Chapter 419 The Cooked Duck Flies Away
The visitor was none other than Manager Roger, who was in charge of the island development.
Two hours ago, he received a notification that Lin Siqiao had landed on the island.
Although William and his wife had already agreed in the morning, Roger couldn't feel at ease until the transfer procedures for the island were completed.
After all, Lin Siqiao is not an ordinary rich person.
As early as a few days ago when Lin Siqiao came into contact with William and his wife, Roger began to arrange people to investigate her background.
But time is limited and not much information can be found.
Fortunately, someone recognized the butler Bill who was following her.
It's no secret in Hawaii that Butler Bill started working for the royal family of Dhaka half a year ago.
Rogge followed this line of inquiry and was surprised to find that this Lin Siqiao had a close relationship with the little princess of Di country.
If this were an ordinary person, it would be fine.
But these days, how could anyone who has connections with the royal family of Di be a small character?
Lin Siqiao and the others didn't dare to move, but asking Rogge to raise the price would hurt him, so he wanted to wait and see for two more days.
After all, 1.1 million US dollars is not a small amount of money. Anyone who comes here has to bargain or something. The whole process will take at least ten days or half a month.
Unexpectedly, the next day Rogge received news that the other party had already signed the contract. He was completely unable to sit still.
There was no way to offend Lin Siqiao and the others, and all Rogge could do was play the emotional card in front of William and his wife. With the intervention of government leaders, the matter was finally resolved satisfactorily.
In the morning, Roger wanted to strike while the iron was hot and complete the contract and transfer procedures at the same time, but William and his wife were stubborn.
It is already very immoral to unilaterally breach the contract, and we have to give them some time to deal with it.
Rogge had no choice but to agree to give the other party three days.
Of course, Rogge was also a little cautious when he left, and he made up an excuse to send William and his wife away.
He originally thought that Lin Siqiao had been waiting in the trading hall for several hours, and might not come again in a fit of anger.
I never thought that she was also a stubborn person!
As soon as he heard that Lin Siqiao had come to him, Rogge immediately urged his subordinates to draft a contract.
Ten thousand US dollars is already the highest price they can offer. If the other party is wealthy and insists on using money, who knows whether William and his wife will be shaken?
Thinking of this, Rogge didn't bother to exchange pleasantries. He sat down and directly took out the contract and stated his purpose straight away.
Seeing this scene, William and his wife were obviously stunned, and then their faces became embarrassed.
After all, they had just apologized to Lin Siqiao for their behavior.
But then Rogge came with the contract, which was somewhat of a slap in their face.
It was their stunned expression that further confirmed Rogge's guess.
Recalling the scene of these people having a 'happy conversation' when he came in just now, he quickly explained with a smile.
"I'm sorry, Mr. William. I received a notice from my superiors that I will be going to Washington for a week-long business trip tomorrow and may not be able to come back in three days."
"I have been following up on this acquisition case, and the people below me don't understand the situation."
"This is the contract we have already drafted. Why don't you take a look at it first? If there are any questions, we can modify it in time."
As he spoke, Rogge spread out the contract in front of the two of them and even prepared pens for them.
Roger has come to the house many times, but this is the first time he has been so humble, so Mr. William can't blame him too much.
After sighing, he picked up the contract and began to look through it.
The details of the contract were discussed in advance, and generally there would be no problems. Even Lin Siqiao was ready for Mr. William to sign.
Unexpectedly, after William read the contract several times, he frowned and said.
"Manager Roger, are there two missing clauses in this contract?"
"Two missing?"
Roger was a little puzzled, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"
He had read the details of the contract several times on the way here, and if there was anything missing, he would have discovered it long ago.
William didn't argue with him, but just said lightly.
"Manager Roger, when you first came here, I told you that I don't care how you develop the island, but the church on the south shore and the tropical rainforest to the northwest must be preserved intact."
"We were willing to sit down and talk only because you agreed to this."
After hearing what Mr. William said, Roger suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard him mention this before.
But the problem is that the price they negotiated at that time was always US$800,000.
The transaction price is now 300,000 more. If they are not allowed to move anything on the island, how can they make money in the future?
Rogge couldn't understand it. It was just a dilapidated church. What was there to save?
Not to mention the tropical rainforest on the island, which occupies more than half of the island's area.
Various migratory birds also live there, and it costs a lot of money every year just to clean up the bird droppings.
But he couldn't say these words directly to these two stubborn people.
Because the couple are well-known radical environmentalists.
Rogge could only play the sympathy card, and he talked for a full half hour, but his mouth was almost dry.
But William and his wife showed no intention of giving in.
"Manager Roger, please don't say anything. This is not a question of whether or not we are considerate of you. This is our principle and position, and it is also the premise of this transaction."
"If you can't accept this, then I'd like to ask you to go to another island."
Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly away, Roger was angry and anxious, and he accidentally said what was in his heart.
"Mr. William, are you trying to embarrass me on purpose?"
"...I'm making things difficult for you?"
After hearing this, William was extremely angry.
In order to support the local tourism development, he did not hesitate to destroy his own reputation and paid a large sum of liquidated damages to the other party out of his own pocket.
Didn't expect that in the end, he would be pointed at and accused of making things difficult for him?
