How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 230

The few salespeople who hadn’t bothered to greet Yang Chen when he arrived in his JAC [a Chinese car brand] car now shamelessly crowded around, trying to steal the deal.

Yang Chen smiled dismissively and said, “You don’t need to worry about me. I just need her to assist me.”

Those seasoned veterans could only nod awkwardly with forced smiles and quickly retreated to the side.

“Damn, I misjudged him.”

“It’s so illogical. Who comes to buy a BMW in a newly bought JAC car?”

“That silly girl got lucky. Sigh…”

…

At that moment, the top salesperson, Zhang Qin, came out. Seeing everyone gathered around watching the excitement, she joined in.

After hearing the situation from her colleagues, Zhang Qin immediately unbuttoned the top two buttons of her shirt and walked over, chest forward.

She approached Yang Chen and deliberately bent over, using the opportunity of a bow to show off her chest.

Full of tricks, as expected of the top salesperson.

Unfortunately, her 80-point looks [referring to a subjective rating of her attractiveness] didn’t catch Yang Chen’s eye at all. He didn’t even glance at her, his eyes fixed on Zhang Yunyun, who looked like she was about to cry from frustration.

It was quite a sight to see a customer wanting to buy a car from her, yet she was on the verge of tears.

“Hello, sir. What can I help you with? Yunyun is new, so I hope you won’t take it to heart,” Zhang Qin said with a flirty look.

Yang Chen smiled and replied, “No need to trouble you. I like her. I just need her to assist me.”

Zhang Qin thought, “Hmm? A man who can resist my two unbuttoned buttons? Impressive. Seems like I’ve met a master. Well, I’ll have to use my second charm technique then.”

Zhang Qin smiled and said, “Okay! Yunyun, please invite the customer to sit down, introduce the car’s features, and then see what they’re looking for.”

Zhang Yunyun thought the top salesperson was going to teach her how to sell, so she quickly nodded and invited Yang Chen to sit down.

Yang Chen sat down, and Zhang Yunyun began to introduce the Z4’s performance.

Yang Chen didn’t have time to listen to that. These cars were being bought for his employees. They were a group of girls who didn’t have high demands for car performance, nor did they need to understand the technical specifications. Why listen to all that?

Yang Chen quickly said, “I know all this. Go get the manager.”

Zhang Yunyun bit her lip and asked, “Can you bargain a little? Just a little bit.”

Yang Chen sighed and said, “Looks like if I don’t bargain, you’ll have a hard time. Okay, then, is there any discount on this car?”

Zhang Yunyun immediately smiled happily. This was exactly the routine the manager had taught her.

Zhang Yunyun adjusted her emotions and expression, and then quickly started to play the sympathy card.

“Sir, this is already the discounted price. As a newbie, I definitely wouldn’t dare to give you a random price. This is really the best discount.”

Yang Chen laughed and said, “Haha… young lady, routines are rigid, but people are flexible. Why are you still strictly following your manager’s script? If you do that, then my bargaining is pointless.”

Zhang Yunyun thought about it carefully, and it seemed that was indeed the case.

If she continued to follow the routine, Yang Chen’s bargaining would be in vain.

Zhang Qin mocked in her heart, “What an idiot. How can someone so stupid close a deal? Heaven is unfair. I have to sacrifice my body a little, while she can close a deal just by being silly. It’s not fair!”

Zhang Yunyun quickly said, “There’s still a 10,000 yuan [approximately $1,400 USD] discount. I’ll go ask the manager to apply for a better price. Please wait a moment.”

After speaking, Zhang Yunyun got up and ran off.

Yang Chen almost burst out laughing, saying, “Remember to bring your manager over too.”

As soon as Zhang Yunyun left, Zhang Qin felt her chance had come.

She quickly grabbed a brochure and knelt on one knee at Yang Chen’s feet, pressing lightly. This was one of her sales routines, and no male customer had ever been able to resist it.

Yang Chen quickly said, “Excuse me, miss, you’re stepping on my foot.”

