My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 67 Papa Xu Buys a Car
"What, eighteen salesmen..."

"Dad, do you have so much business to run? Can you manage it? Also, can our small shop support so many people?"

Xu Dong smiled wryly and asked three questions about his quality.

Dad Xu waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, these salesmen have very low basic salaries. If you want to get high wages, you can only run the business based on your ability. We don't support idlers in our store."

"How much base salary do you offer people?" Xu Dong asked curiously.

"500 yuan per month, three days of training, and then go to work directly. If you can't get an order for a month, you can just leave."

"So low!"

Xu Dong was a little speechless. Now that prices are so high, 500 yuan is not enough to even eat. If it is not for the high unemployment rate, if this condition can recruit people, then it will be a ghost.

"I don't care about that. I only value performance here. If I want to get a high salary, I will work hard to run the business. Nothing else will work."

Before he knew it, Dad Xu began to have the "style" of a black-hearted capitalist.

"Dad, how much is the lunar water on your side now?" Xu Dong asked tentatively.

The eldest granddaughter was next to him, and Dad Xu didn't say it clearly, so he slapped his chin secretly.

"One hundred thousand?" Xu Dong confirmed softly.

Dad Xu shook his head and slowly spit out two words: "Million."

Xu Dong couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Tut tut...

Unexpectedly, my father has done such a big business quietly.

The monthly turnover is 500 million, and that is 6000 million a year.

This revenue is higher than that of many medium-sized companies, and it is definitely a hit.

"What about the profit?" Xu Dong continued to ask.

"Because the employee's commission is very high, I don't earn much. Now it looks like three or four hundred thousand a month!" Dad Xu said "modestly".

"It's not too much, so it makes sense to buy a car." Xu Dong nodded.

Dad Xu took advantage of the situation and said his plan:

"Actually, I want to save more money and rent a bigger store by the end of the year. Now this store is indeed a bit crowded."

Xu Dong persuaded: "The store is enough. If you can't, let's rent a warehouse. I think it's more urgent to buy a car."

The house will be renovated next year, and now I rent a large storefront. If it is a long-term lease, it will be a lot of trouble at that time. It is better to wait and talk.

Finally, with the strong support of Xu Dong, Dad Xu finally made up his mind and decided to buy a car first.

……

The next day, which happened to be Sunday, Xu Dong accompanied his father to a used car trading company in the suburbs, which is said to be one of the largest in Yanjing.

As for buying a new car, don't even think about it.

At present, major car companies are still recovering, coupled with the global shortage of parts and components, the current production capacity is very limited, it does not matter, there is no way to get the current car.

"Welcome, are you two here to buy a car?" Maybe it was because of Da Ben's face, the salesman seemed very enthusiastic.

Xu Dong nodded and asked, "Yes, do you have a newer used car here? It's better to be a big brand car."

Since it is used to fill the facade, of course, the first choice for famous brand cars.

"Yes, you two, please come with me. Let's choose a car on the spot."

The salesman led the two of them through the back door, and a large yard of tens of thousands square meters appeared in front of them. Hundreds of second-hand cars were neatly lined up in the middle of the yard, most of which were small cars.

"Is there an imported car?" Dad Xu asked suddenly. As a short video controller, he didn't know everything about cars.

"Of course there is, please come with me."

The three came to a white BMW, and the salesman introduced:
"The two of you came at the right time. We just repaired this BMW X5 yesterday. It is [-]% new. I believe you can guess the cause of the accident, so I don't need to say more."

"Third, what do you think of this car?" Dad Xu asked his son.

Xu Dong is not too knowledgeable, he asked a few common questions in a normal manner, and then asked about the price:
"How much is this car?"

"The price tag is 120 million, and our company also comes with a three-year warranty service."

When Dad Xu heard the price, he retreated on the spot.

What a joke, he has only earned more than 100 million in total in the past few months, how could he use it all to buy a car!

Xu Dong also felt that the price was a bit inflated. If the car was placed last year, it would have been at most 20. Even if the price has skyrocketed now, it will not exceed one million.

"Is there a car worth about 50?" Dad Xu asked directly, throwing away his unrealistic delusions.

The salesman was a little disappointed. With a budget of 50 yuan, he could only buy a mid-range car at most, and the commission was almost two-thirds less.

"There are Fengtian's cars over there. Let me show you guys."

Dad Xu quickly took a fancy to a white Fengtian Crown Lu Fang. The appearance of the car looked very stylish, but it was a little old and almost [-]% new.

Xu Dong drove the car around the yard and found nothing wrong. Overall, he felt pretty good.

Seeing Xu Dong nodding with satisfaction, Dad Xu immediately asked, "How much is this car?"

"53, but we only provide one-year warranty service." The salesman replied.

The price did not exceed Xu Dad's psychological expectations, and the model was also very suitable.

Dad Xu was satisfied, and the next job was to make counter-offers for Xu Dong.

In short, the old nose was abolished, and the price was cut to 50.8 yuan.

"Mr. Xu, you must also know that there is a serious shortage of cars on the market now. Our company's cars are not worried about selling at all, so the price really can't be lowered any more."

Dad Xu couldn't wait to wink, and then Xu Dong nodded and agreed:

"Okay, we want this car."

The salesman finally showed a smile, and rarely helped to calculate the transfer tax, insurance, and other messy miscellaneous expenses.

A fraction of 800 yuan was also erased in the middle.

In a word, now Dad Xu can drive this Fengtian car home with only 55 yuan.

Moreover, the used car company will also assist in applying for a license plate, which can be licensed in as soon as a week.

Fortunately, a few months ago, Yanjing had no license restrictions, otherwise the license plate problem would be more troublesome than buying a car.

It took a whole morning to complete all the formalities, and Dad Xu finally owned the first car in his life.

On the way home, Xu Dong suggested that Dad Xu could learn a driver's license, but Dad Xu refused.

"I'm so old, so it's better to be steady. Anyway, most of the people in the store have driver's licenses, and there's no shortage of a bad old man like me." Dad Xu was very open about driving.

"My mother is still waiting for you to take her for a ride!" Xu Dong joked.

"Old, your mother's biggest wish is to hope that the family can be safe."

This topic is a bit heavy.

In fact, many elderly people in Daxia have the same wish as Xu Ma, but in the next few years, this beautiful fantasy will be completely broken.
