Chapter 524: Wonderful Thoughts
New York's Fifth Avenue is a paradise for many so-called fashionistas.
It is said that all the world's famous brand stores can be found here, and it is said that you can find all the goods you can think of here, and it is said to be one of the most expensive commercial areas in the world, with annual rents of more than $10,000 per square meterγγγγγγ
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Tian Lu.
As a "fashion idiot" who has been taking care of all the clothes since he was in college, and has continued until now, although Tian Lu will also stink in front of the mirror when he wears his favorite clothes, but if he is expected to spend his time on this, the probability should not be much greater than whether he will not win the Nobel Prize in the future.
After getting out of the taxi, the brothers went straight to the perfume shop that Ye Lan had mentioned.
Went into this house called Elizabeth. After Arden's store, Tian Lu found out that the store not only sold perfumes, but also a variety of cosmetics, which were dazzling and dizzying, even if the two quickly found the perfume section, but the dozens of choices made them immediately dumbfounded.
Men who have accompanied women to the cosmetics counter know that in the eyes of women, there are categories and layered products, and in the eyes of men, it is basically impossible to distinguish their differences, and it only took a minute for Tian Lu to know that if he found that kind of perfume on his own, I am afraid it would take a long time, so he decisively found a sales consultant and handed over a piece of paper: "Hello, we need to buy these goods, can you please help you get them?"
"Of course. Happy to serve you, sir!"
The sales consultant in his forties immediately understood the situation Tian Lu was facing, smiled knowingly and nodded, and immediately ran over to the house, and within two minutes all the things listed on the list were ready.
"Thank you so much!"
didn't even have to check if the things he took were right, Tian Lu smiled very gratefully: "It's really a great favor for me, thank you, then please check out!"
"Huh?"
Just as Tian Lu was about to get the card, his younger brother Tian Yong behind him suddenly sighed and exclaimed in surprise: "Brother." You see. That's not the oneγγγγγγ By the way, Wang Zhiyun?"
"Wang Zhiyun, it can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Tian Lu was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned around and looked in the direction that Tian Yong was pointing.
Really!
After a serious look. Tian Lu suddenly discovered. The young man standing with a young girl. Isn't it Wang Zhiyun who saved Tian Yue and Tian Yong in New York last year!
Although Tian Lu is not very interested in this prince, he is his own life-saving benefactor after all, and since he has met him, it is not good to pretend that he has not seen it. So he hurriedly took Tian Yong forward and said with a polite smile: "Mr. Wang, what a coincidence, let's meet again!"
"Huh?"
Hearing someone greet him, Wang Zhiyun was startled, and quickly withdrew his gaze from a bottle of cosmetics to take a look, and immediately smiled: "It turned out to be Professor Tian, hehe, it's really a coincidence, I only come to New York two or three times a year, and I actually ran into you again!"
After the two sides finished greeting, it was natural that they should introduce their respective companions. Needless to say, when Wang Zhiyun subconsciously wanted to introduce his female companion, he finally thought of something in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help flashing a trace of embarrassment.
Anyway, he chased Tian Yue last year.
But this girl is his girlfriend after all, Wang Zhiyun can only smile and introduce: "Professor Tian, this is my girlfriend Han Jia, Jiajia, this is Mr. Tian Lu, a medical professor at Beijing Normal University in the mainland!"
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
After Wang Zhiyun finished introducing him, Tian Lu shook hands with a smile with the woman named Han Jia. Of course, while shaking hands, Tian Lu also quickly looked at the other party, and subconsciously compared with his sister Tian Yue.
Han Jia's first impression of Tian Lu was very beautiful, and whether it was the smile on her face or her personal demeanor, this girl performed quite well, it seemed that she was the same as Wang Zhiyun, she should be from an extraordinary background. It's just that compared with the youthful and lively Tian Yue, Han Jia is a little less beautiful and simple, and more deep and mature.
"It's still Satsuki cute. β
God knows what kind of psychology it was, Tian Lu quickly came to a conclusion, and then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart!
"Professor Tian, are you still lecturing in New York this time?"
After introducing the two sides, Wang Zhiyun asked with a smile. After speaking, as if he was afraid that his girlfriend would not understand, he turned his head and explained: "Jiajia, Professor Tian is a world-renowned medical expert, and he is also an honorary professor of our alma mater, and he is also quite prestigious in the American medical community!"
"Huh?"
After listening to Wang Zhiyun's explanation, Han Jia also seemed to be taken aback, and couldn't help but look carefully at the professor from the mainland in front of him. In her opinion, although Tian Lu is slightly older than herself, he is definitely not much older, that is, he is in his thirties, and he is already an honorary professor of his alma mater!
That's a lot of tightness!
Although chatting with the two, Tian Lu was still thinking about the perfume that the sales consultant had prepared just now, so he hesitated for a moment and said with a smile: "Two, it's almost noon, wait a minute, if you don't have anything to do, let's have a meal together!"
