Awakening the Daily Intelligence System - Chapter 169
Chapter 169:120, Chen Kainan, long time no see! Visit again the self-built house at No. 139!_4
After handling all the procedures, the salesperson came jogging over with the document archive and said politely, “Mr. Lin, your expedited processing is already being handled. However, the insurance will take a longer time to become effective, and we also have to wait for the temporary license plate to be issued. 1 estimate that you will be able to drive the car away at around 10 p.m.” This was already considered very fast.
Lin Mo had previously understood from online research that it was quite normal to wait a few months to half a year after paying for some luxury car.
His car was available so quickly because the dealership happened to have one in stock.
In fact, it was because the dealership had one in stock that Lin Mo chose this car.
“Alright, then I’ll trouble you to push it a bit more, as 1 need to get on the highway tonight,” Lin Mo said.
After gathering all the paperwork, Lin Mo didn’t linger. He left the Land Rover dealership with his wife and daughter.
Once outside, Lin Mo was in high spirits and asked Li Jinwen with a smile, “It’s still early, shall we go to Yintai for a stroll?”
“I saw this morning that your makeup is almost used up, plus, now that your husband is driving a Land Rover, 1 should buy you some Dior perfume, oh maybe even a handbag or something.”
“Stop right there, those are too expensive; you’re not allowed to waste money like that anymore.” Li Jinwen quickly interrupted Lin Mo, “We’ve already spent over two million on a car today; I’d better not buy those things. Let’s save the money instead; we might need it someday.”
That was what she said,
but which woman doesn’t love beauty?
And which woman doesn’t love branded handbags?
Although Li Jinwen was not materialistic, occasionally seeing other women flaunting their handbags, watches, and exquisite makeup products on social media made her inevitably envious.
Was it vanity?
Indeed, it was vanity.
A normal person living in this world couldn’t possibly lack vanity entirely.
Even the monks at Shaolin Temple lived in merriment nightly and turned the temple into a business venture, treating faith as mere trade.
Perhaps many people were unaware, but in fact, as early as 2015, Shi Yongxin was ranked second among Grand Xia Country’s wealthiest monks with a fortune of 2 billion yuan. So, ordinary people like Lin Mo and Li Jinwen would inevitably follow suit.
Moreover, if one were really to abstain from all worldly desires, life would actually become quite joyless.
“What’s so expensive? We can earn more money in the future. If I dress up this handsomely, it’s only right you pick up a little something too, or else others will say I’m not treating you well,” said Lin Mo.
After speaking,
Lin Mo decisively grabbed Li Jinwen’s hand, “Once we’re at the mall, you don’t worry about anything. Just listen to me; whatever I buy for you, you take it, no complaining about the price!”
“Xiaoxiao, let’s go. Daddy will also buy you a gift!”
Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes sparkled, “Really? Really?”
“Please, let’s not waste—”
Li Jinwen tried to pull her hand away from Lin Mo.
Luxury products…
She truly didn’t dare to even think about them.
Having been frugal for so many years, she no longer had the habit of spending freely.
“Enough talk!”
Lin Mo was very forceful and dragged Li Jinwen into the car.
Li Jinwen kept muttering to herself.
Saying how, at thirty years old, it was wasteful to buy those things.
But…
Heaven knows how happy she was feeling inside.
From four in the afternoon, they spent the entire rest of the day leisurely browsing through various department stores.
Initially, Li Jinwen was quite resistant to the exorbitantly priced luxury items.
But when she put on the expensive luxury products, they did indeed look beautiful, especially some of the decorations on bags and watches—flashing so subtly, they were utterly lethal to women!
Not to mention Li Jinwen,
even Lin Xiaoxiao, when she entered the luxury stores, looked around in excitement, her face full of surprise, as she found it impossible to stop looking.
They shopped until after 9 p.m., when the salesperson from the dealership called to inform Lin Mo that the temporary license plate had been issued and all the other paperwork was in order. Someone at the dealership was waiting for them, ready for their arrival at any time.
Only then did they reluctantly leave the mall. They went first to Shenzhou Car Rental to return the car, then took a taxi to the dealership.
During these few hours, the family of three bought a lot of items. Except for a few, they did not carry them on their person but left an address for the store to ship them back to their hometown.
Lin Mo also took a precaution, not leaving a specific address but just a correct phone number, instructing the courier to contact him once the goods arrived.
In truth, Lin Mo didn’t know if this would be of any use. If there really was a powerful force investigating him, his attempts at deception were too naive.
But it was a habit, one that Lin Mo had to start cultivating from now on.
Although the system information indicated that it would be over a hundred days before Chen Shanhe would take notice of their family,
from the moment he saw the information, Lin Mo was already adding variables to this world.
No one knew if this deadline would change.
Lin Mo had to be cautious and find a way to completely eliminate this major crisis that could lead to the destruction of his family before it arrived.
Moreover, in the past two months, he hadn’t been without preparations!
Apart from gathering intelligence, he also learned many secretive methods from the deep web provided by the system!
Upon arriving at the Land Rover dealership and completing the final handover, the family finally got comfortably seated in their newly purchased Land Rover Range Rover.
Lin Mo fiddled around for a while, familiarizing himself with many of the car’s important buttons, before finally starting the engine and slowly taking to the road.
He could now completely understand the feeling Li Jinwen had when she drove that Wuling MINI.
Because Lin Mo was also quite nervous.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t drive; despite the Range Rover being large and extended, it was actually easier to handle than other cars thanks to various high-tech driving assistance systems..
