Chapter 256: Tender Shopping Season
In a clothing store, Kong Miao stopped in front of a row of cheongsam display cases, Han Zhifeng also stopped, and after two glances, he knew the reason why Kong Miao stopped.
The cheongsam here is very different from the domestic one, the influence of the domestic cheongsam Beijing style is very heavy, and it is also related to the domestic atmosphere, the color is dark, and the pattern selection is more conservative.
And the cheongsam here has a lot of conspicuous colors, especially some flower pattern cheongsam colors are very eye-catching, unforgettable, don't look at it is winter, in California, especially in the south of it, most of the year can wear cheongsam,
"This lady, why don't you try it on, the cheongsams here are all handmade, not only beautiful but also carry-on, you can also customize them here according to your figure,"
A petite Chinese woman in her thirties introduced with a smile.
Her Mandarin has too many Shanghainese accents, and Kong Miao, a native of Qianjiang, listened very kindly, she and the woman quickly talked and laughed, and then the woman accompanied her to the back of the interview clothes.
After a few minutes, when Kong Miao appeared in front of Han Zhifeng again, Han Zhifeng was extremely surprised.
A cheongsam with a lotus pattern with abstract imprints sets off Kong Miao's wonderful figure, the towering plumpness, the thin waist that Yingying holds, and the long legs with extreme temptation revealed by the high slit make Han Zhifeng's eyes linger involuntarily.
Kong Miao saw Han Zhifeng's strange appearance, her heart was beating rapidly, but her heart was sweet and sad, she confirmed the extreme temptation of Han Zhifeng, Han Zhifeng had her confirmed in his heart, but he was a little confused about the future.
Kong Miao walked in front of the fitting mirror, and was very satisfied to see her new image, but at the same time, her eyes were constantly looking at Han Zhifeng in the mirror, and some greedy gaze in Han Zhifeng's eyes disappeared, but her eyes followed her with appreciation, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, which made Kong Miao feel the magic of long-lost love, she was excited, apprehensive, and hopeful.
"Ms. Kong, you are so beautiful in this cheongsam, you can't leave your boyfriend's eyes anymore,"
The woman's shopping guide whispered, saying that it was a whisper, but the volume was just right for Han Zhifeng to hear, in fact, it was intentional, a means of promotion.
Your girlfriend is very satisfied, and you don't hurry up and pay for it.
Han Zhifeng did not deny it, is it necessary, it is not in China, nor in a familiar environment, here he didn't want to refute, is it good to embarrass Kong Miao after rebuttal, when the Spring Festival is approaching in this foreign country, it is the most important thing to make Kong Miao happy.
'yes, it's very beautiful, very charming,'
Han Zhifeng's eyes looked at Kong Miao, Kong Miao's heart jumped, she knew that Han Zhifeng didn't really mean that she was his girlfriend, but as long as he admitted it here, it was one of her wishes to be able to play with him like a couple here, and now it has come true.
Kong Miao also gave Han Zhifeng a charming smile, kissed her lips lightly, and then she laughed, at this moment she didn't think much about it, she just wanted to let herself go.
"How much does this cheongsam cost,"
Han Zhifeng asked.
"Three hundred and eighteen dollars,"
The female shopping guide is a little less confident, more than 300 US dollars a cheongsam is expensive enough, equivalent to nearly 3,000 yuan, the domestic high-income class is also a month's salary is gone, many domestic tourists come here to appreciate such a cheongsam, but try on the price and immediately retreat.
The dozens of female shopping guides meet can only buy one, and the people who buy here are actually American women.
'Then take this one, and pick a few more, I look very beautiful,'
Han Zhifeng said with a smile, the female shopping guide was overjoyed.
"No, I'd like to order one, it's a little loose here, and it's a little too tight here,"
Kong Miao pointed to her waist and chest, and said proudly.
Han Zhifeng's eyes involuntarily looked at the two charming positions, and then hurriedly turned his gaze, he didn't want to turn into a beast, seeing his appearance, Kong Miao smiled slightly, she felt for the first time that she had taken the initiative, and there was a sense of hard-won victory.
"Okay, okay, I'll go and call our master over immediately,"
The female shopping guide was pleasantly surprised.
