Chapter 118 The Most Dedicated Salesman

It was a little after four in the morning, almost closing time for the bookstore. The little loli sat behind the counter, casually flipping through a comic book.

Business was terrible. After sitting there all night, she hadn't seen a single wandering soul. She had hoped to secretly earn some extra money while Zhou Ze was out late, but it seemed like she had wasted her time.

The old Taoist had already taken Monkey upstairs to rest, and the Deadpool had returned to his room after cleaning up. However, Bai Yingying continued to sit on the sofa, playing a mobile game and occasionally glancing outside.

It was already so late, and the boss hadn't returned yet. Yingying was a little worried.

"Hey, stupid zombie, let's go up and sleep!"

The little loli called out to Bai Yingying.

Bai Yingying shook her head firmly. "The boss isn't back yet. What's the point of sleeping?"

The little loli shook her head in distress. "He's not back, but I want to sleep."

"I only sleep with the boss."

The little loli raised her hands in surrender, fine, fine, I give up, this loli can only try to sleep with you.

Jumping off the chair, the little loli stretched. Only then did she notice something stuck to the glass door. She went over to take a look and saw it was a large poster with a QR code and a man holding a phone, looking surprised:

"Professional financial management, stable and secure, generous interest rates. If you want financial management, choose the 'Chicken Treasure' Financial App!"

"Hey, who put this up?" the little loli asked Bai Yingying.

"The old Taoist put it up. He said someone came during the day to promote it and gave him three thousand yuan in advertising fees to put the poster on our door for a month. The money has already been put in the public account," Bai Yingying replied.

"Chicken Treasure Financial App?" The little loli smacked her lips. "These days, all sorts of 'treasures' are popping up. Money Treasure, Frog Treasure, and now Chicken Treasure. I'm getting a little hungry. Right, let Old Xu make chicken casserole tomorrow."

Bai Yingying rolled her eyes.

"Let's just tear this poster down. It's degrading to put this thing up," the little loli said, reaching out to tear down the poster.

"Someone's coming to check it tomorrow. If you tear it down, we'll have to return the money to him tomorrow," Bai Yingying reminded her.

"So what if we have to return it? The boss is already so poor. It won't make much difference if he gets a little poorer."

"Whatever."

To be honest, Bai Yingying didn't really care about the three thousand yuan.

The layout of the entire bookstore was strange. The employees were all richer than each other. The poorest one was the boss.

"Rip!"

The poster was torn down by the little loli,

crumpled into a ball,

"Ah, this brings back memories of my days in business."

"You used to do this?" Bai Yingying asked curiously.

"Stupid zombie, your old lady was a powerful businesswoman back in the day. What business tactics haven't I seen? This is actually a very low-level trick."

"Oh?"

Bai Yingying became interested.

She had money.

She had a lot of money.

But her biggest problem now was that, aside from buying houses, Bai Yingying didn't know how to manage her finances. Those burial items were just dead objects. To be honest, Bai Yingying didn't have much emotional attachment to them. It would be better to turn them into money, and then let the money generate more money.

Because the boss liked money,

Bai Yingying instinctively felt that money was a good thing, even though she didn't need to eat or drink anything.

"Your old lady used to make good things bad, turning a company with good performance, great potential, and strong development prospects into a garbage enterprise with a lot of bad debts and dismal prospects that was a bloodsucker if not reformed.

Anyway, it's all sorts of public opinion and propaganda, and then adding some ambiguous things, like collusion between officials and businessmen."

"Tell me more."

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

"Tell me, or don't even think about sleeping with me."

"............" The little loli was speechless.

"Let me give you an example. It's like taking a diamond and advertising it as a stone in a latrine, making everyone who helped build the latrine think it's a piece of garbage and casually selling it to me at a low price. And then those people would have to thank me for it.

But in reality, a diamond is still a diamond. After cleaning the dirt off of it, it's still a diamond. What I did most was buy diamonds back at the price of stones. There were a lot of people playing this game back then. Everyone basically used this kind of trick.

As for those real garbage state-owned enterprises, who would be stupid enough to buy them?"

"Hmm..." Bai Yingying nodded, seeming to understand.

"This is a high-level skill, because there's something actually there. The methods you want to use to operate it must be very sophisticated.

But this Chicken Treasure is the lowest-level skill, because it doesn't have anything at all.

It will brag to you that it has taken everyone's money to invest in some enterprises, done some real industries, invested in some teams, so I will have dividends for everyone, give everyone interest rates several times higher than the bank, please rest assured, give me money."

"Hmm............"

"Actually, it's pretty much a Ponzi scheme. Once it encounters a run, it's directly GG. Some people in the front may have made money, but they only made the money of the last batch of suckers."

