"Yeah, I know you guys had a pretty unpleasant time last night. I... I don't really know how to say it, but I just feel that in Dali, we should all be like family. It's really hurtful to have conflicts over money... Michael, I know this isn't your fault, it's just that Tie Nan was too willful!"
“I didn’t take it to heart. Can you get in touch with him now?... I just called him several times, but he didn’t answer any of them.”
“I was right next to him when you called him, otherwise I wouldn’t have rushed over to find you… Is there something you need to talk to him about?”
I replied with utmost seriousness, “He definitely won’t listen to me now, so I want you to persuade him… Don’t touch the seaside inns in Majiuyi. I just asked Sun Jiwei, and he said that the higher-ups are currently studying policies to classify buildings that are too close to the Erhai Lake as illegal buildings. This policy will definitely be implemented, but it’s still uncertain whether it will be within 100 meters or 200 meters.”
Peach's expression changed, and she quickly asked, "Is this news reliable?"
“Sun Jiwei’s information is always quite accurate… After all, when formulating these policies, we definitely need to consult their Environmental Protection Bureau.”
Peach's initial agitation had turned into nervousness...
I asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"Tie Nan... Tie Nan has already signed a contract with the innkeeper and paid half of the money!"
I was getting a little angry, and my tone became harsher: "How can he be so impatient?... He just told me about this yesterday, and he hasn't even understood the situation yet, and he's already signed the contract today. Isn't he just stupid?!"
Peach remained silent in anxiety for a long while before finally speaking to me, "Last night, the innkeeper called him again... saying that if he sincerely wanted it, he could transfer it to him for 480,000... You know the market price for seaside inns, this transfer fee is already very attractive, and it even includes a year's rent... He couldn't resist the temptation, and this morning he met with the innkeeper in the ancient city to sign the transfer contract. We just went to the bank to withdraw the money." As she spoke, Peach turned to look at the seaside inn that they were about to take over, and then comforted herself, "Judging from this distance, it should be more than 200 meters away... If it can't be demolished, Tie Nan's choice might not necessarily be wrong."
Taozi is already a woman who has had a very difficult life, and I couldn't bear to say anything that would make her feel more insecure at this time. Besides, what's done is done, so I smiled and said, "I estimate it should be more than 200 meters away. If we can't demolish this inn, that would be a really great thing. Look... if all these obstacles in front are removed, even the first floor of this inn will become a sea view room. The prospects will be absolutely fantastic... much better than the inn we built before!"
