Chapter 104 Car Rental Services

Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Car Rental Services

Ding dong ding dong.

Seeing the butler standing outside the suite respectfully after pressing the doorbell, Bao Tao inexplicably felt a twinge of nervousness.

Yesterday, Zhou Shun called, saying he was introducing a friend to rent a car from him. Bao Tao thought the person wanted a discount.

But Zhou Shun said his friend didn’t want a discount; he just wanted good service. This was why he made a special call to emphasize it.

Regarding Zhou Shun’s words, Bao Tao had no intention of believing them completely.

Are you kidding, someone makes a special call to introduce a friend, saying no discount is needed, just good service, and you really won’t give a discount?

Isn’t that stupid?

Someone is being polite, and you take it seriously.

If that’s the case, don’t expect anyone to introduce business to you in the future.

Besides, he has known Zhou Shun for many years and knows Zhou Shun has many connections in Celestial Sea City. He must save face for the other party, so he had already decided to offer the biggest discount before coming.

But when Bao Tao arrived at the agreed place and hadn’t yet seen Li Jing, he was a bit confused.

He suddenly realized that what Zhou Shun said to him...

seemed not to be polite, but true.

The others just spent over four hundred thousand staying at a hotel; what does his discount matter?

Of course, although thinking this, he couldn’t really give no discount, after all, having money is their business, and giving discounts is a matter of his attitude.

Wealthy people may not care about the price, but don’t treat others as fools, especially concerning attitude and service.

What others spend money on is service.

At this moment, in Bao Tao’s mind, Li Jing shifted from someone who wanted to use a friend to get a discount to someone of high standards and high class.

"President Bao, please come in."

At this time, the twin palisander wooden doors slowly opened, President Bao’s expression slightly shifted, nodded gently towards the butler, took a breath, and stepped into the room.

Just as he was about to speak, he was stunned by the room’s scene, the opening line he had prepared stuck in his throat.

He saw three women and a man sitting on the sofa, ignoring the young woman dressed like a college student on the outermost side, and focusing on the two delicately made-up women on the sofa who were the main reason his opening line got stuck.

Such beautiful women...

But this thought just flashed by, and he immediately focused on Li Jing, who was surrounded by the two beauties.

Li Jing was wearing a finely tailored deep blue casual suit, the fabric’s quality superior, lines smooth, perfectly fitting his figure. He wore handmade leather shoes, leather soft and glossy, with a simple design yet revealing extraordinary quality.

Even without seeing the logo on the clothes, Zhou Tao could immediately tell the unusualness of his outfit.

Though there were four people in the room, it only took a moment for Zhou Tao to focus mainly on Li Jing.

Not only because Li Jing was seated in the center among the four, the configuration of three women and one man in the room hinted that this lone man was definitely not ordinary.

And the other three, especially the two women who amazed him at first glance, his many years of experience in Celestial Sea City told him these were people he couldn’t linger on.

"You are President Bao, right? Brother Zhou told me your car rental service is good, so he recommended you to me."

To Zhou Tao’s surprise, Li Jing’s attitude was relatively mild, which made him slightly relieved, then at the other party’s gesture, he sat on the side sofa.

He then finally spoke: "President Li, rest assured, in car rental, our service and vehicle quality are absolutely guaranteed."

Li Jing nodded slightly, took the teacup offered by An Tong, and sipped: "My requirements are simple, I wonder if Brother Zhou told you about them."

"He did, he did."

Bao Tao immediately responded: "I’ve been old friends with Brother Shun for many years, he said you were easy on the price, mainly requiring good service and quality vehicles, we guarantee we’ll provide excellent service."

Because Li Jing’s family members were coming, and quite a few people, he decided to rent several cars in Celestial Sea City for full transportation and professional drivers, which would also make it a lot easier for him.

Li Jing took the fruit handed by Zhang Xinxin, nodded: "Okay, since Brother Zhou says your service is reliable, I won’t go to your place to see the cars, let’s just negotiate directly."

"Good, many of our old clients do just that, they trust us completely, some even place their orders online directly."

With this, Bao Tao smilingly took out the vehicle information from his document bag and displayed it in front of Li Jing, respectfully said: "President Li, please see, our model charges by the day, no more than ten hours and one hundred kilometers per day, anything beyond requires additional fees.

Each configuration is top-notch, and all are cars under three years old. The drivers are all uniformly trained, with service awareness and professionalism absolutely guaranteed."

Bao Tao skillfully and professionally presented his company’s information to Li Jing. Considering the other’s capabilities, he directly skipped over the common models: "President Li, the models popular with our guests and are quite in demand mainly include the Buick GL8 business car, which comes with a driver, priced at twelve hundred a day. What do you think?"

Seeing Li Jing didn’t respond, he flipped a few pages and presented a black Mercedes business car, then chuckled, "President Li, this is a Mercedes Vito with seven seats, with a driver at sixteen hundred a day. How do you find it?"

Seeing Li Jing still remained silent, Bao Tao’s expression slightly shifted but kept his smile, "Then how about the Mercedes V260L, which is eighteen hundred a day?"

