Chapter 1907: You don't know how dark this place is!

Pig-butchering scams are common in every industry.

But the most common ones are setups and schemes among acquaintances.

Moreover, when acquaintances strike, they are often the most ruthless.

The used car market is extremely deep; often, the more you trust a friend, the easier it is to be scammed.

The Porsche 718 that Wang Dalong had his eye on was originally used for rentals in Yazhou, Nanhai, and was itself a flooded car from Su Hang. After being refurbished, it was bought at a low price by a Yazhou rental agency and rented out for over 1,000 a day, recouping its cost in just over a year.

Half a year ago, this car was rented in Yazhou to two young people who had just received their driver's licenses. These two young people drove drunk and had a major accident, resulting in one of them dying on the spot and the other being seriously injured, and the vehicle was nearly totaled.

Afterwards, this car was taken over by the boss of this Jin Ling dealership at an extremely low price, and then a front car body was welded on in Chentian, Guangdong, and it was only after some maintenance that it was shipped to Jin Ling.

However, because the condition of this car was truly too poor, anyone with even a little knowledge could see the trick at a glance, so even though the Porsche market was so good, this car had never been able to be sold.

Unexpectedly, Wang Dalong stepped into this huge pit with one foot.

He muddled through and signed a short-term loan agreement full of traps, and then, holding the money he had just borrowed, he hurriedly ran to the dealership to pick up the car.

His friend Xiaobin prepared a grand car-pickup ceremony for him. This sports car, which had been flooded, had been in an accident, and had even had someone die in it, was tidied up by him to look very decent, and he even tied a big red flower on it, making it look exceptionally handsome.

Wang Dalong, however, was in no mood to admire this sports car he had loved for so long. Just thinking that he might lose thirty or forty thousand upon reselling it made his heart ache unbearably.

At this time, his friend Xiaobin took him to the office, handed him a thick contract, and urged him in a low voice, "Dalong, hurry up and sign the contract first. I have a peer from out of town who is looking for a 718 source, and he's quite anxious. You pick up the car, and I'll arrange for him to come see the car with you. By then, you add 10,000 to the price for him; I estimate he'll definitely want it, and that way you'll earn back your interest money!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Dalong asked pleasantly surprised, "Really, Xiaobin?!"

"Would I lie to you?" Xiaobin gave him a wink and whispered, "Keep your voice down, don't let our boss hear, or he'll definitely scold me."

Wang Dalong hurriedly said, "Okay, okay! Xiaobin, thank you so much for this matter!"

"Don't be polite with me." Xiaobin turned the contract directly to the last page and pointed to the signature area, saying to him, "Hurry up and sign. After you sign, I'll take you to pick up the car!"

"Okay!"

Ten minutes later, Wang Dalong finally picked up the Porsche 718 he had been dreaming of.

Xiaobin held a grand car-pickup ceremony for him, and there was even a beautiful saleswoman to present him with a bouquet of flowers.

Afterwards, Xiaobin instructed him, "Dalong, you drive the car away first. I'll contact that out-of-town peer in a while and let him find you to see the car."

Wang Dalong suddenly saw the clouds part and the sun shine; he was so excited that he forgot about the fact that he had just lost his job.

Afterwards, he thought that since he had paid for the bridge loan for ten days at once, it would be a huge loss if he sold the car as soon as he picked it up.

So, he hurriedly said to Xiaobin, "Xiaobin, can you let your out-of-town friend come see the car a day or two later? I just got the car; at least let me cherish it and enjoy it while it's fresh..."

Xiaobin smiled, "Sure, no problem. There are no similar car sources in the market recently, so he'll definitely be willing to wait two more days. You drive the car away and use it with peace of mind; I'll follow up on that side."

"Great!" Wang Dalong cupped his hands repeatedly in gratitude and said excitedly, "Then I'll drive the car away first. You let him contact me in two days! After the car is sold, I'll treat you to a big meal!"

Xiaobin waved his hand and said earnestly, "No need to treat me to a meal; you've had it tough too!"

Five minutes later, Wang Dalong, filled with extreme gratitude toward his friend, drove the Porsche 718 of his dreams away from the dealership.

At this time, he still didn't know what kind of nightmares were waiting for him later.

Nor would he know that not only would he lose his only 100,000 yuan, but he would also be saddled with high-interest loans, and in the end, he would only be able to rely on his parents selling the house to save him.

At the same time.

Fei Kexin, who was staying at the Jin Ling International Hotel, had just sent Xiao Churan out the door with Kelly West.

After the three women had lunch together, they chatted and talked in Fei Kexin's room for the whole afternoon. It wasn't until dark that Xiao Churan left, still feeling unsatisfied.

After watching Xiao Churan leave by taxi, Kelly West asked Fei Kexin with some surprise, "Miss Fei, I gave the master class spot to Churan entirely for your sake. She isn't stupid; she should be able to see this relationship. Why did she only prepare a gift for me but not for you?"

Fei Kexin said with a smile, "Fortunately, she didn't prepare one for me. If she had really prepared a gift for me, then all my hard work would have been in vain."

Kelly West was very puzzled.

She asked tentatively, "Miss Fei, what do you mean by that? I don't quite understand..."

Fei Kexin said earnestly, "This kind of thing can't be explained in a few words. China is a society of human relationships. Apart from immediate family, almost all other social relationships rely on human favors to push them forward. As the saying goes, 'If a person respects me by a foot, I will respect them by a yard.' This is very different from interpersonal social interaction in Europe and America."

Speaking of this, she paused slightly and added, "A friendly reminder: the best way to get along with Chinese people is to let them owe you a favor."

Kelly West nodded as if she understood, and in her heart, she looked at Fei Kexin, who was much younger than her, with increasing admiration.

Subsequently, Fei Kexin returned to her room and made a phone call to her grandfather, Fei Jianzhong.

Once the call connected, she asked with concern, "Grandfather, are you adapting to everything at Buckingham Palace?"

Fei Jianzhong sighed and said, "Adapting my foot; it feels like being in prison."

Fei Kexin asked puzzled, "Why does Grandfather say that?"

Fei Jianzhong complained, "The staff said that until the auction ends, no one is allowed to leave the hotel, and no one is even allowed to leave their room without authorization. If you want to leave the room, you must first report to them, inform them of the reason you want to leave the room, and you can only leave after their approval. Leaving the room without authorization is considered a serious violation: one warning, and the second time, your qualification to participate in the auction will be stripped..."

Fei Kexin asked in surprise, "The management is so strict?!"

"Yes!" Fei Jianzhong said angrily, "Meals and water are delivered directly to the room by service staff, and the person delivering the meal even has to manage what I wear, insisting that I wear the uniform they issued, otherwise it's considered a violation of discipline. After I eat, I want to go downstairs for a walk, but they don't allow it, saying that walking is not a necessary part and is not approved."

Fei Kexin sighed helplessly and comforted, "Grandfather, this is a seller's market after all. So many people are the same as you, so you don't need to take it too much to heart."

Fei Jianzhong sighed and said indignantly, "You don't know how dark this place is! They won't let me walk, but they say they can send a treadmill to my room. But the service fee for sending a treadmill is actually 680,000!" ===== CHAPTER 1908 =====
