Chapter 890: Custom Made
Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er arrived in Yuegang and were warmly entertained by the Shen Family. After spending a night in the Shen family’s luxurious mansion, it was coincidental that it was the weekend when Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er came to Yuegang. Shen Yao was particularly delighted and could take Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er shopping around, so the next day the three of them went shopping together to acquire the necessary items.
Shen Yao glanced at Ding Wan’er’s shopping list and immediately decided on one thing, that the first item to purchase would be various furniture and appliances inside the villa. These items were quite easy to handle, so a trip to the most famous home furnishing city in Yuegang would essentially cover everything needed. Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er heard Shen Yao’s arrangement and had no objections, as these items needed to be purchased eventually, whether sooner or later.
Lin Feng drove Shen Yao’s sports car, with both ladies accompanying him, and under Yao Yao’s guidance, the trio quickly arrived at Yuegang’s most renowned Gangchao Home City. Upon arrival, Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er finally understood why Shen Yao’s first stop was here. The home furnishing city was truly vast, roughly estimated to cover hundreds of thousands of square meters. Just strolling through this furnishing city could take more than a day.
Once the three entered the furnishing city and saw that it contained all the most famous domestic and international brands with trendy styles and high quality, their moods improved greatly. They started browsing according to different zones, and since the first thing they saw was the furniture section, the trio immediately lit up the area, with Shen Yao and Ding Wan’er evaluating various wardrobes, sofas, and bedding. Lin Feng followed behind the two women without saying much, just strolling through the furniture section with them.
Suddenly, both Ding Wan’er and Shen Yao’s eyes lit up, and coincidentally, they walked toward an exceedingly beautiful fabric sofa. Seeing that both had set their eyes on this sofa set, they instantly smiled at each other.
"Sister Wan’er, our tastes really aren’t bad, ey? We locked onto it immediately," Shen Yao said while holding Ding Wan’er’s hand, laughing happily. She was genuinely pleased that she and Ding Wan’er could pick this sofa set, which was indeed very beautiful—a sapphire blue sofa that perfectly matched the Mediterranean-style decor of the villa.
"Yes, Yaoyao, this sofa set really suits our home, let’s go for this one, what do you think?" Ding Wan’er was also very pleased, not expecting to stumble upon such a wonderful sofa set so quickly, indeed a great find. Such a product would likely not be found so easily in Tianhai; evidently, shopping in Yuegang was the right decision.
"Sister Wan’er, of course, I think this sofa set is very suitable. I’ve seen the home renovation design, and under those colors and ambiance, this sofa set couldn’t be more perfect," Shen Yao responded immediately upon hearing Ting Wan’er’s thoughts. She had already reviewed the new home’s design and felt this sofa set was a perfect match, almost as if it was custom-made.
"Lin Feng, what do you think? If you also like it, let’s finalize this sofa set," Ding Wan’er said, her interest obviously piqued after hearing Shen Yao’s agreement. She turned to Lin Feng to hear his thoughts, wanting to know what he thought and if he agreed, they could finalize the decision.
"I also think it’s not bad. Alright, let me speak with their staff first," Lin Feng truly felt the sofa set was not bad at all. Since Ding Wan’er and Shen Yao liked it as well, that was good enough for him. However, Lin Feng suddenly remembered something, hence he mentioned needing to speak with someone from the store, to see if they could achieve what he wanted.
Thinking this, Lin Feng waved his hand to beckon the store’s staff. When the staff saw Lin Feng waving, he promptly walked over from assisting other customers to inquire if Lin Feng needed help.
"Hello, sir, may I assist you with anything?" the staff member, seeing Lin Feng and the two elegantly dressed ladies, respectfully inquired.
"Is your store manager around? I’d like to discuss something with him," Lin Feng lightly replied, as the matter really needed to be discussed with the store manager, and talking with an ordinary staff member would not have much meaning.
"Sir, our store manager is here, please wait a moment, I will invite our store manager over," the staff member responded respectfully, bowing slightly as he retreated. Although he had no idea what the young man wanted, professional ethics told him that any request from a customer was valid, and he could only follow Lin Feng’s request to fetch the store manager.
Ding Wan’er and Shen Yao were momentarily taken aback, finding the situation somewhat puzzling. They didn’t understand Lin Feng’s intention; he had already taken a liking to the sofa, yet he still asked for the store manager. What exactly was Lin Feng planning to do? The pair couldn’t figure it out and could only watch from the sidelines.
