My Passive Skills Are Invincible! Chapter 96

The driver looked at Mike in the rearview mirror with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
However, he remained silent.
Anyway, he did not think the young man was going to buy a house.
After all, he looked so... poor.
Sure enough, Mike had yet to purchase any good clothes.
It was mainly due to his busy schedule.
If he had the time, he might as well improve his strength in the game.
The taxi quickly started and drove to its destination.
About 20 minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of a sales office.
The driver turned his head and smiled and said,
"Young man, we're here.
"This is the best sales office of the No.1 High School in New York City."
When the driver said this, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes.
In his opinion, this kid in the back seat would probably blush and request him to change the destination.
After all, this place was too high-end.
Not to mention such a poor kid, even an ordinary family's husband and wife probably could not afford to buy a house here.
However, Mike showed no signs of cowardice. Instead, he calmly swiped his card to pay the fare, then directly got out of the car and walked to the sales office.
When the driver saw this scene, he was slightly stunned. Then, he helplessly shook his head.
It looked like this kid was going to embarrass himself after entering.
..
When Mike arrived at the sales office, a beautiful woman wearing a uniform immediately walked over with a signature smile and asked,
"Hello, student. Are you looking for someone?"
Actually, this question itself was not right.
When someone came to the sales office, their first reaction should be to ask if they were here to buy a house, and not to assume that they were here to look for someone.
However, she found nothing wrong with asking this question.

After all, Mike's clothes were really too ordinary.
They even revealed a hint of poverty.
Presumably, it was a colleague of hers.
However, when Mike heard this question, he gave a very surprising answer.
"I'm here to buy a house. Are there any nice houses that are close to the No.1 High School in New York City?"
When she heard this question, the beautiful woman was stunned for a few seconds before she finally reacted.
"You mean, you're here to buy a house?"
"Yes," Mike answered calmly.
He did not find it strange.
Even if a person dressed very shabbily, it should not conflict with wanting to buy a house. Maybe this person won the lottery?
However, clearly, the beautiful woman did not think that the lottery was that easy to win.
She covered her mouth and could not help but laugh.
The other staff members were also attracted by her laughter and could not help but look over.
Mike frowned slightly and asked,
"Are you done laughing? If you don't want to take this deal, I will find someone else to buy it from."
When the beauty heard this, she laughed even more happily. She shrugged and said,
"If you want to find someone else, that would really be a great help to me. Please go ahead, I'm very busy."
After saying that, she looked at Mike with a teasing smile.
She seemed to be waiting for Mike to show a look of embarrassment and anger.
However, Mike would not do that.
Although he looked like an 18-year-old boy now, he had already gone through his whole life.
His temperament was completely incomparable to that of an 18-year-old boy.
Did Mike know why this woman had this attitude? To put it bluntly, she judged people by their appearance.
Though he was neither angry nor dissatisfied.
It was all a waste of Mike's time.
The woman felt that her time was precious, and so did Mike.

He looked around, glanced at the staff around him, and finally looked at an introverted girl.
Mike immediately walked over and asked,
"Are you free? I want to buy a house that suits me."
When the girl saw Mike coming over, she seemed a little nervous, but she immediately nodded and said,
"Yes, yes, I'm free... Then, let me introduce you to some property."
Mike nodded and followed the girl to the sofa at the side and sat down.
The other staff members gathered together and started to discuss about Mike and the girl.
"Ha, this poor guy actually found Linda."
"Linda is actually willing to waste time presenting to this poor guy, how ridiculous."
"No wonder her performance is the lowest every month, she doesn't even have the most basic observation ability."
"In our industry, the most basic ability is to see how much money the customer has. I think Linda should change her profession as soon as possible."
At this point, they laughed in unison.
Linda, who was on the sofa, naturally heard these words.
She blushed and pursed her lips, but she still did not say anything.
It seemed as if she was used to it.
Mike saw this scene and asked,
"Aren't you angry about what they said?"
Linda did not expect Mike to ask this. She glanced at Mike and finally shook her head.
Mike asked again,
"Why aren't they willing to serve me, but you are?"
This time, Linda answered quickly.
"Because you are a customer."
This answer was very simple and plain, but many people could not do it.
Mike looked at her with admiration.
He smiled slightly,
"Don't worry, I won't let your efforts go to waste today."
Linda did not say anything about this. She just nodded slightly and said thank you.
Then, she continued to introduce the house to Mike.
Mike also listened carefully to the introduction of the house.
After all, he was here to buy a house. He had to look for a house of his liking.
Mike would not be careless about where he would live in the future.
Soon, Mike found a house that he liked under Linda's introduction.
"This one is pretty good. Is there a finished product now?"
Mike pointed at a house in the introduction book and asked.
The girl was a little surprised, but she still nodded and said,
"There is a finished product. Do you need me to bring you there for a viewing?"
Mike smiled and said, "Thank you. Then please take me for a viewing."
Mike immediately got up and walked straight out of the door.
Linda also packed her things and quickly followed.
Their actions made the beautiful woman burst into laughter again.
In their eyes, Linda's efforts today would be in vain again.
After walking out of the door, Mike directly stopped a taxi.
However, Linda came up to remind him,
"Sir, this place is very close to that house. We only need about 15 minutes to walk there."
Mike waved his hand and said,
"My time is very precious. Let's go by car."
After saying that, Mike immediately boarded the car.
Linda followed him without saying anything.
She had already planned to pay for the car fee herself.
Although the company would sometimes reimburse the car fee for their sales staff, this kind of situation would not be reimbursed.
Because from the company's point of view, the probability of this customer paying for the house was very low.
However, she was already used to it.
Mike glanced at Linda from the rearview mirror and smiled.
"Don't worry, as I said.
"You will definitely earn a very good income today."
