Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints-Chapter 297 - 173: Two Patek Philippe Watches at 2.7 Million Each? I’ll Take Two
Yang Chen and Li Junhao walked and chatted, while the Secretary very considerately called the HR manager to immediately handle the dismissal of Li Tianyun and Li Jiuyi, as well as the promotion procedures for Lin Yiren as purser.
To make a good impression on Yang Chen, the HR department worked very efficiently.
Yang Chen and Li Junhao were still chatting as they walked, when the HR manager sent emails through the group’s internal network to all leadership levels and department heads.
First, dismiss Li Tianyun and Li Jiuyi.
Second, promote Lin Yiren as purser.
Soon after, the department heads sent out notifications in the work group chat.
At this time, Lin Yiren, who was chatting with colleagues at the door, saw the notification in the group and instantly became excited, her heart racing.
"Wow, Yiren, you’ve been promoted to purser!"
"Li Jiuyi and his dad have both been fired."
"This must have been done by your shareholder boyfriend, right? Wow, he’s incredible."
"Even the captain was fired, it seems your boyfriend is really powerful! Training a captain is very challenging and costly, yet the group still fired him. It’s unimaginable..."
"Oh Yiren, I’m so envious of you. Your boyfriend is perfect, I also want a boyfriend like him. Boohoo..."
"This is the most romantic love story I’ve ever seen, winning the lottery together, and when the girlfriend is bullied at work, he becomes a shareholder and drives away those who bully her, even giving her a promotion. Wow, there can’t be a better man in the world than Yiren’s boyfriend."
...
Listening to her colleagues’ envious praises, Lin Yiren felt her happiness bloom like a flower.
"It’s not that amazing. You’ll all meet someone like that in the future," Lin Yiren said shyly.
At this moment, Yang Chen and Li Junhao came over, laughing and joking.
The flight attendants quickly stood at attention to see Yang Chen off.
Yang Chen shook hands with Li Junhao in farewell and walked towards Lin Yiren.
Lin Yiren joyfully ran to Yang Chen, throwing herself into his arms.
"Dear, did you make the company promote me?" Lin Yiren asked.
Yang Chen replied with a smile: "No, it had nothing to do with me; it mainly depended on your own ability to take on the role of purser, which is why they promoted you."
"Hehe... You’re just trying to make me happy," Lin Yiren said joyfully.
Ran Xiaojing and the others looked awkward, hanging their heads, not daring to look at Yang Chen.
Amid everyone’s farewells, Yang Chen left with Lin Yiren.
"Later, transfer Ran Xiaojing and others away from frontline positions, don’t let them board flights anymore," Yang Chen said.
Lin Yiren nodded and said: "Got it! I’ll handle it! Even the captain Li Tianyun was fired, how did you manage that?"
Yang Chen: "He was already on the older side and wouldn’t have worked for many years. The young captains the company has been training couldn’t get a chance. I suggested giving young people a chance, and Li Junhao agreed."
Lin Yiren: "Won’t Li Tianyun just find another airline and become a captain again?"
Yang Chen: "Impossible! Anyone who can become a captain signs an agreement with the company. After resigning or getting dismissed, they can’t work for another airline for several years. With his age, by the time he tries to find work again, no airline would dare hire him."
Lin Yiren: "That’s good. I was worried he’d make a comeback and Li Jiuyi would rely on his connections to bully people! Every year my dad had to send Li Tianyun gifts worth tens of thousands; I’ll have my dad send him some money one last time, and then I won’t owe them anything."
...
Yang Chen took Lin Yiren to the National Gold Mall to shop.
"Buy whatever catches your eye, I’ll cover all the expenses tonight," Yang Chen said domineeringly.
Lin Yiren tiptoed and kissed Yang Chen, saying: "Then I won’t be shy. I’ll really start picking things out."
Yang Chen laughed heartily and said: "Go ahead! Don’t hold back, buy whatever you like."
Although Yang Chen gave Lin Yiren an unlimited check, she was reluctant to spend much.
After a long time, she only picked a set of clothes from a domestic brand, costing just over ten thousand.
"Alright, this set is enough," Lin Yiren said contentedly.
Yang Chen: "Is that all you want?"
Lin Yiren nodded and said: "Yes! I’m satisfied! Hehe..."
Yang Chen thought she might just be embarrassed to buy more, so he said nothing further, figuring she’d get more comfortable over time.
At this point, the two of them arrived at the watch section.
There were many watch brands here, Patek Philippe, Rolex, Longines...
Though Yang Chen had heard of these brands, he really had no idea which series from which brand was better.
Yang Chen wore a Misia watch, which wasn’t a brand that professionally made watches, so it couldn’t compare with brands like Patek Philippe.
Just then, a man and a woman came out of the Patek Philippe store, looking very upset.
Man: "I told you not to go in and look, but you insisted."
Woman: "What’s wrong with just looking? Who says looking means you have to buy? What a snobby attitude, just a sales associate! Acting like the store belongs to her."
Of course, they must have looked but didn’t buy, so the sales associate got impatient.
Many sales staff in high-end stores can have this issue, judging "unaffordable" customers with bias.
A while ago, a construction worker was thrown out of a Nike store when he went to buy shoes with his son.
Only after it was exposed did Nike fire the employee.
In other words, if not for the pressure from public opinion online, the Nike store wouldn’t have thought much of it. They even tacitly allowed employees to be unfriendly to customers who looked financially incapable of purchasing.
