"Of... of course."
Zhou Xing's words brought the two back to their senses as if waking from a dream.
Luo Ming nodded repeatedly, the smile on his face growing even wider, and his tone carried a hint of respect.
Over three billion!
He had never seen so much money in his entire life.
Forget buying a laferrari; it was more than enough to buy this entire store.
And this was all cash!
Having a lot of cash didn't just mean being wealthy.
It was a symbol of status.
In all of China, those who could casually produce this much money could be counted on one hand.
Zhou Xing was so young, yet he held over three billion in his hands.
One could only imagine how terrifying his background must be!
He was simply not someone a person like Luo Ming could afford to offend.
Compared to Zhou Xing, the Second-generation rich he had seen in the past were like beggars compared to a king.
Xiao Lanlan rubbed her eyes.
After realizing it wasn't a hallucination but a genuine ten-digit figure, she couldn't help but gasp.
She drew in a sharp breath.
Her mouth hung open as she looked at Zhou Xing in utter astonishment.
What was the background of this handsome young man who looked so young and dressed so plainly?
Even Wang Xiaocong, the son of the richest man, probably couldn't produce this much cash, right?
"I'll go process this for you right away. Please wait a moment."
Luo Ming finished speaking and prepared to leave, but after a few steps, he turned back.
He slapped his own forehead and handed the phone back to Zhou Xing: "I am so sorry, I almost forgot. This is your phone, please keep it safe."
His hands were still trembling as he handed it over.
As a manager, especially a manager for Ferrari, it was unlikely for him to make such a low-level mistake.
The main reason was that the impact of that balance was simply too great.
He was still feeling the lingering shock.
Zhou Xing took the phone and slipped it into his pocket: "So you mean I can order a laferrari now without following those conditions?"
"That's right."
Luo Ming bowed his body, showing complete humility: "Actually, to order a laferrari, an order is placed through us, then the configuration is sent to headquarters. Headquarters then begins production, and once finished, it is shipped here and finally delivered to the customer."
"But during the process, there are always people who give up on the order and don't pay the final balance because the wait time is too long or they need money urgently for other reasons."
Luo Ming explained: "Orders require a deposit, which is non-refundable. To avoid losing that money for nothing, customers will choose to resell the order."
"It just so happens that we have an order in our shop that just became available, and the customer has authorized us to handle it entirely."
So that was it!
Zhou Xing understood.
Ordering a car was inherently a tedious process.
Especially for luxury cars like Ferraris.
They were basically hand-built, customized according to each person's configuration to create a unique, personality-filled vehicle for the customer.
With all the back and forth, the time frame was significantly extended.
A few months was the norm.
For some limited-edition models with higher requirements, waiting for several years was possible.
These cars were not cheap.
If someone encountered financial problems midway and needed liquidity, they would choose to cancel the order.
"However, Mr. Zhou, you don't need to worry. Although it's a resold order, it was placed less than a month ago, and headquarters hasn't started production yet."
Luo Ming seemed worried that Zhou Xing might dislike taking over someone else's order.
After all, everyone who orders a car wants to choose their favorite configuration and create a sports car with their personal style.
This was even more true for a laferrari.
It was normal for top-tier wealthy people like Zhou Xing to have certain taboos.
He immediately added: "So, it's actually no different from placing the order yourself. As long as you're willing, you can add or remove configurations for this car, and we can even have your initials printed on the body."
"Does that sound acceptable to you?"
Zhou Xing nodded.
"Very well, I'll have Xiao Lan help you select the configuration."
Luo Ming stood to the side: "Once the configuration is confirmed, I will modify the order for you."
Xiao Lanlan also hurriedly tapped a few times on the iPad.
Accompanied by the roar of a laferrari engine from the speakers, a red laferrari with butterfly doors drove into everyone's sight on the large LCD TV like a bolt of lightning.
"Mr... Mr. Zhou, please take a look at the exterior color of the vehicle."
Xiao Lanlan spoke, but for some reason, she felt an inexplicable sense of pressure when facing the young Zhou Xing.
"Red."
Zhou Xing didn't hesitate; this color was the soul of Ferrari.
"Please look at the carbon fiber steering wheel."
"Select it!"
"What about the rims?"
"Select them!"
"The calipers..."
"Select them!"
"..."
Xiao Lanlan was becoming a bit numb. Was the life of the wealthy really this simple and unadorned?
For configurations costing tens or even hundreds of thousands at every turn, Zhou Xing didn't even blink before selecting them.
There was no so-called 'personalized customization' here.
There was only 'max everything out'!
She wasn't even this casual when buying discounted items at the supermarket.
When the final configuration sheet came out.
She was also shocked when she saw the numbers on it.
"Mr. Zhou, it's a total of 49.03 million. This is the configuration sheet, please have a look."
Xiao Lanlan handed the configuration sheet to Zhou Xing.
For a car with a starting price of over twenty million, the options had added another twenty million.
He had basically added another laferrari's worth of options.
