Chapter 893 Gift
Outside the Golden Building, among the crowd.
The female store manager noticed the restlessness of the crowd, and a hint of mockery emerged in her eyes. They opened a store to do business, and if the activity was easy, wouldn’t it be a loss for their parents not to know them?
"I see everyone is very enthusiastic. How about this, we don't need 10 seconds, but 5 seconds. As long as we can persist for 5 seconds, we will succeed!" the female store manager kept encouraging.
In the crowd, Guo Ran stared at Jiang Ning. He remembered that when school started, he was not that tall yet, and seemed to be about the same height as himself.
She had forgotten when Jiang Ning had grown taller. Although he had grown taller, he was still thin, with the thinness that was unique to teenagers.
She knew that Jiang Ning had good grades in sports. Gao Heshuai and others in the same office had talked about Jiang Ning before, saying that even if he was not good at studying, it might not be a bad idea for him to pursue a career in sports.
But, he is just a teenager after all. The fitness coach and the uncle on the construction site were all unable to grab the gold brick. Asking Jiang Ning to try, isn't that a joke?
Guo Ran has grown up and is no longer the ignorant and naive little girl. She has a clear understanding of the world and does not think that there are perfect people in the world.
She is okay with imperfection.
"Forget it." Guo Ran said. If Jiang Ning stepped forward and everyone saw his appearance, they might laugh!
As his mentor, Guo Ran should stand up, stand in front of him, help him solve his problems, and protect him from the wind and rain.
Jiang Ning did not show off. He remained calm and nodded gently: "Okay."
Seeing his reaction, Le Qin's face was full of regret. It was a pity that she couldn't get a glimpse of this great master, the restorer of ancient martial arts.
"Why is it catching gold bricks? How much better would it be if it was a street challenge?" Le Qin secretly complained.
When they were communicating, the audience burst out with dissatisfaction: "It's funny, what's the difference between changing it from 10 seconds to 5 seconds? It's still the same if you can't lift it up!"
"Let's go!" Someone turned around and left.
The female store manager thought to herself: "If you can afford it, can I still open my store?"
Facing everyone's dissatisfaction, the female store manager put on a smile and continued, "Oh, I understand everyone's enthusiasm. From now on, not only can everyone take the initiative to challenge to catch the gold bricks, we will also randomly select people to catch the gold bricks. As long as you are selected by us, even if you can't catch the gold bricks, you can still get our free acacia beans!"
As she spoke, she showed off a piece of silver jewelry, the so-called Acacia Beans, which was two small silver beans tied with a red string. Under the bright sunlight, the silver awakened the genes immersed in human bones.
The female store manager said: "It's not of poor quality, it's 999 pure silver!"
As soon as this was said, public opinion suddenly subsided. The person who was originally shouting the loudest, seeing that there was an opportunity to make money, immediately started: "Hey, isn't it just grabbing gold bricks? All you need is hands! Choose me to grab it!"
"Sister, I have hands too!" a big brother shouted. These are pure silver beans. It would be great to take them home for free and give them to my children.
"What do you mean by sister? Isn't she a female college student who just graduated?"
"What's going on? Have I traveled to the Three Kingdoms? Why did I see Diao Chan?" an old man started to make a fuss.
The righteous and straightforward Le Qin frowned and shouted: "You guys are really going too far!"
Guo Ran thought she would use her eloquence to educate the crowd, but Le Qin changed the subject and said jokingly: "You will scare my sister if you do this!"
With a few compliments and a few jokes, the air became cheerful, and the crow's feet of the female manager blossomed with laughter.
She scanned and identified a little girl who was a few years old. The little girl looked incredulous.
The parents behind her quickly pushed her, and the little girl walked forward confusedly and did not try to grab the gold bricks.
The female store manager put a red string on her finger in public, and the silver beans were particularly eye-catching on the little girl's delicate wrist.
When everyone realized this, those who had children at home quickly pushed their children to the front, and those who didn't have children... didn't have children.
For a moment, the crowd was in an uproar.
But still no one took the initiative to grab the gold bricks, knowing that they couldn't do it, and just wanted to win the prize and get some silver jewelry.
The female store manager searched the crowd, and Jiang Ning activated his spiritual power to secretly add a halo to Guo Ran.
Humans are strange creatures. She noticed Guo Ran, a beautiful girl, at first sight, but to be honest, she didn't like her.
Because she is old.
However, the female store manager knows that beautiful girls are born as a resource. She is in charge of many sales people. Beautiful salespeople are a kind of competitiveness in themselves. If their personalities are not too cold, their performance will generally not be bad.
