But..."
But is just a conjunction, indicating a transition.
The most feared word in speaking is "but".
The previous words are all very good, but "but" is to pave the way for the latter.
When Jiang Hao heard these two words, his heart was shocked. He knew that the pawnshop was going to wield their sword.
"But you can't produce the invoice, joint guarantee card, function card, or even the tag of the watch box, which will greatly affect the price. You know, if there is a problem, we will be responsible for it." The manager said sincerely.
Jiang Hao naturally knew what he meant by "there is a problem". He was afraid that his watch was not obtained properly and was stolen.
"So we offer this watch for ¥120,000."
¥120,000...
¥120,000...
¥120,000!
Jiang Hao had never seen what 120,000 looked like in one go, but he still resolutely took the watch back and put it on his wrist.
"I'll think about it. Goodbye."
After saying that, he left the pawnshop without looking back.
This is really too much. A watch worth ¥1.2 million, and they only offer me ¥120,000. Even if I don't have much money, I can't sell it at such a low price.
Jiang Hao felt that these guys were a bunch of vampires.
But this trip was not in vain. At least after being identified by experts, this watch is indeed a genuine Vacheron Constantin and worth over a million.
Jiang Hao was unwilling to give up, so he went to two pawn shops again. The results were similar. The watch was fine and absolutely genuine, but the price was very low. The highest price was 166,000.
This price was far from Jiang Hao's expectations. He naturally hoped to sell the reward at a high price after getting it with great difficulty. I will go to the auction company tomorrow to ask and see what the situation is.
When he went back, Jiang Hao didn't want to take a taxi and squeezed on the bus to go home. It was already evening after all this trouble. He ate a bowl of noodles downstairs and went upstairs.
When he entered the door, he saw that the young couple who shared the house had returned and were cooking in the kitchen. The two sides greeted each other and Jiang Hao went to his room.
Lying on the bed, he opened the system manual again and continued to study the contents above, fearing that he would miss anything. He wanted to understand this system thoroughly, after all, it was related to his life and future happiness.
In this way, time passed little by little, from 6 pm to 12 pm, Jiang Hao suppressed his excitement and let himself close his eyes to sleep.
The next morning, after washing up and having breakfast downstairs, Jiang Hao took the bus to the company, a more than ten-story office building, which looked quite impressive from the outside, with a big sign of "Anxinda Insurance Company" hanging on it.
Taking the elevator to the 7th floor, the floor where their business department is located. Jiang Hao saw many colleagues busy when he entered the door. Xiaoyu saw Jiang Hao coming and came over to ask, "Brother Jiang, how was your harvest yesterday?"
"No order was signed." Jiang Hao said calmly.
Xiaoyu looked at him with concern in her eyes: "You are in danger, you are the third from the bottom."
At this time, a woman wearing a sexy dress put down her makeup mirror, glanced at Jiang Hao with disdain, and said with scarlet lips: "Xiaoyu, you can't persuade this kind of person. If you don't have the ability, just admit that you don't have the ability. Can you use your special skills? You have a good appearance, but you are a stubborn person. You deserve to be eliminated."
Xiaoyu pushed her glasses and said quickly: "Sister Ma Su, Brother Jiang works very hard."
"What's the use of working hard? There are many people working hard these days. How many successful people have you seen? If you have capital, you should use it. When you are old, you can't use it even if you want to." Ma Su said with disdain. This is how it is these days. People laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes. Having money is the king, and having no money is a cuckold.
Jiang Hao ignored Ma Su and opened a document on the computer. After a while of typing, a resignation letter was freshly produced in just two minutes.
Yes, Jiang Hao came to resign today.
Knocked on the manager's door with the printing paper.
"Come in."
Jiang Hao pushed the door open and went in. "Manager, I have something to talk to you about."
The manager was in his thirties, wearing a formal suit and tie, with his hair combed meticulously, looking like a successful person. When he saw that the person who came in was Jiang Hao, his face became serious and he said, "Yesterday I announced the elimination system for the bottom three in performance in the office. What, are you here to beg for mercy? I tell you..."
Jiang Hao knew that this guy was going to start a long speech. In the brainwashing class, he always had a set of things to say. He didn't need to drink water for an hour, and the content was never repeated.
Jiang Hao put the resignation letter in his hand on the table and pushed it forward. The manager was stunned when he saw the three words "resignation letter" on it, and looked up at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao said calmly, "Manager, I'm here to resign."
The manager paused for a few seconds, his face eased a lot, and said, "Actually, I see your efforts. I can give you another chance. You can try harder next month."
Jiang Hao smiled faintly, "No need, manager, goodbye."
Without giving the other party a chance to speak again, Jiang Hao went straight out of the manager's office. The manager looked at Jiang Hao's back and his face darkened.
He returned to his seat, took off his suit, rolled up his sleeves, found a cardboard box, and began to pack his things.
At this time, Xiaoyu ran over and asked, "Brother Jiang, you really resigned." The other colleagues in the room also cast their eyes over.
"Yes, I resigned." Jiang Hao answered while packing his things.
"What are you going to do in the future?" Xiaoyu asked with concern.
Jiang Hao laughed, "Haha, i can't starve to death, just find another job."
A male colleague Wu Jinsong came over and said, "Yes, Jiang brother works hard, there is no place where he can't develop. In our insurance company, we bury talents."
Ma Su said venomously, "Stubborn guys can't become talents anywhere."
At this time, Wu Jinsong accidentally saw the watch on Jiang Hao's hand and exclaimed, "Jiang brother, your watch, it can't be real."
Xiaoyu beside Jiang Hao looked over curiously. She didn't know much about watches and didn't know what brand Jiang Hao's watch was. She asked, "Wu Jinsong, why are you so surprised, isn't it just a watch?"
Wu Jinsong is a watch enthusiast, of course, just an enthusiast. His strange hobby is caused by a saying circulating in society.
Some people say 'poor people play with cars and rich people play with watches'. Playing with cars is a comparison, while wearing a famous watch is a reflection of personal taste. Not showing it can better show the noble status and connotation.
Wu Jinsong felt that this sentence was very pretentious and thus fell in love with watches. However, he learned about watches mainly through picture magazines and the Internet and was very familiar with many world brands.
Wu Jinsong came up to Jiang Hao, grabbed Jiang Hao's hand which was packing and looked at it carefully. Jiang Hao felt awkward having his hand grabbed by a man, "What are you doing?"
"Brother Jiang, let me take a closer look. Damn, it can't be a Vacheron Constantin classic model. I remember this watch costs more than one million!"
Wu Jinsong looked at Jiang Hao in shock.