"This γγγγγγ β
Wang Zhiyun also hesitated for a moment and turned his head to look at Han Jia. Han Jia smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Of course this is good, in fact, I have always been very interested in medicine, and I can't ask Professor Tian for leave when I have the opportunity!"
The voice is soft and weak, with the tone that is unique to the girls of Treasure Island.
After making an appointment to have lunch together, Tian Lu didn't say anything more, turned back to the sales consultant just now and smiled: "I'm sorry, now we can check out!"
"Yes sir. β
The sales consultant didn't wait and was impatient, nodded and smiled, "The total price of your purchase is $2,460." Would you like to use it in cash or by card?"
"More than two thousand?"
Tian Lu was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes immediately involuntarily drifted to the location of the pile of perfumes.
It's just a dozen bottles of perfume, and it costs more than 2,000 dollars? That is to say, each bottle is almost 200 fast, which makes Tian Lu a little unacceptable for a while.
Although Tian Lu doesn't know much about this situation, but this price is too expensive, right?
"Actually, it's not that expensive. β
At this moment, Han Jia walked over and explained with a smile: "I took a look, Professor Tian bought all the better products in this store, and a few bottles are still new products that have just been released, and it is normal to be a little expensive." β
"Ughγγγγγγ β
Smiled a little awkwardly. Tian Lu hurriedly handed the card to the sales consultant. Then he shook his head and sighed: "I really don't understand this, these things are also given by my wife and sister, I really didn't expect it to be so expensiveγγγγγγ It's almost top of some expensive medicines and surgical consumables!"
In Tian Lu's view, medical supplies are used to save lives. And there are also extremely high R&D costs. The more expensive ones are acceptable. But that's just a dozen bottles, well, a dozen small bottles of perfume to be exact. The function is nothing more than to exude fragrance, and it can be sold at this price, which is really γγγγγγ
Thinking like this in his heart, Tian Lu's face was full of incomprehension, and he didn't know what he would think of him saying these words in this store!
Han Jia's eyes flowed, and she forced a smile and said, "Hehe, this is everyone's consumption concept is different, at least in the eyes of a woman like me, and of course your wife and sister, it's worth spending all this money, isn't it?"
"Yes. β
Just pondered for a while, Tian Lu nodded with a smile, and said calmly: "Maybe it's just that the concept is different, but I still think these things are too expensive, just some artificially made chemical products, and their value is just because of their own volatilization and stimulation of people's olfactory nerves, if a bottle costs more than a hundred dollarsγγγγγγ Anyway, I personally don't think it's worth it!"
"Poof!"
After listening to Tian Lu's interesting explanation, Han Jia finally couldn't bear it anymore, covered her mouth and laughed lowly.
The girlfriend was a little rude, but Wang Zhiyun could only smile apologetically at Tian Lu, but secretly shook his head in his heart. Unlike Han Jia, he had deliberately checked Tian Lu's information, and knew that this seemingly ordinary university professor was worth a lot of money, and he was definitely a rich man! But because of this mere more than 2,000 US dollars, he really couldn't help but wonder if the news he got was correct!
Han Jia quickly suppressed her laughter, although she also knew that she was a little rude, but she still shook her head and said, "Professor Tian, I think you have some misunderstandings about fashion products. Although it is true that perfumes are artificially manufactured chemical products as you say, I can assure you that these chemical products are also painstakingly researched by the R&D departments of major companies, and a successful product is not necessarily less difficult to develop than a drug!"
When talking about these things, Han Jia's expression, which had always been soft, suddenly became serious.
Afraid that Tian Lu would misunderstand, Wang Zhiyun hurriedly explained: "Professor Tian, Jiajia's father is the chairman of a cosmetics company in our treasure island, and she is now also helping to take care of the company, so she is more sensitive to these things. Hehe, in fact, we came to Fifth Avenue this time because she wanted to inspect the market and buy some of the latest products from major companies. β
"Oh, I see!"
Tian Lu suddenly realized, and hurriedly nodded apologetically at Han Jia. Although he secretly disagrees, he can have different opinions, but he still has to respect other people's ideas, which has always been his code of conduct.
Soon, the sales consultant took care of everything, and Tian Lu also got the spoils of the trip after signing the papers. Compared to the overwhelm after he came in, Han Jia was obviously an expert, and he picked out the things he wanted in just a few minutes, a full forty or fifty bottles of perfume and various cosmetics, and the price was twice as high as Tian Lu when he checked out!
Looking at Han Jia and Wang Zhiyun's natural and indifferent looks when they swiped the card to pay the bill, Tian Lu secretly had a toothache at the same time, and a wonderful thought suddenly flashed in his heart, an idea he had never hadγγγγγγ (To be continued.) )
