Macau's gambling industry is booming, and its hotel and luxury goods industries are also developing very well. It is a paradise for the rich, but not for the poor.

When Fu Ziyan first arrived at the dock, she saw a group of people dressed neatly and walking with their heads held high; another group of people dressed in shabby clothes were doing hard labor to make a living.

She was quite emotional. The world of capital has always been characterized by a huge gap between the rich and the poor. What the rich squander may be the lifelong hard work of the poor.

Of course, in the eyes of others, she is also an enviable rich person.

She got off the luxuriously decorated large yacht with a youthful and bright smile on her face, and her whole body was filled with the aura of a rich lady who "throws away gold and jade and doesn't know the taste of sorrow". She held her father's arm in hers, who was elegant and had a strong aura, and her eyes were full of curiosity about Macau.

Because it was a sudden decision to come to Macau, no one was arranged to pick me up.

However, places like the pier are not short of rickshaws and even taxis to pick up and drop off passengers. Remember, cars were not popular at that time and were still considered a luxury, but a small number of taxis had already appeared at the Macau pier.

Fu Qiyuan didn't need to make any arrangements, as the bodyguards around him had already prepared a taxi to pick him up.

As Fu Ziyan and her group got into the car and left, a little discussion began to arise at the dock.

"A yacht this big is much bigger than the house I live in!"

"That's right. The young lady just now is about the same age as my daughter. She looks carefree and her clothes look very expensive. But my daughter has to do all kinds of housework at home all day, and her clothes are all hand-me-downs from older children. She can't even go to school."

"They were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. We laborers can't compare to them. It's good enough if we can support our family."

"Alas, I am so envious of others when I compare myself to them."

Fu Ziyan didn't know that there were a bunch of gossipers and envious people at the dock. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care. There were so many people who envied her that it was too numerous to count.

She was also sighing at this time.

It’s not that she was lamenting the luxury of the mansion. She had lived in many expensive houses that were often priced in US dollars, and the mansion she saw was no more than that.

She was amazed that the classmate Isabella who was waving to her was actually her neighbor in Macau.

It turns out that the upper class is a circle, and you can always meet acquaintances no matter where you go!

After greeting Fu Qiyuan, Isabella excitedly hugged Fu Ziyan. "Selene, I didn't expect you to be my grandmother's neighbor. Are you here in Macau for vacation too?"

"Yes, it was a spur-of-the-moment decision. In fact, I was on vacation on a yacht this morning." Fu Ziyan was very happy to meet her friend.

"Oh, a yacht! I heard from Monika that you got a large yacht for your tenth birthday. It's a pity that I was in England visiting my grandfather at the time and missed such a grand occasion."

Fu Ziyan chuckled. "Although you missed my birthday party, you can join the yacht party I'm organizing soon. I promised Harlan and the others that I would hold a party on my 'new toy'."

Isabella winked playfully, "Great, honey, I won't miss this time!"

After the excitement, Isabella seemed to suddenly react, "Oh, Selene, I'm sorry to disturb you when you move into your new home. Let's play together again after you have packed up." After that, she politely said goodbye to Fu Qiyuan and walked back with a ladylike pace.

Seeing that Ti Ti still had a happy smile on her face, as if she had just met a friend, Fu Qiyuan chuckled, "Now you have someone to accompany you when you go to Macau."

Fu Ziyan responded quickly, "Dad has a job?"

Although she felt a little regretful, she enjoyed the joy of traveling with her father.

But it is still understandable. After all, Fu Qiyuan went to the United States on a business trip for half a month, and celebrated her birthday when he came back. Not long after, he came to accompany her on the maiden voyage of the yacht. A big boss like her father who is busy with all kinds of things must have accumulated a lot of work to do.

"I happened to be in Macau, so I decided to inspect the Yuan Xi Hotel." Fearing his daughter would be reluctant, Fu Qiyuan added, "If Ti Ti is interested, you can accompany Dad to inspect it."

Fu Ziyan thought about it and didn't agree outright. She was here for a vacation and didn't want to get caught up in her studies again.

Yes, studies.

Fu Qiyuan likes to take his daughter to inspect various industries, and analyze the development problems of each industry, the current situation of operations, etc. to Fu Ziyan step by step, and even takes her to participate in high-level meetings.

Fu Ziyan felt quite excited when she went there for the first time, but as she went there more and more times, she was no longer so happy.

Haven’t you had enough business and finance classes at home? You should go to the company to receive one-on-one specific industry coaching during this great vacation.

Fu Ziyan is still a playful person at heart, and this cannot be changed by being reborn as a rich lady. At most, she can study various elite courses under the supervision of her father.

Fu Ziyan studied these courses very seriously. After all, she held a huge amount of assets, and if she couldn't learn how to manage her investments, it would be disadvantageous to her in the future.

But even if she has a serious attitude towards learning, it doesn’t mean that she likes learning. Who would cry while studying when they can have fun?

