出差在广州(8)
The negotiation lasted three days, during which I introduced my factory, put forward my ideas and persuaded local technicians and entrepreneurs that it would be a win-win cooperation between us, my professionalism and eloquence moved them, they not only treated me enthusiastically, but replied that they would deliberate my proposal. I used the extra two days to travel around the city and purchase local products for my family members, but this time, having learnt a lesson from the previous mah-jong experience, I dared only buy things from formal stores and dared not take a step closer to any stall or barrow. On the day I left, I gave a call to my superior telling him that nothing happened unexpectedly, people here are interested in your proposal, hitherto everything had got on a better track, and a call to my wife asking if everything is OK at home, then packed up my things and embarked on the train back to Nanjing.
