Chapter 161 Another Day to Make Money
The next day.
When Fu Li came to open the store early in the morning, she saw Chen Hui cleaning the parking space in front of the store with a broom.
Thinking of what her son had mentioned to her last night, Fu Li smiled and asked Chen Hui to go to the food stall across the street to eat first, and let Long Po do the cleaning later.
When Chen Hui saw Fu Li, he smiled politely.
"Aunt, I brought this from my house. You can go eat it. I'll just clean it up."
Fu Li looked at Chen Hui, who was the same age as her son, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Ah Hui, your eldest son is already in elementary school, right?"
Less than two years after Chen Hui graduated from high school, he got married to a woman from another place, who gave birth to a big fat boy for him the following year.
Hearing this, Chen Hui rubbed his head shyly and said, "Yes, the eldest is in the first grade, and the second is also in the middle class this year."
"very nice."
Fu Li was a little envious of Chen Hui's parents, who became grandparents at such a young age.
Thinking of her silly son who was thirty years old and still hadn't considered getting married, Fu Li suddenly became furious.
The two chatted for a while.
Zhang Chi and Gangzi drove to work one after another, and first went to the food stall opposite Long Jianchuan to eat a bowl of noodles.
Then he explained the work matters to Chen Hui.
Most of the time, it was Gangzi who talked to him. The relationship between the two was average, but with Zhang Chi as the middleman, Gangzi was not unfamiliar with Chen Hui.
"The work of a car rental company is actually very simple. When someone comes, we introduce the cars in our inventory, and then we register and sign a contract. The price list is now public. If someone wants to bargain, you can just go to Chizi and have a chat. Just give him a discount of 10 or 20 yuan. There is nothing else to do. I will be responsible for the vehicle inspection. We will talk about it after you get the hang of it."
Chen Hui nodded when he heard this. He had been driving Didi for several years and knew some common sense about cars.
I guess it shouldn't be difficult to get started.
Coincidentally, today is the third day of National Day.
Before 9 o'clock, a customer came to rent a car for a self-driving tour to Dalong Mountain.
Gangzi waved his hand and asked Chen Hui to go over and try to receive the guests.
Although Zhang Chi acted as if he didn't care, when he saw Chen Hui taking action, he couldn't help but curiously peek at the door of the store to observe.
It must be said that although Chen Hui is a bit honest and shy, he did not drive Didi for several years in vain.
He is very adept at some basic introductions to people and things, as well as vehicles.
Soon, three cars were rented out to customers: a Toyota Prado, with a commission of 30 yuan, and a Tank 300, with a commission of 50 yuan.
The most amazing thing is that a customer originally wanted to save money and rented the cheapest Mitsubishi Pajero.
In the end, I don’t know how Chen Hui fooled me, and I ended up renting a Land Rover Discovery and getting a commission of 100 yuan.
When Chen Hui went to register for the post, he was stunned when he saw the commission table.
I didn’t expect that I would earn 180 yuan just after starting work. If I work harder, it would not be a problem to earn over a thousand yuan a day.
And he has a guaranteed basic salary of 5000 yuan.
Of course, if business was really that good, Zhang Chi would make a lot of money.
In the morning, only a dozen cars were rented out, most of which were rented out in Gangzi, and the rest were Chen Hui's performance.
Zhang Chi could not favor one over the other. The commission that Chen Hui got was also given to Gangzi, and it was higher than his.
Even so, Chen Hui was very satisfied.
He rented out 7 cars in one morning and made a total commission of 510 yuan, which was much more profitable than his previous job driving for Didi.
Moreover, this job is right next to his home, so if anything happens to the child, he can take care of him immediately.
"Okay, there shouldn't be many people around at noon, let's go eat first."
Zhang Chi was very satisfied with Chen Hui seeing how quickly he got the hang of it.
In this way, Huitou Gangzi can go to the airport branch to be the manager, and the car rental company at the entrance of the village can be handed over to Chen Hui, so he can be at ease and be a hands-off boss.
Come to the food stall.
Because it was dinner time, several tables were occupied by tourists.
Long Jianchuan and his wife were very busy.
Zhang Chi suggested speechlessly: "Uncle Jianchuan, there are so many people here during the National Day holiday, why don't you ask someone to come and help?"
Long Jianchuan glanced at him unhappily and said, "I want to, but the villagers don't like the salary I offer."
His wife was speechless and said, "With the 50 yuan you offer a day, it's impossible for anyone to come."
Hearing this, Zhang Chi smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Jianchuan, now a dishwasher in the county town makes 3000 yuan a month. You are just making trouble."
