CHAPTER 78: CHAPTER 57: SO THIS IS QIN MANMAN [REQUEST FOR MONTHLY TICKETS]_2

Now that there’s money but nowhere to spend it for the time being, and it’s still far from enough for a Sky Falcon, Chu River thought it over and felt like splurging a bit.

So she left her little brother to watch the door and handle orders, while she herself headed to the used car market.

Heavens know how tough it’s been for her to resist watching all these cars on the street during this period, she wanted to take apart every model to see what’s inside!

And the antique motorcycles!

In Beijing, they’re all limited edition, she mostly only saw the traffic cops riding them.

She really wanted to take them apart.

The urge was driving her nuts.

Back when at Tianshui Second High School, climbing over the wall at night, she always wanted to take apart those two big motorcycles in the police station’s yard... if she wasn’t worried about losing control and wasting time, those two bikes wouldn’t have escaped her tinkering.

At this very moment, Chu Fa Da felt that she couldn’t hold back any longer!

After all, this was market research—what if the Sky Falcons she made don’t sell?

...

It has to be said that the all-knowing phone’s recommendations were really useful, in Beijing’s largest used car market, most of the shops had cars under repair in their warehouses.

She just needed to show the intent to buy, and could stroll everywhere, even squatting down to closely watch people take apart engines.

After looking around for a long time, Chu River wasn’t too satisfied.

"This car isn’t quite up to snuff."

In a single sentence—the entire car market was basically rubbish.

The store owner didn’t grasp the deeper meaning of those words, so he enthusiastically asked:

"No worries, what kind are you looking for? If you’re still not satisfied, we have folks here that can help with modifications, making sure it’s all compliant and legal, you’ll hit the road in style!"

Chu River: She wanted to customize her own car.

Can’t make a Hover Shuttle, funds for a Sky Falcon aren’t enough for now, but modifying a car should be fine?

No flying, just the kind that runs on the ground, so low-key!

The more she thought about it, the more tempting it felt.

As for what kind of modifications are compliant and legal... ha, that’s not a problem for Chu Fa Da to consider.

She had never worried about such issues in her life!

Then she turned her head and asked, "Can you customize a car shell here?"

If she’s going to modify it, it definitely needs a different exterior, right?

—Of course we can, car shell accessories and parts are where we make money.

The owner smiled with great cordiality: "Feel free to make any request, as long as you can say it, we can do it!"

...

After a while, Chu River came out sulking.

A bunch of liars!

The owner was also sulking but forced a smile to see her out.

"Look at you, in this hot weather, it’s not easy for anyone, if you have any requirements, just ask, don’t tease us!"

"If Transformers could really be made, they’d be all over the streets by now."

"That little QQ next to it, for 8000, might even turn into a Bumblebee!"

The owner was extremely frustrated.

"Wait a minute..."

Chu River stopped, looking at that little yellow QQ.

"This car is 8000, huh..."

The owner nodded: "Yes, it is."

"It’s almost new."

"Alright, then it’s this one!"

Chu River pointed with her hand: "I’m taking it home today!"

Eight thousand bucks, just for some fun.

This deal wasn’t big enough to boast about, but not too small to mention, at least it soothed the owner’s feeling of being teased.

Now that the paperwork was done, he diligently helped her into the car, but watching her fumbling with the seatbelt, unease crept in—

"Did you... bring your driver’s license?"

Chu River raised her eyebrow at him:

"You guess."

The owner’s face froze, quickly grabbing onto the car door!

"Dear lady, you really can’t drive without a license, careless driving hurts the loved ones!"

Chu River contemplated and said, "I don’t have family."

The owner, nearly stomping his foot in anger: "But others do, what if you scratch or dent someone..."

Chu River: "..."

You’re underestimating me, Chu Fa Da.

But... it’s true that Mountain and Sea Star People have fragile skins.

Though she’s confident that even with a fragile skin she wouldn’t get hurt, others wouldn’t know!

She slowly put down the steering wheel, trying to save face by saying:

"I just want to take a spin around your grounds."

The owner also breathed a sigh of relief: "No problem, hey, Xiao Lin, accompany this guest for a couple of laps."

Not far away, a big guy nodded immediately: "Got it!"

Chu River: "..."

This owner was really on guard.

Fine, when she gets back later, she’ll get a "license" on her phone.

And just at the moment she got off the car, a young girl suddenly came over, also pointing at the little yellow car.

"Owner, how much is this car? It’s so cute."

Chu River looked up: Wow!

Destiny.

This little QQ is so popular now?

The owner was a bit surprised but honestly said: "Oh, well, maybe you should look at something else, someone’s already claimed this one."
