Let's Try It

Seaside City was located in Shencheng Bay, across the sea from Hong Kong, and there were customs ports connecting them. This street was filled with top-tier office buildings, business centers, shopping centers, cultural venues, high-end apartments, and five-star hotels.

It was the most prosperous commercial area in Nanshan.

It took Cao Su more than 40 minutes to get here by taxi. The fare was 112 yuan. Before today, this was an unimaginable expense for him. Usually, he would take the bus or subway.

Cao Su was unfamiliar with luxury goods. He had only heard of their names and had never used them before. Therefore, after arriving at Seaside City, he wandered around casually, completely depending on fate.

He first bought a P6 that was released in June at the Huawei store on the first floor. It cost less than 3,000 yuan and was known as the world's thinnest smartphone.

At present, domestic mobile phones only penetrated the mid-tier market. Foreign brands dominated the flagship market. Presently, Samsung was the king of the global mobile phone market.

After getting his hands on a domestic phone, Cao Su went to the Apple store right across the street and bought a top-notch black iPhone 5. The 64GB version was priced at 6888 yuan. The iPhone's iOS operating system was as smooth as silk.

He bought two sets of casual wear from Connelly, paired with shoes and belts, and spent a total of 183,000 yuan. At his age, he wasn't suited to wear the fashion brand HBA, which had become popular last year.

When he passed by an LV store, he went in and bought a wallet, a men's business bag, and a casual backpack. He spent 230,000. He swiped his card and put all his belongings and old clothes into his backpack.

In terms of men's bags alone, the main sales range of an LV item was around 20,000 to 30,000. It was a little expensive to spend over 200,000 yuan on three bags.

However, he was now rich, so why would he care about value for money? It was fine as long as they looked good and felt comfortable.

When he came out, he saw a watch shop. Cao Su went in to buy a watch. This store sold the top-notch watch brand, Vacheron Constantin.

There was no provocation from the legendary touts, no rudeness from the salespeople. Everything was peaceful. After a brief chat, the female salesperson brought Cao Su to the counter and recommended," Sir, this Heritage series features a classic large analog style, going at 224,000 yuan. It's very suitable for men who have not been in contact with watches for a long time. Moreover, we carry ready stock. There will be no waiting involved. You can buy it immediately."

Cao Su did not speak. He felt that this price was a little too low. He looked at the Heritage series watches on the counter and saw a watch with a platinum case. There were also four small dial plates on the milky white dial plate. The week, the month, the perpetual calendar, and the phase of the moon.

"This one!"

The female salesperson praised, "Sir, you have a good eye. This is one of the most popular models in our Vacheron Constantin Heritage series: 43175/000P-B190. We are selling this at 840,000 yuan.

It was designed with a legacy motif: Simple lines, smooth contours, delicate ladder-shaped hour scales, stick-shaped hands, a slightly arched curved dial design, and a minute scale inlaid with a golden bead.

"41 mm diameter, 40 hours power reserve. Not only does it display the classic design elements of Vacheron Constantin, but it also reveals great elegance. It's a stylish classic."

Cao Su smiled and did not interrupt the saleswoman. Sometimes listening was a form of courtesy, even if you didn't care. When she took out her watch and put it on his wrist, he nodded in satisfaction. "I'll pay by card!"

The saleswoman took Cao Su's ordinary bank card and completed the transaction on the POS machine with a smile on her face. Then, she handed the bank card back to Cao Su. "Sir, can I add you on WeChat? If you have any after-sales questions in the future, you can contact me at any time. 24-hour standby."

Cao Su could not help but laugh. Was this for real? Instead of the legendary face-slapping, there was the legendary treatment of a beautiful woman asking for a date!

It could only be said that money was indeed one of the core competitive factors for men.

"No need to add me on WeChat," Cao Su declined politely. "I'll call your store if there's a problem with the after-sales service. The salesperson's beauty was above average, and he would give her a score of 85 over a hundred. She was much meeker than the gentle and charming young woman Li Ruoyu that he saw during lunch.

He had no interest in flirting with her.

'I've indeed become arrogant. If a beautiful girl with such a score had asked for this in the past, I would definitely oblige: Not every rose had thorns on them.'

After completing the "equipment change," Cao Su checked in at the five-star Kempinski Hotel.

When he left the company, although he had the key to the farmer's house he had rented in Dachong, it didn't mean that he had to go back and stay there tonight.

Mid-August was not the peak season for tourism and meetings in Shencheng, so the five-star hotels in Seaside City did not have a high check-in rate. The presidential suite of the Kempinski Hotel was still empty.

Cao Su's reservation came up to 36000 yuan a night, and he had to extend his stay for ten days. The hotel's manager came over to personally apply for the highest-level membership card for him: The Black Gold Card.

Kempinski's membership system was: Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Black Gold. One of the conditions to apply for a black gold card was to stay for 30 nights or spend a minimum of 15,000 US dollars.

The benefits of the black gold card included point redemption, free room upgrades, early check-in, hotel credit cards, and more.

Cao Su was too lazy to listen to the lobby manager's detailed introduction. He carried a backpack and a briefcase in his left hand. Accompanied by the waiter, he walked into the special elevator of the presidential suite.

