Chapter 225: Where Dreams Set Sail
The next day, I still habitually got up early, washed up and walked along the Xitang River, but today I was not able to meet the woman in red on the riverbank, thinking that she should have left Xitang after understanding something.
And me? Maybe I'll stay in Xitang for a long time, but one day I'm going to leave, because my roots aren't here.
At about 9 o'clock, I returned to the inn, but I didn't find the innkeeper, there happened to be a guest to housing, so I helped him to receive it, but the guest heard that he wanted 150 yuan for the accommodation fee, and did not counter-offer, turned around and left.
I was a little depressed, and I really didn't understand why he was so adamant about the price of 150 yuan and refused to compromise.
After a few moments, the innkeeper returned to the inn with a blackboard in his hand, on which was written an advertisement for transfers.
Surprised, I asked, "Boss, do you really want to transfer this inn?" β
"Hmm."
"This inn is not completely hopeless, you can adjust the price of accommodation appropriately according to the off-peak season of tourism, and then redecorate, business is still likely to improve."
He shook his head and said, "I didn't open an inn to find a job to make a living here. β
"And what are you for?"
He looked into the distance, his expression was a little gloomy, and it took a long time before he lit a cigarette and said, "I have been waiting in Xitang for a woman who has disappeared...... It's been 5 years, and she shouldn't be coming back, so I shouldn't stay here either, I should live a normal life. β
I looked at him with a shocked face, I don't know what kind of strength can support a person to wait in Xitang for 5 years, these 5 years may be far more difficult than the years I waited for Jian Wei, at least I still know that Jian Wei is in the United States.
But five years later, he finally used up the last trace of strength and chose to give up waiting.
I was curious to see what was going on behind the wait, so I asked again, "Can you tell me about your story?" β
He shook his head: "Stories are just stories, especially stories that have come to an end, and there is nothing to say." β
The resoluteness in his words made me have to choose to respect him again, looked at the blackboard in his hand for a while, and asked, "How much money do you plan to transfer this inn?" β
"50,000, plus the van outside that is used to pick up and drop off passengers."
"You're a bit of a loser at this price!" I reminded him that after all, in addition to the van, the decoration and electrical equipment in the inn also cost him a lot of money.
But he didn't care too much and asked me, "Are you interested in taking over?" β
I was a little moved, but once I accepted it, I would be trapped in Xitang and probably not be able to leave for several years.
I weighed it up and said to him, "I'm a little interested, but I need time to think about it." β
He nodded and said nothing more.
β¦β¦
Back in his room, the boy had already gotten up and was still playing his online game.
I smiled at him and asked, "Why did you get up so early today?" β
"Didn't you say you were going to take me to dinner, I'll get up early to prepare, prepare!"
I stared at him for a long time, but I didn't find what he had prepared, it was still a tracksuit, sweatpants, and a bird's nest on his head that hadn't been washed for a few days.
I sat back on my bed, smoked a cigarette, and was bored, so I said to the boy, "Do you know that this inn where we live is going to be transferred?" β
"Ahh β¦β¦ So where will we live in the future, I've paid a month's rent! β
"The boss will definitely make arrangements before the transfer, so don't worry about it."
The boy didn't worry about it anymore, nodded, and focused all his attention on the online game he was playing.
I picked up a slipper from the ground and threw it at him, and suddenly regained his attention: "Brother Yang, what's wrong with you?" β
"What would you think if I bought this inn?"
"True or false?"
"I don't have a job right now, so it's nice to open an inn!"
The boy instantly climaxed at me and said, "Open, why don't you open it, if there is a shortage of manpower, I can help you work!" β
"Are you sure you're not on a whim?"
The boy said to me seriously: "Brother Yang, it's really not a whim...... You said that after graduation, the part-time job is boring, it is better to stay in this picturesque place in Xitang and see the beauties every day! β
"If you have this mentality, you don't have to think about working for me!"
"So what kind of mentality should I have?"
"If I really decide to take over this inn, it will be operated regularly in the future, and in a few years, there will be our inns in scenic spots across the country, which will be my goal, you say, you treat my grand cause with a playful mentality, can I be happy?"
The boy looked at me with his mouth wide open, and said for a while: "Brother Yang, are you sure you are not joking with me?" β¦β¦ A nationwide chain inn, it's like a dream just to think about it! β
"The realization of dreams often starts from an inconspicuous corner."
"But there are hundreds of thousands of inns in the country, and there are not a few that can be made into chains, which is too difficult, right?"
I smiled and said, "Compared to this, I still think that your dream of breaking the virgin body is a little more difficult to achieve!" β
The boy looked at me with a look of despair...... After a while, he skipped the topic of virginity and asked, "Then do you have the money to buy this inn?" β
"No, but you can find a way!"
"Why don't we partner up...... If one day it really becomes a national chain, what a strategic investor I will become! β
"Partnership! Where do you get the money to invest? β
"I can sell my game account...... It's worth at least 20,000 yuan! β
I looked at him suspiciously.
He said to me again: "Brother Yang, God is fair to people, and if he has made me a virgin for so long, he will definitely give me other talents...... I'm an absolute game master, and I majored in game development in college! β
I sighed and said, "You can play a game for 20,000 yuan, what's wrong with this society?" β
The boy smiled proudly, and said to me again: "Brother Yang, let's open an inn in Xitang together!" β
With one last doubt, I asked, "Don't your parents interfere with you?" β
"No, anyway, Xitang is not too far from our home, and I just graduated from college, they will not have too high requirements for me, besides, opening an inn is also a kind of entrepreneurship, we Zhejiang people are still very keen on entrepreneurship!"
I nodded, and once again measured in my mind...... Since I have no reason to go back to Suzhou, why not choose Xitang for the time being?
And I have been confused for a long time, and I really need a career of my own, even if it starts from a small fight.
After confirming this idea, I finally said to the boy who was full of expectation, "Okay, let the dream take root and blossom here!" β
The boy applauded excitedly, as if he had done an earth-shattering cause.
I smiled at him and said, "Alright, go take a shower, clean yourself up, and introduce you to my friends later." β
The boy nodded, picked up his change of clothes and slipped into the bathroom.
