I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 165 The inn was demolished
Just when I wanted to say something about Ye Zhi’s post on Moments, I found that Yang Sisi also posted a post on Moments with a photo at almost the same time. In the photo, she was in a bar with the theme of motorcycles in the ancient city , and her Kawasaki Ninja is parked outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bar. She and this little Ninja appear in this photo from different angles, which is the embodiment of the photographer's creativity. I can't help but wonder who it is Helped her take this cool-looking photo?

I looked at Ye Zhi's photo again, and I felt that the two of them have completely different personalities. Ye Zhi is self-enclosed, while Yang Sisi tries her best to show herself, so she not only wears cool clothes Motorcycle clothes, and I also found a friend who knows photography to help me shoot.Of course, Yang Sisi's world is interesting, but Ye Zhi's heart is more mysterious. For men, this is a temptation that is hard to resist. Besides, they all have a beautiful appearance, so it is not difficult to understand. Why do I always see all kinds of suitors around them after I know them.

Although there are gender differences between men and women, and the responsibilities they need to bear in life are also different, I still envy them in my heart, but if I really want to say, I can’t say what I envy about them. come out.

In the end, I inexplicably gave up the desire to comment on these two posts of theirs.

After sitting for a while, I called Sun Jiwei and wanted to ask him out to have a few drinks with me.

……

In a small and quiet tavern in the ancient city, Sun Jiwei and I ordered a dozen beers and chatted while drinking. He smiled and asked me, "Did the conversation with Cao Jinbo's son not go well?"

"That's right... that thing is a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard."

"Then why is he unwilling to rent the shop to you?"

"I don't like it."

"Your popularity isn't that bad, is it... You just got a face-to-face meeting, and you've been disliked by others?"

I replied helplessly: "It's not that I'm not popular, it's just that I had a feud with him before. At that time, I didn't know that he was Cao Jinbo's son... Do you think this is very dramatic? After coming to Dali for less than half a year, I got into trouble with both father and son!"

Sun Jiwei nodded first, and then asked, "Then what are your plans for the future?"

"I definitely won't give up. If Cao Xiaobei really doesn't work, I'll talk to Cao Jinbo...I remember you said that he spent 16 million for the 1200 sets of shops at that time. I don't believe it. , he is willing to spend the 1200 million idle here without any value.”

"I definitely don't want it in my heart, but he has a lot of property and a lot of profitable businesses. With your little rent, I'm afraid it will be difficult to impress him."

I changed my sitting position, and then said: "Then let's make a hypothesis... If the commercial street of Jiulongju is fired up by someone or a certain team in the future, the value of all the shops will double. Even twice... Do you think he will be tempted?"

Sun Jiwei thought about it for a while, and then said with emotion: "Brother, your ambition is a bit big!"

I denied it: "I can't, and I don't have the ability to stir up the whole commercial street... But if I can accomplish this, it will be a great inspiration to other investors, showing that Jiulongju This place is not incapable of making money. If everyone is willing to invest money in and reduce the vacancy rate of the shops here, first of all, from the business level, there will be enthusiasm... If these reopened shops have their own characteristics, Let consumers have a desire to shop after they come in, which will naturally bring the whole commercial street into a virtuous circle, and finally the real beneficiaries are those big households like Cao Jinbo with more than a dozen sets of shops!"

"Well, if you can make a good start, you will definitely give other investors a lot of confidence... But, how do you prove that you can make a good start? I think this is very important and the most convincing."

"It depends on doing it, and it can be proved after it is really done...Anyway, I don't think it will do any harm to Cao Jinbo. Although the rent is a little low, at least it is good for me and him. a chance."

"This person is false and true, I'm afraid he doesn't think so!"

I smiled and replied: "Dealing with such a person is also a kind of exercise. After thinking about it, I don't think it is a bad thing."

Sun Jiwei also smiled, then raised his glass to me, and drank another bottle of beer with me. Just when I was about to open another bottle, he called again, saying that there was a wine bureau. It is impossible to ask him to participate, although he has not had a good time with me, but he can't refute the other party's face, and then left this small tavern... There is still a lot of wine left, so I am alone, and wanton The mood drank it all.

