Seeing that there were no vehicles or pedestrians downstairs of the hotel, the man spoke in person: "It turns out to be Mr. Xiang. I'm really sorry. I'm on my way to Tianfeng Hotel now, but there's a traffic jam on the road. You guys go to the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel and sit for a while. I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, the man gently put down the phone and sat down on the office chair.
On the sofa next to him, a man who was also about fifty years old, with a crew cut and a lean build, smiled and said, "Is the person from Qinglongwan coming?"
"Yeah." The owner of the Tianfeng Hotel sat up straight and nodded gently, "But the person who called me just now was not Xiang He, but another person's voice. The other party said his name was Xiang Yang."
"Xiang Yang?" The thin man frowned. "This is not easy to deal with. We went all the way to find Xiang He, but in the end we couldn't avoid Xiang Yang."
"It's expected. After all, buying and selling land is not a trivial matter. It's normal for Xiang He to discuss it with others. I told you not to do it. Look, not only did you not get things done, but you offended Xiang Yang instead." The owner of Tianfeng Hotel said helplessly.
"So what if I've offended him? So what if I haven't? The price of land in Qinglongwan is beyond our and your ability to afford with our current assets. We had no choice but to take a different approach and give Xiang He a try. What we were betting on was that Xiang He would directly help us buy land in Qinglongwan. Now we've lost the bet, but we haven't paid any money," the thin man said with a smile.
"What should we do now? Go talk to Xiang Yang?" asked the owner of Tianfeng Hotel.
"What else is there to talk about?" The thin man shook his head and said, "They must be here to accuse us. Should we go and have a fight with them? Or, can you afford to buy a piece of land from Qinglongwan at a normal price?"
Those who work in real estate usually acquire a piece of land first and then start selling the properties.
Only then can they use the money from selling the property to build houses.
If they don't have land, they cannot sell the houses, otherwise it would be considered illegal fundraising.
When the real estate industry is doing well, every real estate developer can rely on this and hold a handful of cash in his hand.
However, when the real estate industry is in recession, as long as a piece of land is put on the market and the houses are not sold, their capital chain will be broken.
The owner of the Tianfeng Hotel failed to sell two consecutive real estate projects, resulting in a broken capital chain.
He had originally stopped touching real estate.
As a result, by chance, he heard that a backward fishing village was planned to be turned into a tourist area. With his sharp eyes, he immediately saw the business opportunity.
But business opportunities require costs, and the owner of Tianfeng Hotel now has no capital left.
The other side.
Li Chao and Xiang Yang took the elevator to the top floor of Tianfeng Hotel.
There is a buffet restaurant on the top floor, but for some reason it is not open for business now. There is a door on each side of the restaurant. The left door has a sign saying "Kitchen Area, No Entry for Unauthorized Persons" on it, and the right door has a sign saying "Office Area, No Entry for Non-Staff".
Apart from that, there was only one waitress sitting at the bar in such a large buffet restaurant. She looked up at Xiang Yang and Li Chao, then lowered her head again and started to busy herself with her own business.
"This is not the Abyss Beach Club. We will meet the boss later. No matter what the other party is like, you should be polite when speaking before a falling out." Li Chao found a seat and sat down, then began to instruct Xiang Yang on some details.
Xiang Yang also listened carefully.
"Also, even if we have a falling out, don't say anything harsh. This is a business district, not a battlefield. There's no point in saying harsh words. If there's anything, we can deal with it in private. We still have to be friendly on the surface." He continued immediately.
Xiang Yang continued listening.
Li Chao talked nonstop for about 10 to 20 minutes until his mouth was dry. He looked around for a drink of water, but found that there was no water at all.
Li Chao immediately shouted to the bar: "Waiter, make me two cups of black tea."
But the waiter said without even looking up: "No."
Li Chao immediately got angry and slammed the table and yelled, "Damn it, even if we are beggars, there should be someone to chase us away, right?"
Xiang Yang, who was deep in thought, was suddenly stunned.
Can you please be more polite
Want to be harmonious
Is this angry person in front of me really Li Chao
Xiang Yang immediately went to pull Li Chao, "Brother Chao, why are you angry?"
"Don't worry about me." Li Chao exploded. "I tried my best. The owner of this damn Tianfeng Hotel is a moron. Nothing he did or arranged was reasonable. I rushed here from Qinglongwan, and he was stuck in traffic. When I arrived at the location, he made me wait in a buffet restaurant. The most important thing is that he didn't even give me a glass of water."
Xiang Yang was stunned.
I think you should have been more polite in what you said before.
Be peaceful and harmonious.
People like us who are strangers to each other, you shouldn't be angry. You're not saying this to me, you're saying it to yourself, right
Xiang Yang blinked, not knowing how to persuade Li Chao.
"Xiang Yang, let's go. If the owner of Tianfeng Hotel wants to see us next time, let him come to us himself." Li Chao said angrily, pulling Xiang Yang.
On the other side, in the office.
The thin man heard Li Chao's roar and said with a smile: "Look, the other party is getting impatient and is ready to leave on his own."
But the owner of the Tianfeng Hotel did not say anything. He tilted his ear and listened carefully, "No, this is not Xiang Yang's voice. This voice sounds familiar to me."
"That means Xiang Yang came with Xiang He, or he came with the village chief named Zuo. Don't pay attention to them. Xiang Yang is obviously a smart man. Now that Xiang Yang knows about this, we don't have any chance. Let them yell. If they have the ability, they can smash the Tianfeng Hotel." The thin man said disdainfully.
The owner of Tianfeng Hotel frowned and was about to nod.
"not good."
Suddenly, the owner of the Tianfeng Hotel stood up from his chair and said, "I know who this voice belongs to. It's Li Chao, the owner of the Crown Hotel."
"What?"
The thin man was stunned for a moment, "Li Chao from the Crown Hotel?"
If it were Xiang Yang, they would indeed not be afraid.
Having offended Xiang Yang, the only pity is that I won't be able to make money from Qinglongwan.
Anyway, there is no way they can lose money in Qinglongwan.
But it’s different if you offend Li Chao.
As the top hotel in Longcheng, the Crown Hotel is not located in the same area as them, but with Li Chao's connections, he can definitely target them in all aspects. For example, in terms of food supply, if Li Chao makes a statement, the share of many rare ingredients will be reduced or even stopped.
The owner of Tianfeng Hotel didn’t care about the Tianfeng Hotel before, but things are different now. This Tianfeng Hotel can be said to be the last pillar of his wealth.
