Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

Chapter 187 Successfully Achieved Cooperation

Tan Lin initially opened the bag containing the samples with a disdainful look, but when she poured out all the samples, she froze on the spot.

"This...this is salted mushrooms, and dried mushrooms too?" The assistant next to her stared wide-eyed at the samples in front of her.

Everyone else brought fresh mushrooms, but this sample bag contained pre-processed mushrooms, which were even packaged separately.

Moreover, the quality of this sample is far superior to that of the previous ones.

The Gobi Desert receives little rainfall, so the mushrooms grown there were not significantly affected.

Moreover, Wenrou was planted according to Professor Peng's method, which is also the most suitable planting method for the Gobi Desert.

Moreover, this preservation method was taught by Professor Peng, so there should be almost no problems.

Tan Lin's face was also filled with shock. She never expected that the sample that woman brought would be of such high quality.

How did she manage to do that?

It's incredible that the goods can maintain such high quality despite the Gobi Desert being so far away from here.

Although she did have a lot of resentment towards that woman because of Huo Yanchuan and her childhood memories.

But she couldn't deny that the quality of this sample bag was indeed the highest among all the samples collected today.

"Manager Tan, these samples fully meet our acceptance standards, but... what should we do?" the assistant said excitedly and anxiously.

Their manager rejected the sample without even inspecting it. Are we supposed to go back and confront them now?

If we don't go back to look for them, they won't be able to collect the goods again, and then we won't be able to explain it to our superiors.

Now it depends on whether Manager Tan can swallow his pride and go back to invite those two people back.

"Where are those two people from earlier?" Tan Lin asked, frowning.

The assistant shook her head. "It seems... they went back?"

"Go and have people search for them. We must find them." Tan Lin didn't care about anything else now; her face turned extremely pale.

If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have eliminated them first.

Seeing the sample bags on the chair, Tan Lin frowned even more deeply.

So that woman knew all along that she would regret sending someone to them, which is why she deliberately left the samples behind?

Thinking of this, Tan Lin couldn't help but sneer. She had really underestimated her.

So many years have passed, how come Shen Qingshuang has changed so much?

I originally thought she was just a pretty face, but I didn't expect her to be so resourceful.

Upon hearing Tan Lin's words, the assistant hurriedly sent someone to find Wenrou.

After lunch, Wenrou went back to the car and had a nice nap.

Xiao Lin and the others couldn't sleep, so they got off the bus anxiously to think of a solution.

They didn't know if Wenrou was genuinely resourceful or just incredibly carefree, managing to fall asleep at a time like this.

They waited outside for two hours, while Wenrou slept in the car for two hours.

Just then, Tan Lin's assistant and her team finally found Xiao Lin.

"Comrades, thankfully you haven't left yet. Our Manager Tan wants to see you. Please come back with me again." The assistant recognized Xiao Lin, knowing that he had come with Wenrou earlier.

Xiao Lin was also taken aback when she heard that Tan Lin wanted to see them.

Then, remembering that Wenrou was still sleeping in the car, he hurriedly ran over and woke her up.

"Sister-in-law, Manager Tan wants to see us again. She asked her assistant to invite us over now." Xiao Lin was very excited. He never expected that things would take a turn for the better.

No wonder Wenrou wasn't in a hurry at all; she had already calculated that Manager Tan would definitely ask them to go back.

Wenrou had previously asked him to put the sample bag on the chair, but it seems that the people from the state-owned foreign trade company saw the quality of their samples and changed their minds, wanting to cooperate with them again.

Xiao Lin was waiting for Wenrou to get out of the car and go inside with him, but unexpectedly Wenrou turned over and continued to prepare to sleep.

"Tell Tan Lin's assistant to come and talk to me herself, otherwise this cooperation will be canceled."

It was clearly Tan Lin herself who rejected them without even looking at their samples at the beginning.

Now you think you can just hire a junior assistant and ask them to go back? It's not that easy.

Xiao Lin was taken aback. Although he was even more anxious than Wen Rou, he could only do as she asked.

This was also his first time learning how to do business with Wenrou, and he knew nothing about it.

If it were him, he would definitely have gone with the assistant when she invited them.