"Ah, the salary for washing dishes is so high?"
Long Jianchuan looked like he had never seen the world.
Zhang Chi shook his head, knowing that he was worried about the money, and then suggested: "Why don't you get some disposable dishes and chopsticks, otherwise my aunt can't handle it alone."
Everyone looked at Jianchuan's wife, who had to wash the dishes and serve water, and nodded in agreement.
Even a tourist echoed, "Yeah, boss, why don't you get some disposable bowls and chopsticks? Your bowls and chopsticks are greasy and look like they haven't been washed clean."
Zhang Chi leaned over to take a look, and sure enough, that was it.
Not to mention that the water droplets were not wiped clean, why did it feel like there was still a layer of red oil at the bottom of the bowl?
Everyone looked at each other and then looked at Jianchuan's wife.
She was so stared at that she didn't even dare to raise her head.
In fact, you really can't blame her. There were too many customers at dinner time, and the reserved sterilized dishes and chopsticks had been used up. So they could only wash a few sets on the spot for the guests to use.
Besides, a set of sterilized dishes and chopsticks costs 2 yuan, and she thinks there is no need to waste the money.
Zhang Chi shook his head as he watched.
If the food stall doesn't care about customer experience, there's no way it can retain customers.
It seems that I need to find some time to have a good talk with Long Jianchuan. I can't scare away the customers just to save a few dollars.
We have to hire someone to run errands first. If we throw all the chores to Aunt Jianchuan, how can she take care of it?
Fortunately, the convenience store had disposable bowls and chopsticks used in rural banquets.
Zhang Chi went over and got a few sets, asking Long Jianchuan to make do with them for the time being.
Had lunch.
The afternoon started to get busy again.
The roar of engines on the beach behind us never stopped. The gasoline tank was just refilled the day before yesterday, and another tank was delivered today.
Young people today have no way to relieve stress.
Beach racing unexpectedly became popular, and even internet celebrities came to promote it.
Of course, it’s spontaneous and doesn’t require any money from Zhang Chi.
These little internet celebrities are all locals, and some are even from neighboring villages. After their publicity, many locals also know that Xiasha Village has a beach buggy racing project.
In the afternoon, many locals come to play.
Many of them also knew Gangzi and Chen Hui, as the two had delivered oil many times.
Of course, it’s only one or two liters, and Zhang Chi doesn’t care.
Anyway, as long as people come to play, they will definitely make money.
·
"Ah Fei, this car is so cool!"
Lin Fei chuckled, he also thought that this modified Ford Mustang was very cool.
The price is not cheap either. Even if it is a used car that is more than 3 years old, it still costs more than 30 yuan, which is considered high in the used car market.
However, only people who don't understand cars would think so.
You should know that this Ford Mustang has a modified engine, and the rear wing is made of carbon fiber, and the wheels and brakes are also branded products.
If you really count it, the price of this car is definitely more than 50. The reason why the boss sold it to him so cheaply is mainly because this car is already the third hand.
Lin Fei also knew that he had made a great deal, so he rushed here today with money and his ID card.
His business was originally very busy during the National Day holiday, but in order to buy this car, he took an afternoon off.
Now seeing how much his girlfriend likes this car, his satisfaction is beyond words.
"Boss, I'm here to pay."
Zhang Chi saw Lin Fei, smiled, and then gestured to the staff of the Rural Commercial Bank who had been waiting in the room for more than half an hour.
This staff member is from Duntou Village next door.
When I first came to Zhang Chi, I was just trying it out, but unexpectedly I actually got him a business deal.
Although it’s just a short installment of a few hundred thousand, it’s also a good start, isn’t it?
He believed that Zhang Chi would definitely not let him down, and that there would definitely be a lot of similar business in the future.
"Hello, please give me your ID card so I can check your credit history."
After Zhang Chi introduced Lin Fei and the salesperson, he left the space in the store to the two of them.
Then a man walked to the door, pulled a chair and sat down.
Fu Li came over curiously and asked, only to find out that Zhang Chi had sold the Ford Mustang.
The customer is here to apply for installment payment.
“How much did you sell?”
"Not much, 30 million."
Fu Li opened her mouth, glanced at Lin Fei's girlfriend, and asked in a low voice: "How much can you earn from this car?"
Zhang Chi glanced at her unhappily and waved his hand, indicating that such things should not be discussed here.
Lin Fei's girlfriend has been looking at Zhang Chi since the beginning.
Zhang Chi didn't want her to hear anything she shouldn't hear.
However, it seemed as if the girl was staring at him. After looking at him for a while, she took out her cell phone and seemed to want to take a picture of him.
