Chapter 951: Chapter 456: Lin Baici Spending Money Like Water_2
Xia Hongyao was still in her sportswear, nothing special, but she was pretty, with a super big bear, and most importantly, when she looked at products, she didn’t glance at the price tags first, nor did she reveal any sense of shock about how expensive the items were, as if she couldn’t afford them.
Several sales associates immediately came trotting over, surrounding the three of them.
This was a big customer.
Yi Jisheng was ugly, and he was also carrying a doll that was one meter and sixty centimeters tall—the one from Monster Apartment.
With that look, not just tourists, but even dogs passing by would disdain it with a glance.
Everyone respects your XP, but being so blatantly conspicuous isn’t really appropriate, is it?
"Sir, what do you need?"
A saleslady came over to greet Lin Baici.
"Cosmetics!"
Lin Baici was stressed out, regardless of Yi Jisheng’s lack of proficiency; if someone were to take a photo now and it got posted online, it might make the headlines the next day, directly leading to social death.
The female sales associate was very skilled at her job, reeling off a long spiel, but Lin Baici didn’t understand a word.
"Just tell me, which one is the most expensive here?"
Lin Baici pinched the bridge of his nose.
The saleslady’s eyes lit up—ah, she hadn’t expected this young man to not only have good looks but also have money in his pocket!
"The most expensive item we have is this set of Weather pills—eye cream, toner, concealer, facial cleanser... everything is included. There’s a discount right now, it’s only 3299, and if you spend over ten thousand, you can get an additional 20% off!"
The voice of the sales associate sweetened by ten decibels.
"Give me five, ten sets!"
Lin Baici decided to buy more so that he wouldn’t have to worry about preparing gifts in the future.
The sales associate was even more pleased upon hearing this number.
"Will you be paying by card or in cash?"
After asking, the sales associate silently cursed herself for being an idiot—who would carry that much cash to buy so many things?
Some tourists, when traveling abroad and not using up all their exchanged foreign currency, usually spend it all at the airport because once back home, it can’t be used, and exchanging it back to the local currency is not only troublesome but also involves exchange rate losses.
"By card!"
After Lin Baici paid, his hands quickly filled with five big bags.
This made him a bit bewildered; having gotten used to the convenience of the Black Tripod Bowl, he rarely had to worry about having too many items, but he definitely couldn’t use it here.
"Sir, do you need anything else?"
The sales associate sought to bring in business for her bestie and colleague: "Would you like to take a look at some bags? We have all the newest models from Chanel here!"
Bags were much more expensive than cosmetics, but the sales associate felt that Lin Baici could afford them.
Lin Baici looked up, saw Hua Yueyu and the rest shopping, and called out, "Red Medicine, I’m going to buy some bags, contact me by phone later!"
He figured he should buy several bags, to give to the counselor and Mom, and also for other girls’ birthdays in the future, saving the headache of what gift to buy later on.
"Several?"
The sales associate’s eyes shone brighter upon hearing this: "Sir, can I add you on WeChat? It would be convenient for me to provide you with after-sales service."
"You’re Korean, right?"
The subtext of Lin Baici’s words was simple—Koreans don’t use WeChat.
"But most of our clients are from the Nine States!"
The sales associate smiled. "If you come to Hancheng again, you can tell me in advance, and I can take you to some local secrets for dining and entertainment!"
"Thanks, but no need!"
Lin Baici refused, as he didn’t need any other women with Jin Yingzhen around.
The sales associate’s face flashed with disappointment, but she quickly smiled again and led Lin Baici to buy bags.
All that talk about craftsmanship, materials—it was all going over Lin Baici’s head: "Just give me ten of the most classic model!"
"Sir, you have a good eye. This model isn’t the most expensive, but it absolutely holds its value the best!"
The bestie of the sales associate, flattered, was over the moon.
Ten of them—that means a hefty commission. Definitely going to treat her friend to a big meal.
Lin Baici smiled politely, paid with his card, and then he had ten more big bags on him.
One bag was over 60 thousand, ten was over 700 thousand. Compared to the makeup he had just bought, those seemed like mere add-ons.
"Sir, what gate will you be waiting at? I can help you carry them over!"
The sales associate was very eager to assist.
"No need, I can carry them myself!"
Lin Baici felt embarrassed to impose on her and besides, he didn’t even know which gate he’d be boarding at. Moreover, having bought so many things, he felt it was enough and it was time to take a break.