But he didn't expect that Wenrou could be so calm.

Xiaolin couldn't understand it either. Wasn't she afraid that the other party might change their mind? If they put on airs like this and the other party went back on their word and didn't want to cooperate with them anymore, wouldn't that be a loss?

However, he didn't dare question Wenrou's decision, so he could only bite the bullet and repeat Wenrou's exact words to his assistant.

Upon hearing this, the assistant's expression changed. She hadn't expected the other party to dare to put on airs.

In the past, she definitely wouldn't have even glanced at them, but things are different now. If they don't receive the goods, they can't fulfill their obligations.

The assistant could only go back and tell Tan Lin what she had said.

"She really said that?" Tan Lin was even more surprised when she heard that.

The other party was clearly prepared; otherwise, they wouldn't have been so confident.

She retracted her previous prejudice against Shen Qingshuang. As long as there was no problem with the goods, what did it matter if she went there herself?

"Let's go take a look." After saying that, Tan Lin took her assistant and went out to talk to Wenrou about the cooperation.

When Xiao Lin saw that Manager Tan had actually come to invite them in person, he stared in shock, and then quickly took them to find Wenrou.

It was only then that Tan Lin and the others realized that Wenrou had actually arrived in a truck, or rather, two trucks, both loaded with goods they had transported from the Gobi Desert.

"This...they actually have trucks?" The assistant was also seeing trucks used for transportation for the first time.

Those people were villagers from the nearby countryside, and they used tricycles or tractors to transport goods.

They were the first to transport this by truck.

Wenrou heard the sound and opened the truck door. She then easily jumped off the truck, supporting herself with one hand on the handle next to the door.

"Manager Tan, can we have a proper discussion about cooperation this time?" Wenrou smiled gently at her.

However, she did not expect that Tan Lin would actually put aside her pride and take the initiative to come and talk to her about cooperation.

"I'm sorry, I take back what I said before. I shouldn't have held a grudge against you. If possible, let's renegotiate our cooperation." Tan Lin was also flexible and adaptable. At this moment, the cold arrogance on her gentle face was gone, replaced by genuine sincerity.

"I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration." Seeing her sincerity, Wenrou naturally agreed more readily.

So she took Xiaolin and followed Tan Lin and the others back into the state-owned foreign trade company. This time, Tan Lin invited them directly into her office and poured each of them a cup of hot tea.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Tan Lin, the deputy manager of the state-owned foreign trade company. My job is to purchase and select samples. What I said before was not because I had any prejudice against you, but in my experience, goods that can be transported from such a far place as the Gobi Desert are likely to be qualified."

Tan Lin reintroduced herself to Wenrou and explained things to her again.

Wenrou nodded gently and introduced herself, "My name is Wenrou, and I come from the Gobi Desert. You should have seen our samples. You can rest assured about the quality. Professor Peng from the National Agricultural Research Institute personally guided us in our planting techniques, and we also took special measures during transportation to ensure that the samples would not be contaminated or have any quality problems."

"Gentle?" Tan Lin was stunned when she heard Wenrou say that.

Has she mistaken someone for someone else? Isn't the person in front of her Shen Qingshuang?

No wonder she felt this woman was completely different from the Shen Qingshuang she had met before; she was confident and composed, possessed a unique arrogance, and most importantly, was intelligent.

This woman is much better than Shen Qingshuang, that pretty face. No wonder Huo Yanchuan is willing to bend over backwards for her.

"You must be Huo Yanchuan's lover? You are indeed very outstanding and a perfect match for him." Now that she knew the other person was not Shen Qingshuang, Tan Lin's attitude towards Wenrou changed considerably.

Seeing her reaction, Wenrou became even more puzzled.

"You know me?"

Tan Lin looked at her and said, "I thought he would marry Shen Qingshuang, after all, their families were engaged before."

Hearing her say that, Wenrou finally understood.

"So the reason you chose to eliminate us first was because you mistook me for Shen Qingshuang."

Seeing that Wenrou had guessed it so quickly, Tan Lin said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's my fault."

After talking about Huo Yanchuan, the two finally began to discuss their formal cooperation.

