Chapter 66: Go Buy Ice-Cola for Boss Zheng

"President Zheng, the two cars you mentioned were reserved by a customer a few days ago. They even paid a 100,000 deposit, but they haven't come to pick them up yet. They aren't the ready-to-drive stock you mentioned."

Wang Huan was acting very convincingly; he even made a show of pulling a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket and pulling one out to light it for Zheng Qian.

"President Zheng, I'm really sorry, please calm down."

"Damn it, are you playing me for a fool? You're only telling me now that there's no stock?"

"If you had told me earlier that there was no stock, I wouldn't have wasted so much time here."

Wang Huan was getting a little angry inside; the script wasn't supposed to go like this.

Normally, he had apologized and offered a cigarette; Zheng Qian should have tactfully told the two beauties that they needed to wait for the cars and then pay the deposit.

Wang Huan could tell that this guy was someone who didn't play by the rules. It was originally agreed that he would bring one model, but today he brought two.

Fine, then I'll play along with your little act.

Since I've had to take so much crap and act like a damn grandson, the final number definitely won't be just five thousand.

Wang Huan made up his mind that afterwards, he would at least demand twenty thousand from this kid as emotional compensation.

"President Zheng, there's really nothing I can do. This model is just too popular at our dealership."

"You can pay a 100,000 deposit, and we'll reserve one unit for you. If you want to order two, you'll have to pay a 200,000 deposit."

"How long do I have to wait?" Zheng Qian said coldly.

"One month."

Damn it.

Have to wait a month?

If this sales manager named Wang Huan had told him earlier that he had to wait a month, Zheng Qian wouldn't have spent over an hour browsing in the Mercedes-Benz dealership.

If there's no stock, what's the point of talking, no matter how good it is? Isn't it just a waste of time?

Zheng Qian felt like his intelligence had been insulted.

"Xiao Qian, why don't we just forget it?" Deng Yuqing hadn't intended for Zheng Qian to buy her a car in the first place, and now that they couldn't buy it, it was just as well—it saved money.

"Yeah, let's just forget it. We can drive any car; as long as it gets us around, that's fine."

Forget it?

How could he just let it go like that?

Zheng Qian was still counting on the two of them to reimburse his S680.

"No, you must give me an explanation. Call your boss over!"

Zheng Qian was feeling a bit frustrated; the more the two sisters said they didn't want it, the stronger his determination to resolve this matter became.

They had spent so much time in the 4S dealership, and since the two sisters really liked this model, Zheng Qian had already promised them before coming that he would get them the cars today.

If he couldn't get them, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to him, Zheng Qian?

When Wang Huan heard that Zheng Qian wanted him to call the boss over, he felt it was going a bit too far.

He leaned into Zheng Qian's ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Brother, that's enough. I've already covered for you clearly enough."

"Who's your brother? Are you sick?" Zheng Qian shoved Wang Huan away.

He had seen people trying to get chummy, but never like this.

Wang Huan was fuming; his anger was no less than Zheng Qian's.

Damn it, I took so little money from you, covered for you so clearly, and yet you're pushing your luck, shoving me around, and calling me sick.

If you push me too far, I'll expose everything about this.

"Hey, hey, hey, look, why are they arguing outside?"

"It's Wang Huan and that customer. Didn't he say it was his acquaintance? How could they be arguing?"

"I don't know, let's go watch the show."

Several sales managers poured out of the sales lounge to watch from the sidelines, wanting to know what was going on.

"Fine, since you won't give me any face, don't blame me for not leaving you any face."

Zheng Qian had really pushed Wang Huan to his limit.

"What a joke. You're just a car salesman, what kind of face do you have in front of me?"

"Do you think that just because you sell Mercedes-Benz, you're superior to others?"

"In my eyes, you're just an ordinary salesman. Why are you putting on airs here with me?"

Deng Yuqing and Deng Shuxin were seeing Zheng Qian lose his temper for the first time.

The fact that he was arguing with Wang Huan was, more or less, because of them.

"Xiao Qian, there's no need to lose your temper."

"Yeah, can't we just go somewhere else?"

"It's fine, just watch from the side." Zheng Qian gave them a reassuring look.

"You like to show off, right? Believe it or not, I'll spill everything you asked me to do?"

"Do I know you? What did I ever ask you to do? Go ahead and say it, let's hear it."

