Chapter 138 Buying a Car
"Huh."
Fang Zhitong sat aside and just sneered.
Geng Chaozhong suddenly remembered that his cowhide seemed to be a little blown!
Who is Fang Zhitong, this guy is a proper rich second generation!
Of course, there is also a "former" word, which is the second generation of the former rich.
In short, buying a car must be a small scene in Fang Zhitong's opinion.
Xiao Yi was very excited, drove the car, and it didn't take long to arrive at the destination.
Wynn Auto is located at No. 56 Taiping Road, which is surrounded by mountains and seas, with beautiful scenery and European-style villas, and is the richest area of the island city where people are qualified to live.
The three of them got out of the car and came to the front of a small two-story western-style building, and in front of this western-style building there is a huge warehouse, about 300 square meters.
In the prime area of Taiping Road, where every inch of land is at a premium, it is absolutely appalling to build such a luxurious warehouse. But for Wynn Auto, which specializes in American cars, it is a must.
In the bungalow, a handsome car salesman walked out, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, bow tie and back, dressed very foreignly, he walked in front of Geng Chaozhong and his party, bowed slightly, and said:
"Several gentlemen, the student's name is Zhou Hongchuan, and he is the car book of Wynn Auto Dealership. What kind of car do you want? Our store specializes in Ford, Buick and other cars from the United States of America, from convertibles to Beetles, from civilian to military, in black, white and red. ”
The carapace car is the so-called bulletproof car in later generations.
During the Republic of China, Principal Chang was riding in a Ford bulletproof car.
"We want a few reception cars, just open tops, preferably bulletproof."
Geng Chaozhong replied while looking at Zhou Hongji's expression.
However, the salesperson of this 4S store did not show any flattery to Geng Chaozhong, a big customer who proposed to buy a few cars, and still had a professional smile on his face.
"Oh, it seems that you are a business or business car, in this case, I recommend you a few of the latest styles, all of which were imported from the United States last month, and now there is a discount, please follow me."
While talking, he led Geng Chaozhong and his party to the warehouse.
The Zhou Hongjian in front of him, although he looked polite, showed indescribable arrogance in his words.
But it's no wonder that in these years, to be able to sell cars, you must understand foreign languages, be able to drive, and understand certain car maintenance skills, which is already a high-end talent!
Geng Chaozhong has been looking for this talent recently!
Zhou Hong gradually led a few people into the warehouse, and as soon as he entered the warehouse, good guy!
All kinds of cars are neatly arranged like matchboxes, looking at the number, there are more than 20 cars, not much worse than the 4S shops of later generations!
"This is a Ford 130 that has just arrived, white paint, extremely rare, very suitable for business connections, Shanghai's Huang Huang boss has one; This is a Buick 35, specially equipped with bulletproof armor, excellent security, Guangdong General Chen Jitang Chen lived in Hong Kong, so he bought a ......"
Zhou Hong gradually introduced, and quietly glanced at a few guests - ordinary old hats, seeing such a scene, all of them opened their mouths and were ashamed of themselves speechless, such a big scene, such a strong momentum, it is a person who will feel ashamed of himself. And the more this psychology is generated, the more reluctant customers are to bargain. When the time comes, you can say a few words casually, and the customer's heart will be shaken, and the price will be completely controlled by yourself!
However, Zhou Hong gradually glanced at his eyes, but he didn't see the look he wanted to see.
Except for the guy who looked like a follower and couldn't speak, the other two people had a familiar expression, especially the bearded boss wearing sunglasses, and even glanced at the corner of his mouth with disdain.
How did he know, that eight-character bearded boss, the massive number of cars in the 4S store was turned a blind eye, and he had seen 100 brand-new tanks lined up, and this scene was a hammer!
A sour fire ignited in Zhou Hongji's heart, and the words he said had a bit of vinegar:
"Oh, depending on what the boss means, these vehicles still don't meet your requirements?"
A smile appeared at the corner of the boss's mouth in sunglasses, and he said:
"Not satisfied, not satisfied! It's all civilian level, is there anything else? ”
"Civilian?"
