Lao Bai had been listening to people's chatter before. When Dong Qiangqiang asked him his opinion, he was not in a hurry to answer. He turned to look at Lei Lanting, who had a sad look on his face, and asked, "Is it completely safe?"
Everyone can see that Lei Lanting's face at this time has actually answered this question for him. He shook his head regretfully and sighed: "Hey, I originally planned to..." But he couldn't say the second half of the sentence.
Dong Qiangqiang could understand Lei Lanting's thinking. He must have felt that full insurance was too expensive and was reluctant to buy it. But this kind of thing often happens. When a person buys comprehensive insurance and makes all kinds of preparations, he may spend the car rental period calmly and safely, but when he takes a chance, bad luck will come quietly. . Murphy's Law always has various fulfillments in life.
"I just bought collision insurance," Lei Lanting said, his head drooping like an eggplant beaten by frost, "It doesn't include glass insurance, and it doesn't exclude deductibles... Damn it..."
"If you don't have full insurance and don't exclude deductibles, you will definitely have to pay for it yourself." Lao Bai had obviously expected this result. He looked around at everyone and ordered in an unquestionable tone, "But now There is no time for regrets, it is imperative that we do what we have to do.”
Everyone present except Lao Bai was a novice, so the three of them remained silent and held their breath quietly to listen to Lao Bai's suggestions.
"Although it is disgusting that the car was smashed, our group members did not suffer any losses. The signs of Lei Lanting and the travel agency did not fall to the ground. This is a blessing in the misfortune." Lao Bai's words made Lei Lanting feel a little comfort. Indeed, As Lao Bai said, if a tourist loses something, no matter how much or how little, I am afraid Lei Lanting will have to drink not only the dissatisfaction of the tourists, but also the dissatisfaction of the travel agency. And he gave the travel agency a lot of money as a deposit. If the travel agency acted rogue, his deposit would be wasted.
"We are now divided into three groups: Lei Lanting first drives a car to a regular car repair shop I know. Dong Qiangqiang goes with the police to the police station to record a statement and check surveillance. After that, he immediately goes to Lei Lanting to repair the second car. You guys Remember to replace the original glass as much as possible and keep the glass remains of the car to facilitate confrontation later." Lao Bai casually took out two pieces of paper, quickly wrote the address on them and handed them to Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting respectively, "Let's take the police's We can also negotiate with the car rental company for the crime report record and the car repair order from the regular car dealer. Otherwise, if the car rental company does not approve the newly installed glass, we will have to pay more. Lei Lanting’s car rental deposit will be gone, and the loss will be too great. ”
"That's right, if we replace the original glass, we must not let them deduct the car rental deposit..." Lei Lanting nodded hurriedly in agreement, "But didn't you say that the troops were divided into three groups?"
"You all drive away," Lao Bai took a deep breath, "Lele and I will keep an eye on them. Remember to leave as soon as possible and come back without delay."
Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting both understood Lao Bai's subtext and nodded solemnly.
"Have you discussed it yet?" The fat policeman stood not far away and urged impatiently, "If it's done, hurry up. We have other tasks."
With the coordination of the police, surveillance around the parking lot was quickly deployed. However, most of the cameras were either blocked by buildings or had wrong angles. The only camera that captured the incident was not of high resolution. Dong Qiangqiang could only vaguely make out two small motorcycles that quickly stopped next to his car, and a few thin black figures jumped off the motorcycles. The shadows hung around the car for a while, and then their windows were smashed. In less than a minute, these black figures drove away on motorcycles. Not to mention human faces, even Dong Qiangqiang’s motorcycle license plate cannot be seen clearly.
The fat policeman had obviously expected this outcome. He shook his head and made a note of Dong Qiangqiang without being surprised. Then he comforted him lightly and asked him to be sent out of the police station.
Worried that Lao Bai and Tong Lele would make mistakes if they were not careful enough, Dong Qiangqiang did not dare to neglect and went straight to the car repair shop without stopping.
As soon as he arrived, all the glass rear parts of Lei Lanting's car were replaced. After communicating with each other, the two decided that Dong Qiangqiang would drive the good car directly back to the shopping street, while Lei Lanting would be responsible for repairing the second car before gathering with the troops.
Dong Qiangqiang returned to the commercial street next to the Milan Cathedral. Dong Qiangqiang, who learned a lot from the experience, learned the lesson this time and parked the car directly on the side of the busy road, less than 50 meters away from the nearest police box. Although the parking fee on the roadside is one-third more expensive than in a parking lot further away, Dong Qiangqiang believes that the probability of a car being smashed in public is relatively low. Although the parking fee is cheaper if you park far away, it will be cheaper to replace a batch of car windows. In fact, it’s not much cheaper in the end.
