Chapter 523: Buying gifts
It turned out that I was approached about this matter, and I suddenly felt a little speechless.
I sighed and said, "Those people all participated in the live broadcast the night before yesterday, and you didn't participate."
"Then I'm not a member of the company? And I'm also a member of your internet celebrity business department! I've also found so many potential people for you on the platform."
I sneered and said, "Don't say that. Apart from the semi-permanent look on their faces, what other characteristics do the people you are looking for have?"
Fu Zhiqiang said unconvinced: "Isn't it popular now? As long as it looks good, that's it."
"What I want is someone with talent and real potential, do you understand?"
"Does that mean if I find such a person, you can give me a bonus?"
I smiled helplessly and said, "Are you just looking for money? I just lent you 20,000 yuan, don't tell me it's gone again."
"Hey, of course, I just feel unbalanced. They all have a bonus of two thousand yuan, but I don't have one."
"You fart, only those who participated in the live broadcast can forget it. I am too lazy to argue with you. I will give you another chance. If you can find me someone with potential, I will give you a reward."
"Okay, this is what you said, I will start looking for it now."
I hung up the phone because I really didn't want to talk to him anymore. I only regretted bringing him from Chongqing to Chengdu.
But there's no point in regretting it. The agreement is there, and I can't break it at any time.
My originally good mood was ruined by Fu Zhiqiang. I seemed to be having insomnia again, so I took out my phone and played Douyin.
I also tried to find one or two new people with development potential to join the company, but it was really hard to find such people, and some people were not willing to join the company at all.
There is no other reason than that our company is not well-known yet. As long as our company ranks high in the domestic industry, we won't have to worry about this.
But I think hurry up, we will have a place soon.
As I was scrolling, I suddenly came across a video about the New Year, and then I realized that today is already the 21st of the twelfth lunar month.
I remember that Li Feng’s wedding is on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, two days away.
Time flies so fast!
In the blink of an eye, Li Feng is about to get married, and even Ye Maochun has confirmed that he is in love with Jiang Qian.
But what about yourself?
Still alone! How ridiculous
After tossing and turning several times, I finally fell asleep and had a dreamless night.
When I woke up the next day, Sun Xiaojie had already gone to the theater to sign the contract. I sent her a message and asked her what time the flight was.
She told me it was eleven o'clock and asked me to go directly to the airport to wait for her.
Since there was still so much time, I didn't panic. I went downstairs to have breakfast, and then walked around the neighborhood to see if there were any specialties to buy back.
After asking the hotel staff, they told me that there is an embroidery shop not far in front, and the embroidery there is said to be among the best in Beijing.
Beijing embroidery can be regarded as a specialty of old Beijing.
I immediately went to the embroidery shop and browsed around. I fell in love with a Tang suit with a mandarin duck pattern embroidered on it.
I fell in love with it at first sight. It’s a beautiful piece of clothing. The color is very comfortable and gives people a literary and artistic feel.
Just when I asked about the price, I was immediately shocked!
Such a Tang suit cost 1,800 yuan. I was stunned on the spot.
But I really like this dress, and I plan to buy it for Li Feng as a wedding gift for them.
But it’s a bit outrageous to give one as a gift, at least it’s one for each person.
After thinking about it, I continued to walk around the store, and then asked the boss if there were any similar women's clothing?
The boss recommended several outfits to me, and they all looked pretty good. I spotted a blue dress in the Republican style.
So beautiful! So beautiful!
But when someone gets married, giving them this color doesn’t seem very flattering.
Fortunately, there are gold ones, but the embroidery patterns are a bit fancy, and this kind of gold cheongsam-type dress generally requires a bit of temperament to be able to pull it off.
After asking about the price, I was dumbfounded again!
This golden short cheongsam is actually 3,700 yuan, and the cyan dress is also 3,600 yuan.
I immediately said to the boss: "Boss, I want these three items, can you give me less?"
Seeing the boss's hesitation, I added, "I'm on a business trip to Beijing. I heard that your embroidery here is very good. I happen to have a friend who is getting married soon. I want to buy two clothes for them as wedding gifts."
The boss was stunned for a moment, seeming to be thinking, and then said to me after a while: "Let's do this! If you pick another item, I'll give you a 20% discount."
"Boss, it's no use asking for so much! I've already chosen three items. Just give me a discount. I finally came to Beijing."
The boss also said helplessly: "Brother, we really can't bargain here. I'm giving you a 20% discount, which is considered a friendly price. You can pick another one, and then I'll give you a 25% discount. Is this the head office?"
I thought about it and said, "Are you choosing randomly?"
The boss sneered and said: "Of course not. If you choose one that costs tens of thousands, I will be at a loss."
After a pause, he pointed to the row of clothes in front of me and said, "The row in front of you and the men's clothes you just selected are all discounted."
"Okay, thank you very much, boss."
After a short pause, I said again: "Does that mean if I choose five items, I can get a 30% discount?"
The boss was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Young man, you are a master at bargaining!"
I also smiled and replied: "I finally came to Beijing, so I wanted to bring some gifts to my friends. After thinking about it, I decided that I would wear the most suitable ones."
"But do you know their sizes?"
The boss's words confused me. After a moment of silence, I said, "Let me ask."
So I took out my mobile phone and called Li Feng first.
After he got through, I asked him: "Ah Feng, what size does your wife wear?"
Li Feng seemed to feel a little strange and asked me: "Brother Feng, why are you asking this?"
"It's okay, I'll just ask."
Li Feng didn't ask any more questions and said: "She is 160cm tall and weighs 97kg. I usually buy clothes for her in size M."
"Oh, okay, thanks! You go ahead and get in touch. We'll contact you later."
After finishing the call with Li Feng, I called Huang Li and Jiang Qian respectively and asked about their sizes. Huang Li even told me their measurements.
There is no need to ask Sun Xiaojie, I know her size.
Including Li Feng, if I can wear it, he can wear it.
So, I continued to pick it up, and the boss admitted that he would give me a 30% discount.
After choosing for a while, I chose a linen-colored full-skirt and a white stand-collar dress.
The lines of the two skirts are very elegantly designed, and the embroidery patterns are also very beautiful.
After asking the boss to pack them, he calculated the price. The original price of the four pieces was 16,500 yuan. After a 30% discount, the price was 11,550 yuan.
Although it is far beyond my budget, it is really not a loss. We can sell such clothes for more than 20,000 yuan, right?
The boss knew that I was giving them to friends, so he specifically asked me which two items were, and then found a beautiful gift box for me to put in them.
The boss was very nice and before leaving I said I would come back next time.
And I also gave him a business card and told him that our company does live broadcasts of goods. If you need anything, please contact me.
After returning to the hotel, I packed up, checked out and took a taxi to the airport.
