Section 1278 Choosing a gift 2
Before Li Jingyuan could explain clearly, Jessica had already settled the account and came back. Seeing this situation, Li Jingyuan had no choice but to suspend negotiations with the waiter and put aside the matter of customizing the watch for the first time.
Before the words were finished, the order was naturally not placed. However, this is nothing, at most it can't be done today. In a few days, if you take some time, you can still carry Jessica over again, it's just a little more troublesome.
In fact, for Li Jingyuan, as long as he can get the custom-made watch before April 18, it will be fine. He had already planned to give it as a birthday present to Jessica this year, on Jessica's first birthday after her engagement.
threw an embarrassed look at the waiter who had been listening carefully to him, and then quickly said softly: "I'll find time to come back, please don't tell her." After the waiter looked at Jessica who was walking in the distance and showed a clear look, Li Jingyuan turned around and greeted Jessica.
Holding the payment slip that had just been signed, Jessica pulled Li Jingyuan back to the counter with an excited face, according to the rules of the mall, at this time, the two couple watches were really bought and could be handed over to Jessica.
"OPPA, are we going to pack them up?" The watch is packed in a delicate box, just looking at the appearance of the box, it is actually beautiful enough, and there is nothing wrong with just sending it away. But. In order to make Seo Hyun have enough surprise after receiving the gift, Jessica still wants to add some other packaging to the outside of the box, at least not to let people see what the gift inside is through the logo on the box at a glance.
"Yes. It's ...... that should be packaged. Touching his nose with his right hand, Li Jingyuan suddenly thought of a good idea, and after a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he said to Jessica with a mysterious face: "I have an idea, I'll tell you when I go to the supermarket later." β
"Huh?" Because of Li Jingyuan's sale, Jessica couldn't help but feel very curious. However, when she saw Li Jingyuan's expression. Even if he continues to ask questions now, he still can't get an answer. It's a casual personality, so Jessica didn't continue to ask. Instead, he changed his mood, put his curiosity in his heart for the time being, and walked around the duty-free shop with Li Jingyuan again.
A pair of watches as a gift is already a lot of money. So. The next purchase. It's not for 'sweet potato CP', but for Li Jingyuan and Jessica herself.
Jessica is so active when she buys things and gives them away, and now she wants to consume them for herself, and Jessica's interest is even higher. After shopping for nearly an hour, she chose some perfumes, cosmetics and other common necessities for herself at Li Jingyuan's suggestion, as well as a pair of shoes, a skirt and a bag that she had wanted before.
Of course. When picking things for himself, he didn't forget to choose some for Li Jingyuan. Because the status has been promoted from 'girlfriend' to 'fiancΓ©e'. Jessica unconsciously paid more attention to Li Jingyuan, although it was not as good as the perfect wives in the TV series who would make dinner first when her husband got off work and wait, and say 'You have worked hard' when greeting her, but she is really working in that direction.
Considering that Li Jingyuan usually prefers a relaxed feeling, Jessica chose a set of casual clothes for him that looks handsome and comfortable to wear; In order to make Lee Kyung-won look more attractive when participating in certain shows, Jessica chose a well-fitting suit for him, and matched it with matching ties, belts and other accessories; She wanted to choose a bottle of men's perfume for Li Jingyuan, and considering that he would be allergic to some chemical formulas (Li Jingyuan is allergic to nail polish, mentioned before), so she deliberately chose a more expensive perfume with an all-natural medicine formula.
I was very careful when I chose things, and I was very generous when I paid the bills. Although the things she chose for herself were all paid by Li Jingyuan, Jessica chose to swipe the card for Li Jingyuan.
Clothes, hats, shoes and other things, Jessica has already bought a lot of things for Li Jingyuan. However, most of the time, if she wants to buy something for Li Jingyuan, Jessica often deliberately chooses to buy with other girls from Girls' Generation when Li Jingyuan is not around.
Only a few times did Li Jingyuan follow Jessica's side. And those times, because of Li Jingyuan's attitude, Jessica didn't really spend much.
This time, after checking out, Li Jingyuan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that his outfit added up to almost 5 million won. For Lee Kyung-won himself, the five million won is nothing, but for Jessica, whose economic ability is far inferior to herself, five million is definitely a big number. Seeing that Jessica didn't frown, but looked happy, it would be a lie to say that Li Jingyuan was not moved in his heart.
"Su-yeon......."
