"You guys are just enjoying the novelty of it, but if you eat it for too long, you’ll get tired of it too." He Zhilan, being praised, felt a bit embarrassed. She touched her nose and changed the subject, asking Lin Chan, "I heard from Bian Xiulin that you’ve been quite busy lately? What are you busy with? You seemed busy since National Day."
He Zhilan was just asking casually, but she didn’t expect Lin Chan to answer so seriously.
"I negotiated two deals while out enjoying National Day, remember I set up a foreign trade company? Now there are two major businesses, one is fabric, the other is electronics, both are import businesses. I’ve always cooperated with a century-old company in R Country for the fabric, but recently, this company is acting a bit strange."
"What kind of weirdness? Weren’t you sending your secretary to R Country to check on the situation the other day?" Bian Muhe glanced at Lin Chan, "Why do I hear that Chen Yun says you’re planning to go over yourself? Is it necessary for the big boss to personally go just for some fabric? Wouldn’t it be fine to follow the usual process?"
"If everything were usual, nobody would need to go abroad, but this time it’s different." Lin Chan straightforwardly put down her chopsticks and started talking about her company, "This time the other company has given a huge discount, half of the previous price, but demanded a large amount of goods. I’m not afraid of overstocking, or not being able to afford the investment, it’s just that this price made me suspicious because it was so cheap. In the past, even a small concession was like asking for their life."
"Lin Chan, you’re really funny, you used to privately curse at them for not giving you a discount, and now that they’re finally showing some mercy by giving you a discount, you suspect them? Bian Muhe, Zhilan, what do you two think? Isn’t it hard to get along with Lin Chan?" Bian Xiulin laughed when she saw Lin Chan was worried about this.
"What do you know besides eating?" Lin Chan glanced at Bian Xiulin, then showed her teeth in irritation, "Laugh, laugh, laugh, just look at your silly face."
"Who are you calling silly! Even if I am silly, after I marry Xing Ye, you’ll have to respectfully call me sister-in-law!"
"Riding a man to the top! Shameless!" Lin Chan gritted her teeth.
"If you can, why don’t you find a man to ride to the top too!" Bian Xiulin was slightly proud of this point, after all, her fiancé was the big brother in their group.
"Alright, alright, where did we go off to, we were originally talking about Lin Chan’s business." Bian Muhe also admired the abilities of Lin Chan and Bian Xiulin to turn a serious conversation into a banter.
He Zhilan understood Lin Chan’s worries clearly, "It’s like a miser suddenly plucking out his feathers, a normal person would worry, especially this kind of century-old enterprises with a fixed customer base. They’re not a new company, so they don’t need to worry about their products not selling and having to start by lowering the price as the first step to open the market. Unless they’ve massively overproduced this quarter and the supply severely exceeds market demand, but how could a century-old company make such a basic mistake?"
"Zhilan is the smart one! That’s exactly what I was worried about." Lin Chan excitedly slapped the table, "At first, I thought they had acquired another company and were clearing the backlog of goods at a low price. If that were the case, it would certainly be of different quality than the fabric produced by their own company, hence, I asked to see the fabric first and sent my secretary over. But the secretary said that it was the company’s own production and not acquired externally, which made me even more depressed!"
