Chapter: 3979
Vivian was naturally thrilled and didn't hesitate to take out his phone and call a friend who sells cars at a second-hand car dealership, intending to buy a used Porsche 718 he had been eyeing for a long time from him.
Although this model is Porsche's most affordable sports car, with a price of only tens of millions of yuan, it has become a very prestigious existence among many young people in the fashion crowd.
Especially at night on the streets, when the convertible top is opened, it allows many young people to feel a sense of pride that is different from others.
So this car is definitely the most popular model at rental car companies in coastal cities.
As a top salesperson for luxury brands, Vivian has always been proud to be on the cutting edge of fashion and is friends with many wealthy women and men on WeChat. What he yearns for most is to own his own Porsche 718.
Buying a brand new Porsche 718, including options, would cost around $70-80 million, not counting the purchase tax, which is indeed difficult for Vivian to bear.
Although his income as a salesperson is not low, due to his high spending habits every day, he has difficulty saving money each month.
Compared to buying a new car, used cars are relatively easy. He has his eyes on a two-year-old 718 with the color and configuration that meet his requirements, priced around $600,000.
Vivian had around $100,000 in savings and was thinking that after next month's paycheck, which would be around $30,000, he could pay half of the down payment to bring back home that Porsche 718.
The friend from the used car shop answered his phone call quickly and asked, "Has the red 718 been sold at your store?"
The other party replied, "It hasn't been sold yet, but someone has already prepared to buy it."
Vivian's eyes widened in concern and he asked, "What time was it decided? Has the payment been made?"
The friend said, "I think there's a deposit of $10,000, saying they'll finalize the deal within today."
As soon as Vivian heard this, he let out a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Since it's just an intention to buy, don't sell it to him! Sell it to me instead, I want it!"
The friend laughed upon hearing Vivian wanted to buy the 718 and said, "You're out of your mind! The price is $60,000, with a minimum down payment of $30,000, plus over $1,000 in first-year insurance. I'm not kidding, where are you going to get that much money?"
Vivian snickered and said, "Oh yeah, look who's talking! Tell me, I just landed a big order today and my paycheck on the 15th of next month will have an additional $30,000 in bonuses!"
"Holy cow!" The other party exclaimed. "Is that true? What kind of big order is this, able to get thirty thousand yuan? Brother, I'm tired of selling used cars, getting only eight thousand yuan a month, how can you make so much money and not worry about it?"
Vivian smiled proudly. "Ah, you think our store just lets anyone in? Our store only recruits a few people each year, but the competition rate is less than one percent! And besides, we're serving high-end customers, and the requirements are very high - not only appearance and quality, but also education and English proficiency. I think even just the English requirement would block you from entering!"
"Damn it!" The other party muttered. "Isn't that just selling clothes and shoes at a counter? Why do they have so many demands? My mom didn't finish elementary school and has been working in a department store all her life!"
Vivian laughed. "A department store sells broken things, can you compare with us? Our store's prices start at seven or eight thousand yuan per shoe, three to five thousand yuan for a piece of cloth - just grab any bag, it's more expensive than the goods on display in a department store a while ago!"
As he spoke, he quickly said again. "Hey, I'm telling you seriously, first figure out how to keep the car, and then go pick it up next month on the 15th for sure!"
The other party thought about it and opened his mouth. "After all, someone has already paid the down payment of ten thousand yuan, so it's not good to leave the car now, or the boss will definitely not agree."
Vivian asked him, "You're saying he only put in an intention deposit of one million yuan? Not a down payment, and it's easy to back out later. If I'm willing to pay more deposit, why don't I just buy the car directly, then go pick it up next month?"
The other party heard this and immediately relaxed, opening his mouth. "If you're sincere about buying this car, give the dealership ten thousand yuan as a down payment, and once we receive the down payment, we'll move the car from the display room to the back storage room - no one else can sell it. Then go pick up the car on next month's 15th, and I'll negotiate with the boss to get you something more."
Vivian was confused. "Why do I need to pay so much deposit? Two thousand yuan is enough, right?" JrNovels.com