Wang Huan gave a wicked smile; those managers watching were all on good terms with him and wouldn't report this to the boss, so he might as well just say it.

"Fine, then listen up."

With his silver tongue, Wang Huan neatly and cleanly spilled the whole story in two paragraphs.

"Two beauties, you've actually been deceived by him. I even have the chat history for this; if you don't believe me, take a look."

Wang Huan also displayed the chat history.

But the person in the chat box with Wang Huan was not Zheng Qian!

"I'm dying of laughter."

Zheng Qian clutched his stomach, laughing so hard he couldn't straighten up.

How could Deng Yuqing and Deng Shuxin believe Wang Huan's story?

The story he told might not have been made up, but it definitely wasn't about Zheng Qian.

Deng Shuxin had seen Zheng Qian's bank account balance last time; it had over a hundred million in it.

Zheng Qian was a man of his word; he had no need, nor would he resort to such low-class tactics to deceive the two sisters.

Even if Zheng Qian had done that, what would be the point?

Just to show off? To pick up girls?

The two sisters' hearts had long belonged to Zheng Qian, okay?

"You like to show off, right? Then I'll show off too."

"Open your dog eyes wide and take a good look at how much money I have in my card!"

Zheng Qian directly displayed his bank account balance.

Everyone craned their necks, squinting to count carefully.

"One, ten, hundred... ten million, a hundred million?!"

One hundred and eighty million?

Wang Huan was in big trouble now; this guy wasn't his accomplice, but a genuine tall, rich, and handsome man!

A few million was just a drop in the bucket of his bank account!

There was absolutely no need for him to have you pose as some wingman for that little bit of money.

After seeing the bank account balance, Wang Huan's eyes widened like brass bells, and he was dumbfounded!

"What are you all doing, why are so many people gathered here?"

A man in a suit, with a [Sales Gold Crown] badge pinned to his chest, appeared in everyone's line of sight.

"Zhang Xiang? Aren't you supposed to be accompanying a customer to get their license plates?"

"There were few people at the vehicle management office today, so it didn't take much time. What's going on here?" Zhang Xiang explained.

"Wait, President Zheng?"

Zhang Xiang recognized Zheng Qian at a glance.

"Hello, hello, I didn't expect you to grace our 4S dealership with your presence. Why didn't you give me a heads-up before coming?"

"Quick, hurry, go buy President Zheng a cola, it has to be iced!"

Zheng Qian frowned. Who was this guy? How did he know he liked drinking iced cola?

"President Zheng, don't you recognize me? I've met you before."

Zheng Qian still had no impression.

"Last time you came to our 4S dealership to look at cars, you browsed around for a bit and then went to the BMW dealership across the street."

When Zheng Qian heard him say that, he finally had some impression. Last time he came with Jin Lu, he had indeed stopped by the Mercedes-Benz dealership, and this guy had served him.

However, how did he know he liked drinking iced cola?

"That salesman at BMW is an old friend of mine. When we were out drinking and eating, I heard him talk about serving you. You made a deal for a two-million-plus 7 Series in just a few words. You're really generous!"

Zhang Xiang originally didn't have much of an impression of Zheng Qian, but when he was drinking with his colleague from across the street that night, he heard his BMW friend say that he had closed a car deal with a bottle of iced cola.

Zhang Xiang hadn't believed it at first, but his friend described what Zheng Qian and Jin Lu looked like, as well as the transaction process. Zhang Xiang suddenly had an impression, thoroughly remembered this person named Zheng Qian, and also remembered that he liked iced cola.

Just now, when Zhang Xiang was identifying himself to Zheng Qian, he said "Here to buy a car again," instead of "Here to bring your girlfriend to buy a car again."

For a tall, rich, and handsome man like him, it wasn't exactly unusual to date several girlfriends at the same time.

Buying a car for a girlfriend who was performing well wasn't anything strange either; he wasn't short on money.

How was Wang Huan to know that Zheng Qian was there to buy a car for real? He still thought he was the good brother who had asked him to act as a shill.

An expression of extreme terror appeared on Wang Huan's face.

"Zhang... Zhang Xiang, is everything you just said true?"

"Could it be fake? President Zheng, I've bought the cola for you, drink it while it's cold."

With a thud.

Wang Huan sat directly on the floor.