Watching Lin Baici leave, the bestie nudged the sales associate’s arm: "It’s rare to see a wealthy and handsome guy like that. Did you get his contact info?"
"No."
The sales associate sighed.
"Did he not understand your hint?"
Bestie guessed.
The term "paid company" isn’t just about accompanying someone for fun, it could go a step further.
"..."
The female sales associate shook her head.
"Really, such high standards?"
The bestie was surprised, the female sales associate actually looked alright, put on some makeup and she’d rate a seven out of ten.
After thinking about the three girls who were with Lin Baici, the sales associate felt it was only right for Lin Baici to have high standards.
Just as Lin Baici and Yi Jisheng had found a place to sit down, a young woman, around twenty-one or twenty-two, approached them.
"Handsome guy, are you buying all these things for yourself, or as gifts?"
Lin Baici glanced at the girl but didn’t answer.
"Wow, the cool and aloof type, huh!"
The girl wasn’t put off by the rejection and sat down with a chuckle, "Handsome guy, I work in purchasing too. I just wanted to ask, you’re buying so much stuff, it’s beyond the limit, how are you going to take it on the plane?"
The girl’s name was Zhao Qian. She graduated from college last year and hadn’t found a job yet. Seeing that purchasing was popular on social media, she took advantage of the winter break to visit Goryeo and take some orders by the way.
"Excess?"
Lin Baici was puzzled.
"What? You’re doing purchasing without even knowing this?"
Zhao Qian was speechless, "Every country has regulations for what travelers can bring in. For example, in the Nine States, a person can only bring two cartons of cigarettes and one bottle of wine. As for other stuff, the total value also can’t exceed a certain amount!"
Zhao Qian looked at the large LOGOs on Lin Baici’s bags, "If you bring one or two, discard the boxes, maybe you could sneak them through, but doing it like this... do you think customs are blind?"
"They will confiscate them, honey!"
Zhao Qian counted on her fingers, "You’ll have to pay duties and fines, and when you add it up, it’s more expensive than buying domestically!"
"..."
This was Lin Baici’s first time abroad, how could he have known this?
Seeing Lin Baici’s expression, Zhao Qian thought, wow, a handsome face for nothing, but nothing much upstairs. If you want to be in purchasing, at least do your homework on the basics, right?
"Of course, unless you’re on a private jet, then ignore what I said!"
Zhao Qian laughed heartily, glancing at Lin Baici’s attire and then at Yi Jisheng, who was holding a doll without any fear of social suicide.
The clothes the two were wearing weren’t cheap, but they certainly weren’t high-end.
Lin Baici took out his phone and called Xia Hongyao to get the details.
"What? Customs? Excess?"
"Don’t worry, buy as much as you want!"
"We’re on a private jet, no one dares to check!"
Xia Hongyao explained, loud enough to ensure Lin Baici could hear clearly.
Zhao Qian heard it too and stared at Lin Baici with her mouth agape.
Who is this guy in front of her?
A private jet?
That’s pretty much the same thing, right?
No, wait, it’s different. Isn’t it something like those used by certain country’s dignitaries for state visits, that’s called a private jet?
Lin Baici hung up the phone, breathing a sigh of relief, and then nodded at Zhao Qian, "Thank you!"
After speaking, Lin Baici picked up his things and moved away with Yi Jisheng.
From Zhao Qian’s expression, Lin Baici gathered she might have overheard some of Xia Hongyao’s phrases, so he didn’t want to stay there anymore.
Zhao Qian watched Lin Baici leave and instinctively wanted to follow, but after taking a step, she stopped herself.
To be honest, she was panicked and didn’t dare to follow!
That was someone out of her league.
Zhao Qian thought Lin Baici was just another purchaser, wanting to ask if he had any special channels and even considered asking to work with him, but what she heard was frightening.
Lin Baici and Yi Jisheng found a new place to sit and after waiting for more than twenty minutes, Gu Qingqiu and her group still hadn’t shown up.
"You watch our things, I’ll go buy two bottles of water!"
Lin Baici stood up, "What do you want to drink?"
"I’m not thirsty!"
Yi Jisheng, hugging the doll, said, "Get a bottle of juice for my girlfriend!"
Lin Baici didn’t ask how a silicone doll could have a digestive system to drink anything.
Just buy it!
But that thing is a Taboo thing, who knows, maybe it really can drink!
Lin Baici roamed around, bought the stuff, and as he was coming back, suddenly, someone called his name.
"Lin Baici?"
