Chapter 146 Love of Vanity
Xiaofang's performance this month has not met the target, so she lost her base salary and bonus. She got nothing, and worked for a month in vain.
She blamed everything on Wang Yan, saying that it was Wang Yan who instigated her to beat Xia Qianqian.
Xiaofang didn't expect that Xia Qianqian, this country bumpkin, was actually the woman of their boss. She regretted beating Xia Qianqian.
Xiaofang remembered that Wang Yan asked her to pack some clothes and she had to pay for them. As long as she achieved the performance target for this month, she would get her salary.
Xiaofang pulled Wang Yan and asked her to pay the bill.
Wang Yan was shocked. How could she afford the money to pay?
"I didn't ask for those clothes. You packed them yourself. What does it have to do with me?"
"You said you wanted all the clothes that woman liked, and asked us to pack them for you. Now we have packed them, and the total is 1.29 million. Do you want to pay by card or cash?"
Wang Yan wanted to leave, but Manager Li stopped her.
Manager Li was suddenly fired, which was closely related to Wang Yan.
If Wang Yan hadn't come to cause trouble, how could such a thing have happened?
Manager Li blocked the door and prevented Wang Yan from escaping. "If you don't pay, then pay with your body. I'll sell you to a high-end entertainment venue and make tens of thousands of dollars a night. If you make back the more than one million, I'll let you go."
"You dare? I'll ask my aunt to deal with you." Wang Yan threatened Manager Li.
"Tsk! Call your dad over here. I'm not afraid of you." Manager Li approached Wang Yan step by step with a smile.
Li Xiaoyun didn't know that Wang Yan went to the clothing store on the third floor, and she was still looking for Wang Yan everywhere.
Wang Yan called Li Xiaoyun, but her phone was on vibrate mode and was in her bag. She couldn't feel the vibration at all, so she didn't answer Wang Yan's call.
Unable to find Li Xiaoyun, Wang Yan could only look for Lu Yichen.
"Brother Chen, they are threatening me, you have to take charge for me."
Lu Yichen thought, you dare to hit my woman, so arrogant! Get as far away as you can!
Lu Yichen had wanted to beat Wang Yan for a long time, but because she was Li Xiaoyun's niece, he let her go for the time being.
Lu Yichen said to Xia Qianqian, "Wife, just take whatever clothes you like."
Although those clothes were designed by international big-name designers and made of the most expensive materials, they were not the most comfortable.
Xia Qianqian only likes to wear pure cotton clothes. Pure cotton is comfortable, sweat-absorbent and breathable, and it is cheap and more cost-effective.
"These clothes are ugly, I don't want them."
"These clothes are the most popular styles this year, and they are endorsed by today's most popular stars."
Xia Qianqian is not a fan of celebrities. "Let me ask you, how much does it cost to hire that celebrity as a spokesperson?"
"30 million in the first quarter."
"Then how many pieces of clothing do you have to sell to earn back 30 million?"
“It depends on the price of the clothes.”
"The wool comes from the sheep! You spend this money, don't you want to get it back from the consumers?"
“That’s the truth.”
Xia Qianqian seemed to understand a little bit of business. "Look at it this way. Clothes designed by big-name designers and endorsed by celebrities are not worth the price at all. It includes the star's remuneration, and then you spread all these costs on the consumers and ask them to pay for it."
"I am a rational consumer. I don't think it's necessary to buy the most expensive clothes, but I must choose the clothes that suit me best and are made of the most comfortable materials. Instead of spending tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars on a piece of clothing, it's better to use the money to do something more valuable. For example, buy more useful things for the children. Let's go and see what to buy for the children."
After hearing what Xia Qianqian said, Lu Yichen suddenly felt that there was really no need to buy such expensive clothes!
However, different people have different preferences. Some people like beautiful, expensive luxury goods.
In order to empty the money out of these people's pockets, it is necessary to make some high-end clothes.
Lu Yichen held Xia Qianqian's hand and walked out of the store. Wang Yan came forward and pulled Lu Yichen's clothes.
"Brother Chen, you can't just abandon me. If you don't pay for me, those people won't let me go. Besides, I like those clothes too, so buy them for me!"
Lu Yichen poked Wang Yan's arm with his index finger, asking her to stay away from him.
"I don't owe you anything. My wife can't bear to buy such expensive clothes. You are not related to me. Why should I pay for you?"
"But I don't have any money on me." Wang Yan pouted and twisted her body to act coquettishly.
"Haha! Remember this face. He dares to come to a high-end store to buy clothes even though he has no money. He is so vain!" After scolding Wang Yan, Xia Qianqian continued to scold Lu Yichen.
"Hubby, please don't pay for her, or I will never forgive you. More than one million is not a small amount of money. It can buy a lot of things for the children."
"Wife, don't worry, I have never bought anything for other women except you." After Lu Yichen said this, he took Xia Qianqian's hand and walked out of the store.
Wang Yan also wanted to follow them out, but was pulled back by Manager Li and Supervisor Zhang.
Manager Li stared at Wang Yan with a fake smile.
"I'll give you ten minutes now. If you don't have money to pay, I'll take you to Xingdu?"
After Manager Li finished speaking, he was about to touch Wang Yan’s face.
Wang Yan slapped his hand away and quickly called Li Xiaoyun again.
Li Xiaoyun searched for half an hour but couldn't find Wang Yan.
Li Xiaoyun took out his cell phone and prepared to make a call, but saw several missed calls, all from Wang Yan.
"Yan Yan, where are you?"
"I'm at the XX store on the third floor. Auntie, come over here. They won't let me leave."
How could it be possible that my own nephew was bullied by others?
Li Xiaoyun hurried to the third floor, XX store.
"Aunt, you're finally here. They won't let me leave."
Li Xiaoyun pointed at Manager Li and cursed, "Why don't you let her go? You are illegally detaining her. I will call Uncle Hat to come over."
"She liked a few clothes, packed them, and said she had no money to buy them. If you don't pay for her, send her to Xingdu, where you can make money quickly."
Li Xiaoyun also knew where Xingdu was and would definitely not agree to send Wang Yan there.
The Ye family is a relative of the Lu family. It would be shameful if Wang Yan was sent to Xingdu.
Although Li Xiaoyun's husband's family is also in business, their business is not good and they only make tens of millions a year.
Li Xiaoyun was reluctant to buy herself clothes that cost hundreds of thousands of yuan each.
"If you don't let me go, I'll ask Uncle Hat to sue you for forced buying and selling."
"We are open for business. We don't force her to buy or sell. She is the one who liked the clothes and wanted to buy the most expensive clothes in our store even though she didn't have the money. She is either a rapist or a thief. You should call the police and let them handle this matter."
"Auntie, don't call the police. I'm afraid they'll come and arrest me."
Li Xiaoyun was unwilling to pay more than one million yuan, so she called Ye Manni.
This store belongs to the Lu family, and the more than one million also goes into the Lu family's pocket.
Asking the Lu family to pay the bill is just making their money go around and then return to their pockets, so they don't suffer any loss.
But Ye Manni's bank card was frozen and her pocket money was gone, so she had no money to use.
Li Xiaoyun scolded Ye Manni: "As the mistress of the Lu family, you are actually poorer than me? Are you kidding me? If you don't want to give me money, forget it. Don't come back to your parents' home in the future. You are not welcome in my family."
Li Xiaoyun was so angry that he hung up Ye Manni's phone, and then reluctantly paid the bill with his own pocket money.
More than one million! Li Xiaoyun was heartbroken. If her husband knew about this, he would definitely scold her to death.
