Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.
Chapter 98 True flattery must be convincing and subtle.
When Li Xiaofeng entered the Jiang family home again, President Jiang was slightly surprised, but still greeted him warmly: "Li Xiaofeng, right? Come in, come in and sit down!"
"Dad, Xiaofeng is planning to buy some more real estate from our family this time, just like last time!"
"Oh, how much are you planning to buy this time?" President Jiang asked, slightly surprised.
Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Just like last time, I still want to buy 100 million!"
Jiang Xueying said with some surprise, "Oh, you're going to buy another 100 million? How much will you have to pay in monthly installments? Can you afford it?"
Li Xiaofeng pointed at Jiang Xueying with a grin and said, "Uncle Jiang, look, your little darling is letting in the wind!"
"How annoying!"
Jiang Xueying habitually punched Li Xiaofeng lightly, but then seemed to realize it was a bit inappropriate, forgetting that she was at home. She looked at her father and saw that he didn't seem to have much of an expression, which reassured her.
President Jiang glanced at Jiang Xueying, sighed, and said, "There's nothing I can do. A daughter is like a tree that grows up and leaves home. No matter how much I cherish her, she will eventually get married!"
"Uncle Jiang, how much of a discount can I get this time?"
"A maximum of five points!"
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Jiang!"
Hearing Li Xiaofeng agree so readily, President Jiang asked with some surprise, "Why did you agree so quickly? Aren't you going to try and negotiate a lower price with me?"
Li Xiaofeng said with a grin, "Didn't Uncle Jiang just say it would be a maximum of five percent? What price can I offer then?"
"So, are you still going to buy it?"
"Of course I'll buy it!"
Actually, it's not that Li Xiaofeng didn't want to bargain, but rather that the market this year is better than last year, housing prices have risen slightly, and real estate companies are doing much better.
Based on this year's market conditions, Li Xiaofeng judged that the five percent discount that General Manager Jiang could offer was already within his acceptable price range.
One should not be too greedy; if one is too greedy, one may not get anything.
Now that he had reached his expected level, Li Xiaofeng decided not to argue any further.
President Jiang looked at Li Xiaofeng with a smile, and asked with some curiosity, "I remember you weren't this easy to talk to last time!"
"That's because it didn't meet my expectations last time. This time it did, so I can be more reasonable!"
"Good lad, you know when to advance and retreat at such a young age, you're not greedy, you have a bright future!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Uncle Jiang. I'll have to trouble you again this time. I still want to do the zero down payment option!"
"Okay, no problem, but let's play a few more rounds, you and me!"
"Alright, let's play a few more games. To be honest, I haven't touched a chessboard since we played together last time!"
This time, Li Xiaofeng gave Jiang a handicap. He failed to attack when he should have and failed to defend when he should have. He played several intense games with General Jiang, but won by only one game.
However, this time it made President Jiang very excited.
Last time he was utterly defeated and routed, but this time, although he still lost, he fought Li Xiaofeng to a standstill, which made him feel that his chess skills had improved a lot, and he was very satisfied.
Many people simply don't know how to flatter.
True flattery must be convincing and subtle, making the person feel comfortable and happy.
If Li Xiaofeng had given away too much, and lost miserably, his opponent would never have felt any pleasure.
The reason he took the initiative to flatter President Jiang today was twofold: firstly, he had promised Jiang Xueying not to embarrass her father too much; and secondly, he needed President Jiang's help.
It's not about buying a house, it's about advertising.
To sell their properties more effectively, real estate companies need to advertise, especially given the current sluggish real estate market.
By getting some advertising from General Manager Jiang, we can not only increase the company's advertising business, but also show Liu Qianqian and Sun Wenxuan that we have some connections and don't have to rely on them completely.
Seeing that President Jiang was happy even after losing the game, Li Xiaofeng seized the opportunity to say, "President Jiang, I recently started an advertising company. Could you possibly help me out?"
"Oh, weren't you planning to speculate on real estate? What, are you now planning to start an advertising company? You're still in school, can you handle all that?"
Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I'm just an investor in this advertising company. The actual operation is handled by others, so it won't take up too much of my time!"
I'm just here today to freeload; you're going to advertise here anyway, so I figure it's better to benefit myself than someone else!
Mr. Jiang smiled and nodded: "Okay, then go to the company's advertising department another day to make contact, and I'll put in a good word for you."
"Let's get this straight, I'll take care of you, but you have to get things done properly. Don't be like Dapeng, making a complete mess of things. If it weren't for his dad's influence, I definitely wouldn't let him do it!"
"President Jiang, don't worry. If I don't do a good job for you, I'll just walk away without you even having to say a word!"
After having lunch at the Jiang family's house, as everyone was preparing for their afternoon nap, Li Xiaofeng, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching, didn't go into the guest room that had been arranged for him, but instead secretly followed Jiang Xueying into her boudoir.
"What are you doing? Get out of here! If my family sees this, I'm finished!" Jiang Xueying said anxiously, trying to push Li Xiaofeng out.
"It's okay, you're the one who's finished, not me. Anyway, I'm not afraid of your family seeing this!"
"Get out of here right now!"
Li Xiaofeng said with a grin, "If you keep pushing me like that, I'm going to scream! I'll tell your family that you dragged me in here to assault me!"
Jiang Xueying was both amused and exasperated, and angrily punched him lightly: "Do you think my family will believe your nonsense?"
"Whether you believe it or not is not important. What's important is, little beauty, you probably don't want your family to know that we're together, right?"
"What do you want?"
"Don't you know what I want? It's the holidays now, and I don't know when you'll have time to come see me. I have to find a chance to see you as soon as possible!"
"You scoundrel, why do you always have so many problems? I think you're just getting revenge for not letting me come to my house for Chinese New Year. Now that you have the chance, you want to bully me at my house, don't you?"
Li Xiaofeng hugged her tightly and gave her a princess carry, saying with a grin, "For me, the reason is not important, the result is not important, the process is the most important."
Women also need to learn to have some perspective and responsibility; keep your mouth shut and don't let your family hear.
Jiang Xueying's face was flushed, and she wrapped her arms around Li Xiaofeng's neck, saying stubbornly, "I won't close it, hmph!"
Li Xiaofeng grinned mischievously: "You don't have to shut up, I'll gag you later!"
