Chapter 35

"Eight thousand is a bit too high, boss. Can you give me a better price? I really like it, but I really want to buy it!" Hao Meng asked with a smile.

"Seven thousand eight!"

Hao Meng shook his head with a smile, "Boss, you're being a bit too stingy, aren't you? Only reducing it by two hundred? Let me put it this way, this bicycle of yours, if you leave it here, it might not sell for a while, right? Spending several thousand dollars on a used bicycle isn't something everyone can afford. I'll give you eight hundred, take it or leave it!"

Pfft!

The onlookers couldn't help but laugh. The boss had asked for eight thousand, and this young man was bold enough to counter with eight hundred, cutting the price by ten times in one go. That was quite ruthless.

"Not selling!" The boss waved his hand, not in a good mood, "I didn't even buy it for that much!"

"One thousand five?" Hao Meng tried again, adding a bit more.

The boss was straightforward, "This bike is a good one, I won't lie to you. The price is seven thousand five. If you want to buy it, pay up and take it now. If not, don't waste my time. I won't sell it for less than seven thousand five!"

Hao Meng wandered around for a bit and came back. Seven thousand five, that's fine. After a bit of refurbishment, selling it for over a hundred thousand shouldn't be a problem. It's not easy to get a reminder from the 'Recycling Station.'

"Is this a worn-out mountain bike? Would you like to repair it?"

Finding a place where no one was around, Hao Meng put the mountain bike he bought for over seven thousand into the 'Recycling Station' on his fingertip. It wouldn't cost many gold coins, so he chose to repair it.

The mountain bike was black, very light, weighing less than ten pounds. After it was repaired, Hao Meng took it out and rode it. It felt different, the speed was fast. With Hao Meng's current physical condition, he could easily reach fifty to sixty miles per hour, the wind whistling past his ears as he rode back.

If his sister-in-law Shufen at home knew he spent seven or eight thousand dollars on a used bicycle, would she scold him for being wasteful?

In Hao Meng's heart, he had already started to see Wei Shufen as the woman of the house!

"Hehe, Brother Hao Meng, this bike is so cool! Did you just buy it?" Chang Mei from the neighboring clothing store saw Hao Meng ride the mountain bike back and asked with a giggle, leaning against the door.

"Yeah, it's pretty good, right?" Hao Meng got off the bike. This young woman had a flirtatious look in her eyes, and she was quite attractive, but to be honest, Hao Meng didn't really like her.

"Let me try it!" Chang Mei actually came down from the steps.

Hao Meng couldn't refuse, so he smiled and handed her the mountain bike, warning her, "Be careful, don't ride too fast, and if you fall or get hurt, I won't be responsible!"

"Go away, I'm not as clumsy as you say!" Chang Mei got on the bike and rode around. When she came back, she said with a smile, "It's so light, riding it is really fun... Oh!"

She probably didn't expect the brakes to be so effective. She pulled the brake slightly, and the bike stopped immediately. She didn't react in time and was about to fall.

Hao Meng, who was not far away, ran over in three steps and caught her before she fell. In the heat of the moment, he just wanted to catch her to prevent her from falling, and didn't think much about it. As a result, he ended up grabbing her chest. It felt soft, and it was quite large. With the thin summer clothes, the sensation was very strong!

"I told you to be careful!" After Chang Mei was steady on her feet, Hao Meng let go of her. He was worried about others seeing in the street, as it might look bad.

Chang Mei's face turned red, but she didn't say anything, "These brakes are really effective!" She got off the mountain bike and handed it back to Hao Meng, then went back into the store with a red face!

Hao Meng wouldn't take this small incident to heart. To him, it was just a minor episode that he would forget about.

"We have an electric bike at home, why did you buy a bicycle?" Wei Shufen asked with a smile as she watched Hao Meng push the bicycle into the house. She had seen him come back earlier but didn't go out because there were customers in the store.

"Hehe, just for a change!" Hao Meng smiled and leaned the bicycle against the wall.

"Bending over and leaning forward, it looks quite awkward. Do city people really like riding such bicycles?" Wei Shufen asked, puzzled. She knew nothing about mountain bikes!

Hao Meng explained, "This is a sports bike, a bit different from regular bikes. It has gears."

"It has gears?" Wei Shufen went over to take a look, curious, and said, "If you put it in the store, will you sell it if someone wants to buy it?"

Hao Meng said, "As long as it's in the store and the price is reasonable, I'll sell it, including the sofa, TV, and laptop we're using now!"

"Sure!" Hao Meng nodded with a smile.

"How much will you sell it for?" Wei Shufen asked about the price to have a clear idea, as she was the one managing the store every day.

Hao Meng thought for a moment and said, "If someone really wants to buy it, I'll price it at 120,000."

"How much?" Wei Shufen couldn't help but widen her eyes, thinking she had misheard.

"120,000!"

"Hao Meng, are you kidding? A bicycle, you, you're selling it for 120,000?" Wei Shufen said, half laughing and half crying, still thinking Hao Meng was joking.

"Yes, that's the price. Those who like it won't care about the price, and those who don't like it won't buy it. It's worth it. Hehe, I'll buy a stand and hang it on the wall to save space." Hao Meng smiled and asked, "Where's Xiaoguo?"

"She's taking a shower upstairs... Is this bicycle really worth over 100,000?"

Hao Meng nodded with a smile and greeted Wei Shufen before going upstairs to take a shower. It was hot, and he was sweating after going out. In the past, he didn't have the conditions, but now that he does, who wouldn't want to be clean and tidy?

When Hao Meng came downstairs with Xiaoguo in his arms, Wei Shufen had already cleaned the mountain bike thoroughly, even the tires were spotless.

"This gear bike is worth 120,000?" Chang Mei from the neighboring clothing store was there, staring at Hao Meng and asking. Hao Meng nodded with a smile, and Chang Mei couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, the money I make from my clothing store in a year can't even buy your bicycle! Where did you get it from?"

"A friend asked me to sell it for him!" Hao Meng didn't explain further, just gave a vague answer.

Chang Mei was a shrewd woman, calculating the value of the goods in Hao Meng's store in her mind. The 750,000 ultra-large LCD TV, hundreds of phones, computers, refrigerators, and air conditioners, and now a bicycle worth over 100,000. She hadn't realized it before, but now she was shocked. The value of the goods in this small store alone could probably buy the entire two-story building!

She secretly glanced at Hao Meng sitting on the sofa. Wei Shufen had told her that this young man was only twenty-one but already had a net worth of over a million. At this moment, she even regretted introducing Wei Shufen to Hao Meng. She wasn't bad-looking herself, and if it weren't for Wei Shufen, who knows... But there's no such thing as a regret pill in the world!
