C18 The Beginning of a Business Empire!

After taking a quick tour of the dealership, Soong Yang casually tossed his bank card onto the counter. "That little sports car isn't too shabby."

The salesperson was caught off guard, about to dismissively flick the bank card away without a second glance.

Just then, an attractive female sales associate approached. She delicately picked up the card and offered a warm smile, "Sir, I'll process this for you immediately."

Her male colleague interjected, "Zhang Ziqing, it's your first day, and you can't yet read people. He's clearly here to stir up trouble, probably to shoot a video for some views. I've seen this act before."

"It's okay, I'll give it a shot. Consider it practice," the poised saleswoman replied.

"Fine, it's on you. If you want to waste your time, don't come crying to me when you're played!" the male salesperson spat out bitterly.

Zhang Ziqing may have been new on the job, but her striking beauty and fair legs had already drawn the attention of many colleagues.

The male salesperson had hoped to regain some dignity through Soong Yang, but with Zhang Ziqing stepping in, he was forced to back down.

He redirected his frustration at Soong Yang, sneering, "If you can actually afford that car, I'll kneel right here and call you grandpa!"

"The card is charged fifty-five million dollars, leaving a balance of one billion, nine hundred ninety-nine million, nine hundred forty-five thousand," announced the mechanical voice of the card reader, echoing through the hall.

"What?" The male salesperson's face was a picture of astonishment.

He hadn't pegged Soong Yang for someone of means.

And with that kind of money, how could Soong Yang be just a student?

He stole a glance at the swiped bank card, catching sight of the golden dragon design.

It was the prestigious Golden Dragon Card from Construction Bank, exclusive to those with assets in the hundreds of millions.

Why didn't I look closer before? I mistook him for a nobody, only to find out he's loaded!

The male salesperson was filled with regret.

Soong Yang just chuckled at him, "You said you'd call me grandpa, but I won't hold you to it. We're not cut from the same cloth, and I'm not one to sweat the small stuff."

"Grandpa!"

The male salesperson dropped to his knees at once. After three resounding kowtows, he looked up and pleaded, "Grandpa, I was wrong. I shouldn't have angered you. Please, forgive me!"

Soong Yang, noting his earnestness, slipped his hand into his pocket and responded, "Alright, you're forgiven. The commission from this car is yours. Now, go pick out the most expensive car for me, and that commission will be yours as well."

"Thank you, grandpa!"

Elated, the sales clerk kowtowed twice more before rising to his feet.

He stood to make tens of thousands in commission from just one car sale. And if he could sell that two-million-dollar hybrid sports car, his cut would be a whopping two hundred thousand.

I'm definitely going to be the top performer this month!

Meanwhile, the other salespeople watching from the sidelines couldn't hide their disappointment. Why hadn't they been the ones to call Soong Yang 'grandpa'?

Zhang Ziqing, who had just stepped away to swipe her card, was taken aback, a trace of dejection on her face.

Soong Yang turned to her and offered, "Zhang Ziqing, you seem very sensible. How about you come work for me? I'm in need of an assistant. I'll pay you a salary of 500,000 dollars a month, plus bonuses."

"Really? Then I'm your assistant now, boss!" Zhang Ziqing's excitement was palpable.

She had been left with little choice but to work at the 4S store, where the male salesmen were far from honorable, always ogling her beauty.

Even the manager had been inappropriate with her when she first started.

Naturally, she was more than willing to follow a wealthy and amiable boss like Soong Yang!

Soong Yang allowed himself a small smile. The encounter with the male salesperson was a lesson learned, and he resolved to take on the role of boss himself.

Only with his own influence and resources could he prevent such incidents from recurring.

Today marked the beginning of Soong Yang's business empire, and bringing Zhang Ziqing on board as his assistant was just the start.
