Afterwards, the two of them once again arrived at the shopping street, and at this moment, Hiyori couldn't help but have a question.
"Lord Ryuto, is there a dragon here?"
"It's impossible, right?"
If there were dragons here, Ryuto couldn't help but complain in his heart.
"Then why did we come here?"
"Well, let's just consider it as preparation for our task."
Saying so, Ryuto walked straight towards a specific store.
Upon entering the store, Hiyori couldn't help but exclaim with astonishment.
"Oh, Lord Ryuto, there are strange boxes everywhere here."
Just as Hiyori said, the two of them had come to a mobile phone store.
Speaking of which, it wouldn't matter if she said this at home, but if she said it in a store where people sell phones, she might end up getting beaten up.
After being amazed for a while, Hiyori finally came back to her senses.
"Lord Ryuto, could it be that there are dragons in those boxes?"
"That's also impossible."
Dragons are nowhere to be found... Can we please stop using this joke? That thing doesn't exist at all.
"Is that so?"
As she said that, Hiyori showed a regretful expression.
Hey, hey, surely you don't believe that kind of thing exists, right? Spare me, this child believes in everything too easily. Ryuto couldn't help but hold his slightly throbbing head with his hand.
"If that's the case, why did we come here?"
"Because of what happened earlier, I suddenly remembered that you don't seem to have a mobile phone."
Hearing this, Hiyori tilted her head again.
"A mobile phone? You mean that strange box that makes sound?"
Why did you have to add the word "strange" to describe it?
"Yes... that's the one."
Then, Hiyori began to think seriously.
"Come to think of it, I remember Lord Ryuto saying that the box can be used for long-distance communication, which is indeed very useful for guards."
While Hiyori was thinking, she nodded from time to time.
Please stop saying that, why do I feel sorry for the mobile phone?
"Well, for the above reasons, we are here to buy a mobile phone now. Hiyori, if you like any of them, go ahead and buy it."
Of course, I won't be paying, after all, I remember this guy is super rich, right?
"Okay, Lord Ryuto."
So, the two of them wandered around the store, and soon they came to the mobile phone counter called "Crazy Brand".
The salesperson, upon seeing that they were students, remained indifferent the whole time. After all, the average selling price of phones at this counter was around 50,000 Bett, which was not something that students could afford, and the deluxe gold edition even reached a staggering 200,000 Bett. It was impossible for students without their parents to accompany them.
Since they knew that the two couldn't afford it, it was natural for the salesperson to have this attitude.
Indeed... no wonder, after all, I am poor. But that's only limited to me.
So, Ryuto spoke to Hiyori.
"Hiyori, did you bring the bank card you received this afternoon?"
"Oh, that one. Of course."
Saying that, Hiyori took out the card from her clothes. At that moment, Ryuto could clearly see that the salesperson's eyes seemed to emit a dazzling light, and correspondingly, he immediately approached them with a smiling face, ready to strike up a conversation.
"Oh, how may I address you, miss?"
"Me? I'm Tsuchimikado Hiyori."
Hiyori was obviously not used to the salesperson's sudden change in attitude.
"So, you're Miss Hiyori. You came to buy a mobile phone, right? No problem, let me introduce to you right away."
Then, the salesperson began to talk non-stop. This contrast is too big, even though I had some expectations beforehand, I am still somewhat surprised. Is this the violence called money? I didn't expect the VIP guest card from the bank to have such great power.
"First, take a look at this model. This is the latest Crazy 8S, it's 5G compatible and has..."
The salesperson rattled off a bunch of professional terms. Ryuto glanced at the price and almost rolled his eyes. It was actually the deluxe gold edition priced at 280,000 Bett. This salesperson really knows how to rip people off. By the way, my phone is worth only around 10,000 Bett.And on the other hand...
"......"
Hiyori was bewildered by the sudden influx of unfamiliar words, showing a confused expression on her face.
But this scene changed when the salesperson said the next sentence.
"Moreover, this one and the one next to it are couple phones. If you buy both together, we can give you a discount, as long as 500000 Bett."
