Chapter 696 - Place Vendôme
"Where's the orange diamond?" Rebecca looked at the pile of gems in the box, but didn't find the orange diamond that Xiao Peng had shown them. Curious asked.
Xiao Peng scratched his head: "Maybe it's under the box, or it's in the room? I don't know where to throw it." ”
Everyone was speechless together, can you talk a little more? Knowing that you have a lot of gems, don't you have to hold a bean bag like this and not use dry food? Any gem in this can make a woman crazy, right?
Xiao Peng closed the box and held it in his hand: "Look at your rare and strange appearance, you can't let you see these gems, otherwise it won't be shameful." Tsk, all of them are people who have seen the world with heads and faces, and now they have become like this, not enough to be laughed at. I'm going to give the single dog a call, let's go, Armand is still waiting for us. ”
Richard suddenly stopped in front of Xiao Peng, which startled Xiao Peng: "Richard, what are you going to do? Don't say that you want to rob, believe it or not, I can hang you on the wall at the entrance of your hotel and let you make a sign?"
Richard was speechless, "I'm going to rob a head! I want to tell you, I'm going to order a set of jewelry from you! Give it to Rebecca's mother as a gift!"
"You're looking for the wrong person for me, I'm not a jeweler! You think I look like a jewelry seller?" Xiao Peng looked at Richard.
Richard nodded: "Like!"
Xiao Peng coughed dryly: "Richard, just let Pageo introduce Armand to you when the time comes, why are you so excited?"
Richard said, "Are you sure you can sell the good gems?"
Xiao Peng laughed: "Am I the kind of selfish person?"
"Yes!" the three of them replied to him this time.
"Damn! Friends are gone!" Xiao Peng picked up the phone and called the 'single dog' directly, asking him to come and pick him up quickly, so he really couldn't talk anymore.
"Don't go, Xiao, can we discuss?" Richard didn't give up.
Xiao Peng sighed and said, "Richard, aren't you going to have a meeting? Don't be in a daze here, I don't know which gems I want to keep, isn't it okay for Rebecca to follow us and let him tell you the final result? You definitely can't look down on ordinary gemstones, you can buy them anywhere, but if the gems are too good, I must want to keep them for myself, right? So let's talk about it in the end." ”
"Don't worry!" Richard suddenly stopped Xiao Peng, took his mobile phone and began to arrange, after a while, a convoy stopped at the door of the hotel, a group of black suits came down from it, and the single dog was still waiting for Xiao Peng by the car at the door of the hotel, and suddenly several black suits came to his side and startled him.
Xiao Peng was also puzzled after seeing all this: "Richard, what does this mean?"
"You should have strengthened the security with such a precious thing!" Richard said.
Xiao Peng was speechless: "As for me, I've been running half the world with these things on my back." There was no danger in sight. ”
"Shaw, you can't underestimate this place, this is Paris!" said Richard.
Xiao Peng pouted: "Isn't it Paris? I don't believe that Paris is more chaotic than the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and even more chaotic than Uganda, Rwanda, Somalia, and Zimbabwe。。。。。。 ”
"Well, it's safety first, safety first. Richard said.
Xiao Peng did not refuse Richard's kindness, and the convoy drove towards Vendôme Square.
Near the Louvre, Place Vendôme has a resounding nickname called the 'Parisian Jewellery Box', where the most exclusive jewellery brands from all over Gallic have set up their boutiques, as well as the Ritz, the most expensive hotel in Paris.
The whole square is surrounded by historic buildings with tall arches on the ground floor, and don't underestimate these buildings, each of which has a great history: 15 Place Vendôme is the Ritz, 12 Place Vendôme is where Chopin died, now the 'Baudard de Saint James' hotel, where the headquarters of the Jewels are located, 8 is the flagship store of Dior, 10 is Patek Philippe, and there are 'Piaget', 'Chanel', 'Bulgari', 'Cartier', 'Bossini', 'LV', And so on and so forth, and you can find almost all the top brands here.
This Vendôme Square is full of three-wheeled motorcycles, just like the 'three jumpers' in China, and tourists visit Vendôme Square in this car. Who said that only developing countries have this kind of tripod jumper? When I arrived at Vendôme Place, I realized that the number of cars here is really not small, and there are at least 1,000 tripods here in the entire Vendôme Plaza, and that is a car by car, and the traffic is called a difference.
Let these three jumpers block, the traffic in the Place Vendôme is called a difference, Xiao Peng and the others simply got off the bus in advance and walked to Van Cleef & Arpels.
Surrounded by a group of bodyguards, Xiao Peng followed them helplessly, carrying this box in his hand and following the team, those bodyguards were all big guys, and Xiao Peng stood in the middle like a little chicken.
"Is this necessary?" Xiao Peng said to Pagio beside him with a wry smile: "Do you usually go out like this?
"It's good to make some arrangements. In these years, the heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. ”
Xiao Peng tilted his head and asked Rebecca: "You usually go out like this?"