Zhang Qin was stunned, thinking, “Is this guy a straight man? Or is he not interested in women?”

Zhang Qin quickly smiled, bowed in apology, and exposed her chest to Yang Chen again.

Yang Chen’s attention was on the brochure, not looking at her at all.

“Oh dear, I’ve really met a master today! My routines don’t affect him at all? There’s definitely no man who can remain unmoved. Either he has a problem with his orientation or his body, otherwise he definitely wouldn’t be able to resist my routines,” Zhang Qin thought to herself.

There was no other way. She had to use her ultimate move.

“Sir, can we exchange contact information? I’ll treat you to dinner, karaoke, and drinks tonight. How about it?” Zhang Qin said.

She had encountered difficult customers before, but they had all fallen at this stage.

Dinner, karaoke, and drinks – the implications were clear.

“Hmph! I can’t handle you?” Zhang Qin thought to herself.

Yang Chen replied expressionlessly, “Thank you, I don’t have time. I have to drive for ride-hailing tonight.”

What the hell?

Driving for ride-hailing?

“Sir, you must be joking. With your wealth, why would you drive for ride-hailing?” Zhang Qin said with a smile.

Yang Chen replied very seriously, “I really am a ride-hailing driver. There’s no need to lie about that.”

Zhang Qin was a little confused. Could a ride-hailing driver afford a Z4?

If they could afford a Z4, why would they still drive for ride-hailing?

She really couldn’t understand this man. He was too bizarre.

At that moment, Zhang Yunyun arrived with the manager.

The manager quickly stepped forward to greet Yang Chen.

Yang Chen cut to the chase, saying, “I’m very satisfied with Miss Zhang Yunyun’s service, and I’m also very satisfied with your Z4. I’ll buy it in full now.”

Manager: “Okay, okay. Thank you, Mr. Yang, for your support of our BMW. If you buy in full, there’s an additional 10,000 yuan discount.”

Yang Chen: “So that’s 500,000 yuan [approximately $70,000 USD] per car?”

Manager: “Yes! 500,000 yuan, and we’ll give you a gas card, window tinting, and three free maintenance services. How does that sound?”

Yang Chen: “Sounds good. Miss Zhang, how many colors did you say this car comes in?”

Zhang Yunyun: “Red, black, silver, blue.”

Yang Chen: “Sufficient stock?”

Zhang Yunyun: “Yes! Sufficient.”

Yang Chen: “Okay, then give me two of each.”

Everyone was shocked. Buying two at once?

The other salespeople were green with envy. They especially regretted not greeting Yang Chen earlier, otherwise Zhang Yunyun wouldn’t have gotten so lucky.

According to the store’s rules, the senior salespeople were all busy, so Zhang Yunyun, as a newbie, was the only one qualified to receive guests.

In other words, they originally had priority, but they gave it up, allowing Zhang Yunyun to get lucky.

Zhang Yunyun secured her position with just two Z4s. No one else could act like a senior in front of her anymore.

The manager was extremely happy and quickly brought over two contracts, saying, “Mr. Yang, let’s sign the contract now. What colors would you like to buy?”

Yang Chen: “Huh? Why do I need to choose colors?”

Manager: “Well, Mr. Yang, we have red, black, silver, and blue. You need to choose the colors, otherwise we won’t know which colors to give you.”

Yang Chen: “But didn’t I say to get two of each color? Four colors, two of each. What color do I need to choose?”

The manager slid off the sofa, landing on his butt with a thud.

Zhang Yunyun quickly helped him up.

The other salespeople’s faces changed. Was this the legendary tycoon?

Two of each color?

Was he buying in bulk?

Was it over?

They missed out on a fortune!

Regret, regret.

Could time be reversed?

Even if they had to kneel and crawl, they would have gone out to greet this tycoon in the JAC.

The manager quickly took a sip of water to calm himself, and then asked, “Mr. Yang, did I hear correctly? Did you say two of each color?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! Two of each color.”