A moment later, the elevator arrived at the presidential suite on the 27th floor of the hotel. At the entrance of the elevator was a fair and beautiful woman with a curvy figure, wearing a light blue open-collar suit. She was elegant and dignified as she waited with two other servers.

She was about thirty years old, and her hair was tied up in a bun. Her face was elegant, and she bowed elegantly. "Welcome. Hello, Mr. Cao. I'm your personal attendant, Xia Ya. I'll be at your service for the next ten days."

What a beauty. Her appearance and figure were both 90+ points.

She was nothing short of eye candy.

Cao Su nodded slightly at her and felt a little strange. Generally speaking, the personal attendant of a five-star hotel would be good-looking, but not at Xia Ya's level. However, he did not ask her. There was still a long way to go.

He was escorted to the presidential suite by the ladies. After putting the things down, Cao Su asked Xia Ya, his personal attendant, to help him withdraw some cash from the bank. He chose a bottle of champagne from the wine cabinet in the small bar in the suite.

Flower of Paris. The price of the bottle was written on the wine list on the side: 8828 yuan.

Cao Su opened the bottle and poured the wine out.

Holding a slender champagne glass, he sat comfortably in front of the French window in the living room and rested his feet. Looking at the boundless sea, blue sky, and white clouds, Cao Su took a sip of wine contentedly and sighed in his heart.

'No wonder so many people like to shop! This kind of shopping that kept spending money without looking at the price is indeed very satisfying! There is an addiction to this wanton flaunting and squandering.'

Cao Su sipped his wine and admired the beautiful scenery outside the French windows.

In the afternoon, the shadows of the skyscrapers were reflected on the streets of the seaside avenue. The light and shadow were mottled, and pedestrians and cars were passing by. The sea in the distance was as blue as a mirror, and golden light shone on the surface of the water!

Such a beautiful scene!

He had been in Shencheng for so many years, and he had been to Shencheng Bay before. The equipment in the cinema was nothing short of luxurious. It was really amazing to watch Avatar with 3D glasses. However, when he looked at the afternoon sun, he did not feel so emotional.

Only with money and leisure could one have the mood to discover beauty.

[The host is immersed in emotions and has triggered a random mission: Sign in.]

[Mission: Sign in immediately. Reward: System Store refreshed.]

Cao Su found the sign-in tab in the upper left corner of the system interface in his mind. After signing in, he immediately received a notification.

[The System Store has been refreshed.]

Cao Su opened the System Store. A new [Health Detector] was refreshed inside, priced at 30,000 yuan.

Cao Su was restricted from purchasing goods in the system store with his initial 1,000,000,000. He had worked for so many years to support his family's expenses, so he didn't have much savings on him. He used the balance on a few bank cards to buy it.

A 30-year-old man with just over 30,000 in savings was actually a sad story.

As he was reading the user manual, his sister Cao Yun called. "Brother, I just talked to Mom on the phone. Did you really make money from mobile game art design?"

The corners of Cao Su's mouth curled up slightly as he said, "Little Yun, you're still so smart! The inside story was complicated and long. You just need to know that my money is legal. Have you received the 100,000 yuan I transferred to you?"

The Qian Province was an underdeveloped area. He had a younger brother and sister. After graduating from high school, his younger brother worked in Gusu, southern Sichuan, and the western region. His younger sister, Cao Yun, studied at Beijing General University. She would be in her third year in September.

"Yes," Cao Yun replied.

Cao Su: "Xiaoyun, university is the best time of your life. I'll pay for your tuition and living expenses in the future. You don't have to work so many jobs anymore. Set aside time to enrich yourself, enjoy life, and live up to your youth."

The days of hardship are over! He was a little ashamed that he had not been able to rely on his own efforts to make this day come sooner. However, with the help of the system, he was able to mend this regret at this time, which was also a good thing.

Cao Yun chuckled." Brother, you're becoming more and more cultured after you succeeded!" Are you now winning in life and have become a super-rich second-generation heir? So you can afford two girls by your side, one for breakfast, and one for dinner?"

"Don't be cheeky!" Cao Su laughed. I'll go to the capital to see you in a while."

After hanging up the phone, Cao Su raised his head and drank up the last mouthful of champagne in his glass. He changed his clothes and took his time to splurge. You couldn't become fat with just one bite! The next thing to do was to start a business.

It was inaccurate to say that he was starting a business.

A tycoon didn't start a business. A tycoon only threw money! What he actually wanted was the social influence and power that a successful career would bring.

A "Master Lou" who collected rent in Shencheng and a boss who had tens of thousands of employees. The former might earn more every year, but how could the status of the two be mentioned in the same breath?

How could a real man live under the shadow of others for a long time?

There were two things he had to do first. First, register the company. Second, find a headhunter to hire assistants and executives to develop the company's business.

On the way to Seaside City, he called the agency to confirm the registration of the company.

It was very convenient to register a company now. You can register your company in Hong Kong or Shencheng. It was done in a week, and the intermediary fee was less than 1000 yuan. Moreover, the registered capital does not need to be paid in.

But it was expensive to raise a company! Even if it was a shell company, it would cost three to five thousand yuan a year. Therefore, ordinary people rarely went to raise a company to play.

Cao Su took out his phone and called the headhunting company.
