Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 384: When Winds and Clouds Converge

"Can you sell your machines?" Wolfgang asked in broken Hua Country language.

The others were somewhat confused and hadn’t yet understood what he was saying. Xu Qinghuan replied in Country D language, "Of course, we can sell them in large quantities. Do you want them?"

Upon hearing Xu Qinghuan’s accent, Wolfgang felt as if he had met a fellow countryman, "Certainly, how much do you sell these machines for per unit?"

He pointed at the threshing machine, "Can you sell it to us?"

Wolfgang was a salesperson from Hans Group, and he came to Hua Country this time just to see if there were any business opportunities. With the language barrier, he originally thought he was just here for some entertainment.

Xu Qinghuan had a pleasant conversation with him, and this beautiful Eastern girl made a deep impression on him.

"Using machines for farming is naturally more cost-effective than manual labor. Although the initial investment in machines is high, labor is a continuous expense. Otherwise, why does Eagle Country utilize textile machines extensively?"

"Xu, what you say is absolutely right; it’s a viewpoint I have always agreed with. Country D has similar machines, but transporting them over the strait is not easy. The waterways have high costs and the risk of rusting."

The sea is damp, and a three-month shipping cycle can’t allow funds to turn around quickly, which is a significant loss for merchants.

Under Xu Qinghuan’s persuasion, Wolfgang planned to sell the machines locally to neighboring India, which is currently still a member of the Eagle Federation, with a significant wealth disparity. Those wealthy upper-class individuals prefer to spend money on machines rather than hire dirty menial workers.

For Wolfgang, this was an excellent opportunity.

"How many machines do you plan to sell us then? We want both harvesters and threshing machines, can we start with two thousand units each?"

Xu Qinghuan smiled without speaking.

"Xu, what do you mean? Are you worried I won’t pay? Is this your first time at the Southern Trade Conference? We are very trustworthy merchants. If you doubt us, it’s a great hurt to me." Wolfgang made a sorrowful expression.

Jiang Xingye couldn’t understand his words, but instinctively felt that this man was flirting with his fiancée.

He stepped forward, wrapped his arm around Xu Qinghuan’s shoulder, his eagle-eyed gaze fixing on Wolfgang, emitting a chill.

Wolfgang was so intimidated he took a step back, almost feeling the Wolf King’s watchful gaze.

"This machine is three thousand US Dollars per unit; if two thousand units, that’s six million US Dollars. If you need them, we must sign an agreement. We need forty percent deposit before arranging production, and the remaining sixty percent must be received before shipping."

Wolfgang was taken aback, but Xu Qinghuan laughed, seeming not worried at all about the six million US Dollars possibly going down the drain, "I’m sorry, I don’t believe in trustworthiness, I, like your nation, only believe in contracts!"

Wolfgang, observing this beautiful girl’s calm demeanor, asked, "Is this factory yours? If it’s yours, I’m willing to pay a fifty percent deposit upfront."

Xu Qinghuan replied, "It’s not mine. Currently, all factories belong to this country. We don’t have private factories. Also, the deposit only needs to be forty percent. We treat everyone equally, without targeting any individual specifically."

"Xu, have you been to my country? Your Country D language is very good, with a slight accent from my hometown." Wolfgang noticed her frowning,

"Rest assured, I mean no harm. I haven’t been back to my homeland for a long time. Hearing you speak feels like standing on the streets of Berlin. I am willing to sign a contract with you all."

Standing in heels for a long time, Xu Qinghuan felt a bit tired. She leaned slightly back against Jiang Xingye and continued the delightful conversation with Wolfgang.

In the end, Xu Qinghuan tacitly found out more about this person’s background, learning he came just to explore Hua Country’s situation and scout for business opportunities.

Since there’s business to be done, he naturally doesn’t want to leave empty-handed.

This person is like a global trader, buying low and selling high. Perhaps the accent drew them closer. He told Xu Qinghuan that wealthy people in India are quite silly. Their country’s industry is backward, and they’re willing to pay high prices for seemingly sophisticated machinery.

Xu Qinghuan sold it to him at three thousand US Dollars per unit. He could turn around and sell them in India for five thousand pounds each, causing a frenzy.

Xu Qinghuan didn’t care if he caused a frenzy. She asked Qiao Xinyu to call the foreign trade bureau person to sign the first contract with Wolfgang under the name of Shangjiang Machinery Factory, with a total value of sixteen million US Dollars.

Three thousand US Dollars per unit for the threshing machine and five thousand US Dollars per unit for the harvester was Xu Qinghuan’s arbitrary pricing.

She calculated the cost roughly, indirectly inquired about the current price of a small car in the United States, then converted Hua Country Coin into US Dollars based on that.

At the current exchange rate of 7.2, one US Dollar equals 7.2 RMB.

A most ordinary hand-held tractor sells for about 3000 Hua Country Coin.

The foreign trade bureau staff were dumbfounded seeing Shangjiang Team’s quotation.

However, when they saw Wolfgang cheerfully signing the contract and handing over the deposit generously, they were all puzzled, wondering where this big fool came from, how Shangjiang Team managed to secure such a windfall.

A total transaction of sixteen million US Dollars suddenly made Shangjiang Team famous throughout the exhibition hall.

The Shen City Textile Factory people went to the foreign trade bureau to cry, "Last year, everything was agreed upon. We rushed production even through the Lunar New Year’s Eve without a break, hurriedly finishing these tasks, and now they say they don’t want them."

The foreign trade bureau can do nothing. The Southern Trade Conference, held for many years, has facilitated a lot of business, but Hua Country’s enterprises have also suffered. Every year there are people being deceived.

They desperately want to make money.

Not to mention, this kind of deal with Shangjiang Team, with over a million US Dollars per transaction, in Hua Country is a pinnacle business. A Shen City type of machinery factory can survive for ten years without doing anything.

This is just a gamble; if guessed right, everyone enjoys the success. If like Shen City Textile Factory which gambled wrong, they would go bankrupt.

"Is there any language barrier? Find someone who can communicate well with them since previously agreed and refused now. What about the fabric?" Gong Zhijie remarked. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Zhou Xinyan, following Chen Hongtao, felt guilty and lowered her head. She came along with the Shen City business delegation this time, having practiced language skills for half a year. Last October, she even interned for a period. Though not particularly fluent, ordinary conversations were within her grasp.

Chen Hongtao was helpless and had to take Zhou Xinyan along to find that United States bastard.

If murdering wasn’t illegal, he’d have killed that bastard long ago.

Xu Qinghuan was talking to Jiang Xingye, the two standing close and whispering, "With this order secured, we don’t need to rush in the future. Study well, I think maybe the college entrance examination will be brought forward;

For now, focus on studying. When policy changes come, we’ll have plenty of time to adapt."

Jiang Xingye didn’t speak, just squeezed her hand. He would surely hold the "Shangjiang" brand tightly in his hand. Today, this deal was negotiated by his fiancée, and in times of change, he’d firmly keep the factory under control.

When the storm unfolds, he surely will be the one to ride the trends.

Chen Hongtao and Zhou Xinyan arrived, seeing Xu Qinghuan negotiating business with those United States swindlers.

James said, "Beautiful lady, we want a thousand of each clothing style. Are you willing to sell? Prices are negotiable."
