Chapter 189: Distressed
Seeing the golden VIP card in Ye Xingxing's hand, the saleswoman's gaze was momentarily sluggish, and it took a long time to react.
"First...... Sir, may I ask your surname?" The saleswoman looked up at Ye Xingxing, her eyes changed from contempt and disdain just now to respect and even a little fear, and her voice trembled uncontrollably.
This saleswoman has been working in the Imperial Commercial Building for five or six years, and her qualifications are considered old, and she has almost seen all kinds of preferential cards and VIP cards distributed in the commercial building, but she has never seen such a VIP gold card in front of her.
Of course, not seeing it does not mean that you haven't heard of it, not long ago a high-level person in the commercial building revealed such a message, saying that the VIP card of the imperial commercial building in addition to the red card, silver card, there is also a gold card. It's just that the gold card is only in the hands of the legendary chairman of the "weak water group" and the lady Duanmu who is designated as the successor of the chairman, and the objects of the gifts are their close relatives and friends, and even characters like Manager Li are not eligible to get it, which shows how precious the gold card is.
Holding a VIP card to shop in the Imperial Commercial Building, the red card can be discounted by 20%, the silver card can be discounted by 6%, and the gold card can be discounted, the female saleswoman is not clear. All she knows is that the tall-headed, sunny and handsome young man in front of her must have a very good relationship with the high-level of the "Weak Water Group", and the "Imperial Commercial Building" is only a subordinate branch of the "Weak Water Group".
"My surname is Ye. Ye Xingxing said and put the gold card on the cashier in front of the saleswoman, and said with a smile: "This card was given by a friend, take a look, don't be fake." ”
"Mr. Ye?" The saleswoman's eyes lit up, and she wanted to confirm again, but she didn't care much about whether the gold card was real or fake. There is a string of codes on the gold card, as long as you enter it into the computer on the cash register to check the authenticity, a fool will make a fake!
"The surname Ye is good, but you call me sir...... I felt weird, like I was old...... It's better to call it 'Young Master Ye'!" Ye Xingxing said with a smile.
When the saleswoman heard Ye Xingxing say this, she was basically sure that he was the person Manager Li was talking about, and respectfully said to Ye Xingxing, "Mr. Ye, please wait a moment", picked up the gold card and sat down next to the computer to check it, and then turned around and picked up the phone and called, and I didn't know who I had a few words with. After hanging up the phone, when she looked at Ye Xingxing again, her gaze had become extremely eager.
"Miss, you haven't answered what I asked you! How much discount can you get when you buy this dress with this card? Listen to my friend, at least 50% off, right? You calculate how much it is first, and after we pay, we have to continue shopping!" Ye Xingxing saw that the saleswoman was sitting in front of the computer with the gold card that Duanmu Rong gave him, flipping through and looking at it over and over again, and he didn't mean to settle accounts at all, so he couldn't help but urge.
"Mr. Ye, Manager Li of our commercial building will be here soon, can you wait a while? You have the VIP gold card of our commercial building, that is the VIP of our commercial building, I believe that Manager Li will definitely give you the greatest discount, not to mention five or three discounts!"
"Three folds, ah......" Ye Xingxing looked at Yan Ningren and Yan's mother, and saw that Yan's mother's face was even more happy, and she muttered to herself, as if she was secretly thinking about how much more she would need to pay after the dress was folded three times, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, then wait a little longer!"
"This skirt is 5,000 yuan, if you really give it a 3 discount, you can get it for 1,000!" Yan's mother glanced at Ye Xingxing happily, and asked in a low voice: "Happy, you know the manager of this commercial building? No, the manager was obviously on the scene just now, if you know each other, he won't ignore you......
While speaking, I heard a sound of footsteps getting closer, and the white and chubby, manager Li in a suit and leather shoes, actually trotted over regardless of his image.
"Where's the person, what about Mr. Ye?" Manager Li paused in front of the cash register, took out a handkerchief and wiped a layer of fine sweat oozing from his forehead, looked around, and asked the saleswoman urgently.
"Manager Li, this is Mr. Ye. The saleswoman pointed at Ye Xingxing, and handed the gold card in her hand to Manager Li, "This is Mr. Ye's VIP gold card......
