The female store manager noticed the restlessness of the crowd, and there was a trace of ridicule in her eyes. They opened a store to do business. If the activity was not difficult, wouldn't it be a loss if their parents didn't know them?
"I see that everyone is very enthusiastic. Let's do this. Now we don't need 10 seconds, but 5 seconds. As long as we hold on for 5 seconds, we will be successful!" The female store manager kept encouraging.
In the crowd, Guo Ran stared at Jiang Ning with his eyes. He remembered that when school first started, he was not that tall. He seemed to be about the same height as himself.
She had forgotten when Jiang Ning had grown taller. Although she had grown taller, her figure was still thin, with the characteristic thinness of a young man.
She knew that Jiang Ning's sports performance was very good. Gao Heshuai and his colleagues, who were in the same office, once talked to Jiang Ning and claimed that even if he couldn't study well, it would be a good idea to pursue a career in sports.
But, he is just a teenager after all. The fitness instructor and the construction site uncle just now failed to grab the gold bricks, so Jiang Ning was asked to try. Isn’t it a joke?
Guo Ran has grown up and is no longer the ignorant and naive little girl she used to be. She has a clear understanding of the world and does not think that there are perfect people in the world.
She can accept imperfection.
"Forget it." Guo Ran said, if Jiang Ning steps forward and everyone sees his appearance, it might make everyone laugh!
As his mentor, Guo Ran should stand up and stand in front of him, helping him solve problems and shielding him from wind and rain.
Jiang Ning didn't show off, he remained calm and nodded gently: "Okay."
Seeing his reaction like this, Le Qin's face was filled with regret. It was a pity that she couldn't get a glimpse of the great master, the restorer of ancient martial arts.
"Why catch gold bricks? How great would it be if it was a street challenge?" Le Qin secretly complained.
When they were communicating, the audience's dissatisfaction erupted: "It's funny, what difference does it make if it is changed from 10 seconds to 5 seconds? I can't pick it up or I can't pick it up!"
"Go away!" Someone turned and left.
The female store manager thought to herself: 'If you could afford it, would my store still be open?'
Facing everyone's dissatisfaction, the female store manager put on a smile and continued: "Oh, I understand everyone's enthusiasm. From now on, not only can everyone take the initiative to challenge to catch gold bricks, we will also randomly select people to catch gold bricks.
As long as you are drawn by us, even if you cannot catch the gold bricks, you will still get the acacia beans as a gift from us!"
As she spoke, she showed off a piece of silver jewelry. The so-called acacia beans were two small silver beans tied to a red string. Under the bright sunlight, the silver awakened the genes immersed in human bones.
The female store manager introduced: "It's not of poor quality, it's 999 pure silver!"
As soon as these words came out, the public opinion suddenly subsided. The person who was originally called the most happy person immediately started to catch it when he saw that there was a bargain: "Hey, isn't it just about catching gold bricks? Just have the hands! Choose me to catch it!"
"Sister, I have hands too!" A certain elder brother shouted, these are sterling silver beans, it would be great to take them home for free to your children.
"What do you mean by sister? Isn't she a female college student who just graduated?"
"What's going on? Have I traveled to the Three Kingdoms? How did I see Diao Chan?" an old man shouted.
The righteous and straightforward Le Qin frowned and shouted: "You guys really go too far!"
Guo Ran originally thought that she would use her sharp tongue to educate these people, but Le Qin changed her words and joked: "You will scare my sister!"
Holding it and teasing it, the air became cheerful, and the female store manager’s crow’s feet bloomed when she smiled.
She scanned and selected a little girl of several years old. The little girl looked in disbelief.
The parents behind her quickly pushed her, and the little girl stepped forward ignorantly without grabbing the gold brick.
The female store manager put a red string on her head in front of everyone, and the silver beans on the little girl's tender wrist were particularly eye-catching.
Everyone realized this, and those who had children at home quickly pushed their children to the front. Those who did not have children at home...had no children.
For a time, the crowd was in a state of excitement.
But still no one took the initiative to grab the gold bricks. They knew they couldn't do it and just wanted to win the lottery and get some silver jewelry.
The female store manager searched the crowd, and Jiang Ning activated her spiritual skills to secretly give Guo Ran a halo.
Humans are strange creatures. She noticed Guo Ran at first sight, a beautiful girl, and honestly speaking, she didn't like her.
Because she is old.
However, the female store manager knows that beautiful girls are inherently a resource. She is in charge of many sales. Beautiful sales are a kind of competitiveness in themselves. Their personalities are not too cold, and their performance will generally not be bad.
