Chapter 42: Qin Baobao
"Then you have to be careful. Safety is the most important thing, okay?" Jiang Xiaomei looked at Zhao Xiaofei and instructed.
"I know! Health is the capital of revolution! I will definitely come back safely! Don't worry!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"I'll feel at ease if this is over soon. I hope you won't take risks again." Jiang Xiaomei has recently been investigating the situation in northern Myanmar. Honestly, it's a real mess there, especially in the mountainous areas. Not only is it chaotic, but the natural environment is also poor.
"Okay! I'll be leaving first!" Zhao Xiaofei said, and hurried downstairs to drive away. Jiang Xiaomei felt that Zhao Xiaofei was a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
Along the way, Zhao Xiaofei called his mother Liu Aiping and told her that he would be away on business for a few months. He asked him not to worry and asked her to visit Jiang Xiaomei at the villa occasionally.
Liu Aiping said, "Okay! No problem! Now that I'm retired, I don't have any problems. Don't hire a nanny to clean up the villa. I'll do it for you."
"Mom! The villa is too big for you to clean up! Don't clean it up! Xiaomei will tell me later that you help her clean up the villa, and you can't live with us anymore!" Zhao Xiaofei said.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! I know you feel sorry for your mom! Okay! I'll listen to you! I'll be there right away!" After hanging up the phone, Liu Aiping started packing up, preparing to spend a few months at her youngest son's house.
Zhao Xiaofei hung up the phone and hurried to the mall next to his company. He first went to Chow Tai Seng and picked out some traditional Chinese jewelry: two 999 gold blue phoenix hairpins, five 999 gold openwork bat bracelets, five 999 gold openwork phoenix bracelets, and ten 999 gold bars, each weighing 500 grams, engraved with the words "good luck and happiness, and a long life together."
"That's all! How much is it? Pay by card!" Zhao Xiaofei took out his card and handed it to the saleswoman. The girl's hands were shaking with excitement as she wrote the receipt.
The gold bars alone cost over 2.3 million yuan. The gold bracelets cost 1.8 million yuan, and the phoenix hairpins cost 200,000 yuan. Zhao Xiaofei thought to himself, these things definitely didn't exist in the Ming Dynasty. They didn't have gold of such high purity. What a bright color! I bet even Empress Zhou would be blinded by it.
"Sir! Your card!" The saleswoman handed the card to Zhao Xiaofei.
Taking the card, Zhao Xiaofei said to the salesgirl, "Open all of them and put them on the table. Let me see." Zhao Xiaofei's hangman syndrome kicked in. He wanted to see if putting all these things together would create a shocking visual effect.
The saleswoman immediately did as she was told and arranged the gold jewelry in a circle, attracting many passers-by to look at it. To be honest, Zhao Xiaofei felt a little dizzy when he saw all these in front of him.
He went up and looked at each one carefully. At this moment, a girl's voice behind him asked, "Is this Mr. Zhao?"
Zhao Xiaofei turned around and found a beautiful girl greeting him. He seemed to have seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't remember clearly. He asked, "Who are you, girl? Do you remember her? Sorry!"
"Excuse me, Mr. Zhao. A few days ago in the elevator..." the girl was a little embarrassed.
Zhao Xiaofei remembered and said, "Oh! I remember that day when the heel of the shoe got stuck in the elevator door."
As soon as Zhao Xiaofei finished speaking, the girl's face flushed. She said awkwardly, "Boss Zhao has a really good memory!" She thought to herself, "It's fine if you just remember it. Why are you saying it in front of others? How did you become a boss?"
"Then how do you know about me? We didn't say anything that day?" Zhao Xiaofei said.
"I am a new employee of your company. I went to the company for an interview that day. After the interview, I went shopping in the mall and ran into you!" said the girl.
"So that's it! What's your name?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"My name is Qin Baobao! I'm your company's sales consultant!" Qin Baobao said.
Zhao Xiaofei couldn't help laughing when he heard the name. "Your parents really treasure you, considering this name as a big name!" Seeing Qin Baobao was a little embarrassed, he quickly stopped laughing and said, "I'm sorry! I..."
"It's okay! I'm used to it. Many people want to laugh when they hear my name!" Qin Baobao said.
"Then aren't you going to work today?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"Boss Zhao! Today is Sunday, the company is closed!" Qin Baobao said. What he meant was that I didn't come out to play during working hours.
"Oh! Sorry, I'm so confused." Zhao Xiaofei said. He thought to himself, it's been a while since the Ming Dynasty, I'm almost confused and have no idea of what day of the week it is.
"No! Mr. Zhao is too busy, unlike us workers!" said Qin Baobao.
Zhao Xiaofei thought to himself, who recruited this girl? The little girl is quite good at talking, she can be trained well. At this time, the saleswoman came over and asked, "Sir, are all these golds wrapped up?"
"Wrap them all! Wrap them with red paper, that Chinese red. It looks festive!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
Qin Baobao then asked, "Did Mr. Zhao buy this for Mr. Jiang? Congratulations!"
"No! I bought this for a friend. My friend's daughter is getting married. I just want to give her a gift as a token of my appreciation!" Zhao Xiaofei lied.
Qin Baobao was a little upset when she heard this. A token of appreciation? Giving so much gold to a friend's daughter for her wedding was incomprehensible. This world of the rich. It must cost at least 3 million, right? She said, "I'm sorry, I thought you and Mr. Jiang were getting married! Everyone in the company said you and Mr. Jiang were getting married soon, so I thought you were buying it for him."
"It's almost time! Probably after the Spring Festival! I'll definitely come then!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Of course, of course!" Qin Baobao thought to himself, I won't go. It requires a gift, and I can't afford it.
After a while, the salesperson packed up the items and asked, "Sir, we'll send someone down with you and deliver them to your home."