Soon after, the store manager came over and approached Lin Feng, following the guidance he had received from the staff earlier.
"Hello, sir, how may I assist you?" the manager asked very kindly, displaying great cultivation.
"It’s like this, I feel that the dimensions of this sofa set are a bit small, I wanted to ask if your brand accepts customization?" Lin Feng stated his request to the manager as soon as he arrived. In fact, Lin Feng had a reason for thinking this because the size of the sofa set indeed seemed a bit small. He had designed the layout for his new home, and he was very clear about the measurements. If possible, he wanted this store to do the customization to achieve the best result.
"Sir, as the most famous brand from The Netherlands, we do accept private customizations, but it’s quite expensive. I’m not sure how you would want to customize it. If possible, you can tell me your requirements, and I will communicate with our headquarters to see if they can accept it. What do you think, sir?"
Hearing this young man’s question, the store manager took another look at Lin Feng. Although he appeared no different from other young men on the surface, the manager, being experienced and knowledgeable, sensed that this young man was certainly not ordinary. Considering this, the manager immediately asked respectfully, wanting to know exactly how Lin Feng wanted to customize.
"That’s quite simple. For this sofa set here, I’ll give you a dimension, and you can make it based on that. Also, if possible, I’d like you to match the coffee table and the cabinets in the living room as well. That would be great. Oh and, I would like to order two separate sets of this style, planning to put them in the guest rooms. Could you communicate this with your headquarters? Money is not an issue."
Hearing Lin Feng’s straightforward request, which was fairly simple, the store manager felt the deal should likely be accepted. As for the issue of money, Lin Feng hadn’t even considered it, as money was merely a number to him at this stage.
"Very well, sir, I will communicate with our headquarters right now, please wait a moment," the store manager said, relieved upon hearing Lin Feng’s statement. Since money was not a concern, things would be easier. The headquarters should not reject this business. After speaking, the store manager left to make a call to the headquarters.
"Lin Feng, it’s good that I brought you along, or we would have overlooked this issue," Shen Yao looked at Lin Feng and said with a smile, genuinely surprised by these details. She had originally thought buying them would be the end of it. She hadn’t considered private customization before and was not aware that furniture could be customized. Luckily, she had brought Lin Feng along; otherwise, if the furniture didn’t fit, it would be troublesome, not because of money, but because of the hassle.
"Lin Feng, you always think things through," Ding Wan’er smiled at Lin Feng, genuinely pleased. Lin Feng always seemed to be so thorough—she had overlooked this issue before, and now she fully agreed with Lin Feng’s approach. It was perfect to get everything settled in one go.
"It’s nothing, just a small matter," Lin Feng said nonchalantly. In reality, it wasn’t a big deal; he just noticed something the women had missed, which wasn’t much.
Just as Lin Feng finished speaking and was planning to look around the store again with the ladies, the store manager came over.
"Sir, the headquarters has agreed, as long as you provide the dimensions, we guarantee the quality. They have instructed us to assign someone to liaise with you. You just need to pay a deposit now and leave an address. Whenever it’s convenient for you, we will have someone come over to serve."
The store manager had communicated with the headquarters and expressed the value of this client. Naturally, the headquarters would not miss out on such an opportunity and directed how to proceed. Therefore, after returning, the store manager immediately relayed the headquarters’ decision.
"Alright, that sounds good. Yaoyao, leave the address, and we can discuss this matter separately later. Here is the deposit." Lin Feng said nonchalantly and handed over a deposit of fifty thousand Euros to the manager. The arrangement by the manager was quite suitable since the place was too crowded to discuss such matters comprehensively. If this store could provide complete private customization, then it was better to settle all furniture needs here. If not, he could personally design it, which was also feasible.
Shen Yao, hearing Lin Feng’s instructions, went over to the manager and softly mentioned the Shen Family mansion. Then she left the store with Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er, leaving the manager standing dumbfounded. How could he not know where the Shen Family was located? He had not expected these individuals to be from the Shen Family. This business would indeed bring in a considerable profit, but the manager was more curious about who this young man was, since he had two extremely beautiful women with him—certainly, his identity was no simple matter!