"Well, however, we order a cheongsam for five hundred dollars a piece,"
She looked at Han Zhifeng,
"It's not a problem, I pay the bill myself,"
Kong Miao said that she didn't want to owe too much, and her salary of more than 100,000 US dollars a year was enough for her expenses.
"Didn't you make other people look down on me,"
Han Zhifeng resolutely disagreed, Kong Miao bit his lip lightly, and his heart was very warm.
'I'll pay, you go,'
Han Zhifeng waved his hand decisively, and the female shopping guide entered the back.
A Chinese woman with a thin dress and some mixed-race characteristics walked out with the female shopping guide and chatted with Kong Miao with a smile, Kong Miao said that she didn't need to go to the back, just measure the size here.
In Kong Miao's opinion, Han Zhifeng can no longer be regarded as an outsider, let him see some, not only does she not feel embarrassed, but she feels very excited, because she is showing her beauty in front of him.
The costume designer and Kong Miao chatted in a relaxed whisper, constantly measuring Kong Miao's size in his hands, and the soft ruler walked under Kong Miao's armpits, chest, waist, and hips, outlining a seductive picture.
Kong Miao was a little shy and proud to look at Han Zhifeng from time to time, while Han Zhifeng looked at her from time to time with some dodging and some reluctance, and the atmosphere was a little ambiguous.
When it was all over, Han Zhifeng breathed a sigh of relief, he finally realized Kong Miao's attraction to him.
Han Zhifeng checked out, left the deposit, and walked out of the store with Kong Miao at a very psychedelic moment.
Han Zhifeng and Kong Miao went to several car sales companies, after Han Zhifeng's Opel car was damaged, Han Zhifeng has been using the square-headed Santana, not that he doesn't want to buy, but there are really no cars in China except for Japanese cars and German cars with square heads, and he still used Santana to deal with it first.
But now that he has the opportunity to go to the United States, the kingdom of automobiles, of course he has to buy a few cars.
After walking a few houses, Han Zhifeng left the Japanese and Korean systems, and saw the square-headed Mercedes-Benz off-road, GM Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe and Ford Explorer second generation, several large SUVs, Han Zhifeng will not forget the tragic car accident he encountered, beautiful high-speed is not the main thing, being able to protect himself is the most important.
"If it's you, which car do you choose,"
Han Zhifeng's ability in this area is almost there, and Liu Hao, Zhou Gui and others have no experience of going abroad at all, and they don't know anything about these cars. Han Zhifeng was also ashamed to ask.
'If you say that the fuel economy is exquisite, it has to be a German car, if it is safe and dynamic, I think the Chevrolet suburban is the best, the president of the United States and the guard travel are this modified car, in fact, the Tahoe car is also quite good, it is just a short-axle version of the suburban, it is also a very strong SUV, but it is more suitable for driving in the city, if I choose, it is the Tahoe, the power is good, the safety is high, it is expensive. ”
Kong Miao really gave a reliable suggestion, since the president-level guards also chose this platform, then it is it.
"Okay,"
Han Zhifeng nodded.
"What,"
Kong Miao said a little dazed.
Han Zhifeng beckoned the sales of this car sales store, a young man with a thin body and freckles.
The young man smiled attentively, and he heard the price of a black suburban, a burgundy tahoe, a royal blue tahoe, and a black tahoe.
The young man's face twitched, and he asked to look at the two handsome Asian men and women, thinking about receiving a lot of Asian high-rollers who bought cars a few months ago, but it was the school season at the time, and now it is a little dazzling, is it true,
"If you continue to hesitate, we're going to go to another one, maybe we have nothing to do with your boss when we're gone, but you're going to lose a lot of sales, don't you think?"
Kong Miao teased this freckle boy a little, the young man was excited, yes, the boss didn't know if the guest left, but it had a lot to do with him, if these four cars were sold, he would have a commission income of several thousand dollars, which was not a small amount of money.
'Do you need a high-speed version with a 5L engine or a low-speed version with a 4.6-engine suburban, tahoe do you need four-wheel drive or two-wheel drive,'
The young man introduced.
"High-speed and four-wheel drive,"
Han Zhifeng said.
"Well, we don't seem to have a high-speed version of the suburban here,"
The guy's nose was sweaty, and he felt as if he was going to lose customers.
