Chapter 108: He has money
Soon after, the woman led them inside, where she started showing them a lot of cars, from small and cheap ones, which she did as a matter of protocol, to supercars and big SUVs.
There were all kinds of cars, and the same was true for the people crossing from one side to the other.
Some were just looking, others were buying, and the richest seemed to be getting into the auctions.
However, Klaus didn't like the cars at the auctions, so although he had money to buy some, he didn't go there.
'I've never owned a supercar and always wanted one. Should I buy one?' he thought, looking at the beautiful cars present.
This world was a novel created by one of his students. Naturally, cars were influenced by the design on earth, so it was relatively easy for him to tell which ones were the most expensive based on the design and the brand that created them.
"These supercars are the most expensive in our branch—the most expensive you'll find in the whole country unless you decide to go to the main branch in the Capital. But even here, there are a few more expensive than in the Capital, for example, those two over there." The lady directing them pointed to an area where there were two cars, one red and one blue. Many people surrounded these two cars.
"Those two are the most expensive cars in the country that are still free, but if you look, those people around them are wanting to buy them, they are millionaire people, it is not a good idea to seek to compete with them." She smiled.
Klaus nodded. 'Inspired by the Ferrari and Lamborghini design. They're good designs and seem to have good specs.' He thought.
The cost was posted on screens above the cars, as they displayed the specs and so on.
'Two and three million Extreme Coin.' He thought.
Considering that 1 Carter Coin equals 5 Extreme Coins, those cars cost around 400,000 and 600,000 Carter Coins, which was 6 months' salary for the current Klaus.
It was seeing this that he realized he had a really high salary.
'Luxury cars; the most expensive cars in the country, but I can buy them quickly, just getting that salary. A Sorcerer's salary is really good.' He smiled.
Taking into account the payments sent to him from his salary, from the missions with Nithim Twice, what he has done in Etherleaf, and also the payments for promotions, where they use his image for different things without him noticing, right now, he has enough money to buy one of them.
He has 480,000 Carter Coins, which is quite a large amount, as it is 2.4 million Extreme Coins. But if he bought one of those two, he would run out of money for what he needed, so that idea didn't cross his mind.
He just nodded. He wasn't really interested in the design either, as another car had caught his eye since he had seen it.
It was a special, out-of-this-world supercar that blended a bit with the designs of the Lamborghinis and Mercedes Benzes of the Earth. The difference was that it didn't have two doors like the designs he remembered; it had four, and unlike what he thought, it didn't look bad.
In fact, it looked much better than the one he remembered.
It was a good, elegant car that maintained the essence of a supercar. That and a real supercar caught his attention, but for now, he didn't need that much speed; he needed more elegance because his next moves demanded it.
The price for that car was 800,000 Extreme Coin, so if he bought it, he would have 1.6 million.
'The price is good and fits well with what I need.' He looked at the girl and pointed to the car.
"Is that one available?"
She followed his gaze to the car, and her eyes sparkled. She nodded quickly. "Of course, Lord Klaus. Are you interested in that one? May I show it to you?"
Carion moved closer as he saw him point to that one and nodded approvingly. "Good choice, my friend. The elegance of that car will further emphasize your elegance, so I think it's a good idea. But isn't it too expensive? It's 800K. Do you have that much money already?"
Klaus smiled. "Things have been going well lately, and the payments are good. I can buy it, so I'd like to do the procedures at once."
"Hahaha, fine then."
After that, the lady showed it to them, and subsequently, they started the procedures, or so they hoped.
As the lady ran to the office to get the necessary documents and the one who would be in charge of signing them (a Manager), she encountered a big problem.
"Sir, come quickly. I have managed to sell one of our star cars. Lord Klaus came personally to buy it and wants to take it away immediately." As she said this, she showed the car's papers, which told the manager the car she was talking about.
She didn't notice that anyone else was in the office, and if there was, there would be no problem since, being such a high-end sale, the manager was naturally supposed to treat him like a VIP client.
Even so, when she put the car papers on the table, the manager and the other two people to the side were surprised.
One of those people, a well-dressed man of about 25, grabbed them tightly.
"Why the hell is the car I'm interested in still for sale? I already asked you to put it aside!" He immediately shouted.
The lady felt lost for a moment and looked at the manager, who quickly got up and apologized to the young man.
"I'm sorry, Young Sir. I forgot to mark it as set aside in the company's system. Since you were undecided between this and the other supercar, I marked the other one as set aside because it is more sought after. Have you already decided to buy this one?" He even bowed a little. Because the young man in front of him was the son of powerful people in the city, it was better not to bother him.
He just scoffed and put the papers on the table. "I still can't decide what to buy, but that doesn't mean I can't decide on this one. My father and I are coming tomorrow to process the payment for the car I want, but it will be until tomorrow that I make up my mind, not today."
His words put the manager on edge. Canceling the sale of a nearly 1 million Extreme Coin car just for a chance to be obtained was a ridiculous question, but he couldn't object.
He had to nod. "I'll go talk to the Lord then. You can wait for me here." He said, but when he saw Miss Saleswoman's face twist a little, he felt confused.
"What's the matter? Since you managed to sell it yourself, tomorrow I'll be fair to you and make you be the saleswoman for Young Lord's car. Don't be sorry."
Still, the Miss shook her head. "This... This will be difficult, sir."
"What do you mean?"
"The one who wants the car is a Red Tower sorcerer. Besides, he's not just any one." She replied softly.
The manager was surprised by her answer; even the Young Lord there had to frown.
"A Red Tower Sorcerer? This..." The manager looked at the Young Lord as if to say: "Make up your mind for the other one. This will be difficult if you decide to make things difficult."
The Young Lord knew it. Red Tower was to be respected in this city; even his family could not do anything. And the Sorcerers of that organization have privileges in the city.
'But so do I.' He thought and stood up. Not wanting to be rude either, he nodded to the manager.
"Take me to see him. I'll talk to him personally." He replied.
Just what the manager wouldn't want to happen, but in the end, he could only nod and walk out next to him.
