Chapter 27: Buying a Car.
“Brother, brother, brother…”
Fang Yiyi clung tightly to Fang Jian’s neck and didn’t want to let go. Looking at her big round eyes, Fang Jian smiled wryly and said, “Yi Yi, do you want some fast food? But Mom doesn’t allow it.”
“No, brother,” Fang Yiyi swallowed and said insincerely, “I don’t want fast food.”
“Oh, then what would my little Yiyi like to do?”
“Brother, can I skip kindergarten tomorrow?” Fang Yiyi widened her eyes and asked, “Can we visit Yuanyuan again tomorrow?”
Fang Jian was puzzled and asked, “Yiyi, we just saw her yesterday. Why do you want to go again today?”
“Because Yuanyuan is all alone in the hospital, and it’s no fun at all,” Fang Yiyi explained, “There are no other kids there, so I want to keep her company.”
Fang Jian thought momentarily and nodded, saying, “Alright, we’ll go again tomorrow.”
In the world of children, everything is filled with wonder. However, it’s uncertain if they can maintain such friendships as they grow up. Fang Jian sighed and hailed a taxi, but he didn’t go home this time. Instead, he went to the largest car dealership in town. As he looked around, various car brands were on display.
After some consideration, Fang Jian decided to visit a Volkswagen dealership. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford a better car. It was just that his current living situation didn’t warrant it. In his older neighborhood, there were plenty of cars, some even priced at four to five hundred thousand dollars, but most were second-hand.
There were few new cars in this price range. He could consider buying a million-dollar car if they were to move to a new place.
But for now…
Furthermore, Fang Jian was thinking of buying a car for his father to drive this time. Given his father’s current job, a Volkswagen would be suitable. If he were to buy a million-dollar car, his father would never drive it. Seeing a young man entering the showroom with a little girl, a salesperson approached them with a friendly smile.
“Sir, how can I assist you today?”
Fang Jian smiled and said, “I’d like to purchase a Passat. Do you have one in stock?”
“Ah? A Passat in stock?” The salesperson hesitated for a moment.
Fang Jian chuckled and said, “If you don’t have one, I’ll check out the Audi dealership next door.”
“Sir, please wait a moment,” the salesperson smiled. “We have a Passat available, but it’s the top-of-the-line model.”
Many car buyers opt for the base model, with only a few choosing the mid-range versions.
As for the top-of-the-line versions…
To be honest, there was a higher proportion of buyers for top-tier models for luxury cars. However, the Passat was mostly a mid-range car, so the salesperson didn’t expect Fang Jian to be interested in the top-of-the-line version. Even if he did express interest, he would likely negotiate the price.
However, Fang Jian tilted slightly and said, “Take me to see it.”
The salesperson led Fang Jian to a corner of the showroom, where there was a Volkswagen Passat.
“How much is it?”
“This is the 2020 380TSIDSG flagship model, and our price is 298,800 yuan.”
Fang Jian walked around the car and took out his ID card and bank card, saying, “Install a child seat for me. Hurry up, I want to drive it away.”
The salesperson’s eyes widened, and he was speechless. This 300,000 yuan car wasn’t considered a luxury car. He had worked here for many years and had seen wealthy customers buy Phaetons. But Fang Jian’s easygoing attitude and how he seemed to be buying not just a car, but a bicycle, were what truly surprised him.
Taking the money and ID card, the salesperson respectfully said, “Sir, please have a seat here and rest for a moment. I will process the paperwork for you.”
Buying a car may be a simple process, but normally people would compare prices and choose their preferred color and other options before purchasing. But Fang Jian, as long as he found a car he liked in stock, would immediately place an order, and it seemed to make the salesperson very happy.
“Brother, is this the car you bought?” Fang Yiyi asked.
“Yes, it’s for Dad to drive in the future, and he’ll pick you up and drop you off, okay?”
“Okay,” Fang Yiyi said happily, drawing out her response.
Children also have a sense of comparison and are sometimes even stronger than adults.
Inside the 4S dealership, there was a play area for children. After an hour, all the procedures were completed, and Fang Jian received the insurance policy and temporary license plate. He took the keys, started the car, and headed home.
