Chapter 646: Everything Must Be Demonstrated
"Ms. Shen, all the products you purchased will be carefully packaged and delivered safely and securely to you. Please write down your home address here and the products will be delivered within three working days."
"Can you deliver to different addresses?"
"Of course, you mark your address and the products you want to be delivered, and we will deliver to your designated address."
Shen Ci did as she was told, filling out the information for her aunt's family separately and sending the rest to "Wanjia Denghuo".
Seeing that they had almost finished their lunch, the salesperson couldn't help but ask carefully, "Do you need to eat more? We also provide desserts."
"No, no, we're full. Thank you." Shen Yingying shook her head quickly.
Seeing this, Shen Ci asked him to serve two desserts.
"Ah Ci, you spent so much money on a crystal. I'm terrified just looking at it."
Shen Yingying was still a little unresponsive at this time, but when Aci just paid, she glanced at the amount and was so scared that she gasped.
Chen Ci wiped her mouth, then looked at her aunt and smiled: "Aunt, a good house must be furnished with some high-end things, and you have to get used to it in the future. This is just the beginning."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang. Shen Ci picked it up and heard that someone from the appraisal agency had arrived.
The few of them turned back to the "Lalique" opposite. The manager's expression was very rich and wonderful, because she had just been observing the door of the "Baccarat" opposite. Seeing that Chen Ci and others had not come out for a long time, she went to ask.
As a result, the staff of the other store told her that the beautiful woman had just purchased more than a dozen pieces of crystal and was dining in the VIP room!
Now seeing Shen Ci again, the manager was nervous, embarrassed, and even a little guilty.
With such financial strength, perhaps an item worth more than 40 yuan is really not worth mentioning to her.
"These two are staff members of the NGTC Inspection Center. It's no exaggeration to say that this appraisal agency is the most authoritative in the country. I think your company has no objection to asking them to come for the appraisal?" Chen Ci said to the manager.
The manager took a deep breath and nodded silently.
Seeing this, Shen Ci signaled to the two staff members: "You can start now, thank you for your hard work."
The two staff members were wearing work clothes. They nodded slightly when they heard this and opened the tool box they had pulled with them.
"Scratch identification" is not as complicated as "ingredient identification" and does not take too long. As long as the two staff members agree on the identification results, the accuracy rate can reach more than 98%.
After a series of professional operations including scanning, magnification, and observation, the two whispered a few words to each other and nodded.
The manager and the sales girl looked at them nervously. Even the passing customers and the staff from the Baccarat across the street came over to join in the fun out of curiosity.
"Is it okay?" Shen Ci asked.
After the staff put away the tools, they looked at Chen Ci and said, "The appraisal is complete. The scratches on this crystal are judged to be 'newer'."
"Newer"?
When Shen Yingying and He Bin heard these two words, their hearts suddenly sank. It seemed that the scratch was really made by her accidentally.
The manager and the girl also breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Shen Ci had a calm expression. She had already said that if it was their fault, she would admit it and compensate them.
Then I heard the staff member gasping for breath and explaining, "'Recent' scratches are those that are within seven to fifteen days."
"Seven to fifteen days?"
"Yes, there are different levels of scratch identification. Judging by the characteristics of the scratch on this crystal coral, it should be seven to fifteen days old, so it is not 'new'."
After hearing what he said, the expressions of the two parties exchanged instantly.
Chen Ci also smiled with satisfaction. She knew that this matter could not be easily accepted.
"Aunt, did you hear that? These scratches have nothing to do with you."
Shen Yingying smiled happily, and the pressure in her heart was instantly swept away.
If it was really her who did it, even if Ah Ci could afford to pay for it, she would not just let it go and would definitely keep blaming herself.
"Did you hear that, too?" Chen Ci turned to look at the manager and the salesperson. "It seems your slacking off isn't an isolated incident. You'll have to find the person who caused the scratch. But now, please apologize to my aunt and uncle for what happened just now."
"S-Sorry."
The manager's attitude was acceptable, as he had fully experienced Shen Ci's power and dared not disobey her in the slightest. He immediately bowed his head and apologized sincerely: "On behalf of myself and the company, I apologize to you two for what happened just now. I hope you can understand."
The sales girl was a little slow to react, perhaps because she was young and embarrassed. Her face flushed red as she apologized: "I'm sorry, my attitude was a problem just now. I apologize."
Shen Yingying nodded helplessly, accepting it.
Seeing this, Shen Ci gave up and just looked at the two staff members of the appraisal agency and reminded them: "You should pay the appraisal fee with them. This is what they should bear. You can also issue the appraisal report to them. If they find the culprit, it will be a strong piece of evidence."
After that, Shen Ci didn't say another word, and left with her aunt and uncle without looking back.
"Aci, how do you know that the scratch was not made by your aunt?" He Bin couldn't help but ask after returning to the car.
Shen Yingying also looked over with curiosity.
Hearing this, Chen Ci looked at them helplessly and smiled: "I'm not a god, of course I don't know. But everything needs to be determined through professional research. We can't just take what they say as the truth. It's not a matter of a penny. More than 40 yuan is not a small amount for anyone. How can we just compensate it?"
"Aunt, uncle-in-law, don't panic when you encounter something like this in the future. Think about the cause and effect of the matter and whether the other party is responsible. Just like what happened to me today, even if we have to pay compensation today, they still have to bear a certain amount of responsibility. If you really don't know how to deal with it, please contact me immediately."
He Bin nodded in appreciation: "Aci is still smart."
"Okay, let's not think about this anymore. Now let's take you to buy clothes. The mall is very close to my mom's company. You've never been there, right? I'll take you there after we're done shopping."
"Okay, I wanted to go take a look a few days ago, but your mom said she was busy and asked me to go in a few days."
"Indeed, she is busy with the opening of a branch." At this point, Shen Ci's mind moved, and she turned to look at her aunt and asked, "Aunt, when you recover from your illness, why don't you learn how to do business from my mother? She will definitely open more than one branch. In the future, she wants to cover the entire Longcheng market. Maybe you can help her in the future."
