Chapter 37 Jindu Mall
As the largest comprehensive shopping place in Changli, Jindu Mall is indeed extraordinary. It can’t help but look extraordinary on the outside, and the decoration inside reflects the luxury beyond this era. The ground is bright with water-brushed stone floors, which can be seen by people. Although it is daytime, the light of several rows of fluorescent lights on the ceiling still brightly illuminates the entire mall. The rows of neat glass counters are neat and bright, without the chaotic feeling of Jieshi Market. Although there are many people coming and going, there is no noisy sound, which makes people feel very comfortable.
When Lu Wei saw the counter buying electronic products on the east side of the first floor, he moved his heart and pulled Kang Xiaoling toward him.
Most of the students are visiting here, and most of them are just shopping and not buying styles. Students wearing various school uniforms or sportswear look at the new walkman and game consoles on the counter, and more of them pick up tapes at the counter selling tapes.
Lu Wei took Kang Xiaoling's hand and came to the counter selling mobile phones. Mobile phones in this era are still rare things. In the big mall, the mobile phone counter only occupies a small corner, and it is not as lively as other counters. There are only two or three well-dressed middle-aged people asking the salesperson what they are there.
"Advisor, why are you bringing me here for?" Kang Xiaoling asked in confusion.
Lu Wei smiled and said, "I'll take a look at it casually." As he said that, he walked straight to the counter and started looking.
To be honest, there is really nothing that Lu Wei can see at this time. The rustic shape is so simple that it can't do anything except call. The high price is destined to be a luxury at this time. However, since we have come to this era, don't ask too much. Lu Wei only wants to buy two mobile phones to facilitate contact with Xiaoling. It's a bit ugly.
Lu Wei looked carefully and tried to select the ones he liked from these dozen ancient mobile phones, Motorola, Sony Sokt, and Nokia. After looking at it, there were only about ten models of these three brands. Lu Wei chose for a long time and finally fixed his eyes on a Nokia machine. He pointed to the counter and said, "Please take out this phone and show it to me."
After Lu Wei finished speaking, he waited for the salesperson to take out his phone. Unexpectedly, after a while, the salesperson did not make any noise. Lu Wei thought his voice was low, so he couldn't help but raise his head and raise his voice to the salesperson and said, "Hello, please help me take out this Nokia phone and take a look."
The elder sister responded now, but she looked impatient and said, "This machine is very expensive. If you don't buy it, you can't just watch it."
Lu Wei looked at the salesperson: a fat round face, a shawl that was as hot as pig's hair scalded by boiling water. He had thick makeup on his face, but he could not cover up the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and his lips were red as if he was about to drip bleeding. Lu Wei felt that this person was not as good as the 35D person in Jieshi Market, and looked like menopause syndrome.
Lu Wei said slowly, "I'll repeat it again and take out this phone and show it to me!" There was already a faint sign of anger in his voice. Lu Wei didn't like such a guy who looked down on others before he was reborn.
"Forget it, apprentice, let's go and take a look elsewhere." Kang Xiaoling hurriedly saw the unhappiness on Lu Wei's face.
"Oh! A poor student also came here and shouted at me. You didn't look at this place! I told you, hurry up and play wherever you should play, don't make trouble with me here." The salesperson saw that Lu Wei's side showed signs of showing weakness, and couldn't help but sarcastically sarcastically, and became increasingly reluctant to give in.
"What's going on?" Hearing the sound at the counter, a man in a suit walked out of the office behind.
"Manager Zhang, a student who made trouble came here. He didn't buy a mobile phone but insisted that I show it to him. I was afraid that he would break it, so he was telling him." When the salesperson saw the man in the suit, his attitude changed by 180 degrees, and he lowered his eyebrows and said with a pleasing look.
"It's Manager Zhang, I want to ask, are the employees of Jindu Mall all of this quality? My girlfriend and I originally thought of buying a mobile phone here, but the aunt didn't even let us see it. She even spoke ill of each other, saying that we are poor students. Is this how your mall treats customers? It's so disappointing. If you can't give me a satisfactory reply, I will immediately complain to the relevant departments for your bad behavior." Lu Wei said, and his tone gradually became cold.
Manager Zhang felt a sudden strife after hearing Lu Wei's words. He never expected that a student could say such words. Looking at Lu Wei's expression when he spoke, Manager Zhang did not doubt that Lu Wei was not joking, but that he could do such a thing. If Lu Wei really complained, he might not even be able to escape, but his year-end bonus for his supervisor would have to be ruined. Thinking of this, he yelled at the salesperson with a disdainful look: "Xiao Wang, what are you doing? How can you be this attitude towards the guests! You just don't listen to you many times. Now go back and write a deep inspection immediately. These two guests will be received by me personally. There is no matter for you here. You can leave."
The salesperson heard Lu Wei say "Auntie" and was about to curse, but before he could say anything, he was scolded by Manager Zhang. He was so scared that he didn't dare to let out. He walked out of the counter in shame. When he passed by Lu Wei, he glanced at Lu Wei's cold gaze and felt a sense of timidity in his heart. He wanted to curse in a low voice, but he swallowed the words he said and quickly walked out of the mall.
