Chapter 503: Chapter 503

If it weren’t for Huo Feng suddenly bringing it up, Huo Mingshan would have never known that Sangzhi had taken a part-time job during the summer vacation!

In Huo Mingshan’s eyes, everything Sangzhi did was right, except for wasting it on his son...

A part-time job is a good thing for high school students!

Earning money is one thing, another is the accumulation of social experience, enhancing one’s social skills.

So, hearing that Pu Sangzhi had taken up a part-time job, Huo Mingshan was in such a good mood, he even thought about going to support her!

Huo Mingshan, who acts upon his decisions immediately, planned to visit the Metersbonwe Store on Tangxia Street this afternoon to see Pu Sangzhi and also buy a set of clothes to support her!

By around four in the afternoon, the number of customers in Metersbonwe Store began to gradually increase.

Pu Sangzhi also began to get busy...

As a new clerk, she usually wouldn’t compete with senior clerks for customers.

When customers came into the store, if Sangzhi saw an old customer being greeted by another, she would stand still and not compete.

There were only a few senior staff in the store, so only after they had all attended to customers would Sangzhi start helping the next one.

She typically targeted middle-aged women shopping for their sons or male students who came alone...

Since Pu Sangzhi was stationed in the men’s section, the proportion of her customers had solidified into males over two days. Dealing with male customers came more naturally to her.

At that moment, Pu Sangzhi was greeting a middle-aged woman who had come to buy clothes for her son, eagerly recommending several sets of the season’s newest collections.

While the young man was changing clothes in the fitting room, the middle-aged woman waited outside, and Sangzhi took the opportunity to chat with her, building a closer relationship with the customer.

Her sweet talk certainly suited the sales role, vital for luring in customers.

So, after two days, Pu Sangzhi had already put on a different face...

A face that greatly resembled Huo Feng’s...

A face incredibly worldly and mature...

Even though this wasn’t the real Pu Sangzhi, she didn’t dislike or hate this facade.

When the young man emerged from the fitting room, Pu Sangzhi quickly stepped ahead of the middle-aged woman, immediately walked up to him, and began adjusting his untidy collar.

The young man, seeming to be about 16, blushed as he faced Sangzhi at such close proximity...

"Here, take a look in the mirror."

After Sangzhi had fixed his collar, she guided him to the mirror, "How does it look? Quite good, right? Your pale skin makes this shirt look fresher and more vibrant. I think you should take it."

The young man blushed and nodded, then immediately turned to the middle-aged woman and said, "I’ll take this one."

The middle-aged woman, surprised by his decisiveness, repeated, "Are you sure you don’t want to look at others?"

The young man firmly replied, "I one, I’ll take it!"

The middle-aged woman then raised another set of clothes she was holding, "Do you want to try on this one? I think it suits you better."

At this moment, Sangzhi intervened, "The one your mom is holding is also nice, why don’t you try it?"

Upon hearing Sangzhi speak, the young man nodded without hesitation, "I’ll try it."

Then, the young man took the outfit from his mother’s hands and went back into the fitting room.

Everything was going smoothly, and Pu Sangzhi could be confident that this mother and son would at least buy one set of clothes.

While waiting for the young man to come out of the fitting room, Sangzhi turned around and suddenly saw

on the other side, a young couple talking to Han Lei. The girl asked Han Lei, "How much is this piece of clothing?"

Without even glancing at the tag, Han Lei immediately answered, "It’s on a 10% discount now, after which it’s $189."

The girl held the clothes and let out a sound of disdain, "Can it be cheaper?"

Han Lei directly refused, "It’s already discounted; it can’t be cheaper."

The girl then said, "It’s too expensive, make it cheaper. We’ll come again."

Han Lei continued to refuse, "That’s not possible."

Seeing him so adamant, the girl pouted, placed the clothes back, and pulled the young man beside her, "Forget it, let’s not take it. A T-shirt for $189 is really too expensive."

Han Lei inexplicably folded the clothes and hung them back in their original place on the rack...

From afar, Sangzhi couldn’t help herself and hurriedly approached, taking over for Han Lei to stand in front of the young couple, "Currently, our store is having a promotion of $88 off on purchases over $600. You can buy more pieces and still get a discount."

The couple glanced at Sangzhi, and the girl asked again, "Can this piece be any cheaper? If so, we’ll buy it for a couple’s set..."

Sangzhi naturally nodded, "Since you are buying a couple’s set, I can help you match them. This T-shirt, for instance, can be paired with black capris."