Zhou Hong was gradually amused, his mouth was crooked, and he said:
"Mayor Wu's car is a Ford 260, and you can't be satisfied with a 130? No more, this Buick 35, you can always use it, right? This is the car of Mr. Grace Kelly of the U.S. Consulate! ”
"Hahahaha!" The leading boss burst out laughing and said:
"It's not a secret, this Buick car is a child's house when it is bulletproof, and it is just a fool of outsiders who don't know how to do it! I came here because I heard that Wynn has a full range of car dealers, and I originally wanted to see if there was a Stippunk, but I didn't expect it to be some big road goods!
I see, this trip was in vain!
Xiaofang, let's go! ”
With that, he waved his hand, turned around and left.
Zhou Hong was stunned all of a sudden!
He pretended to be a gesture, originally wanting to suppress his opponent in momentum and make it easier for him to make a price, not that he really didn't want to sell the car!
Don't sell cars, he drinks the northwest wind?
This car is no better than anything else, not every day people come to buy it, a big customer who wants several cars is driven away by himself, I'm afraid I have to hit my head against the wall when I go back!
Thinking of this, Zhou Hong gradually rushed over with an arrow step, grabbed Geng Chaozhong's arm, and said:
"Don't worry, boss! We have an import and export trading line, what you want Stipunk, we can ship it to you! It's just that this price is a bit expensive! ”
"Expensive?"
Geng Chaozhong sneered.
"You think I look like a man who is short of money?!"
Zhou Hong gradually looked at Geng Chaozhong, the top hat of the big road goods, the robes of the big road goods, and the cloth shoes of the big road goods, at first glance, he was not a rich man, he wanted to answer the word "like", but now in this world, soldiers and bandits are troubled, and rich people are very low-key, what if he is really a rich man? !
Besides, you can't get along with anyone and you can't get along with money!
At least, if you can drive a car and say the words "Stippunk", then at least you have been abroad and seen the world!
You know, this Stippunk car, that is specially supplied to the US military, at this time the information is not developed, there are very few people who can know this, he Zhou Hongjian also occasionally heard an old-timer who came back from the United States talk about it.
But this car is not cheap, the usual Ford and Buick sedans are only 800 to 1500 US dollars, which is 2000 US dollars, but this Stippunk is at least 4000 US dollars!
Just this guy, can you really afford it? You can't be a liar, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Hong gradually became more thoughtful, and hurriedly asked:
"What's your last name, boss? If you want it, please leave your name, this Stippunk sedan is about 4,000 US dollars, you pay half of the car in advance, and come and pick it up in two months! ”
Geng Chaozhong looked at the guy in front of him, grinned, and said:
"The contemptible surname is Bai, but Stepunk's business is not in a hurry, my car always stalls, and the brakes always fail, I just want to find a car repairer, I don't know Mr. Zhou, do you know any good car repairers?"
Zhou Hongji's face was a little ugly, it was a car that broke down and came to repair the car, and he came to play with himself in the name of looking at the car!
That's right, many people come to find themselves, not to buy a car, but to repair it!
Who makes there be fewer people who can repair cars these years!
If you want him to make a move, don't even think about it without 50 oceans! That's it, it's still cheap, you want to find a foreigner, there are no 100 oceans, people don't even look at you!
That's it, I don't want to fix it!
Sweating and oily, how can you sell cars and make a lot of money!
He looked at the Boss Hu in front of him, and his words were a little unpolite:
"Since Boss Bai is not in a hurry, then you can come back another day, as for the car repair master, you can always find it if you ask the Germans and Japanese."
"Hey, you young man, why are you so breathless! I said that Stippunk is not in a hurry, but I didn't say that there is no urgency to buy a car! ”
The white boss waved his hand in an old-fashioned manner, pointed to a few cars in the warehouse, and said:
"Just what you just said about Ford 250, Buick 360 and the like, red, white and black two of the same color, all of them are available to me!"
"Ah?!!!h
Zhou Hongji's eyes straightened all of a sudden!
"Six?"
He asked, stammering.
"Nonsense! Three times two, I didn't learn arithmetic well in elementary school?! ”
Geng Chaozhong said impatiently, and then nodded to Xiao Yi next to him, Xiao Yi immediately opened the worn-out small suitcase in his hand, which contained $10 in US dollars, and put a whole suitcase!
