John Herd wasn't directly overwheld by the benefits thrown by Mao Tanfeng; instead, he was very clear-headed and said, "I'm aware of the Mao Family's strength, being the largest business family in the entire Jiangnan Province. Setting up more retail stores in Jiangnan Province, Tiannan Province, and Miaojiang Province doesn't seem to be difficult, does it? Why do you want to collaborate with and share the profits?"
Herd always felt sothing was fishy about these matters. He had known Mao Tanfeng for two years. Although this guy was always generous, even the most generous people wouldn't go so far as to share sothing related to family interests with others, would they?
Mao Tanfeng imdiately laughed, "Haha, Herd, I understand what you an. However, the reason for all of this is quite simple. You have to know that in Huaya, if you sell the sa thing, as long as you have the Arican language labeled on the product, many people will chase after it!"
"Such a thing exists?!" Herd said in astonishnt, "Isn't labeling in Arican just a convenience for those who only speak it? Could this really be a reason for people to chase after it?"
Herd couldn't figure out why this situation would occur.
Mao Tanfeng sneered, "Of course it is! This is a very common phenonon in Huaya. When products are labeled in foreign languages like Arican, Island Country language, Fusang language, many people think it's imported foreign goods, very good, and then they would chase after it to buy."
"But... Why is this so? Can labeling in another country's language have such a big effect?" Herd still didn't understand.
"It's all because many Huaya people inherently believe that foreign things are good." Mao Tanfeng said lightly, "In their perception, Huaya-made things are bad, foreign things are good. The moon abroad is rounder than at ho, the air in Arica is fresher than at ho, so even say Arican air has a sweet scent."
Herd was speechless, he frowned and said, "It would be nice if our Arican air were really that good. The air in Arican countryside is surely good, but isn't the air quality in rural areas good all over the world?"
"I don't know, anyway, soone did say that, but does it matter to us? It's not important at all! Herd, don't tell you're a philanthropist? You still sympathize with those lowly poor people?" Mao Tanfeng laughed and said.
Herd laughed, "Of course not. For , as long as I can make money and manage the risk, I can do it! Actually, what Marx said was very correct: with 10% profit, I ensure to use it everywhere; with 20% profit, I beco active everywhere; with 50% profit, I dare to take risks; with 100% profit, I dare to trample all human laws; with 300% profit, I would risk the gallows!"
Marx's sarcastic words about capitalists were now nothing but a joke to Herd.
Mao Tanfeng then laughed heartily, "Hahaha! Right, right! You think just like . I don't care about the so-called patriotic sentint, as long as we can make money, who isn't collaboration? Since many Huaya people like imported goods, then I'll sell imported goods! Moreover, your company is one of the John family's retail chain, and with the sign of John Retail, it will definitely cause a huge sensation in Jiangnan, Tiannan, and Miaojiang Provinces!"
"Hahaha! All right! Then we'll settle this!" Herd was also very pleased. Entering the Huaya market and being assisted by a local powerhouse like the Mao Family, his business would be smoother and smoother.
"Since we've settled it, let's proceed without delay!" Mao Tanfeng said.
"Great! You and I are both straightforward people! Co on, let's sign the contract!" Herd imdiately said.
Very soon, the agreent between Mao Tanfeng and Herd reached the Mao Family, and everyone cheered. Once their joint retail network with John Retail was established in the three provinces, they could gradually take down the Xu Liu Group-product retail stores.
After all, although Xu Liu Group's products were popular, relying solely on their products wasn't enough to sustain a retail store.
At this ti, Xu Hao still didn't know about these events; he was looking for a job with Bing Wanxin.
Bing Wanxin, this girl, was dissatisfied and insisted on finding a job first; she really didn't want to work for Xu Hao.
She just ca out of the Ice Palace and had no concept of money. She owed Xu Hao a total of two to three hundred million over these days. Xu Hao paid her a salary of one million a month, more than ten million a year, but it would take twenty to thirty years to pay off two to three hundred million!
