Chapter 573: Happy New Motorcycle

Bai Zhi took a bite of the potato and radish bun and nodded repeatedly, "Delicious! I used to pick these radishes in the wild when I was a child."

"Then eat this."

"good."

Lu Ye handed the steamed bun in his hand to Bai Zhi, and then took the half of a cabbage bun from Bai Zhi's hand.

Then he opened another bottle of water and handed it to him, saying, "Here, have some water, don't choke."

Liu Guifang and Wang Yumei sat in the back, listening to the young couple's every move.

Liu Guifang wore a warm, aunt-like smile.

Although her husband, Lao Yang, had never treated her like that, she was genuinely happy for the young couple seeing them so affectionate.

This is the kind of love that people envy and yearn for.

Wang Yumei's face was dark and full of disdain.

The talkative Liu Guifang glanced at Wang Yumei, who was pouting and looking unhappy, and whispered, "Yumei, you should learn from Xiaobai."

Wang Yumei scoffed, "Learning how to bewitch a man's heart?"

"Why are you like this? Alright, stop talking." Liu Guifang was afraid the young couple sitting in front of her would hear, so she could only keep quiet.

After about an hour of bumpy travel, the bus finally stopped at the city bus station.

As they were getting off the bus, Bai Zhi stood up and asked Liu Guifang, "Sister-in-law Guifang, where are you going?"

Wang Yumei nudged Liu Guifang, signaling her not to let anything slip.

"Let's just wander around for a bit," Liu Guifang said with a smile. "Xiao Lu, Xiao Bai, you two go ahead and do your work."

"Okay, we'll be going now."

Following the address provided by the appliance store owner, Lu Ye and Bai Zhi took another bus and traveled four stops before arriving at the motorcycle shop.

Then, Bai Zhi made a phone call to the appliance store owner from the doorway.

"Boss, we've arrived at your cousin's motorcycle shop. Could you please give your cousin a heads-up?"

"You have to give us a discount; we can't overcharge you."

"We will not take advantage of people we know well, we definitely will not take advantage of people we know well."

They'll go in after Mr. Wang, the home appliance tycoon, finishes his phone call.

The two walked around the door for a moment, and then a middle-aged man in a jacket with a shrewd look came out to greet them.

Upon seeing the young men and women loitering near the entrance, the man warmly inquired, "Hello, are you referred by my cousin from the Qingshan County Home Appliance Store?"

Lu Ye nodded, "Yes, we were introduced by Boss Wang."

"Please come in quickly."

The motorcycle shop owner welcomed them inside.

Then he asked the shop assistant to pour him some water and bring it over, saying, "You two have come from afar, you must be tired, please sit down and rest for a while."

Bai Zhi said, "Let's look at the car first."

"Okay, let's take a look first." The owner then showed them around the store and explained the models in detail. "We have many types of motorcycles here. Please feel free to look around. The price is negotiable."

"good."

Before they even arrived, the two of them already knew exactly what kind of motorcycle they wanted to buy.

The couple walked around the dealership and settled on a red Jialing motorcycle.

"You two have excellent taste," the shopkeeper complimented them, explaining the motorcycle's features.

"It's great, exactly the same as the one I bought in Nancheng last year, and I'm familiar with riding it."

Bai Zhi sat on the bike with considerable skill, started the engine, and took it for a test ride.

Then, Lu Ye tried it again.

Both of them were quite skilled at the operation.

Lu Ye responded, "It does have the same performance as ours, so it should be a genuine vehicle."

The boss quickly chimed in, "You two have good taste. Our dealership doesn't sell off-brand cars; they're all genuine."

After the test drive, the two looked at the boss and said, "Boss, let's talk about the price."

"Since you two were introduced by acquaintances and are experts, I won't overcharge you."

With a shrewd look on his face and an earnest expression, the boss said seriously, "I won't make money off you two. Let's settle at cost price, three thousand three."

"Boss, you must be joking. We've done our research and came here because of a friend. You can't be so dishonest."

“This beautiful lady, I’m not asking for much. I would sell it for 3,500 to others.”

Bai Zhi naturally believed this, as products from distributors like this do not have a uniform price.

After all, in this era of limited information access, distributors make their money from the price difference.

The profit varies from transaction to transaction.

But Bai Zhi had bought motorcycles before and knew the market, so she naturally wouldn't let the owner make too much money since she came here today because of an acquaintance.

She said, "Three thousand, you make a little profit, but give us a discount too, we've come all this way."

"I really can't go any lower." The shop owner didn't expect that this young woman would give him the bottom price right away.

"If I can't sell it for three thousand, I won't even cover my costs."

"Really?" Bai Zhi smiled calmly. "Boss, are you trying to send us to other stores?"

"Okay, let's compromise. Three thousand two, at least let me make some profit."

My cousin introduced these two people. He also said on the phone that they are big clients, and if the deal goes through, they will definitely bring their friends later.

Hopefully, he'll offer some concessions to keep these two money-makers.

Large orders haven't been closed for days.

If they can really bring people over, what's wrong with giving up a little profit on this deal?

Lu Ye seemed to have already agreed to the price offered by the boss in his heart. He looked at Bai Zhi and was about to speak when Bai Zhi spoke first, "Three thousand one, consider it as us becoming friends."

As a friend, you reimbursed us for our travel and food expenses, that shouldn't be a problem, right? I trust that someone as big a boss as you certainly has that kind of generosity.

Bai Zhi was truly eloquent, and the two of them had an extraordinary air about them, clearly not ordinary people.

The boss is also happy to operate on a low-profit, high-volume model and hopes that they will introduce customers.

So he pretended to be losing money and sighed, "I really don't make any money at all. Okay, okay, deal, deal."

After inspecting the vehicle, I paid and received an invoice.

Bai Zhi even asked the boss for an extra helmet.

Of course, the boss initially refused to give it to her, as there was no precedent for it, but Bai Zhi was very persuasive.

They also need to introduce their friends to buy cars, so in order to secure the next sale, the boss had to find them an extra customer.

The couple then rode their bicycles onto the main road.

Bai Zhi was extremely excited. She asked Lu Ye, "Shall we ride back today?"

"We can take turns riding, sightseeing and riding at the same time, and we'll definitely be home by the afternoon."

He straddled the car with his long legs, gesturing for Bai Zhi to get in, "Hold on tight, let's drive around the city first."

"Okay."

Lu Ye rode his bicycle with his wife on the back, weaving through the streets and alleys of the city.

This is a completely unfamiliar environment for Angelica dahurica.

She would take a second look at every building and the stylishly dressed pedestrians on the street.

In this era, cities did not have impressive high-rise buildings, and people's attire was not as refined as it would be in later times.

However, their overall spirit is very positive and energetic.