Fang Zhitong, who was standing next to Geng Chaozhong, also opened his mouth wide!
I can't read it, I really can't understand it!
When did this big brother become so rich!
Could it be that the person I have befriended has always been a hidden rich man?!
"Boss Bai!"
Zhou Hong's knees gradually weakened, and he almost knelt on the ground, this is a super customer! Six cars, that's at least $8,000, enough to buy a bungalow on Taiping Road!
"What are you stunned about, hurry up and sign the contract, I'm busy!"
Geng Chaozhong waved his hand, and his domineering spirit was fully displayed!
"However, Lao Tzu must be given a discount! Otherwise, Lao Tzu will go to another car dealership! ”
Geng Chaozhong did not forget to threaten.
...........
"Boss, are you crazy?" Xiao Yi asked in a low voice beside him, and even Fang Zhitong looked at Geng Chaozhong with the eyes of a fool.
This car is not food, can it survive the winter if it is prepared?
Besides, if you buy so much at once, can you drive it?!
"Hey, you don't understand, I always had a dream when I was a child, that is, when I have money, I will buy two cars, one in front of the road, one in the back, and I will ride a bicycle in the middle! Today is considered to be overfulfilled! ”
Xiao Yi and Xiao Fang could only choke speechlessly.
After signing the contract and paying a full $7,000, Geng Chaozhong finally pocketed the six cars, but now there is no place to put them, so he has to temporarily store them at Wynn Auto Dealership.
"Xiao Zhou!"
Bought a car, this white boss seemed to become a character like his father in Zhou Hong's eyes, Zhou Hong gradually heard his father's call, and quickly wagged his tail, oh no, he trotted over with his buttocks.
"Boss Bai, what's the matter?"
"In addition to these six cars, you can order me that Stippunk saloon, and I'll come and pick it up in two months, no problem, right?" Geng Chaozhong tilted his chin with a nonchalant expression.
"No problem! No problem! Boss Bai, you can say anything! ”
Zhou Hong's face gradually flushed, and he agreed repeatedly.
"Okay, I'll leave first if there's nothing to do, remember, I'll come and pick up the car in two months!"
After Geng Chaozhong finished speaking, he led the two followers and left without looking back.
Zhou Hong gradually watched Boss Bai walk away, and suddenly remembered something!
Stippunk's deposit hasn't been paid yet!
I just wanted to raise my hand to stop Boss Bai, but then I thought that Boss Bai had already paid $7,000 to buy six cars, and the car was still parked here, so I asked him to come back and pay, isn't it too petty?
However, Wynn Auto has a rule that you must pay half of the deposit in advance to book a car from overseas, which is a rule and cannot be changed!
After a moment's hesitation, the white boss had already gotten into the car and walked away, and Zhou Hong's gradually raised hand couldn't help but slowly put it down.
Hey, forget it, it's a big deal to pad it yourself, isn't it just $2,000! That's all your net worth!
..............
In the Ford sedan that was drifting away, Geng Chaozhong's face was as calm as water.
"Do you know who owns Wynn Auto?" He asked suddenly.
"Liu Bancheng, the richest man in the island city, not only Wynn Auto Company, but the entire Taiping Road belongs to Liu Bancheng." Fang Zhitong pouted.
"Not only Taiping Road, half of Qingdao's houses are Liu Bancheng's."
After a while, Fang Zhitong suddenly added.
"Isn't your dad the richest man in the island city? When will Liu Bancheng come again? Geng Chaozhong asked with a smile.
Fang Zhitong's father, Fang Ming, has a family fortune of several million, known as the richest man in the island city, this Geng Chaozhong has always known, and at this time he took it out to make fun of Fang Zhitong.
"What kind of richest man is my dad," Fang Zhitong shook his head with a wry smile, "If he is smart, he shouldn't be the richest man, otherwise he won't end up like this." ”
Geng Chaozhong nodded.
Fang Zhitong's father is a traitor, but there are so many traitors in the island city, why is it Fang Zhitong's father who is thundering?
It's not because he is the richest man!
China is not the United States, and there is no Rockefeller - the gun shoots the first bird, the rich is not more than three generations, and it is the fine tradition of China to kill pigs when they are fattened.
