Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Spending Money Day 67
You can drive from Hengdian to Suzhou, but Sang Yu remembered that Liu Yue once said that she wanted to experience the business class of the high-speed rail, so she bought a high-speed rail ticket from Yiwu to Suzhou.
Liu Yue was very happy. She had forgotten about this matter, but she didn't expect Sang Yu still remembered it. She was so considerate.
Moreover, Sang Yu also helped her choose a seat, which was a business class seat in a box!
However, probably because she had already experienced first class on international flights, the business class cabin did not bring much surprise to Liu Yue.
The reclining seats and complimentary slippers and blankets were merely standard amenities. Furthermore, pets were not allowed on the high-speed train and had to be checked in. Liu Yue, worried, asked Zhang Cheng to arrange a special car for Lucas, with a nanny taking him to Suzhou.
After the experience, there was an item on Liu Yue's curiosity list that was checked and could be deleted.
On the high-speed train, Liu Yue, who had nothing to do, was browsing Chanel's upcoming new clothes on her tablet.
Although the earliest new products from the High-end Handicraft Workshop are available in May and it is only early April now, Liu Yue is a distinguished VIC, so of course she can buy them in advance.
Moreover, she doesn't have to go to the store in person to choose the clothes. She can just reserve the clothes she wants in advance. Her assistant will communicate with the sales staff about her latest size and preferences and make some adjustments to the details.
"Chanel clothes are still the same, they always look ordinary..."
Liu Yue said as she looked, but it was undeniable that these clothes looked great on her body.
It seems that the materials and tailoring of clothes really have a great impact. These details are difficult to present on a flat picture. No wonder a piece of clothing requires more than a dozen photos, a 360-degree surround display, and various partial enlarged pictures to make it easier to see the texture of the clothes.
The Métiers d'Art is the season when Chanel's new products are the most craftsmanship-intensive each year. Of course, this is most directly reflected in its price.
Liu Yue took a fancy to a black hand-embroidered dress that cost 458,000 yuan.
Even if it was Chanel, she confirmed it again, it was 450,000, not 45,000.
The skirt is indeed beautiful, but the price is almost as high as that of haute couture, right?
"The clothes made by the workshop do use a lot of haute couture techniques."
Sang Yu said beside him: "Speaking of which, both Chanel and Dior have invited you to participate in this year's Haute Couture Fashion Week, which will be held in July in Paris."
It's not surprising that Chanel sent her an invitation, but why did Dior...
Oh, maybe it’s because she has shopped in Gstaad and was labeled by the brand as a wealthy and leisurely customer, belonging to the high-end target group.
Liu Yue said casually, "Tell them to save a seat for me. I'll decide whether to go or not later."
After all, it's only April now, and it's still early for three months. Who knows where she will be then?
Sang Yu nodded. Even she couldn't predict Liu Yue's schedule, as she often acted on a whim.
She added: "There will be many brands showing their new products on the runway during Haute Couture Fashion Week. If you are interested in clothes from other brands, I can help you contact the brands and arrange a seat for you."
Liu Yue hummed, then said, "I heard Elie Saab's dresses are really ethereal. Please arrange a seat for me closer to the front. I want to see their new styles."
Elie Saab became famous in the country, largely thanks to the various amazing photos of female stars on the red carpet.
This style of clothes is not Liu Yue's purchase target, but it does not stop her from liking to look at it.
If she buys for herself... Chanel with a more everyday style is her comfort zone.
Liu Yue's attention returned to the tablet. Her spending task today was 100,000 yuan.
But it's not a big problem. These clothes will cost her a few million at most. Given the size of her savings, the increase or decrease in this amount is nothing.
Moreover, this is only the ordering stage. Once the clothes arrive at the store or are delivered to her home and she tries them on, she can then pay.
There are several nice-looking coats this season. Liu Yue was just about to place an order when she suddenly remembered that the weather in Shenzhen is very hot all year round, and it seems that there is no occasion for her to wear the coat.
But she thought again, given her current situation in collecting fragments, she didn't know where the system would let her go next time.
Rather than worrying about whether there is an occasion to wear it, the bigger problem is whether it will be your turn to wear it...
After all, Liu Yue couldn't recall ever wearing the same clothes again after linking her account to the system. Even when she was traveling, her family would send her new clothes, or she would buy new ones locally.
New clothes can make her feel good. Liu Yue has no intention of changing this habit, and this is also an important way for her to spend money.
As for what to do with the old clothes... Liu Yue looked at Sang Yu.
Sang Yu thought for a moment and said, "I'll keep some classic styles that you're likely to like. The fast-fashion styles that tend to go out of style easily can be sold on second-hand platforms. You've only worn those clothes once, and most of them aren't dirty or damaged, so they should sell well."