"The samples you provided are of excellent quality, and our organization is currently looking to support distinctive sideline businesses in remote areas. We can consider cooperating," Tan Lin said to Wenrou.

Furthermore, with the support of the military behind her gentle demeanor, they had no reason to refuse to cooperate.

"In that case, I wish us a pleasant collaboration." Wenrou hadn't expected the collaboration to be achieved so smoothly.

"I wonder how much cargo you've prepared this time?" Tan Lin took the documents from her assistant and asked Wenrou.

"There are about 1,500 kilograms of dried mushrooms and more than 600 kilograms of salted mushrooms," Wenrou said gently.

After she finished speaking, she saw that Tan Lin and her assistant were both shocked. It was the first time they had ever seen so many goods.

However, they were also worried about not being able to collect the goods this time. Now that Wenrou has the goods, their urgent problem has finally been solved.

Tan Lin was also very excited at this moment, and she told Wen Rou about the price.

"Here, dried shiitake mushrooms are priced at a uniform three yuan per jin (500g), and salted mushrooms are fifty cents per jin. Can you accept these prices?"

Wenrou had inquired about the price before coming, and although it was similar to what Tan Lin had said, their product quality was definitely the best among this batch.

Moreover, the price Tan Lin offered was the lowest on the market at the moment, so of course she couldn't accept it.

Wenrou shook her head gently and said with a smile, "Manager Tan has also seen the quality of our products. If it's this price, then we're afraid we can only apologize."

Tan Lin hadn't expected Wenrou to come prepared. The price was already high enough for others, but it still wasn't satisfactory for Wenrou.

After all, this year's mushroom production was affected by rainfall, while the Gobi Desert was not affected at all, and the quality of the products it could provide was much better than they had imagined.

"How about this, dried mushrooms are four yuan per pound, and salted mushrooms are six mao per pound. If you agree to this price, I can sign a contract immediately and guarantee long-term cooperation, and the quality of the mushrooms will be the same as this time." Wenrou expressed her sincerity at this moment.

The price she mentioned was just average; it wasn't too high.

Moreover, she was confident that Tan Lin would agree.

"I need to discuss this with my superiors. Could you please give me some time?" Tan Lin didn't rush to agree. Instead, she had her assistant attend to Wenrou first, and then she left the office.

Wenrou reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, taking a sip of tea without any sign of urgency on her face.

At this moment, Xiao Lin, who was sitting next to her, was so shocked that he couldn't speak. In his entire life, apart from Huo Yanchuan, he had never admired anyone so much.

Her gentleness today truly impressed him to the point of complete admiration. Her confident and commanding demeanor was simply too dashing.

He admired her most for being able to make everything go according to her plan.

Even when he was tempted to agree to the price after Manager Tan mentioned it during the cooperation discussion, Wenrou managed to remain calm and continue to raise the price.

Seeing her calm and composed demeanor, Xiao Lin finally understood why Battalion Commander Hao trusted Wenrou so much and was even willing to follow her wholeheartedly.

At this moment, Xiaolin looked at Wenrou with eyes full of admiration. He had a premonition that he would definitely get rich by following Wenrou, and he would get very rich.

"Sister-in-law, you're amazing!" Xiao Lin gave Wenrou a thumbs up and praised her softly.

She looked at him gently and asked, "You'd better learn from me carefully. From now on, I'll be in charge of negotiating business with you."

To do business, you need a business prodigy like Kobayashi. Once he's become more skilled, this business can be completely handed over to him.

Upon hearing this, Xiaolin nodded excitedly, "I will definitely study hard."

Soon, Tan Lin came in again.

"We can agree to the price you just mentioned. If there are no problems, we can sign the contract now." Tan Lin handed the contract to Wenrou and then reached out to her.

"I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration in the future."

Wenrou smiled and reached out to hold Tan Lin's hand, saying, "Definitely."

After signing the contract, Wenrou and Tan Lin became acquainted despite their initial misunderstanding.

After the two finished discussing business, Tan Lin genuinely liked Wen Rou's personality.

"Gentle girl, you're not in a hurry to leave today, are you?" She was a little older than Gentle and called out to her.