Li Jing looked indifferently at the pamphlet materials, still not voicing any opinion.

Bao Tao started to feel uncertain about the other’s thoughts but could only continue introducing higher-priced models, "President Li, the Toyota Alphard, a high-end business car favored by many celebrities, is twenty-five hundred a day..."

Seeing Li Jing still dissatisfied, Bao Tao straightforwardly said, "If you have more people, you can also rent a 12-seater luxury Toyota Coaster for three thousand a day."

Just as the other party was about to flip through half the catalog, Li Jing finally spoke, "No need for such a big car. Do you have something more luxurious? I want my family to ride more comfortably."

"More luxurious?"

Bao Tao hadn’t expected the dissatisfaction was in that area. He thought for a few seconds, then made a phone call to the store before respectfully saying, "President Li, as you need three cars of the same model and configuration, available by tomorrow, we might have just what you need. We happen to have three Bentaygas in the same style and color."

Saying this, he stole a glance at the other’s face before continuing, "However, the price might be slightly higher — one car is six thousand a day, plus five hundred a day for the driver. All three total nineteen thousand five hundred a day."

Upon hearing Bentley, Li Jing’s eyebrows slightly raised. Even in his earlier days, he had heard of this luxury car brand.

Previously, he had only seen it online; he hadn’t expected to encounter it when renting a car this time. He couldn’t help but say, "Do you have pictures? Let me see."

Seeing the other finally showing some interest, Bao Tao was delighted in his heart and immediately opened the catalog, "Yes, we do. Here you see, the Bentley Bentayga is the only SUV model under the Bentley brand, and in terms of space or off-road capability, it’s more advantageous than sedans. President Li, if you have more people riding, this model not only has enough face but also offers more room, absolutely suitable."

Looking at the pictures and interiors in the catalog, which were quite pleasing, Li Jing finally nodded, "Alright, perfect to experience a Bentley. I’ll rent them for seven days with drivers. How much in total?"

Seven days?

Upon hearing this number, Bao Tao couldn’t help but raise his eyebrow, his smile extremely bright, and immediately picked up his phone to quickly calculate, "President Li, it’s a total of one hundred thirty-six thousand five hundred; we can give you the lowest discounted price of one hundred thirty-three thousand eight hundred eight. Is that agreeable to you?"

"That works."

Unexpectedly, the moment he spoke the words, the other party nodded in agreement, catching Bao Tao by surprise, leaving him momentarily unresponsive. Until he saw the other’s calm gaze, he slightly changed his expression and immediately resumed a warm and respectful attitude, promising on the spot, "President Li, since you trust us so much, we will definitely do our utmost to serve you and your family!"

With that, he promptly brought out the contract and related documents from a file bag, starting to complete the process and paperwork directly in this room.

This was what Zhou Shun specifically instructed, saying that Li Jing didn’t like trouble, and it would be best if all processes could be completed in one go after negotiations, without needing to contact repeatedly and waste effort.

Seeing Li Jing already starting to sign a contract worth over one hundred thirty thousand for car rental with the other party, An Tong and Zhang Xinxin were only secretly surprised in their hearts, while Li Xiaoxiao beside them had already widened her eyes.

If she weren’t considering that Li Jing was discussing proper business with the other party, and it wasn’t convenient for her to interrupt, she would have exclaimed loudly by now.

The money for renting a car for seven days was even more expensive than buying a car for some people.

This level of spending had already overturned the concept of consumption developed over her twenty-one years.

She couldn’t help but tug on Zhang Xinxin beside her and whispered in amazement, "Sister Xin Xin, is my brother always this extravagant in Celestial Sea City?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xinxin raised her eyebrows slightly, leaned closer, and chuckled, "There are times your brother is far more extravagant than this, so you better get used to it."

Even more extravagant??

Spending over ten thousand just on car rental, what about housing...

Wait.

Thinking of this, she was suddenly shocked, slowly turning her head, and asked Zhang Xinxin, "Sister Xin Xin, I remember my brother said he’s been living here for a week. The price of this suite... isn’t cheap, right?"

Seeing her expression, Zhang Xinxin couldn’t help but chuckle lightly: "Of course, this kind of suite isn’t cheap; it’s sixty-six thousand a night."

"Sixty-six thousand?!!"

Li Xiaoxiao could no longer control her voice, but fearing it might affect Li Jing and Bao Tao, she immediately covered her mouth.

However, in her mind, she had already quickly calculated the weekly room cost.

Seeing the figure of four hundred sixty-two thousand calculated in her mind, Li Xiaoxiao just felt an unreal sensation, her mind blank.

For her coming from an ordinary family, spending over ten thousand was already a big expense that would require a family gathering to decide.

But for Li Jing, renting a house and a car involved casually spending, nearly equating to several years of expenses for their family.

She slowly turned her head, staring blankly at Li Jing, who was calmly signing under Bao Tao’s respectful service, finally realizing...

She and the other party seemed to no longer belong to the same world.
