Chapter 327: Duncan's Car Dealership
With a six-game winning streak, the Spurs returned to San Antonio, and usually after the road, the Spurs have a half-day break the next day, and Thunderwater received an invitation from Duncan on this day.
Duncan called Lei Shui early in the morning to invite him to his car dealership, Lei Shui went out and took a taxi, as a taxi driver, of course, he knew San Antonio, a rising star: "Oh! You're Ray! I didn't expect to pick you up today, I'm so lucky, my name is Burns, the best taxi driver in San Antonio, it's a pleasure to serve you, where are we going? ”
Lei Shui tried to squeeze into the back row, and then showed the address given by Duncan to the driver: "Go here, please hurry up, because your back is too narrow..."
Burns adjusted his rearview mirror, saw Lei Shui curled up in the back seat and said, "Oh! It's a bit crowded at the back, and as a good taxi driver, I'm very happy to accept your advice, and tomorrow I'll open a skylight in that position so you can stick your head out..."
Lei Shui's face was black: "Open the skylight?" I think it's better for you to be cautious, and you're not a person as tall as me every day. ”
Burns nodded and continued, "I take the liberty of asking, what are you going to Tim for?" Is it about the team, or is it personal? ”
Lei Shui was very strange that he didn't say that he was going to find Duncan, and the address was not Duncan's home, how did he know: "How did you know that I was going to find Tim?" ”
Burns said proudly: "The best taxi driver in San Antonio knows everything, this place you go to is Tim's car dealership, and you are a Spurs player, you go there, you must go to Tim..."
"This is the car dealership..."Lei Shui knew that Duncan had a car dealership, but he didn't know the specific address, but he didn't expect Duncan to make an appointment with his car dealership this time.
Burns continued: "I guess you must have been a personal matter this time. ”
Duncan's invitation was just to talk about chatting and drinking coffee, and did not say anything specific, for Burns's speculation, Lei Shui asked, "Why?" ”
Burns said: "Tim is a very enthusiastic guy, even though he is retired, he still cares about the team, but the team is doing really well, there are no problems, no need for help, so it's definitely a personal matter..."
Lei Shui smiled: "Hehe, we're just out for coffee." ”
Burns was a chatterbox, talking non-stop along the way, but Lei Shui still liked this person, and when he arrived at the place, Burns pointed to a place and said, "Look! That's it, 'Black Jack' that's Tim's car dealership! ”
Lei Shui said, "Oh! This is Tim's car dealership!? I didn't even know he was so close to our training gym! ”
Burns said, "Yes! Tim is a low-key man! ”
Lei Shui nodded: "Okay, how much?" ”
Burns snapped his fingers and said, "How about a signature and a group photo in lieu of the fare!?" ”
Lei Shui smiled: "OK! No problem! Where's the sign? ”
Burns handed a pen and pointed to the top of his head and said, "Just sign it on the roof of the car!" In the future, that position will be a VIP seat! ”
Lei Shui and Burns took a photo in front of the car and walked towards the car.
The overall appearance of the car shop is silver-white, it looks nothing special, very simple, but every car parked at the door is cool and abnormal, and several of them are big and scary.
Lei Shui pushed the door in, and saw Duncan sitting there chatting with a few friends, Duncan saw Lei Shui coming, got up and said, "Hey! Thunder! Come here! ”
"Let me introduce you, this is Sean Elliott, a Spurs legend, and now our home commentator." Duncan introduced.
Lei Shui shook hands and said, "We have met at home, and I like your explanation very much. ”
Elliot laughed, "Hahahaha, I admire you very much, and now I'm your fan!" ”
"This is Joe Waozel, our famous car dealer." Duncan continued.
