Chapter 319 - Dreams Come True
“I can offer you a special discount.”
“Only 5000 RMB for an entire year. That's not too pricey, is it?”
“You're quite the negotiator. How does 4000 RMB for the year sound?”
“Do you still find that expensive? What about 3000 RMB for the year?”
“I can't reduce the price any further, otherwise our club will lose its profit margin. The absolute lowest I can go is 2000 RMB for the year!”
“Still not convinced? What if I throw in an additional 100 private training sessions for free?”
“Isn't that a good deal? Don't push your luck.”
Su Ming listened and sighed to himself.
He hadn't uttered a single word throughout the entire exchange. How could he be haggling?
Seeing that Su Ming remained unaffected, the young salesman sighed as well.
“Where do you work? What's your profession? Is your company hiring?”
Su Ming was taken aback by the sudden shift in conversation.
Sales tactics had become quite distinctive. Salespeople would build rapport with potential customers through casual conversation before pitching their products.
Customers who were less confrontational might feel too awkward to decline the offer, often ending up purchasing out of sheer politeness.
Even if the salesman targeted ten customers and only one made a purchase, it was still a win for him.
The young man had been trailing Su Ming for 50 meters. Just one more turn and they would lose sight of the club's entrance.
Yet, he persisted, seemingly determined to follow Su Ming until he agreed to sign up for a membership.
“Don't tell me you find me annoying. I'm starting to annoy myself.”
Su Ming had remained silent the whole time.
But that did nothing to deter the young man's endless prattle.
Su Ming paused, pondering the situation.
Was this some novel sales strategy?
A woman's voice came through from the other end: “Your father bought you a piece of land. When can you come to see it?”
“What?”
The young man was taken aback.
Su Ming was equally surprised.
His dream had come true!
Tears sprang to the young man's eyes.
He was so moved that his hands shook.
He wasn't just daydreaming after all!
“Mom, hold on, I need to make a call!”
He ended the call.
Then he flipped through his contacts and dialed a number.
“What's the matter?”
An authoritative voice answered.
“Jerk! I've been wanting to tell you, I've despised you for a long time. I'm quitting, effective immediately!”
With that, he hung up.
The thrill of wealth was exhilarating!
He imagined his boss, who squeezed every last drop of work from his employees, would be seething with anger.
The thought alone made him want to chuckle.
He then called his mother back.
“Mom, thank you for everything you've done for me over the years. I'm deeply moved. Rest assured, I won't let you down!”
Tears streamed down his face as he spoke.
“Why are you crying? Your father simply bought you a piece of land.”
A voice tinged with confusion came from the other end. “It's not a big deal. The land isn't worth much. Your dad intended it as a birthday gift for you.”
Hearing this, he was even more touched and burst into tears.
