Capítulo 5: Jinbei Mall... Shopping
No matter how hard he tried to adapt to his current situation, Lu Fan would subconsciously seek to spend less. Especially on things like food.
At the moment, he just found a random stall by the street and ordered a simple breakfast. Truth be told, he felt more comfortable eating in such a place.
The only problem was how people were looking at him.
His appearance was like that of some rich second-generation. And the bike he rode over attracted the most attention.
This stall was decent and their food was all right, but someone who can ride such a smooth ride should be able to eat somewhere more... upper-level than this place, no?
But Lu Fan did not care about what others thought.
He was too busy thinking of ways to spend more.
It was still possible to spend comfortably at this level, but what would happen when he leveled up?
Buying clothes and other things would no longer cut it.
If his math was right, he should have 1,189,801 yuan in the account at the moment. That was a lot of money but he could still spend it all at once if he had to.
But the problem lay in the high-leveling cap once he leveled up.
The first level gave him a 10x Critical Hit and a 10,000 yuan leveling condition. He also got a lottery ticket for every 1,000 yuan.
The second level gave him a 100x Critical Hit and a 1,000,000 yuan leveling cap. The ticket also went up to 10,000 yuan.
He had discovered that the ticket only worked when he spent the cash in one go. It did not stack up.
While this was not such a major problem now, what would happen in the future?
He had an idea of how the leveling cap was derived. The leveling cup for the previous level is multiplied by the critical hit of the next level.
That meant that the next leveling cap would be a whole billion.
While he was confident in his ability to spend money, it would be utter folly to spend a whole billion on mundane stuff like clothes and such.
There were indeed ways to spend it in less than three minutes, but that was pure foolishness, especially with his current state.
He was just a homeless bum less than 24 hours ago. If he wasn't careful, his wealth might come back to bite him.
The least he had to do now was secure some backing.
But that was something to worry about once he leveled up.
The other point was the lottery tickets. He did not see the difference between the normal lottery ticket and the Extreme lottery ticket.
It might also be because of his Extreme Luck or just that he had not interacted with enough extreme tickets to see the difference.
The system also remained silent.
After enjoying a warm filling breakfast, Lu Fan decided to head to the Jinbei mall in the CBD area in Jiangbei.
It was rather easy to spend the money he had remaining and the faster he spent, the faster he leveled up, and he was sure that whatever he got could help him plan for the future more.
There was no point in worrying so much since, in truth, this bit of money was nothing to the truly rich.
It only took thirty minutes for him to get there.
Jinbei Mall was a top luxury mall in the CBD that covered a very large piece of land. He was not sure how much it cost just to buy the land.
It had over 100 shops and all were luxurious brands. There are also many retail and wholesale shops for bulk and convenient purchases.
But Lu Fan only had one goal at the moment.
He headed straight for the fifth floor where the brands like Armani and Hermes were.
There were other brands but he first went to the Armani shop.
"Welcome, Sir. How may I help you?"
Lu Fan looked at the sales lady in front of him and could not help but praise the mall.
She was indeed a ways off from Alice but he found her more attractive.
He could also tell from the way he approached him that she was very experienced.
For instance, the distance she stopped from him could be said to be perfect. She was not too close, nor was she too far.
Giving him the feeling that she wanted to be close but that she also respected his space. If he was lecherous, it would also serve as a signal of sorts.
If he wanted some more personal service, he had to take the initiative.
He did not despise this kind of action. He might feel uncomfortable with it, but he was no longer ignorant of the suffering the economy put normal people through.
It wouldn't be strange if this saleswoman already had some fun with other customers.
That aside, she was professional and he liked that. With his current outfit, he expected to have a face-slapping scene like some cliché protagonist but he was glad it did not happen.
"Show me some clothes that would be suitable for me. I don't like flashy things."
The woman observed him a bit and led the way while introducing some pieces.
"The total for the set you have chosen is 56,000 yuan."
"…"
Lu Fan was speechless.
It was a simple set and it looked quite plain. The material was great and he felt comfortable touching it, but not many would know that they were branded clothes.
But he did not complain. To him, the more he spent, the better the harvest.
"OK, get me more pieces that look good together. But make sure they aren't flashy. I don't want to be a walking signboard."
Then the lady went road picking set after set. It did not look like she was holding back but Lu Fan was satisfied that she did not pick something he did not like.
What surprised him was that the lady seemed to know his size pretty well.
He did not know what to say about this. He had heard that some perverts had mastered the skill of knowing precise measurements of others, but it was the first time encountered such a scene.
He tried some and finally settled on a comfortable pair of pants and a plain T-shirt.
He was riding a bike. It would be uncomfortable wearing something stiff.
Of course, he did not forget a hoodie.
It had become a habit to hide as much of himself as he could. It was hard to get rid of some of them.
"The total is 630,000 yuan."
Lu Fan handed over his card without hesitation which dumbfounded the lady. Should she have brought out the outrageous stuff? Too bad he only wanted the plain stuff.
"Can you deliver them to this address? You can leave them with the manager there."
"Of course."
Lu Fan had spent so much in a go.
It was clear that he was a good customer. If she could keep him, he would be a constant source of commission.
And if she managed to get him to call her privately… ehehehe.
"Come with me to the shops. I still want to buy some shoes."
"…"
