Chapter 369 Walking the streets with a girl
We made a plan to go to the Great Falls together last night, but we didn’t want to go right after waking up today. After all, everyone had not yet adjusted to the jet lag, and it was obvious that they were still mentally unrecovered the next day.
Furthermore, if you want to go to the Great Falls, you have to plan accordingly in advance, so today’s plan was temporarily changed to everyone going out to buy things together.
Regarding this result, Haruno Sawayama didn't think it mattered. Anyway, he had to stay for several days and had plenty of time, not to mention that he also wanted to visit downtown Toronto.
He didn't have any objections, and Mine Shiori naturally had no objections, but something that made her feel resentful was that Riho Morikawa also wanted to go with him.
In this regard, the considerate editor said that she was very innocent. She had originally wanted to come to Toronto to buy some clothes. The prices here were cheaper than those in the island country. It was rare to go abroad. How could she justify not buying anything?
What's more, shopping is a woman's nature. Even the deputy assistant with a relatively restrained personality couldn't help but feel a little moved after hearing what Riho Morikawa said.
Seeing this, Haruno Sawayama touched his chin and said, "If that's the case, let's go together."
"We are not familiar with the place here. Although there is no problem with language communication, it is better for us to do activities together." He added.
Canada also speaks English. After all, Riho Morikawa and Shiori Mine are from prestigious schools. Although there is still an unavoidable Japanese-English accent here, they are much better than ordinary islanders.
As for Haruno Sawayama's own English, it is relatively pure, because he did not learn it in a school in an island country, so he naturally does not have weird pronunciation habits.
Then there is the issue of public security abroad. Although Toronto is a big city between the United States and Canada, there are still some monsters and monsters wandering around the streets. Compared with several countries in Asia, the security here is really hard to let go. You have to make up your mind.
Haruno Sawayama was also worried about whether she would encounter any trouble if she asked Riho Morikawa to act with her deputy. If she followed him, not to mention whether he could avoid trouble, at least he would still have the ability to solve trouble.
Come to think of it, Canada doesn't have the custom of hitting people with BIUBIU on the street. If they were just ordinary robbers, and they encountered me with a perverted physical condition, I would probably have to admit that I was unlucky.
Seeing what Sawayama Haruno said, Morikawa Riho immediately persuaded with a smile: "That's right, Azusa, Kiriyama-sensei doesn't mind what you are afraid of. Let this big boss pay for our shopping later!"
< br>
She would not miss any good opportunity to kill Haruno Sawayama. She had been working as a cow for so long, how could she get no reward at all?
Although Haruno invited Haruno twice before, her appetite was pitifully limited and she didn't eat much at all. She couldn't trick Haruno Sawayama at all. This time was a good opportunity given by God!
"Okay."
Hearing this, Haruno Sawayama also said cheerfully: "The copyright tax will be paid anyway, so just buy whatever you want to buy today."
Haruno Sawayama, who has achieved financial freedom, does not lack this at all. The most important thing is related to Mine Shiori, so he just took the opportunity to give him a small gift.
Anyway, we will become a family sooner or later. Sawayama Haruno still has nothing to say about treating his own people and is very willing to spend money.
In his view, money is for spending, and you can just make money after you spend it. He has no shortage of ways and means to make money.
Ever since he came to live alone in Tokyo, he has basically never wronged himself. Although it would not be described as "squandering", he spent a lot of money in three years of high school and one year of college.
Before he started writing the novel, he bought a lot of things because he lived with Maki Miyazawa, and spent all the savings from his previous job.
Haruno Sawayama said something so irresistible. Mine Shiori on the side pursed her lips and smiled, and followed Riho Morikawa's advice, and then they went back to the room to change clothes with some excitement.
Haruno Sawayama didn't care. He just wore a velvet plaid shirt and set off, but the three women obviously had to waste a lot of time.
Finally, after he sat on the sofa and played with his mobile phone for half an hour, several people finally came out of the room.
