But that's how business is; lies are indispensable. Even if they're not maliciously deceiving you, they still need to use lies to increase their own value.

"Haha, I see. Now, young man, would you be interested in cooperating with me?"

Manager Song looked at Lin Fan with a smile, and asked with great interest.

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Cooperation is of course no problem. I welcome anyone to cooperate with me."

"I just don't know where you do business, and what kind of cooperation you'd like to have with me?"

In fact, Lin Fan already knew that this guy came from the department store.

His purpose in doing this was to attract the biggest fish in the department store.

Although many investors and individual investors attend the exchange meeting, there are still some very attractive people to invest in in the provincial capital.

One of them is the owner behind the department store. The foot traffic here is incredibly high, and the daily inventory turnover is also a huge sum of money.

If they could secure orders from the people behind the department store, Lin Fan and his team's business would be significantly easier, and their trip to the provincial capital would have been worthwhile.

Therefore, ever since he set up his stall in front of the department store, he has had Huang San keep an eye on the department store.

When Manager Song came out, he didn't notice Huang San, but Huang San did. The two exchanged glances, and Lin Fan understood that the big fish he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

If nothing unexpected happens, the person in front of me should be a very influential member of the department store's leadership team, and might even be the owner of the department store.

"Young man, see this department store behind me? I'm in charge of clothing sales there!"

"If you're interested, we can collaborate. As for the collaboration method, I'll source the goods directly from your factory. Of course, the price is negotiable, so we can both make a profit. What do you think?"

Manager Song didn't waste any words and directly stated his identity.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan feigned surprise and asked, "So you're the manager of this department store?"

"To be able to cooperate with you is something I never even dared to dream of, so how could I refuse?"

"Since you're interested in my goods, we can try to cooperate."

"My requirements are very simple: I can't give you too much at once, but I have to deliver it to you at fixed times every month, and you can't adjust the supply of my goods based on changes in sales volume."

"Of course, I will also guarantee the quality of my goods. If the quality of the goods declines, our cooperation can be terminated at any time."

Lin Fan immediately made his request.

They didn't rush to offer themselves up just because the other party said they were the leader behind the department store.

Clearly, Lin Fan's words now fit the description of someone who knows nothing and is suddenly struck by a pleasant surprise.

Upon hearing this, Manager Song laughed and said, "Young man, such a small request is of course obliged."

"Your request isn't unreasonable, and I can agree to it. We can also discuss other matters in detail in person. Please set aside some time so we can prepare to draft a contract!"

The so-called requirement that the quantity of goods cannot be increased or decreased on the spot is usually a request made by experienced suppliers.

Lin Fan made this request because he was afraid that if the other party suddenly asked them to reduce or increase the supply of goods due to poor sales of the clothes or other reasons, it would disrupt his production plan.

Therefore, this condition must be included in the contract: if the goods don't sell well, it's your own problem. You can terminate the cooperation directly, but you can't ask Lin Fan to supply more goods when sales are good and to reduce the supply when sales are bad. This is obviously unacceptable for long-term cooperation.

Manager Song also gave Lin Fan a meaningful look, clearly realizing from this simple conversation that Lin Fan was not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

"As for our cooperation, to be honest, I have a seat on the top floor of the international trade fair in a couple of days. If you are interested, you can find me there and we can talk face-to-face!"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Manager Song's eyes lit up, and he said, "Oh?"

"I didn't expect that such a young man would be invited to an exchange meeting. He seems to have a bright future ahead of him."

Manager Song gave Lin Fan a meaningful look, then nodded and said, "Alright, since you plan to have us go to the exchange meeting to support you, that's no problem. I'll be there!"

Those who receive invitations to the exchange meeting are usually reliable companies. The only reason why a small factory like Lin Fan's could receive an invitation is that it must be a government-supported enterprise in a small locality.

Since he had the government's support, it was as if Lin Fan had been given an invisible layer of insurance.

People who can get government support must have no problem with the stability of their businesses. Even if Lin Fan wanted to go bankrupt, the government probably wouldn't let him go so easily.

"I'll be going now, see you at the exchange meeting!"

"Alright, see you later!"

Lin Fan watched Manager Song leave, then breathed a sigh of relief and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

After working so hard for so long, we've finally seen results.

The big fish I wanted to catch has taken the bait, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I have basically accomplished my goal of coming to the provincial capital.

Being able to sign a contract with the people behind this department store, and securing just a few orders at the exchange meeting, would be equivalent to making a fortune through this event.

If he can sign more and larger orders at the exchange meeting, it won't just be about getting rich; his business will undergo a qualitative change, reaching a new level.

In the afternoon, after selling all the clothes, Lin Fan took Lin Shuying and the others to a nearby restaurant and ordered a sumptuous meal.

Looking at the table laden with delicacies, Lin Zhi asked in surprise, "Xiao Fan, what's wrong with you today? Oh, right, I forgot to ask, who was that person who came to see you this afternoon and talked to you for so long?"

Lin Fan raised his glass, gestured to everyone, and then said, "I was just about to tell you this. We've landed a big order."