In fact, this is a good plan to recover losses, but Liu Yue still remembers that most of her clothes were bought with the system's money, and selling them herself would affect the cash back.
Although there were some parts in it that seemed to be spent with her own money...but Liu Yue had too many clothes, how could she tell them apart? That little bit of money didn't matter.
She said, "No, just take whatever you want and deal with it yourself later."
If the money from selling the clothes belongs to her, it would be considered illegal cash withdrawal;
But if the old clothes are handed over to the team members, whether they sell them or keep them for other uses, it can be regarded as Liu Yue giving them a disguised bonus, which is a reasonable behavior.
Of course, if they are not interested, they can just order door-to-door recycling, and Liu Yue has no objection, after all, these are clothes she has worn.
Sang Yu nodded. In addition to bags, second-hand luxury clothes also have a considerable market.
Moreover, Liu Yue’s closet has more than just old clothes to deal with. There are also many new clothes that she has never worn.
Of course she likes it when she buys it, but when she wears new clothes, she finds something she likes more in the closet, and then she goes to the mall and finds new and even better ones... The original favorite will be covered in dust, forgotten by her, and then become outdated.
She still needs to discuss this matter with Ren Zhen to see how to implement it specifically to avoid the situation where the nanny wants a certain piece of clothing but deliberately doesn't let Liu Yue wear it.
This situation is common in wealthy families. Once such a precedent is set, at first it may just be clothes that the owner can wear or not, but later it will develop into clothes that the owner likes very much, and the nanny will dare to make excuses such as being washed or temporarily unable to find them.
If the employer's family situation is more complicated and the nanny has a more arrogant personality, she may directly damage the clothes and create defects, making it impossible for the owner to wear the clothes.
People's hearts are fickle. Liu Yue's original intention was good, but Sang Yu believed more in rules with clear boundaries and was unwilling to test human nature.
After coming out of the high-speed rail station, there is still some distance to the Shuizhongtian Hotel.
Zhang Cheng rented a business car. The moment the car door opened, Liu Yue was a little shocked.
“This car has so much interior space!”
It is really high. Apart from buses and public buses, this is the first time that Liu Yue has ridden in a business car that allows her to walk upright inside the car without having to bend over.
Moreover, there is still some distance between her head and the roof of the car, which allows her to move freely.
The car has a baffle that is commonly seen in domineering CEO novels - it is a real baffle that divides the front and back seats into two independent spaces. There is also a large TV screen on the baffle that can play audio and video works.
What made Liu Yue most satisfied was that there was a toilet in the car, and the space inside was no smaller than the toilet on an ordinary airplane.
Liu Yue asked: "What kind of car is this?"
There are actually commercial vehicles on the market that are equipped with toilets, which she had never seen before.
Sang Yu: "It's a modified Mercedes-Benz Sprinter."
Oh, it’s a modified car, she said.
Liu Yue sat down and found the seat very comfortable. Because the car was large, her legroom was also very spacious. She tried it and found that it could also lie flat 180 degrees in the car.
"I like this car." Liu Yue said, "I'll order one when I get back."
Sang Yu said it was no problem, as there were many Sprinters in stock in China, and there were many ways to modify them.
Adding a toilet is just a slight change. Some people even remove all the fixed seats in the car and turn it into a tea room, so that they can drink tea and enjoy the scenery wherever they go.
Liu Yue was imagining her renovation inspiration: "A toilet is a must. This design is great. The space needs to be more spacious and have a refrigerator so I can have cold drinks. Oh, and I also need a pet seat for Lucas."
"I need to go to the toilet, and the cat needs to go too! Leave a place for it to put cat food and litter box, but don't let it get too close..."
Sang Yu nodded and took notes. When she heard Liu Yue say that she wanted to arrange a place to cook in the car, her hand holding the stylus paused.
It was… doable, but she had a more recommended method.
She said, "You could actually consider renting an RV and exploring campgrounds around the world. If you meet other travelers with pets, you and Lucas might make new friends."
Oh, this is a good suggestion.
Liu Yue's eyes lit up. RV! And Sang Yu was talking about camping, which made her doubly excited!
"Let's buy one," Liu Yue said. "Although renting an RV is more convenient, it's hard to find one that I'm completely satisfied with."
If she bought an RV, transportation would be a big problem. After all, if she wanted to go to a campsite abroad, she couldn't drive the RV all the way there.
But she has money, and money can solve all the troublesome and difficult problems, making everything go as she wishes, and every detail suits her needs.
This is the meaning of life, Liu Yue lay in the chair and sighed leisurely.
