The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 319 - Dreams Come True

“I can offer you a special discount.”

“Only 5000 RMB for an entire year. That's not too pricey, is it?”

“You're quite the negotiator. How does 4000 RMB for the year sound?”

“Do you still find that expensive? What about 3000 RMB for the year?”

“I can't reduce the price any further, otherwise our club will lose its profit margin. The absolute lowest I can go is 2000 RMB for the year!”

“Still not convinced? What if I throw in an additional 100 private training sessions for free?”

“Isn't that a good deal? Don't push your luck.”

Su Ming listened and sighed to himself.

He hadn't uttered a single word throughout the entire exchange. How could he be haggling?

Seeing that Su Ming remained unaffected, the young salesman sighed as well.

“Where do you work? What's your profession? Is your company hiring?”

Su Ming was taken aback by the sudden shift in conversation.

Sales tactics had become quite distinctive. Salespeople would build rapport with potential customers through casual conversation before pitching their products.

Customers who were less confrontational might feel too awkward to decline the offer, often ending up purchasing out of sheer politeness.

Even if the salesman targeted ten customers and only one made a purchase, it was still a win for him.

The young man had been trailing Su Ming for 50 meters. Just one more turn and they would lose sight of the club's entrance.

Yet, he persisted, seemingly determined to follow Su Ming until he agreed to sign up for a membership.

“Don't tell me you find me annoying. I'm starting to annoy myself.”

Su Ming had remained silent the whole time.

But that did nothing to deter the young man's endless prattle.

Su Ming paused, pondering the situation.

Was this some novel sales strategy?

“In our job, the commissions are low and the benefits are meager. The bulk of what we earn from sales goes to the owner, leaving us with just a small cut,” he lamented with a gloomy expression.

Su Ming was at a loss for words. He truly wished the young man would stop following him.

“Did you hear about the guy who bought a plot of land downtown just to farm it? Do you know him?” the young man inquired.

Su Ming was momentarily taken aback.

He was well aware of the story, as he was the man in question.

“I'm quite jealous of him. Land in the city center is incredibly expensive, yet he bought it to farm. Such luxury.”

“Sometimes I wonder if my family is secretly wealthy and owns property in the downtown area, but my parents have kept it from me as a test,” I muse.

The young man tagged along with Su Ming into the supermarket. Su Ming gave him a quizzical look. His persistence was remarkable. Su Ming had a sneaking suspicion that if he headed to the restroom, the young man would follow him there too. And Su Ming was itching to tell him just how absurd his ideas were.

“I'm convinced my dream will become a reality!” the young man suddenly proclaimed, his fists clenched with fervor.

Su Ming jumped at the outburst, and so did everyone else in the supermarket. All eyes were on Su Ming and the young man. Su Ming sidestepped, putting some distance between them. He didn't know this guy at all!

“My parents have to be wealthy. There's got to be a huge estate out there waiting for me to inherit. Every hardship I face is surely a test! If I persevere, I'm destined to take over the family empire and manage our wealth!” the young man declared, his eyes brimming with hope.

Su Ming shook his head, unable to hide his disbelief. He wondered if the young man had been reading too many fantasy novels. Could he really believe everyone was a hidden millionaire? Ironically, standing right before him was a genuine hidden millionaire—Su Ming himself.

Pushing his cart to the snack aisle, Su Ming listened to the young man continue to mutter to himself. “God has given me a grand mission, hence my trials. I'm bound for greatness!”

“So, what do you think about signing up for a gym membership?” the young man abruptly switched gears.

Su Ming couldn't help but burst into laughter at the sheer audacity. The young man hadn't lost sight of his original goal, despite his momentary disdain for worldly concerns. Now he was back to facing the harsh reality.

He was inwardly frustrated. What could he do? It was tough to make sales nowadays. Gyms were everywhere, yet few people were interested in memberships. Without being persistent with potential clients, he wouldn't make any money. His sales tactics were high-stakes.

This month, he'd been roughed up seven times, but the compensation totaled thirty thousand RMB. He hadn't lost out—in fact, he'd made more than his regular paycheck!

​He was overjoyed!

Today, when he encountered Su Ming, he thought Su Ming seemed quite persuadable.

So, he latched onto Su Ming.

Right as Su Ming was rolling his eyes, the young man's phone rang.

Caught off guard, he pulled out his phone.

“Mom, I've told you, I can't take calls while I'm at work.”

“Son!”

A woman's voice came through from the other end: “Your father bought you a piece of land. When can you come to see it?”

“What?”

The young man was taken aback.

Su Ming was equally surprised.

His dream had come true!

Tears sprang to the young man's eyes.

He was so moved that his hands shook.

He wasn't just daydreaming after all!

“Mom, hold on, I need to make a call!”

He ended the call.

Then he flipped through his contacts and dialed a number.

“What's the matter?”

An authoritative voice answered.

“Jerk! I've been wanting to tell you, I've despised you for a long time. I'm quitting, effective immediately!”

With that, he hung up.

The thrill of wealth was exhilarating!

He imagined his boss, who squeezed every last drop of work from his employees, would be seething with anger.

The thought alone made him want to chuckle.

He then called his mother back.

“Mom, thank you for everything you've done for me over the years. I'm deeply moved. Rest assured, I won't let you down!”

Tears streamed down his face as he spoke.

“Why are you crying? Your father simply bought you a piece of land.”

A voice tinged with confusion came from the other end. “It's not a big deal. The land isn't worth much. Your dad intended it as a birthday gift for you.”

Hearing this, he was even more touched and burst into tears.
