Rich life from scratch

Chapter 113 Listening to the Voice of Money

Under Chen Xue's warm reception, Lin Qishan stepped into the two-story building of Patek Philippe.

The interior decoration style is classical and elegant. The leather wall covering interior, classical oil paintings, and exquisite sofa lamps give people a very cultural charm.

Chen Xue knew that it was his first time to come to the source mansion in Shanghai, so he introduced it appropriately, saying that the decoration style of the store here is basically the same as that of the salon in Geneva, and it pays attention to inheritance.

"Look on the right, this is our timepiece exhibition hall. In the display cabinets are the full series of watches of the eight families that we are still producing. On the left and right are our sales exhibition halls. You can see the exquisite watches we are selling."

It's rare to come here, and it's still treated as a VIP. Lin Qishan also appreciates it leisurely. It's said that such high-end luxury goods often like to pay attention to style.

The style is that someone else came in. At first glance, I really don’t know what is sold here. It is more like the residence or museum of an old nobleman. I can’t connect it until I see the exquisite watches in the Maple Leaf showcase.

"You can go up to the second floor from here. There is also our timepiece exhibition hall on the second floor. Our precious exhibits and art treasures such as advanced custom jewelry accessories will be exhibited here. We also have many traveling exhibitions every year."

Lin Qishan stepped up the teak steps, and the watches displayed on the second floor were even more exquisite, but he might have missed the time when the exhibits were the most abundant. Among these beautiful and beautiful watches, he didn't seem to see any super complicated functions.

However, after visiting and browsing, accompanied by the introduction of the beautiful young lady, even if it is a free prostitution, if you come here and go back, the conversation will increase a lot!

But Lin Qishan didn't plan to go back empty-handed today. After the tour, Chen Xue invited him to the VIP room on the second floor, poured black tea for him, brought him afternoon snacks, and began to understand the needs of customers while enjoying it.

Lin Qishan said: "I came here for several reasons. I want to choose one or two watches for women, which are more exquisite and meet women's aesthetic preferences."

"Then I want to know about your minute repeater. I want to know all the questions about purchasing or ordering. Of course, I am also interested in hearing the stories related to it."

Chen Xue corrected her posture, and nodded while listening to customers smiling: "Sir, I understand what you mean, first of all, let me bring you some popular ladies' watches?"

"Yes!" Lin Qishan nodded.

He looks at women's watches for two purposes. One is to prepare a gift for Teacher Zhao. She is a delicate, mature and capable woman with a good family background, so a watch fits her temperament very well.

The second purpose is for the present. Although Brother Hao told him to have fun casually, after all, he can’t let others pay for it, but he is too lazy to go and choose other things, so one-stop shopping is in line with the efficiency of men!

In the end, it can be included in the consumption quota, paving the way for becoming a VVIP in the future... Man, it's so neat!He picked two blingbling watches with diamonds, both of which are women's favorite beauty.

It costs only 60 yuan for such a swipe. It is true that sometimes a man is not good enough to be handsome, and he needs to have the temperature of money. Although he can take his time, but he loves to take shortcuts if he can’t stand the money!
After winning it, I came to my highlight today. After Chen Xue knew it, she told him: "You are very destined today. We have a minute repeater watch that has been ordered but not yet delivered to the customer. I can present it to you for display."

"Oh? Let me appreciate it!"

"Just a moment."

Chen Xuebian went to apply.

Lin Qishan is quite interested in the minute repeater watch.

You must know that Patek Philippe has a title of "King of Minute Repeater".

The three-question watch is a top-notch watchmaking process. It is also called a three-reed watch.

It's too complicated to go deep, so let's take a more touching number as an example. For any model of Patek Philippe, as long as it has the "three-question" function, there is no less than 300 million, hundreds of thousands, thousands of dollars. Wan is easy.

So guys, when you have a lot of drinks at parties, and you want to find something to talk about on your watch, don't talk about platinum and rose gold, how many diamonds, stars all over the sky... these are too elementary!

In the minds of many collectors, the three question mark is the most outstanding function!And Patek Philippe's minute repeater is also known as the king with the best sound and the most skill!
When Chen Xue wore gloves and brought up the watch box with a sense of ceremony, Lin Qishan's attention never left it.

Chen Xue solemnly introduced: "This is a 5208P that our store applied for. It has been ordered by our customers half a year ago. Before delivery, we can show you its workmanship and special functions."

This watch looks quite low-key, if in the eyes of people who don't understand it, a big brother wearing a big gold labor, others will say that he is so flashy and rich, and wearing this?It is estimated that some people think that there is nothing special about broken watches!
However, when Chen Xue pulled the starting rod on the case, the hammer in the case immediately knocked on the sound spring, and sounded the sound of "Ding Ding Ding Ding ... Ding Ding Ding Ding Dang", which is the main report!

This sound is heard in the ears of people who know how to do it. It is not time telling, it is the crystallization of top watchmaking technology!That very characteristic and penetrating sound, this is a symphony of millions of dollars!
After really listening to the sound of the minute repeater, the beauty and unparalleled mechanical craftsmanship is indescribable, and Lin Qishan immediately planted grass!
One must have a minute repeater watch in one’s life, otherwise collecting other watches would feel like a lot of meaning is lost, and even now he is thinking about whether he can cut off the beard.

But Chen Xue could only say regretfully: "This watch was pre-ordered by our VIP customer. If he wants to take it, he can only refuse it. But he is a senior collector, so he probably won't give it up."

This way doesn't work, but Lin Qishan really can't put it down: "Is there any other way? I really like the voice of the third question, and I don't want to give it back to you if I take it!"

After hearing this, Chen Xue laughed softly. Rich people are indeed funny and arrogant, and she also tried to find a way for him: "Brother Lin, in fact, the three-question watch, except for the salon shop's requirements for customers, other Anyone can buy what the watch shop applied for.”

"The headquarters does not have particularly strict requirements on us. They don't care who owns the watch. As long as it is not sold as expected, in principle, even customers who have never bought Patek Philippe can buy it."

Lin Qishan understood, it was nothing more than money: "So is there anything left for me? Don't talk about those official words, I can give a deposit if I need it, and you promise to give it to me!"

Patek Philippe is sometimes so arrogant. For example, almost all of their best-selling Nautilus are out of stock, and they want to pre-order, but they don’t accept a deposit, because after receiving a deposit, it means that they must give it.

But their sales are too tight, you can make a reservation if you want, but we don't charge a deposit... This is what Lin Qishan wants to emphasize behind, don't fool me!

Chen Xue didn't dare to fool around, she opened the tablet: "The store is in the application form... I found the new Ref.5216P for you, and it is estimated that I can get it in half a year."

"Look at this piece in the picture. Compared with the tourbillon that 5208 lacks, it realizes the collective presentation of three major complex functions. The minute repeater, tourbillon and perpetual calendar are all in one, and it is a well-deserved watch king!"

"Its public price is 765000 U.S. dollars. After entering the country, we estimate based on the existing exchange rate and tax rate that you can get it with a price of less than 600 million!"
