Victory in Life
Chapter 37
That explains why even though they were in the province, Bentley's showroom was almost empty.
The arrival of Jasper and Wendy attracts the attention of several sellers, but they decide to leave them alone when they realize that the two are just young kids.
After all, a Chevrolet alone was not something an ordinary person could afford, let alone a Bentley that cost over millions of dollars.
It was not that Jasper had thought about it, when he saw the Bentley Mulsanne he had long craved as he walked through the door.
One of the hallmarks of brands like Bentley and Rolls-Royce is their classic design.
That's why Bentley Now doesn't look too different from Bentley 20 years later.
From timeless classic cylinder headlights to powerful air intake grilles, to the double-winged Bentley logo representing honor and wealth, it was an unforgettable iconic brand design for anyone.
"Are you two interested in buying this Mulsanne, sir? I can tell you more about this car." A timid voice sounded from the side.
Jasper turned his head and realized that it was a girl in a salesman's uniform. He looked young and held a mop in his hand as it cleared the place.
Glancing at the older sellers chatting in a circle not too far away, Jasper soon understood that this girl was newly hired and discriminated against.
"Yes, yeah,. I've come to see him" replied Jasper.
While the two were talking, a saleswoman suddenly spoke in a mocking tone that wasn't too far away." You can't expect to find a good business opportunity with such a blind eye, Xena. That guy looks the same age as you, how could he possibly buy a Bentley?"
Xena flushed and gathered her strength to speak. "He is still a customer. Regardless of whether he buys from us or not, I still have to do my part."
"Fucking idiot." Another saleswoman taunted and disrespectfully chided, "The village girl will always be the village girl. He can never be compared to us city people. He has no brain."
The woman's words invited laughter from several other salespeople.
Xena gripped the mop even tighter as a mocking laughter aimed at her. Feeling inferior, he stared at the floor and did not dare to resist.
"I think you're doing well" Jasper spoke calmly, "You don't have to pay too much attention to what other people think of you."
Xena looked at Jasper and forced a smile
"May I try how it feels?" Jasper asked politely.
Xena nodded excitedly, "Yes you can."
Just as Jasper was about to open the door and sit inside, the salesman who had been watching over them suddenly shouted.
"Hey, wait!"
Jasper turned to look at the salesman approaching. He would speak, but he was a step faster.
"What do you think you touched? Do you know how expensive this car is? Don't touch it if you won't buy it. You won't be able to pay for repairs if you break them.
You too, Xena. Stop, should you let that poor man touch this car? Who will be responsible if something happens? Do you still want your job?"
"But the purpose of the showroom is ..." Xena flushed as she tried to argue.
However, he was interrupted by an upset saleswoman. "What do you know? You're just a country girl. If I say that you can't let him touch her, then that means you can't let him touch her."
Then, the salesman pushed Jasper's hand with a look of disdain and anger before picking up a towel to wipe the handle of the car door that Jasper had just touched. It was almost as if Jasper's touch had made him dirty.
"Isn't it a showroom for people to try and see what this car feels like?" Jasper asked coldly.
The salesman grunted. "This car is indeed to try and feel how it feels, just not for poor people like you."
"I have to drive people like you out a few times every month. People like you can't seem to get on with your life when you see an expensive car. You think after touching it then you're a great person now? I've seen more than enough. You disgust me."

Next to them, Wendy frowned at the saleswoman's attitude and choice of words.
"Isn't your service too unfriendly? How can you work as a saleswoman with such an attitude?"
"Oh?" The salesman looked at Wendy and mocked her. "Don't you know where you are? This is Bentley's showroom! Every car here costs millions of dollars!
"I must admit you have good taste, head straight for Mulsanne as soon as you enter. You can't even afford this car no matter how you look at it, so why should we be polite to you?"
The salesman laughed as if he had heard a funny joke. "I'll swallow this towel if you can afford it, how?"
Then, the salesman waved his hand to chase them away in annoyance. "Enough is. You've seen it, so stop standing here ruining the view. Seriously, how did you come here with how poor you are?"
After he finished speaking, Jasper then handed his bank card to Xena.
"Write the contract and swipe the card. I'll pay in full". Jasper pointed at Bentley Mulsanne. "I'll take this Mulsanne."
Then, Jasper looked at the gaping salesman and spoke coldly, "Towel down the towel."
His tone was hardly heavy and his voice was not too loud, but it left a jarring shock in the saleswoman's ears.
With a frozen expression, the salesman stared at the bank card in Xena's hand. He jerked back to reality and scoffed coldly, having no effect. "You think you can joke around with that simple bank card, this car costs 6.8 million dollars! We do not give discounts! How can you have so much money on your card?"
"You don't know when to stop." Jasper didn't want to waste his time.
"Write the contract, please." Jasper looked towards Xena.
"Huh!?" Xena finally reacted and stared blankly at Jasper. "Wait, did you really buy it?"
"I really bought it."
Jasper gave her a heartening smile.
Xena immediately ran away with a bank card in her hand.
Soon after, Xena walked in with the printed contract and the proper documents for the procedure.
Under everyone's gaze, Jasper entered the password and paid 6.8 million with his cards.
Everyone breathed a breath of wonder.
While there were people rich enough to buy Bentley in 2000, they were powerful greats who rarely showed up.
There was no way these people would want to buy directly, as they usually had others do it for them.
Therefore, since it opened, this was the first car that the showroom sold.
Commissions can be earned from the sale of cars, and with this transaction, Xena earns at least 20 thousand dollars.
20 Thousand in 2000 equals the average annual income of citizens.
The members of the sales department turned to look at Xena enviously.
In the meantime, he was overjoyed and thanked God for His blessing.
The only pale-faced person in the room was the saleswoman who mocked them earlier.
"Then? What are you waiting for? Swallow the towel."
Jasper spoke coldly as he signed the contract.
The clerk's skin was deathly pale, and while he was feeling bitter, he understood that he could not afford to offend someone who had the strength to buy Bentley.
At that moment, he wanted to die.
"I'm, I'm sorry, Mr ..." The saleswoman wailed.
"Have you forgotten what you promised?" Jasper asked coldly.