The one who attracted the most attention was Mine Shiori. She was petite than anyone else. Today, for the first time, she changed into a slightly mature look.
Wearing a blue knitted sweater and slim-fitting denim trousers, the coat is an oversized white woolen coat. She also wore a cute little hat, which revealed a bit of childishness despite her maturity. , so much so that Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
After Riho Morikawa noticed it, she immediately puffed up her chest in dissatisfaction, and her already proud body trembled slightly at this subtle movement.
She wore something that showed off her figure more than Shiori Mine. In such a cold weather, she still insisted on wearing a dress that exposed her navel. She only chose a thicker jacket and even wore shorts below her knees. Dressed in socks, a small piece of white and tender thigh meat was exposed, looking very disgusting.
As for the last second-in-command, he seemed a bit more regular. He was very well-dressed and looked a bit like a student on a trip. However, perhaps it was influenced by the temperament of the two people around him, but overall he looked good.
After Sawayama Haruno looked at the three of them, he touched his chin and began to wonder if he should go back to the room and change his clothes.
They dressed up a little too seriously, and their makeup was clearly applied with care. I just casually put on a coat and went out, feeling a little out of place with a few others.
"It's done, let's go, let's go."
Riho Morikawa didn't give Haruno Sawayama any time to dwell on it. She waved her hand energetically and was about to lead everyone towards the large shopping mall in downtown Toronto.
Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno had no choice but to give up his previous thoughts and followed a few others out of the villa's door.
The driver had already received the news that they were going out in advance, and had already prepared the car in the direction of the door.
As the only male in the crowd besides the driver, Haruno Sawayama was naturally pushed to the passenger seat by Riho Morikawa. Fortunately, he didn't mind. After all, even if he sat with Mine Shiori, he would not be able to sit in the car due to the Not much can be done in the small space.
Today's task is just to go shopping.
Taking a business nanny car, the few people were quickly led by the driver to Eaton Center, the largest shopping mall in Toronto.
This is not a shopping mall in the traditional sense. Foreign shopping malls are actually somewhat different from island countries and the countries in Haruno's previous life. The biggest difference is that foreign shopping malls are actually more of a commercial shopping street type.
The shopping mall in Asia is a huge building filled with various buildings, not arranged in the form of streets.
They only differ in layout style. They are essentially shopping malls that provide goods. However, the one where Haruno and the others came looks quite luxurious. It’s not clear how many floors there are, but the transparent skylight above the head and dozens of seagull statues hanging there do look quite exotic. There is even a clean white piano in the center of the first floor of the mall, surrounded by The barrier-free zone is obviously open to the public.
It's a pity that Haruno Sawayama has not learned music-related skills so far, so this white piano is not attractive to him. After a few glances, he quickly turned his attention to the shops nearby. superior.
At this moment, Riho Morikawa had already taken her deputy assistant and ran excitedly to a store that specializes in selling coats. It is indeed one of the three most popular items for women when shopping. If you want to ask what the other two items are, they are only jewelry. High heels can compete with a coat.
Haruno Sawayama quickly lost his original interest in the activities of the two of them. He turned to look at Mine Shiori next to him and asked, "Won't Shiori go with them to have a look?"
"Me?"
Feng Shiori looked down at herself, and then whispered: "Forget it, I'm not suitable for wearing that style of clothes."
Her figure is a bit too petite, barely even 1.5 meters tall. Even among women from the island country, she is considered relatively short.
In fact, the appearance evaluation of men and women in the island country has changed slightly over the years. In the past, many people would laugh at tall women with unpleasant titles such as "Tokyo Tower", but this has decreased a lot in recent years.
And men have gradually changed from being tall and demanding at the beginning, to the fact that it doesn't matter if they are shorter boys, because most island girls feel that short boys are more likely to arouse their motherly nature, which is the so-called protection. want.
The most intuitive point is an anime that Haruno Sawayama watched in his previous life. The heroine with a big sister appearance is paired with a dark and dwarf hero. After the rise of this anime, it also successfully led this new trend of appearance in the island country again. up a step.

