Women are usually slow when picking clothes, but since Zhou Wang has already set the "rules"—that is, keep everything unless the size is obviously wrong—and with Zhou Wang urging them, Jiang Mubai and Wang Xiaoxiao moved quickly.
During the process, Miss Yang and Zhou Zihan also picked out two pieces each, just the right two pieces. They were just joining in for fun, to strengthen their relationship. With their respective wealth, they didn’t need to ask Zhou Wang to pay for a few pieces of clothing.
But when it was time to pay, the enthusiastic salespeople were somewhat dumbfounded.
Because although Zhou Wang didn’t delay payment, he also didn’t pay all at once, but rather offered a very bizarre payment method... paying one piece at a time.
Even though they didn’t quite understand, the customer is king, and they couldn’t go against Zhou Wang, their major client’s wish. They had to cooperate by inputting different amounts into the POS machine repeatedly.
"This piece is sixty-eight thousand, right... "
"Forty-nine thousand paid, next piece."
"What, a discount? No, no, I don’t need a discount... just the original price."
Zhou Wang seemed patient too, swiping the card for payment repeatedly, and listening to the system’s occasional critical strike prompt, developing a subtle sense of satisfaction.
The main thing was that he had already confirmed through previous experiments that the strategy of separate payment was feasible. He couldn’t break down the amount, for example, a total of one million; he couldn’t swipe ten times for one hundred thousand each to trick the system, but he could increase the number of payments by treating each commodity separately, improving the overall yield.
When the last receipt was printed, all the salespeople present breathed a sigh of relief.
Whether it was Zhou Wang’s twisted fun or not, the payment process, lasting forty minutes, was finally over.
Zhou Wang also checked against the income and expenditure details in his bank card and roughly calculated.
This time, including his own, he procured a total of 63 garments, 24 pairs of shoes, some stockings and underwear from five luxury brands, with a total expenditure of 6.13 million.
...didn’t feel too expensive.
If it weren’t for Hermes providing some high-end limited editions that couldn’t be found on the market, perhaps it wouldn’t even reach 5 million.
Of course, Zhou Wang knew this was purely his own inflation, averaging seventy or eighty thousand a piece, it couldn’t be considered cheap by any means.
The cause of this misconception was also another, although he spent over 6 million in just a few dozen minutes, the final result was his bank card balance didn’t decrease but increased, nearly 7 million more...
[Endless Blade] is truly amazing; although the critical strike probability doesn’t seem high, the overall yield compared to [Azure Dragon Saber] is much more stable.
Next, it’s time for the real all-in.
Zhou Wang had already decided that the category most suitable for him to "spend" his money on was actually jewelry and accessories.
The transaction process for cars and houses is cumbersome, he doesn’t understand antiques and calligraphy, can’t buy gold, there aren’t that many flagship watches in stock, so his choices are actually few.
From both the standpoint of value retention and realization, jewelry and accessories are doubtlessly the optimal solution.
But the only problem is... Zhou Wang lacks knowledge in this field, he lacks access.
The jewelry and accessories he wants to buy are obviously not those 24K gold necklaces sold at mall counters; he needs genuine high-grade goods...
"Hey, Zhou Wang, what are you thinking, we’re asking you, want to go have some Japanese food together?"
Seeing Zhou Wang lost in thought, Zhou Zihan waved his hand in front of him.
Zhou Wang snapped back to reality, about to refuse, but his eyes swept over the two women in front of him, suddenly surprised, then he couldn’t help but laugh at himself for being silly.
Damn, there are two genuine wealthy ladies standing right in front of me!
Rich men play with watches, cars, and yachts, and for wealthy women, those shiny things are equally their favorites.
Especially Miss Yang, a long-time darling of the fashion world, a frequent guest on magazine covers, the genuine Red Carpet Queen, the jewelry brands she has collaborated with are countless. In this regard, she probably can truly guide Zhou Wang.
"Miss Yang, I have something I’d like to consult you about..."
Zhou Wang immediately spoke out about his need.
"Buying jewelry?"
Miss Yang blinked, seemingly surprised, "What kind of jewelry?"
"A bit pricier... but definitely not the kind sold at mall counters."
"You mean high-end jewelry, right?"
Miss Yang chuckled, "What’s the purpose, do you need a necklace, ring or earrings, does it require personal involvement in design, and what’s the budget?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wang realized Miss Yang was obviously quite knowledgeable, but she hadn’t yet understood his point.
"I just want ready-to-buy finished products, any type is fine, but I need the ones with higher value... as for quantity, the more the better."
"The more the better?"
Miss Yang thought for a bit, counting on her fingers, "I’m quite familiar with top jewelry brands, like Chaumet, Van Cleef & Arpels, and Cartier; I know the heads of these in Huaxia, but as far as I know, their physical stores, aside from some mass-market civilian styles, actually don’t have much high-end stock..."
"Zhou Wang, you must understand one thing, real high-end jewelry needs to be customized, even if occasionally there are some exhibition items, they’re not concentrated..."
"As for those private jewelry lounges, they seem to have many exhibits, but if you want to buy many pieces at once, it’s basically impossible, many of them are either private collections or already have buyers..."
