Chapter 17 Buying a Car
"Brother Hai, do you have time tomorrow? Have lunch together if you have time?"
After drinking and eating, Zhang Da asked Lin Hai.
Lin Hai nodded and said, "Okay, I'm fine tomorrow, where can I eat?"
"Pre-set to Yilong Pavilion, I'll call and ask if there is a seat."
Speaking of which, there is also a two-star Michelin restaurant in the Peninsula Hotel.
After saying that, Zhang Da searched for a certain review and called directly.
He was lucky and successfully booked a private room.
…
After chatting for a while, the three of them were about to end.
Lin Hai asked Zhang Da: "Then I'll see you tomorrow. Why do you go back? Do you want me to send you there?"
Fan Jiang smiled proudly and rushed to answer: "No, brother, we have a car."
"Okay, then I won't care about you."
Outside the mansion, Lin Hai watched Fan Jiang sit in Rolls-Royce with a slutty place, shook his head helplessly, turned around to pick up the car in the parking lot.
…
At noon the next day, the three of them sat in the private room of Yilong Pavilion.
Lin Hai, who changed into a nautilus, asked Zhang Da: "Do you want to buy a sports car?"
"Yes," Zhang Da had already checked in advance for dinner. Hearing this, he smiled at Lin Hai a little embarrassedly, "I used to like sports cars. I have seen a lot in Macau and Shanghai these days, and I want to buy one."
"Normal, when I was as old as you, I also like sports cars. I wish I could change one a day," Lin Hai nodded in understanding, "What is your budget? Do you have any interest?"
"Well, it's about four or five million," Zhang Da planned to use up all the rewards for the novice mission. "The Mavericks or McLaren's 720s are all very popular, uh... If you have a big bull, you can get it even if you grit your teeth."
Lin Hai picked up the mobile phone on the table: "Okay, I'll ask you if there is any stock."
"Then I'll trouble Brother Hai."
"No trouble, I know their people. Lamborghini and McLaren are a family in Shanghai."
…
After a while, Lin Hai said:
"The Mavericks are not in stock, so you have to wait. There are 720s, convertible models. If you are interested, we can go and see the car in the afternoon."
Zhang Da smiled happily: "Okay, thank you so much, Brother Hai."
"polite."
Zhang Da ordered a set meal in advance today. After lunch, the three of them drove two cars to the McLaren Car Store on Hubin Road.
As soon as he entered the store, a middle-aged man in a suit came over and asked Lin Hai respectfully: "Hello, is it Mr. Lin?"
"Yes, it's me," Lin Hai nodded and patted Zhang Da's shoulder.
"My little brother is here to buy a car, just call him."
"Okay, okay, I'm the manager of this store. You can call me Lao Huang or Manager Huang. Please come in, have tea or coffee?"
After greeting Lin Hai, Manager Huang took Zhang Da to the front of a yellow McLaren 720s.
Zhang Da circled around the car, and the aerodynamic 720s was very handsome, and the large tail wing and exhaust pipe also touched Zhang Da's itch point.
"This is the new model this year," Manager Huang introduced to Zhang Da and gently lifted the car door. "Look, this is our McLaren's unique butterfly door, because this door is spreading out when it opens, it's very much like a butterfly spreading its wings... You can sit in and feel it."
Zhang Da nodded and sat in the cab.
“The leg room is not very comfortable.”
"You can try moving the seat back."
Manager Huang said and continued to introduce Zhang Da.
"The coverage in our car, including the seats, is made of carbon fiber material. Look at the three buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, namely the front trunk, the lock car and the instrument.
Our dashboard can be rotated, and now it is a regular instrument. You can switch the panel by pressing the button. Only gears, speeds and vehicle speeds are displayed on the switched panels."
Zhang Da whistled in his heart: ‘It’s so cool!’
"The one on the right side of the steering wheel is the home screen, and the rotary button on the left side of the screen is used to switch driving mode..."
Fan Jiang also got into the co-pilot now: "This car is good, but the steering wheel is too simple."
Indeed, the reverse wheel in front of Zhang Da only has two paddles except for one McLaren logo.
"It's good, I like it very much," Zhang Da nodded and asked Manager Huang, "Can you test drive? I bought it if there is no problem."
"Yes, give you the key, put the key close to the START key..."
After pressing the "START" button on the shift key, the yellow sports car instantly made a pleasant roar.
Close the door, Zhang Da watched Manager Huang clear the way forward for him, and carefully stepped on the accelerator in "comfortable" mode.
He slowly drove the car out of the side door of the car shop, Zhang Da stepped on the brakes, and slowly turned the car in.
Fan Jiang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked, "How is it?"
Zhang Da parked the car firmly: "The brakes are a little hard, everything else is pretty good."
After getting off the bus, he said to Manager Huang: "This car is pretty good. I want it. You can quote me a price. In addition, can this car be transported to Jinling for me?"
Manager Huang happily said, "Of course, please give us an address later. Please sit down, and you may also have some options to check out."
After some selections, Manager Huang called out another staff member in a suit, and after calculation, he quoted a final price of 3.86 million yuan.
It is much lower than the landing price of 4 million yuan found on Zhang Da.
He looked at Lin Hai, saw that the other party nodded at him, and then said, "Okay, I'll pay in full."
"Okay, you wait."
After all, it was the customer who the boss said hello. Manager Huang didn't look surprised on his face and took Zhang Da's bank card with both hands.
Afterwards, the staff in the store gave Zhang Da a model of a McLaren sports car and three mobile phone cases made of carbon fiber, and Manager Huang even brought a bottle of red wine.
After fiddling with the model, Zhang Da, who found that he could not open the car door, waved his hand: "Don't drive the wine, you're all here."
"Okay, if you like, you can also take this bottle of red wine away," Manager Huang put the wine on the table. "Why would you take a photo with the new car?"
“This can be there.”
Looking at the yellow car running in front of him, Zhang Da was also a little excited and even felt a little unrealistic.
Such a vehicle that once only appeared in his dreams is now owned by him.
After Zhang Da took a photo with the new car, Manager Huang stepped forward to ask for the delivery address.
"Uh, can I deliver it in two days?"
After thinking about his own "traffic" community, Zhang Da asked.
"Of course, please see if we add WeChat. It's easy for you to send me a message if you send me a car," Manager Huang picked up his phone. "We have kept your new car for you these days and ensure that no one will touch this car."
Zhang Da nodded: "Okay, thank you."
The two added WeChat, and Fan Jiang suggested, "How about it? Why don't you go out and take a walk?"
Zhang Da was very moved: "Yes, let's go!"
"Okay, you go and have a walk around, I'll leave first," Lin Hai walked over and said to Zhang Da, "I will stay in China for a while. If you have time, you can come to play with me."
"Okay, thank you Brother Hai today."
Zhang Da thanked repeatedly, and he knew in his heart that without Lin Hai, he would definitely not be able to get the price.
"Why are you polite? I have known each other for so many years." Lin Hai smiled and said to Manager Huang, "Thank you today, and I will also help me say hello to you Mr. Li."
