"On what grounds?"
Chen Dong smiled coldly, slapped the thick wad of money in his hand, making a "slap slap slap" sound.
"Because I'm richer than you!"
Upon hearing this, the woman's eyes reddened.
She never imagined that this group of country bumpkins would suddenly transform into wealthy people.
They even forced her to resign in front of so many people.
Just when she was at a loss, suddenly, her eyes lit up.
A blond man slowly walked towards her from the crowd.
The man's name is David. He is the manager of this brand store and also the backer of the heavily made-up woman.
In later generations, David would have been given the additional titles of President of the China Region or Manager of the China Branch.
People like David were entrusted with important responsibilities by the company and were among the first foreigners to enter the emerging Chinese market.
Typically based at company headquarters, they are highly trusted and often have considerable autonomy, responsible for helping the company gain recognition, grow stronger, and expand its market.
After arriving, he discovered that the people here were foolish and had too much money.
The more aloof and indifferent they appear, the more attention they attract.
In any case, the company headquarters only cares about the results and never cares about the process.
Therefore, he turned a blind eye to the arrogance of the sales staff, and even welcomed it.
Otherwise, a woman alone wouldn't be able to control him.
David knew that Chen Dong and his group had entered the store. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened, and he didn't care.
It wasn't until Chen Dong scattered a stack of banknotes into the air and saw more and more people gathering at the door that he realized that Chen Dong was somewhat different from the customers he had encountered before.
Therefore, he had to step in.
The moment she saw David, the woman ran to him in her high heels and cried out.
“Darling, it’s him. This guy is here to cause trouble and is forcing me to resign, or else I’ll have to bear the consequences.”
"Shit, shut up!"
David looked rather displeased when a woman called him "darling" in front of so many people.
I've never seen such a stupid woman!
Exposing their relationship is practically telling everyone that they're in cahoots.
How can he get out of his current situation?
David glared at the woman, who shuddered and realized she had said the wrong thing. She stood cautiously beside David.
She had already decided that she would use every trick in the book to serve this man well that night.
David was furious at the stares of everyone, but on the surface, he still pretended to admit his mistake and said in broken Chinese.
"I'm sorry, sir. It was one of my employees who offended you. On behalf of all the employees, I apologize to you and hope to receive your forgiveness."
As he spoke, he bowed to Chen Dong.
In his view, this was not just an apology, but a great opportunity for publicity.
As long as they are given enough face, they will swallow their pride and bear it even if they know they are at a disadvantage.
"Wow, even foreigners have come out to apologize. I think we should just let this go."
"Why should a grown man make things difficult for a woman?"
"......"
really.
After David bowed and apologized, many people began to act as peacemakers, advising Chen Dong to let it go, saying it was a small matter and there was no need to make things difficult for a woman.
David witnessed this scene, and a fleeting look of smugness flashed in his eyes.
He didn't have time to be smug for long.
Chen Dong, who had been silent, spoke up.
However, his voice was as piercing as the Siberian wind, sending chills down one's spine.
"Since you want to be the one to stick your neck out, then fine, make her apologize to all of us and fire her, and we'll call it even. Otherwise, she'll have to bear the consequences."
Are you threatening me?
As soon as Chen Dong finished speaking, David's face turned cold.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
However, David calmed down when he thought about his status as a foreigner.
In 1990, the country urgently needed foreign investment to develop its economy.
The intention was good, but due to some people's misconceptions, it gives the impression that outsiders are better at chanting scriptures.
David wasn't the only one with this thought; the onlookers shared the same idea.
This young man is going to suffer!
"That's right!"
Chen Dong nodded, his tone resolute.
"I'm threatening you!"
As he spoke, he turned his head and gave instructions to Jiang Fei and the others.
"Give me the money."
"Okay, Dong-ge!"
Without any hesitation, the group quickly pulled out stacks of cash from their pockets, totaling over ten thousand yuan.
This money, totaling 1.54 million, came from the sale of treasury bonds by several people in Mingzhu City.
Of that, 1.4 million was issued as a cash check.
The remaining tens of thousands of yuan were exchanged for four 100-yuan banknotes of the Four Great Men after Chen Dong's persistent pleading.
Tens of thousands of dollars were piled up at Chen Dong's feet, and no one understood what he was going to do.
But what Chen Dong said next almost caused David's heart to stop.
“I’ll give you one minute to think about it. If you don’t agree, I will use this money to publish your brand’s ugly behavior in the newspaper.”
"Not just in China, I want the whole world to see that if I don't have enough money, I still have checks."
As he spoke, Chen Dong took out the check again and waved it in front of David.
The string of zeros above was almost blinding to him.
He believed that Chen Dong was not joking.
David's expression was extremely complicated.
