Chapter 49: Lu Family Port Automotive City
“Well, just use your paper bags to pack it up for me, as long as they don’t break, it’s fine,” Xu Fan said indifferently.
“Don’t worry, our paper bags are also of very good quality,” the lobby manager said with a slight smile.
Upon hearing this, the two clerks behind the counter picked up stacks and stacks of banknotes and began filling the paper bags, ensuring they were packed firmly. It took two large paper bags to finally hold Xu Fan’s one million yuan.
One million in cash was packed into two paper bags, and a security guard carrying the bags came out and placed them in front of Xu Fan.
Xu Fan accepted the black diamond card from the lobby manager, picked up the two paper bags, tossed his head, and walked out of the bank.
Inside the bank, many customers who were there to conduct business also saw Xu Fan walk out casually with two bags of money, and immediately felt a mix of envy and awe.
“Rich people really have it easy, carrying two bags of money around like they’re just two bags of potatoes…”
“When I have money someday, I’m going to change it all into banknotes too and use them as a pillow to sleep on…”
“Isn’t this young man afraid of attracting criminals by carrying two bags of cash right out into the street?”
A crowd of onlookers behind Xu Fan chattered away in a jumble of commentary.
By now, Xu Fan had already led Tongtong out of the bank’s doors.
Tongtong hopped and skipped behind Xu Fan, wanting to help her dad and relieve his burden. She stretched out her small hands to try and lift a bag full of cash but, even using all her might, she couldn’t manage to lift the bulging paper bag.
“Daddy, Tongtong can’t lift it…” Tongtong stuck out her tongue and said cutely to Xu Fan.
“Tongtong doesn’t need to carry it. Daddy is like a superhero, lifting a hundred wouldn’t be a problem,” Xu Fan said with a smile as he stroked her head. He then picked up the two paper bags with one hand and carried Tongtong with the other. Amidst the complex gazes of the bank crowd, he walked out onto the main street where the taxis were parked.
As soon as they got into the car, the taxi driver asked Xu Fan, “Young man, is the bank having a promotion today? What’s with the two big bags of eggs? Be careful with your hands and feet. Don’t mess up my car; it costs twenty bucks to wash it.”
The taxi driver, who was idling by the roadside earlier, had seen the LED display at the bank entrance advertising a finance product promotion where customers could exchange 100 yuan for an egg.
Moreover, the paper bags in Xu Fan’s hands were the type used by the bank for promotions, indeed bearing the mark of Zhonghai Jialemei Supermarket’s fresh eggs, so the driver naturally assumed the contents of Xu Fan’s bags were eggs.
“Don’t worry, I won’t dirty your car,” Xu Fan said nonchalantly, raising an eyebrow.
“Young man, you clearly have no experience. You have a child with you. What if the child accidentally kicks over the bag of eggs? Not only will it spill in my car, but you’ll also waste all the eggs you’ve worked hard to get. Take my advice and put them up front,” the taxi driver couldn’t relax and kept prattling on and on.
“Alright, as you wish,” Xu Fan replied, getting somewhat annoyed by the chatter. He grimaced, opened the car door, and got out with the two bags, then with a snap, opened the passenger door, tossed the two bags onto the seat, and slammed the door shut.
As the driver was getting ready to steady the bags, he saw that they were filled with stacks of banknotes and took a sharp breath, his eyes nearly popping out.
“You… you… you didn’t rob the bank, did you…?” the driver stammered, sweat beading on his forehead as he spoke to Xu Fan.
“Just drive, would you? Why all the chatter? Don’t I need to withdraw cash to buy a car?” Xu Fan said coldly.
The driver covertly gauged the thickness of the two bags of money, which surely contained several hundred thousand yuan. He had thought Xu Fan was a poor nobody based on the clothes he wore, which didn’t look to cost more than 200 yuan. Yet, the young man had withdrawn such a huge sum in less than three minutes at the bank. Truly, appearances can be deceiving.
“Handsome guy, I suggest you buy the newly released Mercedes-Benz S600. That car is imposing yet wild, refined with a touch of swagger, a real must-have chick magnet,” the driver spun his eyes around and began to blabber again.
“No talking!” Xu Fan said in a low voice, annoyed by the taxi driver’s loquacity.
Feeling Xu Fan’s irritation, the driver didn’t dare to utter another word and drove in silence towards Lu Family Port Automotive City.
About half an hour later, the taxi finally arrived at its destination. Xu Fan got out with Tongtong and, carrying the two bags full of money, walked toward the entrance of Lu Family Port Automotive City.
Before leaving, Xu Fan tossed two hundred-yuan notes into the taxi coldly and walked away without looking back.
The driver held onto the banknotes, a mix of guilt and sweat on his brow.
He had mistaken a wealthy young master for a nobody and chattered away the whole ride. If this young master had a bad temper and decided to trash his car, he would have had no recourse.
Watching Xu Fan enter Lu Family Port Automotive City, the driver finally breathed a sigh of relief and drove off.
Once out of the taxi, Xu Fan, carrying Tongtong, headed straight for Lu Family Port Automotive City.
Lu Family Port Automotive City was the largest car trading center in Zhonghai City, housing hundreds of car brands. It not only included new car showrooms but also had various trading places for used cars and imported vehicles. Basically, any car on the market could be bought at Lu Family Port.
Xu Fan wasn’t really sure what brand of car he wanted to buy, but since there were so many brands here, he decided to take Tongtong around to browse, treating it as a bit of fun. If Tongtong liked any car, Xu Fan would decide to buy that one.
Right at the entrance of Lu Family Port Automotive Center, there was a row of lockers for customers to temporarily store their personal items. Xu Fan threw the two bags of money into a locker for safekeeping and then started browsing the automotive city with Tongtong.
As soon as they entered, Xu Fan saw many car salespeople in professional attire holding flyers and searching for potential customers.
With many car brands settled in Lu Family Port Automotive City, there was intense competition among them. Every consumer was a potential client, so the salespeople were not content with just staying inside their brand stores. Many ventured into the entrance hall of the car sales center, holding flyers for their cars and looking for interested buyers.
