After making a wish, financial freedom

Chapter 397 Buying a watch for Dudu

The Patek Philippe store in Shanghai is on the Bund, just a short walk past the Municipal Art Museum.

Li Zhuo and the three of them arrived after taking a walk.

This specialty store is quite stylish, it is a small two-story building with a courtyard wall, Li Zhuo also confirmed that the English name of Patek Philippe is indeed inlaid on the stone pillar at the entrance.

After they walked in, a beautiful saleswoman greeted them:
"Good evening, gentlemen, please come in."

Wang Luyao got straight to the point, and said to her as he walked:
"I'm here to order a lady's watch, the 4895G-001 watch of the classic series, does your store have it now?"

Li Zhuo next to him had never even heard of this watch, so he checked it online with his mobile phone.

4895G-001 is indeed a women's watch, with a reddish-brown dial and strap, and a band-shaped platinum diamond decoration around the case.

I have to say, it looks really expensive.

Li Zhuo glanced at the counter price given online.

158 million!
It's really not ordinary expensive, enough to buy 10 Jaeger-LeCoultre watches worn on Li Zhuo's wrist.

This watch is estimated to be at the pinnacle of Patek Philippe's non-customized ladies' watches, and female sales rarely encounter customers asking about it.

She quickly took out her ipad to check, and then said apologetically:

"Sir, the watch you want is not available in mainland China, but there is one in Hong Kong. If you need it, we will transfer it for you as soon as possible."

Patek Philippe has a very high standard. There are only two specialty stores in the whole mainland, one in the imperial capital and one in the magic capital.

Of course, Hong Kong and Macau also have one each.

"Need, please transfer over as soon as possible, the sooner the better, I will pay the deposit." Wang Luyao had the task of returning to Hangzhou with the watch, so he was naturally anxious.

"Okay, sir, don't worry, you pay the deposit now, and we will send a specialist to Hong Kong to bring the watch back, and it will definitely arrive in our store within two days..." The female salesperson led the way attentively, and took him to the front desk to pay .

Lao Wang was quick to buy things, and he paid the deposit within 10 minutes after he came in.

Sun Ke looked at the piece of Glashütte on his wrist, sighed, and said to Li Zhuo:

"After I came in, I felt that this watch was a bit inconspicuous, and I felt like I couldn't take it out."

Li Zhuo also showed the watch on his wrist, and said with a smile:

"We are the same, or we can just hide it."

After hearing this, Sun Ke laughed and said:

"Not at all, I can't help it, and you have no restrictions, why don't you buy one."

Li Zhuo smiled and said:

"Alright, then I'll buy you one too."

Sun Ke looked depressed, shook his head and said:

"No, I can't wear it, it's useless."

In this case, it would be difficult for Li Zhuo to buy it for himself. Even if he wanted to buy it, he had to wait for him to come over alone. Now he can only go shopping casually.

He walked around the women's watch area, and accidentally saw a watch that was very delicate, and it became more and more beautiful the more it looked.

It has a mother-of-pearl dial, a matte pearl white alligator strap with square scales, a rose gold case set with a circle of diamonds, and a sapphire crystal case back.

The dial is also inlaid with two small seconds dials and a moon phase, the design is very beautiful.

Li Zhuo looked at the sign, which showed that it was a white mother-of-pearl watch from Patek Philippe's complication timepiece series, model number 4948R-001.

This watch gives people the feeling of a very stylish aesthetic.

He imagined it and felt that Dudu must be very beautiful wearing it.

So, he turned his head and waved to another saleswoman, gesturing for her to come over.

With a surprised expression, the saleswoman ran over in small steps:

"Hi sir, what can I do for you?"

Li Zhuo pointed to the watch and said:

"I think it's quite beautiful, you show it to me."

The female saleswoman took it out, and Li Zhuo looked at it in her hand. It was really pretty.

So he said:
"I bought this watch, please quote me a price."

Its suggested retail price on the Internet is 64.5, but the contract price is actually not that high. The price quoted by the female salesperson is 60.

