Chapter 29 Man by Clothing
In his previous life in New York, the place where Ye Dongqing stayed the longest was Downtown New York, where in addition to Chinatown, there is also a Wall Street.
For most of the year, he stays on Wall Street to handle business, and no one cares what kind of business he does, as long as he is sure that he has a large amount of money in his account, it is not easy for Chinese people to squeeze into the circle of the rich, but it is much easier to have hundreds of millions of dollars in assets under his name.
The affluent atmosphere in the United States creates the illusion that billionaires are everywhere.
But in fact, until more than ten years later, according to the results of the Forbes rich list, there are only more than 500 people with a wealth of more than 100 million US dollars.
Considering the phenomenon of hidden assets, it is estimated that there are about 1,000 people, and there are many low-key rich people who have no money in their names, but have hidden assets such as charitable trusts, antiques, and overseas wealth.
Either way, he was rich at that time, for sure.
After being on Wall Street for a long time, it is inevitable that you will be contaminated with bad thinking habits, and get along with a bunch of "foxes", "hungry wolves", and "mice" day and night, and it is strange that you can learn well.
It is harmful and unhelpful to the three views, but I have to admit that when it comes to making money, they are all elites. It's often said that sometimes focusing on something is likely to lead to surprising achievements, and Wall Street people like to keep an eye on money, so they play with all kinds of ways to make money.
Ye Dongqing also belongs to one of them, which can be regarded as a relatively successful category, at least before being poisoned and forced to jump off the building, it can be called successful.
When old Sam dies unexpectedly, he immediately thinks of other ideas to make money, and no matter how much Laura asks, he doesn't tell her what he plans to do.
After drinking a little more, still conscious, I took a taxi to Fifth Avenue after the meal to shop.
The roadside lights are bright, the high-rise buildings are full of signs, and more than 5,000 high-rise buildings are crowded on the tiny island of Manhattan, causing the locals to be the least welcome to high-rise buildings, and a large group of New Yorkers even sell their real estate to go to the Midwest to buy farms and ranches, and only they know how they feel about leaving the metropolis.
There is still some time before the arrival of Black Friday, there are not many roadside vehicles, except for the people who don't care about money, more consumers are holding back their energy to wait for the arrival of the discount promotion season, and then buy it can be several discounts.
Ye Dongqing will definitely not wait for more than a month for a few hundred dollars to be cheaper, now there is not much money, but the concept of consumption is very advanced, in his eyes, money is used to spend, rather than how to save money, he is more willing to think about how to make more money.
This is an idea that only arises after becoming a rich man, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have the confidence that they will make a lot of money in the future without his courage and ability.
Therefore, it is better to save money honestly and save money, otherwise in the event of a sudden crisis, individuals and small families are prone to bankruptcy. Sometimes the truth summed up by the rich does not apply to ordinary people, and the biographies in the bookstore are more like successful people showing off their achievements.
did not encounter the vulgar scene of the clerk looking down on people, Ye Dongqing and Laura were in the Dior (Dior) women's clothing store, and they also successfully rubbed two cups of hot cocoa.
There is no shortage of high-end stores on Fifth Avenue, and the competition is relatively high, but given the incomes of the American middle and upper classes, and the strength of the dollar for more than half a century, these stores are relatively expensive. Take Rolex's Submariner collection, for example, the average middle-class family can buy a piece a month, and compared with a watch that costs thousands of dollars, a set of Dior women's clothing is cheaper, generally selling for a few hundred to two thousand dollars.
It was only in developing countries, where currencies were worthless, that these brands were transformed into highly scrambled luxury goods......
Miss Laura wore a pink sweater under her clothes today, which didn't match the white lady's formal attire, and the clerk also brought a black sweater and asked her to go to the fitting room to change in.
Except for the girl named Liuli, Ye Dongqing has never bought clothes for other women, and it can be easily solved with money, so why do you have to do more?
Waiting for a woman to change her clothes slowly is really not a happy thing for a man, and at the moment he is thinking impatiently about how a set of clothes has not come out after wearing it for nearly ten minutes. I wanted to go home to sleep, but I finally realized that it was the wrong choice to accompany me to buy clothes, holding coffee in my hand and scanning the leather bags on the shelves.
Just as most women don't understand men's dedication to cars and famous watches, Ye Dongqing can't understand why women like bags so much, a few pieces of broken skin and some zippers can be easily sold at a high price, and she sighs that women's money is really easy to make.
I heard the clatter of my high heels on the ground and turned my head to look over.
Laura was wearing a white suit and black high heels, and her hair was tied in a ponytail before, with a natural curly and wavy feeling, just the right amplitude.
Changing clothes, wearing high heels, his temperament has completely changed, as if he has changed people, and his age seems to have increased a few years out of thin air, which is exactly what Ye Dongqing hopes to see, a bit of a female white-collar worker.
"The heels you gave me are seven centimeters, I haven't worn shoes that tall before, these five centimeters are just right. Miss Laura looked down at her feet and said.
"It's good, just this outfit.
Wear it directly on her body, wrap up the clothes she wore before, and ask for shoes and sweaters. ”
Ye Dongqing said the latter sentence to the shopping guide, pointed to a black handbag by the way, and continued to speak: "And it, tell me how much it is in total, thank you for swiping the card." ”
"But I still have a set of clothes that I haven't changed, the black one!"
"Don't, you're so good-looking, just take them, I'll pay for the money, and it will be deducted from your salary in the future. Afraid that she would change for more than ten minutes, Ye Dongqing, a straight man, had no patience to wait, so he interrupted directly.
has just been praised for her good looks, followed by a deduction of wages, Laura is now very short of money, and she is extremely sensitive to this kind of talk, and the corners of her eyes twitched.
The clerk next to him couldn't help laughing, he couldn't understand the complicated relationship between Ye Dongqing and Laura, and thought it was a young couple, but now it seems that he has become a subordinate and a boss.
The POS machine was sent to him, and he asked lightly if he would cut off the tag now, and if he didn't cut it, he could return it, but he couldn't cut it. Hearing Ye Dongqing nodding and saying cut it, Laura's idea of wearing it for a few days and then returning it was directly swept into the trash by herself.
A complete set costs more than 2,900 US dollars, mainly expensive in the purse, to ask Laura how she feels, the first time in her life that it is so valuable, you must be in a good mood.
It's a pity that I just left the store, and I couldn't be happy immediately.
The clothes were not thick, and a cold wind blew on the body, whether it was the neck or the ankles, all of them were cold, and I couldn't help but sneeze.
Look at Ye Dongqing, who was wearing a down jacket, how to look at how angry, seeing that he was walking fast, he followed quickly with three big bags.
Barely a friend, impossible......