The female store manager already had the answer in her mind, but they were in marketing, so in order to whet their appetite, they kept scanning the crowd with their eyes.
The people watching held their breath, waiting for the female store manager to call their number.
After a while, she shouted: "That beauty, wearing a white cotton-padded jacket and a black bag!"
At first, Guo Ran didn't realize it was him. Le Qin looked excited and touched her: "Ran Ran, it's you!"
"Ah?" Guo Ran finally understood that she had been chosen.
But, she doesn’t know how to catch her at all?
Le Qin had an idea and asked: "Sister, can I ask our friends to help us catch gold bricks?"
After the words fell, the female store manager also noticed the young man beside them. The female store manager subconsciously prepared to refuse, but she remembered that this girl had called her her sister when the crowd was making noise just now.
The female store manager held the microphone: "As long as this beautiful woman in a white cotton jacket agrees, that's fine!"
"Ran Ran, Ran Ran, please agree!" Le Qin urged!
At this time, many people's eyes were on Guo Ran, waiting for her answer. She no longer hesitated and said directly: "Ah, okay, Jiang Ning, please help me."
Le Qin immediately asked: "Sister, according to your words, if my friend can grab the gold brick, he can also get a reward, right?"
The female store manager couldn't help it and smiled: "Of course."
She didn't expect that the young woman in front of her, who seemed to have a high emotional intelligence, would actually have unrealistic fantasies...
She sighed in her heart that it was great to be young and still be able to daydream.
It’s not like she is young and old and can’t sleep well.
Le Qin pushed Jiang Ning and asked him to come on quickly. She was testing the style of a great master!
Guo Ran was quite speechless. She knew that Le Qin was straightforward and had no bad intentions, but was sometimes impulsive and fickle.
"I will give the silver beans to Jiang Ning when the time comes... Well, it's decided." Guo Ran said, so she felt a little better.
At this time, someone in the audience witnessed their conversation and suddenly laughed and said: "If I have skills, I will definitely catch you!"
"Yes, young people are very powerful now!" someone said
The old man who met Diao Chan as a joke before said cheerfully: "That's not true. When I was young, I grabbed my house with one hand!"
People were joking and venting their dissatisfaction at not being drawn. No one thought that the young man could grab the gold brick.
Just kidding, even those big fitness instructors and migrant workers couldn’t do it!
Five seconds!
Jiang Ning walked closer leisurely and glanced at the gold bricks in front of him. They were indeed genuine gold bricks, and they were trapezoidal with a narrow top and a wide bottom. It was impossible for a person's palm to grasp it to the bottom, making it very difficult to bear force.
Even so, if someone has specialized training and applies magnesium powder, it may be possible.
But the rules of the gold shop require you to wear their gloves, which is really solid.
"Come on, handsome boy!" The female store manager found that he was really handsome. Unfortunately, as a store manager, money is the most important thing.
Jiang Ning put on her gloves.
Even though Guo Ran knew it was a fantasy, she still encouraged Jiang Ning: "Come on!"
Le Qin waited and watched, extremely serious: "Master, you can definitely do it!"
The old man who had spoken many times before saw this and burst into laughter: "Young man, this thing is very heavy!"
He had tried it before and it didn't move at all.
After he finished speaking, Jiang Ning grabbed the gold brick with his left hand and frowned slightly.
"It's not working anymore, I have to give up..." everyone blurted out, because many challengers before just pinched the gold brick, exerted force, released it, waved their hands again, and after completing the process, they left with a smile.
The young man in front of him was also not unexpected.
Smart parents take this opportunity to quietly send their children to the front and prepare to follow them with all their strength.
At this moment, some people are still saying: "It's very heavy, impossible!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Ning frowned and said, "It's indeed quite heavy."
The next second, he caught the gold brick in the air.
"Hahaha, I just said it was very serious... eh?" The old man felt like he was struck by lightning and almost thought his eyes were going dark.
His eyes were straight, and he opened his mouth to talk nonsense: "Tainai, haven't you been dead for thirty years? You don't know that I was watching someone catch gold. I was talking, and I came to see you!"
"
Guo Ran looked at this scene and had a magical feeling.
But the discomfort on the wrist due to Le Qin's hard grip reminded her that this was really happening.
On her face, which was once called a vixen, her beautiful eyes were frozen, leaving only Jiang Ning's thin shoulders.
Lawyer Le Qin was very sensible. She shouted: "Time the clock, time the clock!"
