``` "Ugh, what a waste, there's a speed limit on the road, this car is so stifled!" Only the driver could understand the pain of driving a car that could reach speeds of 267 mph on city roads limited to 25 mph. Fang Jueyu couldn't wait to find a professional racetrack to unleash the full speed of this car and experience the thrill of that extreme acceleration. But even at this leisurely pace, this sports car was enough to elicit countless screams. "Honey, what kind of car is that? It's so beautiful!" "Oh my God! Apollo Sun God!" Sometimes sports cars attract men even more than women, "Is this a new model? I've never seen it before?" "Honey, is this car expensive?" "Expensive! It's more than just expensive, even if you have money, you can't buy it!" The man looked enviously at the departing dark purple sports car, "Even the worst configuration is close to 20 million RMB, and you have to order and queue for it. I heard there aren't many of these cars in all of Huaxia!" "Twenty million?" The woman exclaimed. It would take them a hundred years of work without food and drink to gather that amount. "This car should be customized or limited edition. It's not surprising if the price exceeds 10 million US Dollars. I never imagined I'd see this car here, it's like a dream!" ... Fang Jueyu drove several laps around the surrounding streets before his excitement gradually calmed down and he returned to reality. The surrounding vehicles kept a distance of more than 10 meters from him, even at a red light, where the car behind was at least tens of meters away. If this car accidentally got scratched, the repair costs might force them to sell their home and car to pay for it, right? Half an hour later, Fang Jueyu reluctantly returned to his villa, gently caressing the steering wheel as if he were touching his wife. He even had the strange urge to spend the night in the car. "So, Mr. Fang, are you satisfied with this car?" Zhou Ruixiang asked. "Satisfied! Extremely satisfied!" Although Fang Jueyu didn't know much about cars, for him, fast enough, stylish enough, and thrilling enough were the three essential points, and this car fully demonstrated all three. "Your satisfaction is the greatest affirmation for us!" Zhou Ruixiang said with a smile. "By the way, will this car be sold to the public in the future?" Fang Jueyu asked. "Yes, but we will only sell the standard version, without using those expensive special metals in the materials of the car. The power system will also be slightly reduced because this car was specially modified for you, but the appearance will remain almost the same. We plan to price it at 5.2 million US Dollars, and it will only be sold to certain special customers!" "From the appearance, my car doesn't seem to have any particularly distinctive features!" Fang Jueyu was slightly disappointed. "Hehehe, Mr. Fang, our designers have already considered this. Press the button with our car logo on your left hand!" "Hmm? This one?" Fang Jueyu found the button and pressed it. Then, the car suddenly emitted a barely noticeable mechanical sound, and a stereoscopic purple gemstone sculpture, akin to the small golden ornament on a Rolls-Royce, popped up from the front of the car. It was an eagle and griffin with outstretched claws, exactly the one from the Apollo Supercar's emblem! "The eagle and griffin of the standard version are made of gold, but yours is crafted from a high-purity purple crystal. That's the biggest difference!" Zhou Ruixiang proudly stated. This gemstone was acquired by Fang Jueyu's ancestor from a collector, undoubtedly a rare treasure, and it was only after the company connected with the family that helped Fang Jueyu keep the purple gemstone that it was cut and mounted on the car. In terms of value, this gemstone might be worth as much as ten cars like this one! "Wow, with such a touch, I don't even dare to drive this car out!" Fang Jueyu was moved by this generous gesture. If the car got damaged, he might not feel too bad because it could be rebuilt. But if this gemstone got lost, there might not be another like it in the world, not even with money. "Rest assured, Mr. Fang, the inlay slot has been modified. If someone tries to forcefully open it to steal the gemstone, they will be hit with a strong electric current, and the vehicle will automatically alarm, so you can be at ease!" "That's good to hear!" Only then did Fang Jueyu breathe a sigh of relief. "Please pass a message for me, give the employees working overtime at the German factory three days off and reward them with a month's salary!" Fang Jueyu was in a good mood. Searᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "On behalf of those employees, I thank Mr. Fang for his generosity!" "Oh, and Ms. Zhuang, give Manager Zhou an additional end-of-year bonus of 1 million this year!" "Understood, young master!" "Thank you, Mr. Fang!" Zhou Ruixiang beamed with joy, almost bursting into a smile. Although he was the Huaxia distributor of the supercar, there were very few people in Huaxia with the purchasing power and qualification, so he only received a base salary each year. This 1 million reward was practically a windfall! Fang Jueyu drove the car into his underground garage. The Maserati he gave to Zhuang Ying was naturally parked in the garage of her mansion. This villa had twenty parking spaces, and with only one car in it now, it looked somewhat empty. "I should check what other good cars are out there to fill this garage!" Fang Jueyu was somewhat dissatisfied. He couldn't possibly drive this car everywhere; sometimes it might be better to drive something more discreet. "Young master, Mr. Heram is still waiting in the villa. Do you want to try on the clothes now?" Zhuang Ying asked. "How could I forget about that?" Fang Jueyu slapped his forehead, feeling slightly embarrassed for leaving someone waiting for an hour. "By the way, Ms. Zhuang, please arrange dinner, following English standards and style. I'll invite Mr. Heram to dinner tonight!" "Okay, leave it to me!" Zhuang Ying took on the task and left. Fang Jueyu returned to the villa, where Heram was sitting on the sofa, sipping coffee, but there wasn't a hint of impatience on his face. As a royal designer, he could wait, but the other party needed to qualify, and Fang Jueyu was indeed one of the few qualified. "Mr. Heram, I'm sorry, I got a bit excited after receiving my new car and forgot about you," Fang Jueyu said apologetically. "Oh, don't worry, dear Mr. Fang, your coffee is quite good. Actually, letting me wait a little longer is fine, as long as I have this coffee to enjoy!" Heram said humorously. "Hahaha, Mr. Heram, you're too funny. I've already asked my chef to prepare dinner. Please stay and eat here, and I'll have a driver take you back afterward." "Mr. Fang, you're too courteous. As you Huaxians would say, I'll follow your lead," Heram happily accepted the invitation. "Shall we try on your clothes first?" "Sure!" Fang Jueyu took the extremely elaborately packaged suit and put it on directly. Fang Jueyu was originally somewhat thin, but now he was a perfect clothes model. The saying 'The clothes make the man' seemed to be vividly demonstrated on him. After putting on the suit, he transformed from an ordinary student into a gentleman full of grace. "Mr. Fang, this suit is made of cashmere wool, silk, and gemstone. I incorporated Huaxian elements into our English style, using the best materials, and it also has automatic temperature regulation, making it suitable for any season!" "Amazing!" Fang Jueyu looked at himself in the mirror, very satisfied with this suit, especially the subtle golden dragon totem on the buttons, which was grand yet not tacky. With the embellishment of gemstones, it would absolutely shine anywhere, without looking like the extravagance of a nouveau riche. This level of design skill was truly worthy of the title of the chief designer for English royalty. "Mr. Heram, this suit isn't cheap, is it?" Fang Jueyu remembered that many tailored brand clothes often cost tens of thousands, so this suit must be around a hundred thousand, right? "Yes, Mr. Fang, the decorations on the clothes are G color, VS2 quality gemstones, with more than two hundred pieces totaling about 150 carats, so the cost of this suit is 500,000 British Pounds!" "Five hundred thousand British Pounds?" Fang Jueyu's face darkened, was he wearing a house on his body? ```
