1772 Are You Paying With Card Or Check?
Wang Hui couldn’t help but mock, “If it weren’t for your grandfather, how could she have such ability? I think your grandfather is really biased!”
He Shihui clenched her fists. She hated her grandfather for this, but she had just done something wrong. She had no right to be willful. She could only hold it in for now.
It was not until she saw that the location and size of Su Bei’s jewelry shop were ordinary that she was completely relieved. It turned out that Su Bei was just so-so!
On the day of Su Bei’s opening, she invited Old Master He and Old Madam He to support her.
!!
Of course, the two elders were happy to go.
Wang Hui and He Shihui were also there, so Su Bei invited them politely.
“Okay, let’s go too,” Wang Hui said.
She wanted to see how miserable Su Bei’s jewelry shop was.
He Shihui specially chose an expensive gift.
Wang Hui said, “Why are you giving her such a good gift? Her shop might collapse in two days.”
“It’s a token of my appreciation.” He Shihui didn’t hate Su Bei, but she hated Old Master He’s bias.
However, it could be seen that Old Master He did not spend much effort on Su Bei’s shop this time, so she felt better.
It seemed that Su Bei was just playing around.
Soon, Wang Hui and He Shihui arrived at the shop.
Su Bei was pouring tea for Old Master He and Old Madam He. She was all smiles and in a good mood.
Wang Hui glanced at the small shop and smiled. “Congratulations, Su Bei.”
“Thank you.” Su Bei smiled.
He Shihui handed the gift over. “If you need any help, you can look for me.”
“That’s right. You must look for your cousin,” Wang Hui said. “Your cousin has run many jewelry shops in the past, and her performance was very good. She has good taste. If she gives you some pointers, you’ll definitely benefit greatly.”
“Thank you in advance,” Su Bei replied with a smile.
Wang Hui looked at the shop that didn’t have many customers and said, “Is your publicity not good enough? Why aren’t there a lot of customers?”
She wanted to do good deeds in front of Old Master He, so she said, “Bring something out. I’ll give you my card.”
“Go get a few things for Aunt to see,” Su Bei instructed the sales assistant.
The sales assistant quickly went over to get a few things and placed them in front of Wang Hui.
The emerald color was very good, and the diamonds were extremely eye-catching. The pearls were even more dazzling. It wasn’t like Wang Hui hadn’t seen good things before. But when she saw these, she couldn’t help but admire them.
She didn’t expect Su Bei to be able to get these goods!
Seeing that she liked them, Su Bei was naturally willing to do her grandparents a favor. “You can choose whatever you like. I’ll give you a 20% discount!”
Old Master He and Old Madam He liked seeing them get along well. They were also happy to see Su Bei being so generous.
“Then I won’t stand on ceremony!” Wang Hui was short-sighted. When she saw that the items were good and Su Bei said that she would give her a discount, she immediately started choosing seriously.
Seeing that her mother really liked the jewelry, He Shihui did not stop her. She just let her be.
“Then I’ll choose these three!” Wang Hui quickly made her selection and got someone to get the bill for her.
“The total comes up to ten million yuan.” The sales assistant quickly printed the bill and sent it over.
“H-How much?”
This was the United States, so they naturally used US dollars. Ten million US dollars was not a small sum in any country.
“Ten million. Do you want to swipe your card or use a check?” the sales assistant asked politely.
At that moment, Wang Hui took a deep breath. She had originally thought that the jewelry Su Bei sold in such a small shop would cost tens of thousands or maybe hundreds of thousands of yuan. She did not expect the jewelry to be so expensive!
Ten million USD!
Su Bei looked at her with a smile. “Aunt, thank you so much for supporting me! I can’t repay you, but I’ll treat you to a meal next time!”
She was paying ten million USD while Su Bei was treating her to a meal?
Wang Hui’s heart was bleeding!
She was not Lin Xiruo. Her family was not as rich and powerful as Lin Xiruo’s, and she did not have a husband to rely on. Lin Xiruo still had her own business, but she could not do anything. She relied on He Consortium’s annual dividends to survive. Her daughter would subsidize her spending.
However, how could this compare to what others earned from their careers?
She wanted to say that she didn’t want to buy the jewelry, but she had already said it just now. She couldn’t bring herself to embarrass herself.
Moreover, Old Master He and Old Madam He were still watching.
Su Bei looked at her with a smile and said nothing else. Wang Hui came here early in the morning to cause trouble and even said some unlucky words. Now, Su Bei would show her what it meant to pay the price.
“Why are all the things in your shop so expensive? Are the prices even competitive?” Wang Hui really didn’t want to pay up.
“If there’s someone selling it, then there’s someone buying it. Besides, isn’t your taste quite good? You took a fancy to three things the moment you arrived? This means that these things are liked by rich ladies, right? I believe in your taste. There’s definitely no problem!” Su Bei praised sincerely.
Wang Hui couldn’t continue as she was praised.
She wished that Su Bei would argue with her so that she could say that she wouldn’t be buying the jewelry anymore.
However, Su Bei kept smiling at her. She could not find any excuse.
He Shihui could also see her mother’s embarrassment. She hated her mother’s personality the most. She didn’t think things through at all and always fell into trouble.
But Wang Hui was her mother. What could she do?
“Mom, you already have a lot of jewelry. Why don’t you just buy one as a token of appreciation? It won’t delay Su Bei’s business either,” He Shihui said.
“Cousin, how can you treat Aunt like this?” Without Wang Hui’s permission, Su Bei spoke first. “She’s worked so hard for so many years. So what if she buys some jewelry? Can’t she pay attention to her aesthetics just because she’s old? She used to be a beautiful young woman too, and she wants to buy jewelry now. Besides, Aunt is a customer now that she’s here in my shop. How can you say that she’ll delay my business? I’m overjoyed that Aunt is willing to support me.”
...
These words made it difficult for He Shihui not to fork out money.
Seeing this, Old Master He said, “Shihui, buy the jewelry for your mother. Give me the receipt when the time comes.”
He was planning to reimburse He Shihui.
If it were any other time, He Shihui would definitely accept it with a smile.
However, the situation today was different. She wanted to gain Old Master He’s favor, so how could she let him fork out the money?
She immediately took out her card and smiled. “It’s my responsibility to support Su Bei’s business and be filial to my mother. Grandpa, how can I let you worry? Su Bei, swipe my card.”
Su Bei didn’t take it. She turned sideways and passed the task to the sales assistant.
