Eight years have passed, he's still going strong, but his girlfriend is having a mental breakdo

"Hello, Hermès."

Saleswoman Huang Songyi greeted them warmly.

To judge whether a man is rich, don't look at what clothes he wears, but look at the women around him.

If you're with an unattractive woman who doesn't wear makeup and is constantly throwing tantrums... without a doubt, you're a loser. Even if you're dressed in designer brands, your potential won't be much higher.

Although Zhao Hongan was dressed head-to-toe in Taobao clothes, Li Zimeng beside him was dressed in LV, had a hot figure, was young and beautiful, and had an elegant demeanor. Yet, she was so proactive in sticking close to Zhao Hongan, as obedient as a little bird seeking shelter...

Anyone with a little common sense would know that Zhao Hong'an is definitely a rich man, and most likely not just an ordinary tycoon.

Elderly wealthy men who bring young girls to the store usually don't leave empty-handed.

After all, the young girl is being so proactive; she can't possibly be after you, an old man, because you're too old or don't shower, right?

As Huang Songyi discreetly observed Zhao Hong'an, Zhao Hong'an's gaze also swept over Huang Songyi.

It has to be said that the saleswomen in luxury stores are truly exceptional in appearance and demeanor.

Huang Songyi wore a gray women's suit, the top of which was slightly loose, and a large floral scarf was loosely tied around her neck...

Elegant yet alluring.

【Ding. 】

[Target goddess detected; host's attraction to goddess detected; quantum entanglement established; binding to target established.]

[Target goddess: Huang Songyi.]

[Current affinity towards the host: -30.]

[Tip: Gifting to a bound target will grant a tenfold return, with a chance to trigger a critical hit.]

[Note: Reaching a favorability rating of 90 constitutes a successful comeback and will grant you a special reward.]

It's tied up.

Brother Tong is always so reliable.

But what the heck is -30 favorability?

Zhao Hongan's face darkened.

This Huang Songyi, on the surface, is very enthusiastic and respectful to him, but unexpectedly, my liking for him is as low as -30, which is practically the level of disgust.

If the system hadn't identified Huang Songyi as the target goddess and bound her to someone else, Zhao Hong'an would have wanted to replace the saleswoman immediately.

Huang Songyi noticed the change in Zhao Hongan's expression and her heart skipped a beat.

She did indeed have some aversion to Zhao Hong'an.

Because in her heart she had already judged Zhao Hong'an as an old lecher, someone who was so old and still playing with young girls.

But her professionalism prevented her from showing any outward signs.

Why did Zhao Hongan's expression suddenly change after he glanced at her?

Feeling uneasy, Huang Songyi became even more cautious.

She dared not offend such a wealthy and distinguished client.

[Jona's affection level +10, currently at 70.]

Just then, a system panel notification appeared.

Jona?

Zhao Hongan was slightly taken aback.

It wasn't Huang Songyi, but Qiao Na... For a moment, he almost misunderstood.

What happened?

Why did Jona's favorability rating increase by 10 points for no reason?

It didn't increase earlier or later, but it just happened to increase as soon as he arrived.

Does this mean Jona saw him?

But shouldn't Jona's affection for him decrease after seeing him so intimate with other girls?

He came to Hermès instead of LV, so Jona's favorability towards him should have decreased.

How come it increased by 10 points instead?

Zhao Hongan felt his mind was a bit of a mess.

Is this how rich people and beautiful women always interact?

Or rather, you can't just rush headlong into things when you're with a beautiful woman.

The key is to pull back and forth, to create distance when necessary, to keep things in check, and to maintain a balance between closeness and distance.

Zhao Hong'an seemed to have a sudden realization.

"Sir, Madam, what would you like to see today?" Huang Songyi asked with a smile.

Although Zhao Hongan had never bought a Hermès bag, he knew that Hermès' purchase restriction system was incredibly complex.

If it weren't for the fact that many young women love Hermès and stock up on these items to give as gifts, they could not only get a tenfold return on their investment but also easily increase the favorability of the target they're targeting...

