Chapter 642: Walton’s Reception

"What? Can't you sleep?" Looking at Cheryl Li sitting on the balcony, Jiang Hai walked over with two bottles of water. After handing her one bottle, he asked her and sat down at the same time. Opposite her. 【Fast update&nbp;&nbp;Please search】

Today Cheryl lived in Jiang Hai's manor, but she did not go to live in Jiang Hai's room. After all, this was not very good, and the two were not that familiar, and there was no Pula Walton here. In the meantime, the relationship between the two was not particularly close, so she stayed in the guest room. It was already two o'clock in the morning. Jiang Hai was a little thirsty after sleeping, so he got up to look for water.

But it was a pity that he had run out of water in his room, so he went downstairs to get water and took two bottles. When he happened to come back, he saw Cheryl sitting on the balcony on the second floor. Look at the moon outside.

Jiang Hai's balcony is a semi-enclosed one. The entire balcony is made of glass. However, in the summer, the glass can be raised to become a completely open-air balcony. In the winter, the glass can be lowered. But don't delay looking outside.

So in winter, Jiang Hai also likes to sit here and look out, and he can also sit here and watch the stars at night.

"I can't sleep a little." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Cheryl Li took the water handed over by Jiang Hai, then smiled reluctantly, opened it, took a sip, and then looked at it in a daze. Outside.

"Actually, you don't have to worry too much, just trust me." Looking at her look, it goes without saying that she is worried about Pulau Walton, but with Jiang Hai here, he will not let Pupu do anything. Something happened to La-Walton.

"Well, I believe in you, we all believe in you, but it is still necessary to have some worries, just like a family member undergoing a minor operation. Although I know that the success rate of this operation is very high, but That’s your own family, it’s weird if you don’t worry.” After hearing Jiang Hai’s words, Cheryl pursed her lips and said seriously, but believing that Jiang Hai and not worried are actually two different things. After hearing her words, Jiang Hai Hai also smiled. It was a good thing that Pula Walton had these girlfriends.

"Don't worry, stay here. I promise to bring Pula Walton back to you intact." Standing up, Jiang Hai patted Cheryl on the shoulder, and then said seriously, he had just Talk to Cheryl.

This time at the reception, only Jiang Hai went by himself, and Cheryl stayed in the manor. If the matter could not be reached, Jiang Hai and Pula Walton might still be able to run away, but if there were additional A Cheryl would probably be in trouble.

"I understand, you'd better go to bed quickly." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Cheryl looked at Jiang Hai gratefully. Tomorrow, Jiang Hai would go to New York, so she had to think about Jiang Hai. .

After taking a look at Cheryl Li, Jiang Hai waved and walked into his room...

He didn't know what time Cheryl went to bed, and when he went to breakfast the next morning, she wasn't there.

Jiang Hai told Darlene and the others about this matter while having breakfast. Pula Walton, Darlene and Marianne had the impression that she was a somewhat weird big sister, but she gave him They learned a lot of things.

As for Bernice, Xiaoya and Azalina, they didn’t know who this person was, but since he was Jiang Hai’s consignee, it was inevitable that Jiang Hai would help. So after breakfast, Jiang Hai Then he drove away with his own battle shield.

We went straight to the Hilton Hotel in New York, because tomorrow is the party time for the Walton family, so in order to entertain the people who come from all over the world these days, it is impossible for everyone to come at the right time. There are always some who come. It was early, so the Walton family had already opened rooms for these people to rest in the hotel according to their specifications.

According to information from the Walton family, Jiang Hai is 27 years old and has a net worth of about US$2 billion. Last year, he brought in US$137,618,290 to Wal-Mart’s Sam’s Club. Although Mei Dao's pre-tax profit is not the top VIP partner, it is still at the top VIP partner level, after Jiang Hai showed his driver's license and the invitation card.

He got the key to a top-level suite. Although it was not a presidential suite, it was still a top-level suite. There were three rooms in a suite, a small room, a large living room, a study room and a master bedroom.

Of course, when people of Jiang Hai's level come here, they must bring bodyguards. That small room is for bodyguards to live in. However, because Jiang Hai's purpose of coming here this time is not so pure, he did not bring Ah Come Zarina.

After entering the suite, Jiang Hai looked around and liked it quite a bit. The window in the master bedroom was a single-sided window. You could look out from the inside, but you couldn't see inside from the outside, but the light transmittance was very good. It's quite good, just like ordinary glass.

This would make him feel much more comfortable. After taking a brief rest in the room, Jiang Hai went to the cafeteria downstairs for lunch. After lunch, he went to Fifth Avenue. I'm going to buy a set of clothes there.

Jiang Hai was used to being casual. When he went to cocktail parties, banquets, etc., he always wore his expensive outdoor sportswear. His set of clothes was actually no cheaper than a suit. But it does look like it’s not up to standard.