Ye Xingxing's clothes were too ordinary, so Manager Li hadn't paid much attention to him from the beginning, and after listening to the salesman's words, Manager Li was obviously stunned, so he focused his eyes on Ye Xingxing.
"What's wrong?" Ye Xingxing saw that Manager Li could see that he could see it, frowned, and thought to himself that Lao Tzu is not a beauty, and there are no flowers on his face, is it so attractive to you?
"Ah......" Manager Li seemed to realize that he was out of shape, and subconsciously glanced down at the gold card, and then his chubby face was full of flattering smiles, and he took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Ye Xingxing, and said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, the contemptible surname is Li Mingyue, and he is currently the manager of the commercial building." There was a place to snub Mr. Ye just now, please bear with me!
Ye Xingxing saw him nodding and bowing with a humble attitude, so he shook his hand and said with a smile: "Manager Li, you are too polite......! Listen to Duanmurong and say that Manager Li is her friend?"
"Don't dare! Don't dare! Contemptible people are just serving Miss Duanmu! I don't know ...... Mr. Ye and Miss Duanmu are together" Hearing Ye Xingxing actually call Duanmu Rong's name, Manager Li decided in his heart that the relationship between him and Duanmu Rong must be extraordinary, otherwise Duanmu Rong would not have given him a precious gold card.
Regarding the usefulness of this kind of gold card, Ye Xingxing thinks that it can only be used when shopping in the "Imperial Commercial Building", but Manager Li knows it well, and knows that in the future, as long as Ye Xingxing goes to the commercial building market under the name of "Weak Water Group" to shop, this gold card will be able to enjoy unique treatment as soon as it is bright.
"Me...... Duanmu Rong and I studied in the same martial arts academy, and our personal relationship was also very good...... By the way, not long ago, Manager Li also went to the Duanmu sisters' birthday banquet, right? Duanmurong and I were sitting at the same table, just talking to their family, and didn't pay much attention to which guests were sitting at the other tables......" Ye Xingxing saw the awe on Manager Li's face when he mentioned Duanmu Rong, and his heart moved, and the surname Suo played this "relationship card" with Duanmu Rong, hoping that this Manager Li could give himself a little more preferential treatment for a while.
It would definitely be an incomparably honorable thing to sit at the same table with Qiu Qiaoshui's family, if it wasn't for a very high status, an excellent relationship, or a close relative of the Duanmu family, there would be no such opportunity.
Sure enough, after listening to Ye Xingxing's words, Manager Li's attitude became more respectful.
"The Duanmu sisters' birthday banquet invited some celebrities and business predators from the Federation, despicable...... Contemptible people are not eligible to participate...... I hope I can have a chance next year......" Manager Li sighed, and then put on a smile again, "Mr. Ye has established such a good relationship with Miss Duanmu, it is really enviable, please take care of Mr. Ye in the future!"
Ye Xingxing laughed, "Where is it, I will come to Manager Li's territory to buy things in the future, and I will ask Manager Li to take care of me!"
"Of course, that's of course!" Manager Li saw that Ye Xingxing was so easy to speak, and lost no time in taking out a bronzing business card and handed it out, "Mr. Ye, my contact information is on the business card, and when you come to shop in the future, you will say hello in advance, and the contemptible person will definitely receive it in person." If Mr. Ye is dissatisfied with anything, please criticize and correct him!"
Ye Xingxing glanced at Xia Bing and sighed: "Manager Li, actually, I don't think you handled that matter properly just now." The man and the woman were local thugs who had clashed with me before. Especially the man, when he saw that my sister Ning Fat was beautiful, he did something to her, and later tried to attack me, so he was knocked unconscious by my bodyguard. Many of the salespeople in your shopping mall witnessed the whole thing, and many customers can also testify......"
The sweat on Manager Li's forehead had just dried up, and then it seeped out again, he laughed a few times, beckoned to the security squad leader of the shopping mall, and said to him solemnly: "You, take a few people over, drag the unconscious man and the crying shrew out for me, and don't allow them to come to the shopping mall again in the future! If the police arrived and asked about the incident, you would say that the man and woman were picking quarrels and provoking trouble, interfering with the normal business of the commercial building, and had a conflict with the security guard, and the security guard knocked him ......unconscious out of self-defense."