The manager took a deep breath and asked again, “Why are you buying so many cars at once?”

Yang Chen: “For employee cars, and I have a few girlfriends who also need cars. It’ll be more convenient for them to get around in the future.”

Everyone was stunned.

Damn, this was the world of the rich.

Giving employees Z4s, and having several girlfriends. The life of the rich was so decadent, but they also wanted that kind of decadent life.

Zhang Qin now understood why Yang Chen was completely immune to her routines. He was tired of eating different delicacies every day, so why would he be interested in street food?

Now she realized how ridiculous her little tricks were.

The manager quickly brought over six more contracts and immediately started the paperwork for the eight cars.

They had to retain this kind of tycoon for the long term. As his business grew, he would definitely buy more cars for his employees.

“Mr. Yang, we’ll give you an additional 5,000 yuan [approximately $700 USD] discount on each car, and also give you two extra free maintenance services each year. How does that sound?” the manager said.

Yang Chen: “Sure, why not take the discount? Then it’s settled. Have the cars delivered to Villa No. 1 in the Riverside Villa District and have Miss Yu Shishi sign for them. Let’s swipe the card. Hurry up, I still have to drive for ride-hailing.”

The manager was about to get up, but he slipped again and fell on his butt.

A big shot living in Villa No. 1 in the Riverside Villa District driving for ride-hailing?

My god, this world was too crazy.

The manager was a little absent-minded and tremblingly asked the cashier to bring over the card swiping machine.

Yang Chen didn’t even blink, and 3.96 million yuan [approximately $554,400 USD] was swiped away.

Manager: “Mr. Yang, if you need help with license plates, insurance, etc., we can provide free service.”

Yang Chen: “No need, I’ll take them to handle it later. It’s taken up too much time today. I have to go pick up a few more customers before lunch. I won’t test drive the cars, but I’ll say this upfront: if you dare to give me any defective cars, I won’t be so easy to deal with.”

Manager: “Mr. Yang, don’t worry, how would I dare to give a customer like you defective cars? Before they leave the warehouse, I will personally supervise a thorough inspection to ensure that there are no problems before delivering them to your residence.”

Yang Chen nodded, took the car purchase contract, and left.

The manager quickly led the employees out to see Yang Chen off.

The manager shouted, “Mr. Yang, take care, we look forward to your next visit.”

The employees immediately followed suit and shouted, “Mr. Yang, take care, we look forward to your next visit.”

The passers-by were stunned. What was going on? Why were the people at the BMW store so polite to someone driving a JAC car?

When did driving a JAC get you so much respect?

…

At twelve thirty, Yang Chen dropped off a customer at the food street, and he also went in to find something to eat.

It had been a long time since he had eaten spicy hot pot [a popular Chinese street food], and Yang Chen was a little hungry, so he found a spicy hot pot stall to order.

At that moment, a beautiful blonde girl next to him waved a string of meat skewers at the boss, and the boss immediately smiled and replied, “5 yuan.”

Perhaps the boss’s accent was too heavy, and the foreign beauty looked puzzled.

At that moment, a handsome guy next to him volunteered to speak to the beauty in English, “Hi, beauty, let me ask for you.”

The foreign beauty smiled and nodded, thanking him in English.

The handsome guy’s confidence soared, and he said, “Boss, how much is this?”

Boss: “Five yuan!”

The handsome guy immediately said to the foreign beauty, “Five dollars.”

The foreign beauty was surprised but didn’t say anything. She put the meat skewers on her plate and then picked up a string of beef balls. The handsome guy immediately asked, “Boss, how much is this?”

Boss: “4 yuan.”

The handsome guy quickly said to the foreign beauty, “Four dollars.”

The foreign beauty picked up a bunch of spinach. After asking the boss, the handsome guy said to her, “Three dollars.”