But every time someone else invites him, they have to tolerate whatever he wears. Fortunately, he doesn't often attend these events, but tonight is different. If he was just invited to the dinner, He might as well wear this one.

He was taking Pula Walton away today, so he had to dress more formally, right?

So he had a rare opportunity to buy a suit. Jiang Hai had worn a suit twice in his life. The first time was when he got married. After he used his mother to complete the matter, he had more than 3,000 yuan left. He spent money to buy a suit, but he only wore it once. After they got married, it hung in his and Qi Li's new home. But when he left, he deliberately took the suit with him. Now he hangs it At his home in Bingcheng, he definitely wasn't going to wear it anymore.

There is also a suit that Qi Li bought for him during the Chinese New Year last year. He only wore it once and then hung it up at Bingcheng’s house. Other than that, he has no suits. Today’s suit, I guess so too.

Originally, according to his idea, it would be good to buy a set worth about a thousand dollars, but after calling Moses Adams, he persuaded himself to buy a good set. First, because Jiang Hai was not short of money, and secondly, he persuaded himself to buy a good set. It's because Jiang Hai is considered a decent person now, and he should have a suit at home. He can't just buy suits wherever he goes in the future.

Besides, going to a party with the Waltons and wearing a suit worth $1,000 is indeed a bit too cheap.

So Jiang Hai, tricked by Moses Adams, went to a shop called Alexander Amoso's custom-made suits on Fifth Avenue. As soon as he walked in, an old man looked at Jiang Hai and hesitated. , stood up.

"Sir, do you need any help?" Looking at Jiang Hai, the old man looked at him curiously and said.

"Uh, I'm going to buy a suit." After hearing what the old man said, Jiang Hai asked a little embarrassedly.

"Oh, are you ready to make a custom order, or have you already ordered it?" Hearing that Jiang Hai was here to buy a suit, the old man here couldn't help but asked curiously. After hearing his words, Jiang Hai scratched his head. Do I still need to order something?

"I haven't ordered one. I just want to buy a set directly. I don't know if there is one here." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the old man was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, then smiled at Jiang Hai, and gently 's shook his head.

"Sir, we don't sell ready-made suits here. We only make-to-order suits. I don't know if you came here shopping or what, but I don't advise you to buy our clothes, because to be honest , Our clothes are a bit too expensive." Looking at Jiang Hai, the old man chuckled, then shrugged.

"Oh? How expensive is it?" After hearing his words, Jiang Hai was interested. Moses Adams recommended him to this store. There must be his reasons. It is natural that it is expensive, but the old man himself said it was expensive. It was outrageous. This left Jiang Hai a little confused. As he walked, he walked towards the old man, and the old man also opened the model album in front of him.

Sure enough, after glancing at the prices on the model, Jiang Hai's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason...

Because some of the suits here are indeed ridiculously expensive. Looking at the past, almost all of them cost 80,000 to 90,000 US dollars. These are just relatively poor ones. Some of the better ones cost more than 100,000 US dollars, or even 200,000 US dollars. A suit, damn, is this a suit? This is robbery!

"It's very expensive. To be honest, not many people come to us to order suits all year round, but we can make a lot of money." The old man saw Jiang Hai's expression and started talking with a smile.

In fact, what Jiang Hai doesn't know is that Alexander Amoso's custom-made suit shop is the most expensive custom-made suit shop in the world. In addition to special suits made of diamonds and other special items, the shop that sells them normally, This store is the most expensive.

Men's suits, the most expensive ones are all handmade and customized, such as Emmas, Armani and so on. In the top society, they are not ranked highly. Generally, these clothes are worn when attending top parties. It won't happen.

There are more popular ones, such as Brooks Brothers, Ermenegildo Zegna suits, Brioni, and K-5. These suits are the suits worn by the truly rich. Armani and Emmaus are the complete nouveau riche.

And this Alexander Amoso ​​is the top brand in custom-made suits. After hearing the old man's explanation, Jiang Haida was a little embarrassed, but when he quit, he was somewhat embarrassed.

"Money is no problem, but I have to wear it when I attend the party tomorrow night, so I have some trouble..." Looking at the old man, Jiang Hai hesitated for a moment and then said this. What he originally meant was that if he rushes to the party tomorrow, If it doesn't come out, then he doesn't want it, but not many Americans can understand the meaning behind his words.

From what they heard, Jiang Hai was saying that he liked these suits very much, but he would rush to wear them tomorrow and asked him if he could make them. Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the old man here couldn't help but be a little surprised. No. It was quite refreshing to think of Jiang Hai.

