Chapter 428 The Joy of Consumption



January has passed and February is winter.

Chen Pingsheng's family chose to celebrate the New Year in Hong Kong, and there were more than one or two relatives who came here.

His younger sister Chen Qi and older sister Chen Yao both came to Hong Kong with their families.

Hong Kong is bustling, and fortunately his multi-billion dollar mansion on the top of the mountain is extremely large.

This year, I simply invited everyone in the Chen family to come to Hong Kong to celebrate the New Year.

My eldest sister’s two daughters, Xiao Ya and Xiao Le, are in high school and junior high school respectively.

Both of them have very good grades. As the saying goes, nieces look like their uncles. It is obvious that they have inherited his learning genes.

Chen Anan also returned home from the Stranger Restaurant. With so many relatives coming to her house, she could no longer work as a waitress.

After the New Year's holiday, I can go when I want to.

Celebrating the New Year in Hong Kong is different from my hometown. Fireworks and firecrackers are definitely not allowed on the top of the mountain, and the New Year atmosphere is instantly reduced by half.

However, international metropolises naturally have their own advantages, namely, convenient shopping.

Both children and women like it.

Chen Pingsheng hosted a party at home and invited them to go shopping together.

It must be said that he hasn't been to a big shopping mall for a long time, and his wife helps him buy everything he needs.

This time is different. His niece is here and the Chinese New Year is approaching. How can he not come out to pay for it?

The advantage of having money is very obvious, that is, you are especially loved by children during the New Year.

Unlike the second kid at home, the two in the eldest sister's family are obviously still hesitant when it comes to spending money.

They don't dare to spend a lot of money and are quite sensible.

"Dad, when are we going to buy a big shopping mall?"

Erpiya is a big shot when she speaks.

She is the youngest and the shortest. She wears frog-eye glasses and walks in front of the fat girl, and her aura is unmatched.

"Shopping isn't enough for you anymore, you want to buy a whole street, right?"

"No, I just thought that if we had a big shopping mall at home, we wouldn't have to go out and spend money!"

What a bullshit reason.

You can't believe a single word Eryatou says.

"Buy whatever you like. Your uncle will pay for you today."

Chen Pingsheng asked Xiao Ya and Xiao Le to choose what they liked, and he took his wife to choose gifts together.

Counting the time, they have been married for twelve years.

Harbour City has all the top luxury goods, including Patek Philippe and Richard Miller, which have their own counters here.

The waiters inside were all dressed in white shirts and black suits, and were very elegantly dressed. They wore two white gloves when holding watches.

Handle it with care.

The most expensive watch in Chen Ping’s life is the Patek Philippe 5002G platinum watch.

It looks both casual and business-like when worn on the wrist, and it highlights your temperament when you show it casually.

This watch was bought for him by Big Butt.

"Hey, this watch suits my mom."

Chen Anan has a good eye and saw that a Patek Philippe with a pink dial is indeed suitable for her mother.

But there are really a lot of zeros at the end.

"Take it out and try it."

If this person is not a senior member of Patek Philippe, the waiter would never easily take out such a top-level watch for people to try on.

It does look good when Michelle Song wears it herself.

At least it looks much better than the Jaeger-LeCoultre in her hand.

The price of more than 30 million is not too expensive, just buy it if you like it.

This is the spending power of my uncle’s family.

Xiao Ya and Xiao Le, who were following behind, were truly eye-opening.

In fact, their family's conditions have been getting better and better over the years, with the help of their eldest sister Chen Yao.

He opened four or five large supermarkets in the schools he founded. He owned all the storefronts and did not have to pay a penny for rent.

It must be easy to earn three or four million a year.

For the middle class, this is definitely the most comfortable life.

You don’t need to deal with any external social interactions and still have this kind of income, what else do you want?

"Big sister, can you each pick one?"

Patek Philippe is the king of watches, but it’s nothing to him.

As the Chinese New Year approached, each of them was given a piece of sprinkled water. The two nieces were hesitant and didn't dare to choose.

It was Chen Anan who told them that Patek Philippe was not suitable for their age.

In comparison, Richard Miller's fashionable styles are more suitable for their age.

