A week later, the 4S store finally called and informed Li Youran that the ordered Audi Q5 had arrived, and asked Li Youran to pick up the car as soon as possible.
At almost the same time, his driver's license also came out, which was a double blessing.
It happened to be Sunday, so Li Youran notified Fatty and went to the Automobile City to pick up the car.
Of course, Fatty Luo rushed over actively, paid the money, and picked up the car. There was no need to elaborate on a set of procedures. Of course, the car license plate and driving license would have to wait for a few more days, but they were also included in the one-stop service items of the 4S store.
Fatty Luo drove his new car on the road, his round face full of excitement. The smooth operation, even engine, and smooth sound made people feel extremely comfortable.
"Fat man, do you think there should be some kind of novice run-in notice on the rear glass?" Li Youran asked from the passenger seat.
"Are you looking down on me? Why am I, an old driver, doing those things?" Fatty Luo said disdainfully.
In order to show off his driving skills, Fatty Luo stepped on the accelerator and overtook the car quickly to merge, causing the car behind him to honk his horn in protest.
"Hey! Be honest, there are cameras on the road." Li Youran was startled.
"Haha, isn't it true that the card hasn't been played yet? It's rare to be arrogant for two days." Fatty Luo said with a smile.
There was only ten liters of oil in the fuel tank of the new car. After driving for a while, Fatty Luo drove the car into a gas station on the roadside.
Turn off the engine and the two got out of the car.
"Number ninety-seven, fill it up."
The staff nodded, opened the fuel tank cap, inserted the oil gun and started refueling.
Li Youran looked at the price on the brand, No. 97, seven yuan and nine cents per liter.
"The people of our country are really proud. Wages are not in line with international standards, but oil prices are the first to be in line." Li Youran said with emotion.
"Haha, are you a foreigner? What does it mean to be in line with international standards? It is obviously leading the world trend. According to statistics, it is more than 40% more expensive than the United States. The people of the United States are looking up at us with envy." Another person next to him said.
A young man who was waiting for cheers struck up a conversation and corrected Li Youran's misconception.
"Hey, that's not right. Didn't the CEO of Tianjin Petroleum Group come out to refute the rumors a few days ago? He said that our country's oil prices are not high and are at the middle and lower reaches in the world. Midea oil prices are naked prices and do not include tax." Li Youran
asked in confusion.
"That's right. People who don't understand the situation often spread rumors. Can the duty-paid price and the streaking price be compared together? And the leader also said that the calculation method of oil prices is quite complicated, and its difficulty is no less than the work of a programming team.
It’s difficult for non-professionals to figure it out," Fatty Luo explained.
"Haha, this brother is so funny. Some time ago, it was reported on the Internet that Tianyou Oil exported a batch of refined oil products at a low price because the inventory was too high. What is going on?" the young man asked with a smile.
"Of course when the inventory is high, a batch must be promoted, otherwise there will be problems in the normal production process. Since domestic purchasing power is insufficient, it is normal for export promotions to have lower prices. This is also a normal economic activity. And now in the world except our country
There is an economic crisis all over the world, and the foreign people are really suffering. Should we still sell it to them at a high price? That is too inhumane." Fatty Luo shook his head, with a look of sympathy on his face.
"Yes, yes, it's really hard. As a big country, we should still have a bit of internationalism." The young man nodded in agreement.
Fatty Luo was very happy. No, this had corrected another young man's misunderstanding.
"Nowadays, there are a lot of complaints about high prices. Some people make random remarks on the Internet without conducting in-depth investigation, which makes people panic. In fact, not everything in our country is expensive. For example, stock prices are hitting new lows every year, and there are many high-quality stocks.
The price is not even lower than the net worth, and investors are very happy. They can buy a lot of stocks at lower and lower prices. How can foreign people enjoy this kind of welfare?"
After Fatty Luo's in-depth and simple talk, not only Li Youran and the young man who talked to him, but also the oiler felt proud and puffed up his chest.
After coming out of the gas station, the car drove onto the ring road. After a period of familiarization, Fatty Luo's operation became more and more deft.
Li Youran suggested going back to the bun shop first, grabbing Gu Weiwei and Sun Xiaoying, and going for a ride together.
Fatty Luo repeatedly said that it was just what I wanted. As soon as he turned the steering wheel, the car drove south.
After passing Antai Street, the car drove into Shigu Lane and then turned onto the path in the backyard of Baozipu.
A waiter came over and opened the courtyard door, and Fatty Luo drove the car into the backyard. For a while, the clerks who were taking turns came out to see what was going on.
After receiving the call, Gu Weiwei and Sun Xiaoying also came over. Because they heard they were going out to play, Sun Xiaoying put on a dark red coat, carefully combed her braids, and tied up the two bright red bows. Maybe they were from peach blossoms.
Effective, the little face looks sculpted, pure and pleasant.
"Brother Youran, is this the car? It's so big." Sun Xiaoying ran to the car and touched the logo on the front of the car with her hands, feeling very excited.
"Boss Li finally changed his mind. I thought I would ride that bike for another two years." Gu Weiwei also said with a smile.
"I told him a long time ago that the bicycle should have been thrown away long ago." Fatty Luo also joined in the conversation.
"Don't throw it away. That car is quite useful. I'll ask Daniel to clean it up later and give it to the logistics department. After riding it for so long, I'm really feeling a little emotional." Li Youran turned to look at the corner.
I got off the Laoerba bicycle parked quietly, and I still felt something in my heart.
"Look at this guy, he knows how to live a good life. You can't make much money, and you still spend it everywhere." Gu Weiwei stared at the fat man with her almond-shaped eyes.
"Besides buying things for you, how can I dare to spend money randomly? You are wronging me. My mother asked me to save money to marry...that thing. I don't even dare to smoke." Fatty Luo shouted.
Qu.
"Ah, you still want to learn to smoke, let's see how I teach you a lesson then." Gu Weiwei scolded.
Fatty Luo quickly patted his chest to express his loyalty and solemnly declared that even if the tobacco company offered him money to smoke, he would remain firm and would never waver.
Everyone in the yard became happy.
"Get in the car." Li Youran waved his hand and ordered, the door opened, he got on the passenger seat, and Gu Weiwei and Sun Xiaoying sat in the back. The car backed out of the courtyard gate, turned around on the small road, and drove towards Antai Street.
In the car, Sun Xiaoying and Gu Weiwei looked around curiously, touching the leather seats and interior, feeling the comfortable feel. Then they laughed and teased each other from time to time.
"Ranzi, let's play some rock music. Try the sound." Fatty Luo said.
"Pull it down, my heart can't stand that thing, it's like an air hammer."
"Old fashioned."
Li Youran ignored him, opened the CD, and played a piece of soft music. The soothing and smooth music flowed in this small space.
The car was approaching the ring road, and Li Youran asked himself to try it out.
"Boss Li, can you do it? These are four small lives." Gu Weiwei expressed doubts about the novice's skills.
"I was a good student in the driving school, and there were fat people watching me."
The car stopped as instructed and the two changed places.
Li Youran held the gear handle, took a deep breath, and reviewed the driving essentials in his mind.
Release the handbrake, shift into gear, apply the gas, and the car gradually accelerates and moves forward.
"Not bad, a solid start." Fatty Luo praised.
"Brother Youran is the best, I support you." Sun Xiaoying once again expressed her trust in Li Youran.
"Sister Xiaoying is still the best. There will be a bonus this month. Weiwei has no share." Li Youran showed off her management style of clear rewards and punishments.
The car drove into the ring road amidst Sun Xiaoying's giggles and Gu Weiwei's aggrieved complaints.