Han Zhifeng was speechless, it was too unfortunate, he was about to leave with Kong Miao in his arms, when a tall woman in her thirties with black hair and blue eyes in a gray dress walked over,
"Sorry, we actually have a more advanced suburban here, I don't know if you're interested,"
People are very beautiful, but their tone is very high-pitched, which is also in line with the image of middle-class American women who like to argue aggressively,
"How to be better, there should always be a standard,"
Han Zhifeng said with a smile.
His English is average, and to be honest, it's a little bad, but he dares to say that it's not a big deal, it's not normal for Americans to have bad English.
"Oh, we have a special bulletproof version of the suburban for sale, which can withstand the blow of 12.7mm bullets, and the power is strong, I think this is a good car that the rich choose first,"
The woman stood up quite majestic plump, and secretly used a small movement of beauty,
Han Zhifeng noticed her small movements and couldn't help but smile, at this time there was a pain in his arm, Kong Miao, who was holding his arm, smiled faintly, Han Zhifeng grinned,
"You won't be so hungry, will you?"
Kong Miao whispered Chinese, the smile on his face was very cold.
"This person is not my thing, mine is by my side,"
The pain in his arm was still the answer to him, Kong Miao's two fingers rotated again, but the smile on his face was much brighter.
'Let's go see this car,'
Han Zhifeng said.
'Please,'
The woman didn't see Han Zhifeng's intention at all, she was not disappointed, she didn't want anything to happen with Han Zhifeng, sending a little signal to show her beautiful figure is just for sales, since the other party is interested in the car,
"Neil, you stay here, I'm in charge of the guests,"
She turned her face and said coldly, and the freckled man shrank his neck and wilted.
The woman is disgusted that this person can't even keep the guests.,Is there no high-speed version to surrender?,Do you have to do your best to keep it?
She turned around and smiled and led Han Zhifeng and Kong Miao to the corner of the small parking lot in front of the store, where a dark green suburban was quietly parked.
"It's this specially modified car, the engine is a GM 6.0L engine, surrounded by steel plates and Kevlar composite armor, which can maintain the speed of the low-speed version of the suburban, but can protect against bullets, and we can provide an official report certificate from the tuning factory,"
The woman gestured to the car.
'I think you need to understand that we live here, we are very clear about all the consumption here, are you sure that this car can withstand the blow of a 12.7mm bullet, and don't end up being a consumer defendant and pay a fine of ten times the profit from the sale,'
Kong Miao smiled slightly.
The woman was stunned, she looked at Kong Miao and hesitated,
"Well, it can withstand all the all-round attacks of all automatic semi-automatic firearms of 7.62 caliber, and the steel plate protection can protect the blow of 12.7mm bullets, but the windows can't,"
Han Zhifeng came to a conclusion about this woman, she was very smart, she sensed something from him and Kong Miao, and immediately turned around,
'Is there anything else?'
Kong Miao still smiled reservedly, grasping the initiative of the dialogue,
"Well, the car's territory can't block the onslaught of heavy mines or explosives, it's actually a medium-protection bulletproof car,"
The woman reluctantly said everything.
"You're smart,"
Kong Miao made a brief comment, and Han Zhifeng saw for the first time in her the temperament of a decision-maker that she had cultivated for more than a year.
"I'm just telling the truth, being honest with my clients, and calling me Livcha,"
The woman smiled and said a name that was characteristic of Eastern Europe.
"Miss Livcha, can we try the car?"
Han Zhifeng asked with a smile, in his opinion, the use of a medium level of protection in the country is enough, and heavy firearms and mines can basically be eliminated in the country.
"Of course, you can wait,"
Livtsa turned and entered the store, and returned a moment later with the key fob,
'Do you test the car yourself, or do you test it yourself?'
Livtsa said.
"Why didn't you ask?"
Han Zhifeng Qidao,
Livette smiled and looked at Liu Hao and Zhou Gui not far behind the two, the reason why she was eyeing Han Zhifeng and the others was not because of what car the two bought, but because the bodyguards behind the two were distant away, and at first glance they were guests with the ability to pay, which was also the reason why she was very dissatisfied with Neil, her vision was too poor, she was really not a suitable salesperson, and she was dismissed after settling her salary this week.
