Chapter 230: Of course the man drives an off-road vehicle
When Lu Zhou finished washing up and met Senior Brother Luo at the school gate, he rushed to the car store in Philadelphia, and it was already ten o'clock in the morning.
Because it was a Saturday and Sunday, there were many people looking at the cars in the store.
After getting out of the car in the nearby parking lot, Senior Brother Luo talked to Lu Zhou about the situation here.
“…… I bought my car here, and the owner of this car dealership is said to be a wealthy Middle Eastern tycoon. In the after-sales service, not only some legal economic and practical modifications are provided, but even some edge ball modification services can also be provided. ”
Hearing that Senior Brother Luo knew so well, Lu Zhou couldn't help asking, "Acquaintances? ”
Luo Wenxuan touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "How is it possible." ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
He thought he could get a discount or something, but now it seems that he can't.
Luo Wenxuan coughed lightly, diverted the topic and continued: "Look at what type of car you like?" I can recommend it to you. The cars here are still relatively cheap, counting the discounts, supercars are not considered, and the general high-end cars are only 60,000 or 70,000 US dollars. I recommend Porsche ...... to you."
As soon as he heard the name, Lu Zhou immediately shook his head: "I can't use all the bonuses to buy a car, I only need a means of transportation." Is there a cheaper one? ”
Luo Wenxuan said helplessly: "Japanese cars and second-hand cars are very cheap...... Three thousand dollars are available, but to be honest I don't recommend this unless you want to waste a lot of time fixing your car. ”
Lu Zhou said embarrassedly: "Of course I won't consider this kind of ......"
Although he didn't want to spend too much money on the car, he didn't want to joke about his safety in order to save some money.
Considering that I am still a novice, the first choice must be a durable car, the sturdier the better.
After turning around the store for half a circle, Lu Zhou's eyes finally fell on a rugged-looking big man.
Then, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
Following Lu Zhou's line of sight, Luo Wenxuan was slightly stunned.
"Ford Explorer SUV, turbocharged inline 4-cylinder 2.3T, mid-size off-road vehicle...... You're not going to buy this, are you? ”
Lu Zhou immediately asked, "How much?" ”
"About thirty thousand dollars. But to be honest, I don't recommend you to choose this, for a budget of $30,000 you can choose a Chevrolet Camaro, or even add another $20,000 and you can buy a Cayenne. And ......" Halfway through his words, Luo Wenxuan hesitated.
Lu Zhou wondered: "And? ”
Luo Wenxuan smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, it's nothing, it just doesn't feel like it matches your style......"
Lu Zhou: "......"
MMP!
What does it mean to be inconsistent?
How does it not match!
In the end, Lu Zhou still insisted on his opinion and chose this rugged-looking off-road vehicle.
All the costs add up to a total of $31,171.
After paying all the money, Lu Zhou took the car keys from the dealer's hand, and excitedly pulled Senior Brother Luo to the open space next to the store to get over the car.
He got his New Jersey driver's license some time ago, and in addition to still lacking some driving experience, he has now become a real driver.
The car addiction was too much, Lu Zhou drove directly to the parking lot and put Senior Brother Luo down.
Looking at Senior Brother Luo, who returned to his car, Lu Zhou helped him close the car door and said, "Thank you today!" You should go back to Princeton first, I have some business here, so I won't go back with you. ”
Senior Brother Luo: "Is it okay for you to drive back by yourself?" ”
Lu Zhou said with a smile: "I still remember the road, but there is no navigation if it is really not good." ”
Senior Brother Luo: "Okay, see you later." ”
Lu Zhou: "Well, I'll see you later." I'll treat you to dinner another day. ”
"You don't need to invite me to dinner, just ask your friend to introduce me to a few beautiful women from the University of Pennsylvania." As he spoke, Senior Brother Luo squeezed his eyebrows at Lu Zhou, then lowered the window and drove away.
Looking at the tail lights that disappeared at the entrance of the parking lot, Lu Zhou smiled and shook his head.
This guy is a bit of a good guy.
Guessed where he was going.
However, he must have misunderstood something.
……
When he first arrived in Philadelphia last time, Lu Zhou promised Senior Sister Chen that he would invite her to dinner after getting his driver's license.
Now that I have my driver's license and my car has been bought, if I release pigeons again, I am afraid that I will lose my friends.
