"Um, sir, please come to my office so we can talk," the manager said to Ling Yun after Zhou Tian had left.
Ling Yun nodded and took his daughter to the office behind the manager. "Please, have a seat. Xiao Zheng, go pour some water." This Xiao Zheng was the one who had shown Ling Yun the cars earlier. Xiao Zheng answered with an "Oh" and turned to leave the office. "I heard you wanted to buy a Bentley?" the manager asked as soon as they sat down.
Ling Yun nodded to confirm it. Seeing his response, the manager began sizing him up. So young, yet able to afford this much—he must be some rich second-generation heir. But those clothes don't look the part.
"May I ask your surname, sir?" the manager asked after studying him for a while. At that moment, Xiao Zheng came in carrying three cups of water. He placed two in front of Ling Yun, then obediently left again. "My surname is Ling. Why does Manager Li ask?" Ling Yun took a sip of water and stared at the manager.
Upon hearing that his surname was Ling, the manager began searching his memory for wealthy young masters, but after thinking for a long time, he could not recall any prominent family with that surname. "It's nothing, nothing. Just getting to know each other. Oh, right, my surname is Li. I'm the manager here. This is my business card." As he spoke, Manager Li took a business card from the drawer and handed it to Ling Yun with both hands. Ling Yun glanced at it and set it on the table beside him.
"Mr. Ling, you saw what happened earlier. The Bentley in our store was bought by Mr. Zhou. If you still need one, I can transfer one from the nearest branch, but only the top trim is left at the moment. The one Mr. Zhou bought was a mid-range model, around 2.8 million. The top trim... well, it's around 4 million." Manager Li paused when he mentioned the 4 million and watched Ling Yun's expression. But what expression could Ling Yun have? It was only 4 million—nothing worth mentioning. He still had more than 8 million in his card.
Seeing no reaction from Ling Yun, Manager Li continued, "Also, Mr. Ling, if we need to transfer it, store policy requires a deposit equal to half the vehicle's value. If you don't come to pay the remaining balance when the time comes, the deposit will not be refunded. If you've made up your mind, please sign this contract."
Manager Li also believed Ling Yun did not have the means, so he took out a spare contract and handed it over. Ling Yun did not even look at it before saying, "Manager Li, how about this? I won't sign this contract. Bring me the official vehicle purchase contract instead!
I'll pay you 4 million first. Once the car arrives, if it isn't enough, I'll make up the difference. But I have one condition: I must be able to get the car tomorrow."
Ling Yun handed the contract back. Manager Li could hardly believe what he had just heard, and wild joy surged through him. What kind of day is this? First Zhou Tian bought a Bentley worth over 2 million, and now this Mr. Ling wants a Bentley worth 4 million. If these two cars are sold, wouldn't this year's sales target be completed?
Seeing that Manager Li had not reacted for quite a while, Ling Yun called out, "Manager Li? Do you not believe me or something? How about this—you run the card first, and then we'll sign the contract. Is that okay?" Ling Yun simply wanted to finish up and leave quickly. He had been in this car dealership for nearly half an hour already, and he was bored to death.
Only then did Manager Li come back to his senses. He hurriedly took out the company POS machine for Ling Yun to swipe his card, then brought out a contract for him to sign. Ling Yun barely looked it over before signing his name.
When Manager Li saw the receipt print from the POS machine, he knew the payment had gone through. He was so excited that he said, "Mr. Ling, I lost my composure earlier. I'm sorry. Here is your receipt; please keep it safe. And the contract—at the latest, the car will arrive by noon tomorrow! To express my apology, I'll extend your maintenance coverage by two years. No, three years!" Manager Li had that much authority. Ling Yun did not want to say much more. Taking his things, he prepared to leave with Little one.
Just as he opened the door, he spotted that female salesperson again. Seeing Ling Yun heading out, she said, "Poor bastard, are you buying or not? Why not go across the street and buy a Mitsubishi?" The moment she finished speaking, she saw her manager chasing after him from behind, shouting, "Mr. Ling, Mr. Ling, wait for me! Here's my business card—you forgot to take it." Hearing Manager Li's voice, Ling Yun stopped. After accepting his card, he said goodbye and left.
Manager Li watched Ling Yun and his daughter until they disappeared from his sight before returning to the dealership.
Store.
"Man... Manager? They?" the female salesperson asked nervously. "Oh, you mean Mr. Ling? He bought it."
Manager Li said it casually, but the female salesperson was anything but calm. "He... he bought it?" Zhou Tian, standing nearby, found it strange and began making plans in his heart.
