Chapter 302: Chapter 299: Buying a Car (Three Updates) Chapter 302: Chapter 299: Buying a Car (Three Updates) “How many people did you give your number to?”

After hanging up with Yang Dan, Jiang Yan turned his head to ask Mu Jiawen, and raised his hand to pinch her face, which was fine and elastic, feeling quite nice.

Yang Dan was right, with skin like that, she shouldn’t be let out carelessly—who wouldn’t cling to her, desperate for a way to contact her?

Mu Jiawen slapped his hand away and muttered, “I only gave it to one person, the boy who sold me the sheep, but that guy holding a big white goose stood there listening without buying anything, and the duck farmer, I have no idea how he heard.”

“Did you specifically go to look at livestock today?”

“Not really, just browsing around.”

It wasn’t long before the two arrived at the 4S car dealership.

Mu Jiawen didn’t know much about cars; she had only one requirement, to buy an SUV—spacious, with plenty of legroom.

Since Jiang Yan was tall with especially long legs, he could drive a regular sedan, but clearly, he couldn’t stretch out comfortably in one.

She thought, they had enough money on hand, so if they were going to buy, why not choose the comfortable option?

Jiang Yan shared her sentiment—since they were buying, might as well get it right the first time.

Plus, they could drive it on a trip during the summer vacation.

But to be honest, he wasn’t sure how much money he currently had in his account. Last month, Du Fan and others had completed the development of a new game he’d invested in, and it had been released. So far, it was showing a trend of becoming a big hit.

So, barring any mishaps, his account should receive at least ten to twenty thousand by the end of this month.

After all, the company was just starting out, and most of the profits needed to be retained as start-up capital.

The pair walked into the 4S dealership, and since it was the weekend, the place was crowded. Maybe because Jiang Yan and Mu Jiawen looked quite young, several salespeople who were introducing cars to customers glanced at them and quickly turned their attention back.

They didn’t seem to care much.

It was common to see young couples like them wandering in on the weekends, just looking around to satisfy their curiosity, with most not having the means to buy.

Seeing it so often, the salespeople had lost interest.

Look all you want, as long as you don’t touch or get in the car, a few glances won’t chip the paint.

The two bypassed the sedans at the front and headed straight to the SUV section at the back.

“What color do you like?” Jiang Yan asked Mu Jiawen.

“White, I guess. What do you think?”

At that time, there weren’t many SUV models from Volkswagen, the designs were simple and the colors were limited; after all, this dealership only had black and white.

After comparing the prices, they decided on one in the middle range.

Jiang Yan wasn’t very familiar with this year’s car models. In his previous life, though he liked cars just like any other man, because he couldn’t afford one, he gradually stopped paying attention.

As for the model they had chosen, Jiang Yan circled the vehicle but couldn’t find any information or model number. He wondered, what was this about? Was the car just a model?

But as he was about to pull open the car door to take a look inside, he suddenly heard a very rude shout, “Hey, can’t you see you’re not allowed to randomly get in?”

Mu Jiawen turned her head to look, and saw a young, skinny salesperson in his twenties with a long, thin face, looking aloof and full of impatience, “Just look from the outside, that car is very expensive.”

The implication was clear: you can’t afford it, and if you damage it, you can’t afford to pay for that either.

Because his voice was loud and piercing, it drew the attention of the nearby salespeople and customers, all of whom looked at them with mockery and amusement on their faces.

Mu Jiawen’s gaze turned cold as she said to Jiang Yan, “Isn’t there another dealership across the street? Let’s go have a look there.”

Across the street was Great Wall.

Thinking of the price, Jiang Yan’s eyes lit up—how had he not thought of that?

It was half the price of what they had planned, and the space was ample. Plus, it could later be used by their second child to transport goods, especially since their old van, acquired for five thousand yuan, would be scrapped in half a year at most.

Ignoring the looks from others, the two held hands and leisurely left the Volkswagen 4S dealership, crossed the street, and entered the Great Wall showroom.

About five minutes later, Jiang Yan drove out of the dealership in the newly released CUV, took a lap around the spacious area in front of the store, and came to a smooth stop.

The store manager, eager to please, stayed by the car side, enthusiastically describing the various features inside the vehicle. Meanwhile, Mu Jiawen had already briskly finished paying at the cashier’s desk.

The total cost, with everything included, was only one hundred and ten thousand yuan, and for the top-trim model no less.

Mu Jiawen was quite satisfied with the price, and also with the color.

She usually wasn’t keen on flashy colors, but she had to admit, the vastness of the CUV paired with the yellow shade didn’t clash in the slightest.

Jiang Yan was satisfied too; both the driver’s seat and the space behind were substantial, the performance decent, and the drive was quite smooth.

He pushed open the car door, took the contract from the store manager’s hand, briefly flipped through it, and then signed his name.

The rest of the paperwork was handled very quickly. They made an appointment for the license plates and then got in the car and drove away.

From entering to leaving the showroom, it hadn’t even been half an hour.

Meanwhile, the Volkswagen 4S dealership across the street was still bustling. However, because the yellow CUV Jiang Yan had just driven was so striking, it garnered the attention of some of the salespeople and customers, who recognized the young couple as the same ones who had been driven away by the slim-faced salesperson earlier.

It turned out that they were serious about buying, not just browsing.

Their decisiveness in making the purchase spoke volumes; they had spent less than half an hour before and after, which meant they must have planned ahead. Plus, they had headed straight for the 4S showroom, indicating an initial interest in Volkswagen, only to be ridiculed away within minutes of their arrival by the salesman.

These days, with money in hand, who would swallow an insult only to then buy your product?

The Volkswagen dealership manager also witnessed this scene and realized the implication. With a heavy glance towards the slim-faced salesman, he thought, “Not an ounce of tact—busy all morning, mouth running hot from pitching, and did you sell even one car?”

“The genuine buyer, you managed to chase away.”

This glance from the manager made the already upset slim-faced salesman’s countenance turn even more unsightly, a mix of green and white.

…

Elsewhere, Jiang Yan and Mu Jiawen drove their new car to Xinyu first.

Dai Lei and the youngest child were busy when they saw a yellow off-road vehicle stop in front of the store. Both were startled until they recognized Jiang Yan in the driver’s seat, to which the youngest child excitedly jumped up, “You’ve got it already? That was so quick!”

He couldn’t wait for Jiang Yan and Mu Jiawen to get out before eagerly driving the car out of the neighborhood.

Watching the youngest child’s excited antics, Dai Lei let out a world-weary sigh, “Ah, if only he had this much enthusiasm for studying.”

Jiang Yan and Mu Jiawen simultaneously turned to look at him. Jiang Yan asked, “Not confident?”

“Depends on which school he applies to. If it’s a community college or vocational school, he should be able to get in. But aiming for a second-tier university, let alone second-tier, even third-tier would be a stretch.”

Mu Jiawen’s eyes widened in shock, “You actually think he can get into university? Our original plan was just to have him attend a vocational college. University is simply out of the question for him, no matter what.”

Dai Lei: …

Wait, if you both had a plan from the start, why didn’t you tell me?
