Chapter 37 The Greatest Work
Chapter 37 The Greatest Work
Wang Dongnian solemnly handed the car keys to Lu Ran.
He smiled and said, "I will arrange a tow truck to transport Mr. Lu's car to Chengjiang City free of charge."
"Mr. Lu, you can also contact me directly in Chengjiang City. I will help you find a shipping company, and the price will definitely be more favorable than the market price."
Lu Ran shook his head and said, "No need, I'll just drive back."
As soon as Lu Ran said this...
Everyone present, including the more than 3,000 viewers in Xiao Mo's live stream, was shocked.
Wang Dongnian paused for a few seconds before speaking: "Mr. Lu, supercars are only suitable for short distances because the costs incurred during their operation are extremely high. Moreover, since the chassis of a supercar is much lower than that of a normal vehicle, it is easy to scrape the chassis, and the repair costs are enormous."
"You'd better hire a tow truck for medium to long distances, and perform routine maintenance to avoid direct sunlight and cold temperatures. This will provide the best possible protection for your vehicle."
Wang Dongnian said that Lu Ran already knew all of this.
But there's a saying that goes something like this: when you don't save your money penny by penny, you'll have no concept of money.
Lu Ran is currently in this mindset.
Although he knew that 26 million was an astronomical figure, it was nothing to him at the moment.
He laughed and said, "I bought a means of transportation, not an ancestor. What use would I have for it if I had to hire a large truck to transport it when I went out?"
Wang Dongnian fell silent again.
Having lived half his life, this was the most pretentious sentence he had ever heard.
If even a seasoned veteran like him is like this, the young people around him are naturally even more shocked by Lu Ran's arrogant demeanor, which refreshes their worldview.
I secretly wanted to call him a bumpkin! But what bumpkin can afford a sports car worth tens of millions?
Liu Yan swallowed hard.
"Hey handsome, are you really planning to just drive away?"
Lu Ran nodded calmly, looking at him: "Otherwise what? A car is for driving, isn't it?"
He stopped arguing with the others, opened the car door, and got in.
The driving experience of a sports car is very different from that of a regular car. If he wants to drive back to Chengjiang City, he will definitely have to get used to it first.
Lu Ran started the car and drove it slowly around the garage a few times. After getting used to it, he increased the speed.
Half an hour later, Lu Ran stopped the car, rolled down the window, and leaned out to greet Lin Shaoxian:
"Mr. Lin, I'll be going now. See you in a few days."
Lin Shaoxian's expression was strange; he was unable to express his current feelings in words.
He raised his hand and smiled, "Okay, take care."
Lu Ran nodded to Wang Dongnian again, then stepped on the gas and drove out of the store.
Wang Dongnian hurriedly shouted, "Slow down, there are speed bumps at the entrance."
"Buzz".
However, Lu Ran didn't slow down at all and sped off with a "whoosh".
Wang Dongnian frowned as he watched.
Wang Jiachao felt as if his heart was bleeding.
It was like the feeling of heartache and helplessness when the goddess he had been longing for ended up with someone else and was kicked out by that person.
Speechless and heartbroken, she said, "I thought he was just joking, I didn't expect him to actually go this far!"
Xiao Mo sighed as she looked in the direction Lu Ran had left, "What a charming man, it's a pity he's not mine."
Studio.
"Comment: Wow, that's awesome! I didn't even dare to drive my Wuling Hongguang like that when I first bought it."
"Comments: This guy is an absolute tycoon!"
"Comment: Sister Xiaomo accidentally wandered into the Heavenly Palace, but unfortunately she couldn't get in. Waaah, so pitiful."
"Comment: You didn't let her off the hook either, upstairs."
Lu Ran drove straight to the highway, attracting 90% of the attention he received along the way.
Even in Tianhai, supercars of his caliber are extremely rare.
Suddenly feeling a bit thirsty, Lu Ran stopped at a high-end milk tea shop in Tianhai, across from a Mi Xue Ice Cream shop. He got out of the car, bought a cup of lemonade, and sat on the hood of the sports car, enjoying the view of the Oriental Pearl Tower while drinking it.
After finishing the drink, he burped and said, "Mmm, delicious."
He threw the empty cup into the trash can, then got back into the car and continued driving onto the highway.
Almost everywhere Koenigsegg went, people took out their phones to take pictures, and the scene of Lu Ran drinking lemon water was captured and uploaded to the internet.
Within just half an hour, it stirred up a public opinion storm in some local circles.
"(The video) I would call the greatest work in human history."
Comment area.
"Dadada:???"
"Grey Wolf: Holy crap, what is this? A Celestial Dragon Yeti."
"Wu Xin replied to Grey Wolf: What the hell is Tianlong Snowman? Are you trying to make me laugh to death?! Hahaha."
"Longdi: This angle, this camera movement, this shooting technique, awesome."
"Haha: Hehe, it's just a business war. This is all orchestrated by the Yeti himself."
"22% of the replies were 'Haha: We're at it again, buddy. Is it wrong for other people to like lemonade?'"
The Chinese server's Han Xin player replied with a laugh: "Dude, I'm the dragon under the tower, untargetable, are you impressed?"
Strangely, no one directed their criticism at Lu Ran himself. Perhaps they were all reasonable people who knew to focus on the issue, not the person.
Lu Ran was unaware of these things.
He drove all the way to the highway toll gate, where he was followed by a number of followers.
Many of them were young people driving rented sports cars.
Seeing that Lu Ran was really about to get on the highway.
Everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
"Holy crap, is this guy really planning to drive his Koenigsegg on the highway?"
"That's amazing! Damn, this is the first time I've ever seen someone drive a supercar over a speed bump without hesitation, especially a top-of-the-line supercar like this."
"He's probably just a clueless idiot who doesn't know anything. He's showing off now, but he'll be crying when he returns the car."
"Is it possible that they didn't rent it?"
After taking the card, Lu Ran drove onto the highway.
Seeing this, the followers could only turn back the way they came. They didn't know if Lu Ran had rented the car, but since they had, they naturally didn't dare to drive too far.
Throughout the journey, Lu Ran maintained a normal speed.
Although supercars offer a great driving experience, giving you a strong urge to accelerate and sprint.
But he's not the type to seek thrills; his personality is more about being steady and composed.
Lu Ran didn't care if someone deliberately overtook him. Using safety to show off was something only an idiot would do, and he didn't need to prove anything to others in this way.
It takes about ten hours to drive from Tianhai to Chengjiang.
Including the time spent resting, finding gas stations, and using the restroom at service areas, Lu Ran didn't arrive in Chengjiang City until noon the next day.
When Lu Ran drove the car to the entrance of the residential area and asked the security guard to open the gate, the security guard was stunned.
Although the security guard didn't recognize what kind of car Lu Ran was driving.
But just by looking at its appearance, you can tell it's definitely not cheap.
This is the first time I've seen this kind of car in this ordinary residential area.
"Young man, your car must be expensive, right?"
Lu Ran smiled and said, "It's alright."
Security guard: "I've seen hundreds of thousands of [items/items]."
Another security guard shook his head and said, "Hey, not just that, I think it'll be one or two million."
"Young man, how much is your car?"
Lu Ran: "Yeah, it's pretty much what you guys said."
"See, I told you, two million is definitely the amount."
The security guard muttered something as he opened the railing for Lu Ran.
Lu Ran nodded and smiled: "Thank you."
They then drove the car into the underground parking garage of the residential complex.

Lu Ran had just parked his car and was about to go upstairs when the system triggered a challenge mission. He smiled and thought to himself, "This system really works when it encounters a challenge."