Now Zhang Chi couldn't stand it anymore.
"Well, what are you doing? Our after-sales service is very guaranteed. You don't need to take pictures for record."
The girl was startled when she heard this, and then exclaimed: "It's really you, Binhai Car God!"
Zhang Chi was stunned.
Fu Li also looked at her son suspiciously.
When did this guy become a god?
Lin Fei, who was signing documents in the store, was also attracted by his girlfriend's exclamation.
At this time, the girl became even more excited.
"It's really you, I just thought you looked familiar, God of Cars, can you give me an autograph? No, let's take a photo first!"
Zhang Chi opened his mouth, not knowing how to deal with this sudden fanatical fan.
Lin Fei also came out and looked at his girlfriend curiously.
"A Fei, he is Binhai's car god Zhang Chi, your idol, don't you know?"
Lin Fei raised his eyebrows, turned around and looked at Zhang Chi, and said in a daze: "You really look a bit like him, Boss, you can't be Zhang Chi himself!"
Seeing this, Zhang Chi shrugged helplessly.
Lin Fei excitedly stepped forward and shook Zhang Chi's hand, saying with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, I heard from the people in the group that if I buy a car from you, I can enjoy a flying service. You won't deny it, right?"
Zhang Chi smiled bitterly and nodded.
I just said it casually in Yu Youxi's video, but I didn't expect that someone would actually remember it.
"Well, don't get excited. I can take you flying. Once you sign the contract, I'll take you for a run. But let me tell you in advance that you have to pay for the gas and tire wear."
"Okay, okay, I can definitely take care of myself."
Zhang Chi nodded, glanced at Lin Fei and his girlfriend, and said sinisterly: "By the way, the car can only accommodate one person, who of you will come?"
Lin Fei: "..."
His girlfriend grabbed his neck and acted as if to say, "If you dare to say another word, she will crush you to death."
Zhang Chi found it funny and stopped teasing them.
He motioned for the two of them to get in the car together and just drive around for a while to let them have some fun.
After the money is received, the service must be provided.
Zhang Chi was also saying goodbye to his old friend whom he had worked with for two months.
Apart from anything else, this Ford Mustang will definitely attract a lot of attention when you drive it out.
Especially after Zhang Chi skillfully reversed the car 720 degrees on the spot and burned the tires, the tourists in the parking lot opposite were alarmed and stood on tiptoe to see what was going on.
Zhang Chi didn't run too far, just ran back and forth on the county road.
Along the way, many tourists took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos, which gave him a solid wave of publicity.
In particular, Lin Fei’s girlfriend, who was sitting in the passenger seat, directly turned on the Douyin live broadcast and screamed one after another.
Lin Fei was also extremely excited and watched Zhang Chi's operation without blinking. Unfortunately, although he understood it, it was too difficult for him.
Not to mention the inertial drift at top speed, even a simple drift with the handbrake was a bit difficult for him.
After running a lap.
Lin Fei almost knelt down to become his disciple.
Zhang Chi signaled him to leave quickly, otherwise his girlfriend would no longer be his.
This girl insisted on adding Zhang Chi’s WeChat, and Zhang Chi couldn’t stop her. In the end, he gave her the work number he registered for the job.
After seeing off Lin Fei and his wife and the bank clerk.
The store suddenly became lively.
The auto repair shop, which was originally deserted, was suddenly flooded with more than a dozen men, young and old, all of whom were interested in cars.
While Zhang Chi was busy making tea for the guests, he also had to modestly state that he was really not a professional racing driver.
In the end, no one knew who saw his video on Douyin.
After watching him race at Binhai Park and Haicheng Race Track, everyone wanted to take a photo with him.
The villagers came over to watch the fun.
When the old village chief learned about the situation, he laughed out loud, looking very proud of it.
The villagers also laughed.
Zhang Chi has managed to turn himself into another famous check-in spot in Xiasha Village.
Of course, being watched like a monkey for most of the day does have its benefits.
Many people who have watched Douyin videos are very interested in Zhang Chi’s modified cars.
There were even two tourists who were traveling by car and wanted Zhang Chi to help them modify their RV.
Some even wanted to buy the Ares GTR that he parked at the door.
Zhang Chi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry about this.
People are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat, but there are many benefits to being famous.
Who would have thought that a bald middle-aged man who was taking his entire family on a road trip could suddenly come up with 250 million in cash to buy a car?
This kind of thing can only happen in novels about super-rich people.
He was unexpectedly bumped into by Zhang Chi.
The third day of National Day.
Sold two cars and made a net profit of 280 million.
Beautiful!
