C71 – Don’t You Regret It
“Are you here to collect your vehicle?”
Manager Zhou studied Su Ming for a moment and couldn’t resist approaching.
“Yes.”
Su Ming nodded casually.
“I manage this dealership, responsible for the sales records of all the cars here, yet I don’t recall seeing your name,” Manager Zhou stated with a hint of mockery.
“Are you certain?” Su Ming responded with a smile.
“Of course,” Manager Zhou replied coldly.
Su Ming maintained his smile and asked, “I’ll give you one final opportunity. Are you absolutely sure?”
Manager Zhou’s irritation began to show.
“Why all this needless talk?”
Su Ming’s smile remained faint.
“I provided you with a chance to reconsider. If you don’t value it, don’t blame me.”
“Why are you being so talkative?”
Manager Zhou’s patience wore thin.
“If you wish to explore, feel free. We have numerous Volkswagen vehicles over there for you to peruse.”
“This isn’t an appropriate place for you.”
“Moreover, you’re wearing slippers.”
“Your sloppy attire drove away a client I had been serving for half a month. I’ve lost a fifty-thousand-yuan commission because of this!”
Manager Zhou vented his frustration.
Su Ming finally grasped the situation.
“Ah, now I see.”
It finally dawned on Su Ming.
“No wonder those two security guards were so hostile towards me.”
“So that’s the reason.”
Su Ming found it rather amusing.
“You couldn’t retain the client’s interest, and yet you’re blaming me?”
“Is there a rule against wearing slippers?”
“So that’s how it is.”
Su Ming smiled.
“Why don’t you leave then?”
Manager Zhou angrily pointed to the door.
“Alright, no regrets.”
Su Ming smiled faintly and turned to depart.
Manager Zhou sneered at Su Ming’s words.
“Regrets?”
“How could I possibly regret it?”
“Who do you think you are? How could you make me regret it?”
“I am, after all, the dealership’s manager.”
“And you’re just a sloppily dressed individual.”
“Can you make me regret it?!”
“Manager, he’s left now. Please calm down.”
“Yes, let’s not stoop to his level.”
The two security guards quickly chimed in.
“In the future, refrain from playing with your phones by the door. Keep your eyes wide open and remain vigilant. Don’t allow anyone unauthorized to enter. Understood?”
“Yes!”
The two security guards eagerly placated the manager.
With the manager’s anger subsiding, there wasn’t much they could do.
Manager Zhou sneered as he watched Su Ming’s departing figure. His anger had somewhat abated.
He turned and headed straight to the second-floor office.
Su Ming remained unperturbed.
After all, Su Ming used to be a car salesman.
The car purchase agreement typically stipulated that the car dealership would incur substantial penalty fees if they failed to deliver the vehicle within the contractually agreed-upon timeframe.
This penalty was by no means insignificant.
He couldn’t help but wonder what Manager Zhao’s reaction would be when he learned the truth. Would he come to regret his decision?
Meanwhile, in a luxurious clubhouse, a corpulent middle-aged man lounged on a sofa, flanked by two attractive companions. Seated across from him was a sycophantic young man.
“Manager Zhao…”
The young man grinned.
Zhao Yunlai chuckled. “No worries, you can report to work tomorrow.”
“Thank you, Manager Zhao!”
The young man beamed with gratitude, promptly pouring a glass of red wine for Zhao Yunlai.
Just then, the room’s door suddenly swung open, crashing against the wall and startling everyone present.
“Secretary Chen? What’s going on?”
Zhao Yunlai furrowed his brow and directed his attention to Secretary Chen.
Secretary Chen had served as his subordinate for many years, consistently adhering to protocols.
It must be something significant for him to appear so flustered.
“Manager Zhao, we’ve received an unusually high volume of orders all of a sudden!”
Secretary Chen panted as he spoke.
“Why is that surprising?” Manager Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and nonchalantly remarked, “It’s not unusual for our car dealership to receive orders.”
“No, Manager!”
Secretary Chen persisted, his voice trembling.
“Manager, someone has placed orders for over four hundred vehicles and a Koenigsegg from our dealership simultaneously.”
“What!”
Zhao Yunlai was utterly stunned. He pushed the two companions away and rushed to his feet.
“What did you say? Say it again!”
Secretary Chen pointed at the door and replied, “Manager, those are all orders.”
A massive cardboard box stood at the entrance. Opening it, Zhao Yunlai discovered a plethora of vehicle orders.
He hastily examined them and found they were all signed contracts and car invoices.
There were several hundred orders inside.
Zhao Yunlai questioned, “Why was I unaware of so many contracts being signed in our dealership at once?”
“Manager, this customer didn’t visit our dealership to sign these contracts.”
Zhao Yunlai frowned and asked, “He didn’t come to our dealership?”
“Manager Zhao, these are contracts from the headquarters. I’ve already confirmed with the headquarters that the cars were purchased by a mysterious buyer.”
“However, this buyer resides here, so he acquired our vehicles directly from the headquarters.”
“During a vehicle purchase, the buyer is required to provide their identity information. Here’s the buyer’s identity.”
As Secretary Chen explained, he handed a document to Zhao Yunlai.
Zhao Yunlai promptly opened the document, revealing that the buyer was a remarkably young man.
In the buyer’s photograph, the young man wore a smile.
The buyer’s name on the invoice was Su Ming.
Examining the date, Zhao Yunlai noted that today was the scheduled day for vehicle collection.
Zhao Yunlai was profoundly astonished.
Who was this young man? How could he possess such formidable financial resources?
If Su Ming had purchased over four hundred vehicles, each worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, simultaneously, he would have been considered a significant client. However, the situation was far more astonishing.
Every vehicle in this purchase agreement was a luxury model.
Today, Su Ming had bought nearly every high-end vehicle available at their dealership.
“Manager Zhao?”
Observing Manager Zhao’s shocked expression as he held the invoice, Secretary Chen whispered, “Our dealership will close in under two hours.”
“Immediately call Zhou Hai and instruct him to keep the dealership open late tonight. No one is to close it without my explicit order.”
