Chapter 949 Travel (End)
The purpose of traveling is actually to relax and rest your body and mind, because today's society makes everyone bear various pressures. Whether it is Taeyeon and Tiffany who are artists, or Zhang Pingan who has no worries about food and drink, you have different pressures in different positions. In the eyes of ordinary people, rich people don't feel any pressure. Because the biggest source of pressure in the eyes of ordinary people is money, so in their eyes, rich people don't feel any pressure.
In fact, no matter how rich you are, there is still pressure. Just like the queen of Zhang Pingan's family, she sits in the position of president of the investment company, and her wrong decision will cause great losses. And this loss is not only for their family, but also for other investors. So no matter how rich you are, just in different positions in this society, there will be different pressures.
Star artists look at them making so much money, thinking that money is so easy to make, there should be no pressure, right? No, star artists also have pressure. Famous big artists have their private lives monitored by countless people. Those who are not famous face the pressure of survival.
So traveling is the best way to relieve stress, because it allows your body and mind to rest to a certain extent. This time, Zhang Pingan took Taeyeon and Tiffany and drove the RV around the West. From the dazzling Sin City to the clean and comfortable Salt Lake City. From the grandeur of the Grand Canyon to the amazing geysers in Yellowstone Park.
The trip of the three was relaxed, comfortable and romantic. It is said that a trip can make each other understand each other more deeply, or let each other know what kind of person each other is. However, for Taeyeon and Tiffany, Zhang Pingan is the one who makes them feel at ease.
If a couple breaks up during a trip, it is mostly because of the problem of consumption concept. Yes, only when there are differences in consumption concepts will there be quarrels during the trip. Apart from this point, I really can't think of anything else.
The consumption concept is cultivated according to different family environments. A person with good family conditions will definitely have higher requirements for accommodation conditions when traveling. If you grow up in an ordinary family, you think that accommodation is just a place to sleep. We come out to see the scenery, not to enjoy the hotel. Then it is okay to choose an ordinary homestay.
Another point is food. When you go to a country with different cultures, the search for food stores is also different. The rich think that if they go to a place and there is a Michelin restaurant on the food recommendation list, they must try it, because they don’t know when they will come here next time. But the poor think that Michelin is too expensive and there is no need to eat there. Street food is also good.
Tolerate once, tolerate twice, can you tolerate three or four times? The conflict will erupt with the length of the trip. Do you think it is because of the problem of "money"? No, in fact, it is because of the problem of consumption. Some people think that traveling is for fun. Even if you spend some money, you can just make more money. But some people think that money should be saved and taken out in some places where it should be spent.
There is no right or wrong in this, this is a problem of consumption.
The rich are not necessarily free and easy when spending money. And the poor are not necessarily stingy when spending money. In fact, in today's society, people with average conditions are often the most free and easy. The main reason is that there are too many ways to find some money for emergencies in this society, instead of asking for money like before, you have no money and you have to beg your father and grandmother to borrow money. Now you only need a mobile phone!
However, when Taeyeon and Tiffany had a good income, their overall consumption concept was not much different from Zhang Pingan. Besides, Zhang Pingan was not the kind of rich second generation who lived a very extravagant life. On the contrary, his lifestyle was very healthy. You can eat at roadside stalls, and Michelin is also good.
It was the same for Taeyeon and the others. When they were busy with their music schedules, seaweed rice rolls could last them for a day. When they had no schedules, top restaurants were also good. Even if they were hungry at night, instant noodles would be fine! There was not much difference between them and Zhang Pingan in terms of diet.
There was even less accommodation. As a star idol, it was normal to stay in a hotel. Of course, sleeping in the car when they were busy was also commonplace.
So the trip of the three people would not cause conflicts, but would only make them feel comfortable on a romantic and comfortable trip.
.......
The three of them saw some hot springs in the volcanic area of Yellowstone Park and also saw the forests there. Then after returning the car there, the three of them went to San Francisco and found a courier to deliver the outdoor tools they bought back. The signatory was a Korean friend of Tiffany who lived in the same community as her. When the time came, the three of them would pick them up when they returned to Los Angeles.
It took the three of them half a month to get back to Los Angeles. After arriving in San Francisco, they walked around the city and bought a basic Porsche Cayenne for just over 60,000 US dollars. They drove back by themselves. The car was ready. The three of them chose the famous "Highway 1", a coastal scenic highway.
