5: A new beginning

"Mr. Jiang, hello. I am Zhang Zhiming, the sales manager of the Mercedes-Benz Shijiazhuang dealership."

As he spoke, he extended both hands to present a gold-foiled business card.

Jiang Yuan took the card and glanced at it casually, but his gaze remained fixed on the aggressive brabus g900 not far away, the corners of his mouth curling up uncontrollably.

"Is this my car?"

He asked, knowing the answer, but could not hide a trace of excitement in his tone.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, this is exactly the brabus g900 you ordered!"

Zhang Zhiming nodded and bowed, his face beaming, "We have completed all the modifications and legal registrations according to your requirements. Look at these body lines, these tire dimensions—it's the perfect combination of ultimate performance and luxury!"

Ya Ya stood to the side, completely stunned.

She widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at Jiang Yuan and then at the beast-like off-road vehicle, a massive storm rising in her heart.

"Th-this car is Brother Jiang's?"

Ya Ya stood frozen, the shock in her heart beyond words. She had originally thought Jiang Yuan just had a little money, perhaps a wealthy second generation with a good family background, but she never expected him to be such a low-key super-rich tycoon. Just looking at the vehicle's imposing aura and its unparalleled modifications, one could conclude that its value was certainly no less than several million.

Even the Land Rover parked nearby looked dull and lackluster in front of this brabus g900, resembling a tamed "little tiger" that had completely lost its usual domineering air.

"Mr. Jiang, these are your car keys and the transaction list."

Zhang Zhiming pulled two heavy, custom-made car keys from his pocket, each exuding a sense of luxury, and simultaneously handed over a thick transaction list, respectfully presenting them to Jiang Yuan.

"Hmm, let's get in and take a look."

Jiang Yuan nodded. After a night of climbing, he was exhausted, but at this moment, the massive surprise and anticipation for his new car instantly invigorated him, a glow appearing in his eyes like never before.

He took the car keys, stowed them away casually, and walked straight to the front of the car.

As he approached, the vehicle let out a soft "beep" and automatically unlocked.

Immediately, he pulled the car door open, and the electric footboard extended silently and automatically, resting steadily beneath the door.

Due to the professional modifications, the vehicle's chassis was much higher than that of an average off-road vehicle, so even Jiang Yuan, who was 1.82 meters tall, needed to use the footboard to calmly sit in the driver's seat.

"What are you standing there for? Get in."

After Jiang Yuan settled in, he turned his head to look at Ya Ya, who was still standing outside the car in a daze, his voice carrying a hint of urgency.

By now, it was fully bright outside, and he was able to clearly observe Ya Ya's appearance.

The young girl was petite and cute, with delicate, light makeup on her face. Overall, if the maximum score was ten, she could get about a 7.5; she was youthful, pretty, and possessed a natural vitality.

"Oh, oh, okay, Brother Jiang."

Ya Ya's expression was a bit vacant. She carefully opened the back seat door, her movements so gentle as if she were afraid of damaging something, and then sat inside with restraint.

Zhang Zhiming, meanwhile, consciously sat in the passenger seat.

"Mr. Jiang, here are two license plates that our company previously purchased and kept. See which one you like, and I'll install it for you right now."

Zhang Zhiming took two brand-new blue license plates from under the passenger seat and respectfully handed them over.

Hebei A69999.

Jiang Yuan hesitated slightly before decisively choosing the first license plate.

The reason was simple: the letter "Y" coincided with the first letter of the pinyin for "Yuan" in his name, making it feel particularly to his liking.

Receiving his instructions, Zhang Zhiming immediately got out of the car and skillfully installed the license plate for him.

During the time it took to install the license plate, Jiang Yuan finally had the time to carefully examine the interior decoration of this brabus g900.

The black and gold interior covered the entire cabin, being both low-key and steady, yet without lacking luxury and grandeur.

Overhead was a brilliant dynamic starlight headliner, with tiny glimmers of light flickering, creating a dreamy and romantic atmosphere; it was very beautiful.

Even the seats featured a unique black dragon-scale texture design. As soon as he sat down, he could feel how perfectly it contoured to the human body, providing excellent support and an incredibly comfortable riding experience.

The visibility throughout the vehicle was astonishingly expansive. Looking through the wide front windshield and comparing it to the small cars nearby, it felt as if he were sitting on top of their roofs, looking down from a high position, overlooking everything.

This vehicle perfectly satisfied all the demands of hardcore off-roading, yet without lacking the ultimate enjoyment of luxury and comfort.

"Brother Jiang... this car... must cost several million, right?"

Ya Ya sat in the back seat, her whole body rigid. It could be said that she didn't even dare to move, fearing she might accidentally damage something. She knew clearly in her heart that if there were any damage, she wouldn't be able to pay for it even if she sold herself.

"Twenty-three million. Not bad, right?"

Jiang Yuan turned his head to the side to look at the still-dazed Ya Ya, a smile curling at the corners of his lips as he nonchalantly stated a number that would be enough to shock an ordinary person.

"Mr. Jiang, the license plate has been installed. Do you still need me to introduce the functions of this vehicle to you?"

At this moment, Zhang Zhiming had finished the installation and asked with a smile while standing at the passenger door.

"No need. I need to find a hotel to rest now. You can do as you please."

Jiang Yuan shook his head. What he needed most now was a good rest, not to listen to a lengthy introduction of the vehicle. He gestured for Zhang Zhiming not to forget the other license plate left in the passenger seat.

"Alright, Mr. Jiang. Then let's add each other on WeChat. If you have any questions regarding the vehicle in the future, you can contact me at any time."

Zhang Zhiming smiled and opened his phone, proactively displaying the QR code, wanting to scan Jiang Yuan's.

"Hmm."

Jiang Yuan responded briefly, and then, under Zhang Zhiming's respectful and smiling gaze, drove the brabus g900 slowly out of the parking lot. Zhang Zhiming, meanwhile, took Jiang Yuan's car keys and went to handle the vehicle he had driven over himself.

"Ya Ya, where do you live? I'll take you back to rest."

Jiang Yuan asked casually while driving.

"Ah, no, no, that would be too much trouble for you, Brother Jiang. Just stop by the side of the road, and I'll take a taxi myself."

Ya Ya hurriedly waved her hands, her face full of embarrassment. She had never met such a generous, wealthy, and handsome client, and she felt both excited and a bit reserved.

"It's fine. If it's nearby, I'll also find a hotel to rest."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand and said casually; to him, this was just a matter of convenience.
