“Sure, boss, please have a seat.” Xie Tingfeng led Zhou Chao and the two of them to the lounge area.
Xie Tingfeng was seen taking out a pricing sheet and started writing on it. However, as he wrote, he began making corrections. Zhou Chao didn’t inquire further, guessing that there was likely a calculation error.
At this moment, a middle-aged man, led by Yuan Yuan, approached the group.
“Hello, sir, I’m Yuan Zhen, the sales manager of Oriental Roses!”
Seeing Yuan Zhen extending his right hand, Zhou Chao completely ignored it and just nodded faintly.
Observing Zhou Chao’s reaction, Yuan Zhen awkwardly withdrew his hand, but he still wore a smiling face.
“Boss, Xiao Xie here is our newly recruited employee, and he’s not very experienced in introducing and pricing. This gentleman is our top sales performer. Shall we have her serve you?” Yuan Yuan suggested as she prepared to move towards Xie Tingfeng.
Xie Tingfeng, sweating on his forehead, even his hand shaking slightly as he held the pen, heard Yuan Yuan’s words.
“No worries, I’m not in a hurry. We have plenty of time, right, Lin Wu?”
“Yes, boss,” Lin Wu responded cooperatively.
Seeing that he was being brushed aside, Yuan Zhen still smiled and said, “If you need anything, please feel free to call me anytime, sir.”
As the saying goes, don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Zhou Chao nodded with a smile.
Then Yuan Zhen and Yuan Yuan walked away. Zhou Chao could still faintly hear Yuan Yuan saying, “Brother Zhen, after this is done, ask that Xie Tingfeng to distribute flyers outside for a month. If there are no deals, just fire him!”
“It depends on your performance!” Yuan Zhen responded with a slightly teasing tone.
“Boss, what are you looking at?” Lin Wu appeared by his side without him noticing.
“Just looking around. Why are you so close?”
Lin Wu patted his chest and said, “Hehe, boss, I won’t tell Jiang Li about you secretly looking at girls. Don’t worry!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao’s mind was filled with confusion. Did he really think everyone was like him?
Ignoring Lin Wu’s comment, he turned his attention to Xie Tingfeng, who had been focused on calculating prices.
By now, Xie Tingfeng had lost the initial nervousness. Perhaps after going through a couple of small challenges, he had grown considerably.
After waiting for about ten minutes, six neatly organized pricing sheets were placed in front of Zhou Chao.
Zhou Chao examined the pricing sheets and floor plans. They all looked good, with five of them being on floors above the 20th level, and the prices were reasonable, all under nine million.
“I’ll take all the units on the 20th floor and above.”
“All of them?” Xie Tingfeng couldn’t believe his ears.
Seeing Xie Tingfeng’s astonished expression, Zhou Chao nodded calmly. “Yes, all of them. Go get the contracts, we’ll sign them today.”
Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Xie Tingfeng stood up hurriedly. “Boss, please wait a moment!”
After saying that, he headed towards the manager’s office. After all, he had never signed a contract before, so he needed to seek approval from his superiors.
Soon, Yuan Zhen hurried over with Xie Tingfeng.
“Sir, hello, are you interested in reserving these five units?”
“It’s not a reservation; it’s a purchase. Let’s sign the contract right away, full payment!”
As soon as Yuan Zhen heard it was a full payment, his face lit up with a smile. He quickly summoned a few available salespeople to help prepare the contracts.
“May I know your name, sir?”
“Zhou.”
“Mr. Zhou, may I have your ID, please?” Yuan Zhen said respectfully.
Zhou Chao didn’t reply but turned to Lin Wu on the side and said, “Why are you still standing there? Get your ID out, and also the identity information for Wang Feng, Xiao Wu, and Li Wei.”
“Boss… Is this for us?” Lin Wu widened his eyes, and even Yuan Zhen was surprised by their conversation.
“What kind of family did he come from? He’s giving out houses, and five of them!” Yuan Zhen thought to himself, carefully examining Zhou Chao.
“Of course, or do you think 1 bought them for myself? Don’t waste time; it’s getting late!”
“Boss, I’ll take this opportunity to thank you on behalf of all of us.” Lin Wu stood up excitedly and gave Zhou Chao a deep bow.
“Don’t bother with formalities; I’m not interested.”
Without further delay, Lin Wu took out his ID from his pocket and retrieved the identity information for the others from his phone, handing these details to the salespeople.
