Chapter 1344

Only after this time did I really feel tired, and she was immersed in the afterglow of the lovemaking just now. So, we fell asleep together.

Later, I was woken up by Lin Yu in my sleep, "Feng Xiao, get up quickly, hurry up! It's already nine o'clock."

I suddenly woke up because I suddenly thought of what happened at night: Lin Yu and I had agreed to go to Governor Huang to pay New Year's greetings that night.

So we started to wash up randomly. I was very simple. I washed my face and combed my hair twice with a comb. But Lin Yu was different. She washed her face first and then simply drew her eyebrows.

Later, it took a lot of time to change clothes because she tried on several outfits before finally choosing a cashmere coat with a fur collar.

"How was it?" she asked me with a smile.

I nodded, "Yes. You look beautiful in this dress, and you look very dignified."

She gave me a charming look and said, "Dignified? Okay, then be dignified."

Then we went out together, and she reminded me: "Feng Xiao, don't forget to take your things."

It was already ten o'clock in the evening when we arrived at Governor Huang's home. There was no nanny in his home, so his villa seemed empty. In the atmosphere before the Spring Festival, his home gave people a feeling of desolation and loneliness.

Feel.

Governor Huang looked very happy when he saw us, "Why did you come so late?"

Lin Yu hurriedly explained: "Teacher Huang, mainly Feng Xiao, his parents came to the provincial capital today, and he went to pick them up, so it was a little late."

I hurriedly continued: "I'm sorry, Governor Huang, it's all my fault. It's too late and it affects your rest."

He suddenly burst into laughter, "Xiao Feng, what are you talking about? Honoring your parents is a virtue of our Chinese nation. You should pick up your parents first and then come to me. This is what you should do. By the way, Xiao Feng,

Have your parents eaten?"

I hurriedly said: "I have already prepared food for them at home. When they got home, I immediately heated it up in the microwave."

He nodded and said: "That's good. If you delay their meal because you are coming to pay me New Year greetings, then my sin will be great."

I said: "Governor Huang, please don't say that. They are my biological parents, but you have been kind to me. It is right for me to pick up my parents today, and it is also necessary for me to come to greet you in the New Year."

Governor Huang laughed and said, "Xiao Feng, you are really good at talking."

Lin Yu went to make tea just now. Now she has come over. She put the teapot on the coffee table and immediately poured three cups of tea. At the same time, she said with a smile: "Teacher Huang, it's all my fault today. I went to express my condolences to a few people today."

Old comrade, I ended up forgetting to tell Feng Xiao about coming to your place. It was only in the evening that I suddenly remembered that he was at the train station when I called him. It’s all my fault.”

Governor Huang waved his hand suddenly, "Stop talking. Aren't you here? I haven't rested yet. It's okay, Lin Yu, you can come and sit too."

Lin Yu hurriedly sat down and then came to see me, "Feng Xiao, please quickly take out the manuscript and show it to Governor Huang? What are you doing there?"

I hurriedly took the paper bag over. When I entered the door just now, I put it on the edge of the sofa. Lin Yu reached out to me and said, "Give it to me."

Although I didn't understand why she asked me to give this thing to her, I still obeyed her order.

Lin Yu took the paper bag from my hand, and the first thing he took out was not a manuscript, but a beautifully packaged watch, "Feng Xiao, what is this? Ah, Patek Philippe, this watch is good, you give it to me

Teacher Huang’s?”

I immediately understood her intention of taking the paper bag from my hand, and I hurriedly said: "Sister, this is my little thought for Governor Huang. This thing is not worth a few dollars, it is just my little thought.

"

In fact, when Lin Yu mentioned the brand "Patek Philippe" just now, I couldn't help but feel shocked, because I had a full understanding of Swiss watches before buying a watch some time ago, and I knew that it was one of the most famous watches in the world.

Recognized as the best brand, it is known as the "blue-blooded aristocrat among watches." Since its inception, Patek Philippe has been committed to producing the most extraordinary luxury watches in the world. Because manually refined watches are extremely time-consuming, Patek Philippe's mechanical watches only produce 100,000 pieces per year.

Produced 20,000 pieces. Only Patek Philippe can be engraved with the Geneva Seal on each watch. It is said that it takes ten years to train a Patek Philippe watchmaker, and it takes at least five or six years to create a complex Patek Philippe from design to delivery.

Time, if it is tailor-made, it will take seven or eight years. This time includes four years of design, nearly one year of production and three months of quality control. Just imagine, what kind of quality does such careful production get?

In addition, every Patek Philippe that leaves the factory has its own name, and every watch is recorded. It is said that more than 20 years ago, a wealthy man in China was invited to participate in an auction one day, and a

No one wanted an old Patek Philippe pocket watch that had been worn for N years. On a whim, he bought it for 40,000 yuan. After getting it, he felt that it was a pity that the 40,000 yuan watch did not move, so he took it to a watch shop to have it repaired.

The master who repaired the watch told him frankly that the repair could not be done and there were no spare parts. He suggested that he contact the original factory and give it a try. He followed the master's instructions.