The foreign beauty couldn’t bear it anymore and said angrily, “Dollars your sister! Just because I’m a foreigner, you’re trying to rip me off, aren’t you? I’m a genuine Heilongjiang [a province in Northeast China] person, understand? I just can’t understand what she’s saying in Haicheng dialect [a local dialect], but I’m not stupid enough to not know the difference between RMB [Renminbi, Chinese currency] and dollars. Dollars, dollars, do you believe I’ll give you a knife?”

Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh.

The handsome guy said awkwardly, “Oh my, fellow villager. I’m also from Heilongjiang. I’m sorry, I overlooked the currency exchange rate. Leave your WeChat [a popular Chinese messaging app], let’s go out for drinks sometime.”

The foreign beauty shook her head and replied, “No! Get away from me, or I’ll give you a knife!”

The handsome guy quickly dodged away awkwardly.

Yang Chen chose his ingredients and handed them to the boss. At that moment, the Northeastern girl also handed her chosen dishes to the boss.

The two looked at each other, and the Northeastern girl immediately asked, “You seemed very happy just now.”

Yang Chen smiled naturally and said, “I suddenly remembered something funny and couldn’t help but laugh. That’s reasonable, right?”

The Northeastern girl immediately asked, “What funny thing? I’m in a particularly bad mood today. Tell me so I can be happy too.”

The boss took the dishes from both of them and started making the Northeastern girl’s first, according to the number on the plate.

Yang Chen walked to the side and found an empty table to sit down. The Northeastern girl was really enthusiastic and quickly followed him.

“Handsome, tell me, what funny thing? Tell me so I can be happy too,” the Northeastern girl said.

Yang Chen casually replied, “My wife gave birth to twins. Can’t I be happy?”

The Northeastern girl looked at Yang Chen suspiciously and said, “Really? Are you that good?”

Yang Chen: “That’s a superfluous question. When I was in nightclubs, I had a nickname called Electric Little Motor. The girls who dated me all miss me. Last month, a newly married girl jumped off a building, forcing her husband to agree to a divorce, just to be with me. Other girls are using practical actions to prove my strength. Are you questioning my ability?”

The Northeastern girl covered her mouth and laughed, saying, “It’s a waste of talent that you don’t do stand-up comedy. If you did stand-up comedy, Guo Degang [a famous Chinese comedian] could retire. He’d have no way to survive.”

Soon, the proprietress brought over the Northeastern girl’s spicy hot pot.

Northeasterners are very enthusiastic. The girl got along well with Yang Chen and handed him a pair of chopsticks, saying, “Let’s eat together. When yours is ready, you can give me some back.”

Yang Chen joked, “Aren’t you afraid I have some contagious disease? After all, I’m the prince of nightclubs, nicknamed Electric Little Motor.”

The girl laughed and said, “Stop it. People who frequent nightclubs are completely different from you. I have several regulars around me. They all have dark circles, swollen eyes, are listless, and have dry, yellow skin. You’re so energetic. Come on, come on, let’s eat together. As a lady, I’m taking the initiative to invite you. You can’t hurt my self-esteem, right?”

The Northeastern girl knew how to chat. Yang Chen couldn’t resist her enthusiasm, so he took the chopsticks and ate a piece of spinach.

Just then, Yang Chen’s spicy hot pot was ready, so he quickly returned a piece of spinach to the girl, and the two ate their own.

“I was in a pretty bad mood, but after talking to you, I feel much better. Hello, my name is Jenny. My father is from New York, USA, and my mother is from Harbin, Heilongjiang. I joined the Chinese nationality with my mother and grew up in Harbin. I’m a genuine Harbin person. I’m currently the assistant manager of the International Affairs Department of the Ocean Trade Group, responsible for assisting him in international trade negotiations. What’s your name?” the Northeastern girl said.

Yang Chen: “My name is Yang Chen, from Haicheng. I’m currently a ride-hailing driver. So you’re good at international business negotiations?”

Jenny Hathaway nodded and said, “Yes! But this job is not good at all. I’m not the one making the decisions, but when something goes wrong, I’m the one who gets the blame. It’s infuriating.”

