Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 183: Going Home

Chuci truly has a garage, quite literally.

When Jiang Yuan saw the large garage door open revealing rows of various cars, he suddenly realized how big the wealth gap was.

He always thought Chuci meant the underground garage of his community, at most having a few more parking spaces for luxury cars than others, but it turned out he had a garage specifically for his luxury cars!

This is what being truly wealthy is!

In comparison, selling a protective talisman for over three million feels like child’s play.

"I liked cars for a few years; everyone has their youthful indiscretions." Seeing Jiang Yuan dazed, Chuci explained with a smile: "Back then, the internet hadn’t affected things so much, and my father’s business was booming. Some I bought out of curiosity and some were gifted to me, ended up with a flashy collection that mostly sat idle in the garage."

He turned on the garage lights casually, introducing: "See what you like, business, sports, off-road, or classic vintage cars over there."

Jiang Yuan thought he’d be choosing from three or four cars to take out for a spin to feel them out, but Chuci directly had someone bring over a tray of car keys, telling him to use whichever appealed to him temporarily and return anytime if unsatisfied for a change.

"I’ll just test drive; I’m planning to buy a car for going back to the hometown. Rural roads are not very smooth," he quickly explained.

Chuci laughed even more radiantly after hearing this, "Since you’re planning to buy a car, it’s best to go for one that suits your needs. You’ll have to deal with clients in the future, so a good car is necessary to make an impression; and luxury cars face fewer issues on the road. Many drivers will automatically keep their distance seeing the car’s logo; it’s friendly for beginners on the road.

But when you decide which car to buy now, the dealership may not have it in stock. Some orders take half a year or even a year before delivery; you can’t wait endlessly for the car just for a trip back home, can you?"

Is this waiting for a custom level order?

Jiang Yuan wasn’t sure; as someone who knows his earning potential well, he never even entered a dealership. Caught between courtesy and eagerness to return home, he figured an off-road vehicle would be more suitable for the pothole-ridden roads back home.

So, he circled around to spot a white Land Rover at first glance.

"Let me put it this way, as long as you drive steadily and not provocatively, you’ll feel abundant goodwill on the road." Chuci patted the black Mercedes Benz G-Wagon behind him, laughing: "It’s very noticeable compared to the rest. Driving Yang Hongye’s car on the road sometimes invites ridiculous drivers trying to cut you off, but try this and see who dares to mess with you unprovoked."

Jiang Yuan’s gaze was immediately caught by its sturdy lines.

The legendary Mercedes Benz G-Wagon, a luxury car rarely seen on the road!

Of course, rarely seen possibly because he used to commute in crowded subways or buses, never having the time or energy to notice luxury cars passing by.

"Once finances are more relaxed, I’ll buy one too!" He vowed internally, even feeling a bit tempted to sell the white jade protective talisman.

But accumulating faith value relies on charitable orders and is somewhat random; Qiao Mei and others contribute every day, but it’s too little, and making protective talismans isn’t akin to growing cabbages in the field.

Originally intended for his parents to wear, selling one could fund a house for them, yet keeping the jade piece within the family was reassuring.

The main income source in the future would still be incense sticks, better to proceed slowly without haste.

After taking a lap around, Jiang Yuan admitted he completely looked down upon the commuter car he initially planned to buy, waiting for his company’s funds to circulate, fetching a half-million dividend and confidently returning home in lavish style!

For the first time in his life, driving a long distance, Jiang Yuan set out early morning with the sole aim of driving steadily, stopping at service areas when needed, ensuring to reach home before nightfall.

However, he found the journey surprisingly smooth; even at city intersections waiting for red lights, most cars politely refrained from cutting in and honking, even keeping a respectful distance behind him.

Throughout his drive, only a champagne Bentley and a black Maybach received similar courteous treatment.

"The world of wealthy people is full of tolerance; once you’re famous, you’re surrounded by good folks. It’s ironic but undoubtedly true!" After repeatedly receiving envious looks and requests for his WeChat from strangers, Jiang Yuan pointed out the scenery while driving, remarking.

As for scenarios commonly found in novels: driving luxury cars only to be involved in scams, encountering bullies mocking or getting into fights, he naturally avoided them, considering there’s not many bullies loitering around looking for trouble.

After exiting the highway at the county, driving along the not-so-wide township roads towards the village, the boundless fields of wheat mixed with the scent of fresh soil greeted him upfront, reminiscent of those middle school days carrying shovels for tree planting, walking miles in joyous banter under the blue skies and cotton clouds, his memories filled with youthful nostalgia.

Time has flown by, the farmland still sways like green blankets rippled by the wind, reflecting its shape, while the youth endured the harshness of society, finally somewhat standing up with a bit of fortune.

This wasn’t the flamboyant showing off associated with wealth; Jiang Yuan felt an inner calm radiating outward, the calm of not worrying about tomorrow’s livelihood, and finally able to provide for his hardworking parents.

"Hey, is Jiang Yuan back? He’s driving a Benz now?"

"How much did it cost? I always said this kid would make it big! Where are you making a fortune now?"

"Who? Who is this, why does he look unfamiliar?"

"He’s the one from the old who family of southwest corner Jiang Family, last year his mother arranged blind dates but as he had no house or car, people didn’t even meet him."

"There are quite a few Jiang’s in the southwest corner of the ninth team, still can’t figure out who."

"His grandfather had cancer, spent tens of thousands in hospital, but didn’t live long, right?"

"Exactly! From his family. At that time, people said his dad was stubborn spending all that money, ended up losing the person and couldn’t even renovate the house, how would the kid find a wife..." freewebnσvel.cøm

........

Just as Jiang Yuan drove into the village, the gossip organization sitting under the big tree at the village entrance buzzed with excitement.

There were sharp-eyed ones wanting to chat and those whispering while playing cards extending their necks to watch, resembling a flock of sparrows chirping on sunny spring days perching on treetops.

For a working person returning home, the most troublesome part was passing through the village entrance, where idle elderly people could recount ancestors eight generations back.

Crucially, some liked spinning rumors, last year Jiang Yuan saw in his group chat classmates complaining about his sister, a decent girl studying for a doctorate, not having time to return home, while village rumors claimed she gambled and was sentenced.

There was another unlucky worker fired, then delivering food, turned into rumors of doing questionable jobs, evolving rapidly within days, scaring his mom to call, asking if he had enough money, if not, to speak up instead of doing foolish things.

Hence during this trip back while driving, Jiang Yuan raised the windows looking straight ahead, pretending to see nothing and driving smoothly home, still unavoidably recognized and uncertain what exaggerated tales would float around after lunch.

"Hey! Jiang Yuan returned driving a Benz?!" At the house entrance, before even getting out of the car, his neighbor aunt’s familiar loud voice exclaimed, munching on seeds with gleaming eyes, jogging over to inspect the car logo and license plate, gossiping: "You’ve made it big, can you find your brother an easy high-paying job too? This license plate is impressive; must have spent tens of thousands to buy it?"

License plate?

Jiang Yuan hadn’t paid much attention; hearing her say so, he glanced casually, indeed it seemed like something one wouldn’t easily win in a typical lottery.