The security guard nodded in agreement, and asked cautiously, "Manager, what about ......the others?"
"Everyone else is innocent and victims. After driving out the man and woman, you will personally apologize to them on behalf of myself and all the staff of the commercial building! Remember, your attitude must be sincere, and you must satisfy this person! Go ahead, if you can't handle this matter, you can also roll up and leave!"
For Manager Li's 180-degree turn in attitude, the security squad leader was quite puzzled, although he was depressed, he still went with a smile.
Grandma's, who let the wages and benefits given by the Imperial Commercial Building be the highest in the entire Central City? Others want to come in and find something to do, even if they are a toilet cleaner, they have to go through fierce competition! I am a dignified fourth-class star martial artist, but in order to be the security guard of this Imperial Commercial Building, I don't know how many relationships and how many favors I have to get in, if I really roll up the quilt and go home, the wife and children at home can drown themselves with saliva!
Soon after the security guard ran away, Sister Taohua's cry became smaller and weaker, thinking that she was forced out by the security guards of the commercial building. After a while, Xia Bing, who had a cold face, and Yan's father, who had a relaxed face, walked towards this side one after another.
Xia Bing saw Ye Xingxing talking to the manager of the commercial building, and he didn't get too close, he stood with Xia Huo and Yu Xiaoxiao, looked around vigilantly, and began to perform his bodyguard duties.
As for Father Yan, the security captain of the commercial building bowed to him and apologized just now, and said I don't know how many good words, so he almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him to make amends, which made him feel a little confused, so he walked to his wife and daughter and asked in a low voice, and then he knew what was going on.
"Ning Fat, didn't you say that Ye Xingxing is very poor? I don't look like it! He is obviously a young man with money and ability...... "Yan Ning Fat's parents saw that the manager of the commercial building actually nodded to Ye Xingxing, polite, and their hearts were surprised and delighted.
"How do I know! The last time I met him, he wasn't like this......" Yan Ningzhi also felt that what was happening in front of him was a little incredible, as if Ye Xingxing's identity had changed overnight, from a poor boy who didn't know anything about the world to a broad young master who traveled widely.
The conflict with Brother Aaron was dealt with, and the mood of Yan Ningren's family improved a lot. Ye Xingxing took the dress that had been packaged by the salesman from Yan Ningzhi's hand, and said to Manager Li with a smile: "I accompanied a friend to buy something, but something like this happened in the middle...... Alas, the good mood was also ruined. Manager Li, you have to give us a little more discount as compensation!"
"That's!That's!" Manager Li handed back the VIP gold card to Ye Xingxing with both hands, patted his chest and said, "Mr. Ye's friend is a contemptible friend." Now that the contemptible people are in charge, this dress is given to this beautiful lady! In the future, whether Mr. Ye comes to shop by himself or brings his friends, this shopping mall will be free!"
"Imperial Commercial Building" has a strict management system for the entry and exit of funds, even Manager Li can not easily move and occupy, he said that it is free, in fact, he is ready to use his own money to pay in advance, anyway, the matter of thousands of yuan, compared with his rich salary, is nothing at all, if you can use this matter to establish a friendship with Ye Xingxing, maybe you will be able to get closer to Miss Duanmu in the future, so that this small investment is still very cost-effective.
Ye Xingxing waved his hand and said, "You can get a little more discount, if it's free...... Why do I think it's similar to robbery? Haha, Manager Li, you have to charge a little bit of a cost, right? Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed to come back in the future!"
Seeing that Ye Xingxing said seriously, Manager Li was no longer polite, and said, "Then I mean, give you a two-fold discount, right?"
If a piece of clothing is sold at a two-fold discount, it is definitely a loss-making business, but Ye Xingxing can see that this Li Jing is generous in financial management, and he is not bad at all, so he smiled and took out his bank card and asked the female business to brush it.
