Although Samuel is lecherous, one has to admit that he is a qualified businessman.

Since he saw what he wanted, naturally he had to inquire about the price.

Jiang Cheng represented the gemstone factory in full authority and personally negotiated with Samuel.

Samuel was really tempted when he heard the price Jiang Cheng offered.

There are quite a few jade gemstone merchants over there in MD, but the merchants there are not very trustworthy.

After some consideration, plus Jiang Cheng’s honest selling style which really met his expectations, Samuel finally decided to place an order.

The jade fragments piling up in the factory were sold by Jiang Cheng at a price of 180,000 per ton, totaling three tons.

Additionally, other small gems in the showcase were sold at a good price.

In total, the gemstone factory completed an order of 870,000.

The factory director was so stunned by this number that his legs went weak; if not for someone supporting him, he would have truly knelt down.

After the agreement was settled, Jiang Cheng called Hua Ying over.

"Mr. Samuel, Hua Ying will handle the formalities for you."

Hua Ying looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise, seeing only a faint smile from Jiang Cheng, as warm as the spring sun.

"This is originally your order."

After saying this, Jiang Cheng nodded to Samuel, ready to say goodbye.

At that moment, Samuel saw another side of Jiang Cheng, which made him very interested in her.

"Jiang, you are the most special Hua Xia woman I’ve ever met, you are outstanding."

Seeing that Samuel was not using a lecherous gaze for once, Jiang Cheng replied half-sincerely, "When you take off the colored glasses, you’ll find there’s much more to the world."

The double entendre made Samuel laugh again.

He didn’t mind Jiang Cheng’s teasing and even found it quite amusing.

"Jiang, I truly want to make friends with you, I wonder if I have the honor."

"Of course, next time you come to Hua Xia, my husband and I will invite you to dinner."

Samuel opened his mouth wide, frowned and asked Jiang Cheng, "You’re married?"

Jiang Cheng nodded.

Engagement is about the same as marriage.

Samuel truly felt regret and confusion, plus a bit of apology. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Sorry, I didn’t know you were a married lady, I never flirt with married people, it’s my fault."

After hearing this, Jiang Cheng thought to herself: This is a scoundrel with moral boundaries.

"It’s okay, I didn’t make it clear."

Jiang Cheng’s generosity made Samuel really enjoy chatting with her.

As they continued chatting behind, Hua Ying and the factory director led the way ahead, and the group reached the place for signing foreign trade contracts.

The whole process was communicated by Hua Ying, while Jiang Cheng stayed in the background.

At the moment the contract was signed, Hua Ying suddenly said, "It was Jiang Cheng who negotiated it, I was just helping with the formalities."

The staff handling the contract looked up and followed Hua Ying’s finger pointing to see Jiang Cheng hiding in the back.

"I understand, it will be recorded."

The staff’s words made Hua Ying relax and nod.

Although this order would bring better career advancement for her, she always felt something wasn’t right.

What’s not hers should not be taken nicely.

Most importantly, she wants to know Jiang Cheng.

In Hua Ying’s view, Jiang Cheng is more important than all this.

With the contract signed, Samuel hadn’t had enough of chatting.

He felt a very peculiar emotion towards Jiang Cheng.

If Jiang Cheng had to explain, it would probably be the safest friend for the playboys.

"Jiang, can I chat with you more?"

Jiang Cheng didn’t answer right away, but Samuel jumped in and said, "I also know other jewelry merchants, can I introduce them to you?"

"I can also tell you about the kinds of products they prefer."

Jiang Cheng, hearing this for the first time, extended her hand.

"Mr. Samuel, others are secondary, what’s important is I enjoy chatting with you."

Samuel: He discovered another side of Jiang Cheng.

Although Samuel knew what Jiang Cheng said was not true, he grew fonder of this cheekier Jiang Cheng.

When chatting with Jiang Cheng, Samuel felt an equal sense of security.

She wouldn’t judge you on your performance, nor make predictions based on your actions, nor scrutinize you with preconceived notions.

In short, Samuel felt relaxed.

Jiang Cheng kept her promise and accompanied Samuel to chat.

Samuel also kept his promise, introducing two jewelry merchants to Jiang Cheng.

One wanted pearls, the other wanted jade.

With Samuel’s insider information, Jiang Cheng smoothly helped the pearl manufacturer and jade manufacturer clear out a batch of stock.

After the two jewelry merchants signed the contract, Samuel found Jiang Cheng, excited like a child.

"Jiang... so this is how it feels to sell successfully! It’s really addicting."

Jiang Cheng: You’re addicted to conning people, aren’t you?

Jiang Cheng looked at Samuel openly and said, "Samuel, have you forgotten you’re a businessman? You regularly sell things."

Samuel waved his hand.

"That’s different, I never personally sold anything, it’s just that others tell me a sales number, without a sense of accomplishment."

Jiang Cheng rolled her eyes broadly.

"Please hit me hard with cold numbers, I love it!"

Samuel was once again amused by Jiang Cheng’s words.

"Jiang, you’re truly hilarious! I really want to bring you back to Country F."

Jiang Cheng backed away several steps with disdain, coldly rejecting, "Thanks for the offer, but no way."

"What does ’no way’ mean?"

Samuel chased after her question, Jiang Cheng explained, "I’d rather die than go."

"Why? Country F is great! We’re the city of romance!"

"We invented high heels! Invented perfumes!"

Samuel looked seriously at Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng mercilessly replied, "High heels were invented because during the dark Middle Ages, the entire country was filled with waste, flat shoes couldn’t walk the roads."

"As for perfume, do I still need to explain?"

Samuel’s mouth opened then closed, finally looking at Jiang Cheng and murmured wistfully, "It seems when finding a girlfriend, really can’t choose one smarter than me."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng comforted, "Don’t worry Samuel, that’s not difficult for you."

"Really?"

Samuel had just asked when he realized.

"Jiang, you are saying I’m dumb!"

Jiang Cheng listened, reflected with self-criticism, "I was wrong, given your reaction speed, it still has a bit of difficulty."

Samuel laughed out loud again.

The day ended with Samuel’s laughter.

Jiang Cheng and Samuel still exchanged contact information, Samuel kept emphasizing that he would mail gifts and letters to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng did not refuse.

A person like Samuel isn’t suitable as a husband but makes a good friend.

The second day of the trade fair ended, Jiang Cheng completed the registration, said goodbye to everyone, then found George and the other two outside.

The four of them took a car back together.

Jiang Cheng got off the bus, hadn’t walked a few steps before she heard someone calling her.

"Mr. Jiang! Ms. Jiang Cheng!"

Jiang Cheng followed the sound, scanning towards the post office across the street.

"Jiang Cheng, there’s a call for you!"

Jiang Cheng immediately waved back.

"Mr. Xu Xiuying, I’m coming right over."

Saying this, Jiang Cheng ran over, smoothly pulling out a handful of candies from her pocket, and handed it to Mr. Xu.

"Here, sweeten your lips."

Xu Xiuying couldn’t refuse Jiang Cheng, so she accepted it, though she tactfully stepped aside, leaving Jiang Cheng alone to make the call.

Jiang Cheng looked at the information Mr. Xu recorded; it’s not Shen Que, it should be a local number.

She dialed back, the phone rang with a buzz.

"Hello——this is Jiang Cheng——"
