After the yacht returned to a private yacht dock in Sydney, before the boat could stop, the champagne girl jumped onto the shore with cheers. With her bare white feet, she jumped: "The world! I'm here! The world! I'm here!" Coming! Sydney!! I’m coming!!”
Chen Xiao looked at her and even felt that the female owner of the inn had eyes full of little stars.
Lao Tian got off the boat with a tired look on his face - for a martial arts master like him, he wouldn't feel tired even if he didn't sleep for three to five days, let alone driving a yacht for a day and a night. However, along the way, his nerves were tortured by the champagne. Almost collapsed.
Someone was arranged to unload the cargo on the ship - some of the equipment purchased this time and the remaining two barrels of cell repair solution also need to be transported back to the country - air transport is more difficult, after all, aircraft security inspection is too troublesome.
But Lao Tian had his own way. He had his own channels. After getting off the ship, he left immediately, saying that he was going to contact a shipping company that had always had a close relationship with them. But seeing him slip away as if running away, Chen Xiao saw at a glance that this old guy was making excuses, deliberately avoided it, and threw the champagne to Chen Xiao alone...
"Let's... go back to the hotel and rest." Chen Xiao glanced at this "famous girl".
"Rest?!" Champagne's big, beautiful eyes widened: "Are you kidding me! Rest? When can't I rest? I finally got out! How can I waste such a good time on boring things like sleeping? Up?! Let’s go shopping! Let’s go shopping!”
"But, we are all tired, we should go back to sleep first." Chen Xiao wanted to refuse.
"What's the point of sleeping!" Champagne shook his little head again and again: "Well, you go shopping with me, and then... after you get back to the hotel, I can sleep with you however you want, okay?"
She was probably too excited and didn't notice that she had a very ambiguous speech problem when she said this sentence, but Chen Xiao blushed slightly.
Before she could say anything, Champagne had already jumped all the way out of the pier.
"Wow! Chen Xiao, look! That's a supermarket!! Wow, look! That's the public bus stop!! Wow! Look! A Maserati drove past just now!! Wow! Another one passed by! car!"
This is a private yacht marina, so naturally there are many rich people, so there are also many luxury cars.
Champagne is simply a curious baby, seemingly interested in everything in the world.
The attention of many people around has been attracted by this screaming girl - Champagne was originally a complete little beauty, and she already attracted the attention of men, and now she is jumping around like a madman...
Chen Xiao quickly went up to hold Champagne's hand with one hand, and covered her mouth with the other hand, pleading: "Please, if you keep shouting like that, others will think you are crazy! What if someone calls the police?" That’s trouble! Don’t forget, you have no identification! No visa or passport or anything like that!”
Champagne's mood was slightly controlled, but as the two of them walked on the street, she would still look around and ask Chen Xiao about every "interesting" thing she saw.
Fortunately... Chen Xiao had already been trained once at home by the "curious baby" Yaya. From the perspective of ignorance, Champagne and Yaya have their own merits. Chen Xiao has been trained to have a lot of patience. After seeing tricks along the way, he finally coaxed Champagne into submission.
Finally, at a McDonald's dessert station, after spending money to buy a cone for champagne, I finally succeeded in gagging this girl.
"Where do you want to go?" Chen Xiao asked cautiously as he watched Champagne's mood stabilize.
"Pitt Street Mall!" Champagne's face suddenly showed a pious expression like a religious fanatic's pilgrimage, and he said quickly: "Pitt Street Mall! One of the five major fashion shopping destinations in the world! It is close to New York's Fifth Avenue and Paris. The Champs Elysées, Hong Kong's Causeway Bay and London's Oxford Street are collectively known as the world's top five "pilgrimage destinations" for famous brands!
Pitt Street Mall
Chen Xiao was stunned.
Why didn't I know there was a place like this in Sydney
Glancing at the champagne - isn't this her first time out of the island? How do you know this kind of place
"Um... I don't know the road." Chen Xiao replied sheepishly.
"It's very simple!" Champagne snapped his fingers excitedly and said quickly: "Pitt Street Shopping Center is located between King Street and Market Street in the center of Sydney. You can take the subway from the City Hall ( Get off at Town Hall Station or St James Station and walk one block to get there! Or you can also take a bus or tram!”
