When Fei Jianzhong got into the Hongqi car prepared by Chen Zekai and set off for Jinling city, he was in a very depressed mood and sat in the left seat in the back row without saying a word.
Sitting on his right side is Lai Qinghua, who is over 100 years old.
Lai Qinghua saw that Fei Jianzhong was in a bad mood, so he smiled and asked him: "Jianzhong, I think you don't seem happy."
"I can't be happy..." Fei Jianzhong said angrily: "To tell you the truth, Brother Lai, I've been irritable since I got off the plane!"
Lai Qinghua smiled slightly and reminded: "Jianzhong, as the saying goes, take care of yourself as you come. You'd better try to be calm."
Fei Jianzhong nodded reluctantly, and then couldn't help but touch and look around in the car, his face full of disgust.
Lai Qinghua could see that he was definitely not used to this kind of C-class car that cost hundreds of thousands. After all, the price of the entire car might not be comparable to a seat in Fei Jianzhong's usual travel car.
So, he smiled and said to Fei Jianzhong: "Jianzhong, don't underestimate this car. This is a red flag."
Fei Jianzhong said with a smile: "I know this is a red flag, but this is my first time."
Lai Qinghua said seriously: "Hongqi is the eldest son of the Republic, the founder of China's automobile industry, and an unshakable leader's car for decades. It is of great significance to the Chinese people. The organizer arranged for this car to pick us up, so it should be
It has a purpose.”
Fei Jianzhong said: "So, the organizer of this auction should be quite patriotic."
"Yes." Lai Qinghua nodded and said, "We must respect every patriotic person, because he will not stand in the wrong position in the face of great rights and wrongs."
Fei Jianzhong said nothing, his brows furrowed slightly, thoughtfully.
When the motorcade arrived at Buckingham Palace, the entire Buckingham Palace Hotel was under martial law.
Except for Buckingham Palace's own motorcade, which can enter and exit, no other people are allowed to enter.
However, the hotel lobby was bustling with people at this time.
The bidders who were sent over one after another were checking in one after another.
However, what made them collapse was that the price of accommodation here was extremely expensive. For a total of three nights, even the most ordinary standard room cost over one million.
Everyone knows that the organizer deliberately took the opportunity to kill them. For these people, money is not important, but being ripped off like this is really unacceptable psychologically.
When Fei Jianzhong saw on the fake target that a three-day stay in the presidential suite actually cost 6 million, he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
However, he still restrained the urge to explode and said to the check-in front desk staff: "I want this presidential suite."
The other party immediately replied: "Sorry, the presidential suite has been reserved for No. 016. Please look at other room types."
Fei Jianzhong didn't know who No. 016 was, but since the room was gone, he had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and get a luxury suite for two million.
In contrast, Lai Qinghua's treatment was much better. As a VIP, he was directly arranged into the executive deluxe suite in the executive building. This is also the second-largest room type in Buckingham Palace after the presidential suite, and it is free of charge.
After Fei Jianzhong checked in, the first thing he did after arriving in the room was to immediately make a phone call to Fei Kexin.
As soon as the phone call came through, Fei Kexin asked on the other end of the phone: "Grandpa, have you finished checking in?"
Fei Jianzhong hummed and said: "It's done. You guessed it right. They have arranged all the bidders to Buckingham Palace. I think this is definitely the venue for the auction."
Fei Kexin said: "Grandpa, I am in a special situation now. I will not meet with you for the past two days, but I will continue to find ways to mediate with everyone in the Rejuvenation Pill outside."
Fei Jianzhong hurriedly asked: "How is the progress now?"
Fei Kexin said truthfully: "I can't say that I am absolutely sure, but at least there has been a certain breakthrough. The other party wants to treat me to dinner after the auction. If you fail to get the Rejuvenation Pill at the auction, I will
I will take you to see him."
"Okay." Fei Jianzhong breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Kexin, you really worked hard this time! You have been working on this matter for so long."
Fei Kexin said hurriedly: "Grandpa, this is what I should do."
Fei Jianzhong sighed and said: "I hope this auction can successfully buy the Rejuvenation Pill, so that when the auction is over, you can go back to New York with me."
