Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 67: Picking Up the Car
Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Picking Up the Car
"Just kidding, don’t take it to heart."
Li Jing waved his hand with a smile, ending the topic.
Zhang Ling accompanied the laughter, but her eyes seemed thoughtful, as if she understood Li Jing a bit more.
She then spoke again, "President Li, it was indeed wrong of me to complain earlier. But rest assured, our properties are all high-end and exquisite, with various types of housing.
Next time you have time, I guarantee I’ll help you find a type you’ll like."
Upon hearing this, Li Jing just nodded without giving a clear response.
This left Zhang Ling feeling somewhat uncertain.
When chatting with other clients before, Zhang Ling had a certain confidence in her looks and speaking skills. Even if the other party wasn’t immediately persuaded, they’d fall into her rhythm.
But in front of Li Jing, neither showcasing her appearance nor using her speech to guide and flatter had a notable effect.
This only proved that Li Jing had not only seen many women but also had strong financial power; he would buy if he wanted and wouldn’t if he didn’t, acting entirely on his mood, unaffected by mere words.
Compared to Li Jing’s calm aura, Zhang Ling, in front of him, lost the confidence and assurance she had when serving other clients.
Maybe it was because of her excessive desire for performance, or perhaps his overly calm attitude towards her, or maybe it was his strong financial strength shown by paying over three million without blinking.
In short, Zhang Ling realized Li Jing wasn’t as easy to win over as other clients, or rather, he couldn’t be won over by conventional means.
Based on this car purchase experience, Zhang Ling roughly judged Li Jing’s consumption habits.
For things he likes, is satisfied with, and internally approves of, he spends generously without hesitation.
For things he’s unsatisfied with, whether it’s products or services, he won’t consume, no matter the tricks or words used.
In the face of absolute economic strength, clients have enough confidence, making most sales tactics and skills meaningless; the only thing to do is to provide a service that satisfies and pleases him.
Thinking of Li Jing’s indifferent attitude towards her, Zhang Ling felt some anxiety creeping in.
It wasn’t easy meeting a quality client with a need to buy a property; she absolutely couldn’t miss this opportunity, or else her quarterly performance would again not meet standards, and company penalties would follow.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ling’s mind raced, trying to find a way to get Li Jing to recognize her and be willing to buy a property from her.
Just as Zhang Ling was lost in thought and efforts, Li Jing’s phone received a message from Zhang Xinxin.
Li Jing opened the chat box, raised an eyebrow, seeing a picture of himself sitting with eight companions at an internet café yesterday.
Next was Zhang Xinxin’s surprised question, "Brother Jing, have you finished your tour in Lishui City?"
Li Jing was puzzled, "How do you know? Where did this picture come from?"
"This picture is trending in the companion play circle’s forum! Everyone is discussing a tall, rich, and handsome guy playing games with eight companions."
Zhang Xinxin quickly explained, "I have a few sisters in the companion play circle. They were just discussing it in the group, and when I saw the picture, I realized it was you, Brother Jing, so I knew. I just didn’t expect you to like costume cosplay."
"This... I was just trying it out."
Li Jing roughly explained, looking somewhat embarrassed, not expecting his online image to get a bit of unexpected fame like this.
And Zhang Xinxin was excited, "Brother Jing, today is Sunday, how about I come over to see you later? Anyway, it’s only half an hour by high-speed rail from Celestial Sea City to Lishui City."
"Don’t you have to work tomorrow?"
"I do. I’ll take the earliest high-speed rail back to Celestial Sea City tomorrow morning.
Someone in our company bought a house in Lishui City, goes there every weekend, and takes the high-speed rail back to Celestial Sea City on Monday morning."
Li Jing indeed had heard of such cases, mainly due to the expensive houses in Celestial Sea City. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Immediately, he recalled that heated night in the ancient town, feeling his blood speed up slightly, agreeing, "Sure, I’ll send you the location. You can take a taxi over after you get off the high-speed rail."
"Great! Brother Jing, wait for me. I’ll dress up nicely before I come to see you!"
Exiting the chat interface, Li Jing turned just in time to see the female salesperson walking over briskly.
"Mr. Li, your temporary license plate has been processed, along with other documents and materials, all placed in a document bag for you."