However, according to Sawayama Haruno's own judgment, girls can be taller or shorter, but boys should be as tall as possible.
"Then let's go see something else?"
Mimine Shiori was reluctant to look at the coat, and Sawayama Haruno thought about it and made a new suggestion.
The shop next to the coats happened to be an antique shop. With Mine Shiori's personality, maybe it would be more suitable to visit this kind of shop.
The so-called second-hand store actually means second-hand market. The earliest origin of the word medieval was also developed from the island country. This is also related to the most famous "bubble economy" of the island country.
In the 1980s, the emergence of the bubble economy also caused the islanders at that time to squander their inflated money and continue to purchase a large number of luxury goods.
This is not a situation that only occurs in individual families, but in the "bubble" that lasted for several years, almost all families began to spend uncontrollably.
After the "bubble" was ruthlessly burst, a large number of families began to frequently trade previously purchased luxury goods in order to replenish their own finances, and second-hand stores also emerged.
It is precisely because the bubble era has been long ago that a large number of items sold in second-hand stores are no longer produced, so they have the value of antiques, but the value is not particularly high, and they are good for collection.
It was not groundless for Sawayama Haruno to judge that Mine Shiori would like this kind of store. After all, Mine Shiori was the kind of literary girl. Compared with luxurious diamond jewelry and the like, she might prefer those that have a sense of the times and are very special. Something special, something hard to get again.
What's more, this is a second-hand store (second-hand store) in Canada, and the things sold there are definitely different from what she saw in Tokyo.
Sure enough, after Haruno Sawayama pointed to the shop next to him, Mine Shiori's eyes quickly lit up and he became slightly interested in this shop.
Seeing this, Sawayama Haruno pulled her in without saying a word.
Even in Canada, the interior layout of second-hand stores is the same. A large number of goods are randomly placed on the floor and on the shelves, as if they cannot highlight the temperament of antiques if they are not placed this way. Haruno Sawayama can't bear it. I cursed several times in my heart.
He focused on Mine Shiori the whole time, so when the other party's eyes were fixed on an old-fashioned record player, Sawayama Haruno immediately understood.
"Boss, how much does this cost?"
He pointed to the unique old-fashioned record player and communicated with the store owner in fluent English.
The boss looked a bit middle-aged and bald, and his cheeks were rosy and were obviously blown by the wind. After hearing what Haruno Sawayama asked, he said without thinking: "Five hundred Canadian dollars, you can take it away. This is already the cheapest price.”
"?"
Haruno Sawayama immediately noticed something was wrong when he heard it. Are you selling me an old record player for five hundred Canadian dollars? What record player is worth that much?
No, you still have to bargain. The owner of this shop obviously wants to take advantage of out-of-town tourists, and he probably saw that he wanted to give it to Feng Shiori, thinking that he was a man and would be embarrassed in front of women. Bargain the price, so the astronomical figure comes out.
Although Haruno Sawayama was rich, he was not stupid and could not really spend five hundred Canadian dollars to buy this old record player with a serious premium.
So he quoted again: "For fifty Canadian dollars, you can pay it on the spot. If not, we can go to a store below and have a look."
"Fifty??"
The shop owner's eyes widened and he looked at Haruno Sawayama in bewilderment.
This is really the ultimate fucking invincible dragon-slaying knife. The store owner almost fainted with the knife. This kid didn't come here to buy anything sincerely, right?
Fifty Canadian dollars is barely enough for him to repay one-third of his money!
"No, three hundred Canadian dollars is really too low."
The store owner took a step back and even introduced the old record player to the two. It was at this time that Haruno Sawayama also understood that this was an antique steam record player from the last century and had been discontinued for who knows how many years.
Logically speaking, such items can be sold for a sky-high price, but the store owner's record player has long been damaged and cannot work properly. It can only be displayed for viewing, so he wanted to sell it to them for a few hundred yuan.