Pu Sangzhi quickly took out a pair of black capri pants from one of the racks, held them up for them to see, "The same style is also available in the women’s section. If you think they’re suitable, you can take two set, and the price for two sets would be around..."

Pu Sangzhi was about to check the price of the pants when Han Lei interjected, "Adding up the pants and the shirts, two sets after the discount would cost 698."

Pu Sangzhi continued, "After the discount, 698, and then minus 88, all you need is 610. That’s not too expensive, right?"

The girl pouted, "610 for two sets of clothes is still pretty expensive. Can’t it be cheaper?"

Pu Sangzhi said helplessly, "This is a branded store, and this is already quite a cheap price. If you still think it’s expensive, I can recommend some other styles for you. Let’s look over here..."

Pu Sangzhi didn’t give up on this couple and very enthusiastically gestured for them to follow.

Han Lei, on the other hand, didn’t say a word, just quietly watching her greet the customers.

The young couple did follow Pu Sangzhi, and under her recommendation, they looked at several more sets of clothing.

Eventually, under Pu Sangzhi’s guidance, they settled on a set of couple outfits for 489 yuan. Googlᴇ search 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩

At that time, a middle-aged woman and her son couldn’t wait for Pu Sangzhi and ended up buying two sets of clothes for 568 yuan from another clerk.

So, because Pu Sangzhi was trying to take care of this and losing track of that, she lost out!

About this, Pu Sangzhi was speechless.

After the customers left, she specifically pulled Han Lei aside and said, "I just brought in customers for you, and there you were, acting like it was none of your business, just left me hanging there. How is that supposed to work? You need to be more flexible!"

Han Lei gave her a bland look. Normally, he would just give perfunctory responses, but this time he retorted, "I didn’t see you sharing any sales with me."

Pu Sangzhi was momentarily choked by his retort, but quickly said with conviction, "The customers I kept, naturally the sales go to me. What I meant was, I had already kept the customers in the store. You should have taken over to serve those two customers, instead of washing your hands of it and leaving them to me. Otherwise, what was the point of me getting them to stay?"

Admittedly, Pu Sangzhi’s points made sense, but Han Lei still responded, "Did you leave any room for me to say anything just now?"

"Hey, why would you say that?"

Pu Sangzhi was immediately a bit infuriated by Han Lei, realizing he wasn’t just the quiet type; he could talk back and had a temper too.

Still, how could he not distinguish between what’s beneficial and harmful? Why did he have to think that way about others?

"Well, you just wait."

Pu Sangzhi said to Han Lei, "I’ll pass the customers I catch later directly to you. With opportunities delivered on a silver platter, let’s see how you handle it!"

Because of this stubborn attitude, Han Lei had nothing much to say.

Later, whenever Pu Sangzhi was free, she would bring a customer over to Han Lei, leaving him fully in charge...

It turned out, he was still terrible!

Even with customers handed to him on a platter, he couldn’t hold a conversation, much less say the right things, and he would soon drive the customers away...

In the end, the customers handled by him either left the store or went back to find Pu Sangzhi...

With a day full of hustles, Pu Sangzhi felt completely overwhelmed, yet her sales weren’t as good as yesterday!

The past two days each saw sales over 6000, but today, she only made just over 3000—a significant setback...

Pu Sangzhi felt she was dragged down by Han Lei!

After 9 PM, when the store was relatively quiet, Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao went to check their sales for the day.

At that time, the store manager wasn’t there, and the old staff were all inside having dinner, leaving just the three newcomers outside.

So, the straightforward Ye Qingcao directly addressed Han Lei, "Hey, little brother, why don’t you come with me tomorrow? I’ll teach you!"

Over there, while counting the merchandise, Han Lei glanced at Ye Qingcao and flatly refused, "No need."

Ye Qingcao then said, "You’ve been dragging Sangzhi down! Just come with me tomorrow!"

Han Lei’s tone grew sour, "Mind your own business."

"Hey! What’s wrong with you?"

Ye Qingcao got a bit heated, "We’re trying to help you, we also hope your sales go up!"

Han Lei turned his back to them, ignoring them outright.

Ye Qingcao snorted, muttering, "What a weirdo... With that attitude, he should just stay home and act like a young master instead of working here..."

Just as she finished speaking, suddenly, a special customer came into the store.

Upon seeing the customer, Pu Sangzhi was visibly delighted and exclaimed, "Professor Huo!"

Huo Mingshan had arrived.

And, after Huo Mingshan entered the store, the second person he greeted turned out to be Han Lei, "Hey, kid, you’re here too? Working as well?"

Han Lei replied sullenly, "Yeah."
