"Ah! I'm so mad!"
Du Chen was so angry at Li Dewen that he just wanted to open Li Dewen's head to see what had been installed in his head over the years.
"Boss..."
Xiami quietly pulled Li Dewen's sleeve, indicating that he was almost done.
"Brother Chen, calm down! We will be more careful next time!"
Xiami turned around and persuaded Du Chen.
"Phew, I'm not blaming you for spending money on this car, nor am I afraid of losing money, but you could first ask how much it costs. And Brother Li, you keep saying you like cars, but you should have a basic understanding of the common cars on the market, right?"
Du Chen is not afraid of losing money once or twice, but if it continues like this for a long time, no amount of money will be enough to compensate him.
"Du Chen, don't be angry anymore. I'll pay for the car!"
Li Dewen gritted his teeth and said to Du Chen.
"Yes, Brother Chen, the boss and I made the bet, and we both accept the loss!"
Xiami also quickly added.
"Why admit it? I told you I don't have to lose money! In business, there are gains and losses, but Brother Li, you should do your homework carefully next time. You're not afraid of losing money, but you have to learn something, right? When I first asked you to deal in used cars, you were afraid of being ripped off. Minor accidents also carry the same risk. Just because you found a bargain once doesn't mean you'll find it again and again. What I care about is your mindset."
In recent years, Du Chen has rarely said a few harsh words to Li Dewen and Xiami.
"Brother Chen, we know we were wrong! So what should we do now?"
Xiami asked Du Chen in a troubled tone. He originally thought the Miata in front of him was very beautiful and pleasing to the eye, but now he felt his head pounding when he looked at it.
"Let's fix it. Contact the Xiaorizi channel. I just checked and the rear bumper, taillights, and convertible mechanism all need to be replaced."
Things have come to this point, and Du Chen saw that Li Dewen and Xiami's faces were not happy, so he didn't say anything more. He just felt sorry for himself after suffering the loss.
Li Dewen walked towards the office in a depressed mood, preparing to contact Xiao Rizi for accessories, while Xiami stayed to accompany Du Chen.
"What the hell? Let's get Master Qin over here and let him work on the sheet metal. He's free right now anyway."
Du Chen assigned work to Xiami.
After Du Chen calmed himself down, he went to his accessories and started studying them again.
First of all, Du Chen plans to re-cover the entire interior workbench door panel with suede. Du Chen is not considering Alcantara suede at the moment because it is too expensive and there may not be any agents in China. It is not worth it to ship it from abroad by himself. It is more convenient and quicker to find a leather manufacturer to customize it.
Du Chen plans to upgrade his seats to Recaro bucket seats, though they're uncomfortable for long drives, but he's young and has a healthy waist. He's also considering Bilstein suspension, also from Germany. Although the E46 comes stock with Bilstein suspension, Du Chen wants to upgrade to coilovers, which offer adjustable firmness and height.
There are other miscellaneous things that Du Chen is going to do one by one when the time comes, and he will deal with the big things first.
"Xiaomi, come here for a moment!"
Seeing his exhaust pipe, Du Chen suddenly had a new idea.
"Brother Chen, what's the matter?"
Xiami trotted over to Du Chen.
"Xia Mi, if you have nothing to do this afternoon, ask me something."
"Brother Chen, tell me!"
"Look, can you help me find out if there's any titanium alloy pipes made in Beijing? The diameter is 55mm."
Du Chen thought about the titanium alloy exhaust that he couldn't afford before. Now he thought, could he try making it himself? Maybe he could even create his own brand in the future. In Du Chen's opinion, the technical requirements of the mid- and rear-end exhaust pipes were not very high. He had installed countless exhaust pipes before and visited exhaust manufacturing factories. It seemed entirely possible.
"Titanium?"
Xiami asked Du Chen.
"Well, the gold character on the left, the sun character on the right, and the titanium alloy tube!"
"Brother Chen, what is it for?"
Xiami asked Du Chen curiously.
"Modified exhaust!"
"The kind that makes a buzzing sound when you run?"
Xiami's eyes lit up and he asked Du Chen.
"That's right! And it makes a loud bang!"
"No problem, leave it to me. As long as it's in the capital, I'll definitely find it!"
Xiami agreed without thinking. The car purchase today was already a problem, so now he had to show off his abilities.
"Okay then, I'll leave this to you! I have classes this afternoon, so I won't be here!"
Du Chen nodded with relief. He was still very confident in leaving the matter to Xiami.
"Okay, Brother Chen, just wait for my news!"
……………………
"Brother, let's have lunch together!"
On the other side, after several people in dormitory 302 had discussed it, Wang Yue, as a representative, found the counselor in the office. Wang Yue walked into the office with a smile and directly invited the counselor.
The counselor looked Wang Yue up and down and asked without comment.
"You're like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken with no good intentions. Tell me what's going on?"
"Brother, look at what you said. I just happened to be passing by your office. It's almost noon, so I'm going to ask you to go out for lunch!"
Wang Yue smiled and extended the invitation again.
"If you have something to say, just tell me. Otherwise, there will be no such store if you don't leave this village!"
The counselor spoke to Wang Yue unhappily. He knew Wang Yue's shameless character and that he would be easily tricked by the other party if he wasn't careful. They should agree on anything beforehand, otherwise he wouldn't dare let Wang Yue treat him.
