PS Chapter 52 – The 3rd Song
This is a bonus chapter. Thank you Eliza Lalik for the donation.
TN: There was minor mistake in Chapter 51.
“Leaves, don’t you think I’m a light bulb?” was changed to “Yezi, don’t you think I’m a light bulb?”
The so-called “exposed bottom” is a jargon, referring to brand-new packaged goods that are ready to be sold, where the seal at the bottom of the package has been heated with a hair dryer so that the seal won’t be damaged, making it look like it wasn’t tampered with1, and then taking out the accessories or the actual good and replacing them with refurbished goods or even fake goods, thus making huge profit.
As long as this trick is done properly, ordinary customers can’t see through the flaws at all. They still think that all the goods have not been opened and are sure that it was the real deal, and they don’t have the faintest idea that they have been cheated.
Lu Chen saw that the salesman happily promised, so he gave a warning in advance, letting the salesman know that he also knows these things and he won’t be fooled. So that he would not be troubled later.
In fact, when it comes to darker stores, shop a.s.sistants often fool customers into paying first and then cheat them with older versions of the same style and different models. The water is very deep in the computer sales industry.
However, costumers are now smarter. And with the internet being more developed and with fast information transmission, everyone is more willing to go to reliable shopping websites, so that people can avoid these infamous digital cities.
The salesman’s face was stiff and showed a smile that was more ugly than crying. “Please be a.s.sured, sir, our store pays a lot of attention in our reputation and will not deceive customers!”
Lu Chen laughed but did not speak. Of course, he did not dare to continue arguing. But if the other side did not understand, he didn’t mind using other means2.
The salesman went to the warehouse to transfer the goods. Zuo Xintian said with great admiration, “Senior, you are really great!”
She and Ye Zitong are both very smart girls. How can they not see the salesman’s guilt? If they hadn’t invited Lu Chen to help them today, and instead come by themselves, where would they get this kind of connection?
It is estimated that the price of the goods is according to the online price, and the contents are the genuine items.
Ye Zitong was a little worried: “Will there be trouble with the warranty later?”
The salesman was crushed by Lu Chen. It’s hard to guarantee that he won’t take revenge.
Lu Chen laughed and said, “Why look for them for warranty? Just go straight to customer service. If you want them to do repair, you’ll just get trick again. There’s no need at all!”
The water is deeper in maintenance than in sales!
Ye Zitong felt relieved. Her beautiful eyes swayed and she bit her lip and asked, “Mr. Lu Chen, why did you say you wanted to buy two sets? Do you want to buy one for yourself?”
This kind of notebook is suitable for girls and obviously it was not for him.
Lu Chen explained, “Yes, the other one is for my sister, who is going to take the university entrance examination next year.”
Ye Zitong smiled and said, “It turned out to be the case. You are so good to your sister!”
As a result, she accidentally saw Zuo Xintian’s ambiguous gaze, and she immediately blushed.