The female salesperson handed over the document bag with both hands, "You can check again, and if everything is fine, you can proceed to pick up the car."
Li Jing opened the document bag, quickly scanned through it, then walked towards the hall with the salesperson.
As soon as they entered the hall, a look of surprise flashed across Li Jing’s face.
Behind him, Zhang Ling couldn’t help covering her mouth in shock, "It’s so beautiful."
Around Li Jing’s Maserati, a beautiful and delicate scene was arranged with balloons of various colors, along with gifts and cake.
"Mr. Li, this is the car pickup ceremony specially prepared for you by our store."
After explaining, the female salesperson enthusiastically handed him a bouquet of fresh flowers, then signaled to a few colleagues behind her, who immediately said in unison:
"Congratulations, President Li, on acquiring your new car. May your luxury car accompany you on a brilliant journey ahead."
As the words fell, there was a warm round of applause, drawing the attention of other people in the hall viewing cars, who all turned to look.
Seeing a young man buying a Maserati GT, a few people’s desire to purchase a car intensified, urging the nearby salesperson to introduce Li Jing’s Maserati model.
Upon learning that Li Jing had bought it outright for 3.45 million, they all had a trace of surprise in their eyes, glancing at Li Jing a few more times.
Meanwhile, the female salesperson had already taken out the gifts, handing them to Li Jing with both hands.
The gifts mainly included a car model, aromatherapy, and small items like a notebook.
Although just small gifts, combined with this ceremony, they did give Li Jing a lot of face.
Li Jing hadn’t expected such an arrangement when picking up the car; seeing the elaborately decorated scene, he thought that the over three million was worth it, gaining a measure of emotional value.
"Jingzi, is this sports car yours from now on?"
After all the procedures were completed, Huang Jun couldn’t help approaching the brand-new Maserati, gently caressing it, exclaiming with envy, "So cool, this is the kind of big toy for men."
He then immediately turned around, "Brother, mind if I take some photos to post on my social media?"
Li Jing adjusted the seat while familiarizing himself with the controls, "Go ahead, just don’t get me in the shots."
"Don’t worry, I know you don’t like showing your face, I guarantee I won’t snap you!"
Seeing him agree, Huang Jun excitedly ran to the front of the car, pulling out his phone to take selfies with various poses.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling, though also tempted to take photos, restrained herself in the end, quietly standing by, occasionally casting glances at Li Jing.
After Huang Jun finished striking countless poses and picked his favorite photos, he immediately posted them on his social media, saying, "Congratulations to my brother, President Li, on the new car! The Maserati is absolutely amazing!"
As soon as the post went out on social media, unlike his previous muscle photos that received no attention, several comments appeared below immediately.
"Whoa? So cool! Brother Jun, which brother of yours is President Li, a rich second-generation?"
"Huang Jun, who is President Li? Isn’t it Li Jing? He’s so rich now?"
"Is this the latest Maserati GT?? How much did it cost on the road? Awesome!"
Seeing the continuous new message notifications popping up on social media, Huang Jun beamed with joy, even though the car had nothing to do with him, his vanity was greatly satisfied.
As he informed everyone that it was Li Jing who bought the car, they were all extremely surprised.
Soon after, several new messages and friend requests popped up on Li Jing’s phone.
Perplexed, Li Jing opened the chat interface to find they were from people he and Huang Jun both knew.
"Li Jing, how have you been, heard you struck it rich."
"Old classmate, long time no see, heard you’re in Celestial Sea City; I’ll be on a business trip next week, any chance to catch up?"
"President Li, I work in the health insurance sector in Celestial Sea City; let me know if you need anything."
Seeing a few people he hadn’t contacted in years suddenly sending messages to check on him, Li Jing knew it was Huang Jun’s social media post that leaked his news.
Huang Jun, stretching his neck, also saw the messages on Li Jing’s phone and couldn’t help but comment:
"Holy smokes, these guys were nowhere to be seen before; they didn’t help when you were unemployed. Now that they know you have money, they’re all coming to catch up?"
Li Jing shook his head. For those he hadn’t contacted in years, he didn’t plan to reply, merely putting away his phone and saying indifferently:
"I guess that’s what they call poor and unnoticed in the city, but rich with connections in the mountains."
