"Buy a car?" The male staff member, referred to as Xiao Liang, was taken aback at first, then immediately turned his curious gaze to Mr. and Mrs. Hu, who were behind Manager Zhang.
The car mall has been open for more than half a year, but there aren't many people coming to buy cars.
You have to understand, cars are a real luxury item these days.
It's not something an ordinary family can afford.
There are also large-scale transactions in the car market, but those are all centralized procurements by government agencies.
It is very rare for someone like Hu Yuan to make purchases privately.
Xiao Liang was initially curious, but after seeing Hu Yuan and Wang Man's attire, his curiosity vanished.
Clothing and appearance are indeed the simplest and most authentic reflection of a person's true situation, and they can also affect other people's first impression.
So it's no wonder that some people judge others based on their clothing.
At this moment, Xiao Liang felt the same way. Although he didn't say it, his first impression of Hu Yuan and Wang Man was that they were not poor, but they were not rich either, and they certainly couldn't afford a car.
Thinking about this, Xiao Liang's enthusiasm waned.
However, his job is as a guide, specifically responsible for introducing the products of the car market to customers who come to the car market.
"Come with me..." Xiao Liang waved to Hu Yuan and then walked towards the auto show hall on his own.
The entire car city is four stories high, but most of the cars are in the lobby on the first floor.
To accommodate these cars, the designer made the first-floor lobby exceptionally large, not only in terms of area but also in height.
"Most of our cars are parked in the lobby on the first floor, and we have all kinds, both imported and domestic!"
Although he had serious doubts about Hu Yuan's abilities, Xiao Liang was very proud when talking about the various cars in the car market, as if they all belonged to his family.
"Mom, there are so many toy cars here!"
Looking at the many new cars in the auto show hall, Xiao Tuantuan was also quite excited.
Although most of the cars at that time had strange shapes and wouldn't suit the aesthetics of later generations, they were very attractive to people at the time.
Wang Man was also dizzy from looking at the cars. After all, there were not only a large number of cars here, but most of them were new cars, so it was a bit overwhelming.
"Most of the cars in this area are domestically produced, with prices ranging from 50,000 to over 100,000 yuan."
As Xiao Liang spoke, he pointed to the spot on his left.
Hu Yuan glanced over and saw that most of these were established domestic brands.
Brands like Beijing, Jiefang, Changan, and Hafei offer both sedans and minivans, with prices under 100,000 yuan.
"That area is full of imported and joint venture cars, so the prices are much higher, with the lowest being over 100,000!"
As Xiao Liang spoke, he pointed to the area on his right.
Although he gave Hu Yuan a brief overview, he didn't go into detail because he thought that Hu Yuan and his friends could only look at it and couldn't possibly afford it.
Compared to domestically produced cars, imported and joint-venture cars do look much better.
Just as Xiao Liang was explaining, Tuantuan couldn't hold back any longer and jogged towards the imported car.
"Hey! What's going on here! Keep an eye on your children, you can't just touch the cars here!"
Seeing Tuantuan's actions, Xiao Liang immediately became anxious and shouted loudly at Wang Man and Hu Yuan.
While shouting, he tried to run over and intercept Tuantuan.
His voice was somewhat shrill, and the moment he spoke, it startled Tuantuan.
Xiao Tuantuan was simply intrigued by the beautiful cars, which is why she had the urge to rush over.
When Xiao Liang shouted at her, Tuantuan was so frightened that she dared not move, and her mouth twitched up, looking like she was about to cry.
Wang Man immediately rushed forward, hugged Tuantuan tightly, and comforted her.
Hu Yuan frowned: "If she doesn't want to touch it, she doesn't want to touch it. Why is she making such a fuss? She's just a child! Besides, what's wrong with touching the car? It's not like it'll break!"
"These cars are so expensive, even if you can't break them, you can't just touch them randomly!" Xiao Liang retorted, somewhat annoyed.
He had no choice but to carry out the task assigned by Manager Zhang.
However, because he simply did not believe that Hu Yuan would buy a car, he was already very agitated.
"I'm here to buy a car. Since I'm already planning to buy one, can't I even touch it?"
Hu Yuan didn't bother arguing with him, but instead asked a question in return.
"You talk like it's the truth! You actually want to buy a car here, Xiao Liang? I suggest you kick this guy out as soon as possible. A penniless wretch dares to say he's here to buy imported cars?!"
Guo Pangzi and his wife had somehow arrived and were looking at Hu Yuan with disdain, mocking him.
He knew Xiao Liang; they had met and spoken a few times during his visits here.
Seeing Hu Yuan and Xiao Liang start arguing, he felt very pleased and immediately began to ridicule Hu Yuan.
"Mr. Guo, you've come too?"
Upon seeing Fatty Guo, Xiao Liang's previously irritated face immediately broke into a smile.
"Xiao Liang, I'm here today to buy a car!"
"Unlike some bumpkins who are poor but still try to act tough, what a waste of your time! Xiao Liang, I advise you to be more careful and keep an eye on this place. Some people here don't even know what they're here for!"
Although Guo Pangzi didn't explicitly say he was talking about Hu Yuan, his words were clearly aimed at him.
Xiao Liang didn't take the mocking words to heart, but he was very happy about Fatty Guo's comment that he wanted to buy a car.
"Mr. Guo, are you really planning to buy a car?"
"Of course it's true! It's just buying a car; I, Guo Shen, have the means to do that!"
Fatty Guo looked arrogant, as if he were the richest man in the world.
"That's right! We're here to buy a car today! Young man, hurry up and get these shady paupers out of here. With them around, I feel like the air here is polluted!"
Guo Pangzi's wife was not idle either; her gossipy nature quickly came out, and she continued to ridicule Hu Yuandao.
"You guys should leave now! You're wasting your time here. I need to introduce a car to Boss Guo!"
Hearing what the two said, Xiao Liang's dislike for Hu Yuan intensified, and he immediately urged Hu Yuan to speak.
"How am I wasting time? Are you deaf? Didn't I just tell you I was going to buy a car?" Hu Yuan frowned, somewhat impatient with Xiao Liang.
"Oh my! You're arguing here, always talking about buying a car! Do you even know how much the cars cost here? Do you even have the money?"
Before Xiao Liang could answer, Fatty Guo stepped forward again.
"If you can afford one car today, I'll buy all the cars here!"
