Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Panamera
The long-lost two golden dice reappeared.
The first dice stopped at four, while the second stopped at two.
[Congratulations host, you have received a sixfold random increase.]
[Ding, 960,000 has been credited to your Alipay, with a balance of 970,000.]
Wonderful, just too wonderful.
This is only the first day of the recharge event.
It seemed his decision to invest in the best location in Beixin'an, insisting on a second branch, was quite correct after all.
Although the first day's high customer turnout was boosted by the May Day holiday and would likely decrease later,
earning nearly a million in one day, he felt compelled to reward himself with some favorite items to settle down.
He loved cars just like any man; previously, the conditions weren't right, but now it was worth a look.
As a small boss spanning the fruit and entertainment industries, how could he keep driving his wife's car?
That was inappropriate.
With the current advancements in mobile internet, various apps were available on the phone.
He called Song Yanxi over to look at them together.
Since there were no outsiders in the office anyway, he pulled his wife to sit on his lap.
"Yanxi, what do you think I should choose if I buy a car?"
"You're buying a car?"
"Of course, the Audi at home is bought for you, and it's not appropriate for me to drive it every day."
"Oh, is that so."
Song Yanxi thought about it and also felt he should buy one for himself.
She swiped on the phone on Autohome, where all types of cars were available.
And they were detailed in the introduction.
She marveled once again at the power of mobile internet.
"Honey, what type of car do you want to buy?"
"For family use, your Audi is enough, but I mainly want something bigger, preferably more comfortable for long-distance travel."
"Then what's your budget?"
"Five to six hundred thousand maybe, an used car that hasn't been driven for a few years could also work."
This price range provided a wide selection of new cars.
The most comfortable car to drive for long trips was undoubtedly a sedan, and the most comfortable to sit in was definitely an SUV, with spacious room.
After looking for a while, Song Yanxi picked three target cars.
They were the Deluxe version of the BMW 530, the Mercedes E300, and the mid-large Lexus GX.
After weighing his options, Chen Pingsheng still liked the Lexus GX the most.
It had enough space.
"Honey, when do you want to go buy it?"
"Let's wait another couple of days."
Chen Pingsheng calmed his slightly anxious heart.
Fortunately, his wife was beside him; too excited, he could always take action anytime.
Despite being married for six years,
Chen Pingsheng's love for her hadn't decreased at all, on the contrary, he found her more beautiful as days passed.
He felt extraordinarily excited when handling matters.
He felt that the most successful thing he'd done in his life was marrying Song Yanxi.
The ancients said a good wife benefits three generations, not a bit exaggerated.
After two more days, when fifty thousand flowed into the second branch, Chen Pingsheng took Song Yanxi car shopping.
At this price range, he could only afford mid-range luxury cars; anything more luxurious wouldn't go under a million.
Song Yanxi was fine with whatever he chose; she had gotten used to it by now.
Her husband seemed to have some special sources of income, as he never touched the profits from the fruit shop.
According to him, those little profits were meant for her own personal expenses.
Spend as she wished, maintain as she liked, it was all up to her.
This man was just too good; she must reward him with a pink nurse outfit when they got home.
And it had to be the kind without anything underneath.
The couple first went to the largest used car market in Beixin'an.
To be honest, a luxury car used for two to three years without accidents like waterlogging could easily last another four or five years without any issues.
New cars within the five to six hundred thousand range could only select the BMW 5 series or the Mercedes E class.
A used one could now opt for a BMW Series 7 or a Range Rover Sport.
After much deliberation, Chen Pingsheng fell for a Porsche Panamera that had clocked 50,000 kilometers.
It was only registered two years ago, had zero transfers, and the used car dealership absolutely guaranteed there had been no accidents or flood repairs.
He could naturally tell at a glance whether there had been any accidents.
This was a true luxury car.
The 2.9T executive stretch version had a new car on-road price of nearly 1.5 million.
The used one was only 750,000, a whole half cheaper.
Chen Pingsheng patted the car door; it was evident his wife liked it too.
This was normal—no women could resist a white Panamera.
Seeing his wife's admiring gaze, he had to buy it.
It was the first car in his life, a white Panamera.
Though it was used, it didn't affect its presence on the road at all.
Registering it was a slight issue but easy to solve with a little connection, just like the restrictions on buying a house—they restrict only the real demand.
For those with the ability to invest in property, it was just a matter of a few more procedures.
Song Yanxi absolutely adored the new car; it was written all over her face.
Sitting in the driver's seat, her pert posterior kept shifting left and right.
This was their new car.
Just parking it in the courtyard, or the moment she stepped out from it, garnered countless envious glances.
"Honey, I never thought our family would one day be able to drive a Porsche like this," she said.
"There's a lot more you haven't thought of," he replied.
Chen Pingsheng smiled and said, "By July at the latest, I'll make sure you move into a big house we buy ourselves."
"Really? It feels like a dream."
Song Yanxi found it all so surreal; the changes in their lives were happening too fast.
Less than half a year had passed, and not only was she driving an Audi.
Her husband had a Panamera, and she herself owned five large and very stable fruit supermarkets.
Life seemed to be getting better and better.
"Husband, yesterday Du Juan was pulling me aside saying women need to maintain themselves more because she said women age fast and men's hearts change quickly," she mentioned.
Song Yanxi looked at him with a half smile, knowing well that this topic was a big trap.
Women's thought processes were indeed strange—one moment they marveled at improving life,
the next, she could suggest that men become corrupt with wealth.
"She does maintain herself often. Just go with her, and by the time I'm so old my teeth are nearly all gone, you could still sit on me and play Diao Chan," he joked.
"Oh please..." Song Yanxi rolled her eyes at him with flirty disapproval, her fascination with various heroic costumes also an effort to spice up their marital life.
Such topics were meant for nighttime, not to be discussed in broad daylight.
She could get embarrassed too.
"You know, Du Juan is quite interesting. Her salary is just six or seven thousand a month, yet she spends thirty or forty thousand a year at beauty salons. I think she's crazy."
"That much?"
Song Yanxi nodded, "She even said that's quite less for her compared to some rich ladies who spend millions a year on maintenance. Thirty or forty thousand barely covers a year's facial treatments."
"Those beauty salons really make a killing," he observed.
"No kidding, I even followed her yesterday and bought a 5,000-member card myself," she said.
Spoken without intention, but heard with interest.
Chen Pingsheng had Golden Finger, and the best business to invest in was undoubtedly future money.
Namely, recharge cards.
According to Du Juan's knowledge, those who charge three to five thousand are small clients in such high-end beauty salons.
Fifty or a hundred thousand marks the real big clients.
If he could invest in a beauty salon, it definitely wouldn't be worse than the fruit stores.
More importantly, he really wanted to open a luxurious beauty salon for his wife in the future.
Of course, he was well-versed in fruit stores.
Beauty salons, however, were another matter: a technical task.
The industry had high barriers to entry, it wasn't just about having money.
He set aside that idea for now, to see if a suitable opportunity would arise in the future.
First, make the fruit stores work well, and buy a house, then discuss further.
Only once the house issue was settled could he truly invest big without worries.
For now, making a home was the main priority.
