I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

"Haha, I'm investigating...investigating...I've also dealt with your mainland bosses. People over there often exaggerate when doing business. If they have 10,000 yuan in their pocket, they can pretend they have a million. It's really difficult to find a good partner." Peng Lang recalled his previous dealings with mainland bosses.

Once a boss proposed to cooperate with him and took him to the mainland to look at the site. At first, Peng Lang was very satisfied. The boss pointed to several vacant lots and said that they were his land and he could build a factory. But it turned out that the land was not his at all, and he was just a shell boss who wanted Peng Lang to get on board first.

"Of course when looking for a partner, we have to look for a large and powerful company. The person sitting in front of you is the eldest son of Huade. Uncle, you must have heard of Huade." Zhao Lingshan raised the bottle of wine and clinked it with Peng Lang in a heroic manner.

"Oh? Didn't he say before that he was from Xinde? I have never heard of that brand, but I know Huade." Peng Lang raised his eyelids and looked at Chen Xi again.

"It used to be a brand under my family. Now it has been separated from Huade, and I run it on my own." Chen Xi explained.

"It's interesting, but our products don't have much connection. You said before that you had cooperation with Huajing Electronics, what's going on?"

"Well..."

Chen Xi smiled and started bragging mode.

"My friend, I have something urgent to do and I have to hurry back. Let's talk again when we have a chance." Half an hour later, Peng Lang received a call and nodded to Chen Xi apologetically.

The two exchanged contact information, and Peng Lang left the restaurant in a hurry. Before leaving, he even helped them settle the bill.

"This uncle is quite interesting. He just kept talking to you about all sorts of random things." After Peng Lang left, Zhao Lingshan leaned on him and said.

"Well, don't think it's some mess. This guy is very smart. He keeps asking me about some trivial things, but they are all related to business. It will be useful for him if he puts them together." Chen Xi burped and picked up another piece of cake and put it into his mouth.

"Which one is better, Youda Optoelectronics or Huajing Electronics?"

"It must be Youda. In terms of financial status, Huajing Electronics cannot be compared with Youda at all, because it has been losing money for many years, while Youda has been profitable. Technically speaking, Huajing Electronics has just mastered independent technology through technological innovation and is on the same platform as international competitors. Youda Electronics has always been among the top few in the world. But it may not be the case in the future. With the strong support of Xinlu, Huajing Electronics will sooner or later surpass the other party. This is why Peng Lang chose to invest in the mainland. Not only him, but many Taiwanese companies now want to invest in the mainland..."

"I saw you chatting with him so happily, and I thought you wanted to cooperate with him, but after talking for a long time, I didn't see you bring up the idea of ​​cooperation."

"A product is made up of multiple parts, which involve many different companies. Do you see that things are getting cheaper and cheaper now? Do you know why? One of the reasons is that many bosses have started to play with the supply chain. If you want to lower the price of the product and make consumers pay for it, you have to start with the purchase of various parts. It doesn't hurt to get to know one more boss, because it will be useful sooner or later..."

“This seems to be similar to our catering.”

"Yes."

Zhao Lingshan reacted quickly.

In a corner of the hotel.

"Zhijie, what are you looking at? Oh~ You are looking at a woman. She has a boyfriend, why are you still staring at her?" A dark-skinned man patted the young man next to him, followed his gaze, and fixed his eyes on Zhao Lingshan in the distance.

The young man next to him narrowed his eyes and stared straight ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Hey, Zhijie, you haven't had enough fun outside. If you want girls, I'll take you out to have fun later." A man wearing a turban and a leather jacket smiled and took a bite of food.

"You guys eat, I'm going to go out and make a phone call." The young man who was teased by several people stood up expressionlessly and walked towards the back door silently.

"Wow, I guessed wrong. How could it be toast?" Zhao Lingshan looked at the dish in front of her with a bitter face and complained.

This is a dish called coffin board, which is made by deep-frying thick toast, hollowing it out, filling it with milk batter, chicken, potatoes, green beans, shrimp, and squid, and covering the hollowed-out bread crust. It is similar to salad bread in Western cuisine. Because diners jokingly said that its shape resembles a coffin, the owner named it coffin board, a name that has a rather scary atmosphere.

"Why do you always order weird food?" Chen Xi also had some complaints about this dish.

"I like to order dishes I've never seen before wherever I go. If they taste good, I'll write them down and ask the chef at my hotel to try to make them."

"After all this time, it turns out you've been treating me as a guinea pig."

"Hehe, Xiao Xizi, come and test the poison for me." Zhao Lingshan pushed the coffin in front of Chen Xi and made a gesture of invitation.

