"No way?" Xu Xiangqian showed an incredulous expression. "You wouldn't even want a big hotel for free?"

"I originally thought it was impossible, but it actually happened." The ship charter king seemed a little helpless.

Li Xu thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Mr. Bao, do you have any requests for the hotel?"

The charter king understood what he meant and said directly, "I hope the hotel will be named after my father. Is this request not too much?"

"Not too much." Xu Xiangqian answered first.

Li Xu and Li Ping looked at each other and both understood.

As mainlanders, they know the problem all too well.

To put it bluntly, the businessman identity of the ship charter king made some people feel hesitant, so they did not dare to accept the 10 million US dollars.

After a moment of silence, Li Xu expressed his thoughts.

After hearing this, Xu Xiangqian's mouth dropped open. "In Guangdong, donated buildings can be named after themselves or their family members. Why not here?"

Li Xu said softly, "Because this is the capital."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell into silence.

After a long while, Xu Xiangqian finally spoke up to break the atmosphere. "Mr. Bao, what are you going to do? Will the hotel still donate?"

"If you promise to name it after my father, I will donate it."

The implication is obvious: if you don't agree, you won't donate.

Although Li Xu didn't know if this incident had ever happened in history, he knew that the general trend of the environment had not changed. So he pondered and said, "I think it won't be long before the higher-ups agree."

The charter boat king smiled and said, "I hope so."

In fact, he had long guessed that the problem lay with his own request, and he had already prepared himself mentally.

For him, it is worth being happy if he can donate the restaurant, and there is no disappointment if he cannot donate it.

The silence just now was not because I was in a bad mood after hearing the reason, but because I suddenly understood why my cousin was always evasive when discussing this matter with me in recent days.

Hearing what he said, Li Xu and the other two stopped talking about this topic and said, "Mr. Bao, we plan to buy a few houses here. If you finish your business and our house is not ready yet, can you wait for us for a few days?"

The boat charterer suddenly became interested. Instead of answering, he asked, "What kind of house are you planning to buy?"

"Siheyuan."

The boat charterer pondered for a moment, "Are you buying it to live in, or as an investment?"

"I'm not sure yet, I'll tell you later."

Hearing this, the charter king didn't ask any more questions and said directly, "Is half a month enough?"

The three of them were very happy and nodded repeatedly to thank him.

After they left the room, the second son-in-law of the charter boat king said, "Dad, why don't we buy a few courtyard houses too."

The boat charterer frowned, "Are you so sure we're allowed to buy a house here?"

Seeing his second son-in-law's expression change, he continued, "How many times have I told you not to rush in blindly when you see the benefits? You should think more. You haven't remembered these words at all."

The only thing he was dissatisfied with about his son-in-law was that his IQ dropped as soon as he saw benefits.

Li Xu and the other two all said they wanted to buy a house. He knew that was because even if Xu Xiangqian was not qualified to buy it, he could still register the house under the name of the Li brothers.

In the eyes of the ship charter king, they were relatives, so Xu Xiangqian could naturally do this.

However, I only have a cooperative relationship with the Li brothers, so it is not appropriate to do so.

As for my cousin, he is a government official, so it would be even more inappropriate to register the house under his or his family's name.

Therefore, the ship charter king had already made the decision that if foreigners were not eligible to buy houses here, he would not buy them.

His second son-in-law bent his body slightly, showing a guilty expression, "Dad, I was wrong."

"Knowing you're wrong is useless. Correcting your mistakes is what's useful. Do you understand?"

"I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely change it."

The charter king stared at him for a while, then hummed softly.

...

Li Ping and the other two returned to their room and continued chatting. As they were chatting, Li Xu suddenly had an inspiration and a smile appeared on his face. "Old Xu, big brother, I have thought of a name for our hotel."

"What's the name?" they both asked in unison.

“Xiu Kang Hotel.”

Xu Xiangqian was stunned, but Li Ping's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted, "That's a good name, let's call it Xiukang Hotel."

"Second cousin, were you inspired by the ship charter king to come up with this name?" Xu Xiangqian had already figured out the meaning of the two words Xiu and Kang. Isn't it just taking one character from each of Sun Xiu's and Li Jiakang's names?

"Yeah." Li Xu responded happily.

Xu Xiangqian smacked his lips and jokingly said, "In that case, we should thank him. If it weren't for him, the hotel might have been built before you even thought of a name."

Hearing this, Li Ping burst into laughter. "You know what, it's really possible."

Li Xu's face turned dark.

Early in the morning.

Li Xu and the other two had just finished their meal and returned to the house when Chen Huaiyi came over.

Li Xu's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Xiao Chen, is there any news?"

"Well, there's a family in Dazhalan who wants to sell their house."

"Dashilan?" Li Xu was startled. "I remember the Tong Ren Tang we went to yesterday was also there, right?"

"Yes, this house is not far from Tong Ren Tang."

"That's quite a coincidence." Li Xu said with a smile, "Xiao Chen, how much does the house cost?"

"About three thousand five hundred."

"Okay, go wait in the car while we clean up."

After Chen Huaiyi left, Li Xu and the other two quickly tidied their clothes and took out another 10,000 yuan and stuffed it into their bags.