Fei Kexin smiled and said: "Grandpa, I believe you will be able to win."
…
Just when a large number of top wealthy people were moving into Buckingham Palace, Ye Chen was dragged by Xiao Churan to the most prosperous shopping mall in Jinling.
Since she received an invitation to the Rhode Island School of Design master class, she always felt that she owed Kelly West a huge favor.
There wasn't much going on in the company today, so Xiao Churan took Ye Chen to the street to pick out a gift for Kelly West.
Ye Chen asked Xiao Churan: "Wife, have you thought of anything to give her?"
Xiao Churan nodded repeatedly and said: "I have already thought about it and plan to give her a Hermès handbag. I have read her interviews before. It is said that she likes Hermès very much and has a hobby of collecting Hermès bags. In this case
, then I might as well do what she likes and give her one to show my sincerity."
Ye Chen smiled and said: "In that case, when you get to the store, you can choose a more expensive bag. As for the money issue, you don't have to worry at all. My husband has a lot here."
Xiao Churan said hurriedly: "No need, husband. I have saved a lot of savings recently. I'd better let me do this myself. Otherwise, I will feel bad."
Ye Chen didn't insist any more and said with a smile: "Then you have to do what you can and don't buy too expensive gifts."
Xiao Churan smiled sweetly and said: "I have already taken a look at the official website. There is a bag called the Birkin series, which is the best-selling one now. The price is not too expensive. If you don't choose one that is very rare,
The materials and workmanship are probably only a little over 100,000 yuan."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "A bag at this price is already pretty good."
Afterwards, the two came to the entrance of the Hermès store. At this time, there was already a long queue of dozens of people outside the store.
According to the staff outside the store, this is because there are too many customers in the store, and their store provides one-to-one sales service. Now all sales are with customers, so the store has begun to limit the flow.
The two of them waited outside the door for half an hour in order to line up to enter the store.
Half an hour later, the security guard outside the door said to Ye Chen and Xiao Churan who were at the front of the queue: "Please come in, our shopping guide will be here to serve you immediately."
Just as he was talking, a young man with a warm smile walked quickly towards the two of them,
As soon as we met, the man introduced himself: "Good afternoon, both of you. My name is Vivian. I am your shopping guide. What do you want to see?"
Xiao Churan said without thinking: "Hello, I want to buy a 30cm Birkin bag. Is it in stock?"
The shopping guide smiled and said: "Haha, madam, you are really discerning. Our Birkin series has always been a super best-seller. There are many users who have registered for reservations, but the quantity that arrives in each issue is very small, so if you want
If you get the bag as soon as possible, you may want to buy more things in our store to upgrade your membership level, and then your chances of winning the lottery will be greater!"
When Xiao Churan heard this, he asked in surprise: "Don't you buy the bag directly at the counter price?"
The shopping guide suddenly stopped smiling and said in a sarcastic tone: "This must be your first time shopping at Hermès, right? In our store, no bag is sold at the counter price, more or less.
You need to buy some other accessories, otherwise, it will be impossible to sell them to you."
Xiao Churan finally came to his senses and asked: "Need to buy some other accessories? Is this what they call distribution on the Internet?"
The shopping guide said matter-of-factly: "Yes, if you want to buy a Hermès bag now, this is the rule. It is the same no matter which country you are in."
Xiao Churan asked tentatively: "Then I want to buy Birkin 30, how much money do I need to buy?"
The shopping guide said contemptuously: "The 30cm Birkin bag has always been super popular. Even if you distribute the goods, you are not guaranteed to get the bag. Of course, the more goods you distribute, the higher the priority. If you get the bag,
The probability will be higher, and whether you can get the package depends on whether your level and priority can rush to the front."
Ye Chen doesn't like the hidden tricks of shopping guides. Thinking back to the last time he bought Hermès for his wife and father-in-law, the shopping guide bluntly said a specific amount of 500,000, although Ye Chen didn't like this kind of matching.
He was very unhappy with the way he handled the goods, but in comparison, he still preferred a more direct approach.
So, he opened his mouth and said to the shopping guide: "Stop beating around the bush, just tell me directly, how much money do I need to buy a Birkin 30?"
