Chapter 125 [Bonus ] 125 – Motorcycle Bought!
Unfortunately for me, Selena didn’t have any weddings to book for yesterday, which would have brought in a few thousand dollars more for one night, but she had already secured a wedding for me to sing at next week.
As my popularity grew, so did the price, which was great news.
When I looked at the MeTube report of how my channel had grown in the last month, I had a big smile on my face.

Adding the total I got from the songs on MeTube and Spokify with the vlogs, I got a huge total of $25,513!
I’ve never had so much money in my bank account before, especially when I added up how much I got from the concerts, the total on my bank account was now $36,900!
Which would theoretically be enough for me to buy the NSX I wanted, but I restrained myself from buying it, because out of that $36,900, $5,000 would be used to pay off debts, bringing it down to $31,900, plus $4,000 I would give to my dad to help pay the household bills for the month, bringing it down to $27,900, not to mention the car license, transfer fees, maintenance I would have to do on the car after I bought it, which could possibly be between $1,000 and $2,000.
Instead of choosing a more dilapidated car and having no money left in my account just to buy the car, I thought it would be better to buy the motorcycle first and have money left over so I could live well and buy the best NSX I could afford next month.
With the rest of the money this month, I planned to replace my cell phone, which was terrible, as well as use some of the money to do maintenance on the bike and have fun customizing some things on it so I could finally start my hobby of being a mechanic for my vehicles.
Whatever money was left over after that, I still didn’t have any plans for.
Maybe my main priority should be to update my wardrobe, buy some nice clothes and some elegant suits to wear to the shows, as this would attract more people to the shows and the videos, which would consequently make me even more money in the future.
But leaving that thought aside, we had finally arrived at the semi-new car shop.
Looking around, my eyes couldn’t help but glaze over.
Especially when I saw all the Camaros and Mustangs parked around with price tags on them.
But even though there were a few with prices within what I considered acceptable and I thought these cars were really nice, my goal today was still the motorcycle and my goal for the car was still the NSX.
I was more of a fan of Japanese cars, so the NSX, R34, Supra MK4 were still my favorites, even though I liked the American ones.
“Hey John!” A friendly voice came from a distance, causing me to look in that direction and see a man about my father’s age, wearing a white suit, waving at him.
“Hey Steve!” My dad waved back, smiling.
After shaking my father’s hand, Steve looked at me and commented as he held out his hand to me. “So this is the kid that’s looking for a bike today? You seem to have taken after your father’s taste in motorcycles, but the beauty certainly didn’t come from him!”
“I’m Noah.” I smiled as I shook his hand. “And yes, I’m looking for a motorcycle today.
“What kind of bike did you have in mind? A Harley? A regular bike? A motocross bike? Or a sports bike?” He asked as he started walking in a direction where there were bikes for sale.
“I’m looking for something sportier, do you happen to have a CBR1000R?” I asked with interest, causing him to raise an eyebrow. “Hmm, Honda CBR1000R… we don’t have that model, only the CBR1000RR… but the price difference between it and the 1000R is big… “When I got there, I saw the matte black bike with red details and my eyes lit up, it was exactly what I wanted and because it was a CBR1000RR instead of a 1000R, the bike was even bigger and more aggressive than I had imagined, which made it even more attractive to me.
When I looked at my father, I saw his eyes shining as brightly as mine.
Seeing the look on our faces, even without us answering, Steve already had a smile on his face. “How much is it?” I asked.
He reached over to the side of the bike and held up a sign with a price tag of $11,980.
“This bike has 11,400 miles on it, but the mechanics are in perfect condition. The price we offer to normal customers is $11,980, but since your father has been a good friend of mine for many years, I can make it for you for $11,480.” He said. “I’ll go in and get the keys so you can hear the engine of this little beauty.”
Hearing that, I was excited, but I remembered a skill I had that I hadn’t used in a long time.
[Negotiator Lv 5
Effect: Increases the chance of convincing the other party to accept your price by 5% during a negotiation. This skill improves your persuasion and negotiation techniques, making your proposals more attractive and convincing].
Hehe, this will be a good time to use this skill. I thought excitedly.
Although it was only an Lv 5 skill, and Steve probably had it above Lv 30, I was confident that I could get at least a few hundred dollars off.
When Steve returned with the key and started the bike, I heard the roar of the engine and knew that this was exactly what I wanted.
Then my battle with Steve began.
–
“Your boy’s got a sharp tongue, is he looking for a job?” Steve asked as he stood next to Jonathan while they both watched Noah ride the bike down the street to test it out.
“Haha, he’s already working, he earns more than me these days. This bike was bought with his work money.” Jonathan explained proudly as he looked at Noah on the bike.
He had to admit that his son looked pretty cool on that bike.
Because of his training, his muscles were already much more developed, so with him wearing a tighter black shirt, with a black helmet, with black gloves on a black bike like that, even Jonathan couldn’t deny that his son looked very attractive.
He’s going to a new school on Monday, just looking at him, you can imagine how the girls will react when they see him. Jonathan thought as he looked at him.
“He works and earns more than you?! What does this boy do?” Steve asked in surprise. He knew it wasn’t easy for a young man to get a job that would allow him to buy a $10,980 motorcycle so easily.
Smiling, Jonathan pulled out his cell phone and opened the video of him opening the Lila Brooks concert and singing with the audience.
“That’s his job.” He said as he handed the phone to Steve.
Seeing Noah performing in front of such a large audience and looking at the nearly 200,000 subscribers to Noah’s channel, Steve broke into a smile as he handed the phone back to Jonathan.
“You’re lucky John, your boy is talented, handsome, polite and has a sharp tongue, hahaha.” He laughed.
Jonathan also laughed when he saw Noah walking back to where they were after the bike ride.
“Like the bike, kid?” Steve asked smiling.
“Yeah! I want it!” Noah said as he slowly got off the bike and stroked the side of it.
This bike was nicer than the one he wanted, more powerful than he wanted, and he even got the helmet and gloves he wanted.
Looking at the black shirt squeezing his white arms and imagining how he looked on the bike, Noah began to think even more about getting the tattoos he wanted.
He’d had a few tattoos in his previous life, but they’d all been very ugly because he didn’t have the money to pay a more talented artist.
But now that he had a lot of money, and with the rock star image he was creating, the tattoos would not only not get in the way of his image, they would complement it!
Within minutes, the papers were signed and the money was wired.
From that point on, the bike was Noah’s.
“Are we going home?” He asked his father as he accelerated the bike, enjoying the roar of the engine.
“Yeah, just don’t go too fast because my Camry won’t be able to keep up with you…” Jonathan joked as he walked back to his car.
Noah nodded and followed Jonathan to his car so they could drive away together.
Even though he had a powerful motorcycle and was eager to ride it fast, Noah wanted to level up his skill first and then go fast on the bike because he had a big number on his status screen that showed he wasn’t good enough at it yet and he didn’t want to risk screwing it up.
But he was excited to see the reaction of the three who were home now.
