Super-rich: Spending money is just a job!

Chapter 243 Going to School 8

When Xiaomeng arrived in the romantic city, she found that Xiao Tang had arrived as well. Because he was interning at the government service window in the development zone, it was not easy for him to get leave, so he could only take advantage of the weekend to go out and have some fun.

Xiaomeng was also very happy to have a playmate.

Xiao Tang was much more familiar with the area than Xiao Meng. He borrowed a mini vintage car with a front door from somewhere and drove it around the city with Xiao Meng.

The advantage of this little car is that it can maneuver nimbly through narrow streets. The disadvantage is that the interior space is too cramped. Xiaomeng felt that it was too crowded for two people to sit in, and they would bump into each other's arms and legs when turning a corner. The interior space was even smaller than a steamed fish head with chopped peppers.

Xiao Tang, however, thought the car was great and drove it happily; no one knew what he was so happy about.

If it weren't for the fact that this little rickety car was so convenient, allowing her to take advantage of breaks in the show to visit various palaces, attractions, and museums in the city, Xiaomeng wouldn't have wanted to ride in it.

That day, Xiaomeng was notified that the show she was going to watch was a bit special.

This was a collaborative show; the Dream Pavilion Museum was introduced to the designer of this show and they collaborated.

Xiaomeng didn't originally receive an invitation to the show. However, the museum staff knew that the owner was also in the same city, so they directly notified Xiaomeng, urging her to come and support the event.

Xiaomeng scratched her head, pushed aside the other event, and took Xiao Tang to the fashion show.

Today, Xiaomeng and Xiaotang were dressed very elegantly, and they even accidentally wore suits that were similar in color.

Both were silver-gray silk garments with subtle patterns of the same color. The only difference was the patterns on the fabric; one featured a stylized eight-horse motif, while the other had layers upon layers of cloud patterns.

Xiaomeng's coat was made with a lot of manual labor, with tiny, bright artificial diamonds adorning the patterns, making it very eye-catching under both lights and sunlight.

Xiaomeng hadn't originally planned to wear this outfit; she intended to wear a strapless haute couture gown. Xiaotang rejected it, saying that the streets of Paris were a bit chaotic right now, and girls needed to dress more conservatively.

Xiao Tang helped her choose a gray suit-style dress from her wardrobe, and only allowed her to wear small artificial diamond and pearl jewelry. He didn't want her to wear too much real gold or silver, lest it dazzle people.

He said he heard from a friend a couple of days ago that a local socialite was robbed of rings and earrings worth over a million dollars on the street. The socialite even had bodyguards with her, and she was still robbed. You can imagine how chaotic the security is here.

We're just here to watch the fun, so let's keep a low profile, wear shirts and suits, and prioritize safety.

Xiaomeng was someone who listened to advice, and as expected, she didn't choose any expensive jewelry. She styled her hair in a simple bun, adorned with a pearl comb and a velvet flower in the shape of an osmanthus. On her ears were two sky-blue porcelain stud earrings.

These are all merchandise items from their own museum. The materials aren't particularly rare, but the craftsmanship is top-notch, the designs are exquisite and delicate, and the quality is excellent. The labor costs are even higher than the cost of the raw materials. Therefore, the prices aren't extravagant; they're all within the range of one thousand euros.

Because the price is a bit high compared to fast-moving consumer goods, and the brand is not well-known, it doesn't sell very well and isn't a hot seller.

However, Xiaomeng wasn't in a hurry. The production volume of these handicrafts was already low; a skilled jewelry craftsman could only produce one piece after a day or two of meticulous work. If sales were high, there wouldn't be enough to meet demand.

The two got out of the car and walked far away from the venue, because the area in front of them was already blocked by media people with long lenses and microphones.

After discussing it for a moment, the two went to the back door, where the staff entered.

There were guards at the back gate, but it was a little better than at the front.

Museum staff ran out and took them inside.

They were greeted by Nami, an international student employee. "Boss, you're here! Sister Luo was just saying she was going to call you."

"Okay, is everything going smoothly with the preparations?"

"Everything's ready. Boss, this way. Be careful, it's closer to the backstage area and there are more people here." Nami carefully led the way, making sure not to step on anyone.

Xiaomeng saw many people crowded together talking, smoking, and drinking, like a party with a lot of people and a lot of chaos.

"They're already drinking?" Xiaomeng was a little surprised. Looking at the people sitting on the ground next to the toilet and even at the door, she had only ever seen such scenes on trains during the Spring Festival travel rush. "My God, this place is so dirty, how come these people are sitting on the ground?"

Xiao Tang also looked disgusted, "These foreigners, really, haven't they learned about hygiene?"

Nami shoved a champagne glass into Xiaomeng's hand: "Here you go, boss."

Xiaomeng sighed, "It's not even evening yet, and they've already started pouring drinks?"

“That’s how it is here. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” Nami was about to pour Xiaomeng some champagne when Xiao Tang stopped her. He took out a small Sprite from his pocket and poured it for Xiaomeng. “It’s always good to be cautious. We’d better not get drunk yet.”
