Chapter 8 Doing It For Him!
- The saleswoman's eyes lit up when she heard that Jiang Long wanted to buy the S-Class car. If Jiang Long could make the purchase, her commission could reach a five-figure sum!
- "Sir, are you sure about your decision to buy?" she asked.
- Jiang Long had initially planned to purchase a Rolls-Royce for Lin Wan'er. However, after considering it, he realized that the Rolls-Royce would be too ostentatious. Buying an S-Class to support Lin Wan'er's initial scene would be sufficient.
- "Yes, I am sure," Jiang Long replied.
- Lin Wan'er started to panic. Although this car was extremely luxurious, she would be extremely happy if she could actually buy it. However, the price made her doubt Jiang Long. Could it be that he was just stubbornly saving face? What if he couldn't come up with so much money later? Wouldn't that be even more embarrassing?
- The saleswoman asked, "Sir, this car has three different configurations. Which one would you like to purchase?"
- "If there are cars in stock, go for the highest configuration," Jiang Long instructed.
- "Alright, we have two cars in stock. You can wait in the lounge," the saleswoman informed him.
- Soon, Jiang Long made his selection and arrived at the dedicated payment counter. Lin Wan'er followed behind, feeling anxious.
- Jiang Long took out a black card from his pocket. This card had been personally given to him by a general from the army in the capital before he came to Longtan City. Jiang Long himself didn't know how much credit was accumulated in this card, but buying a Mercedes-Benz S-Class should be more than enough.
- The store manager immediately walked over and placed the car purchase contract on the table. After a quick glance, Jiang Long signed and swiped the card.
- However, when the black card was swiped, it made a sound indicating that the reading failed. The store manager was taken aback and said, "Sir, the card reading failed. Please swipe it again!"
- Lin Wan'er, who was standing beside them, felt her heart skip a beat. As expected, something went wrong when it came time to pay. It seemed that they wouldn't be able to come up with the 1.5 million yuan.
- At this moment, Lin Wan'er wished she could just grab Jiang Long and leave. She said, "Jiang Long, let's leave now. We can't afford to lose face like this!"
- Jiang Long said seriously, "Waner, trust me, I can buy this car!"
- Lin Wan'er smiled bitterly and said, "I know you might have some connections, but how much money do you really have? I hope you don't force yourself like this. In the end, it will only be embarrassing for yourself!"
- Jiang Long said, "Waner, let me make a call to confirm with them. Give me ten minutes!"
- "Okay, I'll give you ten minutes. If you can't resolve it in ten minutes, we'll just leave!"
- "Alright!"
- Jiang Long walked back to the payment room. The store manager's attitude also changed a bit. "Sir, if you're not buying the car, please leave," he said.
- Jiang Long replied, "I'm buying this car."
- The store manager said, "If you're purchasing, please choose a payment method. If you can't afford it, then we can't blame us for asking you to leave!"
- They said asking to leave, but it was actually just a way to drive him away. The store manager always had a cold attitude towards people who came to look at cars but didn't buy them. And the saleswoman didn't even bother to bring tea, considering it a waste of time.
- At this moment, Jiang Long took out his phone and called Guo Gang.
- "Guo Gang."
- "Long Palace? What can I do for you?" Guo Gang was a little surprised to receive a call from Jiang Long at this time.
- Jiang Long said in a deep voice, "Why can't I use the card I brought back from the capital?"
- As soon as Guo Gang heard this, he immediately explained, "Oh, I forgot to tell you. This card needs to be unbound. Because you have been carrying out missions abroad for these years, this card has been blocked and needs to be unbound!"
- "How do I unbind it?"
- "It's simple. I'll call the manager of the local Xiaxing Bank to personally unbind it for you!"
- Jiang Long said, "I'm at the Mercedes-Benz store on Huaihai Road. You only have five minutes!"
- Upon hearing this, Guo Gang immediately said, "Got it!" and hung up the phone.
- He immediately started to handle it, not underestimating Long Dian's orders.
- Meanwhile, Jiang Long sat down and waited quietly. Lin Wan'er stood at the door, feeling embarrassed to come in.
- The store manager said, "Sir, with your current attitude, I can only assume that you are deliberately wasting our staff's time."
- Jiang Long shook his head slightly and said, "I said I want to buy, so I will definitely buy."
- As he spoke, Jiang Long looked down at the time. "Seven minutes left..."
- Soon, five minutes passed. The store manager smirked, "Two minutes left. If you don't resolve it, don't blame me for having security escort you out, sir!"
- At this moment, a staff member rushed in. "Manager, the General Manager of Xiaxing Bank, Xu Baoqian, has arrived!"
- Upon hearing this, the store manager's expression changed. Xiaxing Bank was the largest state-owned bank in China, and Xu Baoqian, the General Manager of Xiaxing Bank in Longtan City, held a high position that even the mayor could not easily offend. Why would someone as important as Xu Baoqian come here today?
- The store manager swiftly adjusted his appearance and inquired, "Where is Mr. Xu at the moment?"
- The staff member replied, "He has already passed through the lobby and is heading in this direction!"
- Upon hearing this, the store manager was taken aback!
- Because this area serves as the lounge for payment at the rear,
- What does it mean for someone like Mr. Xu to come here?
- The store manager quickly glanced at Jiang Long and stated, "Why are you still seated here? We have an important guest arriving. Sir, please leave first!"
- "Leave? Are you trying to kick me out?"
- Jiang Long responded coldly.
- The store manager frowned, displeased!
- He was about to receive Xu Baoqian!
- Jiang Long was obstructing the way here!
- Lin Waner entered and couldn't help but interject, "Enough, Jiang Long, stop embarrassing yourself here!"
- Jiang Long shook his head slightly and explained, "I told you, I will purchase this car today, and the person arriving later is here to assist me."
- The store manager sneered, "Haha, do you dare to say that? The person who is coming later is Xiaxing's General Manager Xu, here to assist you? Don't make jokes!"
- However,
- Just as the store manager finished speaking,
- From outside, a deep voice slowly resonated.
- "Who is joking?"
- As soon as these words were spoken,
- The store manager was instantly shaken!
- Because,
- He clearly saw General Manager Xu already entering!
- The store manager ignored Jiang Long and quickly approached Xu Baoqian, respectfully saying, "General Manager Xu, you're here!"
- Xu Baoqian didn't even look at the store manager,
- He swiftly walked up to Jiang Long's side, and in front of everyone's eyes, said, "Mr. Jiang, I apologize for the wait!"
- "What?!"
- Lin Waner, who was standing nearby, was astonished by Xu Baoqian's attitude towards Jiang Long!
- And the store manager was dumbfounded!
- The General Manager Xu in front of him was actually extremely respectful to this Jiang Long?!
- What's going on?!
- Jiang Long slowly stood up and handed the black card in his hand to Xu Baoqian,
- "How long does it take to activate this card?"
- Xu Baoqian replied, "Not long, just a minute!"
- "Excellent!"
- The store manager, at this point, was so astonished that he couldn't say a word!
- Jiang Long didn't lie!
- Xiaxing's General Manager Xu really came to assist him!
