“A living room measuring more than one hundred square meters?” The salesman was dumbfounded after listening to Jacob’s answer. After that, he could not help but blurt out, “That is too huge, isn’t it?”
Jacob chuckled before he said, “My house is the biggest villa at Thompson First. So, how could the living room possibly be small?”
The salesman was shocked at this time and he hurriedly said, “Sir, you have such a big living room that it would only be natural for you to buy more furniture so the living room will look less empty!”
After that, the salesman hurriedly led him to a Lexington sofa set before he said, “Sir, this is our 3 + 2 + 2 + 1 Lexington sofa set which is custom-made for all of our villa owners. This Lexington sofa set can seat up to eight people! It is very elegant and classy, and it can fit all of your guests when they visit your house.”
Jacob stepped forward to touch the armrest of the sofa. He was very satisfied with the smooth feel of the sofa set. At this time, he asked curiously, “How much is this sofa set?”
The other party quickly replied, “Sir, this sofa set is made out of Hainan Lexington wood. Therefore, the material and quality of the wood is very good. If you like it, we can sell it to you at a discounted price of 1.98 million dollars!”
“What!” Jacob was extremely startled when he heard the price of the sofa set. “This is too expensive!”
The salesman quickly explained, “Sir, this sofa set is made out of premium quality Hainan Lexington wood. Therefore, it is naturally more expensive. However, your villa at Thompson First must be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Since it is such a luxurious villa, it is only befitting if you buy this luxurious and elegant sofa set!”
Elaine frowned as she said, “What kind of sofa set would cost two million dollars? Is our whole family going to sleep on the sofa set after we buy this?”
Jacob glared at Elaine before he looked at the salesman with an embarrassed expression on his face. After that, he said, “This sofa set is a little over our budget. Do you have any other cheaper sofa sets instead? For instance, wouldn’t the price of a Burmese Lexington wood be much lower compared to the Hainan Lexington wood?”
The salesman quickly replied, “The Burmese Lexington sofa set costs around one million dollars but we do not have any ready stock now.”
After he was done speaking, the salesman added, “Most people who are really into Lexington wood would still prefer to buy the Hainan Lexington wood. After all, the Burmese Lexington wood is really not up to standard.”
Jacob smacked his lips together and he could not help but feel a little disappointed.
If he had really decided to buy the sofa set for two million dollars, he would really be exceeding their budget by too much.
After all, they were not only going to be shopping for a sofa set today. They would still have to shop for other furniture and home appliances for the living room and two bedrooms, as well as the dining room.
They did not need to get such good or expensive furniture for the bedroom and dining room. Therefore, they could just spend a few hundred thousand dollars on the bedrooms and dining room. However, even if he wanted to invest in a good sofa set, he could not exceed the budget of 1.4 million dollars.
Therefore, Jacob hurriedly asked the salesman, “If I want to order a set of the Burmese Lexington sofa set, how long would it take for the stock to arrive?”
“This…” The other party thought for a moment before he said, “I guess it would probably take about one month. After all, you should know that it is not easy to purchase this kind of wood. After purchasing the wood, we need to send it to the processing plant for it to be processed. After that, it will take some time for the factory to send the sofa set to Aurous Hill.”
“That will be too long…”
Jacob felt that it was just simply impossible for them not to have a sofa set in the living room after they moved into the villa as a family.
Therefore, it seemed as though he could only take a look at some cheaper alternatives instead.
As he was thinking about it, Jacob suddenly heard a very familiar voice. “Is the boss here? Do you accept secondhand furniture here? I’d like to sell my Hainan Lexington sofa set!”
Jacob subconsciously turned around to look in the direction of the voice. At this time, he saw his brother, Christopher, stepping into the shop.
Christopher really did not expect to meet Jacob and his whole family at the furniture shop. When he thought about the miserable state that he was in right now, he wanted to turn around and leave immediately.
At this time, a man suddenly walked forward and looked at Jacob before he asked, “Were you the one who said that you wanted to sell your Hainan Lexington sofa set?”
