Chapter 846: Diamond Ring
"Mayor Xu, how about we go have breakfast now, and then go shopping?" Liang Wenjun proposed.
In the past two days since he came to Hong Kong, Xu Qingyuan has been completely attracted by the prosperity of Hong Kong, if he is not too busy with work, he really wants to stay here for a while and fully enjoy the prosperity of Hong Kong.
"Mr. Liang, where are we going today?"
"Go to Parklane Avenue."
"Parklane Boulevard?"
"Hehe, Park Lane is known as 'Hong Kong's Champs-ΓlysΓ©es'. Many people compare Hong Kong to a 'shopping paradise', and Park Lane Avenue is the 'shopping paradise' within this shopping paradise. This street is home to many internationally renowned shops. Mayor Xu, you haven't done much shopping since you came to Hong Kong, and you're going back soon, so you have to buy something to take home! β
Hearing Liang Wenjun say this, Xu Qingyuan was even more interested, and said with great interest: "Okay, then I'll go to Baili Avenue today." β
Berlin Avenue is located next to Nathan Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, the whole road is a two-storey white building, which is very special in the high-rise Tsim Sha Tsui district, in addition, Park Lane Avenue has the nickname of "Courtesy Path", because in the center of the avenue stands a statue with hands clasped and the theme of "Please", which is the most prominent sign of Park Lane Avenue.
If you come at night, the green shade of Park Lane Avenue will be full of flashing lights, which are very bright and beautiful, making Park Lane Avenue different from the elegance of the day, and changing the makeup and shining dazzling.
However, Xu Qingyuan was more fond of other entertainment activities at night, so he took Xu Qingyuan over to shop during the day.
Xu Qingyuan was very interested in these high-end stores, lingered in them, and bought a lot of things.
After a morning of strolling along Parklane Avenue, Liang Wenjun invited him to a big meal at a nearby high-end restaurant.
During the meal, Xu Qingyuan said: "Mr. Liang, I have long heard of the name of Hong Kong Chow Tai Fook, can we go to Chow Tai Fook in the afternoon?" β
Liang Wenjun said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, let's go to Chow Tai Fook after dinner." Chow Tai Fook mainly uses gold, jewelry and diamonds, supplemented by watches, Mayor Xu went to Chow Tai Fook, did he want to buy a watch for himself, or did he want to buy some jewelry for his wife to go back? β
"Well, hehe, I finally came to Hong Kong, so naturally I have to bring some things back to my wife." Xu Qingyuan said with a smile.
Xu Qingyuan's relationship with his wife has already broken down, so he won't bring jewelry back to his wife, in fact, Xu Qingyuan recently accepted a young and beautiful host from the city TV station as a lover, this little girl is like a little goblin, which makes Xu Qingyuan very satisfied.
Before coming to Hong Kong this time, this little girl also begged Xu Qingyuan, hoping to come to Hong Kong with him to open his eyes, but Xu Qingyuan came to Hong Kong with the political tasks assigned by the governor this time, and he didn't come to travel, so naturally he couldn't bring this little girl with him.
So, Xu Qingyuan promised her that when she went back, she would definitely bring her some gifts, which coaxed her down.
When shopping on Parklane Avenue this morning, Xu Qingyuan had already bought her a Hermes bag and a set of Chanel cosmetics, and then went to Chow Tai Fook to buy her a piece of jewelry.
After eating, Liang Wenjun took him straight to the Chow Tai Fook Gold Store on Queen's Road.
In Chow Tai Fook, Xu Qingyuan first looked at the gold jewelry, bought some necklaces, earrings and other small things, when he was about to buy a ring, Liang Wenjun said: "Mr. Xu, if you buy a ring for your wife, it is best to buy a diamond ring, isn't there such a saying: diamonds are eternal, and one will last forever." β
Xu Qingyuan smiled slightly and said, "Then look at the diamond ring." β
The service lady immediately took them to the diamond area and carefully introduced them to the diamond ring in fluent Mandarin.
Xu Qingyuan asked the service lady to take out a few favorite diamond rings and look at them, he picked up one of the nearly 3-carat diamond rings, carved into a "heart" shape and looked at it for a while, thinking in his heart that when he gave this diamond ring to the little anchor, how excited the little anchor would be, how excited, and then how hard he would serve himself, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but appear a smug smile, and asked, "Miss, how much is this diamond ring?" β
The service lady looked at the label and said, "Sir, this diamond ring costs 399,000 Hong Kong dollars." β
"Three hundred and ninety-nine thousand Hong Kong dollars? So expensive? β
"Sir, your vision is very good, the diamond of this diamond ring weighs 2.76 carats, it is an F-grade, VVS1, and the setting process is an excellent high-quality diamond, this price is really not too high! Last month, the price of this diamond was close to 430,000 Hong Kong dollars, and this month in order to cooperate with the return of Hong Kong to do activities, the price was lowered, so it is very suitable to buy now. β
Xu Qingyuan picked up the diamond ring again and looked at it seriously, then put the diamond ring on the flannel cloth and said to Liang Wenjun: "Mr. Liang, let's go around again." β
Liang Wenjun smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then turn around." β
Xu Qingyuan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw that Liang Wenjun didn't take the initiative to buy this diamond ring out of his pocket, but he didn't show anything on the surface.
