Downtown, Central Garden, North Hill Park, Minster Tower…
Vivian and Benita had visited most of the famous places in Midwich.
Vivian also realized over the past two days that it was inconvenient not to have a car, so he had the idea of buying a car.
“Benita, what car do you think we should buy?” Vivian looked at Benita and asked.
”What about Maserati? I hear they’re expensive and luxurious.” Benita said with a chuckle.
“So you like to enjoy yourself now.” Vivian quipped.
Benita scratched the back of his head and said, “Commander, I’m human too. I want to use the good ones too. Besides, can’t we enjoy ourselves after half a lifetime of battling in wars?”
Vivian burst into laughter when he heard that.
“Alright, we’ll buy a Maserati…”
***
Midwich’s Maserati car dealership.
Vivian and Benita pushed the door in to see the luxurious cars in the showroom. These cars were all Maserati of different models.
Different models had different pricing, but one would get what they pay. One could look around and see that the more beautiful and stylish the car, the more expensive the price marked next to it.
“We don’t have an appointment with a sales consultant,” Vivian replied calmly.
The sales consultant’s smile instantly widened when Vivian said he had no appointment.
“Yeah, sure…” Vivian nodded.
The female sales consultant asked, “What car do you want? What’s your budget? To be honest, all the cars in our store are Maseratis. You must have heard of Maserati without me introducing it. It’s not something the average consumer can afford…”
“Well… What’s the matter? Do we look like we can’t afford a Maserati?” Benita joked.
The female sales consultant turned around to observe Vivian and Benita. But in the end, she only smiled and said nothing more.
Vivian and Benita dressed ordinarily and did not look rich. However, to follow her company’s rules, the female sales consultant was polite and did not say anything rude. She still planned to show Vivian and Benita the cars.
“Our budget is… Well, we have a high budget. Just show us some of the best cars in your dealership… What do you think?” Vivian said directly without beating around the bush.
“The best cars? Uhm… Sir, our best cars cost more than five million Dragon Dollars. Are you sure…”