'You're shrewd,'
Kong Miao glanced at her appreciatively,
'Do you have a business card, give me one?'
"Yes,"
Now the male Livcha is no longer interested, her attention remains on Kong Miao, this is the person in charge.
"Brother Zhou, you come to test the car,"
Han Zhifeng said.
Zhou Gui said yes and walked quickly, took the key from Livcha's hand, opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.
Han Zhifeng and Kong Miao sat in the back seat, and Livcha sat in the co-pilot's seat.
Zhou Gui started the hot car, Han Zhifeng looked at the decoration in the car, beige is the main color, leather seats, very clear leather taste, at least there is no trace of second-hand cars from the car.
Zhou Gui stepped on the accelerator and drove out, the car went out of the parking lot and merged into the traffic, the urban area of San Francisco is a hilly area, there are many uphill and downhill slopes, and frequent braking is required, which is very good for testing the performance of the car.
Han Zhifeng's feeling is that although this car is modified with armor steel plates and other weights, the power is no different from an ordinary SUV, which is good, of course, the premise is that those objects must be installed.
Under the guidance of Livcha, Zhou Gui turned around and returned to the parking lot, and after getting out of the car, Zhou Gui opened the front hood, checked it, and confirmed that it was indeed a new engine of 6.0.
Livcha took out the modification report of the vehicle at this time, and Kong Miao looked at it and said that there was no problem.
"How much does this car cost,"
Han Zhifeng asked.
"Four hundred and eighty thousand dollars,"
Livtsa said.
"It's too high, three hundred and fifty thousand dollars,"
Han Zhifeng knows that many goods in the United States are priced, and if the sales reward of the car is marked, if it is not, it will be symbolically rewarded, but this car is different, this is a modified car, and the price in it is very large.
"Impossible, a minimum of forty-fifty-five thousand dollars,"
Livtsa shook her head.
"The lowest price of $400,000,"
Han Zhifeng raised 50,000.
"$450,000 for this car is definitely the cost price,"
Livtsa didn't let go.
"Your car must have been ordered by someone else and finally given up, and the deposit is at least 100,000 US dollars if you guess correctly, so your 400,000 US dollars selling profit is also amazing,"
Is it possible to start a bulletproof car without a large deposit.
"Okay, I'll ask the boss,"
Livette thought for a moment, and she returned shortly after entering the store,
"Okay, it's only 400,000 yuan, but the procedures for this modified car are troublesome, you have to wait for a week to ten days, you pay a deposit of 50,000 US dollars, and then pick up the car ten days later,"
Liv Chadao,
Han Zhifeng smiled and nodded, waiting for ten days for a favorite car is really not a big deal.
Next, the three of them discussed the price of the three tohoeds, and Livcha planned to use the increase in free maintenance and discount fuel cards to promote, but after hearing that these cars had to be shipped to China, they immediately gave up.
In the end, Tony, the owner of the store, stepped forward and helped Han Zhifeng to consign the car at the cost of finally keeping the total price, and the three cars totaled 336,000 US dollars.
'Let's take one burgundy car first, and the other two will be sent to China together after the modified car is completed.'
Han Zhifeng said.
In the end, Kong Miao paid 220,000 dollars and took away a burgundy tahoe, leaving 100,000 dollars as a deposit for the other three cars.
'You use your ID to get this red car, which I bought for you,'
Han Zhifeng said.
Kong Miao was surprised, she understood Han Zhifeng's intention to say good.
"Xiao Feng, I have a BMW, I'm afraid I won't need this car, don't break the bank,"
Although her heart was sweet, Kong Miao still refused.
"It's okay to drive that car in Irvine City, but it's still not safe enough to get out of the city and on the highway, and your business will be busy in the future, at least Los Angeles is always coming, and if you want a good car, this is it, it's my New Year's gift to you."
Han Zhifeng snatched the document from Kong Miao's hand domineeringly and handed it to Livcha, Livcha looked at Kong Miao's happy expression with envy, Kong Miao at this time was extremely beautiful and attractive.
Leaving the car sales company, the four of them drove three cars, two hired Volvo and a Chevrolet Tafoe, they went to a Chinese supermarket in Chinatown to buy New Year's goods, the two discussed what to buy like a small couple living at home, the two went on a shopping spree, filled the two cars and returned with a full load.
