for your praise."

Jiang Cheng gracefully accepted Benjamin’s compliment, then invited him to sit by the nearby table and chairs, taking out paper and a pen.

"Mr. Benjamin, I know you are the most qualified businessman, willing to leave profit margins for both sides of a deal, something most businessmen cannot achieve."

"This is my pledge, my sincerity."

As she spoke, Jiang Cheng pushed a simple sketch of a sofa design in front of Benjamin.

Seeing it, Benjamin immediately visualized it in his mind, with different fabrics and patterns.

It was a completely new design.

"Jiang—you’ve moved me."

With those words from Benjamin, it indicated that the deal was already 90% successful.

What followed was the pricing discussion.

Facing Benjamin, who knew what was going on but was still willing to proceed, Jiang Cheng also chose to concede a bit.

Originally, she wanted to set the price at 1.6, but now she set it at 1.4.

Benjamin immediately placed an order for 200,000 meters of coarse fabric and bought some additional fabrics for making cushions.

Throughout the process, Director Su showed no expression while handling the paperwork.

Once everything was done, Jiang Cheng and Benjamin shook hands and exchanged contact information again.

After seeing off Benjamin, Jiang Cheng rubbed her temples.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Hearing "Mr. Jiang" startled Jiang Cheng.

"Director Su... what’s up?"

Su Changzhang, finally showing some expression, danced with excitement and looked at Jiang Cheng, saying, "I don’t even know why! I’m just happy! Extremely happy!"

Jiang Cheng laughed along, feeling happy too.

"Jiang Cheng, would you stay at our booth?"

Jiang Cheng looked at Director Su helplessly and said, "Director Su... Although I’m excellent, you have to give others a chance too."

"Even though they might not be as capable or outstanding as me, opportunities still need to be given."

"Don’t use my standards to judge others; it’s not fair to them."

Director Su thought: This topic switched as swiftly as a tornado, "blew" right in his face!

Jiang Cheng, feeling great about her self-praise, smiled lightly and said:

"I’ll go sign in, it’s already noon, they’re providing meals, right?"

Director Su stared at Jiang Cheng, waving casually: Is this the same composed Jiang Cheng from moments ago?

Du Bin, who had been following behind Jiang Cheng, looked around and saw no one else.

He hurriedly caught up with Jiang Cheng.

"Jiang Cheng!"

Without turning her head, Jiang Cheng said, "Talk."

"Were—were the things you just said true?"

Jiang Cheng confidently responded, "Of course they were true! How could you doubt the five thousand years of Hua Xia culture?"

Du Bin stumbled.

What does that have to do with this!!

Steadying himself, Du Bin earnestly said, "Honest people shouldn’t lie."

Jiang Cheng stopped, turned around.

"Lie?"

"Comrade Du Bin, think with your brain, this is a trade fair, ninety-nine out of a hundred businessmen are shrewd."

"Every word I say, if it doesn’t promise them more profit, do you think they’d keep listening?"

"And..."

Jiang Cheng stepped forward, lifted her chin, and spoke brightly.

"I lie for my country, and I’m proud of it!"