When they met for the first time, Lei Shui politely shook hands: "Hello! ”
Joe was excited: "Wow! What a young and promising! ”
Duncan went on to introduce the person closest to him: "This is my partner, Jason Pena. ”
After greeting him, Duncan said, "Ray is here for the first time, let's accompany him for a tour first!" ”
Under Duncan's guidance, Lei Shui visited Duncan's car dealership and walked into the hall, which was different from the simple appearance of the car dealership, which was full of various car parts, as well as decorations, and there were spur-style commemorative T-shirts and souvenirs hanging on the side wall, which looked bright and dazzling.
Lei Shui is not familiar with cars, so he looked around and was very curious about these parts that he had never seen, after visiting for a while, Lei Shui looked at the LOGO in the hall, Lei Shui really couldn't think of what the name of this 'Black Jack' meant, so he asked: "'Black Jack', is it because you have a guy named Jack?" ”
The question drew laughter from the other four, and Jason explained: "'Black Jack' is not a name, it's a Texas card game, also known as 'blackjack'. ”
Lei Shui nodded and smiled: "Oh, it turns out that the game is used to represent Tim's number, which is really ingenious." ”
After visiting the hall, I came to the workshop at the back, and as soon as I opened the door, there was the roar of the engine inside, and two workers were debugging a black and silver sports car.
Duncan walked up and asked, "How's the debugging?" ”
The worker made an OK gesture and said, "Perfect!" ”
Duncan dropped the hood and asked Thunderwater, "How's this car?" ”
Lei Shui saw that this car was a pure spur style, with a big spur logo printed on the door, and the color of the whole body was also black and silver of spurs, and the car logo was a cobra, which looked very sharp: "Very beautiful!" Lei Shui praised.
Duncan smiled and got into the car, dropped the window and said, "Let's go, go to the backyard and give it a try!" ”
After speaking, Duncan stepped on the accelerator, and the car fell out with a roar, and the backyard was an open field, Duncan drove the car and drifted around the back a few times, and his wild driving style was not at all like the usual restrained Duncan.
Squeak——! With a sharp brake, Duncan stopped the car in front of Lei Shui with a flick, got out of the car and said, "Thunder! Give it a try! ”
Lei Shui had just gotten his driver's license after Thanksgiving, and he was still in the elementary stage, so he waved his hand busily: "I've only gotten my driver's license for a few days, and I can't play with you." ”
Duncan said, "It's okay! Let's try it out! ”
Elliott also said, "Try it, it must look great!" ”
"Try it!" Joe and Pena also said on the sidelines.
Unable to withstand the persuasion of several people, Lei Shui walked into the cab, and Duncan sat in the co-pilot, introduced the configuration in the car to Lei Shui, and then said: "Come on, run a lap and try!" ”
Lei Shui held the steering wheel tightly, tapped the accelerator, and the car let out a roar, Lei Shui started slowly, and began to slowly circle around the backyard, Duncan knew that Lei Shui had just taken out his driver's license, and it was unrealistic to play drift or something, and the backyard was too small to release, so he pointed to the back door: "Go!" Get out there! ”
Lei Shui drove out of the car shop under Duncan's command, and went around to a small road behind the car dealership, Duncan said: "There are no people on this road, you try the performance of this car!" Press the gas pedal hard! ”
Lei Shui looked around carefully, to make sure that there was no problem, made a lot of determination, stepped on the accelerator, with the sound of the wheels rubbing the ground, the car jumped out suddenly, a strong sense of pushing the back made Lei Shui's back stick to the backrest, Duncan didn't expect Lei Shui to step on it so hard, and also stuck to the backrest, startled, but then excitedly shouted: "Wow! That's great! The speed up is fantastic! ”
Lei Shui also gradually adapted to the control of the car, and drove very excitedly, and after two turns, Lei Shui drove the car back to the car dealership.
After getting out of the car, Duncan high-fived Lei Shui: "Awesome buddy!" ”
Lei Shui was also very excited: "This car is amazing, I will buy one when I go back!" ”
Duncan smiled, raised his hand and turned the car key in his hand twice, and handed it to Lei Shui: "It's yours!" ”
