Chapter 44 Buy! Purchase! Purchase!
In a cafe in Moscow Sheremetyevo International Airport, Tonya is drinking coffee and chatting with her best friend Terkina. Flight P-217 from Paris to Moscow is still two hours away. It will take off, this is their rare leisure time before work, the two are dressed as stewardesses, and almost all the male guests will look at them from time to time.
"That car of yours is so beautiful, honestly, who gave it to you?" Terkina asked knowingly.
"Who else is there? Of course it's a boyfriend. By the way, I'll give you this first. This is yours last time." Tonya said in a low voice, and took out a heavy brown paper bag from her pocket , handed over with both hands.
Terkina took the brown paper bag and stuffed it into her handbag with a calm expression.
"Aren't you counting?" Tonya reminded kindly.
"No, your boyfriend's price is always fair." Terkina replied with a smile.
After encountering a series of blows from her family and boyfriend, Terkina had no choice but to embark on the road of smuggling. The convenience of work gave Terkina this opportunity, although she was caught when she first brought the goods , And thanks to the asylum of his colleagues at that time, he was able to escape. However, Shibie will treat her with admiration for three days. The current Terkina is no longer the rookie she used to be. He has learned to add 500 ruble notes to his documents when going through the security check. This is only a fraction of what Terkina earned from one trip, but for those security check staff, it is almost a month's salary. .
Terkina's mother is still receiving expensive treatment in the hospital. At the beginning, Terkina relied on saving money and borrowing all her colleagues to barely make up for the medical expenses. In addition to supporting her mother's medical expenses, Terkina is now considering buying an independent property in the suburbs and buying an imported car for herself. It can be said that it was life that drove Terkina to a dead end, but now Terkina has opened up a new world with her own hands.
Terkina leaned close to Tonya's ear and said softly: "You know what? The captain and co-pilot of our flight, and some sisters also want me to take them a few times. .”
"No way! The captain's salary is very high!" Tonya lowered her voice and said in surprise.
"It's not that you haven't done it. How can the little money they earn compare with the money they earn by bringing the goods? Every family has a difficult book. The captain's family has several children. It's not impossible." Terkina said disdainfully.
"You have to be careful! It will be miserable if you get caught!" Tonya advised.
"Donia, you have paid off your debts now, and you have a boyfriend who loves you so much and is capable. I am different. If I don't do this, my mother will die in the hospital. Otherwise You and your boyfriend helped me sell things, I can't live the life I have now!" Terkina's eye circles were a little red. She went on to say: "Don't worry, it's okay, I pay more than half of the salaries of the security inspectors at the airport?" Terkina said.
The two chatted for a long time, and the waiter took the initiative to refill a pot of coffee for the two of them. Terkina ordered two more cakes. The two ate and chatted happily, enjoying the leisure time.
. . .
When Flight P-217 finally landed at Charles de Gaulle Airport, the crew of the flight left the plane one after another, and Tonya and Terkina returned to the hotel together. The hotel where the crew lived was next to the airport. As usual, Terkina lived in the same room with Tonya. After they returned to the room, Terkina took a bath first, and then took out his outfit from the luggage. After dressing up, I saw Terkina wearing a beige women's suit from Chanel, a pair of Hermes high heels on her feet, and a Hermes handbag on her arm.
There is also a pair of Prada sunglasses pinned on the hair, coupled with exquisite makeup and outstanding temperament, he looks like a rich man.
"Bonjour!" Terkina greeted Tonya playfully, causing Tonya to burst into laughter.
"You really look like a French nobleman!" Tonya laughed and teased Terkina.
"Of course it has to be similar, otherwise those top luxury stores wouldn't even let me in." Terkina explained.
When everything was ready, Terkina left the hotel room, leaving Tonya alone in the room to rest. As soon as she walked downstairs, she saw the captain and co-pilot working together. The sisters are waiting for her downstairs. Everyone wore casual clothes, which was specially explained by Terkina.
Terkina led the crowd back to the airport first, where there was a currency exchange office where rubles could be exchanged for francs, but the exchange amount for each passenger was limited. But it doesn't matter, if there is a market, there will be business opportunities. Some people specialize in this kind of large-value exchange business, just hire a few guys to exchange, and then give them some benefits. Terkina changed the kraft paper bag of rubles into francs with ease, and everyone followed Terkina's example.
After exchanging francs, everyone took two taxis and went straight to the Champs-Elysées, which is a world-famous commercial and prosperous district in the center of Paris. Charles de Gaulle Square (also known as the Star Square), the eastern section is dominated by natural scenery; the two sides are flat British lawns, quiet and peaceful; the western section is a high-end commercial area, where world-class brands, clothing stores, and perfume shops are concentrated. , Fire trees and silver flowers, graceful and luxurious. Therefore, it is called "the most beautiful street in the world".
Terkina's goal is to be located in the high-end business district in the west section. Everyone is wandering on the commercial street. The top luxury brands on both sides make the girls except Terkina can't stop admiring. It's not just these Girl, women all over the world regard owning a product here as their dream. Unfortunately, Terkina is no longer the little girl who knows nothing about the world. She is no longer crazy about a certain brand of handbags. No, the goods here are just objects that serve her to earn a living.
Terkina walked into Cartier's specialty store, and her brand-name attire immediately caught the attention of the clerk. "Is there anything I can do for you?" a handsome clerk said to Terkina in French with a smile.
"I want to see your watches," Terkina said to the clerk.
The beautiful clerk led Terkina to the watch counter and enthusiastically introduced the characteristics of this model of watch to him. Another waiter handed him a cup of coffee, and Terkina sat comfortably. On the leather sofa, sip the fragrant coffee and listen to the eloquent introduction of the clerk.
After about five minutes, Terkina was really impatient, she politely interrupted the clerk's conversation, went straight to the counter, pointed to a row of watches and said: "Please take out this row, and This row, and that row over there."
The shop assistants hurriedly fulfilled Terkina's request and placed these watches in front of her. Terkina glanced at it briefly, and then said, "Please wrap it all up for me, I want it all."
The clerk thought he heard it wrong, and quickly asked, "You mean to buy them all?"
"Yes, buy them all, and I'll pay cash!"