By the time customs duties and various taxes were added, the total value of the car might exceed sixty million.
It truly reached the level of a fifty-million-class luxury car!
"Because it's a resold order, you need to pay a two million order transfer fee and a two million deposit, totaling four million."
Luo Ming stood by and reminded him.
Zhou Xing only gave the configuration sheet a cursory glance before immediately taking out his card: "Swipe it."
"Alright."
Luo Ming took the card and then brought out the already prepared POS machine and swiped it.
"Please enter your PIN!"
He handed the POS machine to Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing was about to enter his PIN but looked at Xiao Lanlan next to him, hesitating slightly.
As a Ferrari manager and a shrewd individual, Luo Ming immediately understood Zhou Xing's concern.
He smiled and explained: "Mr. Zhou, please rest assured. This order is handled by Xiao Lan throughout the entire process. All subsequent commissions and bonuses will be given to her."
Zhou Xing gave a slight nod and then entered his PIN.
*Whirrr...*
A second later, the POS machine spat out the transaction receipt, signifying a successful payment.
"I'll go prepare the contract for you and modify the order. Please wait here for a moment."
Luo Ming respectfully left the configuration room.
In the room, only Zhou Xing and Xiao Lanlan were left.
After a moment of silence.
Xiao Lanlan looked up at Zhou Xing: "Thank you!"
She had seen Zhou Xing's actions just now.
As a new salesperson, if Zhou Xing hadn't spoken up, she would have been helpless even if her manager had swallowed her performance credit.
The commission for a laferrari was at least several hundred thousand.
To her, that was already a huge sum of money.
"It's nothing."
Zhou Xing's expression was calm, and he didn't pay much more attention to that issue, instead asking: "What made you think of doing sales?"
"That... that's definitely to make money."
Xiao Lanlan said: "I just graduated from university and don't have any special skills. The only thing I have is... is... oh, anyway, I'm doing sales to support myself first."
Zhou Xing gave a light laugh and looked at Xiao Lanlan. It seemed she was self-aware about the fact that she was good-looking.
In the absence of special skills, it was perfectly reasonable to rely on beauty to attract more customers.
It was exactly the same as her approach in his previous life.
She initially became popular on TikTok, but without other abilities, she seemed to lack staying power.
"I still have to thank you. With this bonus, I'll be able to survive in Shanghai. Otherwise, next month's rent would have been a problem."
Xiao Lanlan stuck out her tongue, appearing very frank about her situation.
"With your looks, there's actually no need to do sales. Finding a wealthy boyfriend could solve all of this."
Zhou Xing raised an eyebrow.
"How is that possible!"
Xiao Lanlan's reaction was a bit strong: "Wouldn't that be being kept by someone?"
By the end of her sentence, her face was a bit red, looking nothing like her image in the short videos of the future.
Zhou Xing just smiled and didn't say anything else.
Xiao Lanlan peeked at Zhou Xing secretly, suddenly realizing something.
"What did he mean by that? Does he have that intention?"
Xiao Lanlan was startled by this thought and immediately shook her head, thinking it was a bit absurd.
Zhou Xing was so young and so rich.
He was also very gentle, even considering the feelings of a small salesperson like her.
He was also very handsome, looking sunny and clean.
He was exactly the image of a dream god.
On one hand, Xiao Lanlan told herself it wasn't realistic, but on the other hand, she couldn't help but let her thoughts run wild.
If Zhou Xing wanted to be her boyfriend, should she agree immediately or wait a bit before agreeing?
A moment later.
Luo Ming walked in with a thick stack of contracts.
"Mr. Zhou, the order has been modified."
Luo Ming placed the contracts on the table: "Next, you just need to sign the contracts, then wait for the vehicle to arrive, pay the final balance, and you can take delivery of that laferrari."
After Zhou Xing finished signing the large pile of contracts, he looked up and asked: "About how long will it take for me to receive this car?"
"Let me check for you."
Luo Ming picked up the iPad, looked carefully, and said: "According to the system, it will only take six months to be shipped to our store."
"Six months..."
Zhou Xing's brow furrowed.
Although he had prepared himself mentally, six months still felt a bit long.
Not being able to drive this legendary car immediately was always a bit frustrating.
He suddenly turned to Xiao Lanlan: "Do you have anything to do this afternoon?"
"Ah?"
Xiao Lanlan snapped back to attention: "I still have to work this afternoon!"
"Having signed such a big order, it shouldn't be too much to ask for half a day off, right?"
Although Zhou Xing was looking at Xiao Lanlan, he was speaking to Luo Ming.
"Of course, no problem. As long as Xiao Lan agrees, I can give her a day and a half off, and she can come back to work the day after tomorrow."
How could Luo Ming not understand Zhou Xing's meaning? He naturally agreed readily, not wanting to offend this young master.
"In that case, come out with me this afternoon."
Zhou Xing said to Xiao Lanlan.
"Where to?"
"To buy a car!"