The female store manager already had the answer in her mind, but as they were in marketing, in order to whet customers’ appetite, her eyes were still scanning the crowd.
The onlookers held their breath, waiting for the female store manager to call their number.
After a while, she called out, "That beautiful girl, the one wearing a white cotton jacket and a black bag!"
At first, Guo Ran didn't realize it was her. Le Qin looked excited and touched her: "Ran Ran, it's you, it's you!"
"Ah?" Guo Ran then realized that she was chosen.
But, she doesn’t know how to catch it?
Le Qin suddenly had an idea and asked, "Sister, can I ask our friends to help us catch the gold bricks?"
As she finished speaking, the female manager also noticed the boy next to them. She subconsciously prepared to refuse, but then she remembered that this girl had just called her her sister when she was making a fuss in the crowd.
The female store manager held the microphone and said, "As long as this beautiful lady in the white cotton-padded jacket agrees, it's fine!"
"Ranran, Ranran, please agree quickly!" Le Qin urged!
At this time, many people's eyes were on Guo Ran, waiting for her answer. She no longer hesitated and said directly: "Oh, okay, Jiang Ning, help me."
Le Qin immediately asked: "Sister, according to what you said, if my friend can grab the gold brick, he can also get a reward, right?"
The female store manager couldn't help but smile: "Of course."
She didn't expect that this young woman in front of her, who seemed to have a high emotional intelligence, would actually have unrealistic fantasies...
She felt in her heart that it was great to be young and still be able to daydream.
Unlike her when she was younger, she couldn't sleep well.
Le Qin pushed Jiang Ning and asked him to go on stage quickly so that she could test the demeanor of the great master!
Guo Ran was quite speechless. She knew that Le Qin was a straightforward person with no bad intentions, but was sometimes impulsive and impatient.
"I will give the silver beans to Jiang Ning then... Well, it's decided." Guo Ran said, and she felt a little better.
At this time, someone who had witnessed their conversation laughed and said, "If the young man has the ability, he will definitely be able to catch him!"
"Yes, young people nowadays are very capable!" someone said
The old man who had joked about seeing Diao Chan before said cheerfully, "That's right, when I was young, I grabbed my house with one hand!"
People were joking around, venting their dissatisfaction at not being drawn, and no one thought that the young man could grab the gold brick.
Just kidding, even such big fitness coaches and migrant workers couldn’t do it before!
Five seconds!
Jiang Ning walked closer leisurely. He glanced at the gold bricks in front of him. They were indeed genuine gold bricks. They were trapezoidal in shape, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. A person's palm could not grasp the bottom, making it very difficult to bear any force.
Even so, if someone has practiced it specifically and applied magnesium powder, they might be able to do it.
But the rules of the gold shop require wearing their gloves, which is extremely strict.
"Keep it up, handsome boy!" The female store manager found that he was really handsome, but unfortunately, as a store manager, money is the most important thing.
Jiang Ning put on gloves.
Although Guo Ran knew it was a fantasy, she still encouraged Jiang Ning: "Come on!"
Le Qin waited and watched, very seriously: "Master, you can do it!"
The old man who had spoken many times before, seeing this, laughed out loud: "Young man, this thing is very heavy!"
He had tried it before, but it didn't move at all.
As he finished speaking, Jiang Ning grabbed the gold brick with his left hand and frowned slightly.
"You can't do it anymore, you have to give up..." everyone blurted out, because many challengers before just held the gold brick, exerted force, released it, and shook their hands, and after completing the process, they left with an awkward laugh.
And the young man in front of him would not be surprising either.
Smart parents take this opportunity to quietly send their children to the front and prepare to rely on them with all their strength.
At this moment, some people said: "It's very heavy, it's impossible!"
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Jiang Ning frowned and said, "It is indeed quite heavy."
The next second, he grabbed the gold brick and held it in mid-air.
"Hahaha, I told you it was heavy...eh?" The old man felt like he was struck by lightning and almost thought his eyes were blurry.
His eyes were fixed on the sky, and he started to talk nonsense: "Grandma, you have been dead for thirty years, haven't you? You don't know that I was watching people catching gold at that time. I came to see you while I was talking!"
Guo Ran looked at this scene and felt a magical feeling.
However, the discomfort at the wrist, caused by Le Qin's strong grip, reminded her all the time that this was really happening.
On her face, which was once called a vixen, her beautiful eyes froze, leaving only Jiang Ning's thin shoulders.