"Hey, OPPA, don't underestimate me." Seeing Li Jingyuan's thoughts, Jessica didn't let him finish, wrinkled her little nose and smiled at him, then put on a bold posture and said: "Speaking of which, I'm a little rich woman now, it's no problem to buy you something~." β
When it comes to economic strength, compared to the situation at that time, with Li Jingyuan's intervention, the current girlhood is much richer.
Although the intensity of the itinerary has decreased, the quality of the trips that the girls of Girls' Generation are now participating in has improved a lot. The production budget of a good program will be more, and the remuneration will naturally be more generous, and participating in such a high-paying and high-quality itinerary can often be worth several fragmentary itineraries that are not of sufficient grade.
And in addition to the itinerary. That is, in addition to the income from commercial performances, in the area of advertising, the girls have received more income than in history. Let's take the simplest example. Because the image does not match, the girls of Girls' Generation have not received advertisements related to real estate in their original history. And in this life, there is one more Li Jingyuan, and the real estate company under his command directly chose Girls' Generation as an advertising model without informing him.
At the beginning, it was just to please Li Jingyuan, the big boss. After all, Girls' Generation, who had just debuted, didn't have much financial strength, so they were invited to advertise. When it comes to advertising words related to buying a house, it is inevitably a little inappropriate. However, what is surprising is that after the ad actually aired. The response was very good.
Well, it's a crooked hit. The commercial starring in Girls' Generation, the lines in it are not the point, more people are interested in real estate after seeing the actions of the girls.
One comes. There are nine people in Girls' Generation. Being able to keep so many people in one apartment without looking cramped is in itself a testament to the space inside the apartment.
Second, it's the so-called atmosphere. What's the key to real estate advertising? The most important thing is the idea. Either to highlight the warmth of the home, or to focus on health or convenience, anyway, there is always a central concept to stimulate the consumer. And the girls of Girls' Generation, by virtue of their nature, show enough liveliness and happiness in the advertisement. After seeing their advertisements, many people subconsciously thought that they would be happy to live there.
Anyway. Anyway, the effect of the ad is quite good. Seeing this situation, the person in charge of the real estate company simply raised the contracts of the girls, so that they are not just advertising models, but have really become the spokespersons of the real estate.
Because of the income from advertising and endorsements, needless to say, the amount of money that girls can save by virtue of the endorsement when they want to buy a house for their families is exaggerated enough. If the selling price of a house is about 300 million, and the members of Girls' Generation can get a 60% discount by virtue of their spokesperson status, then the money saved is enough to be more than 100 million.
Of course, in addition to real estate, the number of other types of advertisements received by girls in Girls' Generation is not a few. In addition, the sharing method of the S.m company has changed because of Li Jingyuan's leadership, and the money distributed to the girls is even more.
All kinds of income are added together, although it is not as exaggerated as a news report saying that Yun'er earned 4 billion yuan in the first half of the year, but on average, there is no problem for girls to get more than 1 billion in a year.
Although I didn't seriously calculate the accounts for the girls before, I have always stayed by the girls' side and have an understanding of their income status. After hearing Jessica's self-proclaimed 'little rich woman', Li Jingyuan only changed his mind a little, and he had to admit that it was indeed right.
"Hehe, I said, little rich woman, what do you think of me? Why don't you take care of me? Looking at Jessica's expression, the surprise in Li Jingyuan's heart because of the five million expenses finally disappeared, and was replaced by the desire to joke and tease this girl. Pretending to have an expression of a little white face eating soft rice, Li Jingyuan leaned in front of Jessica and asked in a low voice.
"Huh?" Hearing Li Jingyuan's words at first glance, Jessica was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but show a big smile. She also pretended to be up, first threw a suspicious look at Li Jingyuan, and then reached out to pinch Li Jingyuan's arm, and said in the tone of picking cabbage in the market: "Look at your face, well, it's not bad, it's okay to be tall, but I don't know if there is just a shelf in Ludao, come, let the rich woman touch your muscles~, if it's strong, the rich woman will accept you~!" β
"Ahem~~!" Originally, I just wanted to tease Jessica, but I didn't expect Jessica to say something very exciting beyond her expectations, and Li Jingyuan was surprised and choked on his own saliva. After coughing for a while, he couldn't help but complain: "I'll go, when did you become so arrogant?" Also muscle? What do you want to do? Fortunately, you came out one step earlier, and you are not afraid of being heard by the cashier? β
Psychologically speaking, the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment brought by consumption behavior will form a kind of stimulation for the human brain. This creates a sense of pleasure and excitement. It is precisely for this reason that there is the emergence of the kind of 'shopaholic' who buys just for the sake of 'buying'.