She did say she was in a bad mood, so she must have taken the blame for her leader.

If he could poach her, wouldn’t that solve Yang Chen’s urgent need for an international trade negotiation expert?

“People spend more than a third of their day at work. If work isn’t fun, that’s so sad. I also quit my job to drive for ride-hailing because I wasn’t happy at work. Although I don’t earn much, I’m happy every day now. Because I’m doing what I want to do, I don’t have to be ordered around by bosses and leaders, I don’t have to worry about performance, and I don’t have to take the blame for leaders. People only live for a few decades, so why should they spend more than a third of their time being unhappy?” Yang Chen patiently “enlightened” her.

Jenny Hathaway thought Yang Chen was right.

Assuming a person lives to be 80 years old, deducting 20 years before and after, there are only 40 years to freely dispose of.

And more than a third of those 40 years are spent working, which means 13 years are spent at work. If work isn’t fun, doesn’t that mean being unhappy for 13 years?

No, no, that’s terrible.

“Brother Yang, you’re so right. I can’t let myself be unhappy for more than a third of my time. I have to finish eating and go back to resign. I want to learn from you and find a job that makes me happy,” Jenny Hathaway said.

Yang Chen showed a gratified smile. She was teachable.

First, trick her into resigning, and then recruit her.

After eating, Jenny Hathaway quickly went back to the company to resign.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Yu Shishi called Yang Chen.

Yu Shishi: “Sir, oh my god, why did you buy so many cars at once?”

Yang Chen: “I feel like I bought too few. It might not be enough.”

Yu Shishi: “Are you going to give them to others?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! What’s up with your call?”

Yu Shishi: “I’m telling you that all the cars have been delivered. The negotiation expert I told you about just resigned today. I’ve arranged to have dinner with her at Tang Pavilion at 7 pm. Is that okay?”

Yang Chen: “Okay! Contact Tang Pavilion and have them prepare in advance. I’ll be there on time at 7 pm.”

You can never have too many talents. Even if they’re not needed for the time being, it’s okay to keep them. With Yang Chen’s speed of development, he’ll use them someday.

At 6:50 pm, Yang Chen arrived at the Tang Pavilion private room.

When he saw Yu Shishi chatting with Jenny Hathaway, Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh.

When Jenny Hathaway saw Yang Chen coming in, she quickly asked, “Huh? Brother Yang, are you here for dinner too?”

Yu Shishi asked in confusion, “You know each other?”

Jenny Hathaway: “He’s the nightclub prince I told you about, known as Electric Little Motor.”

Yu Shishi burst out laughing and then laughed so hard that she bent over.

Jenny Hathaway suddenly understood and said, “Brother Yang, you deliberately tricked me into resigning, didn’t you?”

Yang Chen quickly replied, “How is that possible? I didn’t know the negotiation expert Shishi was talking about was you. If I had known it was you, I would have poached you directly at noon.”

Yu Shishi: “This shows that you really have a connection. It’s all destined by God.”

Yang Chen: “You know what, I really think it’s a destined connection. Sit down, let’s eat and chat.”

Yang Chen and Jenny Hathaway chatted very congenially, giving Jenny Hathaway a feeling of meeting a kindred spirit.

So, when Yang Chen offered to have her come to work, she agreed without any hesitation.

But then she said, “I heard Shishi say you gave employees BMW Z4s?”

Yang Chen smiled and nodded, saying, “See, I said it might not be enough.”

Yu Shishi pouted and said, “I also wanted to poach her.”

Jenny Hathaway quickly said, “Others have to increase their salary when they change jobs, but I won’t let you increase my salary, but give me a BMW Z4 too, so it’s convenient for me to go to and from work in the future. Is this request too much?”

Yang Chen nodded and said, “Not too much, I can satisfy it. Any other requirements?”

Jenny Hathaway shook her head and said, “No more.”

