Chapter 9 It's Just A Penny

"What did you say? Are you here to buy a car?" Nick Benson's voice sharpened with surprise.

The next moment, Nick Benson and several salesmen next to him couldn't help laughing.

The people who came here to buy a car were rich. How can there be a boy dressed like this?

"Martin, this is a Lamborghini car store. We sell luxury cars here, not bicycles." Nick Benson said with a stifling smile.

Martin James frowned, "Of course, I know this is Lamborghini car store. I came here to buy a car. Why? Am I not welcome?"

Martin James could feel that Nick Benson looked down on him.

"Of course, we welcome you. However, are you sure you can afford a car here?" Nick Benson had a disdainful smile on his face.

The several salesmen around also smiled one after another.

"Do you know, boy, that we have cars here that costs more than a million dollars?"

"In other words, will you be able to afford a Lamborghini? You've got to be kidding me!"

They would rather believe that there are ghosts in this world rather than believe that a kid with cheap clothes can afford a Lamborghini.

"A bunch of bastards who look down on people." What Martin James hated the most were this kind of discrimination against the poor.

"What are you talking about, boy?"

As they heard Martin James's words, the several salesmen next to him were immediately displeased. In front of those big shots, they were fearful. However, in front of a boy with cheap clothes like this, they were not afraid.

"Brothers, this is my old classmate in elementary school. Let me receive him." Nick Benson waved his hands at these sales.

"Nick, he really can't afford a Lamborghini. Are you sure you want to waste your time receiving him?" Several salesmen have a skeptical look on their faces.

Nick Benson smiled and leaned in front of the sellers and whispered in a low voice:

"Doesn't he want to pretend to be rich? Then I won't let him pretend. I'll see how he ends up later."

According to Nick Benson's guess, Martin James probably came to apply for sales. But when Martin James saw him, to save face, he pretended to say that he was here to buy a car.

"Didn't you say you want to buy a car? Then I'll show you the car. I'll see if you can take out the money to buy it. Then I'll see how you can still pretend!" Nick Benson thought.

Once Martin James was exposed, Nick Benson was ready to taunt and mock Martin James!

Nick Benson smiled and looked at Martin James and asked, "Martin, tell me what kind of car you want to see."

"Lamborghini Daniel." Martin James didn't think about it.

"Daniel?"

Everyone was surprised again. Then, they covered their mouths and laughed again.

Daniel was Lamborghini's flagship sports car which costs around seven or eight million dollars. People who can afford this car in C City were members of the top rich second generation!

Nick Benson smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll show you the car."

After saying that, Nick Benson took Martin James to the exhibition hall while the several salesmen present followed him, ready to see Martin James make a fool of himself.

Led by Nick Benson, Martin James arrived in front of an orange Lamborghini.

The appearance, the color, how cool the style is!

"It's still great!" Martin James stared at the car and nodded with satisfaction.

The supercar he once imagined was now in front of him, and it was readily available.

"How much is the exact price of this car?" Martin James looked at Nick Benson.

"The price of the car is 7.55 million dollars!"

After Nick Benson finished quoting the price, he looked at Martin James, ready to see him make a fool of himself.

Nick Benson could imagine that Martin James will be stunned by the price.

"7.55 million dollars? It's okay, it's not expensive." Martin James waved calmly and seemed to turn a blind eye to the money.

"Not bad? Not expensive?" The few salesmen next to him, once again covered their mouth and sneered.

Nick Benson also sneered, "Martin James, do you know how large $7.55 million is?"

"Of course, I know, it's just a penny." Martin James disagreed.

"What? Penny?"

The several salesmen at the store, as well as Nick Benson, finally couldn't help laughing.

He said that seven or eight million was a penny. They thought it was a big joke.

Nick Benson finally couldn't stand it.

"Martin James, you were too good at pretending, weren't you? You said that it was a penny, right? All right, take out the money if you can! If you can come up with so much money, I, Nick Benson will eat a ton of shit!"

Nick Benson chuckled in his heart and said, "I don't think you can pretend!"

"Give us the money if you can!" the other salesmen also followed suit.

How could Martin James not know what Nick Benson had in mind?

"Just charge it to my credit card."

Martin James took the bank card out of his pocket directly.

"This is, Citibank diamond card?"

When Martin James took out the card, the several salesmen present could not help but shout.

This is because they clearly recognized the card in the hands of Martin James, it is the diamond card of Citibank. It is the highest-grade VIP card issued by Citibank. At least tens of millions of dollars must be deposited in the card in order to get this card!

In the past, when distinguished guests came to buy a car, they used this kind of card.

