Chapter 266 Discordant Voice

Jiang Feng smiled and immediately thought of a common phrase from nouveau riche: "As long as you have value for money, the price is not a problem!"

When the shopping guide heard Jiang Feng's words, he immediately felt relieved and invited them to the two, "The best watches are all inside the internal counter, please come in and choose them?"

Jiang Feng nodded, held hands with Zong Luoyao, and led by the shopping guide, entered a room behind, and then walked through a corridor full of watches and arrived at an exhibition hall of about 200 square meters. (You can read the novel.)

There are about a dozen waiters here, all of whom are young and beautiful girls, and their qualities are no less than those of the flight attendants.

"There are so many beauties here. Are you looking at the eyes?" Zong Luoyao smiled and asked Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Who has the time to see others when my wife is by my side?"

"What do you mean is that if your wife is not around, you can look at the beauty everywhere?" Zong Luoyao asked with a snorkeling.

Jiang Feng immediately stated: "I have never said this before. It's because your understanding is biased."

The two of them were talking and laughing, and led by the shopping guide to the front of a counter.

"What brand is this? Why have I never heard of it?" Jiang Feng looked at the watch. There was neither a trademark nor a distinct mark. It looked like a copycat watch, and he couldn't help but ask with some doubt.

Zong Luoyao didn't know much about this, so both of them had the same expression of suspicion.

At this time, the shopping guide invited an older watchmaker to explain to the two of them the origin and structure of this couple's watch.

The watchmaker carefully held up a watch with white gloves and introduced to the two people: "In the history of watchmaking technology for four hundred years, watchmaking masters have created six classic masterpieces, and their production requires excellent knowledge, exquisite technology, and very high complexity and difficulty. Other brands have made one or two of these six classic masterpieces, but in 1988, Blancpain decided to pass all the tests of watchmaking art. At the same time, six classic masterpieces were launched, and these two couple watches were the masterpieces of the masters at that time."

"What six classics?" Zong Luoyao asked curiously.

"The first is ultra-thin, the second is ultra-thin plus month, date, week and moon phase profit and loss display. The third is perpetual calendar, the fourth is the double-second needle chassis timer, the fifth is to eliminate gravitational errors, and the sixth is to report the time." When the watchmaker talked about this, his face was full of high-rise expressions, which obviously he admired the watchmakers at that time.

"The top mechanical watches are all small-scale production. For watchmakers who sit on the bench and bent over to create a watch, they face a sense of professional responsibility and enthusiasm for imagination. For several months, they only need to create a famous watch. Watchmakers who must lock dozens of screws in sequence must have enough force when applying force, but not too hard. Whenever the screw is locked, they must also be bet on the whole heart. Watches made with such mental strength can naturally be squeezed into the same art as paintings and carvings," the master continued.

After hearing what the master said, the two people felt that the two watches were a lot more color. The handmade watches were indeed made by watchmakers. It is naturally reasonable to sell at a higher price, which is incomparable to those Japanese electronic watches.

"Well, how much does it cost? I want this watch." Jiang Feng looked at the two watches carefully and thought it was very good, so he started asking for the price.

But then a discordant note came, and a stiff voice came behind them and said: "Northern couple watches are only suitable for matching lovers. You are not worthy of wearing this watch!"

Which idiot is so annoying? Jiang Feng turned his head a little annoyed.

Jiang Feng looked back and saw that he was talking with a tall gray-haired young man, like a Frenchman or an Italian, and there was also a beautiful woman with blond hair around him.

In addition, behind them, a woman with black framed eyes, who seemed to be a tour guide or translator.

"Hey, nowadays, the confidence of international friends is getting stronger and stronger?" Jiang Feng, who was disturbed in a good mood, said sarcastically.

Zong Luoyao glanced at the two people, pulled Jiangfeng's arm and said, "Don't pay attention to them, let's just buy them and leave."

Because Zong Luoyao was by his side, Jiang Feng was unwilling to influence his mood, so he asked the master: "Okay, we have bought these two watches in total."

The old man didn't expect that Jiang Feng would buy it without even asking the price, so he said to him: "These two are just treasures of the store. Before, only people asked for the price, but no one was moved. The price was really higher. The total price of the two was 660,000 US dollars."