He contacted the Swiss Embassy. After the people from the Commercial Office of the embassy enthusiastically accepted the relevant materials and photos, they said they would help him contact the manufacturer. A month later, a letter came from Patek Philippe. The letter said: Dear Sir, Hello

After verification, this watch was indeed made by us. It was ordered by a certain Shandong general about eighty years ago for his grandfather's birthday. Unfortunately, this watch is broken and its maker has passed away.

, our company still retains the accessories and drawings left by the producer. We are honored to inform you that this watch can be repaired, but please send the watch back to Switzerland... The rich man sent the watch to the address in the letter

, the watch returned half a year later was accurate and brand new.

Governor Huang's eyes suddenly changed, "Show it to me."

Lin Yu smiled and handed the watch to him, "Teacher Huang, I know you are the person who likes watches the most. Take a look, what do you think of this watch?"

Governor Huang was holding a gorgeous-looking box. As he slowly opened the box, I saw the appearance of the watch inside. It was really beautiful! There was a circle within the square.

The round case is square, with both round roundness and rectangular straight edges. A small diamond is set at the six o'clock position between the lugs, and it is paired with a blue crocodile leather strap of the same tone.

Governor Huang held it and admired it slowly, "Well, it's very good. The trava cross star logo on it completely proves its authentic origin. Look at the strap of this watch. The width and length of the case are measured by the golden section.

It is made with perfect proportions, showing a mysterious sense of harmony. Well, not bad. Xiao Feng, this thing is worth a lot of money, it cost you a lot of money."

I hurriedly said: "Governor Huang, this is my little wish, you are too kind to say it."

He looked at me, "Xiao Feng, did you buy this watch yourself?"

I was startled for a moment, and then replied: "Yes, I bought it myself. You see, the piece I am wearing is also what I just bought."

Then I exposed my wrist to him, and he took a look and said, "Although your watch is also a famous watch, it is much worse than the one you gave me. Haha! Thank you. Xiao Feng, since

You went to buy the watch in person, so let me test you: What is the cultural heritage of the Patek Philippe brand? What kind of concept do they promote?"

At this time, I suddenly became nervous when I saw Lin Yu. I couldn't help but secretly say "fortunately" in my heart. At this moment, I suddenly understood something: it is not easy to mess with the person in front of me.

Isn't this? Even Lin Yu is getting nervous now.

But I am very lucky, because I like to learn, and whenever I come into contact with something new, I always like to look up the relevant knowledge. In fact, this is still my previous professional habit. After all, I work in the clinical department of the hospital affiliated to the Medical University.

After staying there for so long, I have already developed this kind of study habit.

I immediately replied: "Governor Huang, when I bought this watch, I read some information about it. I remember that there seemed to be a sentence written in the brochure of this watch: No one can own a Patek Philippe.

It’s just kept for the next generation. I think maybe this is the concept they want to express.”

He looked at me with a smile on his face, "Hmm. Not bad. So how do you understand the true meaning of this sentence?"

I began to organize words nervously, and at the same time recalled the relevant information about this watch that I had seen. I replied: "I think the true meaning of life is to be passed down from generation to generation. And Patek Philippe can be passed on to the next generation.

Continue to watch time with the next generation. Because for all Patek Philippe purchased from regular channels, the buyer's information will be registered in the Watch and Clock Archives in Geneva. When the owner of the watch changes, such as gifting, inheritance, etc., the file will also be

Subsequently, more than 160 years have passed. This brand, with the blood of nobility flowing through its body, has the most famous celebrities in the world, including Einstein, Marie Curie, Tchaikovsky, as well as princes and nobles from various countries.

With its distinguished customer base, this brand has always adhered to the century-old principle of 'configuring the most complex structure in the simplest design', creating countless miracles in the watchmaking industry. Patek Philippe wants to tell everyone that its dignity is not only

It lies in its precision, uniqueness, excellence and nobility, but also in its durability, permanence and continuity. Its value is a lasting value and cannot be measured by pure money. It contains extraordinary beauty, legendary craftsmanship and excellence.

"The credibility of the watch, and," I paused before continuing, "and the loyalty to the present and future owners. A truly excellent watch can be felt the moment it comes into contact with the skin."

Get. This is an invisible, silent emotional exchange that only exists between the watch and the owner, as if they are guarding a spiritual home together and listening to the flow of time in silence."

Governor Huang looked at me in surprise, "Xiao Feng, you said it so well. Although this watch is valuable, it is a personal possession after all. I think the most valuable thing is your thoughtfulness. Thank you.

, I accept this gift of yours."

I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief secretly and thought to myself: You don’t know, my vest is wet now!

Lin Yu was looking at me very surprised at first, but at this moment, the surprise on her face had already turned into joy. Then she took out the manuscript from the paper bag and said, "Teacher Huang, look.

"

Governor Huang's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this manuscript, "Give it to me and I'll take a closer look... Ah, yes, it is indeed my father's handwriting. This is something he wrote when he was in his fifties.

Yes! Xiao Feng, I heard that Minister Lin said that your father-in-law asked you to forward it to me on your behalf?"

I nodded, "Yes."

He smiled and said: "Boss Lin, he has really good intentions. Tell him that I thank him for his kindness. But please also tell him that everything can only be done in accordance with the laws and regulations of the country. I

I will never open the back door for him." (To be continued)