Rebecca said: "When I went to school, I was picked up by a driver, and I was accompanied by bodyguards at the beginning of my trip, so I couldn't even find my friends, and in the end I had no choice but to protest with my father for a long time before I regained my freedom." In the end, no one followed me. ”
Pagio smiled: "Rebecca, believe me, it's just that no one follows you on the surface, and I don't know how many people follow you secretly." ”
Xiao Peng shrugged: "You guys are really tired, only those showbiz stars in our China are looking for so many bodyguards to accompany them, and I don't know if it's to prevent fans or to show off, those top tycoons only bring a few bodyguards when they attend any public event, and then look at you, alas, are you tired or not." ”
Rebecca was puzzled and asked, "Then aren't you afraid of being targeted?"
"Huaxia is the safest country in the world, and it's okay for us to wander around the streets in the middle of the night, not like you, and we have to be afraid when we go out at night, for fear that someone will pop up and knock you down. Xiao Peng said.
A few people said not to go, and a group of people attracted the attention of countless people on the street. Xiao Peng is as embarrassed as he wants, but Padgio and they are used to it.
"Peggy, how far is it?" Xiao Peng asked.
Pagio pointed to the front right: "Just turn right ahead." ”
Xiao Peng scratched his head: "There should be a square there, right?"
"Well, how do you know? Where is the Fontaine Column, which looks like the Roman Trajan's Column, 44 meters high, made from 1,250 cannons captured by the Gallic army at the Battle of Austerlitz. The spiral depicts scenes from Napoleon's conquests, and a bronze statue of Napoleon Bonaparte stands at the top of the column. Van Cleef & Arpels is right next to the bronze pillar. Padgio explained.
Xiao Peng had a suddenly realized expression: "I said how do you feel familiar here, what is that cartoon called? "Resident Evil - Deterioration"? The final battle scene, isn't this the place where Lyon vs. 'Tyrant'?"
Rebecca looked left and right: "It's quite similar, of course, it's still a little different." ”
Pagio looked confused: "What are you talking about?"
"You're outdated! Lovely Peggy, that's a topic for young people. Peggy, you haven't been on the Huaxia for so long, haven't you been to the ship's movie theater? There are a lot of movies that young people watch, and you have nothing to do with them, otherwise there will be no common topic. Xiao Peng said.
Pagio pointed to his nose, "Am I old? Where am I old? I feel at least ten years younger after meeting you!"
"That's not enough, at least thirty years younger!" Xiao Peng said.
"Armand!" Xiao Peng saw Armand, who was standing at the door of the store waiting for him, so he hurriedly greeted him.
As a result, Armand heard Xiao Peng's call and looked left and right, but did not see Xiao Peng. He didn't see Xiao Peng until Xiao Peng walked up to him.
"I'll go, you have a problem with your eyes, you don't see me?" Xiao Peng looked at Armand speechlessly.
Armand and Xiao Peng hugged warmly and said, "I didn't see you at all, I only saw such a group of bodyguards." What's the matter with you? I haven't seen you in a long time, and you're in such a big battle right now. I didn't expect you to travel with so many people. ”
Xiao Peng shrugged: "I don't want to either, they arranged it." Xiao Peng finished speaking, pointing to Padgio and Rebecca.
Pagio laughed, "It's not my business, to be precise, it was all arranged by Rebecca's father, but I think it's the right arrangement." Armand, to introduce you, this is Richard Branson's daughter Rebecca, the daughter of the president of the Virgin Group. ”
After Armand and Rebecca exchanged pleasantries, Armand beckoned everyone to go to the store, looking at the group of bodyguards, Armand smiled bitterly: "Xiao, you are now bigger than Padgio." Such a large group of bodyguards. ”
Pagio said: "This is really not Xiao Xuan, I think Richard is right to arrange so many bodyguards, Armand, you don't know, our uneasy friend just wounded four gypsies a few days ago, or with a gun." Although he has no responsibility and is completely self-defensive, you know, those gypsies don't tell you the law. What if the revenge comes back?"
"They dare to retaliate, I'll be honest if I abolish a few of them again!" Xiao Peng said disdainfully.
Armand suddenly realized: "Oh? No wonder the 16th arrondissement has been vigorously cleaning up the wandering gypsies, so the problem lies here." You can't use so many bodyguards, right?"
Padgio sighed: "Armand, if you see the contents of Xiao Peng's box, you will feel that there are too few of these bodyguards. ”
Armand didn't know what was in the box, and he didn't take Pageo's heart to heart, beckoning a few people to sit in the VIP room, and by the way, his assistant went to make coffee for the guests.
As a result, before his assistant finished brewing coffee, he saw Armand hurriedly running out of the VIP room: "Miss Paula, let Mr. Lajo find all the security personnel to ensure the safety of the VIP room, no one is allowed to come in without permission!"
Padgio was right, when Armand saw the contents of the suitcase, he really felt that there were too few security personnel.
