Although the motorcycle was a bit old and not very easy to ride, Liu Zi was taught how to ride it by a stunt motorcycle driver from the film crew.
They were filming deep in the mountains when Liu Zi got bored. A few of them got together and asked the stunt driver to give them a small ride.
To be fair, Liu Zi is bold yet meticulous, and among the group, she is considered to be the best learner.
The mountain path over there was only two meters wide, and everyone was quite timid, afraid of falling into the ditch.
The stunt instructor said that if they could handle these mountain roads, getting a motorcycle license would be a piece of cake.
Following the coach's instructions, Liu Zi first rode the bike herself once.
Starting, driving straight, turning, stopping...
Although her movements were not fast, they were very steady.
The coach, who was also Shi Jianjun's comrade-in-arms, nodded repeatedly in satisfaction.
"Sister-in-law, your friend rides quite well."
"Thanks to your guidance! When you get back, come over for dinner. I'll warm up some wine for you and Lao Shi." Song Yan smiled broadly, quite proud of her sister's abilities, while also praising Lao Shi's character.
"Sister-in-law, you're too kind. I didn't help much. When Company Commander Shi has time, I'll definitely visit your home," the young man said politely.
"Okay, then I'll wait!"
Before they could finish speaking, Liu Zi had already returned.
Zhao Qi had been watching from the side, and when she saw her mother return, she immediately shouted excitedly, "Mom, you're amazing! Mom, you're so great!"
Liu Zili quickly set up the ladder, took off her helmet, smoothed her slightly flattened hair, and then smiled happily.
The exam went as smoothly as they had expected, and Liu Zi obtained her motorcycle license with a perfect score.
The driver's license will take a few more days to get, just like Liu Ziru and Song Yan said this morning. After the exam in the morning, they took them out to eat at a restaurant for lunch.
"Girl, you're too kind. I was just joking this morning."
Song Yan sat down at the restaurant table, feeling embarrassed, and said in a low voice.
"Your brother Shi's comrades aren't here, so we can just grab a bowl of noodles by the roadside."
Song Yan knew that Liu Zi had recently spent a lot of money hiring people to help her.
"I promised Qiqi I'd come in and try it sometime when I passed by here last time. Now that you're here, Sister Yan, we can order a couple more dishes to try." Liu Zi poured tea for Song Yan deftly.
"Then this meal is on me today. What do you want to eat, my dears?" Song Yan smiled and gently flicked Zhao Qi's nose with her hand.
"I still have money for food, Sister Yan, don't try to take it from me. You've been a huge help to me today. I'll need you to come with me to look at motorcycles this afternoon!" Liu Zi disagreed. She had troubled Song Yan so many times these past few days, and if she didn't even treat her to a meal, what kind of person would she be!
Seeing that Liu Zi insisted, Song Yan didn't say anything more, but when ordering, she chose some inexpensive vegetarian dishes.
Seeing this, Liu Zi took the menu back and ordered one of the restaurant's signature dishes.
"Alright, alright, that's too much. We can't eat it all, and it's not good to take it back." Song Yan immediately stopped her when she saw this. She was really afraid of this girl.
Hey, you know what, these days, anyone who can open a restaurant in a county town has to have some amazing skills!
The stewed fish and stewed pork ribs at this restaurant are really delicious.
Zhao Qi's little hands and face were all oily from eating.
"Sigh! It can't compare to the county town! There aren't any good cooks in the village, otherwise the shop's business would definitely be doing well." Song Yan sighed as she ate.
"In the past, drivers didn't have time to eat so slowly like us! They preferred high-calorie, filling, and inexpensive food. Otherwise, why do you think they wouldn't come to the county town to eat?" Liu Zi decided to slowly recount the story of how Song Yan from the future made her fortune, bit by bit, so that she could avoid some detours.
"Hey girl, do you have any good ideas?" Song Yan became interested and leaned closer to ask.
Liu Zi thought for a moment, then said, "How about this, Sister Yan? I'll buy some things later and treat you, Brother Shi, and your parents to dinner tomorrow. You can try my cooking then."
Back then, she spent two days in the kitchen with Song Yan, learning all of Song Yan's signature dishes.
I heard that she learned these signature dishes from a retired chef at great expense.
I heard that as soon as it was launched, its fragrance spread for miles, and drivers would even take detours to go this way. After her own business became prosperous, the surrounding villages also benefited a lot.
"Okay, I'll be waiting!" Song Yan agreed enthusiastically.
In the afternoon, Song Yan didn't go to the department store; instead, she dragged Liu Zi to a motorcycle dealership.
The two analyzed the numerous motorcycles and concluded that the best ones were Japanese Honda, Suzuki, and the domestically produced Haojue.
"Girl, I suggest you buy a motorcycle made by Xiao Rizi. Although it's a bit pricey, the quality is good and it's durable." Song Yan pointed to the row of motorcycles at the front.
Liu Zi didn't speak, she just nodded.
Indeed, people have a lot of trust in small-scale machine manufacturers right now, which means that the quality, performance, and price are all up to standard.
Although a series of scandals such as counterfeit quality products broke out in later generations, at this time in China, Xiao Ri Zi products represented the world's high-end manufacturing level.
Even the most beautiful girls can't compete with them in this regard.
"Sister-in-law, I'm a bit short on cash right now, so I'll just buy a domestic one. I think this new Haojue women's scooter is pretty good." Liu Zi pointed to a red motorcycle displayed in the corner.
"If you buy this one, I can give you a discount," the shop owner said warmly upon hearing Liu Zi's words.
Looking at his unusually enthusiastic boss, Liu Ci suddenly wondered if he had made the wrong choice.
The shop owner noticed Liu Zi and Song Yan's odd expressions and awkwardly said, "Hey, to be honest, these domestically made women's motorcycles don't sell very well here. Families with better financial means buy imported Japanese models, while those with average means only choose domestically made motorcycles because they're more convenient for carrying people and goods. So, in the end, we only have these left unsold."
The boss was honest and laid it all out to them.
"Why are you stocking it if sales are bad?" Song Yan almost blurted out, "Are you a complete idiot?"
"Sigh! Sister, business is tough these days. If you want to sell other brands of motorcycles, you have to listen to their orders. I know it's hard to sell, but there's nothing I can do!" The boss looked distressed.
"Boss, we're just looking around today, we don't plan to buy anything yet," Liu Zi quickly explained, adding that her driver's license hadn't been issued yet, so buying anything now was a bit premature.
"My motorcycle is really good." The shop owner was a little anxious, afraid that his previous remarks had scared the customer away.
"I know, but I just finished my driving test today, and I still have to wait a few days for my driver's license. My sister was so happy that she dragged me here to come and take a look," Liu Zi explained.
