Jiang Cheng showed the guesthouse lady her newly acquired work and entry permits.

She's seen these every year, knows them all too well.
Seeing that trust was established, Jiang Cheng began to pursue her main goal.
"Sis, it's my first time doing translation, and I'm worried about mistranslating for the manufacturers. I thought I'd play it safe by getting some product information from them first and translating it myself, so I don't embarrass us before international guests."
What Jiang Cheng said made perfect sense, and the guesthouse lady warmly pointed her in the right direction.
"Let me tell you..."
"Those breweries stay at guesthouses around West Third Street every year..."
