52 Don't Enter That Mall

"Boss, can I get an advance on my salary?" Shen Xi asked Li Si.

Shen Xi thought her performance that month was not bad. She wanted to get an advance so she could install the air conditioner at home. As it stood, she felt uncomfortable watching her parents place blocks of ice in front of her fan every night so she would not feel hot.

At first, Shen Xi thought of buying an electric fan, but now that she had more money, she decided on the air conditioner instead.

Li Si answered without hesitation, "Sure, sure."

With her debit card in hand, Shen Xi went to one of Rongcheng's largest shopping malls and spent 10,000 yuan on three 1.5-horsepower air-conditioners from L & X Household Appliances.

The Shen family home was not big, so 1.5 horsepower should be enough. One for each of the two bedrooms and one for the living room.