Yang Chen reached out his hand to shake hers and said, “Then it’s settled. You can coordinate with Shishi for the rest of the matter, and she will arrange it for you. Okay, work is over, the current task is to eat and drink our fill.”

Yu Shishi and Jenny Hathaway clapped their hands happily in response, and the three of them ate happily.

The next day, Yang Chen and Yu Shishi bought insurance for all eight cars and then hired a driver to drive them to get license plates.

When he got home in the evening, Yang Chen sent a message to Yuan Xiaozhao.

“Don’t go out tomorrow morning, I’ll have someone send you something.”

Yuan Xiaozhao replied: “What is it? Give me a little information first so I can prepare in advance.”

Yang Chen replied: “I want it to be a surprise. If you know in advance, will there still be a surprise?”

Yuan Xiaozhao replied: “Okay. I’ll wait tomorrow, hee hee.”

The next day, Yang Chen first ran the morning peak and then called a driver to drive a silver BMW Z4 to the community where Yuan Xiaozhao’s house was located.

When he arrived at the entrance of the community, Yang Chen let the driver go and then called Yuan Xiaozhao.

Yang Chen: “Xiaozhao, come to the entrance of the community to pick up your things.”

Yuan Xiaozhao: “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

A few minutes later, Yuan Xiaozhao ran out of the community gate panting.

She looked around and didn’t see Yang Chen’s car. At that moment, Yang Chen called her.

Yuan Xiaozhao quickly answered the phone and asked, “Bad guy, where are you?”

Yang Chen: “There’s a silver BMW Z4 parked on the side of the road in front of you, do you see it?”

Yuan Xiaozhao: “There’s a silver car, but I don’t know if it’s a BMW Z4. I don’t know much about cars.”

Yang Chen: “There’s only one silver car, it must be it. Go over and try it out.”

Yuan Xiaozhao: “Ah? Whose car is that? What if someone sees me and hits me?”

Yang Chen: “Are you stupid? I’m asking you to try it out, of course I bought it for you! I said I’d give you something, can’t you figure it out? I even doubt how you wrote that book, did you hire a ghostwriter?”

Yuan Xiaozhao: “Ah! For me? Hee hee…”

Yuan Xiaozhao quickly ran over, opened the car door, and sat in.

This convertible sports car, she could only let the characters in her writing drive it. She never thought that one day she could own one herself.

At that moment, Yang Chen walked to her side and asked, “How is it, do you like it?”

Yuan Xiaozhao was startled, turned around and looked up at Yang Chen, and quickly got up excitedly and pounced on him, clamping her legs around Yang Chen’s waist, hugging his neck and kissing him.

At this time, the couples watching were arguing.

Girl 1: “Look at how people chase girls, and then look at you. I’m almost yours, and you haven’t bothered to give me anything valuable.”

Boy 1: “I… give… I can’t afford a car either.”

Girl 1: “If you can’t afford a car, can’t you give me something else? Clothes, bags, cosmetics, can you afford those? Do I have to ask? People give them proactively, can you learn from them? Annoying!”

Boy 1: “Why are we going back? Aren’t we going out to play?”

Girl 1: “Play my ass! I’m not in the mood.”

…

Girl 2 looked at the LV bag in her hand and suddenly didn’t think it was so great anymore.

Girl 2: “Look at how people give BMWs to make their girlfriends happy, and you just gave me a broken bag.”

Boy 2: “But you were so happy when I bought you this bag, and now you say it’s a broken bag?”

Girl 2: “Happiness is a comparative degree. I don’t think I’m as good as others, so of course I won’t be happy! Forget it, here’s the bag back, let’s break up!”

…

After that, girls 3, 4, 5, 6…

All complained to their boyfriends or husbands.

Those men all looked at Yang Chen with resentment.

Brother, let’s just say, when you’re picking up girls, don’t be so generous, okay? What are we poor people supposed to do when you do this? How are we supposed to live?

I didn’t look at the almanac when I went out today. I met a heartless tycoon, crying…