Zhao Hongan had no interest in coming here to be subjected to their PUA tactics.

He chuckled and said, "I'm buying these to give as gifts. I don't have any particular requirements. Could you please recommend something for me? I'm buying a lot of items."

Huang Songyi was overjoyed upon hearing this.

No saleswoman dislikes this type of customer.

Some customers come in and specifically ask for the season's best-selling bags, and they refuse to accept any additional items, complaining bitterly about queuing to buy them...

Saleswomen would rather not serve those kinds of customers.

It's quite normal to make 100,000 or 200,000 yuan by buying a new, best-selling bag and reselling it on the second-hand market.

There's absolutely no need for promotion.

Each saleswoman has a limited quota, and there's not much commission on sales. They need to earn money by matching other products with other items or by maintaining relationships with high-end customers.

Some slow-moving goods are a heavy burden for the store. If they can be sold, not only will the rebate be high, but it will also greatly improve her performance and earn her a bonus.

For example, some stocked home decor items can have rebates as high as 20%.

Huang Songyi's gaze swept over an enamel ashtray.

This enamel ashtray is not only unsellable in their store, but it's unsellable worldwide.

The store manager had given up hope of selling the several unsold items and had no intention of doing so.

This item costs 86,000 yuan each. Once it's sold, Huang Songyi can earn about 20,000 yuan in commissions.

However, Huang Songyi's gaze eventually shifted away.

She was afraid that if she started pushing this right away, it would anger Zhao Hong'an and make him think that she was trying to take advantage of him...

There aren't many fools among the rich.

Huang Songyi pondered for a moment, then picked up a small calfskin bag and went to the jewelry section to get a necklace.

"Sir/Madam, this is our Garden Party calfskin bag, priced at 24,800. We have plenty of stock."

"In addition, we also have the Chaîne d'Ancre necklace, which is palladium plated and costs 9,200. It is perfect as a gift."

Although she didn't say it directly, her implication was clear: she wanted to buy the bag to go with the necklace, as a package deal.

After Huang Songyi finished speaking, she smiled and quietly looked at Zhao Hongan, waiting for him to make a choice.

If Zhao Hongan only buys that calfskin bag, Huang Songyi will still sell it, but she will inevitably be disappointed and will conclude that Zhao Hongan is not a high-quality customer.

If Zhao Hongan tries to buy other everyday bags, he will be told they are "out of stock".

Zhao Hongan glanced at it.

A bag costing nearly 25,000 yuan, paired with a necklace costing less than 10,000 yuan...

To be honest, this ratio of goods to goods is quite reasonable.

"I'll take both of them."

As soon as Zhao Hongan spoke, Huang Songyi's smile became more genuine.

Zhao Hong'an noticed the change in Huang Songyi's expression, smiled faintly, and pointed towards the ashtray:

"How many ashtrays like these are there? Pack them all up, I want them all."

Huang Songyi was slightly taken aback, then her face lit up with surprise.

These ashtrays are a real headache for the store manager.

If she can sell them, her sales performance for this month will be secure.

"Sir, this enamel ashtray costs 86,000, and we have five left. Do you want them all?"

Zhao Hongan didn't even lift his eyelids: "I want them all."

This old man was so decisive.

No wonder he's so old, yet he can still find such a young girlfriend.

"Yes, sir. Five enamel ashtrays, I'll have them ready for you right away."

[Huang Songyi's favorability +20, current favorability -10.]

It's rare that the favorability rating has increased to -10, so it's not that I dislike them too much.

Li Zimeng watched as Grandpa Zhao spent money like water the whole time, and she could clearly sense the change in Huang Songyi's attitude.

Although they were enthusiastic at the beginning, it was clearly different from the enthusiasm they have now.

Grandpa Zhao is just that kind of approachable person.

He spent 430,000 yuan on five ashtrays without even blinking an eye...

Li Zimeng felt that she needed to reassess Grandpa Zhao's assets.

If you only had nine figures, you probably wouldn't dare to spend that much, right?

[Li Zimeng, favorability +1, current favorability 89.]
