Chapter 7 Car Purchase and Engineering

3 month 27 day.

As Qingming Festival approaches, the weather becomes a little gloomy.

Nearly six or seven days have passed since Jiang Miao took over the eel farm and Magong Resort Restaurant.

These days, he and his brother-in-law split up and dealt with various matters at the two venues.

Today, he drove his electric scooter to the resort restaurant.

As soon as Lao Ke saw him, he opened the electric barrier.

"Good morning, boss."

"Where's Yong?"

"He's moving things on the second floor."

"I'll make a call." Jiang Miao picked up WeChat and made a call.

dong dong dong...

"Hey, boss, are you here?"

"I'm at the gate, come down."

"it is good."

After a while, a burly young man with a buzz cut ran down hurriedly from the restaurant door.

This person is Lao Ke’s son Ke Yong, who is about the same age as Jiang Miao. He joined the army after high school and encountered emergencies in recent years after retiring. He has also been unemployed at home for more than a year.

Originally going out to sea to fish, Jiang Miao planned to find a driver and bodyguard, so Lao Ke recommended his son Ke Yong.

Jiang Miao asked his brother-in-law about the other party and learned that Ke Yong was a relatively honest person with no bad habits, so he hired him.

"Ayong, get in. Let's go to Pubian Town."

"it is good."

Jiang Miao parked the electric car at the resort restaurant, and the two took a Didi to Pubian Town.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at Great Wall Motor's 4S store.

When the salesgirl saw that the two men were dressed in ordinary clothes, she didn't show anything but came towards them with a smile.

"Would you like to see the car?"

"Buy me a diesel Shanhaipao, the light-enjoyment version will do." Jiang Miao went straight to the point without giving the other party a chance to introduce himself.

The salesgirl's smile became even more charming: "Our store can provide preferential car loans..."

Jiang Miao was very direct: "No, full payment, can the procedure be completed in an hour?"

"Uh..." Although the salesgirl was a little disappointed, she still sold a car, so she naturally didn't refuse: "It can be done in an hour, but it's only a temporary license plate. Do you have any requirements for the license plate number?"

"No, just don't use any numbers with bad homophones."

"Well, please wait here for a moment."

The two sat down.

Another salesgirl quickly asked, "What would you like to drink? We have tea, coffee, drinks, and matcha cake."

"Just give me a bottle of mineral water."

"Me too." Ke Yong followed.

"No problem, just wait a moment."

In less than an hour, all the procedures were completed, but the license plate would have to wait about a week before being installed at the 4S shop.

After paying 26 yuan for all miscellaneous expenses, I took delivery of the car.

After Jiang Miao took the keys, he handed one of them to Ke Yong: "Ayong, you drive from now on."

"Okay, boss." Ke Yong nodded.

After getting in the car.

"Boss, are you going back to the Ma Palace?"

"Go to Sanma Road in the city."

Ke Yong shifted gears and stepped on the accelerator, and the pickup truck sped away.

The two shopping guides waved goodbye at the door of the 4S store.

One of the salesgirls rubbed her shoulders as she watched the pickup truck drive away and said, "I don't understand the world of rich people! Buying a car is just like buying groceries."

"Want to marry into a wealthy family?"

"Yeah! It's a pity that they don't even look at me."

"Haha, stop dreaming. You'd be lucky to meet a customer like this."

The pickup truck drove along Shanmei Avenue towards the city.

After half an hour.

Jiang Miao took Ke Yong to a large clothing store on Sanma Road. "Ayong, I'll pay for today. Pick out three suits and leather shoes for yourself."

"Boss, this is not necessary?"

"Why are you being polite? You are my driver, representing me and the company. If you don't dress nicely, how can I take you out to work?"

Ke Yong finally reacted: "Thank you very much, I'm sorry for the expense, boss."

Jiang Miao also picked out five or six suits for himself.

After all, clothes make the man, and he is going to recruit some employees in a few days. If he dresses too casually, people will doubt the strength of Hailufeng Company.

I bought eight suits and eight pairs of leather shoes, spending a total of nearly 40,000 yuan.

The owner of the clothing store also gave away a lot of things.

After dressing up, Jiang Miao sat in the car and made a phone call.

"Hey, Brother Yao, we're going out for lunch at noon. Where are you? I'll pick you up."

"Eat? Sure, I'm at the store on Jinpeng Road."

"Okay, I'll go over immediately."

In less than half an hour, the pickup truck appeared in front of a hardware store on Jinpeng Road.

Pressing the car window, Jiang Miao shouted, "Brother Yao, I'm here."

The middle-aged square-faced man who was carrying an iron pipe turned his head and looked at the pickup truck before he reacted.

"You kid, take a taxi and come here! Wait for me."

This person is Jiang Miao’s cousin Jiang Yao.

"Meizhi, please look after the store. Miao and I are going to have lunch at noon."

"Go!" The short-haired woman holding the child waved her hand.

The cousin changed into a new set of clothes, ran over with a small leather bag, and threw another cigarette to Ke Yong: "Sorry, I kept the driver waiting for a long time."

Jiang Miao smiled and shook his head: "Brother Yao, this is my car, Ayong doesn't smoke."

As soon as we got in the car, my cousin was stunned for a moment: "You bought a car?"

"Just mentioned today..."

The two chatted.

Ke Yong was driving with full concentration.

After about twenty minutes, we arrived at Guanhai Villa near Jinmachi Bay.

We opened a private room.

Jiang Miao poured a cup of tea for his cousin: "Have some tea, Brother Yao."

"You are so lucky, kid."

"Brother Yao, how is business lately?"

My cousin shook his head, looking helpless: "You know, there are fewer projects. Your sister-in-law's hardware store is not doing well, and I can't get many projects here."

"I have two projects here. If Brother Yao thinks they are suitable, I will hand them over to you."

My cousin immediately became interested: "What project?"

"One is the renovation project of the eel farm. I want to build an indoor farm covering an area of ​​about 10 mu, with a steel structure, an insulation layer and constant temperature and humidity equipment, as well as a breeding pond and a water recycling system."

After hearing these requests, my cousin began to think about it.

"Another project is the renovation of the Magong Resort Restaurant. This is relatively simple. The rooms on the third floor will be converted into dormitories, the rooms on the second floor will be converted into offices, and the first floor will be used as a staff restaurant and reception hall."

"You rented the resort restaurant?"

Jiang Miao nodded: "Magong is the best place. Other places either don't have enough space or the price is not suitable."

My cousin thought for a moment and said, "There is no problem with the renovation of the resort restaurant. It does not include electrical appliances. If there is no need to change the layout, add partitions, repaint the walls, install water and electricity, and add some soft furnishings, the cost of labor and materials is about 50."

"Okay." Jiang Miao knew that this price was already very reasonable.

However, my cousin frowned and continued, "I can't take care of the entire eel farm. I can't make those professional equipment, but I can help you find a contractor who specializes in this field."

"Is that so? That's fine, I'll trouble Brother Yao to help me then."

The cousin took a sip of tea and said, "You're welcome. Just take care of me, your brother, and I will definitely help you get things done."

After a while, the dishes were served one after another.

"Eat first, and talk while you eat."

After eating for more than an hour, I drove my cousin back to the hardware store.

After being busy for most of the day, Jiang Miao asked Ke Yong to drive back to the resort restaurant.

He did not drive the pickup truck back to the village, but continued to drive his electric scooter home. In the evening, he planned to have a good talk with his parents about what to do next.
