Chapter 151
If the East wants to develop its economy, it must export heavily; when the world is flooded with Eastern-made goods, our country will naturally have confidence.
Now, in the 1980s, export means earning precious foreign exchange, meaning that individual enterprises can step out of their doors and go global!
Of course, there are other uses……
Qingshan brand electric rice cooker
Earlier, exporting pressure cookers was difficult, because people here generally eat grilled meat, not stewed meat; changing their dietary habits is no easy task.
As for staple food, people here eat both rice and noodles; since that's the case, they definitely need electric rice cookers!

Walide
"Ours, at just eighteen dollars, will absolutely not be inferior to those from island countries; moreover, our rice cookers have a special coating that prevents rice from sticking, and crucially, this coating is green, environmentally friendly, and non‑polluting……
Qin Miao was blowing nonstop; the earlier small goods were just filler, this electric rice cooker is the main attraction!
Our Qingshan Factory's products must not only sell well domestically, but also become famous abroad!
Waleed widened his eyes, "That cheap?"
Qin
Eighteen dollars per unit, a hundred thousand units—that's 1.8 million dollars!
If this news gets back, Qingshan Factory will boil over again; we don't just want to make money, we want to earn foreigners' money and create foreign exchange for the country!
Chu Miaomiao was also pleased; this way her father could continue supporting Qingshan Factory—this is exemplary! We must strongly support it!
"Other products, each also need a hundred thousand!
He didn't even ask about the price; Qin was here to pull him into making money, and the price would surely be far cheaper than European products. Although the Saudis have money, they're not stupid—when there's a cheap product, of course they'll buy it back to try.
If the quality is good, they'll buy again; if it's bad, then…… we'll break off relations.
When the car reached Riyadh, the sky had already darkened; however, for this tropical desert country, most of the daytime is spent resting, with nothing much to do, and only at night does the day's pleasant life begin.
Liyade suburbs
"Those are our previous palaces; back when we hadn't discovered the oil beneath our feet, our country was poor, and even the royal family lived frugally. Now we live affluently, but His Majesty often educates us not to forget those times—he comes to stay in this old palace for a few days every year……
Going from frugality to extravagance is easy; the reverse is hard. This old king's idea is good, but sadly, who among the descendants will listen to his nagging about past hard days?
Moreover, even the old king is probably just putting on a show.
Entering the city, luxury cars are seen everywhere on the streets; the nightlife here is actually rather monotonous—no drinking, no women—so speeding has almost become the most common way for young people to seek excitement.
The palace lies in the center of Riyadh, magnificent and splendid; under the lights it shines even more brightly, many parts made of gold—indeed, the nouveau riche and gold are a match made in heaven.
Mr. Qin Ms. Chu side hall Your Majesty
No.
Qin Miao certainly wouldn't naively think that just arriving would grant him an audience with the old king; being received by a minister in charge of defense is already a high honor given his status.

With thousands of princes and princesses, it's no easy feat to make the king remember your name!
Chu Miaomiao felt a slight nervousness in her heart, after all, she was about to meet…… the king!
Qin Miao Chu Miaomiao
No.
Chu Miaomiao took a deep breath to steady her emotions, don't be nervous, cannot be nervous!
Along the passage, the decoration is even more luxurious; walking all the way, it's absolutely dazzling enough to blind one's eyes.
No.
This hall isn't actually large—just two or three hundred square meters—but the ceiling is very high, giving a solemn, reverent feeling; there are murals on the sides and above, which Qin Miao couldn't understand, so he didn't show off.
In front, a gold‑made chair holds a slightly thin old man with a black beard, wearing a white headscarf, a black headband, and a white robe—his attire is quite plain; he is the current king, Khalid bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud.
On either side below him sit a few people, wearing red‑checkered headscarves and black headbands—this is the common image of Saudis today.
Suertan, Wateban, Saleman
However, I must not appear overly enthusiastic now; this is only our first meeting.
Qin Miao Chu Miaomiao
"Young man, hello, I've heard what you said at the base, and you spoke very well. We Saudis lack nothing except a bit of hot‑blooded spirit, and that spirit is fully displayed in you Easterners……
"Your Majesty, because we have come through hardship, we can only see light through blood and sacrifice. That is why we love peace and sincerely treat any friend; you should know our basic foreign principle is peaceful coexistence, and we share many similarities with the Saudis……
On the seat, the old king kept nodding his head.
After he finished speaking, below, a red‑scarf‑wearer spoke up: "I heard you suggested at the air force base that we Saudis should fund the purchase of planes for Yituo—does your proposal stand from the perspective of Yituo's friends, or from that of our Saudi friends?"
Chu Miaomiao's heart gave a jolt—was this person coming to confront her?
