Huo Shaoheng took Gu Nianzhi to the security check area at the entrance of GUM National Department Store.
It is similar to the security check at Huaxia Empire Railway Station. The main inspection here is all kinds of large and small bags brought in.
Gu Nianzhi only carried a small red Hermès berline bag, which contained her wallet, mobile phone, sunscreen, some change and a pack of disinfectant wipes.
There were many people queuing for security check, and the line was so long that it circled the door several times.
Huo Shaoheng didn't want to wait in line for security check.
He thought for a while, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and called a Swiss bank boss.
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng curiously, not knowing what he said to that person on the phone, because not long after, a tall woman with a very elegant temperament hurriedly walked out of Gum Department Store.
She doesn't look young anymore, but she has such an elegant aura that people don't notice her age at all.
She looked around the door, came to Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi, smiled and said in English: "Are you two friends of Lucas?"
The Swiss banker Huo Shaoheng called was named Lucas.
Huo Shaoheng nodded and replied in English: "Yes, I am Alex, this is Cereus, do you know Lucas?"
The woman waved her hand gracefully, "Here you two are, please. My name is Anna. I used to be Lucas's assistant. But then I got homesick and went back to work in Russia."
She led Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi past the long line of security people and walked towards the side entrance of the department store.
…
Vladimir and the driver's uncle, who were waiting to watch the excitement in the jeep at the door, opened their eyes and opened their mouths wide. They were so shocked by this turn of events that their faces turned pale.
"This, this, this... they just went in like this?! No security check? Or were they picked up by someone?" The driver almost jumped out of his seat with excitement, "That woman looks so familiar!"
Vladimir took out his mobile phone with a stinking face, connected to the KGB intelligence system, and searched for information on the GUM State Department Store.
Soon, he saw the photo of the tall, elegant woman just now.
Anna Ivanova, CEO of GUM State Department Store.
Vladimir gasped and punched the car window, "When did this Huo Shaoheng meet Gum's CEO?!"
…
Standing at the side entrance of GUM National Department Store was a gun-wielding guard, wearing a black beret and black Ray-Ban sunglasses. He was very tall, at least two meters tall, and his arm muscles were bulging hard, like a giant.
Anna showed her business card to the guard.
The guard was so surprised that he quickly stood at attention, saluted, and said, "It turns out to be the CEO. Why did you come down in person? Just call us and we will find someone to invite your two friends in."
Anna nodded reservedly, "You also have your own work, how can I trouble you? Work hard, I'll pay for lunch." As she said that, she gave the guard a lunch coupon, which was a lunch coupon for the management-only restaurant, with the denomination It's big enough to feed four or five people.
The guard, who was as tall as a giant, looked at the lunch ticket with a satisfied smile on his face.
Gu Nianzhi twitched the corner of his mouth.
Huo Shaoheng took out a pre-charged credit card and stuffed it into the guard's hand. He smiled and said, "Then I'll pay for dinner."
When the guard saw the amount marked on the credit card, he immediately stood in awe. He also saluted Huo Shaoheng and said respectfully: "Sir, you're welcome, but we can't accept it..."
Because Anna is watching, the CEO is here, and he dares to accept "bribes", which is simply to lose his job.
But Anna raised her head and said, "Take it, Mr. Alex has good intentions, please remember to take more care of him and his friends."
"Don't worry." The guard immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and muttered. He quickly called four tall and armed guards and said, "These two are distinguished guests of our department store. Their safety today is very important." It’s your responsibility.”
Anna nodded with a smile and explained to Huo Shaoheng: "Our department store treats high value-added customers like this. We have dedicated staff and bodyguards to accompany you all the way. You can shop with confidence and don't have to worry about anything."
That is to say, you don’t have to worry about thieves, you don’t have to worry about carelessly dropping things, and you don’t have to worry about being targeted by certain criminal gangs and becoming the “fat sheep” of these people.
Gu Nianzhi was amazed by such "intimate" service.
She originally thought she was special to them.
But when I entered the store, I saw a lot of people like them. Many of them were Middle Eastern people wearing white or black robes, accompanied by these armed guards.
Of course the oil princes of the Middle East are rich, and of course they care about their lives the most.
Immediately afterwards, another blond and blue-eyed Russian girl shopping guide came over. With a very polite smile, she said to Huo Shaoheng: "I am Lika. I will take you shopping today. If you need anything, please ask us. We will work hard to meet your needs.”
Anna said with satisfaction: "Lika, these two are my good friends. You must treat them well and show the best service quality of our GUM Department Store."
"President, don't worry, I won't let you two down." Lika made a promise to Anna.
Anna is the CEO of this large department store, so it is impossible for her to accompany Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi shopping all the time.
It was already a great favor to come down and lead them in personally.
After Huo Shaoheng shook hands with her and said goodbye, he took Gu Nianzhi's hand and started shopping leisurely in Gum Department Store.
He said to the shopping guide Lika: "We want to buy a coat to keep out the cold, a women's one. What do you recommend?"