"Happy, this dress has already given so many discounts, how can you still make you pay? I'll come! I'll come!" Yan's mother squeezed to the cash register, busy taking out the bank card she had brought in her pocket.
"Auntie, I said that this is a gift from me! If you are polite to me, how can I be embarrassed to come to your house for dinner in the future! You can also pick one, and I will pay the bill together! Two discounts, there are not many opportunities!"
Yan's mother smiled, looking at Ye Xingxing's eyes, there was a little more taste of her mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, seeing that Ye Xingxing insisted, she didn't say more, and asked her daughter Yan Ningzhi to accompany her to choose a set of women's clothes that she had just fancied.
After settling the bill, Manager Li generously gave each of Yan Ning's family a silver card of "Imperial Commercial Building", with this card, when they come to buy it in the future, all goods will be 6% off. This kind of discount is not available to ordinary customers.
It was not early, and seeing that Yan Ning's family of three wanted to go home, Ye Xingxing wanted Xia Bing to drive for a ride. Yan Ningzhi's parents heard that Ye Xingxing actually came in a car, and the surprise in their eyes was even stronger, but when they saw that Ye Xingxing still had friends to accompany them, they resolutely refused. The three members of the family waved goodbye to Ye Xingxing, walked side by side, and left the "Imperial Commercial Building" with a happy face.
Seeing that Manager Li had been standing beside him with a smile on his face, and his wrist-worn mobile phone rang from time to time, Ye Xingxing knew that he must have a lot of affairs to deal with, so he said: "Manager Li, let's go back after a while, you have something to do first!"
Manager Li really had a few urgent matters to deal with at hand, and when he heard Ye Xingxing say this, he shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly, and then arranged a few words for the salesman with a serious face, and said a few words of "no company" to Ye Xingxing, turned around and walked back to the office hurriedly.
As soon as he returned to the office, he received another call from Duanmu Rong.
"Miss Duanmu, what else do you have to order?"
When Mu Rong had something to do at the front end, it was conveyed to Manager Li by the assistant or secretary, and tonight in just an hour, she actually made two phone calls in person, which made Manager Li feel flattered.
"Manager Li, my friend surnamed Ye...... Did you see it?" Duanmu Rong's lukewarm voice came.
"Yes, I see! Miss Duanmu's friends, all of them are dragons among people! Although Mr. Ye is young, he talks elegantly and has an extraordinary temperament, in front of him, I am really ashamed of myself!" Manager Li complimented.
Miss Duanmu called twice to inquire in person, and the questions were all about the boy surnamed Ye, which shows how important the position of the boy surnamed Ye in Miss Duanmu's heart is, Manager Li suddenly felt that he had just received Ye Xingxing's money at a discount of two, whether he had made a big mistake.
"What did he buy?" Duanmu Rong asked again.
"This ...... Mr. Ye himself didn't buy anything, but his friend did buy a few clothes......"
"Oh, he'...... He didn't show the gold card I gave him?"
"Yes. Manager Li said: "I will give a two-off discount on the clothes his friend bought!"
"Two folds?" Duanmu Rong's voice faded a little, and he said slowly: "Didn't I tell you that he is a very good friend of mine, let you take care of it a little more?"
Manager Li had already heard that Duanmu Rong's tone was a little dissatisfied, and the sweat on his body came out as soon as he "brushed", and hurriedly defended: "Miss Duanmu, this ...... That is true...... I was reluctant to take a penny from Mr. Ye, but Mr. Ye said...... It is said that the Imperial Commercial Building is also the industry of the 'weak water group', for its development and strength, you have worked hard all night, and people are a lot haggard, he will feel distressed when he thinks about it, how can he be embarrassed to take advantage of your little advantage, and take things for nothing from here? I was worried that Mr. Ye would be angry, so I just accepted a little ...... from him."
"You told me that the commercial building is an industry of the 'Weak Water Group'?"
"I didn't ...... I thought of the relationship between Mr. Ye and the eldest lady, and I didn't dare to hide it from him...... Miss Duanmu, Mr. Ye hasn't left yet, or ...... I'm going to get the money back to him?
"No need. Duanmu Rong's tone softened significantly, "He really ...... Did you really say those words?"
