Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

The next morning, Chen Yiran was groggily pulled out of bed by Xu Li and they went to the restaurant for breakfast.

Chen Yiran drank a lot of coffee and ate two bagels.

Xu Li teased from the side, "Ever since last time at Buffalo, I've felt that you have unique tastes. How can you eat such a terrible bagel?"

Chen Yiran remained unmoved; the wheat aroma of the original bagel was something that ordinary people couldn't comprehend.

The two checked out of their room and walked towards the Jin Feng Grand Hotel, arriving in less than ten minutes.

Old Chen was already waiting at the table by the door, with two people sitting next to him.

One was short and chubby, in his thirties, wearing a gray sports jacket; he looked quite honest. The other was tall and thin, about the same age, and wearing a baseball cap.

When Old Chen saw Chen Yiran, he stood up and greeted her, "You're here! Let me introduce you. This is Qiang, and this is Ming. They're old acquaintances, so don't worry about them."

Ah Qiang smiled and nodded, and Ah Ming also greeted him.

Old Chen took a sip of tea: "Let's get down to business. Have you finalized the price?"

Chen Yiran recounted the configuration and price from yesterday's email.

He then offered his idea: "My friend has a BOA account, so we can go directly there to withdraw the money. You can bring someone to the counter to open a cashier's check using both of their names."

Old Chen nodded and said, "Okay, here's the procedure. We'll go to the bank first, you withdraw the money, and A-Qiang and A-Ming will each issue a bank draft for you to take. Then we'll go to the dealer together."

Ah Qiang and Ah Ming went in to discuss and sign the contract. You guys wait outside. Once everything is settled, they'll call you in to confirm and pay. When you pick up the car, you can drive it yourself. You're driving directly to the port, right?

"Yes, we'll have to attend classes later, so it's best to get it done today."

Old Chen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then, we'll go in three cars. Qiang and Ming can leave first after they buy the cars, but they have to leave their driver's licenses behind. Be careful when you two drive without your licenses. Then, the three of us will go to the port, and once the cars have entered the freight company, you can give me their licenses and bring them back to me."

Xu Li thought about it and, finding no problems, nodded in agreement.

The five people set off in three cars. Chen Yiran drove with Xu Li, Lao Chen drove himself, and A-Qiang and A-Ming followed in another car.

First, they went to BOA. Xu Li went in, withdrew cash, and came out. Old Chen took A-Qiang and A-Ming in and each opened a bank draft in their own name, both based on the after-tax price given by the dealer yesterday.

After leaving the bank, the five of them continued driving north on I-80, and arrived in Parsippany, a county in New Jersey, in an hour.

The Porsche dealership, Paul Miller Porsche, is located in a commercial area. It has a large storefront and looks quite impressive.

Old Chen parked the car on the side of the road and went inside with A-Qiang and A-Ming. Following Chen Yiran's instructions, he told the receptionist that they had already arranged to pick up the car via email.

Chen Yiran and Xu Li stayed in the car and waited.

About fifteen minutes later, Old Chen came out and waved to them.

The two got out of the car and entered the exhibition hall.

The salesman was a white man in his thirties with blond hair and a very standard smile. Ah-Qiang and Ah-Ming were already seated at the negotiation table, on which lay two car purchase contracts.

The salesperson pointed to the numbers on the contract and explained the configuration and total price, which matched the information confirmed in yesterday's email.

Chen Yiran glanced at it and said there were no problems. A-Qiang and A-Ming signed their respective contracts, and then the salesperson took the contracts to the cashier.

Chen Yiran and Xu Li followed and handed the two bank drafts to the cashier.

In fact, in 2010, for customers who bought cars in cash, dealers didn't ask any questions and didn't need to sign any agreements prohibiting resale or export.

That was something only loan customers had to sign; cash customers weren't bothered about what they bought it for. It wasn't until two years later, when the proliferation of parallel imports had a significant impact on Chinese 4S dealerships, that regulations were tightened.

Two brand-new Cayennes were parked in the delivery area at the back of the showroom, one dark gray and one white.

I checked everything: paint, tires, interior, mileage—no problems. The odometer readings were all in single digits; it was shipped directly from the factory.

The salesperson handed over two copies each of the keys, vehicle registration, and ownership documents, and then gave a bunch of standard warranty and warranty-related instructions.

After receiving the keys, as planned, Chen Yiran got into the dark gray car, and Xu Li got into the white car.

Chen Yiran counted out 1,200 yuan in cash from his wallet, gave 600 yuan to A-Qiang and 600 yuan to A-Ming, and also took their original driver's licenses.

"Give the driver's license to Old Chen when it arrives at the port."

Ah Qiang laughed and said, "It's okay, it's okay, you're reliable. We'll be going now."

Then Chen Yiran and Xu Li carefully drove their new car towards Port Elizabeth. Old Chen followed behind in his own car.

Follow the navigation, take I-78 and turn onto the New Jersey Turnpike, and you'll arrive in about forty minutes.

Global Auto Shipping's office is easy to find; it's right next to the dock, in a two-story building, with several SUVs waiting to be loaded onto ships parked in front.

Old Chen was clearly very familiar with the place, and he led the two inside.

This was also an all-Chinese company. The clerk took the documents Chen Yiran handed over and started printing out the forms.

"Two Cayennes are being exported to Tianjin Port, right? The sea freight for each vehicle is 1600 RMB, THC 280, document fee 150 RMB, port security 55 RMB, export customs declaration 120 RMB, and fuel surcharge 110 RMB. Do you want to buy insurance?"

Chen Yiran nodded: "Buy it, just in case."

"Okay, let me see. Your price is 215 for insurance, and 2525 per vehicle, is that alright? Then, it can be cleared for customs on Tuesday, and we can give you the bill of lading on Wednesday, the day the ship departs."

"No problem at all. When we board the ship and checkpoint is closed, could you please take a video to confirm?"

"No problem, we often take photos for our clients. Just give me your email address and we'll take the photos and send them to you."

Xu Li swiped his card to pay, and after the two came out, Chen Yiran handed over the two driver's licenses and 800 yuan in cash to Lao Chen.

"Thanks, Uncle Chen."

"You're welcome, you're welcome. Let's go, I'll take you back to the dealer."

Chen Yiran's car was still parked in the same parking lot as the Porsche, so the two of them rode back in Lao Chen's car.

The three said goodbye in the parking lot in front of the Porsche, and Chen Yiran and Xu Li got back into their car.

Just as Chen Yiran was about to drive towards Delaware, Xu Li came up with another unreliable idea: "Going back to class now, I can't possibly attend any classes. We're about to start making money. How about I skip two days of class and wait until the car is ready to board the ship?"

Chen Yiran said helplessly, "What are you looking at? Are you a security guard at the port? They'll handle things for you later, they're all professionals. You should go back to class, and they'll fire you later."

"So, this means we'll end up in Delaware?"

"Otherwise what?"

Xu Li thought for a moment and said, "I feel like I've been working hard outside for many years and seen the world, and now I'm going back to the village to farm."

Chen Yiran laughed and said, "So this counts as having seen the world?"

"Well, what else can we do? This Chinatown is looking for a middleman, and then they're going to that scarecrow you mentioned. It's kind of like something out of an old movie. It also feels a bit like starting a business in Shenzhen a decade or so ago, okay?"

Chen Yiran knew this feeling; he felt the same excitement when he made his first car and earned 3 dollars in his previous life.

"Alright, alright, come and look at the car. I'm exhausted after driving all day."

"Okay, boss, you can rest, I'll start the car."
