Chapter 332 Buying a Car
"Yeah." Li Xiu nodded when he heard the words, and said to Duan Yun with a smile: "What? Do you want to sit down?"

"Can you?" Duan Yun asked.

"Of course no problem!" Li Xiu frowned, and then shouted to a driver next to him cleaning the car: "Old Meng, come here!"

"What's the matter with Director Li?" the driver surnamed Meng asked after walking over.

"Drive this car and take Xiao Duan for a walk outside." Li Xiu ordered.

"Okay." The driver smiled when he heard the words, quickly got the car keys from the trolley, opened the door and sat in, and signaled Duan Yun to get in the car.

After Duan Yun sat down on the co-pilot's seat, the driver immediately started the car, turned the steering wheel a few times, and quickly drove out of the carport.

As if to show off his skills, the driver surnamed Meng drove very fast. After leaving the factory gate, he started to gallop around the road in the factory area.

Sitting in the co-pilot's seat, Duan Yun felt very comfortable. Although the interior decoration of this car is simple and the shock absorption is almost poor, there is an indescribable pleasure.

There is a saying in later generations: the car is a man's little lover.

Duan Yun also owned a QQ car worth tens of thousands of yuan in his previous life. Although the grade was not high, Duan Yun liked this car very much. Qian has equipped this QQ car with a lot of "black technology", and it feels extraordinarily cool when driving on the road.

Sitting on this 212 Jeep, Duan Yun quickly fell in love with this car. Since its birth, 212 has been a genuine soft-top convertible off-road vehicle. It is a dual-purpose design that can be closed or open. In his opinion, there is probably no more beautiful and stylish car than this kind of car these days.

"Master, can you stop for a while?" Duan Yun suddenly said to the driver while driving halfway.

"Okay." The driver heard the words and parked the car on the side of the road.

"Smoking." Duan Yun took out a cigarette, handed one to the master, lit it for him and said with a smile: "Master, can you let me drive it for a while..."

"Huh?" The driver was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This is not a motorcycle, can you drive it?"

"I have driven the trucks in our factory before, no problem." Duan Yun said.

"But……"

"The road is so wide that you can't even see a person. Don't worry, I really know how to drive. At worst, you can sit next to me and step on the brakes for me." Duan Yun tried his best to persuade.

"Okay." The driver hesitated for a moment, and after seeing that there were no pedestrians on the road ahead, he said to Duan Yun, "Slow down..."

"Don't worry." Duan Yun chuckled, then changed seats with the driver and sat in the driver's seat.

With both hands on the steering wheel, Duan Yun was excited. After starting the car, he continued to drive forward.

Seeing that Duan Yun was very proficient in the operation, the old driver next to him suddenly looked relieved, and he was also secretly surprised. After all, there are very few people who can drive these days. Since there are no special driving schools, the drivers in many places are actually military car squads who have changed their jobs. Yes, he really couldn't figure out where Duan Yun learned his driving skills from.

At this time, Duan Yun was completely immersed in the thrill of driving this 212 jeep.

There is a big difference between this car and the QQ that Duan Yun drove in his previous life. There are three control handles in the cab, and the transmission only has three forward gears, and there is no synchronizer, no clutch assist, and it is usually 4X2 rear drive. On muddy roads, the transfer case can be hung in the cab to become a 4X4 drive.

But after only driving for a while, he was fully able to adapt to driving this kind of car.

What makes Duan Yun interesting is its braking system, which is a pure hydraulic brake without vacuum booster and vacuum booster. The front wheel is a one-way booster shoe, and the rear wheel is a two-way automatic booster shoe.

In fact, when the BJ212 stepped on the brakes back then, it would make a sharp whistling sound, and you could tell that it was a BJ Jeep coming from a long distance.

After Duan Yun drove around the factory area, he returned to the small car class in front of the office building.

Seeing that it was Duan Yun who pushed the door from the driver's seat, Li Xiu and Chief Engineer Wang were stunned.

"This car is not bad." Duan Yun said excitedly after getting off the car.

"Xiao Duan, can you still drive?" Li Xiu asked Duan Yun in surprise.

"I have a cousin who lives far away. He is in the army transport company. I went to see him in their company when I was in school. I must have learned to drive for half a month." Duan Yun prevaricated.

"Ah, so it's like that." Li Xiu nodded with a smile.

"Director Li, let's discuss something." Duan Yun walked to Li Xiu's side and said, "Can you sell this car to me?"

"Sell it to you?" Li Xiu and Mr. Wang were startled when they heard the words, and then burst out laughing.

"Let's talk about the price. Anyway, the car of your factory is sold to the public, and it is the same to sell to me." Duan Yun said seriously.

"You really want to buy it?" Hearing this, Li Xiu and Mr. Wang were surprised.

Li Xiu and Mr. Wang obviously did not believe that Duan Yun would actually buy this 212 Jeep.

These days, basically no one buys a private car. The Daxing Automobile Factory has been established for more than 20 years, and its products have always been supplied to government units in various places. It has never sold a private car.

"I said, I like this car, can Director Li give me a price?" Duan Yun said.

"This..." Li Xiu's expression turned pale when he heard this.

The quoted price of BJ212 Jeep in recent years is 3000 yuan. If the purchase tax is added, the bicycle price is around [-] yuan. The purchase price varies from place to place, but basically the price fluctuates around [-] yuan.

The price of 3 yuan is quite astonishing. Even if it is the 80-yuan household envied by everyone in the 30s, it takes three 212-yuan households to work together to buy a car. In today’s era when the average wage of workers is [-] yuan, if you want to buy a car It takes at least seven or eight years to drive a [-] Jeep without eating or drinking, so buying a car privately is completely out of reach for people in this day and age.

Although the two 212 jeeps of the small car class were assembled by their own factory with the planned engine materials, the cost price is more than 2 yuan. This price is also a bit ridiculous for private individuals.

But since Duan Yun asked the price so seriously, Li Xiu had to give him an answer.

"As I said just now, these two 212 jeeps are assembled by our factory, and the cost is about 76..." Li Xiu pondered for a while, and then said: "According to the depreciation regulations for product equipment stipulated by the superior, this The car was produced in 8000 and has a service life of ten years. It has been seven years now. The depreciation is about 1000% a year, and it costs about 7000 yuan. If you really want it, I have the right to give you another [-] discount RMB, at least not less than [-] RMB..."

"Okay, I'll take 7000 yuan for this car!" Duan Yun said bluntly.
