As she stopped to watch, Clarie gave a faint explanation.
“Customers buy flowers, the mall cashier system will automatically track the membership information, additional points for future exchange for membership gifts, in improving the mall’s public service image, to meet the desire of a small number of customers keen on public service but can not find the time, but also to increase an additional input, the sister who sells flowers also do not have to adopt a one-by-one approach to sales of products, we have reached a preliminary agreement with the mall manager We have reached a preliminary agreement with the manager of the mall, from now on this is that sister’s ‘counter’, her income should have an essential change, but hopefully it will help her mother’s illness.”
Folly nodded in satisfaction, “Well done, but I’m more interested to know how you convinced the mall manager to agree?”
I agree with her, confused, mutual benefit is certainly the fundamental business cooperation, but for the supermarket itself, the public welfare income is just a drop in the bucket, can do things can not be done, and the object of cooperation is a half-grown girl, there are too many uncertainties, it is clear that the risks are greater than the benefits, as the manager, there is no need to cause trouble for the mall.
“This well …” Clarie calm side eyes look over, somehow took the phone out, at the moment the screen is facing us, “This is my Twitter account in the country, I promised to write an article every month for the next six months to report on the good deeds of the mall, they agreed, there are some additional conditions, not important, so I will not say.”
Got a closer look and instantly understood what was going on.
#Clarie like autumn: fans 1063887#
One million followers Twitter bloggers, the cost of an ad in about 300, 000, the calculation of the mall saved nearly two million, and they only need to open up a small inconspicuous corner in the original spacious gate, a sure-fire deal, why not do it?
But Clarie, the young genius who was admitted to a foreign university early, seems to be in the right place.
Still, I had a small surprise, “Did you make your own account?”
“Hmm.” Clarie eyes have a smile, “network era, the power of the Internet to spread is no longer human can be compared, originally do this is to accumulate fans, hoping to find you back one day sooner mom, but now is no longer needed, but also can play a role to do some good, seems good.”
“Good good.” Folly like a leader like happy straight applause, and visionary mention a, “is the name up too earthy, such as autumn as spring, easy to let people think is a little old lady, well … Change it to Four Season, and then to my investment company to take a set of photos, plus your genius teenager aura, fans at least doubled again, then hire someone to manage, sitting on the money automatically into the account.”
Clarie pursed her lips and smiled, looking down at the phone in her hand, “Like autumn, it’s just fine, I want to always remember the taste of autumn.”
I don’t know why, but this instant I actually felt that her smile was a bit sad, as if it was mixed with a lot of bitterness.
Six years apart, absent from the most important period of growth, it seems I can no longer fully read Clarie’s mind.
There is a saying that when you know something, you have a heart, and Clarie is good and considerate from the moment we met, but now it seems to have the characteristic of doing something big in a sultry voice, and a bad feeling inexplicably rises in your heart.
It just so happened that Toby came in with the maid to pick up his things and interrupted the conversation, which ended there and no one continued.
I thought it was over, but I didn’t think Folly would take it to heart, and within two hours of returning, she showed up at the door again, took a stack of papers out of her bag and put them on the table, and said she wanted to “adopt” Clarie.
“Clarie is a piece of business material, let her go back to China, from now on follow me to learn business, by the way, enroll in an MBA course, in the future I want to do any project I fully support, never too much interference, only one requirement, I love talent cherish talent do not want to let you be stolen by outsiders, we two ah, have to sign a contract, so I Only then I feel at ease.”
Clarie obviously did not think of this layer, sniffed at Dennis and I, did not answer for a moment.
A hangman’s voice from far and near, “the George family so many industries waiting to inherit, a few little guys can not cope with it is not certain, you are good, directly to the heir poached for you to make money, the calculation can be played loud enough.”
Brady came downstairs in his silk pajamas, his hair loose, and he looked like he had just woken up.
I’m surprised he hasn’t left yet.
“Don’t worry about our family’s business.” Folly does not care what his status is, was spoiled, every sentence with a thorn in the side, “but Mr. Jenks, as soon as you return to the country to dominate the cover of the lace magazine, domestic and foreign flags flying, two kidneys is enough?”
“Since when do you care so much about me?” Brady tied the belt around his waist while going downstairs, “Is it enough, won’t you know if you come and try it yourself?”
After Zack’s matter, Folly to Brady this kind of flowers, leaves do not touch the body of the person itself is not much good feeling, this moment is stimulated to be angry, I hastened to open the interruption, “the more outrageous, consider giving me a face, this slightly mature topic, can not avoid Snowy them in the future? ”
Brady sat on the sofa, a leg provocatively raised on the armrest, a face of innocence, “we are fishing for the most taboo with people, and I love women, is that she speaks too hard, I just politely back two sentences, I am the victim ~”
Folly sneered, pulling the corners of her mouth to sneer, “Then I’m afraid there are no evil people in this world.”
Although it is not peaceful, the two did not continue to dwell on each other, looked at each other simply when the other does not exist.
After a while, Brady spoke again, “Clarie, if you really want to go back to China, Uncle Brady here are a lot of good doors, do you want to consider it ~”
Folly was just relieved, and immediately pulled down her face again, “I said why are you so kind, it turns out that the intention is not wine, want to steal someone from me ah Brady, there is always a first come first served, you do not think that I Folly is outside those who can just bully women, right?”
“I didn’t say that.” Brady two hands, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water look, “Clara and their shopping back to talk about selling flowers, I already have such plans, but overslept, so that you grabbed the first opportunity, to really count, who first who is not sure.”
“You–” Folly angry speech, clever tongue is also ultimately unable to take his thick skin, and finally only indignantly clenched teeth spit, “scoundrel!”
Brady mouth a glance, and do not take it seriously.
“What’s the talk?” Dennis came back at that moment and asked while taking off his jacket and handing it to the maid.
“You have to keep an eye on your daughter, some unsuspecting men are already hitting on them now.” Folly said grimly.
Brady tried to retort, sat up straight and was about to open his mouth when Dennis came over and asked, as if he had heard some funny joke, “Oh? Who’s got the nerve?”
Saying that, he sat down next to me, put his big hand naturally on my shoulder, looked at Clarie and said, “Clarie, getting bullied?”
“There’s no dad.” Clarie smiled and explained good-naturedly, “It was Uncle Brady and Auntie Folly who wanted to take me up on the business.”
Dennis nodded knowingly and asked again, “So what do you mean, there’s this interest?”
Clarie pursed her lips and still didn’t seem to make up her mind.
Dennis is extraordinarily patient, “No need to worry about the side, just say your heart, you are still young, just do not want to, it is nothing, always do study, Dad also support.”
“Thank you, Daddy.” Clarie seemed to get courage from these words and smiled blushingly, “Actually, I planned to do business long ago, but I was afraid you guys wouldn’t agree to it, Daddy and Mommy.”
As expected, children are able to hide things in their hearts, I was oblivious to this, and laughed helplessly, “Tell me about it.”
Dennis’s hand on my shoulder slightly raised and lowered, as if to comfort, turned his head to look at him, and no response, probably because I would be wrong.
“I want to, open a bar!”
“The biggest bar in town!”
