“Brother Bai…” Lin Yun said with a slight smile.
"Oh dear, Master, you can't call me Brother Bai, that would be embarrassing me, you know? If you don't mind, just call me Little Bai like Mengmeng does, okay?" Bai Lin quickly said before Lin Yun could finish speaking.
"That's not a good idea..." Lin Yun said with a smile.
Earlier, judging from Bai Lin's tone, he seemed to have a problem with others calling him Xiao Bai.
"What's wrong with that? Xiao Bai, what an affectionate way to address me! Just call me Xiao Bai, it's settled then, otherwise you're looking down on me!" Bai Lin patted his chest and said, looking like he would get angry with Lin Yun if Lin Yun didn't call him Xiao Bai.
"Alright, I'll call you Xiaobai then," Lin Yun said with a smile.
He found Bai Lin's personality quite interesting.
However, he didn't care what he was called.
"I'm planning to buy a batch of cars this time, mainly for bodyguards, a few for company employees and security guards, and one or two for my personal use. Do you have any suggestions on which models to buy?" Lin Yun asked after a pause.
"Master, how many cars are you planning to buy?" Bai Lin asked, his eyes wide.
Judging from Lin Yun's tone, it seemed like even three or five vehicles wouldn't be enough.
"About ten or so," Lin Yun said after thinking for a moment.
With security guards and bodyguards, a total of thirty people, at least ten vehicles would be needed.
"No wonder you're a master; you even buy so many cars." Bai Lin gave a thumbs up and flattered him.
Then, Bai Lin asked again, "So, roughly what price range?"
"Around one million per car!" Lin Yun said with a smile.
Buying a million-dollar luxury car was his dream. Now that he has plenty of money, he doesn't mind upgrading all the cars he needs to that level. As for the legendary multi-million dollar luxury cars, he won't flaunt them for now.
Although Shenzhen is full of wealthy people, luxury cars worth tens of millions are still very rare. If he were to buy one, it would probably attract a lot of attention very quickly.
The problem remains the same: his current strength isn't quite there yet, and he doesn't want to be too flashy.
Most importantly, he had an idea: after buying the car, he planned to see if he could order some identical cars from an alien civilization, only of better quality, and then use those alien cars on Earth. That way, buying such an expensive car on Earth would be a waste.
"As expected of a master, not only did you buy ten cars at once, but they were all million-dollar vehicles!" Bai Lin gave another thumbs up, flattering him.
Although this was meant as flattery, Bai Lin genuinely admired Lin Yun.
From what Lin Yun just said, most of these cars are for security guards, bodyguards, and company employees. Although there are many wealthy and powerful companies in Shenzhen, there are not many that are willing to provide so many cars for their subordinates.
Moreover, spending ten million at once is no ordinary gesture.
"Stop flattering me, just give me some suggestions on car models!" Seeing Bai Lin's reaction, Lin Yun finally couldn't help but say with a smile.
"Haha, expert, you should really ask Mengmeng for advice on car models. Her family owns a security company, and most of the cars you bought are for security guards and bodyguards. She's the perfect person to ask you this question," Bai Lin laughed, turning to look at Lin Mengmeng.
"Hmm?" Lin Yun's heart stirred; he felt that what Bai Lin said made a lot of sense.
He plans to have cars custom-made by an alien civilization. This needs to be planned carefully, since many of these cars are not for his own use. If the quality is too high, it might cause some problems. Before doing so, it is necessary for professionals to suggest some car models to him.
"If it's around one million per car, I suggest you mainly buy the Diling X6. This model has good quality. There's also the Jianhu A6, Jianhu L7 seven-seater, and Jianhu L9 nine-seater, which are also good. You can diversify the models you buy to prevent unforeseen circumstances..." Lin Mengmeng thought for a moment and said.
"As for your personal vehicle..." Lin Mengmeng paused, then looked up at Bai Lin and smiled, "Xiao Bai, I remember, a couple of days ago, you seemed to have just imported a specially made Diling X9 from overseas..."
"If you have high requirements for safety performance, I suggest you buy that Diling X9. According to Xiaobai, the Diling X9 can withstand machine gun fire, whether it's the glass or the tires, and the other materials and performance are also quite good." Lin Mengmeng turned to look at Lin Yun and smiled.
"The glass and tires can protect against machine gun fire?" Lin Yun looked at Bai Lin and asked in surprise. That car is too amazing!