Counting the couple's table for 'Sweet Potato CP', Jessica's spending in the duty-free shop this time is about 6 million or nearly 7 million. Usually, in addition to buying some things for Li Jingyuan, it will cost money. At other times, there is basically no need to spend money, so this sudden high consumption makes Jessica's little head a little excited.
If it weren't for the excitement, how could Jessica, who has always been shy, say such fierce words?
"Hmm~~." After being complained about by Li Jingyuan, Jessica finally reacted. Thinking about what she had just said, her little face suddenly turned red. The little hand unconsciously covered his face, and his mouth let out an inexplicable muffled sound.
Just like the scenes that often appear in cartoons, after seeing Jessica's cartoon reaction. Li Jingyuan, who was already very good, was in a happier mood.
While humming a little song, I drove Jessica to the scene, and it didn't take a while, maybe four or five minutes. The two of them came to the door of Lotte Mart Jamsil, the largest supermarket in Korea.
βOPPAγ Now it's time for you to say it, right? As soon as she got out of the car, maybe to hide her shyness that had not subsided, or maybe she really wanted to know the answer, Jessica used a little force on the hand holding Li Jingyuan's arm, pulled him and asked.
"What?"
"What's that~! Just now I said that I want to get the packaging, didn't you say that you have an idea? β
"Oh, I remembered. Let's go~! β
"Hey, you haven't said it yet~."
"When you get to the place, you will know the way."
Just said that. While walking, not for a while. Li Jingyuan took Jessica to the home appliances. Looking at the various microwave ovens and ovens arranged in rows in front of her, the already puzzled expression on Jessica's face became even more confused.
"OPPA, what are you doing here? Do you want to give them a microwave? β
"It's not a microwave, it's an oven. There's no mistake about that. Patting Jessica's little hand to make her feel less restless, Li Jingyuan explained with a smile: "Although the usage is similar, there are still many differences in the working principles of the two. Microwave ovens use microwaves to heat the ingredients from the inside out, while ovens are more traditional, using heated pipes to heat food from the outside in. β
"Isn't there always someone on the Internet who says that something made in the microwave oven is unpalatable? You also know Xu Xian's character, and if you make something in the microwave, you will definitely get her evaluation of 'if you eat too much, you will die'. I don't want to give a gift, and I will be talked about behind the back by that girl. The oven is different, although the heating method is more traditional, and the food takes longer to cook, but in the end it is still healthier, and it is no problem to send this, and it will definitely not be talked about by the old man. β
"OPPA, you know so much." Listening to Li Jingyuan's words, Jessica first nodded with an admiring expression, but the next second, she changed to an impatient tone and asked, "However, what I want to ask is, why do you want to give this thing to the old man?" β
"Roasted sweet potatoes, you don't know how much that girl likes to eat sweet potatoes." After spreading his hands, Li Jingyuan finally gave an answer: "Instead of giving her other things, it is better to send a bag of sweet potatoes and this oven, so that she can eat at home by herself." I guess she's happier than anything she receives. β
"Besides, the oven can do other things. For example, grilled lamb chops, grilled pizza, grilled chicken wings and the like, with some red wine, isn't it a good Western meal? The two of us are old husbands and wives, and they are different, so I sent such a thing to let the two of them have a candlelight dinner at home to add a little mood. β
"And, most importantly, you can hide the gifts you buy inside. Do you think, let's wait a while and buy a bag of sweet potatoes and bring them over, can you resist not baking them? Even if she can hold back, Xiuying and a few of them foodies will definitely let the old man bake a few to try first, right? When the old man washed the sweet potatoes and was ready to put them in the oven, he opened the door of the oven and saw the box you put inside. β
"Eun, Eun, I'm sure I'll be scared a lot~~~ jump~!" While listening to Li Jingyuan's description, while also thinking about it in her mind, Jessica quickly imagined Xu Xian's surprised expression, and couldn't help but show excited eyes.
However, excitement is excitement, Jessica still couldn't help but ask: "OPPA, do you think the old man won't even look at the inside, just plug in the oven first, and try to see if it works?" If that's the case, won't the watch burn out if you put it inside? β
"......, probably not~." (To be continued......)