What Xu Qingyuan didn't know was that Liang Wenjun had already arranged for an assistant to buy the diamond ring.
After a day of shopping, Xu Qingyuan gained a lot, and large and small handbags filled the entire trunk.
After shopping, Liang Wenjun invited Xu Qingyuan to afternoon tea in a high-end restaurant, and Liang Wenjun also let his people go out first, Xu Qingyuan understood that Liang Wenjun must have something to talk to him, so he also let Tian Hang and them go out.
After retiring from others, Liang Wenjun took out a delicate small box printed with the words "Chow Tai Fook Jewelry" from his handbag, put it in front of Xu Qingyuan, and said with a smile: "Mayor Xu, I will give you a small gift, it is not a tribute." β
When Xu Qingyuan saw this small box, he had already guessed what was inside, but he deliberately asked curiously: "Mr. Liang, what is in this?" β
Liang Wenjun said: "Mayor Xu, it's better for you to open it and take a look yourself." β
Xu Qingyuan opened the small box, and inside it was indeed the heart-shaped diamond ring he had taken a fancy to.
"Ah, Mr. Liang, what do you mean by this?" Xu Qingyuan pretended to be surprised and said.
"Hehe, Mayor Xu, you see that you like this diamond ring very much, this is the blessing of this diamond ring, so I asked my assistant to buy this diamond ring and give it to Mayor Xu as a gift for this trip to Hong Kong."
"Oh, Mr. Liang, you are so polite! This diamond ring is expensive, you are too expensive! β
"Hehe, Mayor Xu, you're welcome. After a few days of contact, you must have seen that I, Liang, have always put the friendship of friends first. Money is something outside of my body, and I don't care at all. As long as you can make a true friend, what is the point of spending money? β
"What Mr. Liang said is that I have already seen that Mr. Liang is a person with deep affection! It's just that I have been in Hong Kong for a few days, so Mr. Liang has spent too much, and now I am given such a valuable diamond ring, I am really a little sorry! β
Although Xu Qingyuan said this, he was very satisfied in his heart. Because when he came out of Chow Tai Fook, he didn't see Liang Wenjun have any action to buy this diamond ring and give it to him, Xu Qingyuan was also very disappointed, thinking that Liang Wenjun would not do anything.
But now, Liang Wenjun suddenly put this diamond ring in front of him again, Xu Qingyuan's original disappointment immediately got several times the feedback, which made his impression of Liang Wenjun instantly enhanced many times, and felt that Liang Wenjun was very good at doing things, very careful, and generous, willing to spend money, and was a person who could have good contact.
In fact, since Xu Qingyuan became the mayor of Changcheng and held a lot of administrative power in his hands, he began to deliberately find a white glove for himself, after all, the cost of direct corruption and bribery is too high, if you can have a suitable white glove to help you make money, you can also launder this money, this is the right way!
At present, Xu Qingyuan also has two white gloves, one "official" and one "informal", of which the "formal" white glove is a distant cousin of Xu Qingyuan, who mainly takes care of some business in the provincial capital for Xu Qingyuan, and the "unofficial" white glove is Qin Weizhe.
The reason why Qin Weizhe is his "unofficial" white glove is because Xu Qingyuan already has the idea of letting Qin Weizhe make white gloves for himself, but so far, Qin Weizhe has not done any decent business, nor has it brought him any profits, at most it is in the "apprenticeship" of white gloves, so he is "informal"!
And now, Xu Qingyuan suddenly fell in love with Liang Wenjun!
Although Xu Qingyuan also knows that with Liang Wenjun's net worth, he probably won't make white gloves for himself, but Liang Wenjun is very shrewd, very good at doing things, and so generous, and Liang Wenjun has a wide range of contacts and a lot of business, especially with overseas business channels, so he can let his "white gloves" do business with Liang Wenjun in the future, ensuring that it is both safe and can make money for both parties, which is definitely a win-win effect!
After thinking about it like this, Xu Qingyuan's attitude towards Liang Wenjun took a big turn!
Before, he just wanted to do the business of acquiring Changjia Electric Appliances with Liang Wenjun as soon as possible, so that he could release himself from this huge pressure as soon as possible, so his previous positioning of Liang Wenjun was just a business partner for a single business!
But now, his positioning of Liang Wenjun has become a long-term benefit sharer!