"嗻~"

Chen Xi pinched his throat and shouted.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the two men, full of food and drink, staggered out of the dimly lit restaurant.

At this moment, I am in a bustling food street. Although night falls, the popularity here has not diminished at all. The bustling crowd is filled with the atmosphere of life.

Compared with the prosperous scenes of those modern cities in mainland China, this place in Monga is a bit like the old town areas in other places.

It is surrounded by low old buildings that bear the marks of time, and only in the center are there a few iconic high-rise buildings.

"Let's go to the night market." After eating, Zhao Lingshan suggested having fun.

"Haha, will you let me go to discuss business tomorrow?"

"What time is it now? Why are you going back to the hotel so early? Have you figured it out? It's so sudden, I'm not prepared." Zhao Lingshan first gave him a wicked smile, then kept knocking her two index fingers against each other, lowered her head, with an embarrassed expression on her face.

"Okay, okay, I'm convinced by you. Let's go for a walk."

"Hehe, I thought you were just drunk and emboldened, but it seems you are not drunk."

"I'm a coward. Humph. I'm just afraid that you'll cry and beg for mercy."

"Tsk, I heard that doing that is very comfortable, why would you beg for mercy?"

"Hehe, your mind is full of these things after drinking. Let's go." Chen Xi put his arms around her slender waist and walked forward.

Little did he know that there was a young man following him secretly.

Next to the food street is a night market with stalls selling claw machines, ring tosses, and small jewelry.

"It doesn't seem to be any different from Xinlu. Look, these jewelry are probably made in mainland China." Zhao Lingshan looked around and stopped in front of a jewelry stall. She picked up a bracelet and took a look at it.

"It was most likely caused by Wushang." Chen Xi also echoed.

"No, no, these are all imported from the Land of Sakura. They are all the latest styles." The boss was a 30-year-old woman. After hearing what the two said, she began to defend her products.

"It's imported from Sakura Country. Doesn't that mean it has to go through two places? It's first shipped from the mainland to Sakura Country, and then shipped here..."

"Little girl, you are really good at bargaining, so stop talking. I'll give you a 30% discount, and it'll be one thousand Benxi coins." The proprietress was overwhelmed by her, so she made a gesture with a painful expression on her face, as if she had suffered a great loss.

"Ah? A 30% discount for a thousand bend coins? A thousand bend coins equals to 200 Chinese dollars. This thing probably only costs a few dollars in Wushang. No, a serving of sausage wrapped in large intestine is 50 bend coins. This bracelet of yours can buy 20 servings of sausage wrapped in large intestine. One serving of sausage wrapped in small intestine can probably buy several bracelets like this in Wushang..."

"Okay, okay, you're awesome. Just take whatever you said." The proprietress waved her hand to stop her from continuing because other customers had already arrived.

A few minutes later, Zhao Lingshan looked at her newly bought jewelry happily and kept showing off her achievements to Chen Xi. "It's just such a small amount of money, and you're still bargaining with her, is it that serious?" Chen Xi was a little confused about women.

A wealthy woman like Zhao Lingshan, who spends hundreds of thousands on a bag, actually cares about a few hundred yuan.

"Humph, you don't understand. Bargaining is fun. Buying cheap things will make you feel different. Besides, she still made several times the money, so it's not a loss. It's just that I don't want to be a sucker. It would be fine if I didn't know the real price of this thing, but compared to the mainland, if I bought it at the original price, I would probably be in a bad mood for the whole day..."

Listening to Zhao Lingshan's explanation, Chen Xi shook his head helplessly.

The two walked to a game booth. Zhao Lingshan pulled him and pointed to a few pairs of men and women, and then pointed to the prizes above. Chen Xi immediately understood what she meant. She wanted to play tomorrow.

This is a bouncy ball game. There are several fixed glass cups on the table. Players need to use bouncy balls to knock on the table to move the ball. When the ball falls into the cup, it accumulates one point, and finally the points can be exchanged for prizes.

"It seems like it's all about luck." Zhao Lingshan stood there and observed for a while before concluding.

Similar to other games, prizes around 1-2 points are worthless trinkets, and prizes above 8 points are considered good.

There are ten balls and a dozen cups in total, and the chance of getting 10 points is almost zero.

The prize for 10 points is cash - Bencoins, which is quite attractive.

Most of the players are young people, some are even children, while the boss stands by with a smile, picking up the fallen bouncy balls.

Chen Xi looked at the boss's expression and knew that this guy must have made a lot of money.

The table looks flat, but the bouncy balls fly in all directions at different angles. This must have been designed in advance.