"Isn't this stupid?"

"There aren't many truly stupid people. Most people are just pretending to be stupid."

The little loli stretched,

"The key is how you package it. Nonexistent things, fake things, you blow them up vigorously, keep giving them "biographies", and they can also become real things.

As for whether this person exists, it doesn't matter;

as long as everyone believes that this person exists, that's enough.

As for whether this person really exists,

no one really cares."

"A bit profound."

Bai Yingying rested her chin in her hand and pondered.

"Alright, let's go to sleep," the little loli said. "When Zhou Ze comes back, let him wash up and crawl into our bed."

"But I still want to wait for the boss to come back."

The little loli took a deep breath. So she had just wasted her breath.

But,

just then,

a person walked over outside the bookstore. That person was wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase.

At first, the little loli thought it was that flamboyant lawyer who had returned, because he was always dressed in a suit and tie. But upon closer inspection, she realized it wasn't.

Ha!

A customer had arrived!

The door was pushed open by the other party, who walked in with full confidence.

Well,

she had seen many wandering souls enter the bookstore, in all sorts of states, but this was the first time she had seen one so high-spirited and confident.

"I'll go prepare some food."

Bai Yingying got up to prepare a few cold dishes. Before sending someone on their way, treat the wandering soul, this was a value-added service innovated by the bookstore itself.

"You, come here!"

The little loli pointed at the man in the suit and then pointed at the private room.

The man in the suit followed the little loli into the private room.

Bai Yingying brought over a few cold dishes and poured a glass of yellow wine.

The man in the suit ate and drank with great enthusiasm.

After he finished eating, he could be sent on his way.

The little loli yawned.

"Do you want to get rich?" the man suddenly lowered his head and looked at the little loli and Bai Yingying.

"Yes, yes, if you leave a little more hell money when you go down, we'll be satisfied," the little loli replied.

"No, no, no, what is hell money? I'll get you real money!"

As he spoke,

the man opened his briefcase and took out a stack of documents from inside.

"This is our company's business, professional financial management, extremely high profits. Our company has invested in many Fortune 500 companies around the world. Guaranteed profit without loss!"

The little loli almost laughed out loud.

What a dedicated employee this must be.

Even after death,

he still didn't forget to drum up business for his company. On this point alone, the boss should give him more bereavement pay.

Bai Yingying took the contract and started reading it. The little loli also leaned over to take a look, and found that it was also a promotional advertisement for a financial app, but it was much more exaggerated and flashy than the Chicken Treasure that had been posted on the door before.

The annual interest rate on the door was only a dozen points, but this one was almost forty points.

"Duck Treasure?" The little loli glanced at the platform name and said, "I just saw the news today that this one has been run on and exploded. This platform is finished. The official website has crashed, and the people demanding repayment are all gathered at the Huanglong Sports Center."

"Nonsense, how is that possible? I am the business vice president of our Duck Treasure. I have a high degree of confidence in our company's business strength and stability."

"Then why don't you let your parents invest money? Why give the advantage to outsiders?" the little loli retorted.

"They did invest. My money, my parents' money, even the family's house was mortgaged and invested in it. My girlfriend's parents' money was also invested in it, and many relatives and friends were persuaded by me to invest money in it."

The little loli was stunned.

She didn't know how to respond to this answer.

"But this should be a fake thing, right?" Bai Yingying said. She had been given a lesson by the little loli before.

"It's real, definitely real. The run is just a temporary situation. If you bottom out now, you'll definitely make a lot of money in the future!

I guarantee it with my life!"

"You don't even have a life. What are you guaranteeing?"

The little loli clapped her hands, urging:

"Alright, alright, stop promoting. It's time to go on the road. Go on the road."

As she said this,

the little loli stood up,

opened her mouth,

and stretched out her alluring and vibrant long tongue.

"No, you have to listen to me, buy it, invest money in it quickly, really, you can definitely make money."

Before this salesman went to the Yellow Springs Road, he was still tirelessly promoting.

"We don't have money to buy it. Look, this bookstore doesn't make money either. The boss has been operating at a loss," Bai Yingying spread her hands and said, "You're so anxious to call us to buy it. Why?"

Are the words of a dying man good?

It didn't seem right.

"The underworld has order... the Yellow Springs can be crossed..."

Next to her,

the little loli's exclusive background music rang.

The gates of hell,

are opening for you...

The man in the suit was dragged sadly toward the inside. He had no way to struggle. At this time, he could only be passively dragged in, and struggling was useless.

He was a little sad, a little unwilling, and at the same time, extremely lost and bewildered;

and at the same time,

muttering to himself:

"If you don't invest money in it, how can my parents' and my girlfriend's family's money be withdrawn...

Someone has to...

take over..."
