My family did business with the Chinese back before The War. And they do it now as well. They probably did business with them during The War too if I am being honest. The point is that I had some experience with the Chinese before I went to the Hyades. Walking out in a business suit was still a gamble though. Someone might have shot me for walking down that street. But respect for businessmen was so ingrained in the Chinese psyche that not one person accosted me. Other Cowboys echoed my action, and it was amazing to see how things changed in the Hyades.
