Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 219 - 139: New Intel: Self-Ignited BMW at the Garage and Losses Worth Millions! (Triple Combo)
After Jiang Tao unlocked the vehicle, he directly opened the passenger door and squatted down to look at the vehicle’s identification plate on the B-pillar.
He compared it with the vehicle identification plate previously saved in his phone.
Confirmed, it’s really the same car!
From purchasing this Mercedes GLS at Wanxianghui for a raffle, to Jiang Tao winning its usage rights,
then to Du Enan directly giving him the car, and later refunding and compensating him threefold,
and now with Jiang Tao and Xu Li coming to the second-hand dealership to buy it.
This Mercedes GLS has come full circle and returned to Jiang Tao’s hands!
He really seems to be destined with this Mercedes GLS!
Moreover, this car was once Jiang Tao’s dream car.
When he didn’t have money, he dreamed of making a fortune and buying one.
Now that he has money, even though he can afford more expensive cars, Jiang Tao still has a special fondness for this Mercedes GLS.
You can’t put a price on what I love!
"How’s it going, honey? Is it our car?"
Xu Li leaned closer to Jiang Tao’s ear and asked in a low voice.
"Yes!"
Jiang Tao smiled and made an OK gesture towards Xu Li.
This car, Jiang Tao had already been driving for about a month and even drove it earlier that morning.
He knew its condition better than Li Ming did, and naturally knew it had no issues whatsoever.
After about five minutes, Li Ming finished his call and returned to greet Jiang Tao and Xu Li, saying with a smile:
"Brother Jiang, how’s the car looking? Want me to take you for a spin and explain it to you properly?"
Jiang Tao laughed heartily and said, "No need, Li Ming. This is it. If you say there’s no problem, then there’s no problem. I trust you."
Li Ming joked, "Brother Jiang, maybe we should do a test drive. This weighty trust makes me a bit flattered."
Jiang Tao laughed, "Enough with the jokes, kid. You’re not in a hurry to get off work, but I need to get home. Let’s get the paperwork done quickly."
"Alright then! Brother Jiang, madam, please follow me!"
"I’ll take you both to sign the contract and handle the paperwork, and then you can drive the car away later."
Li Ming smiled and motioned Jiang Tao and Xu Li to follow him back to the dealership’s office.
Then came the contract signing and procedural steps.
From when Jiang Tao and Xu Li walked into the dealership to the time he paid Li Ming the 700,000 yuan for the car, it took no more than half an hour.
"Brother Jiang, it’s rare for you and madam to come all this way to support my business."
"I’ll treat tonight, let’s have a get-together with Zhang Bo."
"If you or your friends and relatives ever have any car buying or selling needs."
"Please introduce them to me whenever possible."
After signing the contract, Li Ming warmly invited Jiang Tao and Xu Li to dinner that evening.
"Haha, sure! I read online that you guys make quite a profit selling used cars, so tonight I’ll definitely take advantage of you!"
Jiang Tao laughed heartily, readily agreeing to Li Ming’s dinner invitation.
He’s planning to develop long-term in Beijing, so knowing a few more friends won’t hurt.
Friends aren’t made just by adding each other on social media.
Occasionally meeting up for a meal to keep connections strong is very necessary.
Li Ming laughed, "I heard Zhang Bo recently started dating, I’ll tell him to bring his girl too."
Jiang Tao asked with a smile, "What about you? Got a girlfriend yet?"
Li Ming smiled, "I broke up last year, not in the mood for another. It’s happier being single."
Upon hearing that Li Ming didn’t have a girlfriend, Xu Li’s eyes lit up, and she thought of her sister-in-law Jiang Bing back home.
Although Li Ming wasn’t as handsome as Jiang Tao, he had decent features and above average looks.
He was about 1.75 meters tall, average height.
Plus, he’s a local of Beijing and his family runs such a large dealership.
With these conditions, he’d definitely be a catch back in Ping County.
Of course, Xu Li was just thinking aloud.
Without fully understanding Li Ming, she wouldn’t randomly play matchmaker.
Being wealthy is certainly a plus, but to marry into her family, one’s character also has to be solid.
After agreeing on dinner, Li Ming immediately called Zhang Bo.
Upon hearing Li Ming was treating and that Jiang Tao and Xu Li were invited, Zhang Bo readily agreed to join.
...
p.m.
With Li Ming leading the way, Jiang Tao and Xu Li arrived outside a courtyard near the front gate.
A small wooden sign with "Tan Family Cuisine" hung simply on the courtyard entrance wall, in the simplest form possible.
From the outside, you couldn’t tell it was a restaurant.
Inside the courtyard, flowers bloomed, and trees provided ample shade, creating a very elegant environment.
The melodious sound of the piano further distinguished this restaurant from ordinary ones.
"Brother Jiang, madam, the chef of this private kitchen is Master Bai Mingxu, a disciple of Liu Zhong, an authentic fourth-generation inheritor of Tan Family Cuisine."
"Master Bai has mastered over ninety percent of his mentor’s skills."
"Most clients here are members, they don’t accept walk-ins, the taste is absolutely top-notch."
"After trying it once, you’ll definitely become regulars."
As Li Ming led the two towards the courtyard, he smiled and introduced the unique aspects of this private kitchen.
Upon entering, Li Ming informed the receptionist of his reservation phone number.
After verifying the information, the server led the three to a guest room in the east wing.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Zhang Bo finally arrived.
"Hey? Where’s your partner, Zhang Bo, why’d you come alone?"
"Look at you being all secretive about your relationship, afraid we’ll steal her from you, huh?"