Lawyer Le Qin was very rational. She shouted, "Count down! Count down!"
The female store manager was also in shock. The notary next to her raised his voice and shouted, "1, 2, 3..."
Le Qin reminded: "Oops, the timing is too late!"
Jiang Ning grabbed the gold brick with one hand, his arm didn't move at all, and he complained slightly: "I'm tired of grabbing it."
"4, 5, 6, ... 10!"
After counting to this point, Jiang Ning loosened his fingers, and the 50-jin gold brick slammed onto the table with a heavy sound, which also shook the hearts of the onlookers.
The master who likes to be naughty covered his heart, as if he had seen a ghost, and he couldn't be naughty anymore.
The scene was suffocating.
Jiang Ning took off his gloves, took out a wet wipe, and wiped his hands with gentle and graceful movements. He said in a light tone, "You know what, it's a bit difficult."
Guo Ran stared at Jiang Ning's hand intently. It was a very beautiful hand, slender like jade, with distinct joints, beautiful yet not effeminate.
She knew even more clearly how terrifying the power contained in this hand was.
An absurd thought came to Guo Ran's mind: "If he could lift 50 kilograms so easily, doesn't that mean he can lift me up with one hand?"
……
After a brief moment of shock, people finally understood what had happened.
This boy, who was not strong and even thin, actually grabbed the gold brick and completed the challenge!
Le Qin began to ask for the money: "Sister, now that we have done it, can we choose any gold jewelry we want?"
The female manager came back to her senses from her shock and moved her mouth, trying to find an excuse.
Before she could say anything, the next second, Le Qin took out her lawyer's license and her mobile phone: "Sister, I recorded it, and I will keep my word!"
The female store manager was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said enthusiastically, "How could we possibly default on our debt? We are a legitimate store!"
She was secretly shocked. At that time, the leader suggested that she use gold bricks worth millions as prizes. She refused out of caution. Otherwise, gold bricks would be given away today!
She raised her voice and said, "Everyone see, we are definitely not kidding you. Some people can do it!"
The onlookers were very excited. Oh my god, someone can actually pick it up!
The old man came up and wanted to take a look at Jiang Ning's arm. Jiang Ning remembered this unruly old man, and he teased: "My skills can't compare with yours. When you were young, you could grab a house!"
The old man smiled awkwardly: "You kid!"
The female store manager made room and gestured to the counter behind her. She said, "Handsome boy, you can choose any piece of gold jewelry from this counter."
Le Qin took Guo Ran's hand. She was so excited. Getting gold for free, who could resist such temptation?
She told him, "Choose something heavy, heavy! A big gold bracelet!"
Because she was too excited, Le Qin even forgot to praise Jiang Ning's bravery. Her eyes were all on the gold, which had a huge appeal to humans.
After seeing the accessories in the glass cabinet, Le Qin looked disappointed. All she could see were rings, bracelets, necklaces, etc., but no 80g gold bracelet.
Jiang Ning turned her head and asked, "Sister Guo... who do you like?"
Guo Ran was still in a daze, "Ah, me?"
Jiang Ning looked at her dazed look, which was rare, and joked, "Who else could it be?"
Le Qin was speechless. Isn’t she a human?
However, she didn't say anything to disturb them.
Guo Ran looked down at the glass cabinet. The glittering gold ornaments dazzled her. "I don't know."
Jiang Ning: "In that case."
He reached out and knocked on the glass case: "This one."
The female clerk in charge of giving out prizes immediately took out the pair of gold earrings and introduced them:
"This is our new style of earrings, called Butterfly Tassels, made with a polished sand process. Doesn't it look like a dancing butterfly every time it moves? 999 pure gold, net weight 5.9 grams, priced at only... Oh, it's free for you."
The female salesperson lamented their good luck, "This pair of earrings is so exquisite, the labor alone is more than 500 yuan."
Jiang Ning asked: "Do you like it?"
Guo Ran didn't answer, but his eyes said it all.
Jiang Ning made the final decision: "Well, let's go with this."
The female clerk picked up the gold earrings and led them to the cashier to print out the invoice.
While waiting, Le Qin, who was good at observing people's expressions, gave Jiang Ning a look that said "you're awesome" and then she stepped aside to look at the big gold bracelet.
Guo Ran opened his mouth, hesitating to speak, and finally said, "It's too expensive."
Jiang Ning smiled freely and said in a clear voice: "A gift for you."
Guo Ran had a complicated look in her eyes. She said, "No need... Your coming here today is the best gift."