The sales team worked quickly, and within five minutes, several contracts were ready. Zhou Chao had Lin Wu sign on behalf of the others.
“Where do I make the payment?”
“Mr. Zhou, please follow me.” Yuan Zhen respectfully led Zhou Chao to a company office.
Zhou Chao was still puzzled when he saw the door being opened, and a middle-aged woman came in with a POS machine.
“Mr. Zhou, our policy is to review the contracts, but to save you time, we’ll handle the payment here.”
“Alright.” Zhou Chao didn’t say much and took out his black card, placing it on the table.
Looking at the black card on the table, even the experienced Yuan Zhen felt a tremor in his heart. After all, for someone as young as Zhou Chao to possess a black card, it indicated the immense power behind him.
“Mr. Zhou, the total cost, including the property price and all other taxes, amounts to 48 million. Can you please confirm?”
“No need to check, just swipe it.” Zhou Chao knew he couldn’t dare to deceive him, as the amount he casually revealed was far beyond what Yuan Zhen could bear.
The finance staff swiftly handled the payment, and in less than a minute, they were done. They left with the POS machine.
“Is everything sorted out?”
“Everything is done!”
“Good!” Zhou Chao got up and started walking towards the exit.
Yuan Zhen and Xie Tingfeng hurriedly followed since Xie Tingfeng was relatively new, and many things were handled by Yuan Zhen.
“Manager Yuan, you don’t need to escort us. You can head back,” Zhou Chao said as they walked out of the sales office.
“No problem, it’s not busy at the sales office anyway. I’ll just take a stroll and get some fresh air!”
Zhou Chao understood his intentions and didn’t pay much attention. He went straight to the Rolls-Royce Phantom.
As he was getting into the car, he turned around and glanced at Yuan Zhen and Xie Tingfeng.
“Manager Yuan, some things belong to whoever they belong to. It’s better not to meddle in certain matters,” Zhou Chao said before getting into the car, not uttering another word to Xie Tingfeng.
After the car departed, Yuan Zhen turned to Xie Tingfeng, patting his shoulder. “You’re quite lucky, kid!”
With that, Yuan Zhen walked back towards the sales office, while Xie Tingfeng stood there, looking lost.
Back at the sales office, Yuan Zhen was immediately surrounded by Yuan Yuan and others.
“Manager, do we have a share in this deal? How should we distribute it?” Yuan Yuan asked excitedly.
“Yeah, Manager, the commission from this deal is worth tens of thousands at the very least. If we each get a share, we can buy designer bags next month.”
“Exactly, I haven’t bought new clothes in ages.”
The female sales team members were already envisioning buying bags and high-end clothing with their shares. However, they failed to notice that Yuan Zhen’s expression was growing darker.
Frustrated, Yuan Zhen exclaimed, “Distribute? What are you talking about? This deal belongs to Xie Tingfeng. You still want a share? Have you no shame?”
The female employees were left stunned, and Yuan Zhen snorted before heading back to his office. They exchanged glances and then dispersed, knowing full well that someone from the wealthy family behind this property purchase had made arrangements. Otherwise, their manager wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
Yuan Yuan looked at Xie Tingfeng as he entered, her eyes twinkling, and she approached him with a cheerful smile.
“Xie Tingfeng, this deal comes with a hefty commission. How about treating us to a meal?”
“Oh, sure!” Xie Tingfeng, who was still dazed, immediately nodded in agreement without thinking.
“That’s a deal! Don’t back out on us later!” Yuan Yuan said with a triumphant grin before heading towards the front desk.
Little did Xie Tingfeng know that after receiving his salary next month, he would be hit with a bill of over a hundred thousand yuan by Yuan Yuan and the others, but that was a story for another time.
Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and Lin Wu had already arrived at the courtyard by the canal.
“Notify Dole that we’ll be flying tomorrow. Have him prepare, and also, ensure the food on the plane is changed regularly. It’s best to have fresh food on the day of the flight,” Zhou Chao instructed before heading inside.
Lin Wu, eager to share the good news with his close friends, quickly took out his phone and messaged in their exclusive group chat, “Boss just bought us a 180-square-meter house in Jingdu, worth 9 million!”
Soon, he received replies from the others.
“Hail to the boss!”
“The boss is amazing!”
“I’m officially a homeowner too!”
