Chapter 420: Surprise of Lost and Found
He had a gut feeling that he had said something wrong, but since things had come to this point, Rogge had no choice but to bite the bullet and say it.
"That's right, Mr. William, you are deliberately making things difficult for me!"
"No one would agree with the two points you just mentioned."
Rogge was more inclined to believe that before he came, this man named Lin Siqiao had already raised the price for the other party.
Otherwise, Mr. William wouldn't be so difficult to communicate with.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene instantly dropped to freezing point, and Mrs. William's face also turned ugly.
"Manager Roger, this was something we had agreed on before. It would be fine if you didn't fulfill it, but now you are blaming me! I want to ask you, who is making things difficult for whom?"
“I…I…”
Roger pulled off his bow tie in annoyance. He didn't understand why things had suddenly developed to this point.
It was at this moment that he suddenly looked at Lin Siqiao who had been silent, but he did not expect to be caught red-handed by the other party.
"What does it mean that Manager Roger keeps glancing at me? Do you think I am interfering?"
Lin Siqiao asked him calmly. Roger's thoughts were exposed in public, so he was too lazy to pretend anymore.
"Ms. Lin, do you dare to say that you didn't come here for the island today?"
"Yes, I came here just for the island."
Lin Siqiao raised his eyebrows and asked, "The signed contract was cancelled for no reason. Shouldn't I come here to ask for an explanation?"
Without waiting for his answer, Lin Siqiao continued, "Manager Roger, you came at the right time. I want to ask, do you have to compensate me for the penalty for breach of contract in this contract?"
When these words were spoken, not only Roger was stunned, but William and his wife were also stunned.
Didn’t they just hand over the penalty for breach of contract to Miss Lin personally? Why does she...why does she want it again?
But before Mr. William could open his mouth, Roger quickly cleared himself of the responsibility.
"Ms. Lin, what you said is ridiculous. We didn't sign the contract. Why do you want us to pay the penalty?"
Lin Siqiao glanced at him with a half-smile, "The contract was indeed not signed with you, but you are the beneficiary. According to international practice, the penalty should be paid by your company."
"After all, if it weren't for you, I think the island's ownership would have been transferred to my name by now, so how could there be all these things later?"
When it comes to the topic of money, Roger becomes silent as if he has taken a mute drug.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lin Siqiao was too lazy to bother with him anymore.
She walked straight up to Mr. and Mrs. William and said sincerely.
"Mr. William, I still say what I said just now. I really like this island, and I haven't given up the idea of buying it until now."
"As for the question Mr. Roger just mentioned, the details of the previous contract have already made my attitude clear."
"In addition, I solemnly promise to you two that no matter how Laniai Island is developed in the future, the existing ecological environment will be maintained, because our original intention is the same."
Lin Siqiao wanted to say something else, but Mrs. William took her hand and patted it gently.
After looking at her husband, she said, "Ms. Lin, you don't have to say anything. Just treat the previous incident as a small episode. If you don't mind, we can go and handle the transfer procedures now."
Lin Siqiao smiled. To her, this was a surprise of regaining something that she had lost. How could she mind?
The one who minded was Roger.
"Mr. William, you...you can't do this. We clearly agreed on this before."
"We can discuss the two conditions you just mentioned."
"How about this, you give me another day, no no no, just half a day, tomorrow morning..."
"No need, Manager Roger, you should go to Washington tomorrow morning."
William opened the door and said, "I'm sorry, we have other things to do. We can't entertain you today. Please go slowly."
"Mr. William, please listen to my explanation..."
Mr. William didn't want to listen, nor did he give the other party a chance to persuade him. After getting the relevant documents, he followed Lin Siqiao to the city government trading hall.
The formalities were completed quickly, but William and his wife refused to accept the penalty of several thousand dollars.
"Ms. Lin, this matter is also our fault. You deserve this penalty. Please accept it."
Mrs. William is now worried about something else.
"Ms. Lin, Rogge was still cursing when he left just now. You must be careful when you travel these days."
Lin Siqiao thanked him and said, "Okay, I understand."
Seeing that she knew what was going on, William and his wife didn't say anything more.
Before leaving, the couple smiled and said, "We will clean up the house as soon as possible. You can come and take possession of the house next week at the latest."
"If you are free these days, you are welcome to visit our home anytime."
Lin Siqiao wanted to, but she would be leaving Hawaii in a few days.
Taking advantage of these two days of free time, Lin Siqiao had to hurry up and arrange the rest of her matters. After all, even she herself didn't know when she would come to Hawaii next time.
After saying goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. William, Lin Siqiao went back and invited Butler Bill over.
Now that the island has been bought, she would feel uneasy if there was no professional to help take care of it.
So the first arrangement Lin Siqiao made was to sign a ten-year employment contract with Butler Bill.
During her absence, the three islands were handed over to Butler Bill for management.
In addition, Lin Siqiao also greeted Uncle Qiu, and he would take time out every year to come and help her inspect a few times.
When Butler Bill saw the salary on the contract, he was shocked. It was too much!
He was also a little confused. There was nothing on these three islands at the moment, so what on earth was he supposed to take care of?
At this moment, Butler Bill suddenly remembered something. Lin Siqiao had asked him to find an expert in agricultural planting.
Bill immediately had a guess in his mind, "Miss Siqiao, you want to plant something on the island, right?"
"Yes, that's right."
Lin Siqiao smiled and nodded. Looking for experts in agricultural planting was just a cover.
Coming from later generations, she naturally knew that due to Hawaii's dry climate and low rainfall, there were very few crops suitable for growing.
And pineapple is the best choice, no doubt about it.
As for the bird droppings on the island, they are natural fertilizer for growing pineapples.
Of course, Lin Siqiao didn't expect to make any money from growing pineapples.
The reason for doing this is that Lin Siqiao knows that now is not the best time to develop the island.
In addition, the country's land tax will be reformed in a few years. At that time, agricultural land will not only be exempt from tax, but will also receive a considerable subsidy.
Just from these three islands, Lin Siqiao can make a lot of money every year. Why not?
