Chapter 1394 Purchasing a New Car
Leo said calmly, “It’s okay. Just bring as much stuff as you can.”
The Taoist priest was so happy that he nodded his head and left.
Then Leo picked up a hoe and began to dig. He dug quickly and heard a sound when he almost reached the bottom.
The hoe seemed to dig into something hard.
It was a porcelain altar that was broken and there was a book inside. Leo took it out and it was an antique book, reading “For Immortality “.
Leo’s eyes were lit up and he opened it and quickly turned the pages. He was so happy that he couldn’t help to shout out.
At night, Leo lit a candle and read it till midnight. He seemed to enter a metaphysical world of immortal cultivation.
The next day, Leo got up early.
The Taoist priest drove a large truck, full of superstitious stuff.
Two workers unloaded all the stuff, the tombstone wreath as well.
Then they buried the urn and erected a tombstone as what the Taoist priest said.
The inscription read, “Tomb of Ariella “. Leo’s name was showed as “Leo” on the left.
Then cement was paved around it.
The next thing was to burn those stuff which was a troublesome for Leo.
The Taoist priest was murmuring something while Leo burning them. It cost him a whole morning to burn all the stuff.
There were flashes of lights in the yard with smoke.
In the evening, the Taoist priest continued to do the religious rites which finished later than 12 at midnight.
The next day, Leo locked the door and went home. He decided to sweep the tomb in every year’s Memorial Day.
When Leo arrived, Lydia asked, “Is Ariella died?”
Leo said in a deep voice, “Yes. She was buried in Peach Blossom Island.”
Lydia said quietly, “Peach Blossom Island is her hometown. People there all have the surname of Spencer. No wonder she was buried there.”
Leo was speechless.
Lydia said, “Darling. It is the wedding date for Cecil and Erin in a few days. Let’s buy something for them.”
Leo pondered for a moment, “Let’s buy a good car for him. I will do it tomorrow”
Lydia laughed, “Honey, a car worth 200, 000 dollar will be alright.”
Leo snorted and said sarcastically, “Why are you so stingy now? Around two hundred thousand? How can you give them such gift? Cecil and I have gone through so many risks , and how can you give a car worth only 200, 000 dollars?”
Actually, Ariella gave him a card with two hundred billion dollars in it. But Leo dared not tell Lydia about this.
Lydia said eagerly, “You misunderstood me. I want to bid for the construction of a civil aviation. The bid will begin in a few days, and I am in short of money now. I need ten billion dollars. I’ve been borrowing money everywhere these days. Do you have money?”
Leo was stunned, thinking that it could make a fortune and asked, “When?”
Lydia said, “The day after tomorrow. Do you have so much money?”
Leo laughed, “I have ten billion dollars. I will go to bid then.”
Hearing that, Lydia laughed, “Thank you, my daring! Thank you!”
…
Early in the morning in the next day, Cecil was woken up by Leo, “Get up for breakfast. After that, I’ll go buy you a car ”
Cecil got up with a grunt. He rubbed his head, grinned and said, “Master, how can I accept that!”
Leo laughed, “Ha, you are married now. How could I not give you any gift! I don’t want you to be teased by others.”
Cecil, said, “Master, thank you.”
They finished their breakfast and took a cab to a car dealership.
When they arrived, Cecil said nervously, “Master, just buy a car about tens of thousands of dollars will be alright.”
Leo laughed, “Well, after you got married with Erin, you have to call me father. Don’t you dare to call me master again.”
Cecil laughed and immediately called out, “Father.”
Leo laughed, “Good boy.”
The two walked into a brand-name car dealership, and a fat man in professional saw that both Leo and Cecil were plainly dressed.
He asked in a contemptuous manner, “What kind of car are you going to buy? What is your target price? All the cars here are very expensive, and they are not for you poor people.”
Cecil asked with a smile, “Sir, do you have cars worth tens of thousands of dollars?”
Hearing that, the fat man ignored them. He turned around and went inside, “Poor men, I told you already that we have only cars worth millions of dollars.”
At this time, the manager came over and asked the fat man what happened.
The fat man sneered, “They want to buy a car worth around tens of thousands. We don’t sell cheap cars.”
The manager also showed a contemptuous face and laughed, “How can we earn money if only poor people like them come to our shop every day.”
Leo said in a cold voice, “We are the poor people? I want to buy a limited edition of Rolls Royce Phantom. But I won’t buy it in your shop. ”
After that, Leo and Cecil said, “Come on, let’s go to the shop in the next door.”
Then they went to the next store.
The fat man and the manager looked at each other, and they then stood at the door suspiciously to see if they were bragging or not.
Leo and Cecil came to the next house, which was also a brand-name store, full of premium cars.
A little girl came out, wearing professional suits, “Hello, brothers. What kind of car do you want to buy? What style do you like? I can introduce the cars’ configuration and performance for you.”
Leo smiled and asked, “Hello, are you new here?”
The little girl laughed, “Yes. I come from a rural area, and I still have a younger brother who’s in college. We have to borrow money for his study.”
Leo laughed, “Then how much can you get if you sell a car?”
She laughed, “Two dollars if we sell a one hundred dollar. It will be supportive for me even if you just buy a car about 50, 000 or 60, 000.”
Leo laughed, “Do you have any Rolls-Royce here, a limited edition? I want to buy one. You can earn more. 10 million or so.”
She was shocked with her eyes opened wide.
Cecil also opened his eyes wide and looked at Leo incredulously.
The women sitting in the back and drinking tea were also shocked.
They should come to guide Leo and Cecil, but they didn’t bother to do so seeing them dressed in plain. Now, they were so regret.
She stammered, “Is it true? You are not joking, are you?”
Leo laughed, “How could I lie to you! Show me the car.”
“Okay! Okay!”
She couldn’t stop smiling and led the way.
There were two Rolls-Royce Phantom cars in front, a white one and a black one.
Leo picked the black one.