He bought a drink outside the mall and quickly walked towards Lao Bai and others.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he found Lao Bai, he saw a scene that surprised him. However, it was not a horrifying scene of another group member being entangled by a gypsy girl or a black man, nor was it the mysterious disappearance of a member of the group that he had been worried about before. In a luxury store, Tong Lele was surrounded by group members holding various luxury goods, and she seemed to be dizzy with work.
Dong Qiangqiang handed Lao Bai a drink, then pointed at Tong Lele behind the glass window in confusion and asked, "What's going on?"
"You can't believe it? In the hour since you left, Lele alone has already made ten orders worth almost 20,000 euros." Lao Bai took the drink, took a sip and sighed, "There is absolutely no one for me here. It’s over. Now I’m her assistant.”
"Is there such a thing?" Dong Qiangqiang was surprised and happy, "Has she also been a tour guide?"
"She understands Italian, can translate for them, and can communicate directly with the store clerk without any barriers, so she can get more discounts than me. Moreover, she can also give these people suggestions and tell them what clothes are more suitable for their temperament, because she There is no motive to get commission, so the suggestions she gives are more pertinent. Her approach of not deliberately letting people consume for marketing is recognized by these men and women, so she is very popular." Lao Bai looked at Tong Lele's back and admired He said, "This is talent, don't accept it. Well, that old Zheng over there has already spent thousands of euros." Lao Bai pursed his lips at a fat figure.
Thinking that Lao Zheng, who didn't even want to tip 1 euro, had already bought thousands of euros of luxury goods, Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but clicked his tongue. People are indeed most generous when spending money on themselves.
Dong Qiangqiang looked at the familiar scene in front of him, and suddenly thought of Du Lan, and then thought of Lao Chen. His lips opened and closed like a fish blowing bubbles, as if he was about to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
As if he had read Dong Qiangqiang's thoughts, Lao Bai suddenly said inexplicably: "She has sense, you don't have to worry."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lao Bai immediately realized that he had made a mistake. This was tantamount to scolding Du Lan. He immediately changed the subject skillfully and asked knowingly: "Actually, at first I thought you two would make it. You are both from Beijing. , we are about the same age, we have a good impression of each other, and we have shared experiences, so how come it didn’t work out?”
Of course Lao Bai knew the reason why the two failed, but using emotional issues to change the subject was usually the safest way.
Especially when the atmosphere is awkward.
Dong Qiangqiang was still thinking about how to answer. Tong Lele took a moment to see the two people talking and waved to Lao Bai: "Fill out the tax exemption form."
Lao Bai nodded with a smile, dropped Dong Qiangqiang with relief and walked toward the crowd. Tong Lele took the opportunity to run over.
"Why are you just watching the fun and not coming to help?" Tong Lele said angrily, wiping her sweat.
A layer of fine beads of sweat hung on her forehead and the tip of her nose, her cheeks were flushed, and the hair on her temples was tangled with sweat. It was obvious that the workload just now was not small.
Her words distracted Dong Qiangqiang, and he waited for a few seconds before remembering to hand over the drink he bought: "Old Bai said you made a lot of money today, please teach me some tricks."
"Ahem, I'm just a blind cat who met a dead mouse and got blindsided." Although he was modest, Dong Qiangqiang could see that Tong Lele was also very happy.
"I didn't know you had studied Italian specifically," Dong Qiangqiang continued to boast, "Okay, the real person will not show his face."
"I took opera classes for two semesters, and the professor required us to master Italian." Tong Lele sighed, "Those two semesters were like a nightmare. I even dreamed at night and was speaking Italian. I really had to bite the bullet. I chewed it off bit by bit, but I didn’t expect it to be used today.”
"If you can make a lot of money by learning a foreign language, then I guess everyone will study hard. It's because they don't know when they can turn their knowledge into cash, so most people are too lazy to learn." Dong Qiangqiang couldn't help but sigh, "People are short-sighted. Yes, actually I am too.”
"So as the old saying goes, it's not a bad thing to learn more when you're young." Tong Lele smiled and teased, "You just said you wanted me to teach you, isn't your girlfriend a tour guide? You still need to follow me? study?"
Dong Qiangqiang grinned, and before he could reply, he saw Lao Bai walking quickly and whispered to Dong Qiangqiang and Tong Lele: "The consumption power of these people has not been fully released, we must move to another place."
"Change the place?" Dong Qiangqiang was stunned, "But we only have one car now, and Lei Lanting hasn't come back yet."
"Call him and ask him how long he has left." Lao Bai ordered, "Tell him the sooner the better."
"Then I'll call him right now," Dong Qiangqiang asked while dialing Lei Lanting's phone, "Then where should we go next?"
"The outlets in the urban area are crowded and have mediocre products. These people will definitely look down on them. Let's go to several shopping villages on the outskirts of Milan. There are all big international brands." Lao Bai said firmly, "We must let people from China When the guests spend their money happily and feel that their trip is worthwhile, these people will come back to you next time.”