When Fu Qiyuan saw Ti Ti's expression, he understood and felt a little amused. She was obviously very smart and had a talent for business, but why was she so playful and lazy?

"If you're not interested, forget it. Go out and have fun with your friends. But remember to bring your bodyguards." The more glamorous a place is, the more filth and dirt it harbors, like Macau. So bodyguards are a must, always with you.

Fu Ziyan nodded obediently.

She was already used to her father asking her to bring a bodyguard with her, just like she was used to her mother reminding her to put on an extra coat before going out in her previous life.

Fu Ziyan doesn't mind having a bodyguard around. Having a bodyguard around not only makes her feel safer, but also helps her carry her bags. I don't know why TV dramas always feature wealthy daughters getting rid of their bodyguards; having a bodyguard is so much more convenient.

For example, now, I can also help carry seafood!

Later she got interested and asked her dad to go fishing with her.

It was Fu Ziyan’s first time at the Macau villa, but she was not in the mood to stroll around. After staying at sea for so long, she always felt that she smelled of the sea, so she walked towards the room as soon as she entered the door.

Although Fu Ziyan had never lived here, the cloakroom was still stocked with new styles of the season for her, but there weren't many, only ten sets.

Not long after she finished washing up, Ah Hong knocked on the door and said, "Miss, dinner is ready. Sir, please come down and have dinner."

As her personal housekeeper, Ah Hong must have followed her on the yacht, so she also came to Macau with her.

Perhaps it was a rare visit from Fu Qiyuan, or perhaps it was Fu Ziyan's first time staying here, but the housekeeper prepared a sumptuous dinner, featuring both local Macau specialties and seafood caught by Fu Ziyan.

The baked Portuguese chicken is golden brown, tender and juicy, with a distinct Southeast Asian flavor. It's different from Fu Ziyan's favorite fried chicken, but it's also very much to her taste.

The stuffed squid, made with white wine instead of water, had a hint of fruity aroma and a thick sauce. Perhaps because it was her first time eating it and it was quite novel, Fu Ziyan excitedly took several bites.

Then my father asked the servant to take the food away...

There was no such strange rule in her family as "no more than three meals a day". It was simply that Fu Qiyuan felt that dishes with white wine added were not suitable for his youngest daughter to eat too much.

However, since there were desserts after the meal - Portuguese egg tarts and double skin milk, Fu Ziyan felt that it didn’t matter whether she ate stuffed squid or not, as she could still leave some room for dessert!

After dinner, Fu Ziyan took a walk in the garden with her father as usual.

The difference is that the big houses in Hong Kong are European-style buildings, while the luxury houses in Macau are Chinese-style villas.

There are rockery and koi pond in the backyard. Fu Ziyan excitedly asked the servant to bring fish food. Fu Qiyuan stood by and watched his daughter happily feeding the fish with a smile.

Then the housekeeper came to report, "Sir, Miss Qi Fei and the eldest son of the Xiang family are here to visit."

Surprise flashed in Fu Ziyan's eyes.

The Xiang family is indeed the gambling king family that dominates Macau. They arrived at the dock in the afternoon and came to visit in the evening.

Fu Qiyuan acted as if nothing had happened. He was not surprised at all that the Xiang family came to visit. He calmly told the housekeeper, "Please come into the reception room."

He turned around and called his daughter who was happily feeding the fish, "Titi, come with daddy to see it."

This is natural.

There are so many guests, Fu Ziyan must go with her father to receive them.

Fu Qifei was wearing a classic Chanel little black dress, accessorized with a string of lustrous pearl necklaces and a turquoise brooch. She smiled and said, "Second brother, Ziyan."

Seeing her future uncle again, Fu Ziyan was filled with emotion.

When I first met him, he was still Jin Peng. Although he was dressed in a suit and tie, he couldn't hide his "poor boy" temperament.

The second time I saw him was on the day of my third aunt's engagement. As the eldest grandson of the Xiang family, he was wearing an exquisitely tailored, elegant and luxurious suit. He was full of vigor and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at my third aunt.

This time, he was wearing a low-key and luxurious navy blue suit in the same color as his third aunt's brooch, and a Patek Philippe Calatrava antique watch. He looked like a rich young man, and spoke softly and modestly, "Second brother, Ziyan."

Sure enough, money can support people!

Fu Ziyan smiled and called out, "Third Aunt, Uncle Xiang."

After all, Fu Qifei and Xiang Jiapeng have not yet married, they are just an engaged couple, and they have to wait until after the wedding in mid-October before they can call each other "third uncle".

Fu Qiyuan nodded and asked directly, "Why are you here?"

"In the evening, I was seeing a friend off at the dock and heard people talking about a large yacht. I thought it looked like the Zi Yan. I thought you were coming to Macau to play, so I came to say hello to my second brother." Fu Qifei said with a faint smile.

