Chapter 110 If you're going to buy it, buy the top-of-the-line version.
Outside the Central Hospital building.
Li Yi felt the check in his pocket. "Sister Wen, what exactly is the situation with Ms. Gu?"
"What's going on?"
"What I mean is, what does she do for a living, and how does she get so much money?"
He spends a hundred million in one go, without even blinking.
Moreover, the other party was just a young and beautiful widow.
Li Yi had been harboring a lot of questions for a long time, but there were too many people in the hospital just now, so he couldn't ask about it in person.
So, as soon as he left the hospital, he couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics either."
Wen Rui shook her head. "I only heard that Gu Yun came back from abroad and owns an overseas fund company with total assets of several hundred billion."
Holy crap! Hundreds of billions?
No wonder he was so generous!
Upon hearing this, Li Yi's eyes widened immediately, and he blurted out instinctively, "If someone marries her now, wouldn't they instantly rise to the top?"
These words immediately earned him two unfriendly glances.
Wang Tao glared fiercely at Li Yi. "Hey, you wouldn't be thinking of doing something like this, would you?"
"Ahem! Sister Wang, I was just saying it casually, why are you overthinking it?"
"What do you mean, 'just saying'? You happen to like older women, don't you? When we first met, you kept staring at her. I bet you're up to something."
"I'm innocent! I only looked at Ms. Gu because she looked exactly like the person described in a book. Besides, Xiao Wu is about my age, how could I possibly have such thoughts?"
"Hmph! Marrying Wu Xiyue will also bring you instant success, and you might even be able to kill both mother and daughter!"
Li Yi stared at Wang Tao in shock, never expecting that she could utter such outrageous words.
"peach!"
Even Wen Rui, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. "Gu Yun does a lot of charity work every year, and the amount of money she donates is countless. She is a respectable person. Don't talk nonsense."
"I was just saying it offhand," Wang Tao said, sticking out her tongue.
She knew she hadn't thought things through and that what she said was a bit too much. "It's all Xiao Li's fault. Who told him to start thinking such nonsense?"
"..." Li Yi simply shut his mouth to avoid being wrongly accused again.
......
Wen Rui had classes in the afternoon, so after leaving the hospital, she went back to Jiangda University alone.
Li Yi first took Wang Tao to the bank to cash the 100 million yuan check.
"[China Construction Bank]: Dear customer, the current available balance of your savings card ending in 9527 is 111,500,836.12 yuan."
As the saying goes, a car is a man's second wife.
When I was broke, it was one thing to mooch off other people's "wives".
Now that we have money, we can't keep relying on other people's money.
Looking at the balance in his bank card, Li Yi said directly, "Sister Wang, it's still early, and there's not much business at the shop. Why don't you come with me to look at cars?"
Wang Tao curled her lip. "Oh, so you're thinking of driving an A8?"
Li Yi didn't pretend and simply nodded, "Mm!"
With this money now, even if the beauty salon doesn't do well in the future, I won't have to worry about making a living anymore.
Therefore, he naturally wanted to realize his dream.
Wang Tao wasn't very interested in the car, so she simply shook her head. "I still have rent to collect for one building. Go ahead and collect it yourself."
Li Yi thought for a moment. Anyway, he wasn't short of money. If the store had a car in stock, he might be able to drive it back later.
So he simply told Wang Tao to drive the car away, and he hailed a ride-hailing car on the roadside.
Forty minutes later, at Hengxin Audi 4S store.
"Hello sir, are we here to look at cars today?"
As soon as Li Yi entered, a female salesperson in uniform greeted him.
He smiled and nodded at the other person, "Yes, do you have an A8 in your store? I'd like to take a look first."
The female saleswoman quickly sized up Li Yi.
Seeing that although he was quite handsome, he was very young and dressed very plainly, the other party immediately understood his situation.
"Okay, handsome, come this way with me."
Although the saleswoman was already convinced that Li Yi definitely couldn't afford the A8, as an excellent salesperson, she didn't show any dissatisfaction.
She even took Li Yi directly to the A8 exhibition area and gave him a detailed introduction.
"Handsome, this is the latest A8 model. It uses an all-aluminum body, which is not only sturdy and durable but also reduces the vehicle's weight, resulting in exceptional driving performance..."
Forget about performance; a car costing over two million is definitely better than a car costing a few hundred thousand.
Li Yi had already made up his mind to buy an A8, so he didn't test drive it. He just opened the car door and carefully looked at the interior.
"Miss, how much is this car?"
"This is the luxury model, with a base price of 78.9..."
"Wait a minute! Something's not right. I remember the A8 costs over two million, how come yours is only seven hundred thousand? That's so cheap!"
Nearly 800,000 is considered cheap?
Seeing Li Yi's arrogant tone, the saleswoman's smile froze. "Handsome, this A8 is just the entry-level model. The two million you mentioned is the top-of-the-line version."
Upon hearing the saleswoman's words, Li Yi suddenly realized what was going on.
So, the cheapest A8 only costs seven or eight hundred thousand!
However, now that I'm a billionaire, I'll definitely buy the top-of-the-line version.
Do you have the top-of-the-line model in stock?
Seeing that Li Yi still wanted to see the top-of-the-line version costing over two million, the saleswoman was speechless. "Handsome, the top-of-the-line A8 needs to be pre-ordered. We don't have any on display in our store."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi frowned slightly. "How long will it take to make a reservation?"
Although the top-of-the-line A8 costs more than a million yuan more than the entry-level version, they look almost the same.
Seeing Li Yi's persistence, the saleswoman could only kindly remind him, "Handsome, if you make a reservation, it may take ten days to half a month, and you will also need to pay a deposit in advance."
Actually, these two cars look quite similar. If you really want to see them, just look at the entry-level model.
Ten days to eight months isn't too long.
Moreover, since the salesperson said that the appearances are all similar, there's no need for me to specifically look at any available cars.
Li Yi was considering whether he should place an order for the car directly.
Just then, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Huh? Li Yi, it really is you!"
Li Yi turned his head and saw that a young couple in their early twenties had walked over sometime earlier.
The next moment, the man in the young couple reached out and slapped him hard on the shoulder. "Old classmate, it's only been a few months since graduation, and you don't recognize me?"
"How could that be! Li Dehui, it's been so long!"
The person who came was none other than Li Yi's college classmate.
Li Dehui is a local of Jiangcheng. His family also owns a small factory and is financially well-off.
This guy used to like showing off back in school, and even looked down on others a bit.
Therefore, Li Yi's relationship with him was just so-so.
However, since they were classmates and have all graduated now, Li Yi doesn't hold a grudge.
Since they had run into each other, after exchanging greetings, Li Yi casually asked, "What, are you here to look at cars today too?"
"That's right!"
Li Dehui looked smug and pointed to the girl next to him.
"Come on, let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Yang Xiaoli. We're getting married soon, so we're planning to buy an Audi A6 today and pick it up in a bit."