“All large shopping malls on Special Street are connected to each other by above-ground or underground passages, and there are long connecting arcades outside all shops. Even on rainy days, customers can browse one shop after another leisurely. "
"Chanel, Christian Dior, Gi, Louis Vuitton, Armani, almost all the world's top brands are available there! New products are launched almost at the same time as in European and American countries. However, because Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, the seasons are opposite to those in the northern hemisphere, so there are many fresh products in the store Stylish clothing may not be immediately available locally - well, that's a shame."
"Also... the general business hours of the shops there are from 9 am to 5 pm every Monday to Friday, and most shops will extend to 9 pm on Thursdays. On Saturdays, they usually close at 4 pm, and on weekends they close at 4 pm. Some stores will be open all day."
With that said, Champagne grabbed Chen Xiao's arm, glanced at the time on the watch on Chen Xiao's wrist, and said quickly: "We have to go quickly! Hurry up!"
…
... Chen Xiao was completely dumbfounded next to him!
He swallowed hard and looked at the treasures of champagne next to him.
"Is this really your first time going out?"
"Here!" Champagne pointed at his head and smiled mischievously: "Although I don't go out, I have memorized all the fashion magazines I can see! I can tell you responsibly that almost all I know all the information about famous brand fashion! I know almost all the famous fashion shopping malls in the world!"
She raised her arms with all her strength and announced loudly: "Please call me a new name—Fashion Humanoid GPS!"
It seems that when it comes to fashion shopping, Champagne is as full of power as a wind-up alarm clock, and continues to shout: "In addition to Pitt Mall, I also want to go to the Queen Victoria Building, which is the Queen Victoria Building!! This is... The world's fashion design master Pierre Cardin praised it as "the most beautiful shopping mall in the world"!! The building was built in 1898, and it is also a classic Byzantine architectural style... "
"Stop!! STOP!!!! Stop!!!"
Chen Xiao stopped drinking and finally succeeded in shutting up Champagne.
I looked at the empty cone in my champagne hand...
"Well, let me buy you another ice cream..."
Chen Xiao was very suspicious that this beautiful girl's small head was probably filled with all the world's famous brands...
…
Finally, Chen Xiao, a normal person, was led by Champagne, a hermit, to the destination of their trip: Pitt Street Shopping Center.
Unfortunately, this shopping experience was not pleasant.
Here's what happened: In the PRADA store, Champagne almost went crazy and collected several exquisite small leather bags in one breath, screaming and cheering. The shopping guides around him were stunned by this generous luxury customer...
But after the champagne swept away almost all the important targets in one breath, he turned his head and looked at Chen Xiao.
"What?" Chen Xiao pretended to be stupid.
"Pay?" Champagne asked strangely.
Chen Xiao sighed, then wiped his hands into his pockets, and pulled out the two pockets - obviously, they were bare.
"I have no money. I only have one hundred Australian dollars left, which is enough for us to take the car back to the hotel." Chen Xiao answered honestly.
"..." Champagne glared at Chen Xiao.
A few seconds later, she began to reprimand Chen Xiao: "What's the matter with you? As a gentleman, you accompany a beautiful woman to go shopping, and you say you have no money? How can you do this! It's so ungraceful and uneducated!" !”
"I didn't want to come. You forced me to come." Chen Xiao replied.
“…”
Seeing the shopping guide put all his trophies back on the shelves with an awkward smile, Champagne had a painful expression on his face, as if he was parting from life or death between lovers...
After a few seconds, Champagne took a deep breath and looked solemn, as if he had made some huge decision.
He walked to Chen Xiao, took his hand and quickly walked out of the store to a remote corner.
"You have a hundred Australian dollars, don't you? Bring it here." She held out her hand.
"But... this is our fare. You don't want to walk back to the hotel, do you?"
"Bring it here!" Champagne insisted, "I'm just using it and I'll give it back to you right away!"
Chen Xiao thought for a while, then took out the last Australian dollar note with a face value of one hundred and handed it to her.