Lika asked carefully: "How low of a temperature do you need to withstand? We have various brands and various levels of cold-proof coats here. Although it is almost summer now, some stores still sell winter clothes. I can help Check it out."
Lika took out her handheld tablet and clicked on it.
After a while, she said: "The winter clothes at Burberry are on display for the last week. The season will change next week. Do you want to check it out? For other brands, I have to contact them to see if they still have winter clothes. In stock. In addition, our Russian private label also has some winter clothes with good quality and good designs. However, I think this lady’s figure is too good, so I guess our Russian private label does not have the size suitable for her.”
After saying that, she pursed her lips and smiled.
Gu Nianzhi also understood and thought this shopping guide was really funny.
All she had to say was that the sizes of Russian self-owned brand clothing were relatively large, and Gu Nianzhi's small body might not be able to hold them...
Huo Shaoheng actually didn't have much time to go shopping and buy clothes. He looked at his watch and said, "Then go to Burberry and buy some suitable ones. We are in a hurry."
"Oh, I understand." The shopping guide girl Lika stopped looking for other brands and took them directly to Burberry's flagship store.
Entering Burberry's flagship store, Gu Nianzhi was immediately attracted by Burberry's iconic cashmere plaid scarf.
Huo Shaoheng saw her eyes drifting towards the cashmere plaid scarf, and thought that Gu Nianzhi had many silk scarves, but not many thick cashmere scarves.
Of course, that's because Gu Nianzhi has never been to a really cold place. He has heating at home and at school in the winter, and he has a car to get in and out, and he doesn't need too many thick cashmere scarves.
But now that she has come to Moss City, she may take Gu Nianzhi to travel to various places across the Blue Star in the future. Huo Shaoheng thinks that she should stock up on some thicker cashmere scarves for her.
What if there is a need
You can wear it differently every day throughout the winter.
Besides, the cashmere scarves and even cashmere coats supplied by the Burberry brand in Moss City are thicker than those used in other places. Because it is colder here than other places, it is still worth stocking up on some.
The products sold by a brand must meet the living needs of local residents in order to be sustainable.
"Go and look at the cashmere scarves over there. You'll need them when you go to Siberia." Huo Shaoheng pulled Gu Nianzhi and walked directly towards the counter where the cashmere scarves were placed.
Gu Nianzhi immediately became happy and thought happily that she had been peeking at the cashmere scarf here just now, and Master Huo had seen it...
Therefore, women have different receptiveness to different sweet words from men, but there is only one kind of sweet talk that kills women.
That is, buy, buy, buy.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and looked between the scarves, choosing the look and pattern he liked.
The pink blue plaid with light gray intervals looks clean and refreshing, like the winter sky in Siberia, with light blue clouds that are about to come at any time.
The pink and white plaid scarf with bright red stripes is like a flag fluttering in the heavy snow, with a heroic appearance.
The small light cyan checkerboard has snow-white tassels. When you touch it with your hand, it is as soft as water, but also extremely warm.
There were seven or eight other color combinations. Gu Nianzhi was dazzled by the sight and couldn't help but ask Huo Shaoheng: "Which color is the most beautiful?"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at it and said to the female clerk next to him: "Which ones are this year's new styles?"
"These are all." The female clerk pointed to the cashmere scarves in seven or eight colors in front of her. "Last year's old models have been put into outlets, and the flagship stores are all new models."
Huo Shaoheng nodded, "Wrap these up, two of each."
In this way, if Gu Nianzhi's friends like it, they can give one as a gift.
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
"Why do you need so many?" Gu Nianzhi blushed, grabbing Huo Shaoheng's arm and shaking his head, "One is enough..."
"Buy them all if you like them. It's not like you can't afford them." Huo Shaoheng reminded her, "Why don't you bring gifts for your friends when you go out to play? I think Ma Qiqi will also like these scarves, so just pick some for her."
These words made Gu Nianzhi feel ashamed.
She really didn't think about Ma Qiqi just now.
He was immersed in the joy of vacationing alone with Huo Shaoheng.
She hurriedly said: "Then I will pick some small things." Then she picked some leather gloves, wallets and men's and women's belts, and paid with her own card.
The scarf was paid by Huo Shaoheng.
The clerk happily wrapped all the scarves in two of each style and followed Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng took Gu Nianzhi to see the coat again.
He immediately noticed a maroon sheep wool long coat. It was a very slim-fitting military coat style, reaching to the knees. The quality of the sheep wool inside was very high, and it was as warm as a natural gas thermostat.
Not to mention zero degrees, even minus 50 degrees.
The coat also has a wide military belt.
Gu Nianzhi came out of the fitting room dressed in clothes. Her waist was slimmed down, her waist was high, her chest was high, her hair was shawl-length, and her beauty had a hint of military coolness and asceticism.
Huo Shaoheng's heart felt hot when he saw it, and some unreliable scenes passed through his mind...
For example, Gu Nianzhi was lying on the bed wearing this coat, only wearing this coat. When he opened the coat, there was nothing inside...
