How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Several minutes later.

A weary employee from Construction Bank, led by staff members, arrived at the reception room.

Clearly...

Someone had described Gu Heng to him on the way there, and the moment he saw Gu Heng, he hurried over and respectfully said, "Mr. Gu, here is the asset appraisal report you requested."

With that, he handed the brown document bag to Gu Heng.

Gu Heng didn’t even take it but immediately turned his attention to the manager of Patek Philippe Origin Mansion and said, "Give it to them."

The Construction Bank employee quickly turned and handed the document bag to the manager.

Upon receiving the document bag, the manager of Patek Philippe Origin Mansion, Qi Shuming, did not open it, but bowed and formally apologized to Gu Heng, "Mr. Gu, we sincerely apologize for our service error, but please believe us, we did not mean any offense to you.

We will deal seriously with the two staff members involved afterward and will also inform you of the outcome at the earliest possible.

Now, let me take you on a tour of our Patek Philippe Origin Mansion, hoping that our service from here will make you forget about the earlier unpleasantness."

The fact that Construction Bank personnel personally delivered the asset appraisal report had already proven Gu Heng’s wealth, and at this point... the appraisal report itself wasn’t that important anymore...

Hearing Qi Shuming speak, Gu Heng did not persist further.

He had only intended to vent his feelings...

Now that he had vented, it really wasn’t a big deal anymore, and Qi Shuming had clearly stated his stance. They were going to deal with those two guys, and how they handled it wasn’t important; what mattered was that the attitude had said it all.

Were those two service staff wronged?

Wronged.

Everyone present, including Gu Heng, knew they were wronged.

After all, they were merely following the rules set by Patek Philippe themselves...

But no matter what, this rule had displeased Gu Heng, so someone had to pay the price for this "displeasure"…

And it wasn’t just Gu Heng; any wealthy person would feel the same today.

This is the privilege of being wealthy, and Gu Heng was one of them.

Patek Philippe, as a globally renowned top-tier luxury watch brand, seems to cater to the public, but in reality, they serve just that small group of wealthy people. All they need to do is to maintain the wealthy’s impression of Patek Philippe...

Listening to the system’s prompt, a smile curled on Gu Heng’s lips...

This is the power of money, isn’t it?

Indeed very alluring...

And he had earned 880,000 yuan without doing anything...

Good omen!

Then he followed Qi Shuming out of the reception room...

Yu Qianqian, Leyi, Gu Xinran, and Tao Miaomiao exchanged glances, their feelings quite mixed...

No matter what, they were all still university students in their ivory towers, and this was their first encounter with such a situation, feeling as if everything was turned upside down...

Being able to work at Patek Philippe Origin Mansion, no matter what, should be considered elites in their field, right?

Just because they followed company policy, they will be punished afterwards?

This is completely contrary to their long-held values...

But one person did not think so, and that was Leyi, who was staring intensely at the retreating figure of Gu Heng...

This damn upper-class privilege was exactly the life she longed for, wasn’t it?

Previously, when she spoke of wanting to be Gu Xinran’s sister-in-law, it was more in jest, but at this moment, the joke seemed to have turned sour...

....

"Mr. Gu, how much do you know about Patek Philippe?" Qi Shuming asked, standing beside Gu Heng.

"Not at all."

Gu Heng felt his question was superfluous...

If he had known about Patek Philippe, would there have been the earlier awkwardness?

"Then shall we start with some basic models, and perhaps I could introduce you to our brand’s history along the way?"

Gu Heng waved his hand.

"Forget the brand history, just introduce me to the watches in your display case." Explore stories on empire

If this were earlier, Gu Heng might have been a bit interested in learning about it, but now, he had lost all interest...

Seeing Gu Heng’s outright refusal, Qi Shuming was not embarrassed; his face still bore a humble smile as he led Gu Heng to the outermost display.

"Mr. Gu, what you are looking at now is our best-selling Nautilus series, and this model is the Parrot Snail 5724G-001 model, which is also a model that is hard to find elsewhere.

This watch made it from Geneva headquarters to here in just three days and has already attracted over ten customers to come and admire it, but all of them have been deterred by its price."

Gu Heng first glanced at the wristwatch in the showcase, then, intrigued, asked, "How much?"

"About 1.4 million yuan."

"About?"

Hearing Qi Shuming’s repsonse, Gu Heng gave him a puzzled look.

Logically speaking, Gu Heng had a vague understanding of the value of watches.

On one hand, he felt that such a small, impractical item costing millions or tens of millions was indeed not worth it...

On the other hand, the fact that so many wealthy people across the world coveted these famous watches indicated that they had their merits...

He didn’t believe he was the only sober one; whether it was self-made first-generation wealthy individuals or second-generation wealthy individuals relying on their parents’ shadows, they weren’t foolish...