"That car was custom-made by a wealthy man in a war-torn country, but after it was finished, he didn't want it anymore. I bought it because it was cheap, and it's been delivered for three or four days now, but I still haven't found a buyer. If you want it, I'm happy to sell it to you, as long as you don't mind the car..." Bai Lin said with a wry smile.
"This car isn't selling well?" Lin Yun asked in surprise.
“It won’t sell well. These days, many rich kids buy cars mostly to show off. They want a famous brand, a good-looking exterior, high speed, and a stable ride. These are what most people are looking for… This car focuses on safety, and its defenses are extremely strong. But precisely because of its strong defenses, it’s quite heavy, which makes it much slower… Safety is useless. Our country is in peacetime. People who buy this car can’t exactly drive it like a bumper car, can they…” Bai Lin shook his head and said.
He miscalculated. He bought the car because it was relatively cheap, but he didn't expect it to be so hard to sell in China. He started looking for buyers even before the car arrived, but he still hadn't found one three or four days after it arrived. Compared to the cars that had arrived before, this one was basically a flop.
"Is that car going very slowly?" Lin Yun asked, frowning.
"It's not too slow, it can probably run at 190 yards at most..." Bai Lin thought for a moment and said.
"190 yards? That's slow!" Lin Yun exclaimed in surprise.
He thought that being slow meant being slow, and that the car could only go 110 or 120 miles per hour. In that case, it would be a real shame to have such a car, in case of special circumstances and not be able to go too fast. But he didn't expect that it could actually go up to 190 miles per hour. Where else could it go?
"Compared to the price of this car, it might not be a good deal, or rather, it's not comparable to those pretentious luxury cars..." Bai Lin said with a wry smile.
"Those people buy cars to show off. Racing cars, speeds of 190 miles per hour, are naturally not enough. In terms of safety, this car is far superior to those cars..." Lin Mengmeng rolled her eyes and said.
Her family owns a security company, and her values differ from those of many wealthy young people.
"Racing..." Lin Yun was speechless.
He had heard that some powerful young men liked to race cars in their spare time, and they would race faster than anyone else, sometimes reaching speeds of 190 miles per hour, which was really not enough to keep up with their opponents.
After thinking about it, Lin Yun also thought the car was pretty good.
Before he commissioned the car from the alien civilization, this car could be used by Xia Qingqing, which would give him more peace of mind regarding her safety.
"How much does this car cost?" Lin Yun asked, thinking to himself.
“The price of the Diling X9 is between 1.8 million and 3.5 million. This car is specially made. The original price was 9 million, but I bought it for 5 million. If you want to buy it, you can give me an extra 500,000 for processing fees…” Bai Lin thought for a moment and said.
"Five and a half million? Okay, I'll take it." Lin Yun nodded and said.
He had kept the lie detector on the whole time, and during this time, it didn't indicate that Bai Lin was lying, which meant that what Bai Lin said was true. He didn't hesitate and made a decision quickly.
Speaking of which, many business people, once they start talking business, even with their own relatives and good friends, may not tell the truth. In such a big deal, Bai Lin did not lie at all during the discussion, which was very rare and made Lin Yun look at this person in a new light.
Soon, Bai Lin led Lin Yun and his group to see the car.
At the same time, Lin Yun saw a regular Diling X9 in stock.
This is a very imposing car model. The modified Diling X9 looks more imposing than the ordinary Diling X9. The materials used are noticeably different to the touch.
Lin Yun took it for a test drive and felt that the accelerator, brakes, and shock absorbers were all working well.
Five and a half million, that's a good deal.
Lin Yun nodded slightly.
The highest-spec regular Diling X9 costs 3.5 million yuan, which is only 2 million yuan more than the highest-spec Diling X9.
A car worth five million, bought from abroad, could easily double in price if it went through the normal procedures.
Bai Lin said that because it was a modified Diling X9 model, there was a lot of room for maneuver.
However, five and a half million is really cheap.
The other party should have given him a much better price, and Lin Yun remembered this favor.
Subsequently, at the suggestion of Lin Mengmeng and Bai Lin, Lin Yun bought the remaining nine cars.
Because Lin Yun chose the high-end models, the total price of the ten cars reached 18 million.
It was already 2 a.m.
Although Lin Yun had called Xia Qingqing in advance at Jinjian Security Company to say that he had something to do and might be late, he was still worried that Xia Qingqing would be concerned since it was so late.
After paying at the front desk, Lin Yun planned to leave with his group.
"That kid is right here..."
Just then, several vans stopped in the distance, and a group of people filed out of them. At the same time, a loud shout rang out from them.
"Boom!"
The next moment, the group of people ran quickly toward Lin Yun.
