Chapter 33 The jewelry store encounters gangsters

In the blink of an eye, at the end of the year, on the day before New Year’s Day in 2002, Lin Tao and other eight shareholders came to Yinhui’s flagship store to express their condolences to the employees and to distribute benefits, no matter what position they were in, a bonus of 480 yuan was given. Although it may not look like much, it is “pala beef rice” There are a total of 200 chain stores, and this benefit is that the small hundred thousand is gone. 【 |】But none of the eight shareholders felt sad. The operating income of the two flagship stores and the sixteen small stores has grown steadily. Of course, as a boss, you can't be too stingy. Appropriate rewards are necessary.Since the Yinhui flagship store was full of customers, there was no time for dinner, so Gu Wanchun gathered [-] employees at [-]:[-] in the morning.

Gu Wanchun was full of smiles, and his face was full of spring breeze.Seeing Lin Tao's eight shareholders push the door in, they took the lead in applauding warmly, "Warmly welcome Chairman Lin and all shareholders"

It was the first time for the four girls to encounter this scene, they were very excited, blushing and heartbeating, making the boys in the kitchen swallow their saliva, thinking, if it is worth marrying such a beautiful girl in this life, it will not be in vain, However, I heard that these eight shareholders are four couples of lovers, it seems that there is no hope.The same people, why is there such a big gap, he is the chairman, and we are the waiters.The employees looked at the eight young and sensible, with mixed feelings in their hearts, and they had everything on their minds.

"Next, let the chairman speak for us." There was another round of applause. Lin Tao was in a turbulent mood and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"Hello everyone, you have worked hard. With the joint efforts of everyone, the Yinhui flagship store has achieved initial success. I would like to thank you for your hard work, but this is only the first step for Junlian Co., Ltd. There is still a long way to go in the future. With the development of our company, many of you will enter the ranks of middle-level leading cadres. Therefore, while you are working, don't forget to improve your own quality. Training, your potential will never be buried, time is limited, I just say here I wish everyone a happy new year." After Lin Tao finished speaking, the other shareholders began to congratulate each other, and then they began to give out red envelopes. When there was a tray of red envelopes, the employees burst into even more enthusiastic applause.

After the benefits were distributed, the eight people left the fast food restaurant amid applause. Xiao Xiao let out a sigh of relief, put her arms around Lin Tao's arm and stuck out her tongue mischievously: "Lin Tao, you don't know how nervous he was just now, but seeing your calm look, I hands don't shake anymore."

Lin Tao caressed Xiao Xiao's weak waist, thinking that this little girl was much more generous than before, and hugged him in front of everyone, but Lin Tao glanced at the three pairs next to him, and they were even more generous than their hugs. Tight, Guo Li was hanging on Hu Lin's body.

"Third brother, let's have free time in the morning, gather for dinner at Fugui Building at one o'clock in the afternoon, and return to City K at four o'clock." Hu Lin's proposal was approved by everyone. It's better to separate.Lin Tao and Xiao Xiao were wandering around the shopping street. There were not many people there, and the street was rarely clean, but all the shops opened at nine o'clock.Lin Tao suddenly remembered that the day after tomorrow was Xiao Xiao's birthday, and it seemed that he hadn't bought any expensive gifts for Xiao Xiao in the past few years. Now that the two have confirmed their relationship, Lin Tao naturally can't be too careless.

"Xiao Xiao is your birthday the day after tomorrow, shall I buy you a diamond necklace as a present?"

"Well, as long as you like everything." Xiao Xiao leaned on Lin Tao's shoulder shyly. Now Xiao Xiao is completely lost in the sweetness of being in love with Lin Tao. Even if Lin Tao sold her, she must count the money for Lin Tao .The happiness in the heart of an innocent girl is very simple, as long as Lin Tao treats her well, no matter rich or poor, maybe only the love in college life is the most romantic, without too much realism.

When the two came to Supreme Jewelry Store, the female manager saw that the first customer who came to the door was a golden boy and jade girl. She was very happy and greeted them warmly.

"Today is really rare. The first person to come to the door is such a beautiful person. No matter what you buy, you will get a [-]% discount."