But the purpose of going out to play is to have fun. How could Zhao Lingshan not know that there was something wrong with this game?

"Haha, I hit five in the first round. It doesn't look that difficult." Zhao Lingshan paid the money, took twenty balls and started playing.

She was really lucky and got five points right away, which stunned the young couples around her.

The boss looked normal and still smiling, because he was not worried at all that anyone would win the grand prize. No one had been able to score ten goals since he set up the stall.

The table tops were carefully designed by him. If you look carefully under the light, you can find that the table tops are not flat, especially on the tables in the middle with the most players, where there are more bumps and depressions.

Sure enough, after playing a few games, Zhao Lingshan's score was getting lower and lower, and she was only lucky at the beginning. Chen Xi was slightly better, with the highest score being 7.

But the prizes above eight points are worth seeing; seven points only give you a racing car assembly model.

"It's not fun. Let's go play something else." Zhao Lingshan threw all the balls she had bought in one breath. Then she pouted and made a face at her boss who had his back to her.

"Okay." Chen Xi prepared to throw the ball in his hand and leave.

But the first few attempts were good and he scored seven, which made him confident.

"Wow, another one." When she saw the eighth ball go into the cup, Zhao Lingshan jumped up excitedly.

At this time, the boss's face changed, but when he thought about the fact that the two of them had already spent so much money, it would still be profitable to let the other party take a small prize, so he returned to his smiling expression.

"boom."

At the moment when Chen Xi threw the ninth ball, a spring ball suddenly broke into the table. It bounced suddenly and its trajectory was directly towards the target in the air, almost causing a collision. But fortunately, the ball finally fell into the quilt.

This scene made the two of them look to the side.

I saw a young man with dyed white hair, earrings and a leather jacket, playing with the ball in his hand with a sly smile.

Noticing the displeased looks from the two men, the young man not only did not restrain himself in the slightest, but instead saluted them with two fingers together, an action that was clearly looking for trouble.

"What are you doing? Are you drunk?" Zhao Lingshan folded her arms and looked at the other person.

"I didn't mean to do that. Why are you so excited? The bouncy ball fell on the table and I can't control where it bounces to." Baimao chewed gum and shrugged.

"Boss, how do we deal with this kind of troublemaker? How can I play with him? If he touches my ball, whose ball will it be?" Chen Xi threw the question to a middle-aged man who was watching the fun on the side.

"The ball bounces irregularly and no one can control it. I only see if the ball falls into the cup in the end. I don't care about other things." The middle-aged man crossed his arms and stood completely on the side of the white-haired man.

"How do you do business like this?" Zhao Lingshan raised her voice, and more people gathered around to watch the fun.

"Are you still going to play or not? If not, let others play and don't delay my business." The boss made a gesture as if he was going to chase the person away.

"Fuck." Chen Xi lost interest in playing and threw the ball in his hand onto the table while cursing.

Seeing the other party's move, Baimao also threw two balls, one of which bounced on the table and collided with Chen Xi's elastic ball. Chen Xi's ball changed direction instantly and bounced to the left, hitting the wooden board next to it, and bounced back, hitting the table again, then bounced a few times and landed steadily in the cup.

"Hehe, thank you so much, little white-haired brother." Zhao Lingshan laughed so hard after seeing the result, and quickly thanked the person who was making trouble next to her.

The boss's face turned red. He threw the cigarette out of his mouth and stomped on the ground a few times.

"That's what you just said. You just need to see whether the ball falls into the cup. Okay, give me the grand prize." Chen Xi stretched out his hand with a smile.

"I……"

"There are so many people here. Boss, you don't want to do a one-time business, do you?" Chen Xi reminded again.

More and more people gathered around to watch the fun, and some even helped Chen Xi and the others celebrate.

The boss had no choice but to admit defeat. He glared at the two of them and took out a stack of bills from his wallet.

"I...Okay, okay..." Baimao was also dumbfounded. He threw the ball in his hand and kept waving his hands in the air, as if to say: You just wait.

"Yeah!" After seeing the boss give the money obediently, Zhao Lingshan excitedly stood on tiptoe, hugged Chen Xi's neck, and kissed him on the face.

“I didn’t expect these two mainlanders to be so lucky.”

"Welcome to the Bend Area."

"Hehe, I originally thought that people from the mainland dressed in a rustic way, but it turns out they are more fashionable than us. It seems that the TV news is all lies."

"Some people say they can't afford instant noodles, but look at the brand names they're wearing..."

The spectators around were discussing the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of them with great interest. (End of this chapter)