For example, Fang Zhitong and his father said that he was the richest man in the past, but in fact, since Chen Shouting was forced to death by the Japanese, there has only been one richest man in the island city, and that is Liu Zishan, who is known as "Liu Bancheng".
From an early age, he worked as a cub for the Germans, that is, a slave, and later took refuge with the Japanese, and was fluent in German and Japanese.
His assets have long exceeded Chen Shouting, because compared to Chen Shouting, he can be said to have no bottom line at all, and his fortune is also by joining the Japanese during the Japanese occupation and selling tobacco to make the first pot of gold!
Later, he started to run lumber, real estate, banking, U.S. bonds, etc., and owned his own wholly owned bank, Donglai Bank, and was a shareholder in five other banks. The capital invested in any company is 450,000 US dollars, and Geng Chaozhong's current assets are only 300,000 US dollars!
According to Liu Yiban's internal information, this person's income in one year is equivalent to the total financial income of the entire island city for six years!
However, this person is extremely low-key, and since 25 years later, he has avoided living in Shanghai to become a public residence, which can be regarded as handing over the position of the richest man.
"See that building?"
Geng Chaozhong pointed to a three-story building outside the window.
"Party Building." Xiao Yi replied.
This is the Kuomintang Party Headquarters building at No. 27 Taiping Road.
This building was a gift from Liu Zishan to the government of the Republic of China after the island city was recovered by the Nanjing government in 29 years.
In fact, the number of houses and real estate owned by Liu Zishan is the first in the country!
This is a real top stealth plutoon!
"You know, why did this Liu Zishan take refuge in Shanghai?"
"Why?" Xiao Yi didn't speak, but Fang Zhitong couldn't wait to ask.
A smile appeared on Geng Chaozhong's face.
"Because, he was kidnapped by Liu Zhennian and Han Fuqu."
Oh!
Xiao Yi and Fang Zhitong both had comprehension expressions on their faces.
These days, no matter how rich you are, you are afraid of warlords!
For example, Huang Jinrong, as the leader of the Green Gang and the chief inspector of the patrol house of the French Concession, was not kidnapped by Lu Xiaojia, the warlord leader in Shanghai, and extorted three million oceans?
It's famous, and I don't know how many more are not!
Otherwise, how could there be so many enlightened gentlemen donating during the revolutionary period of our party?
"Boss, do you want to attack Liu Zishan?" Xiao Yi suddenly asked sensitively.
"Nonsense! Am I that kind of person?! ”
Geng Chaozhong glanced at Fang Zhi and replied angrily.
"But," Geng Chaozhong shook his head again and said:
"I don't want to attack Liu Zishan, it's not because I don't want to, but because I don't have a chance, I'm just poaching someone from him."
Geng Chaozhong wants to dig up Zhou Hongji, a talent he has been paying attention to for a while.
Originally, Geng Chaozhong still wanted to recruit normally, but found that there is no 58 Zhilian recruitment in the same city now, and poaching people all depends on fellow villagers and lip service, so I can't say it, I can only do it myself!
Although Zhou Hong's income level is now very high, reaching 200 oceans per month, Geng Chaozhong still believes that this salary must not measure the value of this guy!
There are two types of high-end occupations in the Republic of China that people will never think of in later generations, one of which is automobile mechanics.
Today's car mechanics are by no means the car repairers who lie under the car all day long in the eyes of later generations, covered with oil, they eat Western food, drink foreign wine, do four or three breaks, are not willing to go to work in a bad mood, and the people who are waiting for the car have to be persuaded and serve with large sums of tips.
Later, there was a proverb in the military commanders that said that there are two kinds of people in the world that cannot be offended:
One is the boss, and the other is the mechanic.
This shows the importance of a mechanic - its value is equal to that of future generations of aircraft pilots, and it is a high-end position that ordinary people cannot hope for.
What's more, this Zhou Hongjian not only knows foreign languages, cars, watches, pickle girls, but also sales, which can be said to be a rare compound talent.
Geng Chaozhong got him over, it was of great use!
Of course, there are still some small means!
After pondering for a while, Geng Chaozhong opened his mouth and said to the other party:
"By the way, Comrade Xiaofang, you can help me write a report! The title is, the mysterious rich man buys six cars in one go! ”