The three of them visited San Francisco. This modern small city is, well, small. Compared to Los Angeles, the city is definitely smaller. Moreover, the two cities have different positioning. Los Angeles is a leisure city, while San Francisco has many companies, so there are more urbanized skyscrapers in San Francisco.
You can see many people walking on the streets in casual clothes in Los Angeles, but you can see many people in suits in San Francisco.
San Francisco is a city, so the pace of life is fast. Moreover, the transportation in the city is very convenient. You can still travel around the city even if you don’t drive yourself. But if you're in Los Angeles and don't have a car, it's like having no legs.
San Francisco is suitable for hard work, and Los Angeles is suitable for enjoyment. Of the two cities, Zhang Pingan personally prefers Los Angeles because he came to the United States for a vacation, rather than looking for a place to work.
Zhang Pingan drove the Cayenne back home and bought it for just over US$60,000. The price tag is 65,000, but there are various discounts here. Can you believe it? And there are no mandatory options, just the most basic model, which can be picked up on the spot.
Pani drove the ride home, with Taeyeon sitting in the passenger seat and Zhang Pingan sitting in the back seat. The two of them were driving the 'Highway 1' back, and Zhang Ping'an thoroughly enjoyed the ride.
Highway 1 is a scenic road. There are no trucks here, unlike the expressway where there are many trucks. So the three of them enjoyed walking around and taking photos. It was more than 800 kilometers back from San Francisco, with a two-day rest in the middle, so the trip took a total of half a month. However, this half month did make both of them feel that it was very worthwhile.
Because Pani completed her first self-driving experience in the United States and drove the most worthwhile Highway 1 herself, she can also say that she has been there when talking to her friends in the future.
After leaving, half a month later, when I returned home, there was a layer of dust in my house again. Zhang Pingan simply tidied up the sofa in the living room, and then asked Pani to call for housekeeping.
After Pani called the housekeeper, she smiled and said to Zhang Ping'an: "It's already the end of the month after this trip. When will you get your finals ticket?"
Zhang Ping'an, who was preparing to make coffee at the bar, said depressedly: "I'm not going, it's boring without our Chinese team participating!"
There are some reports about the game in South Korea. Pani saw the report about the game this time, saying that two Korean teams would meet in the finals, so she deliberately asked Zhang Pingan if she wanted to go to the game? In fact, Pani also guessed that without the Chinese team, Zhang Pingan might not go to see it.
Pani smiled and said: "Hahaha, what are you going to do next?"
Zhang Pingan said: "Let's rest here for two days, and then go back to Seoul with you. Things over there have been resolved, and I can go to Seoul to see it."
Taeyeon thought for a while and said: "We have a lot of things to do next month, including a dream concert and a family concert. And we also have to start preparations for the end of the year song competition. "
In November, the end of the year atmosphere begins, and the busy period for their singers is about to arrive. Zhang Pingan went to Seoul this time to sort out the company's affairs, and to prepare for the second season of the men's team draft. Then he returned to China with Yang Yueyue, and it was almost time for him to prepare for the draft in China.
Zhang Pingan made coffee and walked towards the rest area, while chanting: "The end of the year is coming in a blink of an eye, and we are about to enter the 17th year. By the way, Taeyeon, do you want to apply for a U.S. visa?" I’m going to sell your Bitcoin this evening.”
Taeyeon thought for a while and said, "No need, right? My current bank card has a very high level."
"It's up to you. Today's sale is about 110 million US dollars. Pani, you are going to become a billionaire. What do you have in mind tomorrow? This is Beverly Hills!"
The 'Beverly Hills' in Zhang Ping'an's mouth represents the countless luxury stores surrounding it. And what will Pani do after she has 100 million in cash?
Pani glared at Zhang Pingan and said, "What's wrong with Beverly Hills? Do I really want to buy a house here? Hey, it's 100 million US dollars."
The accounts were about to be divided, and Taeyeon became a little unrealistic. Zhang Pingan gave her 10 billion won (US$10 million) in the early stage, which means she still has 100 billion won! With more than 100 billion in her arms, she really doesn't know what she can do?
Because now she has everything her family should have, whether it is the mansion her parents bought in Jeonju or the mansion she bought in Seoul, she has nothing else to buy.
Even if she eats delicacies every time at home, she will never be able to finish the more than 100 billion won in her lifetime. And even if you buy luxury clothes, you won’t be able to spend all your money, right?
