Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

Chapter 45 The Greedy Store Manager

The next day.

Everyone took a taxi to the Timken Company store in Niuyo.

"Ma'am, do you sell vacuum bearings here?" Qian Shuyun took the initiative to ask in English this time. She was afraid that if she didn't say a few words, she would just be a bystander.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I haven't heard of 'vacuum bearings'. But I can ask our store manager for you."

The clerk said and walked towards the store manager's office.

"Manager, there is a lady in the store who wants to buy 'vacuum bearings'. But I'm not sure if our company has this thing."

"Vacuum bearings?" The store manager whispered, then looked at the clerk and said, "Please ask them to come in."

The clerk left the manager's office and walked towards the people who were still waiting in the store.

"Ma'am, our store manager wants you to come in and talk."

After the clerk finished speaking, he raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you."

Zhang Weiguo took out a $1 tip and handed it to the clerk, then pointed his hand downward as if he was looking back and talking to you, and followed the clerk to the office.

"They are the store manager. I'll be out if nothing else."

After the clerk left, the store manager looked at the yellow skin of the people and asked, "Are you Japanese?"

"Yes, Mr. Manager."

Qian Shuyun was about to refute, but was interrupted by Zhang Weiguo. After all, their purpose was to buy "vacuum bearings", not to worry about these things, completing the task was the kingly way.

"Well, young man, you speak very good English. If I hadn't seen your skin color, I would have thought you were a real girl dating someone."

"Thank you for the compliment. Mr. Manager, can we talk business now?"

"We at Timken do have the 'vacuum bearings' you want. How many do you want?"

"100."

After Zhang Weiguo finished speaking, the store manager Daniel's eyes lit up, then he quickly suppressed his joyful expression and said.

"Sir, I'm sure you all know that there are only a few companies in America that are capable of making high-end industrial parts like "vacuum bearings". And our Timken Company happens to have this capability. But..."

Zhang Weiguo took out a $100 bill and secretly handed it to Daniel from the table.

"Mr. Manager, if you have any questions, we can discuss it."

Daniel took the money calmly, coughed and said, "This 'vacuum bearing' is a precision part, so the price may be more expensive, one US dollar."

When Zhang Weiguo heard the price, he was shocked. Although "vacuum bearings" are high-end industrial parts in this era, according to America's current industrial capabilities, the price is probably only a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.

"Mr. Manager, are you sure this price is your company's price?"

"Yes, sir. And I'm the only place you can buy it in the whole of Napa."

Zhang Weiguo could also see that the store manager simply regarded them as yellow people and treated them as fat sheep to be slaughtered.

So I said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Manager. I think we may need to look in another store."

Daniel did not stop him, but said fearlessly: "Welcome to come again next time."

At this time, Daniel thought, it is impossible for you to buy "vacuum bearings" except from me in the whole of New York.

"let's go!!"

After Zhang Weiguo finished speaking, he turned around and left the store. Although everyone was a little confused, they still chose to follow Zhang Weiguo.

At the entrance of the store, Zhang Weiguo said to everyone, "Let's go back to the hotel first. This is not the place to talk."

Everyone had to suppress what they wanted to say.

When everyone returned to the hotel, Qian Shuyun spoke first, with a hint of anger between his brows: "Weiguo, why did you say we are Fuso people just now?"

Looking at Qian Shuyun's frown, Zhang Weiguo explained helplessly: "Believe it or not, if we say we are from Long Country, the store manager will ignore us and may even call the police."

"This……"

Qian Shuyun was obviously shocked by this statement.

"In fact, racial discrimination is very serious in America, and the relationship between our country and here is not harmonious at present. Therefore, for the sake of safety, we still act as Fuso people."

"But……"

"Comrade Shuyun, I know what the Fuso people did to our country, but we are on a mission now."

Wang Jianguo looked at the two people who were about to quarrel and quickly said, "Comrade Shuyun, Comrade Weiguo is absolutely right. Our top priority at the moment is to complete this task, and personal feelings must be put aside for the time being."

Wang Jianguo's words calmed Qian Shuyun down a little. She took a deep breath and turned to Zhang Weiguo, "Weiguo, I... was a little impulsive just now. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I understand how you feel."

In fact, when on the boat, Wang Jianguo had already revealed Qian Shuyun's family background to Zhang Weiguo.

Her grandfather was a meritorious general of the Dragon Kingdom, and her father died heroically in the war against Fuso.

Growing up in this environment, Qian Shuyun's hatred for Fusang and Zhang Weiguo is understandable. After all, before his rebirth, he had praised the brother who burned the Yasukuni Shrine toilet.

Lu Cheng then asked, "Comrade Weiguo, why did you drag us out just now?"

"Do you know how much that shitty store manager asked for? US dollars."

"This...how can it be so expensive?"

When Lu Cheng heard the price, he opened his mouth in shock. US dollars, even if he worked for 10 lifetimes, he might not be able to save this much money.

"What should we do? Why don't we go and bargain with that foreigner?"

In fact, before coming here, Lu Cheng thought that he could negotiate this purchase smoothly with his many years of experience, but he found out along the way that America is very different from China. It is not something that can be done by just drinking with people and giving them gifts. These foreigners care more about US dollars.

"Okay, don't be discouraged. This so-called store manager is simply treating us as fat sheep to be slaughtered." Zhang Weiguo first comforted Lu Cheng, and then said.

"But the trouble is that it seems that we can only buy it from him now."

Just now, Sophia called me and told me that there are only seven companies in America that can make "vacuum bearings", and in New York, only Timken has the ability to make them.

"Don't be discouraged. I will ask my friends here to see if I can bypass the store manager and find someone else from Timken to buy it."

Lu Cheng replied helplessly: "Alas, it seems that this is the only way."

The next day, not long after everyone left the hotel, Wang Jianguo noticed something was wrong and hurriedly told everyone.

"Everyone be careful, we may be followed."
