Kapitel 20: Chapter 20: When Has Showing Off Ever Gone Out of Style?
Gu Heng watched the scene unfold, and even forgot how to use his phone...
This was the first time he had seen an authentic nightclub show-off scene...
Although he didn't know what the "Big Three Yuan" mentioned in the marketing spiel was, it must be something similar to the "Shenlong Suit"...
Although he had never witnessed the show-off scene of the Shenlong Suit in person, he had read plenty of novels about it, where didn't each protagonist visiting nightclubs have to flaunt a couple of Shenlong Suits?
However...
Now, those novels about flaunting the Shenlong Suit had become less common...
He had thought the Shenlong Suit was outdated, but seeing the reaction of the people in the bar, Gu Heng realized it was not outdated at all...
When he thought about it...
Show-off scenes never become outdated, do they?
Even in eight hundred years, as long as there are nightclubs, there will definitely be people continuing to show off...
Thinking about this stirred something in Gu Heng's heart...
Should he also try this out for himself?
......
Sometimes, desire is like Pandora's box.
Once opened, it cannot be controlled.
Does showing off count as a desire?
Of course it does!
It's just that showing off might only be the most superficial and easily attained of human desires...
After seeing others successfully show off, the originally slight idea in Gu Heng's mind began to expand rapidly within a very short period, swelling to the point he almost couldn't suppress it...
The only reason he hadn't acted yet was because the consumer mindset he had developed over more than 20 years was contending with his desires...
Suddenly...
The Construction Bank app finally refreshed.
After reflexively entering his password, the account balance appeared before Gu Heng...
Ignoring the insignificant digits at the end, the prefix 2.2 million acted like the key to Pandora's box, completely unleashing what Gu Heng was pondering...
2.2 million!
I fucking have 2.2 million!
Why shouldn't I show off?
At this moment, Lin Jiayun's gaze was still following the procession of wine deliveries and failed to see the figures on Gu Heng's phone. Just as she turned around, she suddenly noticed Gu Heng standing up.
"Hmm? Gu Heng, what are you doing?"
"Just satisfying my own emotional value."
"???"
Before Lin Jiayun could comprehend the meaning of Gu Heng's words, she saw him waving to the marketer named Jiajun.
While chatting with a waitress, Jiajun, seeing Gu Heng summoning him, quickly ran in from outside the booth.
"What's up, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Heng didn't directly answer his question but instead asked, "I remember you're called Jiajun, right?"
Though a bit baffled by Gu Heng's seemingly random question, Jiajun answered with a hint of respect, "Yes, Mr. Gu, or you can call me Xiaojun if you like."
Not lingering too long over the issue of what to call him, Gu Heng spoke again, "What's the procedure for ordering drinks here?"
"What procedure?"
Jiajun was puzzled.
"I mean, like the procedure for that booth over there."
Gu Heng's voice wasn't loud, but to Jiajun's ears, it was louder than the music in the bar...
Was this... the prelude to a big transaction?!
But he didn't ponder for long and quickly replied.
"It's like this, Mr. Gu, the normal procedure is you order drinks through me, and then the waitress serves them to you, like the BOSS·3 booth customer who ordered the Big Three Yuan set, that's why he received such treatment."
Hearing Jiajun's words, Gu Heng nodded to indicate that he understood, but then he quickly continued, "Do I need to order the Shenlong Set to have the same ritual as before?"
Jiajun first nodded, and then shook his head to explain, "Actually, as long as the consumption meets a certain standard, our store offers a ritual. The Shenlong Set is worth 168,000, which meets this standard, but it's not the case that only by ordering the Shenlong Set will you get that."
With this explanation from Jiajun, Gu Heng understood.
"Do you have a drink menu?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
After answering with the fastest speed, he took out the drink menu he carried with him and brought it to Gu Heng...
Lin Jiayun, He Jing, and Xiao Lan, sitting nearby, also couldn't help but gather around when they saw this scene.
Lin Jiayun asked with curiosity, "Gu Heng, are you ordering drinks? Isn't the alcohol we have already enough for us?"
This time, however, Gu Heng ignored her and began to read the drink menu under the light.
The menu offered a wide variety of drinks...
Apart from the most common Budweiser and Kronenbourg 1664, Gu Heng hadn't heard of most of them.
The price range was also very wide, from the cheapest beer at 20 to the most expensive bottle called Château de Martell Supreme, priced at 66,666 yuan...enough to buy more than 3000 bottles of Budweiser...
Besides, Gu Heng also saw the only Shenlong Set he knew of...
The light became increasingly glaring, and he had no patience to continue looking. After all, he hadn't tasted the drinks listed above and there was no need to pretend to choose; he only wanted to check the prices...
Soon after, Gu Heng returned the drink menu to Jiajun.
"Mr. Gu, have you chosen the drink you'd like to order?"
He had a premonition that Mr. Gu in front of him might place an order as big as the Big Three Yuan!
Though it wasn't the first time he had handled big orders, his heart always inevitably thumped every time—probably a common condition among salespeople?
Seeing Jiajun's hopeful eyes, Gu Heng shook his head.
"Ah?"
"Is there not a drink Mr. Gu is satisfied with?"
Thinking that Gu Heng had given up on placing an order, the light in Jiajun's eyes faded quickly, but he still forced a smile and asked.
"It's too troublesome to look like this."
Having said that, he looked into Jiajun's eyes and spoke calmly, "Now use a calculator to tell me how much it would cost to buy one of each item listed on this drink menu."
"!!!"
Indeed, he hadn't misjudged the man!
The big order really came!
Standing next to Gu Heng, the three women also experienced a collective pupil dilation after hearing this...
Although they were not sure how much all the drinks on the menu would cost, they knew it wouldn't be cheap...
He Jing was the first to react; she walked up to Gu Heng and was just about to speak when Gu Heng stopped her.
"I know what you're going to say, but could you wait a moment longer?"
After saying it, he even winked at her to show that he was in a perfectly normal mental state.
As for Lin Jiayun...
She no longer wanted to check the balance on Gu Heng's bank card, the idea of pursuing him had fully formed.
Even if Gu Heng had only won a lottery ticket, she would accept it, because the current Gu Heng was just damn handsome...
"Mr. Gu, I've calculated it for you—it's a total of 345,620 yuan. I can round it down to 340,000 yuan for you," Jiajun said.
By now, Gu Heng had returned to his seat on the booth sofa, listening to the price Jiajun had quoted without much emotional fluctuation, he nodded and said, "Okay, bring me that set.
However, before ordering the drinks, I have a small request."
"Mr. Gu, please say!"
A 340,000 yuan order! It even exceeded his monthly sales target by 40,000 yuan; not to mention a small request, right now if Mr. Gu asked him to shout 'dad' out loud, he would do it without hesitation.
"It's nothing difficult.
Not to keep things from you, today is my first time coming to a bar like this, and ordering all this wine isn't for anything but to create some wonderful memories for my first time.
Just this one thing, can you satisfy it for me?"
"Absolutely!"
