Chapter 738: Chapter 739: The Gauthier Family [Third Update]
Now, international crime, including money laundering, is subject to strict investigations, but if it were not for Ye Qiu not wanting to be too troubled, he would have gone to another Huaxia sub-branch to conduct this transaction.
After waiting in the VIP room for about fifteen minutes, the female bank clerk from before had returned, having already helped Ye Qiu change ten million Huaxia Yuan into Euros. Now, with over a million Euros, as soon as Ye Qiu entered the password, they could be transferred into Housekeeper Eugene’s account.
"When will it arrive?"
Ye Qiu asked.
"It will arrive immediately!"
The female clerk said.
After confirming that it was indeed Housekeeper Eugene’s bank account, Ye Qiu transferred the money, over a million Euros, into the account.
Then, after five minutes, Ye Qiu took out his mobile phone and called Housekeeper Eugene.
"Did you receive the money?"
"Young Master Ye, I’ve received the funds, I was just about to call and report to you!"
"As long as it’s received, spend it according to my plan," Ye Qiu said and directly hung up the phone, surprising the female clerk beside him with his fluent French.
Until just now, she had thought that Ye Qiu was a pretentious rich second-generation pretending to be poor, but looking at him now, he did not seem to be that. Could he actually be a local Chinese trying to appear impoverished?
Without even drinking the coffee, Ye Qiu left the Industrial and Commercial Bank after completing the transfer to Housekeeper Eugene.
Upon entering his vehicle, he instructed the driver to head for a five-star hotel.
Paris, the capital of fashion and tourism, boasts a highly developed service industry with an abundance of five-star hotels, including ones owned by both Count Charley and the Louise family.
The Louise family, a great financial conglomerate of the Gauthier Family, ranks within the top fifty, and possibly even higher, among France’s foremost one hundred financial groups.
Now, Louise looked toward the driver and said, "Take us to the Louvre Grand Hotel."
In France, hotel ratings are based on diamonds—two, three, four, five—equivalent to the two- to five-star hotel designations in Huaxia, or even surpassing five-star levels for ultra-luxury deluxe hotels.
Since Ye Qiu was opting for a five-star accommodation, he could proceed directly to his family’s chain, the Louvre Grand Hotel.
This five-star chain hotel network includes locations in France, Europe, and other countries.
The driver headed to one of the Louvre Grand Hotels in Paris.
Upon arrival at the underground parking lot of the Louvre Grand Hotel, the security recognized the Gauthier Family, that is, their own people, and hurried to open the gate.
After stepping out of the car, the driver simply notified the security guard, "Viscountess Louise is in the car."
The guard understood Louise’s status within the Gauthier Family. But after opening the door, to his surprise, he saw not only a casually dressed young man but also a young man of Huaxia descent stepping out of the car, along with Louise and another beautiful young woman.
Louise, accompanied by Ye Qiu and Zhou Wenting, rode the elevator to the front desk of the Louvre Grand Hotel, where Ye Qiu and Zhou Wenting were about to present their passports to register when Louise said, "This hotel belongs to my family’s property, you can just use a card to check-in."
Louise possessed the highest level membership card of the Louvre Grand Hotel. No matter which country she was in, as long as there was a Louvre Grand Hotel, her stay would be complimentary.
Now, when Louise presented the card at the front desk, the staff member was taken aback, not expecting to meet such a high-level hotel administrator.
After Louise booked three luxury suites, the tall and young French beauties working as hotel attendants led Ye Qiu and the others via the elevator up to the thirty-eighth floor.
Stepping out of the elevator, a female attendant led Ye Qiu to a room and said, "Mr. Ye, please come in."
The door was already open, and as Ye Qiu entered, he found that this five-diamond luxury hotel indeed surpassed domestic five-star hotels in terms of opulence.
Ye Qiu had just seen the price here, about a thousand euros per night, which was indeed very expensive, and many people simply couldn’t afford it.
Clearly, the Louvre Grand Hotel was a high-end establishment, targeting the luxury consumer market.
Ye Qiu had initially felt embarrassed about taking advantage of Louise’s kindness after their sudden misadventure, but to his surprise, she showed great enthusiasm.
Now Ye Qiu set down his backpack, went to the balcony, and upon drawing back the curtain, he could already see the Eiffel Tower in the distance.
And many other Parisian buildings.
About thirty minutes in the room, knowing that Zhou Wenting and Louise had finished getting ready, he left his room and indeed saw Louise and Zhou Wenting coming out.
Ye Qiu locked the door, took the room card, and Zhou Wenting came over to ask, "Ye Qiu, where are we going?"
Having arrived in Paris, Zhou Wenting was very familiar with the place, as she had studied in Paris during her high school years and knew many parts of the city well.
"Just wander around, we’ll take a flight back tomorrow morning," Ye Qiu said.
"So, are you planning to buy gifts for your relatives and friends back home?"
"I was thinking of buying some, but I’ve decided against it. There’s nothing you can’t find in our country right now, and it would be difficult to carry, not to mention the hassle at customs."
Ye Qiu had indeed planned to buy some gifts in Paris, including beautiful clothes, dresses, and various pieces of jewelry, to give to the young ladies he knew in Jinling.
In the end, he decided it was too much trouble and a hassle.
"Then where shall we go?"
"Let’s have lunch first, and this afternoon you can choose wherever you’d like to go."
Since absorbing the Soul Consciousness at Jinling Hospital and from Count Charley’s grand castle, Ye Qiu subconsciously knew Paris very well.
However, every city changes rapidly, and even more so for a big city like Paris, the changes were likely very quick.
So, he still wanted to come here and see.
Taking the elevator down from the upper floor to the parking lot, the driver from before was still waiting for the three of them.
Getting into the car, Ye Qiu looked at Louise and Zhou Wenting and asked, "Do you want to have a French gourmet meal, or would you prefer to go to Chinatown for Huaxia cuisine?"
Ye Qiu had not yet been to Paris’s Chinatown, but from the Soul Consciousness he had absorbed, he was aware of some details about it.
Of course, now asking the two ladies was to let them make the decision. He had already had the most authentic French court cuisine at Count Charley’s, and as for Louise, Ye Qiu didn’t know if she ordinarily had Huaxia cuisine.
While Zhou Wenting’s initial intention before coming to France was to take Ye Qiu for a French gourmet meal, having dined at Count Charley’s several times, she knew Ye Qiu might be tired of it by now, and it might be better to go to Chinatown for Huaxia food instead.
"Let’s go to Chinatown to eat," said Zhou Wenting.
Louise had the same idea.
