A finesse crack method

Would you please be kind enough to help me correct the essay? Thanks a lot.

The next year, I went to Japan on business. A Taiwanese friend working in Tokyo received me and he drove me to go around. I asked him, “Isn’t it hard to find a parking space in such a populous and crowded city as Tokyo, a metropolis?”

"Why so serious? The city government requires drivers to provide proof of private parking space before buying a vehicle. The measure would relieve congestion on streets and offer more space for pedestrians. Therefore, here in Tokyo there are not that extraordinary number of cars as you imagine," he answered.

“Wow! You have a private parking space? It must be awfully expensive, mustn’t it?” I asked.

“You are such a dork. How can you be so rigid as Japanese? Rent a parking space first, then get the car registered, and next terminate the tenancy of parking space. Wasn’t the problem solved? It was not insurmountable,” he replied.

Several days later, it turned to a Japanese friend hosting to me. The treatment was reduced to two legs and Tokyo Metro. He politely said, “Here in Tokyo, it’s much easier to keep a car than to buy a parking space. I’m sorry to have you travel by packing into the subway car.”

I imparted him a finesse crack method that my Taiwanese friend revealed to me. Unexpectedly, he didn’t have the ecstasy of enlightenment, but just indifferently said, “If I really want to exploit loopholes in the law, there will be full of loopholes. For example, my mother lives in the country. As long as I had reported to the local authorities for change of domicile to my mother’s residence, it would be fine for me to buy a car. However, I am actually living in Tokyo. If I bought a car without a parking space, how would my neighbors rate me? If I drove a car to work, how should I face my colleagues and boss? A decent, upright, honest person will never do so.”
