Lin Yifeng took Ye Yuqing into a taxi and made a phone call to Yang Biaozi.
Upon learning that Lin Yifeng had arrived in Tianjin, Yang Biaozi immediately gave him the hotel address, as they would arrive in Tianjin two days later than Lin Yifeng.
When they arrived at the hotel booked by Yang Biaozi, Lin Yifeng couldn't help but tease him.
"Yang Biaozi has really made some money. He can book a hotel like this so easily."
This is a luxury hotel that caters to both foreign and domestic guests, and its decor leans towards a European style.
When she went to get her room key, the employee behind the counter noticed that Ye Yuqing seemed a little lost in thought, and quickly handed her a key.
Lam Yat-fung originally wanted to book two rooms, but under Yip Yuk-hing's gaze, he decisively chose to give up.
Now he understands that this trip to Tianjin is destined to be anything but simple, and he's sure he won't be able to get a good night's rest.
After arriving at their room and putting down their luggage, the two rested for a while in the hotel.
Since the train arrived in the afternoon, I watched TV in the room for a while while the sky outside gradually darkened.
"Come on, what would you like to eat?"
Lin Yifeng got up, picked up his light jacket, put on his shoes, and prepared to go downstairs.
Ye Yuqing, sitting on the edge of the bed, hesitated for a moment.
"steamed stuffed bun."
Lin Yifeng was slightly taken aback.
There are many snacks in Tianjin. Besides the well-known Jianbing Guozi, the most famous snack here is definitely Baozi (steamed buns).
During the Spring Festival Gala of the millennium, the phrase "Goubuli steamed buns" propelled Tianjin steamed buns to their peak.
However, at that time, Goubuli was not yet famous, but the taste of the buns was still acceptable. Lin Yifeng took Ye Yuqing straight to Goubuli buns.
Once inside the shop, it was bustling with customers, each with two baskets of steamed buns and a bowl of hot egg drop soup on their table.
Because the restaurant was crowded, Veronica Yip and Chet Lam were arranged by the waiter to share a table.
They were seated at the same table as a young couple, who were quite hospitable.
Lin Yifeng ordered three baskets of steamed buns and two bowls of egg drop soup, and the two of them started chatting with them.
"Where are you from, buddy?"
"Over in Zhongzhou."
"Hey! Someone from the Central Plains!"
The man took a bite of his steamed bun and continued talking to Lin Yifeng.
"When you come to Tianjin, you really have to try this steamed bun. You guys know how to eat."
"Really? That's good."
After the steamed buns were served, the four people at the table ate them and chatted.
However, Veronica Yip doesn't really like to chat, which is obvious to the young couple opposite her.
The man was around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, while the woman was younger, looking to be around twenty-two or twenty-three.
"What brings you here, brother?"
"I'm here to buy a car and take a trip while I'm at it."
"Hey, you'd better be careful when buying a car these days."
The man was speaking when he suddenly looked troubled and shook his head repeatedly.
Lin Yifeng smiled upon seeing this.
This area is famous for its many waterwheels.
In those days, information didn't circulate well, and many people from other places suffered losses because of this. Someone like Lin Yifeng, who knew the ropes, naturally wouldn't act rashly.
The two were clearly hospitable, explaining the pitfalls to Lin Yifeng.
After resting for the night, Lin Yifeng prepared to take Ye Yuqing to scout out the location early the next morning.
The two quickly arrived at the place where cars were sold.
Unlike other cities, most car dealerships in Tianjin are located near the port in the suburbs.
On the way, Ye Yuqing looked out the window at the rows of warehouses and showed a surprised expression.
As one of the earliest cities to develop industry, the area near the port is filled with large warehouses surrounded by layers of iron fences.
The warehouse naturally contains all types of cars. Its main purpose, besides selling cars, is to supply cars to most cities in the north.
Before even reaching the center of the port, many double-decker trucks had already appeared on the roadside, departing from the port and heading towards the highway entrance.
As the car drove a little further in, various large courtyards began to appear on both sides.
The courtyard is surrounded by signs for various "car dealerships," while inside are offices of small companies used to entertain guests who come here to do business.
After finding a slightly larger courtyard, Lin Yifeng followed Ye Yuqing and began to look around.
As newcomers to the community, many car dealers have set their sights on the two of them.
This place is located deep in the suburbs, and usually only acquaintances come here. There aren't many people here, so the two of them obviously became the target of this group.
"Boss, are you buying a car? We have brand new Tasmans and Jettas here."
"What kind of car does the boss need? Why don't you come and take a look here?"
"Boss, the goods that arrived in my truck just two months ago."
Several car dealers came up to solicit customers.
Lin Yifeng also found someone who looked somewhat pleasing to the eye and went to the office with him.
The offices here are not big, only about 30 or 40 square meters, on two floors.
The first floor is the storefront, with the boss's desk, a fish tank, and a signboard hanging on the wall—a very common style of decoration these days.
A tea table is placed in the second-floor reception room for entertaining guests.
The middle-aged woman leading the way led Lin Yifeng straight to the second floor. The boss, who was sitting behind his desk on the first floor, smiled and waved at Lin Yifeng.
The wooden beads hanging from his wrist and the gold necklace around his neck highlighted his wealth.