When Nick Benson saw the card, he froze. He felt a basin of cold water poured on him, from head to toe, which numbed him all over.

Being able to hold this card shows that Martin James was definitely not a poor boy, but a rich man!

"$7.55 million, I will pay by card! I won't bargain since I don't need that." Martin James handed the card to Nick Benson.

"You, you!"

Nick Benson stared wide-eyed and looked at Martin James, as if he were a monster. He never dreamed that, Martin James would be able to take out a diamond card.

"What are you waiting for? Get the card!" Martin James frowned.

"Yes. Yes!"

Nick Benson hurriedly held out his trembling hands and took over the heavy diamond card, his face looked a little pale.

At this moment, he would never dare to show any disrespect to Martin James.

Then, Nick Benson, holding the bank card, hurriedly walked towards the manager's office.

Martin James turned his attention to the next few salesmen.

The salesmen turned pale with fear and bowed their heads, afraid to look Martin James in the eye. After all, they had all laughed at Martin James before.

They didn't imagine that he was a person who can hold a Citibank diamond card. If he want to get even with them, they wouldn't be able to afford it.

In a minute.

A fat-bellied middle-aged man ran out quickly.

"Hello, Mr. James. I'm the manager of our store. Welcome to our store." The middle-aged man was all smiles.

"A warm welcome? So far, no one has asked me to sit down, no one has poured me a glass of water. On the contrary, since I entered the store, the sales staff of your store has been cynical to me. This is what you call a warm welcome?" Martin James shook his head and sneered.

The manager's face darkened after hearing the speech.

"What are you doing? How dare you snub the distinguished guest? Apologize to the distinguished guest as soon as possible!" The manager yelled at the sales.

"Mr. James, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

These sales hastened to apologize to Martin James.

The manager continued to yell at them.

"You guys, all the bonuses are deducted this year! What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and pour coffee for the distinguished guest!"

"Yes!" After a few nods, the salesman hurriedly turned and ran away.

At this time, Nick Benson came back here with his bank card in his hand, but he looked pale and panicked.

"Have you swiped my card, Nick?" Martin James looked at Nick Benson lightly.

"Yes. It's done. 7.55 million dollars, and the card is a success!"

Nick Benson bowed his head and handed the bank card back to Martin James with both hands.

At this time, Nick Benson's heart was still in turmoil. He never thought that his once inconspicuous old classmate Martin James, had really become a tycoon!

Although he couldn't believe how Martin James did it, it's an indisputable fact.

Of course, he was more nervous and afraid.

Martin James took the card and said, "Nick, if I remember correctly, you just said earlier that if I could spend 7.55 million dollars on a car, you will eat a ton of shit, right?"

Nick Benson's facial muscles twitched suddenly.

He secretly said to himself, "Martin James would not really let him keep his promise, would he?"

"Martin, I was just kidding." Nick Benson squeezed out an ugly smile.

"Really? But you mocked me consciously or unintentionally, and even wanted to see me make a fool of myself. What is that? You're not going to tell me that's a joke, are you? I'm not an idiot!" Martin James sneered.

After hearing the words, Nick Benson's face changed with fright. He knew that Martin James could afford a Lamborghini, indicating that he had become rich. How could he afford to mess with him?

What's more, Martin James bought Lamborghini here, and as a member of this store, as long as Martin James said a word, he could be fired.

"Martin, I was wrong! I apologize to you! For the sake of us being former classmates, please forgive me!"

Nick Benson begged for mercy. He was afraid.

"Sorry, I didn't know that we were in the same class, so don't get acquainted with me." Martin James sneered.

Then, Martin James looked at the manager and said, "Manager, I don't want to see this man appear in front of me."

"No problem!" The manager smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Then, the manager turned around and yelled at Nick Benson.

"Nick Benson, I'm firing you. Get out of here immediately!"

"Fired?"

When Nick Benson heard this word, his heart suddenly fell into the abyss!

Nick Benson have finally found this good job. Now, it's gone.

At this time, Nick Benson, finally regretted it. He wondered, why did he choose to ridicule Martin James instead of treating Martin James enthusiastically in the first place?

The manager called the security guard not far away and throwed Nick Benson out.

In the store.

"I've already paid the money. Can I take the car?" Martin James said to the manager.

"There are still some formalities to go through for the Mr. James' car. We'll take care of it for you. You can't take it until it is done. It will take about a day." The manager said with a smile.

"All right, when you're done, send it to me directly. I'll go first." Martin James said faintly.

"No problem! I'll send it to Mr. James." The manager followed Martin James with a smile on his face and respectfully saw Martin James off.
