"Miss Shi Man, are you calling me? I'm willing to buy these items for you. As long as you like them, I'll buy whatever you want." Lin Shuai had just finished selecting items and walked over. When he heard Rao Shi Man talking about him, he was overjoyed.
Looks like I'm still as handsome as ever. Even superstars are talking about me behind my back!
"Okay, since Idiot Lin is so rich, I'll let you pay the bill." Qin Feng looked at Lin Shuai with a smile.
Rao Shi Man's expression darkened. She accepted Qin Feng paying the bill as a punishment for him, but she didn't want Lin Shuai to pay. She had no feelings for Lin Shuai at all.
"Okay, okay, I'll pay for all of Miss Shi Man's items … Store Manager, please help us count the price and give me my card!" Lin Shuai didn't wait for Rao Shi Man to refuse. He took out a bank card and handed it to the beautiful store manager.
Since all the items in the store were at a 10% discount, the total price was around 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. Lin Shuai didn't feel bad about spending this amount of money.
The beautiful store manager took Lin Shuai's bank card but didn't rush to settle the bill. She looked at Qin Feng and waited for his instructions.
"Today, our Idiot Lin is treating. Go take a good look at the prices. According to what we just agreed on, every time this person posts an advertisement on his Moments, you'll give him a 1% discount on one item. The rest will be calculated according to the store's original price. In any case, our Idiot Lin is a top student who studied overseas, so the thing he doesn't lack the least is money." Qin Feng laughed lightly.
The beautiful store manager quickly understood Qin Feng's meaning. She could tell that Lin Shuai and Qin Feng didn't get along. How could Qin Feng let that idiot off so easily?
"Don't worry, Mr. Qin. I'll calculate the price for you. I won't miss a cent." The beautiful store manager pushed the three trolleys and scanned the codes at the counter.
Lin Shuai was dumbfounded. His brain couldn't process what Qin Feng just said. He felt something was wrong with Qin Feng's words.
With the cooperation of the three shop assistants using the code scanning machines, Qin Feng and the other two quickly calculated the total price. The beautiful store manager was very satisfied with the price. She took Lin Shuai's bank card and walked over with a smile.
"Sir, I'm sorry. Your bank card doesn't have enough credit. Would you like to use another card or pay with cash?"
"Not enough? How could it not be enough? Did you make a mistake? " Lin Shuai thought that the store manager had already paid the bill and was about to return the card. Just as he was about to put on a high and mighty posture and show off, he suddenly heard the store manager say that the balance on the card was insufficient. Lin Shuai felt terrible.
There was a hundred thousand yuan in the card. How could it not be enough?
"I'm very sorry, this card has been tried three times, and the balance is indeed insufficient. There is absolutely no problem with our POSS machine." The beautiful store manager said with a smile.
This time, Lin Shuai's expression changed drastically. He felt that Qin Feng's words to the store manager were a bit strange. Now that he realized that he didn't have enough money, he became even more nervous.
"How … how much did we spend this time?" Lin Shuai asked in fear. That bad premonition suddenly grew stronger.
"Sir, you've spent a total of 1532080 yuan this time. Since you're Mr. Qin's friend, I'll use my authority as the store manager to deduct 2080 yuan for you. You've spent a total of 1530000 yuan."
1.53 million yuan!
When he heard the beautiful store manager say this number, Lin Shuai felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. Then, a series of muffled thunder reverberated in his mind. He was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.
"W-How much did you just say? 1.53 million? Y-you couldn't have made a mistake and reported an extra zero, right? "Lin Shuai's face was deathly pale, and beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead.
Even if the total spending for today was 1.53 million yuan, it was more than three times more than what he had expected, let alone 1.53 million yuan. This was practically asking Lin Shuai to go abroad and sell his kidney.
"Sir, you really know how to joke. Since you're Mr. Qin's friend, I believe that 1.53 million yuan is only the cost of a meal for you. Do you want to use another card or just write a check?" How could the beautiful store manager not see Lin Shuai's awkward expression? She knew that Lin Shuai definitely couldn't afford 1.53 million yuan, so she was just playing along with Qin Feng's act.
"Wait … W-Didn't you say that all the items in the store would be 1% off today? When I bought the items just now, I calculated in my heart. My items added up to 30,000 yuan at most. Even if I added Miss Shi Man's items, it'd be incredible if I could reach 100,000 yuan. How did you calculate 1.53 million yuan?"
When Lin Shuai suddenly heard 1.53 million yuan, he was so shocked that his brain couldn't process it. Now that he had calmed down, Lin Shuai thought about this account. No matter how he calculated, it couldn't possibly be more than 1.5 million yuan.
"Sir, you might have misunderstood what I said earlier." The beautiful store manager had already received Qin Feng's greeting. Now, she smiled unhurriedly and said, "I said that Mr. Qin can enjoy the treatment of 1% off of all the items in the store, and there's no limit to the number of purchases.