Lin Tao nodded, the [-]% discount is only available to VIPs, it seems that today's luck is good, Lin Tao said with a smile: "Thank you boss, I want to help my girlfriend choose a necklace, and I want the latest style."

The female manager smiled when she heard that, asking for the latest style means that the price is not important, as long as you choose it, you will buy it, the female manager hurriedly said: "You are here today, the company just bought a batch of new products last night, and we are going to buy them on New Year's Day tomorrow." Just launched, there are eight latest styles of necklaces alone, all of which are the latest concepts of internationally renowned design masters, please follow me to the VIP room"

The VIP room is where high-end jewelry is stored, many of which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Of course, the protection is more stringent, as you can tell by looking at the security guards holding electric batons at the anti-theft door.Although the security guards in this jewelry store are not allowed to carry guns, they are equipped with electric batons.Seeing the tall and straight figure of the security guard, you can tell that he is a retired soldier. Waiting for three or five people will definitely not be able to enter the body.

Lin Tao laughed and said, "Boss, you have strict protective measures here. There are three security guards alone."

The female manager smiled sweetly: "Although jewelry stores are all insured, necessary security measures are indispensable. This is also for the safety of customers." The two people are so smooth and smooth, they are not here to step on the plate. I will see if you buy it or not. The female manager had this idea, so she directly opened a safe, took out a velvet box from it, and gently opened it. , Xiao Xiao covered her small mouth and exclaimed.

"This necklace is called Love in Time and Space. The necklace is made of platinum. The pattern refers to the totem text in ancient Egypt, which means that you can travel through time and space to obtain eternal life. This pendant is a time-space wheel made of platinum, surrounded by twelve African natural diamonds. , in the middle is the Indian Kashmir sapphire." The voice of the female manager seemed to be testing Lin Tao's sincerity.I said in my heart, boy, I will see if you bought it for real or a fake one. The old lady doesn't rub the sand in her eyes, but the female manager sees Xiao Xiao's expression like a pure female college student, so she is unlikely to be a female thief.

"That's it, Xiao Xiao, do you like it?"

"En-en-" Xiao Xiao is like a chicken eating rice.

"This can be used to swipe your card—come and I will bring it to you." Lin Tao has already picked up the necklace and put it around Xiao Xiao's neck. At this time, Xiao Xiao is wearing a dark blue stand-up collar wool sweater with this platinum necklace with sapphires and diamonds , adding a third of elegance and nobility to the pure and charming Xiao Xiao.The female manager held the credit card a little silly, and said to herself, I haven't quoted yet, it's 88, oh my god, if I were ten years younger, I would be willing to be a kid for him.The female manager swiped the credit card with mixed emotions such as touch, jealousy, envy, etc., and then handed the receipt, credit card, certificate and other things to Lin Tao. Lin Tao glanced at the receipt and felt a little bit in his heart." 88" is not a small number, but it's worth it. Seeing Xiao Xiao so happy, everything is worth it. Jin Zhen'ai was let go back then, and now Xiao Xiao must be cherished by her side.Lin Tao put the box and the receipt in the bag and looked at Xiao Xiao lovingly playing with the necklace.

"Let's go home and appreciate it slowly. No one will shoot at such a beautiful necklace." Xiao Xiao carefully pulled the outer white windbreaker, and then stuffed the necklace into the sweater. Not to the necklace.

"Who can see it in it—" Lin Tao said depressingly.

"(*^__^*) Hee hee..., I just want to appreciate it myself, money is not leaking out, understand—" Xiao Xiao said playfully.

"This girl is right, it's fine if you appreciate it, you don't have to take it outside—" The female manager didn't say a word, the necklace is indeed quite expensive, and it might be in danger of being robbed on the street.

"Don't move-hit-rob" a sound like a broken gong shook the Supreme Jewelry Store, followed by exclamations, shouts, and two "bang bang" gunshots, everything returned to silence.All that was left was gasps and heartbeats.

"Damn it, all those who don't want to die squat down and start smashing—you two are outside, let's go in." A masked man walked in with a micro punch in his hand.Xiao Xiao was so frightened that she closed her eyes and hugged Lin Tao tightly.

"***, squat down, you open the safe." The masked man kicked Lin Tao, Lin Tao didn't dare to hide, and obediently pulled Xiao Xiao to squat down.