Following the route guided by the navigation, Lu Zhou drove to the dormitory area of the Wharton School and stopped, took out his mobile phone and called Chen Yushan.
"Senior brother, you finally remembered to call your senior sister."
For some reason, Lu Zhou always felt that the voice on the other end of the phone was a little resentful.
Pretending not to hear it, Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said, "Where are you now?" I've arrived at the entrance to the Wharton graduate student housing complex...... But I'm not sure if you live here. ”
"What? Are you at Penn now? The voice on the other end of the phone was full of surprise and a hint of joy, "Look at the side of the road, is there a Blue Island Coffee nearby?" ”
Lu Zhou glanced out of the car window: "It seems to be." ”
"Yes, yes, this is it. You wait for me, I'll come down right away! ”
After speaking, Chen Yushan quickly hung up the phone.
Although it was right away, Lu Zhou still waited in the car for a while, and just when he was about to start dozing off, he finally saw the familiar figure appear at the entrance of the dormitory area.
As the time has entered March, the weather has eased a lot, and the senior sister who met this time was wearing a long skirt with slanted shoulders, which was a little more youthful and beautiful than when Lu Zhou first arrived in Philadelphia last time.
Especially the air bangs on the forehead, which made Lu Zhou feel like he was back two years ago, after seeing her seriously dressed up for the first time in the cafeteria.
Pulling the car door and sitting in the passenger seat, Senior Sister Chen looked around curiously.
"You bought a car?"
Lu Zhou: "Well, I just bought it, where are you going to eat?" ”
Chen Yushan stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "I know a good restaurant, give me your mobile phone, and I will help you locate it." ”
……
The destination is an Italian restaurant not far from here, even within walking distance.
Lu Zhou parked the car in the parking lot near the restaurant, and then followed Chen Yushan inside.
The two were seated under the reception of the waiter and ordered food separately.
After the food was served, they ate and chatted at the same time.
After all, they were comrades-in-arms who used to sit together in the library to brush up on questions, and on the other side of the Pacific Ocean far from home, there was no need to deliberately look for topics, and the conversation box naturally opened.
"You've been busy lately."
Lu Zhou nodded: "Well, it's really busy." Recently, the Goldbach conjecture has been studied, but there has been little progress. ”
Chen Yushan looked at Lu Zhou with admiration on her face, and said with emotion: "It's amazing......"
Although she did not study mathematics, Goldbach guessed that she would not be unaware of this kind of thing that the whole country knew.
A little embarrassed by this adoring gaze, Lu Zhou smiled shyly and diverted the topic.
"Okay...... What about you? ”
"I'm also quite busy," Chen Yushan, who was biting the straw, sighed and said sullenly, "The mentor has a Wal-Mart project in his hand, about the management plan and training program for senior employees of the Indian branch, and now I have to read at least 20 pages of materials every day, and I have to write a report every week to hand in, and I am tired like a dog all day." ”
As she spoke, Chen Yushan stuck out her tongue.
That cute look is a bit like a puppy...... Although it seems a little bad to describe a girl like this.
Putting away the idea of faux pas, Lu Zhou sighed with emotion: "In the case of Wal-Mart, your mentor is also a good man." ”
Of course, his real idea is that he must have a lot of money to work for the largest retailer in the United States.
"It's okay, but it's not as good as you, Mr. Great Mathematician," Chen Yushan looked at Lu Zhou with a smile and changed the subject, "Speaking of junior, why do you want to buy an off-road vehicle?" ”
"Maybe it's because of the right eye? I kind of like it anyway. Atmospheric, rugged, ...... resistant Durable," Lu Zhou coughed lightly and drew with his finger pen, "In short, a man who suits my style." ”
It's so dangerous, I almost said that I can't bear it, but fortunately he reacted in time.
However, for some reason, when he finished his last sentence, someone immediately burst out laughing.
"Poof......
Lu Zhou looked confused: "What's wrong?" ”
His forehead slammed on the table, Chen Yushan's arm hugged her lower abdomen very unvividly, and said with a smile: "No, it's okay junior brother...... It's good if you're happy. ”
Lu Zhou: ???
Laughing enough, Chen Yushan looked at him with a wicked smile and teased: "By the way, in fact, I think you are still suitable for the style of BMW mini...... It's very popular. ”
emmmm……
Are you complimenting me on my good looks?
How embarrassing is that.
Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly, unable to refute for a while.