"But you actually didn't have this treatment. It was only after Mr. Qin showed up and gave you the right, so you have the right to 1% off of one item. As for the other items, they'll be given to you at the original price."
"F * ck, I only have the right to 1% off of one item, and I'll pay the original price for the rest?" Lin Shuai was dumbfounded. If he knew this earlier, he definitely wouldn't have stood up and pretended to help Rao Shi Man pay. After all, he didn't have that much money to pretend to be pretentious.
"Yes, Sir … but Mr. Qin is very loyal to you. He said that every time you help promote our Prada store by posting on your Moments, he'll increase the right to 1% off of one item. This kind of thing isn't open to other customers, but today, out of respect for Mr. Qin, our Prada Store in Acropolis City is willing to make an exception and give you this right."
The beautiful store manager had a smile on her face from beginning to end. However, in Lin Shuai's eyes, this smile seemed like it was asking for a beating.
This person kept saying things like "Mr. Qin said," "out of respect for Mr. Qin," and "you're Mr. Qin's friend." Every word was elevating Qin Feng and belittling herself. Lin Shuai, who was always high and mighty and admired by others, suddenly became someone who had to give Qin Feng face and bask in Qin Feng's limelight. He was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
However, things had already developed to this point. Lin Shuai could only suppress his dissatisfaction because he didn't have the 1.53 million yuan to pay.
While he cursed Qin Feng's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart, he still forced a smile and said to Qin Feng, "Group Leader Qin, I didn't expect you to have such a wide network in Acropolis City. Then I'll send a few more WeChat messages to my Moments … You have to tell that store manager that every time I send a message, she'll give me 1% off of one item!"
Lin Shuai always felt that Qin Feng wasn't reliable. This time, he carefully made sure that he didn't want Qin Feng and the store manager to change their minds if he sent a message to his Moments.
"Of course, I, Qin Feng, never lie. One is one, two is two," Qin Feng said with a smile.
"Sir, don't worry. I swear on my reputation as the store manager that as long as you send a message to your Moments, I'll give you a discount on one item."
Seeing that Qin Feng and the beautiful store manager had made their stance clear, Lin Shuai wasn't afraid of being scammed. Wasn't it just sending a few messages to his Moments? It wasn't a big deal. Plus, if he sent a message to his Moments and let everyone know about the discount, they would thank him.
Lin Shuai took out his phone with a smile and immediately opened his WeChat Moments. Just as he was about to copy the status from before and send 50 messages in one go, he froze as soon as he opened his Moments. He had a pained expression as if he had eaten sh * t.
"Idiot Lin, you have the nerve to say that the Prada store is offering a 1% discount to your Moments? Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? Friends downstairs, please maintain formation! "
"Idiot Lin, you have the nerve to say that the Prada store is offering a 1% discount to your Moments? Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? Friends downstairs, please maintain formation! "
… …
It hadn't even been an hour since the status of the Prada store offering a 1% discount was posted. At this time, there were already over 100 likes and over 70 replies.
Of the people who replied, over 40 were employees of the Royal Group's Sales Department. The rest were Lin Shuai's private friends, his superiors, and a few of his friends with benefits from the bar.
However, no matter what relationship these people had with Lin Shuai, all of them had the same comment. The instant Lin Shuai saw these uniform comments, he suddenly had the urge to log out of WeChat and never touch this thing again.
"Sir, how about I add you as a friend on WeChat first? That way, it'll be easier for me to calculate how many messages you've sent. Then, I'll give you a 1% discount on the same number of items."
The beautiful store manager couldn't help but remind Lin Shuai when she saw him staring at his phone for a long time. It was as if someone had sucked his soul out of his body.
"Ah … Oh, t-that's fine, it's fine. Haha!" After Lin Shuai came to his senses, he was still in a daze and couldn't even speak smoothly.
"Sir, what do you mean? Are you not going to advertise on WeChat anymore? Then I'll bill you according to the previous price of 1.53 million yuan. "
"Don't, don't give me the list … I-I suddenly remembered that I bought a lot of things at the Prada branch in Beihu last week. I won't buy so much today. I won't be able to use them even if I buy them back … Wait, I-I'll go see if there are any heavy items."
Lin Shuai felt as if he had swallowed a big mouthful of flies. That stifling, depressing, and disgusting feeling was stuck in his throat. He couldn't spit it out even if he wanted to, but he couldn't bear to swallow it either. It was as uncomfortable as one could imagine.
He couldn't care less about the disdainful looks from the beautiful store manager and Rao Shi Man. He ran to the pile of items and took out almost all of the items he'd bought.
After reading those comments on WeChat, he didn't dare to post another message promoting the 1% discount on the Prada store even if he was beaten to death. If he did, he would become a complete idiot in everyone's eyes.
"Um … Miss Shi Man, don't you think your basket of items is a little too much? We'll have to go to other places later, so it'll be difficult to carry everything."
"D-don't you want to take out a few items and leave one or two for me?" Lin Shuai looked at Rao Shi Man cautiously. He felt that he'd lost more face in his entire life than today.