Upon hearing this, Hiyori's eyes seemed to emit a strange dazzling light, well, at least that's how it seemed to Ryuto.
As if something strange had been triggered, she muttered softly.
"Couple..."
As for what came afterwards, it seemed like she didn't really pay attention.
Should I say, the salesperson is indeed professional? Not letting go of this good opportunity, they immediately followed up when they saw Hiyori's reaction.
"Just as this young lady said, these two couple phones are the same except for the different colors on the outside. They are specially designed for couples. And if you buy now, you can also get a couple package for your phone number, with free calls between the two of you."
Same as before, it seemed like Hiyori only heard certain specific words.
But she suddenly turned around with great enthusiasm.
"Ryuto-sama, please tell me where you bought your phone."
"Uh..."
This sudden question left Ryuto a little confused.
"Let me ask, Hiyori, why do you want to know this?"
To this, Hiyori answered with a matter-of-fact tone.
"Of course, it's to buy the same as Ryuto-sama's. Because the other person said couple phones are specially designed for couples, and the couple phones are the same."
Couple --> Use a couple phone --> Use the same phone.
This logic... why do I feel like she misunderstood the salesperson's meaning in some inexplicable way?
"I'm using a cheap phone from a certain brand."
"No problem."
The response Ryuto received was still Hiyori's enthusiastic answer.
By the way, you don't actually know anything, do you? You're saying "no problem" despite the situation, but it seems like you can't hear anything I say, so Ryuto had to give up.
Just then, a stranger's voice came from the side.
"Using a certain brand, really giving off a poor and tasteless aura."
"Yes, and it looks like it suits you to use a cheap one."
Involuntarily, Ryuto turned his head to see a man and a woman standing in front of him. They were about the same age as Ryuto, but their clothing was vastly different. The man was wearing a certain brand's suit, and the woman was dressed fashionably. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be a real couple, hmm, they should be.
The man took out a credit card from his pocket and casually placed it on the counter.
"This card has 5000000 Bett. Bring out all the phones of this model from your store."
With that, he pointed his finger at the 280000 Bett certain brand gold luxury edition they were looking at earlier.
"Alright, please wait a moment."
After leaving those words, the salesperson left the counter with a smile on their face.
Damn, they actually have 5000000 Bett, they are indeed rich. Although I'm not sure, I remember Hiyori's card has more than ten zeroes in it, so if the person earlier was a rich person, then Hiyori can be said to be a real rich person, damn, one more ruthless than the other. But I can't say that, after all, the self-esteem of rich people is quite fragile, and it's not good to make him lose face in front of his "girlfriend".
At this moment, the salesperson who had left already came back, holding about ten phones in their hand and quickly completing the transaction.
Then the man spoke again.
"Give these to the people on the street."
"Uh..."
Although the salesperson was a little surprised, they still did as requested.
Then the man also looked at Ryuto before leaving, with a proud smile on his face.
"Don't ask why, being rich means being willful."
He left with these words, which had no clear meaning.
By the way, I didn't even ask... this person is thinking too much.
Afterwards, as expected, a crowd immediately gathered outside, who wouldn't want something for free.But soon came other voices.
"Are you intentionally blocking the road, ahead?"
After a fierce voice, the two men were soon surrounded by a few big men, while others stepped back.
The man just had a smug look on his face, no, it looked more like trembling.
"I... I didn't mean it."
"No? Today is the day we are helping the young master go out, and you intentionally let people block the way. Ah, you dare say you didn't mean it."
Seems like they encountered the mafia.
After being yelled at, the man trembled even more, tremblingly picking up something in his hand.
"Brothers... please accept this small gift from me."
Saying that, he handed over the object.
But...
"Ah... thinking it's so easy to settle, and even trying to get rid of us with this kind of thing, do you underestimate us, you bastard?"
Without even looking at the gift handed over, the big men directly took the man and woman away.
"Ah..."
Only the sound of screams remained.
This... this doesn't seem like being willful, but simply self-destructive on a strategic level. Clearly, if you don't seek death, you won't die. Sigh... the world of the wealthy is something that someone like me, a poor dick, cannot understand.
