chapter-267
"Miss Shi Man, were you calling for me? It'll be my pleasure to buy all of these for you. I'll buy you anything you like." After he had finished his shopping, Lin Shuai walked to Qin Feng and Rao Shi Man. When he seemingly overheard Rao Shi Man talking about him, he felt flattered.
Seems like I'm still as good-looking as ever. Even a superstar would discuss me behind my back!
"Well, since Idiot Lin is so rich, we'll let you pick up the tab, then." As Qin Feng spoke, he smiled at Lin Shuai.
Rao Shi Man's expression sank slightly. She accepted Qin Feng's offer to pay for her because she wanted to punish him. But she didn't want Lin Shuai to pay for her. She absolutely had no feeling toward him.
"Fine, fine, put all of Miss Shi Man's items on my tab… Store Manager, help us ring everything up and give me the bill; I'll pay by card!" Without waiting for Rao Shi Man's rejection, Lin Shuai triumphantly pulled out his bank card and handed it to the beautiful store manager.After all, everything in this store was 99% off today and it would cost him 50,000 to 60,000 yuan at most even if they bought it all. Lin Shuai still wasn't daunted by this amount.
The beautiful store manager accepted Lin Shuai's bank card, but she didn't rush over to ring up their purchases. She looked at Qin Feng and awaited for his instructions.
"Today Idiot Lin will pay for everything we're buying. Now, ring everything up and follow what we said just now. If this person advertises your store's offer in his friend group once, then he'll be eligible for 99% off on one of his selections; the rest will be counted as usual. After all, our Idiot Lin is an elite that studied abroad. Money is the only thing that he'll never lack." Qin Feng smiled lightly.
The beautiful store manager soon understood Qin Feng's intention. She'd realized much earlier—Lin Shuai and Qin Feng didn't get along well. So, how could Qin Feng possibly go easy on that idiot?
"Mr. Qin, I'll total the bill now. Don't worry. I'll calculate it thoroughly and not a penny less." The beautiful store manager pushed three shopping carts to the counter to scan the items' codes.
Lin Shuai was left dumbfounded and his brain turned into mush. "Why do Qin Feng's words sound a little bit off?" he thought to himself.
With the help and cooperation of three staffers and three code scanners, they rang up the bill of Qin Feng's group very soon. The beautiful store manager was satisfied with the figure. She took Lin Shuai's bank card and walked to him with a smile on her face."Mister, I'm sorry, your bank card's balance is insufficient. Do you want to use another card, or do you want to pay by cash instead?"
"Insufficient? How could it be not enough? Did you guys do something wrong?" Lin Shuai thought the store manager had completed the transaction and come to return his card. He was getting on his high horse, wanting to boast in front of Qin Feng, and all of a sudden, the store manager said his bank card's balance was insufficient. Lin Shuai was stupefied and felt terrible now.
This bank card had 100,000 yuan deposited on it; how could it be not enough?
"I'm sorry, we've tried the card three times. The balance of the card is really insufficient and our POSS machine has no problem at all," the beautiful store manager replied with a smile.
Lin Shuai's countenance changed drastically. He'd already felt weird about what Qin Feng had said and then he noticed his card balance was insufficient. Now he was nervous and highly strung.
"H-How much is the bill?" Lin Shuai asked as his heart pounded with fear, a gush of bad feeling suddenly flaring there.
"Mister, the total cost is 1,532,080 yuan. Seeing that you're a friend of Mr. Qin, I, as the store manager, have removed 2,080 yuan from the end for you. So the total charge will be 1,530,000 yuan."
One point five three million yuan!
After he heard the numbers from the beautiful store manager, Lin Shuai felt like he'd been struck by a bolt of lightning, followed by endless waves of muffled thunder roaring in his head. He was so frightened that he almost collapsed.
"H-How much did you say? One million five hundred thirty thousand yuan? D-Did you make a mistake somewhere and report one more zero?" Lin Shuai's face was pale white and beads of sweat started to form on his forehead.
Even if the total expense for today was 153,000 yuan, it would still exceed his budget threefold, let alone a 1,530,000 yuan. Are they asking me to sell my kidney overseas?
"Mister, please don't play a joke with us. Since you're a friend of Mr. Qin, I believed that 1,530,000 yuan is just a mere figure for you. How about you try again with another card, or would you like to pay by check instead? It's all up to you." How could the beautiful store manager not see through Lin Shuai's embarrassment? She was certain that Lin Shuai couldn't pay the 1,530,000 yuan. She was just playing along with Qin Feng.
"Please wait for a moment… Didn't you mention that all the items in this store are 99% off? I had a rough figure when I was choosing my stuff. All my items will only cost me 30,000 yuan. Even with Miss Shi Man's items, the most is only 100,000 yuan. Why and how did it become 1,530,000 yuan when you calculated it?"
When Lin Shuai heard the report from store manager, he'd been so shocked by the figure that his brain stopped functioning. Now that he'd calmed down, no matter how many times he calculated the bill, it would never add up to 1,500,000 yuan. It made no sense whatsoever!
"Mister, I think you misunderstood me." The beautiful store manager had received the order from Qin Feng. Now, she explained unhurriedly with a smile on her face, "What I said was—Mr. Qin can enjoy the privilege of 99% off on every item in this store, and Mr. Qin has no limitation on the purchase number.
