Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 397 Go play somewhere else
The Land Rover Defender 90 pickup truck, a Tomb Raider 60th Anniversary Edition, is extremely rare to see on the road.

Let alone female college students like Zhang Jingyu, even car enthusiasts who don't know the history of Land Rover and have no interest in off-roading wouldn't know about this car.

Mr. Lü has a good eye; he recognized the pickup truck.

The two female college students were stunned for a long time.

Even if it's not a recreational vehicle for the elderly, it looks like something from the last century, and it runs so slowly. How could it be worth a million or two?
It was beyond their comprehension.

Seeing the two female college students looking surprised and clueless, Mr. Lü decided to show off his knowledge and share his insights on cars with them.

"This car is either in a private car museum or in the garage of a wealthy person."

The number of vehicles in the country can be counted on two hands.

Simply put, anyone who can afford this car must be extremely wealthy.

What they're looking for is the joy of playing.

Do you know how we in the off-road community describe this vehicle?

Zhang Jingyu shook her head.

Lu Xuefeng said, "This car doesn't carry people or goods, it's just for show."

Zhang Jingyu was amused.

Now imagine a wealthy person driving this car, lighting a cigar—it certainly looks quite cool.

"Mr. Lü, why is the power of such an expensive car so poor? It's not even as good as my 300,000 yuan Mercedes C260," Zhang Jingyu asked, puzzled.

Mr. Lü shook his finger and said, "This car isn't slow, it's difficult to handle. Its gears are very stiff, so it's not suitable for racing."

But don't let its short wheelbase and 4-meter length fool you; this vehicle is a true off-road machine.

It features front and rear solid axles, a non-unibody chassis, a purely mechanical part-time four-wheel drive system, and Land Rover's own diesel powertrain, boasting high torque and superior off-road performance compared to the similarly sized Jimny.

However, as I said before, the real experts wouldn't drive it uphill or go off-road.

Its best settings are fishing, camping, and drinking coffee.

Zhang Jingyu was completely confused.

Don't understand at all.

However, she could tell that Mr. Lü was full of praise for the car and repeatedly mentioned its rarity, which further proved that the owner of the car was a very powerful and influential person.

Could it be that young man from earlier?
The two female college students realized what was happening at the same time and looked at each other.

Frown slightly.

Unlikely!
"Mr. Lü, let's eat." A-Zhu called out in their direction.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Mr. Lü responded.

I took two female college students to eat roast whole lamb.

The two female college students glanced furtively at Jiang Beicheng, afraid that he would recognize them.

He was even more afraid that he had just overheard them swearing.

“Young Master Jiang, this is General Manager Lü, who runs a logistics business in Chengdu. He’s also one of my clients. We just returned from hiking in Georgia.” Azhuo introduced, “General Manager Lü, this is my good brother, General Manager Jiang.”

Without him, there would be no Mountain and Wilderness Outdoor Club.

The money spent on establishing the Mountain and Wilderness Outdoor Club was all provided by President Jiang.

They haven't asked me for a single penny in return so far; it's practically a gift to me.

President Lü quickly extended his hand to Jiang Beicheng and respectfully addressed him, "President Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you."

In the domestic outdoor community, Mountain Wilderness Outdoor Club is definitely one of the top service companies.

Everyone knows that the boss is Azhuo, who has climbed Mount Zhu twice, but no one expected that it was given to him for free by the big boss, President Jiang.

Zhang Jingyu and her friends stared wide-eyed again. A top-tier outdoor club was being given away for free?
Now we can be sure that the Mr. Jiang in front of us is a real big shot.

Their palms were sweating.

I'm so nervous, I don't know how to eat this meal.

"Mr. Jiang, these two are my friends, university students and outdoor enthusiasts," Mr. Lü introduced them. At this moment, Zhang Jingyu's heart was in his throat.

Jiang Beichen smiled and said, "I ran into her on the road just now. She has a very good voice."

"President Jiang, I...we..." Zhang Jingyu stammered, extremely nervous, unable to continue speaking.

She knew Jiang Beicheng was referring to the incident where they had just been swearing.

President Lü stepped forward to speak up for them: "President Jiang, I've also heard some things about it."

The two girls are still in school and have little social experience.

I'm not good at socializing, so please forgive me if I say anything wrong.

Jiang Beicheng looked at Zhang Jingyu: "With President Lü speaking up for them like this, I think they are very good at socializing."

Lü Xuefeng's smile became somewhat awkward.

He understood what President Jiang meant.

President Jiang was subtly mocking his relationship with the two female college students.

They also regarded Zhang Jingyu and her friends as "socialites" and "outdoor beauties".

The two female college students' faces turned bright red.

This General Jiang is quite skilled.

A single sentence can convey multiple meanings.

The two female students dared not speak. If President Jiang caught them in a mistake, they would probably be humiliated to the point of being unable to lift their heads.

Lu Xuefeng originally thought that he had a good relationship with A Zhuo and that Jiang Beicheng would give him some face, but he did not expect that Jiang Beicheng did not take him seriously.

"President Jiang, if you feel that their presence here is affecting your meal and drinks, I'll have them go back first," said Lü Xuefeng.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and waved his hand: "President Lü, there's no need for that. I came here today just to see my good brother."

You guys do your own thing.

Mutual respect.

Lü Xuewen nodded with an awkward smile.

On the surface, President Jiang's words sound very magnanimous, but what you really understand is, "Go away and have fun, don't bother him."

Looking at it this way, it turns out that not only was he not noticed by President Jiang, but everyone present today was not noticed by him.

"Excuse me, Mr. Jiang." Lu Xuewen raised his glass to Jiang Beicheng, took a sip, and then led the two female professors to another table.

"Hey~, you see, I thought you were a seasoned outdoor enthusiast, so we got together today. I never expected things to turn out this way. I guess I was inconsiderate." Azhuo sighed and said apologetically, "Your status has changed so much now. This kind of party isn't appropriate for you. I shouldn't have bothered you."

"What are you saying, A-Zhuo? No matter how our identities change, we'll always be brothers who've been through thick and thin together." Jiang Beicheng put his arm around A-Zhuo's shoulder and laughed, "Sit down and have a drink."

Have you arranged accommodation for me? I didn't bring any camping gear today.

"That yurt at the very top is reserved for you; it's the perfect spot to watch the sunrise and the sea of ​​clouds," Azhuo said.

"Two grown men, doing something so romantic." Jiang Beichen laughed and clinked glasses with him.

After finishing his drink, Azhuo picked up a knife and cut a lamb chop for Jiang Beicheng, saying, "Try my cooking."

Jiang Beicheng took it and instructed, "Azhuo, go and greet everyone. I'll watch the sunset and enjoy the breeze."

Most of these people today are his regular customers; they are the main focus.

"Okay, I'll come over and keep you company in a bit. Don't worry, I'll definitely have a good drink with you today," A-Zhuo said with a smile.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and nodded.

Leaning back in a portable chair, eating lamb chops and drinking wine, watching the sunset slowly sink below the horizon.

Zhang Jingyu was stunned when she saw the message from her college teacher.

Look up and gaze at the quiet Jiangbei city as it enjoys the sunset.

He turns out to be a major financial backer in the entertainment industry.

"Idiot!" Zhang Jingyu exclaimed in a fit of anger, slapping himself across the face.
