The taxi driver's face turned red and he quickly asked: "How about one thousand and five?"
Mike still wanted to speak, but Mai Chengxing reached out to interrupt him and said calmly: "Just two thousand, Mike, give me the money."
Mike subconsciously said: "Grandpa, he just said one thousand and fifty..."
Mai Chengxing said firmly: "Forgot what I told you? Two thousand, give me the money."
Mike suddenly became excited, nodded quickly, counted twenty hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and handed them over.
In fact, he was not stingy, nor could he afford two thousand yuan, but he couldn't accept the feeling that others were clearly taking advantage of him.
However, when he thought about his grandfather's words to stop him from arguing with others, he immediately came to his senses and then willingly paid.
The driver happily took the money, counted it carefully, and said hurriedly: "You two, please get in the car quickly!"
Mike helped Mai Chengxing sit in the car, then went around to the other side and sat in the car.
As the driver drove towards the exit of the station, he asked, "You two should be from abroad, right?"
Mike asked curiously: "How do you know?"
The driver smiled and said: "Who in China would go out with thousands of dollars in cash when they have nothing to do? We all pay electronically, so it's safe and easy."
Mike nodded and said: "It's true. Domestic electronic payment is indeed very good, and it is much more advanced than abroad."
The driver said proudly: "Of course, we are a cashless society! You see, after we implemented electronic payment, there are far fewer thieves than before."
After saying that, he asked: "Where are you two going to go as your first stop?"
Mike said: "Go to Jinling University of Finance and Economics."

Ye Chen has been thinking about ocean transportation from last night to now.
He also realized that this was an excellent development opportunity, but he had never thought about who should be in charge of it.
Ye Chen is self-aware. He has read very little and knows very little about international trade, import and export trade, and foreign exchange collection and settlement. If he was asked to manage this project by himself, he would have no way of starting.
Therefore, to enter this industry, the first task is to find a suitable person.
Xiao Churan didn't know what was on Ye Chen's mind. She came out after washing up and saw that Ye Chen had woken up and was still lying on the bed in a daze, so she couldn't help but ask: "Husband, what are you thinking about in a daze so early in the morning?"
Ye Chen came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm thinking about starting a business..."
"Start a business?" Xiao Churan asked in surprise: "You want to start a business?"
Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: "I have this idea, but I haven't found the entry point yet."
Xiao Churan said hurriedly: "Husband, I think you should stop thinking about starting a business."
Ye Chen asked curiously: "Why?"
Xiao Churan said seriously: "Our family is not short of money now. If you show Feng Shui to others, you will make a lot of money. If I complete the project of Dihao Group, our family will not be able to spend all the money.
Why do you still have to work so hard to start a business?”
Ye Chen said seriously: "But wife, aren't you working hard to start a business?"
Xiao Churan sat down next to Ye Chen, held his hand, and said seriously: "Husband, starting a business is really hard, and it's the kind of thing where there is no turning back, so I don't want you to be so hard."
As he spoke, Xiao Churan said with emotion: "In the past few years, you have not only had to take care of me, my family, and Aunt Li in the orphanage, but you have also been bossed around by my parents and looked down upon by my parents and grandma's family. It's been hard enough.
Okay, now that I can finally relax, why do I still want to start a business?"