"Haha, don't mind the two classmates. I will definitely criticize and educate her after I go back. It's so inappropriate. By the way, I don't know which mobile phone the two classmates want to see." The manager asked with a smile.
Seeing Manager Zhang's attitude, Lu Wei was not at all easy to get angry, so he had to say, "Since Manager Zhang said that, I won't say anything anymore. Let's just let this matter go."
"The younger classmate is indeed a person with higher education. His quality is high. Haha, you can choose whatever you want. No matter which one you choose, I will give you 10% off today." Manager Zhang was also very happy when he heard Lu Wei say he would not pursue the matter.
"Okay, take out this Nokia 6110 and take a look." Lu Wei pointed to a phone that looked like it was barely visible.
"Okay, my little classmate has such a good vision. This phone is a new style released last year. It not only supports Chinese, but also has a built-in snake-eating game, which is most suitable for students to use." As he said that, Manager Zhang reached out and took out a gray-shelled phone from the counter.
Lu Wei held it in his hand and looked at it. The ancient shape and small black and white screen were awkward no matter how you look. However, compared to the others, this one is already good. Forget it, as long as you can call. Lu Wei didn't turn on the computer to try it. He knew that although the phone looked a bit ugly at this time, there was absolutely no problem with the quality, especially the licensed goods sold in this big mall (author: It seems that there is no parallel product yet).
"How much does this mobile phone cost?" Lu Wei said as he played with the phone in his hand.
"2,000 yuan, 1800 yuan after the price is 100 yuan," said Manager Zhang. Seeing that Lu Wei really wanted to buy it, he couldn't help but become a little curious. You know, even ordinary bosses are reluctant to buy it now, let alone the working class, which is a three or four month salary.
"1,800 yuan, it's not expensive. Manager Zhang, help me get two new ones." Lu Wei said casually, as if he was buying cabbage.
"Two, two units?" Even though Manager Zhang was prepared, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide. It was about 4,000 yuan, almost worth half a year's salary.
When Kang Xiaoling heard that Lu Wei wanted to buy two units, he was anxious and hurriedly said, "Advisor, why are you buying two units? This thing is quite expensive."
Lu Wei smiled and pinched the little hand in his hand and said, "Of course I buy two, you will be the one you will have. Otherwise, who do you think I will buy one by myself? With this thing, you can call me when you miss me in the evening. How convenient is it?"
"Stir, who misses you?" Kang Xiaoling gave Lu Wei a blank look and said unhappyly.
Manager Zhang, who reported it, said happily: "Your boyfriend is so considerate to you. Wait, I'll go to the warehouse to get the goods for you immediately!" He said, and turned around and left.
"Hey, apprentice, you really have to buy it, otherwise you can buy one." Although he had already established a relationship with Lu Wei, Kang Xiaoling could not accept such a valuable thing at once.
"Okay, master, do you still want to separate from each other with me? Besides, I'm going to be angry." Lu Wei gently put his waist on Xiaoling's waist and pretended to be angry.
Feeling that Lu Wei cares for him, Kang Xiaoling felt a little sweet in his heart, so he stopped insisting.
After a while, Manager Zhang took two unpacked boxes and walked over. He put the box on the counter, skillfully opened the packaging, took out the machine and installed the battery to try it. He turned on the machine and said, "Come on, try it carefully to see if there is any problem."
Lu Wei took the phone and operated it casually for a few seconds. He felt that there was no problem and said, "There is no problem with the machine, but unfortunately there is no card. I want to try the call effect."
"No problem, no problem. Of course, we sell mobile phone cards. I just happened to have two couple accounts in my hand. Do you see if you are satisfied?" As he said that, Manager Zhang took out two unused mobile phone cards from under the counter.
Lu Wei looked at it and was very satisfied with the number. The two numbers were only one difference in the last digit, and it was very easy to remember. After installing the card, he tried the call and felt it was very clear. He said satisfied: "Okay, thank you, Manager Zhang, I chose such a good number for us. There is no problem with the phone. You can issue an invoice."
Manager Zhang issued the invoice neatly. Lu Wei took the invoice and paid 4,000 yuan (two cards 200 yuan) to Manager Zhang. Although he knew that Lu Wei wanted to buy two mobile phones, he saw Lu Wei taking out so much money from his pocket casually, Manager Zhang was still a little confused and said in his heart: "Why are students now so rich? They really can't look like them."
After paying the money, Lu Wei saved the numbers of the two mobile phones together, took one for Kang Xiaoling, and briefly told her how to use it, so he left the mobile phone counter. Manager Zhang was still greeting him enthusiastically: "Little classmate, come here if you need anything, brother will give you a discount!"
"Okay, thank you." Lu Wei said, pulling Kang Xiaoling's hand and leaving the mobile phone counter.