……

The progress of the demolition of Longkan was much faster than expected. After that, half a month later, a staff member of the demolition office came to me and discussed with me about the demolition. The life and death of the inn have now been settled , and because of the extra month Ye Zhi bought for us, the inn earned an extra one hundred thousand yuan, which is already a great favor. In Shanghai, one year's salary plus bonus income.

And in the past half a month, I got nothing. I tried to contact Cao Xiaobei once, but he didn't answer my call, and he didn't reply to the message. I can only pin my last hope on the upcoming For Cao Jinbo, who came back from vacation abroad, the time became more and more urgent, because at this time, there were only 26 days left before the Chinese New Year.If I can take over these 16 sets of shops, I am faced with the task of simply renovating and adding bedding, as well as external publicity.

It was another afternoon, and I moved all my luggage out of the inn. I sold all the other things that could be sold, and temporarily stored the unsold ones in the shop I rented from Brother Ping. ,it's all over.

We just watched the excavators and bulldozers coming from the entrance of the village, but we had no ability to stop them.

Tie Nan handed me a cigarette, lit it for me, and then said to me: "Let's go, it's all over...don't just watch, it's uncomfortable!"

I just shook my head, but didn't speak.

Tetsuo wanted to go first, but he stopped, and then stood side by side with me, while the excavators and bulldozers were getting closer and closer to us. The roar of the machines made my heart twitch. I thought of Wang Lei and the instructions she gave me in the last few days of my life.

I don't know if this is my broken promise, but I feel really uncomfortable. I can't forget how crazy everyone's joy was on the night when the inn was notified that it could resume business; In the yard, lamb chops were grilled, and gossip was warm; what’s more, I couldn’t forget sitting in the small bar by myself, spending those boring and lonely afternoons…

At this moment, I am very lost and in a daze. I feel as if I hold a handful of sand in my hand. Every grain of sand is a beautiful memory, but it is lost from my fingers. Director Ma and Bai Lu who went there, if they saw this scene in front of them, they would definitely be very sad...

With pain in my mouth, I thought about everything I could think of, and then, the excavator knocked down a wall of the yard...

I don't know when, Yang Sisi also stood by my side, she didn't like to hide herself, and became the only crying person present, influenced by her, Tao Zi also shed tears.

Until this time, I really had the desire to leave.

But Yang Sisi kept me and took me to Erhai Lake, which is the place where I often jumped down to swim, but Tie Nan had already left with the moving company's car with Tao Zi before us.

……

After standing in the wind for a while, Yang Sisi turned to look at me, then smiled again...

I said to her, "I was crying just now, and now I'm laughing... How many faces do you have?"

Yang Sisi turned her head to look at the little inn left, and then replied: "I cry because I can't bear to let go of everything I experienced in Dali; I laugh... because I can finally be free..."

I looked at her sadly and asked, "Really?"

"Of course... I came to Dali, isn't it just to spend the last time with the inn?"

"I thought you would leave after the New Year, and you seem to have said so."

"I'm talking about my mood. I don't have the mood to stay here anymore."

I asked realistically, "Then what about the house you rented in Shanshuijian?"

"Sister Taozi and Tie Nan have already moved in, what are you going to do?... I heard from Tie Nan that you would rather move to the shop in Jiulongju than live in the mountains and rivers, but you He promised me before that he would pass."

"Isn't this a temporary change... I have already rented four sets of shops in Jiulongju, which proves that I must do this business, so I must stay there."

"Then you just stay there."

I didn't speak, but there was another urge to smoke in my heart.

At this time, Yang Sisi unloaded a key from her key bag, then handed it to me and said, "This is the key to that little ninja, you can take it and open it after I leave..."

"Why do you want to open it for me?"

"I'm going to study abroad. Anyway, I won't need it in the future. I leave it to whoever opens it, not everyone opens it."

She forced the car key into my hand, but I felt that it was too heavy, because I still don't like the pain before parting.I was silent for a long time, and then I said to her again: "I'll buy your car... Just follow the price you said before, 1 yuan."