Champagne sighed and muttered: "Mom said I'm not allowed to do this, but there's nothing I can do about it."
She held an Australian dollar with a face value of one hundred dollars in one hand, and stared at the banknote, as if something strange flashed in her eyes...
Chen Xiao next to him originally looked curious, but his eyes immediately widened! !
Because, he clearly saw that a banknote in Champagne's hand suddenly...
One becomes two! Two cards become four! Four cards become eight! Eight pictures become sixteen…
Finally, Champagne held a thick stack of banknotes in his hands, but his eyes that were originally full of energy dimmed, and his eyes seemed very tired...
"This... is this your superpower?" Chen Xiao opened his mouth.
"Copy!" Champagne smiled tiredly, and his voice became much softer. He glanced at the banknotes in his arms: "It should be quite a lot, right? It's enough to buy the white bag I just saw."
Chen Xiao looked shocked. He took some banknotes, squeezed them in his hands, and touched them...
real
No, or is it the same as the real thing
Watermarks, anti-counterfeiting marks... are all the same as the real thing
"Now, can I buy something?" Champagne smiled happily.
But when Chen Xiao looked at the banknotes in his hand, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
"Still... no." Chen Xiao swallowed, looking at Champagne's excited face, he couldn't bear to hit her.
"Why! I guarantee that what I copy will be absolutely the same as the real thing! There won't be the slightest difference! Not at all!" Champagne shouted dissatisfied.
"Because they are completely consistent..." Chen Xiao took out two banknotes and unfolded them: "Do you see any problem?"
"… What?"
"Encoding!" Chen Xiao couldn't laugh or cry: "The encodings of the banknotes in the things you copied are exactly the same! A bunch of banknotes all have the same encoding, everyone can tell that there is something wrong!"
Champagne: “…”
Finally, Champagne angrily stuffed a bunch of bills into the trash can next to him. Chen Xiao was startled: "Don't! You are throwing it around like this. It will be troublesome if someone picks it up..."
"Don't worry." Champagne smiled bitterly: "I forgot to tell you, my copying ability is time-sensitive. For example, this pile of banknotes will all disappear in about two hours..."
"...you...what else can you copy?"
"Anything." Champagne shook his head: "Except for living objects, that is to say, animals, plants, insects, etc. are not allowed, but other dead objects are OK. According to my current ability, there is an upper limit on the volume and density of replication. The more complex something is, the shorter the timeliness of copying it.”
After saying that, she glanced at Chen Xiao and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't copy another you. I don't have that ability."
All the "counterfeit money" was thrown into the trash can, and Champagne walked out in frustration.
"Wait a moment."
Chen Xiao suddenly turned around and ran into the store. After a while, he ran out and came to Champagne. He opened his palm and found a delicate small keychain inside.
"Although it's not your favorite leather bag, this keychain is also from PRADA." Chen Xiao scratched the back of his head: "This is not a product. I just noticed that it is a gift from them. I just went in to discuss with them and spent some money. Bought one."
Champagne stared at the key marked with the PRADA brand in Chen Xiao's hand. He was stunned for a while, and then suddenly screamed, jumped three feet high, and tightly hugged Chen Xiao's neck with both hands. Before Chen Xiao could react, he kissed him hard on the cheek.
"That's great!" Champagne's face was full of excitement. He grabbed the keychain and kissed Chen Xiao on the face: "Chen Xiao! You are the best person in the world!"
Chen Xiao awkwardly covered the cheek that had been kissed by the champagne, smiled coquettishly, and his handsome face turned a little red.
"This is the first brand-name gift I have received! I will definitely try to keep it well!"
"Uh... Actually, there is another bad news." Chen Xiao said with a smile.
"What?"
"This thing cost us the last hundred Australian dollars we have left." Chen Xiao sighed: "So, we have to walk back to the hotel now... I have calculated that it is about six blocks from here, if we walk faster , we should be able to go back before dark—but we will definitely be late for dinner.”
As soon as they finished speaking, the stomachs of the two young men immediately made uncooperative growling sounds.
Both of them... were hungry.
However, the faces of the two young men were still filled with smiles.