Li Zhuo followed the female salesperson to the front desk to pay, and then took the watch and the watch box away.

After leaving here, Sun Ke suddenly felt quite lonely:

"I feel a bit out of place with you two. I unilaterally announce that I will not come to Patek Philippe with you again until I find a girlfriend."

Wang Luyao purposely said in a high-pitched voice:

"Brother Sun, don't be like this. How about you buy me a female watch and give it to me? I don't mind."

"Ouch~! Hurry up and turn me back into a man!" Sun Ke felt like he was about to vomit.

They then asked Li Zhuo who bought it for, how could Li Zhuo tell the truth:
"I said I bought it for my family, do you believe me?"

The two replied in unison:
"Do not believe!"

"Oh, believe it or not, I don't care anyway." Li Zhuo said with a shrug.

Li Zhuo felt that he didn't know what to do, so he rented the 46-foot yacht named Ruiying 152 from the Pudong Metropolitan Yacht Club again.

This time he had more money on hand, and rented directly for 24 hours at a price of 95 yuan, which was more cost-effective than the previous 12-hour rental of 55 yuan.

Then I contacted Zheng Heng and asked him to help with the girls.

There was a bit of a rush in time, but Zheng Heng said he would do his best.

At around 9 o'clock that night, the club called and said that it was time to board the boat.

Both Wang Luyao and Sun Ke found it quite novel. After all, as a city not near the sea, Hangzhou does not have such a thing as a luxury yacht.

After Li Zhuo led them up, they drank and bragged on the deck while watching the night view of the Huangpu River.

Li Zhuo leaned on the side of the boat and sent Chen Duling a photo of a white mother-of-pearl watch, as well as a message:
"Dudu, this is the Patek Philippe watch I just bought for you in a specialty store, isn't it beautiful? How about I send it to you?"

Chen Duling quickly replied with several messages:
"Wow, it's very beautiful. I just returned to the hotel after filming the commercial, and I'm a little tired."

"Watches are expensive, aren't they? They're really beautiful. It's the first time I think a watch can be so beautiful. Thank you, Zhuo Zhuo. Does the name sound nice? Hee hee, I just came up with it. You call me Dudu, my name is You Zhuo Zhuo, just right."

"But don't send it to me, because when I'm busy, the things are usually collected by my agent or assistant girl, and the watch is easy to be exposed when it arrives."

After reading the message she replied, Li Zhuo sent another message asking:

"Then what should I give you?"

Chen Duling replied:
"I can't get it yet, why don't you just put it away and go get it from you when I have time?"

Li Zhuo continued to send messages:
"I often travel around the country and abroad. When you are free, I may not be free. In this case, do you usually live in Shanghai? Is there a villa here?"

"Yes, I usually live in Binjiang Garden in Huangpu Qu. There is no villa. Why do you ask this?"

Binjiang Garden is an entry-level luxury residential complex in Shanghai. It is dominated by buildings, with a mix of large and small apartment types, and the smallest apartment type is a one-bedroom type.

The living experience may not be very good.

Li Zhuo replied:

"Okay, I understand, how about this, I just opened a company in Shanghai, wait until I buy a villa here, and then put this watch there, when you return to Shanghai, you can come Stay, take it back by the way."

"Wow! Zhuo Zhuo, why are you so powerful? It feels like when you said you bought a villa, it was like I went to the street to buy an ice cream." Chen Dudu felt that Li Zhuo was not ordinary rich.

"Haha, that's not true. I like luxury houses like Tan Palace and Huazhou Junting here, but unfortunately I can't afford them." Li Zhuo replied.

Chen Duling sent an exclamation point, and then replied:
"My God, the houses in Tan Palace and Huazhou Junting can be several hundred million yuan, and the most expensive one is one billion yuan. I don't even dare to dream of living there."

She looked at the phone screen and saw the prompt that the other party was typing, and then a message jumped out:
"No, it's a bit expensive, but give me a year or two, and you can live in it."
