When they reached the door.
Shen Chong, who was already waiting, politely and respectfully greeted the three of them.
"Good morning, Young Master, Madam, and Little Young Master!"
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng quickly nodded and replied with a smile, "Good morning, Uncle Shen!"
Looking at the red flag car brand with a Jingdu license plate parked at the door.
Jiang Jianmin frowned slightly, finally unable to hold back his words.
"Your grandfather is something else, letting you drive a car with that kind of license plate."
Standing to the side, Li Yan heard her husband's words and gave him a slight glance.
She then retorted, "That's enough. Didn't you use to ride in cars with that kind of plate before? Why are you criticizing your son now?"
Seeing Li Yan defending Jiang Cheng, Jiang Jianmin looked at her with dissatisfaction.
"I only rode in one occasionally. How can that compare to him driving it around every day? It's not the same thing at all!"
Shen Chong, standing silently to the side, couldn't help but chuckle.
Hearing Jiang Jianmin's complaints, Jiang Cheng turned his gaze toward the other two red flag cars that Shen Chong had just driven over.
"Dad, you say the car Grandfather gave me is too high-profile? But what's the difference between Second Great-Grandfather's two cars and my two? Even the numbers are the same, aren't they both 00001?"
Hearing this, Jiang Jianmin's face darkened slightly. He gave Jiang Cheng a sour look and said irritably.
"The difference is huge! Take a good look at the letters on your license plate yourself!"
Seeing Jiang Cheng's look of confusion.
Shen Chong, seeing the situation, quickly stepped in to explain to Jiang Cheng.
"Little Young Master, your license plate number is not simple. It starts with Jing O."
Jiang Cheng still looked puzzled: "And then?"
After the three of them got into the car, Shen Chong drove personally.
After starting the car, he turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng.
With a serious expression, he continued to explain to Jiang Cheng, "Little Young Master, have you noticed that this car isn't subject to traffic restrictions in Modu?"
When Shen Chong said this, Jiang Cheng thought about it seriously.
Usually, when he drove himself, he drove supercars.
For the rolls-royce, red flag car, and maybach, Wang Sheng was the one driving.
Moreover, the three cars were driven in rotation, so he didn't know about such things.
After all, after becoming rich, he didn't even pay much attention to traffic lights.
But don't misunderstand; not paying attention didn't mean Jiang Cheng would run red lights.
He was a law-abiding citizen.
Shen Chong continued unhurriedly.
"The vehicle we are currently sitting in has a license plate starting with Hu A. Although this set of numbers is very special, theoretically, as long as you pay enough money, you can successfully purchase it."
After speaking, he paused for a moment, seemingly giving Jiang Cheng some time to digest the information.
Then he continued to elaborate.
"However, your car has a Jing O license plate. Although the uniqueness of the O-series plates began to be gradually phased out a few years ago, a small portion of special ones are still in use."
"To put it bluntly, as long as you are within the borders of Huaxia, that car of yours can pass through completely without restrictions. You don't even need to pay attention to traffic lights."
After hearing these words, Jiang Cheng, who was originally as calm as water.
His eyes slowly widened, revealing a hint of surprise that was hard to hide.
To be honest, he hadn't paid special attention to the license plate issue.
After all, in Jiang Cheng's understanding, although the 00001 plate looked more impressive than his 88888 plates.
In his eyes, anything that could be bought with money was the same.
But Shen Chong's words clearly meant that an O-series plate couldn't be bought with money.
"So, this license plate can't be bought with money?"
Shen Chong nodded: "When Huaxia was founded, for the purpose of official business, license plates starting with this letter were established. Any plate with this letter could ignore any traffic issues. At that time, our country's economy was particularly poor, and cars were not seen everywhere. Most people were still riding 28-inch bicycles, and those in better conditions rode motorcycles."
"However, with the increase in vehicles, there are more and more administrative offices everywhere. For traffic reasons, the special rights of O-series plates began to be abolished a few years ago. But this abolition only applies to those ordinary number plates. Yours is still a symbol."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng's eyes widened.
He actually didn't know about such a heaven-defying thing?
No wonder when Jiang Cheng ordered Wang Sheng to drive this car to the nightclub.
Wang Sheng had such a shocked expression on his face.
Before, Jiang Cheng thought Wang Sheng just felt it was too high-profile and ostentatious.
But at this moment, he finally realized that he had been underestimating this car all along.
Seeing Jiang Cheng's expression, Jiang Jianmin, sitting in the back seat, turned his gaze toward Jiang Cheng.
He then spoke to remind him.
"You probably didn't notice the expressions of those people yesterday when they saw your license plate number."
Jiang Cheng paused for a moment, carefully recalling the scene at that time.
At that time, his entire attention seemed to be firmly attracted by Ergou's impressive chest.
So much so that he didn't get distracted to notice the actions of Du Wei and the others.
At this time, Jiang Jianmin continued.
"Those old foxes' attitudes were respectful before, but they were in a wait-and-see mode. It wasn't until they saw this license plate that they immediately exchanged numbers with me."
"You mean, they made some kind of decision after seeing this license plate?"
Seeing his son finally understand the key point, a look of relief and satisfaction appeared on Jiang Jianmin's face.
He said slowly: "If your license plate was changed to Jing A or even Jing B, none of them would be surprised. After all, that kind of license plate represents money."
At this point, Jiang Jianmin left him in suspense for a bit, seemingly wanting to whet Jiang Cheng's appetite.
"Just like your Second Great-Grandfather's car, it also has a Hu plate. Not only can your Second Master drive this car, but others can also drive it as long as they have money. But if the Hu A plate were changed to Hu O, the situation would be completely different. In Modu, only Du Wei can drive this car."
After listening, Jiang Cheng's mouth opened slightly, revealing a look of surprise once again.
"So, the car and the license plate Grandfather gave me represent such a high status in Jingdu?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng's reaction, Shen Chong couldn't help but smile slightly and then said slowly.
"That's right, Little Young Master. If this were a few years ago, you wouldn't be able to drive this car no matter what. A car starting with this letter, 00001, represents the top leader of a place. Of course, 2 would naturally represent the second-ranked, and so on. This is the standard configuration for every place."
"Although these privileges have been abolished now, ordinary people still cannot own this car. Anyone within the system will know roughly what level your identity is at just by looking at it."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng sighed helplessly: "Who knew a license plate had so much significance? I suddenly feel like Great-Grandfather is setting me up?"
Thinking about it carefully, Jiang Cheng did feel like he had walked into a huge trap.
He was driving this car around Modu every day; wasn't he just a walking spotlight?
