Transmigrating into a Book in the 80s: After Giving Up, I Was Pampered by a Rough Man

Su Tai immediately looked at her, her face showing a thoughtful expression.

"Since there are already collector's editions of Oriental Truffles, perhaps today's Golden Thread Nourishing Dew will also bring a special surprise."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the ladies nearby immediately lit up.

"Stop arguing."

Mrs. He gently pressed down on the small wooden box in her hand.

"When we're registering later, everyone please hurry up."

On stage, Jiang Mian gently raised her hand to the staff, and the second round of tasting trays was quickly brought to the front row.

Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Mrs. He, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Chen, along with several other distinguished guests, all received tasting trays containing small samples.

These people were already regular customers of Oriental Truffle, but after taking a bite today, everyone's reaction was surprisingly consistent.

They were silent for a few seconds, then simultaneously raised their heads.

He Sheng put down the silver spoon and his gaze fell directly on Qian Weimin.

"Boss Qian."

Qian Weimin's heart skipped a beat.

He knew the main event was about to begin.

How much for this batch of goods?

Qian Weimin dared not give a random answer and immediately turned to Jiang Mian for help.

Jiang Mian held the microphone, her tone very relaxed.

"This batch tonight is not for sale to the public."

A suppressed sigh of regret immediately rose from the audience.

Young Master Huang couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"That's too cruel! They only let us taste it, but they won't let us buy anything."

Huang Sheng turned his head and glared at him.

"Shut up."

Jiang Mian smiled and then slowly added a sentence.

"This batch is for the tasting event only, and the quantity is very limited, so it cannot be sold retail."

Miss He reacted quickly and immediately raised her hand.

"Ms. Jiang, will there be similar quality batches in the future?"

Jiang Mian looked at her.

"Yes, there will be."

The scene fell silent instantly.

Everyone was waiting for her to continue.

Jiang Mian spoke slowly and deliberately.

"But it depends on the raw materials, the year, the processing method, and the final number of tasting slots."

"Oriental Flavors will not turn top-quality treasures into mass-produced goods that anyone can buy in order to seize the market."

As soon as those words were spoken, the expressions of many people in the front row changed.

They all understood.

This doesn't mean there's no stock.

However, there are certain requirements to purchase.

Qian Weimin immediately understood and continued the conversation.

"Yes, what our Dr. Jiang said is absolutely right."

"The better something is, the more worthwhile it is to wait for it."

Pierre suddenly turned his head to look at him.

"Mr. Qian, you've said that many times today."

Qian Weimin put on a serious expression.

"If it's important, of course we should say it more often."

Normally, Pierre would definitely have argued with him.

But this time, he didn't argue.

He turned around and looked directly at Jiang Mian on the stage, his eagerness impossible to hide.

"Miss Jiang."

The reporters, who had been frantically taking notes, quieted down considerably when they heard Pierre speak so solemnly.

The joking expression on Qian Weimin's face gradually disappeared.

Pierre took half a step forward, looking as solemn as if he were about to attend some important ceremony.

"I'd like to discuss a collaboration with you."

Jiang Mian did not respond to him immediately.

Pierre spoke much faster than before.

"I don't just want to buy a few jars of Oriental truffles from you."

"I want to become its official agent in France."

After he finished speaking, he paused slightly, as if afraid that Jiang Mian would think he was too narrow-minded, and then immediately added.

"If conditions permit, I would also like to take it to the whole of Europe, or even the European and American markets."

Martin looked up at him.

Luke also stopped writing.

Pierre's demeanor at that moment did not suggest that it was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

He had clearly thought about these words countless times on his way here.

"Miss Jiang, I know the most discerning restaurant chefs in France, and I also know collectors who are willing to wait three years for a good bottle of wine."

"They will surely understand the value of Oriental truffles."

"They need it."

"And I can bring it to them safely and securely."

Qian Weimin's heart nearly jumped out of his chest as he listened.

coming!

He went through all that trouble to send a telegram to Pierre, all for this moment.

Smith on Hui Rui's side is quite a traitor.

Now, Pierre has publicly expressed his intention to acquire the European agency rights in front of so many Hong Kong tycoons and media outlets, which carries more weight than any private negotiations.

Jiang Mian picked up the warm water next to her and slowly took a sip.

Lu Ting had somehow ended up standing beside her and naturally draped the shawl over her shoulders.

She had been standing for too long today, and Lu Ting had actually been keeping an eye on her the whole time.

She handed out water, adjusted her shawl, and discreetly blocked the crowd that might crowd from the side.

These actions were so natural, as if they had done this a thousand times before.

Ken, who was on the side stage, saw this scene and immediately raised his camera.

Click.

Another one.

He glanced down at the photos in the camera and couldn't help but mutter something under his breath.

"This photo will definitely make the headlines tomorrow."

Jiang Mian put down her cup and then turned her gaze to Pierre.

"Mr. Pierre, I believe you genuinely like our Oriental truffles."

Pierre nodded vigorously immediately.

"Of course!"

Jiang Mian did not continue speaking in response to his eagerness.

"But to become an agent, having a liking for it isn't enough."

"What Oriental Flavors is looking for is not just a merchant who knows how to sell goods."

"We also need to consider the channels, credit, aesthetics, and whether you can protect its brand value."

Pierre paused for a moment, then his expression quickly turned serious.

"I understand what you mean."

Jiang Mian continued speaking.

"Oriental truffles are not ordinary canned food."

"It cannot be casually placed on supermarket shelves, much less rudely displayed and sold as an ordinary condiment."

Pierre's eyes lit up immediately.

"right!"

"Miss Jiang, you're absolutely right!"

"It should be placed on the dining table where the person who knows best appreciates it."

"For example, top-tier restaurants, private clubs, collectors' dinners, and in front of people who truly understand precious ingredients."

Jiang Mian finally smiled.

"I really like hearing that."

Pierre immediately perked up.

"Can we discuss cooperation now?"

"We can talk."

Jiang Mian raised her hand, gesturing for him to sit down first.

"But not tonight."

Pierre was stunned for a moment.

Why?

Jiang Mian pointed to the guests present, her tone quite frank.

"This is a press conference tonight, not a negotiating table."

"Besides, it's not my off-get off work time yet."

A burst of light laughter immediately rang out from the audience.

Lu Ting looked down at her, a faint smile hidden in his eyes.

Qian Weimin immediately chimed in.

"Mr. Pierre, our Dr. Jiang is very busy today."

"But your opportunity has come at just the right time."

Pierre immediately looked at him.

"What do you mean by that?"

Qian Weimin cleared his throat, his tone calm and composed.

"At present, Oriental Style's sales channels in Europe and America are in a period of adjustment."

Pierre's entire body involuntarily leaned forward slightly.

"So, I happen to have an opportunity right now, right?"

Qian Weimin didn't elaborate, but instead gave a very businessman-like smile.

"The window of opportunity for good things doesn't stay open forever."

Pierre was now clearly panicking.

He immediately turned to Jiang Mian, and his speech became even faster.

"Ms. Jiang, I can immediately prepare a list of high-end French restaurants, a list of top food critics, and all the purchasing channels for private clubs."

"I can handle tasting events, magazine collaborations, and access to top chefs."

"I really don't want Oriental truffles to be ruined by those who only know how to look at warehouses and bills."

Recently, one of Tomato's authors wrote some works about the duality of reality and fantasy, causing all of Tomato's books related to orthodoxy to be semi-blocked for rectification. This means there's practically no traffic to the bookstore; only those who have added the book to their bookshelves can read them. As a result, my writing has been quite poor. I'm currently managing to update twice a day, but if things don't improve, I'll just have to stop.
