After talking about business, Lu Xudong mentioned his wish: "Xiao Zhong, do you know that kind of 'official translation' Patek Philippe watches are sold here?" ”

"'Official translation' of Patek Philippe watches?" Zhong Baileng reacted after a pause, it turned out that the other party was worried about the scene when Director Fu Chongshan bought a half-price Lycra camera today, and shook his head with a smile and said, "This is not there." A watch is not the same as a camera, it is an item that is used close to the body, and Swiss watches have always been known for precision and hand-perfect craftsmanship. At least I haven't heard of it. ”

"That's it......" Lu Xudong was obviously a little disappointed when he heard it, and said with a wry smile: "I have always wanted to buy a Patek Philippe watch worth 500 Swiss francs and give it to my father-in-law, but neither the money in my hand nor the foreign exchange we have left is probably not enough......"

Zhong Bai naturally knew what it meant for the leader to talk to you about doing him a favor personally.

This means that he really starts to see you as his own, at least one-on-one.

This is not an excessive request, to be honest, in this era when he may only come to Switzerland once in his life, Zhong Bai does not think that Lu Xudong's request is beyond the principle.

People have their own savings and needs, and they want to buy a favorite product at a cheaper price, which is not against the principles of the organization, but also human nature.

However, it is obviously impossible for this "official translation" of the watch, and Zhong Bai happened to recall the incident of the young girl Hisker he met at the "Snow Mountain and Lake" bar in Geneva two days ago.

Didn't the other party say that his father was a watchmaker?

Perhaps, asking Heath to see if you can get in touch to buy a good watch at a cheaper price, this may be an option?

Thinking of this, Zhong Bai cleared his throat and said to Lu Xudong: "Uh, Director Lu, do you have to ask for the Patek Philippe brand?" What other handmade watches do? I mean the same grade. ”

"Of course you can!" As soon as Lu Xudong heard that there was a play, he immediately came to his senses: "But isn't the most famous Patek Philippe?" Are there any other brands? ”

Hehe, there are more famous watches in Switzerland, of course, in this era, Lu Xudong may have only heard of Patek Philippe, after all, this is the world's No. 1 watch brand, which is not to blame him, so Zhong Bai explained: "Well, there are many famous watch brands in Switzerland, in addition to Patek Philippe, there are Rolex, Blancpain, Vacheron Constantin, Audemars Piguet ......and so on."

"So much? Can you buy any of these others? Lu Xudong began to rekindle hope.

Zhong Bai didn't say anything: "This is not necessarily, but there is still one day tomorrow, if Director Lu really needs it, I will go out alone to help you inquire, is it okay?" ”

What's this kid's whimsical idea? Lu Xudong subconsciously reacted: "So you are asking for leave alone with me again?" ”

"I hope to complete the tasks assigned by the leader." Zhong Bai smiled generously, revealing his white and neat teeth, looking very innocent.

"Okay, then you will act alone tomorrow, the basic principles and discipline must be maintained, don't make any mess for me." Lu Xudong also laughed, after all, he was helping himself with personal affairs: "It's not too early, you should go back and rest early." ”

……

The day before leaving Switzerland, Zhong Bai was missing from the shopping team, but everyone tacitly didn't ask.

Because Director Lu didn't say anything, let's go and ask him what he is doing?

Naturally, Zhong Bai took a taxi from the hotel early in the morning to the Villa La Gavotte in the southwest of downtown Geneva, which is exactly where Hicks left him the address last time.

"The red ...... in the third building in the villa area" Zhong Bai walked along the straight road with few pedestrians, and silently counted the exquisite garden villas in front of him with his hand: "One, two, three...... Oh! This is it! ”

Inside the red brick walls covered with rotten flowers and evergreen vines, a three-story red baroque garden villa with an area of about 700 square meters suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, which looked quite historical.

Even from the layman's point of view, this villa is at least more than fifty years old, and considering that Hicks also said that his father was an old clockmaker, Zhong Bai thought it was a little interesting.

"It can't really be the kind of watch family that has been passed down for a hundred years, right? Don't joke with me like that......" Zhong Bai muttered to himself as he approached the door of the red garden villa.

After pressing the doorbell, Zhong Bai casually glanced at the identity plate of the villa owner's family next to him, with a string of letters written on it-

“LUKE PHILIPPE”

It turns out that Hisker's surname is Philip, this surname is not uncommon in French names, although it is not like the big surname of Liu Li Wang Zhang of Huaguo, but at least it is also the second most numerous surname like Sun Qian Wu.

A moment later, a thin, bald man in his fifties, dressed in a neat suit, walked to the door.

He looked at the unfamiliar eastern face outside the door, but did not open the door, but asked through the door, "Sir, may I ask ...... you?" ”

Zhong Bai immediately replied in fluent German without thinking: "Oh, I am a friend of hisk, surnamed Zhong, and I have something to visit her today." ”

"Miss Heath's friend?" The old butler frowned, and didn't seem to believe Zhong Bai's words, when did Miss Heath have such an oriental friend? Could it be a college classmate?

So the old housekeeper asked, "Are you her college classmate?" If so, can you show me your student ID? ”

Nima, I'll come to Hisker and ask if I can help with something, how to get into the house and what student ID I need? Do you check your account?

Just when Zhong Bai didn't know how to answer the other party, the window of a room on the second floor suddenly opened, and an excited female voice came from inside: "Ah, Zhong! Did you really come to me? ”

Zhong Bai and the old housekeeper were stunned at the same time, but it was the old housekeeper who reacted first, turned around and looked up and asked, "Miss, this person surnamed Zhong said that he was your friend......

"Yes! Open the door first, and I'll come down right away! ”

Half a minute later, with the sound of hurried footsteps, Hisker, dressed in a burgundy dress, appeared at the door in a slim manner, opened the door himself, and in the shocked eyes of the old butler, he naturally grabbed Zhong Bai's arm and led him into the villa.

"This ...... This is how Miss treats friends of the opposite sex? How come I've never seen one? Although the figures of the two had disappeared from view, the old butler didn't seem to believe what had just happened, and muttered to the door.
