Chapter 73: Watching a Movie?
"It's really similar to the SOS convenience store in Billings. ”
Han Xuan put a piece of eel sushi on the plate, and smiled at his grandfather: "No, it can't be called a convenience store now, it's a department store." ”
"I also found out that Billings's house made money to renovate like this, there is a convenience store below, and the upper floors are empty anyway, so it is better to create some value than a warehouse. I've only renovated 25 stores, and I'm going to roll them out in first- and second-tier cities, Ms. Whitney, you know?"
"Well, I've seen her a few times, and now she doesn't seem to be in Billings?"
"She was transferred by me to the headquarters to take charge of the department store, Chanel, Prada, Dior, Versace and other first-line luxury companies have agreed, Gucci and Givenchy have talked about it, and she is now going to the United Kingdom to discuss with Burberry about moving in. ”
"In the end, it is these luxury goods that make money. ”
Old Man Han bent down and picked up an empty plate, and said politely to Little John and Benjamin: "You can also eat some, just feel free." ”
This is a cafeteria on the eighth floor, the whole color is dark red, the small lamps hang above the tables, and the surrounding wall has been transformed into floor-to-ceiling glass, and the outside is the center of Times Square.
Looking for a two-person table by the window, Han Xuan picked up a fork and handed a piece of sushi to his mouth, and nodded: "It tastes good." ”
"Of course, the chef was recruited from a two-Michelin star, and I spent a lot of money on liquidated damages. ”
The old man cut a steak and handed it to his grandson: "You taste this." ”
"Well, from the Snow Mountain Ranch?" Han Xuan immediately guessed when he saw that he was so enthusiastic, and he bit his mouth and wiped his mouth and said, "Then how much does it cost here?" ”
"$288 per person. The old man held up two fingers.
Han Xuan was stunned and looked around. It was just ten o'clock, which was the worst business time, and there were already more than a dozen people dining.
Sure enough, it is the richest city in the United States, shaking his head and feeling that there are so many rich people, and he can live for a week with two dollars in his ranch pocket, and there is no place to spend money at all.
"Wait where to go, I haven't seen you for a long time. After the old man finished speaking, he saw the boy's eyes, suddenly understood, and laughed: "By the way, this is New York." ”
"I've called Anya and I'm going to her studio in the afternoon. Han Xuan buried his face, and at this time, going to see the old man was definitely to find guilt for himself.
"After eating, how about finding a car and letting John accompany you? I took care of the company's affairs, and for the next few days, I pushed you to go to school, Principal Gregorian and I were classmates back then. ”
Han Xuan swallowed the steak and said happily, "Isn't that okay?"
", it's only going to be stricter, I'll make him look after you. The old man asked, "Have you thought about the professional aspect?"
"I'm going to study psychology. ”
"Then don't think about it, I helped you apply for business management and marketing, as well as business studies, if you are still interested in taking a third degree, I have no opinion on choosing psychology. ”
"Three degrees, double degrees won't work, okay! You have to take 30 courses for a major, and all of them must be above the C grade, you want me to graduate at the age of 18!?" Han Xuan leaned forward and shouted in a low voice.
The old man waved his hand: "Many of the two courses coincide, and besides, you are a genius, it's very simple." ”
"I'm done eating, I'll have a meeting later, let's go. ”
Seeing that his grandfather was really dry, Han Xuan puffed up a steak and chewed it heavily: "I knew to listen to my father, and I will forget it in a few years." ”
Little John sat across from him: "Where did the boss just say I should send you?"
"Brooklyn there, in Williamsburg. ”
Han Xuan put down the dishes: "Now go over, right?"
"Well, I can drive, but where's Brooklyn? You know, I've been in California before, and I've only been in New York for a few days. ”
“…… What about Mr. Benjamin?"
Little John pointed to the door: "I have someone to take him to rest, do you want to call him?"
"Forget it, wait and ask if there is a map here, don't worry. ”
……
Han Xuan suddenly missed electronic navigation very much, otherwise he would not have taken the wrong path twice with the map.
Departing at eleven o'clock, it was not far away, but it took two hours to arrive.
Williams's "Doloris Oil Painting Gallery" closed the door, and no one opened it after knocking for a long time, and the boy was dumbfounded.
"Is there a telephone?" asked Little John.
Han Xuan nodded, pointed to the door and said, "It's the number here, I haven't heard of moving, if there is someone, it should live in it, but now it seems that there is no one." ”
"So do you want to wait or go back first?"
"Wait"
I stood at the door for more than half an hour, and my legs were sore.
There was a little girl with a picture clip on her back, a small white padded jacket on her body, her hair draped behind her, she jumped over and punched Han Xuan's shoulder: "Yes, I haven't left yet." ”
"Huh?"
"I've been watching you at the café across the street, and I'm so stupid that I didn't even notice it. ”
"Huh!?" Little John burst into tears, and he himself lay down with a gun.
Han Xuan thought that he was lucky not to leave, and said to her speechlessly, "What about Lady Cecilia?"
"My mom went to the art exhibition, I'm here today, I know what it's like to wait for someone, I've been here for more than an hour!" Anya took out the key to open the door and invited them in.
The boy stretched out his hand and gestured, muttering, "Why do you grow taller than me?" ”
Crystal purple eyes blinked: "Because it's a girl." ”
"Huh?" cried out little John in surprise.
Probably used to it, and before asking Anya, she said in advance: "Naturally, I can't eat people, I can't transform, and I can't fly." ”
Little John didn't react, as if he was sluggish, and it took a few seconds before he burst out laughing: "You guys talk about it first, I'll wait in the car, if you want to go, just look for me." ”
"Do you know where the car is parked, Han?"
"Yes, thank you. ”
After Little John left, Han Xuan moved a chair and sat down, turning his head to look at the wall.
Or a few years ago, on that wall, there were only three classical oil paintings, one of which was particularly brightly colored, and Han Xuan pointed to it and asked, "Why is it different?"
Putting down the painting folder, Anya sorted out her clothes and looked at him: "It's a big difference, I've been painting for half a year and trying my best to imitate my mother, but it still doesn't work." ”
The boy walked over and looked at it carefully, then looked back and smiled, "It's already good, at least I can't draw it." ”
"What's the point of comparing to you, but you can write books, I read "Harry Both", it's awesome. ”
"Did I receive the letter I sent you from the Maldives?" Secretly diverted the topic, no matter how good the book idea is, Han Xuan never thought of publishing it, but now he has cut off the future of an English woman, and he is always a little uncomfortable.
He took a stool and sat on it, staring at the boy with wide eyes: "What a magical fluorescent beach, it's like a dream, can I draw it?"
"Of course, I'll take half of the sale. ”
"That's it, deal!"
Anya smiled and narrowed her eyes, resting her head on the back of the seat: "What are you going to do now? I will listen to your arrangement today, and I have asked the teacher for leave in the afternoon." ”
Han Xuan held back for a long time, and popped out a word: "Watching a movie?"
