Chapter 236: Two hundred thirty-six, he just entered the VIP room like that?_1

Mr. Gu chuckled, "This car looks pretty good."

Old Hu nodded in agreement, taking a deep drag from the cigarette in his hand.

"Otherwise, I wouldn’t have taken it. This car is the top-of-the-line model, brand new it’s worth 180,000 on the market, but I got it for just 60,000. Isn’t that a steal?"

He couldn’t be more satisfied with the Santana 2000 he had received.

A four-month-old car that had changed hands just once, for 60,000 yuan—just a third of the price—he couldn’t help feeling secretly delighted.

At this point, Old Hu turned to Mr. Gu with a smile, "Hey? How about you buy it, 60,000 and you can drive it away. I won’t make a single cent from you, how about that?"

He had simply asked casually.

It seemed like Mr. Gu quite liked the car after all.

He was originally planning to buy it anyway, which is why he said it offhand.

Mr. Gu blinked, to be honest, he really did like the car.

After all, he was just a vegetable seller, and he really didn’t need to drive any fancy cars.

To him, a car was just a means of transport.

Yet, this car would be a problem for delivering goods.

He thought for a moment, "No, it’s not practical. For hauling goods, I need a van."

"Oh come on, you’re making money now. Can’t you get a dedicated freight vehicle to haul for you? These little vans can’t carry much. For hauling, you need a big truck!" Old Hu said.

That made sense.

Thinking about it, the heaviest things he currently delivered were just over a thousand pounds.

But if he really wanted to go into the fruit business, it would have to be at least ten thousand pounds, and this car couldn’t handle that.

Moreover, he had already leased some land.

Making these weekly deliveries himself was indeed troublesome.

Better to just hire a large vehicle to make the deliveries once a fortnight or once a month.

This way, it would be convenient for everyone.

Buying this car for family use was actually quite suitable.

After all, having Pian Ran and Tiantian always ride in his van didn’t seem proper.

He still wanted to give them a better life.

Thinking of this, Mr. Gu nodded.

"That’s true. Well, I’ll take it then."

Brother Hu hadn’t expected Mr. Gu to agree so readily. To tell the truth, he’d just thrown out the idea because even though the car was good, it wasn’t cheap.

60,000 yuan wasn’t a small sum.

This kid must have made a fortune!

He had always felt that this youngster was promising.

It seems his judgement was indeed good. It had only been a month, and he could already afford a Santana 2000!

He looked at Mr. Gu with a mysterious expression, "You, young man, it looks like you’ve really made some money? To just decide to buy with 60,000 yuan like that."

Mr. Gu laughed, saying offhandedly, "Just a little bit of business, didn’t make much."

He was always a modest person.

He also never liked to tell others how much money he had made.

Old Hu was no fool; hearing Mr. Gu say this made him even more certain that the youngster had indeed made money—a large sum of it, otherwise why wouldn’t he tell him?

"Tell me honestly, what have you been busy with recently?"

As the questions kept coming, Mr. Gu didn’t quite know how to respond.

He had indeed made some money—quite a lot of it—but he was really afraid that the amount would scare Old Hu.

After all, it was twenty million.

It was more money than most people would see in a lifetime.

He thought and then smiled teasingly at Old Hu.

"What money have I made? It’s all my wife’s doing. I’ve become a kept man now."

To be honest, his ginseng was indeed of high quality, but Ji Guangsheng was after all Pian Ran’s father.

It would be impossible for there to be no emotional factor involved at all.

Moreover, such expensive ginseng is not easy to find a buyer who’s willing to purchase it all in one go.

So, this matter still relates to my wife after all.

But Gu Chen wasn’t opposed to it.

After all, his ginseng was genuinely good stuff, and it was clear that Ji Guangsheng really wanted those ginseng roots.

It could only be said that it was mutually beneficial for both parties.

Hearing that it was his wife’s money, Old Hu laughed heartily, "Look at you, acting coy even though you’ve snagged a bargain! Not everyone can find a wealthy wife!"

Gu Chen just smiled and didn’t explain further.

He raised his eyebrows and said to Old Hu, "Brother Hu, let’s try out the car, and we can go directly to the bank to withdraw cash!"

Old Hu nodded repeatedly, "Alright!"

After speaking, he took out the car keys and handed them to Gu Chen, then he sat down in the passenger seat.

It must be said, this Santana 2000 really was much easier to drive than that mini van.

The two of them drove towards the bank together.

When they arrived, they got out of the car and entered the bank, one after the other.

At this moment, there weren’t many people in the bank, but it wasn’t empty either, about a dozen or so.

If they were to wait in line normally, they would have to wait at least half an hour.

Gu Chen glanced around and immediately strode towards the VIP room.

He remembered that when he opened his account, the bank teller had told him that he could conduct his business directly in the VIP room from now on.

Not to take advantage of such convenience would be foolish.

Gu Chen certainly wasn’t interested in waiting.

Old Hu had no idea that Gu Chen was a VIP. He had just taken a number from the ticket machine and was looking for Gu Chen when he turned his head and saw Gu Chen walking towards the VIP room.

Immediately startled, he walked quickly and grabbed Gu Chen’s sleeve, pulling him back.

"Bro, you’re going the wrong way. That’s the VIP room, only for those with individual card transactions of over a hundred thousand."

If he went in and then got thrown out, how embarrassing that would be.

Old Hu always knew his place.

Rich people could afford to buy time, but what poor people have in abundance is time.

Gu Chen looked at Old Hu, and was just about to explain, when the teller who had opened his account that day came over.

Since there weren’t many VIP customers, sometimes she would also help with other services outside.

Seeing Gu Chen, she brightened up instantly, her face breaking into a happy smile.

She walked briskly towards Gu Chen, "Ah, Mr. Gu, what brings you here?"

Gu Chen smiled, "I’m just here to withdraw some cash."

Upon hearing this, the teller immediately extended her hand in a welcoming gesture, "Mr. Gu, please come inside."

Gu Chen nodded his thanks, "Thank you for the trouble."

After saying this, he stepped into the room.

The entire process was extremely natural.

Old Hu stood by, his eyes wide with astonishment, his face a picture of surprise as he watched the two figures walk away.

My goodness!

Just like that, he went in?

What’s going on here?

Did Gu Chen actually have over a hundred thousand in deposits here?

It seemed that his wife really was quite wealthy!

Thinking this, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of envy; Gu Chen was indeed living a comfortable life.

Not only could he earn money, but he also had married a wealthy wife.

Having spent a long time in society and having seen its harsh realities, Old Hu was all the more aware of the importance of money.

That damned thing could genuinely solve over eighty percent of the world’s troubles!
