Chapter 27
: Unexpected
The squinty-eyed, short man's expression changed at a speed comparable to a rocket. Qiao Yuan's eyes flickered slightly; it was just as he expected.
It still has to be sales, which means speed.
He wasn't angry at all; instead, he grinned and said, "Aren't you afraid of getting into an accident with a 15 yuan used car? Don't you have any good cars around here?"
The short, squinty-eyed man was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Stop pretending. If you're poor, don't buy a car. You think you can play these smear games with me? Get out! Or I'll sue you for defamation and have you arrested, you believe me?"
"Don't you have any used hovercrafts worth 300,000 here?" Qiao Yuan took out his phone, pretending to reply to a message, and deliberately showed the man his balance.
Soon, other salespeople came from afar after hearing the news. At that moment, the squinty-eyed man's eyes widened. He wasn't mistaken; there was a balance of a full 41!
For a used car worth 300,000, the commission is enormous, and in Huanxi State, only a minority can actually afford a brand new luxury car worth millions.
His heart skipped a beat, and after gritting his teeth slightly, he quickly coughed and said, "Mr. Qiao is indeed a young man of great talent and ability. I was rude just now. I was just being sarcastic. Please forgive me. This way, please. A used car worth 300,000 is considered a flagship here."
The conflict between the Zero Clan and Legalist Heavy Industries has been escalating recently, and a second explosion could happen any day. He also wants to make more money.
He couldn't bear to give away the lucrative deal he had already secured, especially a huge one worth 300,000!
Qiao Yuan smiled faintly as he followed the squinting eyes to a VIP private room. He watched as the other party displayed a large number of holographic projections about used cars priced at 300,000 on a white round table. Various parameters, comparisons, performance, and after-sales service information popped up page after page of holographic interfaces.
During the process, he sometimes nodded and sometimes shook his head. In the end, he selected a 336,000 RMB [Fajia Heavy Industry] S10 hydrogen-powered SUV levitation vehicle, which was 90% new. The current market price for a brand new one is 450,000 RMB.
"Mr. Qiao has a keen eye for talent. This car is excellent. It has plenty of horsepower, a large interior, advanced hovering capabilities, and intelligent driving throughout the journey."
With a squinty eye, he swept his hand across the round table, and another light blue holographic contract popped up.
Qiao Yuan licked his lips and looked around.
The man with the narrow eyes was very good at reading people, and immediately smiled apologetically, "I almost forgot, Mr. Qiao, would you like coffee or juice?"
"Coffee," Qiao Yuan said calmly.
"Okay, shall we add sugar?"
He asked solicitously, and after confirming all the details, he immediately went to collect it himself.
A single order worth 300,000 is rare, with most orders around 100,000 or 200,000, and a small number around 200,000. For orders over 200,000, you have to compete with other salespeople for customers.
Qiao Yuan waited patiently, pondering whether or not to tell Yan Baobao about the revolution scheduled for the day after tomorrow, the 17th.
I think I'll say it anyway.
Then don't let the baby go out.
Get on board as soon as there's a sign, or even get on board early and start driving, turning a passive situation into an active one.
A moment later, a man with squinty eyes walked into the VIP room carrying a steaming cup of coffee, a smile on his face: "Mr. Qiao, your coffee."
Qiao Yuan took the coffee, took a sip, nodded slightly, and continued drinking. He pursed his lips and said, "Although you're outspoken and like to change your expression, you believe in making money through harmony in business. Your business skills are quite strong. Hmm, the coffee is also pretty good. It's very thoughtful."
With his squinting eyes and unwavering smile, he said, "Mr. Qiao is absolutely right. We also offer nutritious lunches here, provided free of charge. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait a bit."
"Hmm, that's good," Qiao Yuan put down his coffee cup and glanced at the doorway out of the corner of his eye. "It's a pity you entered with your left foot first; it's bad luck. Let's not buy it for now."
With that, he got up and left, leaving behind a squinty-eyed man standing there dumbfounded.
"no?"
"Hello!"
Qiao Yuan then bought a black hovercar for 13 yuan from another used car dealership across the street. It was also made by [Fajia Heavy Industry] and had full intelligent driving capabilities.
He hates people who look down on others, especially when it's clearly the other person's problem.
He made up the extra 30,000 yuan by placing bets at the boxing gym, which was a bit of a hassle, but the day after tomorrow is the 17th, so he couldn't worry about it.
When he got home, he brought watermelon, which his baby loves, and durian pizza from King George's. He parked the hovercar outside on the balcony, raised his hand, and called out to his baby who had just woken up, "Look!"
The baby, who had just woken up in the bedroom, looked on in surprise, his eyes wide with astonishment: "Did you go to buy a car? Where did you get the money?"
"A used car," Qiao Yuan said, pushing open the window and stepping directly in from the balcony.
He casually placed the fruit on the ground, drew the curtains, coughed twice, and said, "I just heard a rumor that something big will happen early the day after tomorrow. Caesar is preparing for a revolution."
Yan Baobao's eyelids twitched as she listened. After learning Zhao Hu's secret from Qiao Yuan earlier, she firmly believed it.
Qiao Yuan, who is usually very frugal, actually spent over 100,000 yuan to buy a used car today. She could sense that the situation might be more serious than she had imagined. At this moment, her gaze towards Qiao Yuan confirmed her suspicions.
"Okay, I understand."
Yan Baobao took a deep breath, then emphasized again, "But you need to tell me about the money, in detail."
Qiao Yuan nodded, sat on the sofa, and explained to the baby in detail about the recent stock purchases, also mentioning Hu Tu and the advice and reference from Hu Tu's father.
He knew that the baby was worried that he might go astray, and that he would be particularly concerned about it most of the time.
Afterward, he stored self-heating cooked food, water, and some medicine in the portable refrigerator on the hovercraft.
"Remember to come back early tomorrow." After he finished, he instructed Yan Baobao, who was combing her hair, "If you can't, leave early."
"Yes, I know," Yan Baobao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
At noon, the baby only ate some fruit and durian pizza. In the evening, despite being on holiday, he received an emergency dispatch from the bureau.
"Tonight might be a bit busy." Yan Baobao quickly changed into her black mecha suit.
Qiao Yuan nodded slightly, watched the baby leave, and then continued practicing the Canghai Force.
There's one day left.
Before he knew it, he was practicing with great enthusiasm. Just as he was about to take a sip of water, a fire suddenly broke out at the Legalist Heavy Industry No. 062 Psionic Factory in the distance outside the window. The fire spread rapidly, which startled Qiao Yuan.
"Oh no! Is this happening ahead of schedule?"
"The baby hasn't come home yet!"
He felt a chill run down his spine instantly, grabbed his phone without hesitation, and jumped from the balcony into the hovercar.