"So many? It's really a bit expensive." Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that these two watches were worth so much money. It turned out that he thought that at best it was only hundreds of thousands of yuan.

After all, a watch that is placed in such a place is worth so much money?

If the master hadn't told him what the value of this watch was reflected for a long time, he would have turned around without saying a word. If Zong Luoyao refused to do so, he would rather take her to Switzerland and ask the masters to design a unique couple watch, rather than buy ready-made watches here directly.

At this time, the foreign man began to annoy people again, but he seemed to be afraid of the price of this watch, and just talked about the history of watches: "Swiss watches are well known to everyone, but the watchmaking industry was not born and raised in Switzerland. The earliest watch manufacturing industry was in our France. At the end of the 16th century, the religious struggle in France led to a massacre, and the Huguenots who followed Calvin fled to Switzerland and brought the technology to make watches. The combination of French watch technology and the local gold and silver jewelry industry in Switzerland, the Swiss watchmaking industry emerged. It spread out from Geneva, close to France, mainly along the line of the Jura Mountains to the northeast, and bloomed everywhere in the northern half of Switzerland."

Jiang Feng was not in a mood to listen to him nagging. Seeing Zong Luoyao seemingly liked these two unmarked watches, he stopped caring about the price. He said to the master, "Well, it looks good. Then it's better, wrap it up for me. As for the payment, are you transferring the money in a bank or wanting cash?"

The master smiled and said, "Of course, bank transfer is the best. We can handle 660,000 US dollars in cash. There is a bank across the street downstairs, which is very convenient."

Jiang Feng nodded and said to Zong Luoyao: "Yaoyao, then you can sit here for a while, and I'll transfer the money with them."

Zong Luoyao shook his head and said, "What's the point of staying here alone? Let's go together."

The master gave an order, and the two waiters followed Jiang Feng and the others downstairs. The four of them walked and chatted, and then went to the bank.

Although it is still Tuesday, because it is about the New Year, the traffic of people on Wangfujing Street is also higher, and the banking business is very busy. Fortunately, their amount is huge, so they are considered big customers. The waiters in the watch shop have a good relationship with the local area here and often have bulk business transactions, so they took them to a shortcut, go to the back large customer area to apply for a transfer, issue an invoice, and then return to the counter.

When they arrived at the counter, they found that there was a quarrel.

It seemed like a middle-aged man like a shopping mall manager, arguing with the master of the watch counter, while the French man stood aside and watched the fun, and whistled from time to time. The blonde beauty laughed and looked very Coke-like.

"Manager Chen, how can you do this? How can you sell the same table to two customers?" The old man said to the middle-aged man with some angrily, "What should I say when the customer comes back later?"

"Whatever you want, Mr. Perl is the son of the French ambassador. Since he has taken a fancy to the watches here, it is very respectful. How can you sell them to others? This is a matter that damages the friendship between China and France." The middle-aged man said with confidence.

"But they have already paid..." The master was so angry that he thought to himself, how could there be such a leader who admires foreign countries?

"Then let's say they pay late?" the middle-aged man snorted, "What's this place? Beijing! Could it be that they dare to make trouble? That's it. Give them a refund and pack these two watches for Mr. Pell!"

At this moment, Jiang Feng and Zong Luoyao could hear it very clearly. It turned out that this French man was really the son of the French ambassador. He took his girlfriend to visit the mall. As a result, his girlfriend suddenly fell in love with the watch chosen by Jiang Feng and Zong Luoyao, and acted coquettishly and wanted Pel to buy it for her.

Although Perl felt a little painful, after all, it was $660,000, not $660,000. Although Perl's son is the ambassador to France, their family is not a company and has no big source of income, but he cannot ignore $660,000. You know, one dollar is equivalent to a franc of more than five yuan!

However, in order to gain the favor of the beauty in front of everyone, he had to accept it. However, Jiang Feng had already decided to buy this watch and he went to pay the money. He didn't know what to do. He discussed with the master to see if he could reject Jiang Feng and the others and sell the watch to them. But the master was very upright and trustworthy, so naturally it was impossible for him to do such a breach of contract. So he ran to the mall manager, explained his identity, and asked the other party to sell the things to him.
