Dragging Matcha out of the house, Zhao Yao decided that while finis.h.i.+ng up the last of the daily missions, he would also complete the guiding mission at the same time.
"Paying over a million for a car within a week, that should mean I"ll get it immediately, right?" Zhao Yao thought for a moment, and then picked Matcha up and placed him on his shoulder in a single stroke. His brows furrowed slightly, "Silly cat, have you gotten fatter recently?"
Matcha meowed, "If you have a problem with it, then let me go back. Who wants to follow you out anyway?"
Zhao Yao patted Matcha on its head and said, "I brought you out here so that you can become strong. Once your time freeze duration is long enough, we can do whatever we like. You can make love with whichever cat you like, and lick whichever cat"s a.n.u.s you want to lick."
Zhao Yao whipped out his cellphone, and while wandering around the small district, he started looking up information on the 4S shop.
Having looked through car dealer after car dealer, Zhao Yao finally found a "Buy Now" Porsche Panamera in a Porsche dealer"s shop, for 1,050,000RMB.
Zhao Yao didn"t know much about cars, but after seeing photos on the website, he felt that this car didn"t look too bad, and decided to purchase two of them.
He exited the small district immediately, started the car, and headed towards the 4S shop with Matcha.
A male sales manager looked at Matcha - perched on Zhao Yao"s shoulder, and a slight expression of doubt appeared on his face. However, he quickly kept this doubt to himself and said, looking at Zhao Yao, "Mr. Zhao, you are in luck. We usually only do pre-orders here, but one of our customers had suddenly canceled his order after having paid the deposit."
The sales manager led Zhao Yao to the front of a black Panamera. This 4-doored Porsche sports car had a streamlined body which reflected its surroundings like a mirror.
The sales manager presented, "Look at the car"s rear, that"s the spoiler. When the car is traveling below 170km/h, it will maintain a -7° angle, which lowers the drag and improves fuel efficiency.
In Sports mode or Sports+ mode, when its speed goes above 90km/h, the spoiler moves to a +1° angle for improved performance. When the driver opens up the sunroof, it will move at a +26° angle to reduce wind noise.
It has electric suction doors on the front and back, and its back seats are extremely s.p.a.cious, unlike other sports cars which can only fit your baggage. The Panamera can easily fit 4 people without any problem.
Its boot is also very roomy, enough to store 2 luggage bags…"
Zhao Yao listened to the manager"s sales pitch from the side, and although he didn"t know much about cars, he was very satisfied because the Panamera"s aesthetics suited his taste, and on top of its unique appearance, it also had practical functions, which gave off a feeling of subtleness and beauty.
"I want this car." declared Zhao Yao.
The sales manager instantaneously broke into a smile and said, "You came at the right time. We have an ongoing sale, and if you can make the full payment upfront, it will only cost you a discounted price of $998,000."
"$998,000?" Zhao Yao furrowed his brows at the sound of this. His mission required him to spend above $1,000,000.
The sales manager thought that Zhao Yao was not content, and added, "998,000 is already the lowest price. If you"re still not content, we can gift you another 2 complimentary maintenance services, 1 repainting job…"
With a short wave of his hand, Zhao Yao said: "That"s not the problem here. $998,000 is a tad too low. If possible, could you charge me a million and one dollars?"
"..." The sales manager was silent for a moment, and then, with an astonished look in his eyes, said empathetically to Zhao Yao, "You know that $1,000,000 is more than $998,000 by $2,000, right?"
"Stop with your nonsense." Zhao Yao answered, "A million and one dollars, else the deal"s off."
The sales manager had no choice but to consult his superior. Ten minutes later, he said uncertainly, "It can be done, but are you sure…"
"If it can be done, then that"s that. Where do I swipe my card?" Zhao Yao asked.
Following this, the administrative procedures were carried out. Luckily, this Panamera had already been licensed. Zhao Yao paid the sales manager to contact the agency for a foreign license, deciding to submit the foreign license application first, before slowly queuing to bid for a Jiangmen City car plate.
After a series of administrative procedures, Zhao Yao beheld the Panamera in front of him and sighed. He never imagined that he would own his first sports car just like that.
The next moment, he brought Matcha with him and departed from the place in his car, leaving the sales manager with a confused expression on his face, staring at the distant car"s silhouette.
"Rich people really are weird."
With the Panamera"s exceptional sense of control within his hands, Zhao Yao instead felt a peculiar rue and aching in his heart.
Recently, because of the missions, having paid for room decorations, a car, as well as Matcha"s daily food expenses, Zhao Yao card - which contained over 13 million dollars initially - was down to less than a million. These had really burnt a hole in his pocket.
"13 million dollars! Just like that and I"m left with so little."
"My BOOK is way too prodigal."
Nevertheless, just as Zhao Yao finished purchasing the car, his guiding mission and daily missions were finally completed.
The guiding mission provided 20 experience points, while the five daily missions provided a sum of 5 experience points, but upon completion of all five, the daily mission completion reward was obtained, an additional 5 experience points and…
"Diamond?" Zhao Yao reviewed his BOOK, which now, apart from the newly added experience points, also displayed a never-before-seen diamond icon.
BOOK:Lv1 (80/100)
Diamond:1
Pet (1/1): Matcha
Grade:Lv2（9/100）
Loyalty:100
Ability: Timefreeze, Duration: 6s, Cooldown: 6s
Experience, as a result of the 20 points from the car-buying mission, 5 points from the daily missions and 5 points from the additional reward, had reached a total of 80 points.
Apart from that, the only other addition was the diamond that appeared all of a sudden.
"This means that if all the daily missions are completed for the day, I can obtain a reward of 10 experience points and a diamond. So, this can be said to be my daily stable income.
What I still don"t know is the additional reward obtained if I capture a Supercat during the patrolling mission, as well as the purpose of diamonds. If I complete all 5 daily missions and get one diamond each day, maybe there"ll be some special use for them in the future."
With a glimpse at BOOK"s 80 experience points, Zhao Yao thought to himself: Two more days until BOOK can level up, then the pet limit will increase, and the main mission will be completed.
Not long after returning home, his cell phone rang. Zhao Yao glanced down. It was his company"s boss, Yuan Ying. Zhao Yao swiftly pressed "accept".
"Zhao Yao, you are seriously deciding not to continue with this job, is that right?"
Zhao Yao let out an embarra.s.sed laugh, "My apologies, sir. I still feel that I would be better off working on my own."
Yuan Ying replied, "Even if you want to leave, shouldn"t you still finish up this project for me first? You are making things extremely difficult for me if you choose to leave now."
"Finish up this project before you go, and we can part on good terms."
Zhao Yao furrowed his brows. He now has to look after so many cats each day, on top of that he has to complete the daily missions, research on cat feed upgrading and there may be new missions appearing from time to time. With such a high expenditure each day, how could he possibly return to the company to work?
"I"m sorry, I really cannot come back to work."
Yuan Ying said coldly, "Fine, but even if you are resigning, your leaves have been used up. Come back to the company tomorrow to hand over your work."
"Okay." Zhao Yao was not an irresponsible guy. After being gone for so long, it was about time to go back and do a proper handing over and resignation, he thought.
On the other side of the call, Yuan Ying hung up, and with a cold, impa.s.sive look on his face, he shook his head and sighed, "Youths these days…"
After hanging up, Zhao Yao looked over to see a gloomy Elizabeth by the bedside. He opened up Contacts on his cellphone, "It"s about time to check up on the situation."
"h.e.l.lo, Brother Fei? Long time no see."
"Are you free to meet-up sometime this week? It"s been so long, since graduation."