The female store manager was also in shock. The notary next to her raised his voice and shouted: "1, 2, 3..."
Le Qin reminded: "Oops, the timer is late!"
Jiang Ning grabbed the gold brick with one hand, his arm motionless, and he complained a little: "I'm tired from grabbing it."
“4,5,6,…10!”
After counting to this point, Jiang Ning loosened his fingers, and the 50-pound gold brick hit the table with a heavy sound, which also shook the hearts of the onlookers.
The old man who likes skin covered his heart, as if he had seen a ghost, and the skin could not come out.
The scene was even more suffocating.
Jiang Ning took off his gloves, took out a wet wipe, and wiped his hands with gentle and elegant movements. His tone was light and airy: "Not to mention, it is indeed a bit difficult."
Guo Ran stared at Jiang Ning's hand intently. It was a very beautiful hand, as long as jade, with clear joints, beautiful, but not girly.
She knew even more clearly how terrifying the power contained in this hand was.
A ridiculous thought came to Guo Ran's mind: 'To grab 50 pounds so easily, doesn't it mean that he can lift me up with one hand?'
…
In the brief shock, people finally understood what happened.
This boy, who is not strong and even weak, actually grabbed the gold brick and completed the challenge!
Le Qin started to ask for the account: "Sister, we have done it, can we choose gold jewelry at will?"
The female store manager recovered from her shock and moved her mouth, trying to find an excuse.
Before she could speak, the next second, Le Qin took out her lawyer's practicing certificate and her mobile phone: "Sister, I recorded it. I will do what I said!"
The female store manager was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a smile. She was extremely enthusiastic: "How can we refuse to pay? We are a regular store!"
She was secretly frightened. At that time, her superiors suggested that she use gold bricks worth several million as a prize. She was cautious and refused. Otherwise, the gold bricks given out today would have been gold bricks!
She raised her voice: "Everyone has seen it, we are definitely not fooling people, there are people who can do it!"
The onlookers were excited. Damn it, someone can really pick it up!
The old man from before came up and wanted to take a look at Jiang Ning's arm. Jiang Ning remembered this unruly old man, and he joked: "I can't compare with you in my ability. You were able to seize the house when you were young!"
The old man smiled awkwardly: "You kid!"
The female store manager vacated her position and gestured to the counter behind her. She said, "Young man, you can choose any of the gold jewelry in this counter."
Le Qin took Guo Ran's hand. She was so excited that she was prostituted for gold. Who can resist this temptation?
She told: "Choose something heavy, something heavy! A big gold bracelet!"
Because she was so excited, Le Qin even forgot to praise Jiang Ning's bravery. Her eyes were entirely on gold, which is extremely attractive to humans.
After seeing the jewelry in the glass cabinet, Le Qin looked disappointed. In her eyes, there were only rings, bracelets, necklaces, etc., but no large 80g gold bracelet.
Jiang Ning turned her face and asked, "Sister Guo, which one do you like?"
Guo Ran was still in a daze, "Ah, me?"
Jiang Ning looked at her dazed look, which was rare, and he joked: "Otherwise, who else would be there?"
Le Qin was speechless. Is she not a human?
However, she had no words to disturb the two of them.
Guo Ran lowered her head and looked at the glass cabinet. The shining gold jewelry dazzled her: "I don't know."
Jiang Ning: "In that case."
He stretched out his hand and knocked on the glass cabinet: "This is it."
The female clerk in charge of giving out prizes immediately took out the pair of gold earrings and introduced:
"This is our store's new earring. It's called Butterfly Tassel. It uses light sand technology. Does it look like a dancing butterfly every time it moves? The net weight is 999 pure gold, which is 5.9 grams. The price is only... Oh, it's free for you."
The female shop assistant lamented their good luck, "These earrings are so exquisite. The labor cost alone is more than 500."
Jiang Ning asked: "Do you like it?"
Guo Ran didn't answer, but his eyes reflected everything.
Jiang Ning made a final decision: "Well, let's do it."
The female clerk picked up the gold earrings and led them to the cashier to print out the invoice.
While waiting, Le Qin, who was good at observing people's emotions, gave Jiang Ning a "you are awesome" look, and she stepped aside to look at the big gold bracelet.
Guo Ran opened his mouth, but stopped talking, and still said: "It's too precious."
Jiang Ning smiled freely and said in a clear voice: "A gift for you."
Guo Ran's eyes were complicated, and she said: "No need... you coming today is the best gift."
