444. Gifts
"Uncle, have you moved the entire cosmetics counter back?" Looking at the three large boxes of cosmetics in the living room, Zheng Xiuyan said in surprise.
"There was something wrong with the ones I bought before, but you didn't use the rest very well, so I bought more. But don't worry, I have consulted professionals in advance this time, these three sets of cosmetics are for you, for your aunt, and for small crystals, each focusing on different content, in addition to your set, the cosmetics for aunt and small crystal are the kind of skin that can be used universally. Although the functionality of your specially built set is not as good as that, it is also much better than those cosmetics that can be bought in the Korean market. "Because I had no experience when I bought cosmetics for the little girl for the first time, most of the things that the director bought that time did not match Zheng Xiuyan's skin condition, so this time, Lee Jun-hyuk learned a lot.
"Really? I'll take a look first, and the province will be in the same situation as last time. Zheng Xiuyan also knows that Lee Jun Hyuk doesn't know anything about things like cosmetics, so in order to avoid the embarrassment of making mistakes at that time, she feels that it is necessary to check it in advance.
"Let's see." This time, Lee Jun-hyuk is full of confidence.
"Wow! Uncle, there are so many things here, and the brands of things for different purposes are not the same, I remember that there are several brands that are not sold in Korea, uncle, how did you get such a powerful cosmetics? ”
opened each box and looked at it, but the contents of the box surprised her, in Zheng Xiuyan's opinion. As long as Lee Jun Hyuk doesn't choose those sky-high brand sets without considering skin problems this time like last time, it would be good. But after opening it, she found out. The cosmetics in each box are very scientifically matched. Not only that, but the cosmetics with different uses in each box are also made with different brands.
Although Zheng Xiuyan is not an expert in makeup now, because she likes this kind of thing more, she often asked and communicated with makeup artists about these problems during the event, and she learned that in fact, not all of these high-grade cosmetics are best if they use one brand, and people who really understand this will mix and match many brands. Because different brands, its skin care products will also have different effects, if you can deeply understand the individual's skin type, this "mix and match" use is the most scientific.
"I've been in the U.S. for two years, and I've been working with Beyoncé some time ago, so it's not too difficult to ask her to buy some cosmetics for me. By the way, although the position of private makeup artist does not sound like much. But her makeup artist seems to be a beauty expert in the United States, and she is very good in the makeup industry anyway. Seeing Zheng Xiuyan's surprised appearance, Lee Jun-hyuk introduced with a little satisfaction.
"Beyoncé's makeup artist, beauty expert, uncle, then why do you know such a powerful person, you bought such an expensive set of cosmetics last time." Seeing Lee Jun-hyuk's proud appearance, Jung so-yeon couldn't help but laugh and ridiculed.
"Didn't I know, I thought this thing was the same as clothes, since selling sets is to buy them in sets, who knew there were so many things to say here." After hearing Zheng Xiuyan's words, Lee Jun-hyuk, who was full of pride a moment ago, suddenly lost all his momentum and weakly defended.
"Poof, uncle, you're so much fun today, if only you did it every day." Usually when the two of them are together, Zheng Xiuyan's ridicule has never worked, there is no way, whether it is in terms of eloquence or vision, Lee Jun-hyuk is much higher than Zheng Xiu-yeon, but today is different, on the one hand, Lee Jun-hyuk is still thinking about meeting his parents for a while, on the other hand, Lee Jun-hyuk really doesn't know anything about cosmetics, so he was made like this by Zheng Xiuyan's small ridicule.
"Alright, uncle, let's take a look at the gift for Dad." ridicule is ridicule, Zheng Xiuyan has not forgotten the business.
"Compared with the gifts for my aunt and Xiujing, the ones for my uncle are simpler, and I know from you that my uncle prefers to drink whisky, and it just so happens that the UK where I grew up also has a well-known international whisky brand 'Johnnie Walker'. So I got two decent bottles of whiskey from Old Harvin. ”
Indeed, as Lee Jun Hyuk said, these two bottles of wine are a lot simpler than the three boxes of cosmetics, but when it comes to value, these two bottles of wine are actually the most expensive of these gifts.
Unlike red wines, which have been hyped to sky-high prices, although they are also internationally renowned, the "Johnnie Walker" brand of whisky seems to be much more accessible to the people, and almost everyone who likes whisky has drunk "Johnnie Walker", which is the so-called "Rubik's Cube" series of whisky.
But as the only whisky supplier to the British royal family for decades, "Johnnie Walker" will actually produce some high-end liquor worth collecting, among which the "Blue Label" and "Platinum 18 Years" series are the best whisky varieties, which are all priceless whisky, which can be encountered but not sought.
And Lee Jun-hyuk prepared two bottles of wine this time, one of which is this rare but unsought-after "blue label" whisky. The other bottle is more precious than the "Blue Label", or even rarer, "Johnnie Walker Crypto Friends Limited Whisky". Compared with the "blue label" in front, this bottle of "close friend limited" is really available but not sought, after all, the blue label is still in the range of sales, in other words, you really want it, you can buy it anywhere, but the price is higher, but this "close friend limited" is different, this is Johnnie Walker's master bartender Jimbeverage's own whiskey, this wine will never be sold to the outside world, only sincerely given to Johnnie Walker's brand close friends limited wine.
"With such a powerful wine, Old Harvin must be distressed." After curiously inquiring about the origin of these two wines, Zheng Xiuyan remembered the cheerful old Harvin before, and the distressed look of the old Harvin suddenly appeared in her mind, so she said with a smile.
"Fortunately, if you have a blue card, you can still buy it in the UK, but it is difficult to get that close friend, I remember when he got this bottle of wine, it was really exciting, and when he met an acquaintance, he had to show off. If he hadn't become a supplier of royal black tea this time, and had gotten another bottle through the relationship, I wouldn't have been able to get any of this bottle of wine. ”
In order to get these two bottles, Li Junhe actually took a lot of effort, in the past, he could still use the royal family's black tea to tempt Lao Harvin, but in recent years, due to the impact of the economic crisis, Lao Harvin took advantage of the situation to buy the tea house that supplied the royal family before, and got the roasting method, and the black tea he drinks every day now is better than the royal family's, and the result is that he always takes black tea to tempt Li Junhyuk.
"Such a good wine. Dad must be reluctant to drink it. Although Zheng Xiuyan's family is not a wealthy family, it also has some assets, so as a hobby, Zheng's father still has a lot of wine in his collection.
"These are high-quality wines, which are inherently collectible. Whether it is a blue card or a close friend limit, in fact, the significance of collection is greater than the meaning of tasting. Although Lee Jun Hyuk doesn't drink alcohol, his understanding of these drinks is obviously better than his previous understanding of cosmetics.
"Uncle, you really put a lot of thought into it this time." After seeing the gifts, Zheng Xiuyan said with emotion. She is right, whether the gift is expensive or not is secondary, and the most important thing is that Lee Junhyuk prepared it very carefully. Whether it's cosmetics or whiskey, every gift is full of Lee Jun-hyuk's attention to this meeting with his parents.
"Alright, everything is ready, and the time is almost up. Let's go. Hearing Jung so-yeon's emotion, Lee Jun-hyuk smiled slightly. Finally, the time to meet the parents is approaching. (To be continued......)