Fu Qiyuan nodded and looked at Xiang Jiapeng, who was sitting quietly on the side, listening to his fiancée with a tender expression.

Sure enough, Xiang Jiapeng said, "Second brother, my younger sister will hold her coming-of-age ceremony the day after tomorrow. I heard that you are coming to Australia, so I invite you to attend the banquet at our house." This meant that he wanted to use the relationship of marriage to show his networking ability in the Xiang family.

Fu Qiyuan understood.

However, this small banquet was not worthy of his attendance. "I will send Guan Zaizhou to deliver the gift."

Fu Qifei looked as if it was expected. Xiang Jiapeng felt a little disappointed, but it was good that Guan Zaizhou could come.

Fu Qiyuan sent his trusted assistant Guan Zaizhou to attend the gift presentation, which was already a great favor to Xiang Jiapeng.

Otherwise, the coming-of-age ceremony for the daughter of an ordinary concubine in the second branch of the Xiang family would just be a small gift that Fu Qiyuan casually assigned an assistant to deliver.

Fu Qiyuan had refused, and Fu Ziyan didn't seem to have any intention of going, so Fu Qifei certainly wouldn't help the Xiang family invite Fu Ziyan again.

Not to mention their different status, one is the granddaughter of the Xiang family raised through an arranged marriage, and the other is the only daughter and future heir carefully raised by Fu Qiyuan.

Just say that Fu Ziyan is not familiar with the Xiang family's daughter, and there is no need to go. Even if she wants to marry the eldest grandson of the Xiang family, there is no reason to let Fu Ziyan suffer because of these in-laws.

The two of them sat for a while and then left.

Because Fu Qifei was marrying in Macau, Fu Mingzhang included a large house there as part of her dowry. To prepare for the wedding and sort out her dowry, she has been traveling back and forth between Macau and Hong Kong lately.

~

The next morning, Fu Qiyuan went to the hotel, and Fu Ziyan ran to the neighbor's house next door and took Isabella shopping.

There was no way, there were too few clothes in the cloakroom and she really didn't like it.

There are many shops in the center of Macau, and the variety of goods is no less than that in Hong Kong.

Fu Ziyan and Isabella had a very pleasant shopping experience.

There is a buyer's store with amazing accessories.

There's a platinum brooch with a carriage painted on it. The carriage is like a fairytale carriage, very dreamy. There's also a pair of pink and gold airplane cuffs...

The two of them took to it like a duck to water and bought a batch of hat accessories, spending nearly 30,000 Australian dollars in this store alone.

At this time, the Australian dollar and the Hong Kong dollar are basically exchanged at a 1:1 ratio.

As expected, Macau is a den of gold, money comes quickly and goes quickly!

The owner of the boutique was overjoyed to see the two young ladies spending lavishly on their purchases.

After all, the items in her shop aren't expensive luxury goods, but rather niche and exquisite. Most women visiting Macau will buy something from her shop, and it's well-known, but it's rare to see someone spending 30,000 yuan at once.

Thirty thousand Australian dollars can buy a small yard!

When Fu Ziyan left the boutique, the six bodyguards following her were all carrying bags and some were carrying suitcases.

Because Fu Ziyan bought some large items such as tableware and other decorative items, she simply bought a suitcase to store them.

Isabella sighed, "Selene, you're such a spendthrift. And you have so much pocket money! I only have a NT$100,000 spending limit this time in Macau, and you just pushed me into spending NT$10,000! I'll have to be more restrained from now on."

The little mixed-race girl who looked like a doll frowned slightly, but her words were full of smiles. It was obvious that she was also very satisfied with her shopping results.

Fu Ziyan was amused by Isabella. "If you don't have enough pocket money, just come to me and I will definitely help you."

Although she still only has HK$50,000 in pocket money every month, and her treasury is under the supervision of her guardian father for investment and cannot be used for daily consumption, she has a lot of dividends from her personal investments. As long as she doesn't spend too much on expensive high-end luxury goods, her treasury will never be exhausted.

"Oh dear, you are so generous. Thank you in advance. I will definitely come to you for help if I need it!"

The two walked around for a while, had lunch at a very good local restaurant in Macau, and then parted ways.

There was no other way, Isabella had a golf lesson in the afternoon and she had to rush back to class.

Fu Ziyan could only go shopping with her bodyguards, and only returned home when the car could no longer hold the shopping bags.

When she returned home, she happened to meet Fu Qiyuan.

Fu Qiyuan glanced at the shopping bags and suitcases in the bodyguard's hands and smiled, "Did you have fun, Ti Ti?"

"Of course, we came across a great boutique and the owner has great taste!" Fu Ziyan shared with her father with a smile on her face.

"If your pocket money is not enough, remember to tell Dad." Fu Qiyuan does not restrict his daughter's spending when traveling. The most important thing is to have fun.

Cultivating a good view on money and consumption does not require sacrificing the joy of traveling.

"Thank you dad!"