What kind of brand is this? It’s a ticket to becoming a billionaire. Any kid who can wear Richard Miller must have a family with hundreds of millions of assets.

Liu Fen pulled Peng Ying to go and pick something. After waiting for a long time for her son-in-law to come out and pay the bill with them, they had to choose something more expensive.

Her daughter bought a watch worth 30 million without blinking an eye, so it shouldn't be a big deal for her as a mother to buy a watch worth 3 million!

Liu Fen doesn't have very good taste, so she only cares about gold ones with diamonds.

I chose for myself a dazzling piece of elegant series made of 18k rose gold with 518 diamonds, totaling 2.52 carats.

In Chen Anan's opinion, this watch is just tacky.

Liu Fen herself liked it very much, mainly because she liked the price.

Three million and two hundred thousand! This is something I should show off to my old sisters.

As for Peng Ying, he also bought a piece worth more than three million yuan.

With a swipe of the small card, four or five hundred million can be easily spent.

Chen Anan also took her cousins ​​Xiao Le and Xiao Ya to Richard Miller and bought one each.

It adds up to more than five million.

She herself was doing it very easily, but her two cousins ​​clearly felt that their hands were a little unnatural.

I'm afraid of the sun if I lift it up, and I'm afraid of touching that expensive watch if I put it down.

This is not like wearing an ornament, it feels like wearing an ancestor.

The watch was the most expensive item the group bought, mainly because their consumption concept had improved.

If it’s not a top brand, I won’t even look at it, and the same applies to giving gifts.

There are so many clothes and other things here that women can't stop shopping.

After walking with them for more than an hour, Chen Pingsheng simply stopped moving.

Find a place to stop and have a cup of Lujiao coffee to rest.

"Dad, don't you think most of these luxury goods are just a tax on your IQ?"

Chen Anan bought a pair of very special shoes, also known as beggar shoes.

This type of shoes is quite common on construction sites, and they are placed in Harbour City with a big brand logo.

Guess what the price is?

More than 50,000.

Luxury goods never cheat the poor.

Chen Anan herself felt that she was paying an IQ tax.

"Luxury products are all about showing off and selling logos, and the IQ tax really accounts for a large part of it."

"Then why do we buy so much?"

"You stumped me. Didn't you buy it yourself?"

Chen Pingsheng pondered for a moment. "With your current spending power, do you really think these shoes worth over 50,000 yuan can be called luxury goods? Aren't there plenty of women in Shanghai with monthly incomes over 10,000 yuan who often spend several months' wages on them?"

"I feel like that kind of woman is pretty stupid."

Chen Anan shook her feet and said that of course she had the right to say such things.

A pair of shoes worth more than 50,000 yuan is not a luxury item to her at all. Only a woman who squeezes out several months' salary to buy them would use such things as a means of showing off.

Little do they know that such behavior is extremely superficial in front of people who can really afford such things.

"Your mom is still shopping! She really loves shopping!"

"That's all Mom has a hobby. Haven't you seen my second sister with short legs running happily now?"

Erpi Ya is usually very lazy, but once he gets to a big shopping mall, he can walk very fast.

I want to go everywhere and can't stop.

When they came out, Michelle Song was still holding a Hermès rose gold Kelly bag that cost 15 million.

There are only 12 of them in the world.

Made from a material similar to crocodile skin and solid rose gold, the bag is also set with 1,160 diamonds.

This may seem like a waste and a show-off to others, but it means nothing to them.

It’s just daily consumption throughout the year.

Even Erpi Ya has luxury goods hanging around her neck. She is truly a talented person.

Stop when there is no more room to hang.

When I went out and saw a Pagani R, the big-breasted kids all said it looked good.

Chen Pingsheng bought two of them directly. He had no other intentions, he just thought they were a little cool.

There is still some joy in buying a sports car in Hong Kong.

After all, it's not like the mainland where the speed limit is 120 everywhere.

Even if you collect all three great cars, you will lose the joy of driving a sports car under the speed limit of 120.

After shopping at Harbour City, the family got on the car to go home, carrying a lot of bags.

Fortunately, there were enough cars to pick them up, and any one of them was full.
