Chen Jin nodded with deep feeling, then asked, "You hoarded these shops to prepare for such a day, right?"
When Chen Jin asked that question, I couldn't help but think of my other brother, Tie Nan... I don't know how he's doing now that he's serving his sentence... I don't dare to face him, but it's not my fault. If he had been willing to give me a little trust instead of always being wary of me, things would definitely not have turned out this way.
I suddenly felt exhausted by the word "human nature"...
Why do we live such calculating lives every day?
Exhausted, I didn't answer Chen Jin directly. I just said, "We can't let those landlords who have trusted us suffer losses... Once the value of the shops here reaches a high point, we should remind them to sell their shops as soon as possible... If any are unwilling to sell, we should try our best to find them long-term tenants, at least to ensure they don't lose money on rent. If all else fails, our studio will cover the rent payments for them."
"Hmm... I really didn't expect it to be so sudden!"
"Aren't many things in this world just things that happen suddenly?"
"That's true... Who can predict the future? We can only prepare in advance!"
...
After that, the real estate agents began to fuel the hype, exaggerating the commercial value of "Jiulongju" and using the opening of a large KTV as a selling point and case study to lure investors. They claimed that "Jiulongju" would become another "Renmin Road" in Dali. In addition, "Jiulongju" showed great investment potential in the early stages, attracting many investors to take the bait... especially the Wenzhou people who had previously tasted success on "Renmin Road", who bought shops in large quantities in Jiulongju.
A small number of owners, persuaded by us, sold their shops after the value reached a temporary peak. Of course, most owners felt there was still room for appreciation and held onto their shops tightly, refusing to sell. This behavior created the illusion of scarcity, and the value of the shops reached another peak.
At this peak, we sold all the shops we owned for between 2.8 million and 3.5 million, which was less than we expected, but we still made a lot of money.
Yes, our enthusiasm and sincerity ultimately failed to bring prosperity to "Jiulongju," but we did get a pile of money in return.

Meanwhile, Lao Mi finally completed his more than three-month treatment, which was very successful. Throughout this process, Lu Jia, except for taking a leave of absence from her studies in France, stayed by his side without ever leaving him, and her contribution was truly remarkable.
As for me, it's time to face up to my feelings for Lu Jia; also, it's time to give Yang Sisi an answer regarding her investment.
That afternoon, I sat in a coffee shop, gazing at the falling leaves outside the window, lost in thought... It felt like only a moment had passed, and it had gone from early summer to late autumn...
When I saw a woman with some beauty sitting on a bench under a tree, I realized that Ye Zhi had been gone from my world for more than half a year... Time has washed away my memories and made me believe that she is really gone.
I lit a cigarette and pulled the postcard related to "Rickwell" from my handbag... In the past few months, I hadn't received any similar hints. And this postcard became an "unsolved mystery"... When I stopped wanting to investigate it, it seemed to fade away, quietly sitting in my handbag for a very long time.
...
Lu Jia finally arrived. She was wearing makeup and a beautiful outfit... As I looked at her, I used my handbag to weigh down the postcard.
This time, I took the initiative to ask her out... I want to chat with more like-minded people about "My Tenant Miss." Follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat to read the novel, discuss life, and find kindred spirits~
