Harry Winston, the place that represented the most popular luxury style on Earth at all times and places, Li Du had finally arrived.
From the outside, the building looked luxurious and imposing, with jewels shining everywhere. Upon entering, however, it felt that the place lacked people, which was what jewelry stores needed most.
Las Vegas had many tourists, but this jewelry store had very few.
However, the interior decoration of the jewelry store was very grand. As soon as one entered the door, there was a huge crystal chandelier. The shining light was like the glitter of diamonds. Standing below it, people would unconsciously have a kind of intoxicated feeling.
The first floor of the jewelry store was a rest area and a display area. It was very spacious, with a buffet cocktail table and a drinks counter. People could sit anywhere and drink comfortably.
To buy jewelry, Li Du had to go to the second floor. Li Du took the huge glass elevator, and soon, a fashionable jewelry world appeared in front of him.
There were even fewer customers on the second floor. There were many corridor-like aisles with display cabinets on both sides. There were beautiful saleswomen walking around. As long as someone showed interest in a piece of jewelry, the saleswoman would immediately go over and explain it.
Li Du, with two strong bodyguards, quickly attracted the attention of many people.
As soon as he stepped into the corridor, a tall blonde lady walked over with a smile and asked, "Hello, sir. How can I help you?"
Li Du went straight to the point and asked, "Do you buy high-end jewelry raw materials here?"
The salesperson nodded gently and said, "Yes, sir, we have such a business."
Li Du said, "I would like to see your store manager or your manager. I have a batch of jewelry raw materials for sale. It's a batch of fire opals."
The salesperson led him forward and asked him to wait. She quickly walked over to a woman who was using a tablet to register something. She whispered a few words and the woman walked over.
"Hello, sir. You have a batch of fire opals for sale?"
Li Du nodded and asked, "Are you the manager here?"
The woman said, "Sorry, I am the lobby supervisor. According to the rules, I need to first check the gemstones you have provided before making the next arrangements."
Li Du waved and Godzilla, who was behind him, walked up and opened the box that he had been carrying. Inside, there were more than 20 sparkling fire opals.
The first floor of the jewelry store was brightly lit, while the second floor was dimmer. This was to better set off the gems in the cabinets. Each cabinet also had a powerful small lamp specifically to illuminate the gems.
Godzilla opened the box, and a faint but persistent layer of fiery red light appeared in front of them. This was the gemstone effect produced when many pieces of opal were put together.
The woman put on a pair of glasses and took out a small flashlight to shine on the gemstones one by one. Soon, she took off her glasses and said, "Please wait a moment. I'll inform our director immediately."
This time, Li Du's treatment was different. The place he was waiting in was changed to a very high-end lounge. Someone brought him a cup of fragrant coffee and a plate of fruit.
Li Du wanted to be impressed by the good service of the jewelry store, but he realized later that it was just something to pass the time. He really had to wait for a while.
The manager of the lobby came back with an apologetic smile and said that their director was entertaining a few guests and asked him to wait a little longer.
Li Du nodded to show that he did not mind. However, the wait lasted for half an hour.
He felt that something was not right. After some consideration, he released the little bug into the director's office to see what was going on.
He could not be blamed for being careful. He had gemstones that were worth millions on him.
There were four people talking in the director's office, or rather, three people attacking one of them with words. The person being attacked was a black-haired middle-aged man in a well-ironed suit. The other three people were of different ages and dressed casually.
The middle-aged man in the suit was the director of the jewelry store. The nameplate on his chest introduced him: Director Roger Golden.
The little bug did not have hearing, so he could not hear what the few people were saying. However, he could see that Roger looked very tired and the other three were agitated.
Seeing that the director was indeed entertaining a guest, Li Du kept the little bug, rolled up his sleeves, picked up the cup of coffee, and slowly drank.
As he rolled up his sleeves, the smile of the manager of the lobby, who was smiling beside him, suddenly froze.
However, she quickly recovered and smiled more sincerely. "Mr. Li, please wait a moment. I'll go and urge our director again."
This time, many footsteps were heard. The beautiful and elegant female manager led the way, and the four people Li Du had seen earlier followed her to the lounge.
Director Roger was very enthusiastic. He extended his hand to him from afar. "Hello, hello, Mr. Li. I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting."
Li Du smiled and shook his hand. "You're too kind."
After shaking hands, he withdrew his hand and noticed that the other party was staring at his left hand.
Suddenly, he realized what was so strange about his left hand? What was there to pay attention to? It was nothing more than a watch, a Patek Philippe Trossi-Leggenda watch!
Since he got the watch, he had worn it on his left wrist. For more than half a year, no one recognized the identity of the watch, let alone its value.
However, after coming to Harry Winston for less than an hour, a female supervisor could recognize him with just a glance. This is a professional esper!
This was understandable. Li Du was mainly in contact with treasure hunters and other people at the bottom of society. His identity was also a treasure hunter. Even if someone noticed his watch, they would only think it was a Patek Philippe imitation.
However, it was different when he came to Harry Winston. He had brought along millions of dollars worth of gemstones, which directly raised his value. After revealing the Patek Philippe watch, the other party would subconsciously think it was the real deal.
Another reason was that the Patek Philippe Trossi-Leggenda watch was very famous. Of course, the top ten most expensive watches in the world were all very famous. As elites in the luxury goods industry, it was not surprising that these people could recognize it.
Roger led the way and invited him into the office. He asked, "Laurel said that you have a batch of gemstones to sell to us, is that right?"
Li Du said, "Yes, a total of 58 fire opals, all weighing more than 50 carats."
Roger's eyebrows twitched. It was obvious that these words had given him quite a shock.
However, to be able to sit in such a high position at Harry Winston, he was naturally experienced and knowledgeable. He was not surprised and said, "Can I have a look?"
Li Du waved again. Godzilla and Big Quinn opened the boxes in their hands, and 58 fire opals appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing these gemstones, Roger did not say anything. A white man in his sixties exclaimed, "Ah, so many fire opals. What an eye-opener!"