"If you want to wear it tomorrow, I'll try it tonight. I'll find someone to help me. I'll make the suit before noon tomorrow. You can come over and try it on at noon tomorrow. If it doesn't fit, I'll have another afternoon. The time can be changed. If you are sure you want it, then you can choose a pattern and material." After hearing the old man's words, Jiang Hai cursed in his heart, yes, I must buy it this time, but just buy it. Well, just like Moses Adams said, he really should have a good suit. Then he looked carefully. The material of the suit here is mainly made of wool, cashmere and silk. It is warm, light and slippery, and has some flexibility. At least it will not damage the clothes when you lift your arms. The price of the materials varies with the mixing strength.

The price of pure wool starts at US$70,000, and the price of cashmere-rich clothes starts at US$90,000. Jiang Hai touched these materials and finally chose a material with more cashmere, which is a piece of clothing starting at US$90,000.

When choosing styles, Jiang Hai was a little confused again, because suits are also divided into styles. Logically speaking, there are three types, one is casual suits, the other is formal suits, and the third is business suits. But in Jiang Hai seemed to think that it was actually a matter of how many buttons he had.

One button for casual suits, two buttons for formal suits, and three buttons for business suits. That’s it. He is not a person who likes buttons, so he asked the old man what he should wear to attend a top banquet. The old man told Jiang Hai, as long as It’s a suit, and other things don’t really matter. Few people pay attention to these. After all, there are many rich people who button up their suits and leave them open. Who cares how much the suit has? Where's the button?

After listening to the old man's words, Jiang Hai made a casual suit. After paying a deposit of 10,000 US dollars, Jiang Hai left. The old man also called and called some tailors to help make the suit. All the suits in the store are made by hand, and each suit requires 16,000 stitches. It would be impossible for one person to make it in just one or two months, but Jiang Hai needs it tomorrow, so they Just save the time of making prototypes and add more people to do it.

At noon the next day, Jiang Hai received a call. The preliminary work was done. Jiang Hai went to the store and tried it on. It was indeed a handmade suit. It was very comfortable to wear, but in the eyes of the old man, it was still somewhat A little worse.

When the old man helped Jiang Hai change it into a more suitable one, Jiang Hai also went to buy some matching things. The old man gave Jiang Hai a shirt, but the tie, belt and leather shoes needed Jiang Hai to buy them himself. Okay, since the suit and tie cost 92,300 US dollars, Jiang Hai didn’t need to save anything for himself. The leather shoes he bought were from Lang Fanze. Haven’t you heard of them? In fact, Jiang Hai hasn’t heard of them either. But this is the most expensive store on Fifth Avenue. I heard that it has the best leather shoes in the world. They are made of crocodile skin. They are not as comfortable to wear as outdoor shoes anyway...

The belts and ties I bought were all from the Donkey brand, and together they gave me the aura of a nouveau riche.

After buying the things, he returned to the suit shop. Jiang Hai tried it on again. He had to admit that after the changes, he was indeed more comfortable than before. With Jiang Hai's belt and leather shoes, he wore it. The white and blue striped shirt, paired with a dozen ties, is indeed quite intimidating, especially the inverted triangle Jiang Hai is wearing, he looks really handsome.

The male hormones in this outfit are indeed more intense than wearing outdoor clothes, but Jiang Hai still doesn't like to wear them.

After paying the full payment, Jiang Hai took the car directly back to the hotel. There was a traffic jam for a while when he came back. When he arrived at the hotel, a lot of people had already arrived, and it was only about 10 minutes until the banquet started. There was about half an hour left.

After Jiang Hai parked the car, he went directly to the venue. After all, it was a gathering of the world's largest family.

The security here is indeed what Jiang Hai thought. It is quite strict. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is a sentry every three steps and a post every five steps.

After Jiang Hai went upstairs, he showed his invitation card. After confirming his identity, a waiter led him into the main banquet hall.

At this time, there were already a lot of people in the main banquet hall. Jiang Hai looked over and saw that there were almost two or three hundred people, of which men accounted for about half, and the other half were women, and there were many. Most of them are young women.

The clothes on these people were both gorgeous and simple. They were holding wine glasses and walking around the hall with gleaming eyes.

Jiang Hai had really heard of these women before. These women should be legendary celebrities.

They probably paid a lot of money to enter this party hall. What they are looking for now is their prey. When Jiang Hai entered the room, these women looked over.

However, after seeing that it was Jiang Hai, many people looked away because they were here to find a rich man. They did not think that Jiang Hai was a rich man, but there were some people who knew the goods. I don’t think so…

A suit for more than $90,000, a tie for more than $10,000, a belt for more than $20,000, leather shoes for more than $30,000, plus I don’t know how much, but it’s at least a few hundred thousand dollars for a Patek Philippe. Watch, this is a genuine gold turtle.

Although the appearance is a bit raw, it doesn't matter. As long as they are rich, they are interested in getting to know him.

Just when these women were about to leave in full force, Jiang Hai, who had been looking around after entering the house, also saw a figure he was looking for among the crowd. He immediately grinned and hurried over. (To be continued.)
