Chapter 225: The place where dreams set sail
The next day, I still got up early in habit. After washing up, I walked around the Xitang River. However, today I was unable to meet the woman in red on the bank of the river. I think she must have left Xitang after she realized something.
And what about me? Maybe I will stay in Xitang for a long time, but one day I will leave because my roots are not here.
At about 9 o'clock, I returned to the inn, but I didn't find the inn owner. There was a guest who happened to ask for a house, so I helped him receive it. However, after the guest heard that it was a 150 yuan hotel fee and did not bargain, he turned around and left.
I was a little depressed and really didn't understand why he was so persistent in the price of 150 yuan and refused to compromise.
A moment later, the inn owner returned to the inn, holding a blackboard in his hand, which read the transfer advertisement.
I asked with some surprise, "Boss, do you really want to transfer this inn?"
"Um."
"This inn is not completely unsuccessful. If you adjust the accommodation price appropriately according to the off-peak season of the travel, and then redecorate it, the business may still improve."
He shook his head and said, "I don't open an inn to find a job here to make a living."
"Then what are you doing?"
He looked into the distance, his expression was a little sad. He lit a cigarette for a long time and said, "I have been waiting for a woman in Xitang who has been in the dark... It has been 5 years, and she shouldn't come back, so I shouldn't continue to stay here. I should live a normal life."
I looked at him with shock, wondering what power can support a person to wait for 5 years in Xitang. These 5 years may be far more difficult than the years I had been waiting for Jian Wei. At least I also know that Jian Wei is in the United States.
But five years later, he finally used up his last trace of strength and chose to give up waiting.
I was curious about what a thrilling thing was behind the waiting period, so I asked again: "Can you talk to me about your story?"
He shook his head: "Stories are just stories, especially stories that have reached the end, and there is nothing to say."
The firmness in his words forced me to choose to respect him again. After a while, I looked at the blackboard in his hand and asked, "How much do you plan to transfer this inn?"
"50,000, and the van outside to pick up and drop off passengers."
"You're a little loser at this price!" I reminded. After all, in addition to vans, the decoration and electrical equipment in the inn also cost him a lot of money.
But he asked me without much care, "Are you interested in taking over?"
I was a little moved, but once I accepted it, I would be trapped in Xitang and might not leave for several years.
After weighing the pros and cons in my mind, I said to him, "I'm a little interested, but I need time to think about it."
He nodded and said nothing.
...
When he returned to the room he lived in, the boy had already gotten up and was still playing his online games.
I asked him with a smile, "Why are you getting up so early today?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to take me to dinner? I'll get up early and prepare, prepare!"
I stared at him for a long time, but I didn't realize what he had prepared. I was still in sportswear and sweatpants. My head that I hadn't washed for a few days seemed to be covered with a bird's nest.
I sat back on my bed, smoked a cigarette, and felt bored, so I said to the boy, "Do you know the inn we stayed in is going to be transferred?"
"Ah!... Then where will we live in the future? I have paid the rent for a month!"
"The boss will definitely make arrangements before the transfer, so don't worry about it."
As expected, the boy stopped worrying, 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, instantly recalling his attention: "Brother Yang, what's wrong with you?"
"What do you think if I buy this inn?"
"true and false?"
"I don't have a job now, and it's pretty good to open an inn!"
The boy instantly said to me, "It's open, why not? If there is a shortage of staff, I can help you work!"
"Are you sure you're not on a whim?"
The boy said to me seriously: "Brother Yang, it's not a whim... You said it's so boring to work after graduation. It's better to stay in a picturesque place in Xitang and see the beauties every day!"
"If you have this mentality, you don't have to work for me!"
"Then what mentality should I have?"
"If I really decide to take over this inn, it will be operated regularly in the future. In a few years, our inns will be in the scenic spots across the country. This will be my goal. You said, can I be happy to treat my grand achievements with a fun attitude?"
The boy opened his mouth wide and looked at me for a while and said, "Brother Yang, are you sure you are not kidding me?...A national chain inn, it seems like you are dreaming when you think about it!"
“The realization of dreams often starts from an inconspicuous corner.”
"But there are hundreds of thousands of inns across the country, but there are not many that can be formed into chains. This is too difficult, right?"
I smiled and said, "Compared to it, I still think that your dream of breaking your virginity is a little harder to realize!"
The boy looked at me with a desperate look on his face... After a while, he skipped the topic of virginity and asked, "Then do you have the money to buy this inn?"
"No, but I can find a way!"
"Or why we should join forces... If one day it really becomes a national chain, what a strategic investor I will become!"
"Partnership! Where did you get the money for investment with a small penis?"
"I can sell my game account...it's worth at least 20,000 yuan!"
I looked at him with a look of doubt.
He said to me again: "Brother Yang, God is fair to people. He has let me be a virgin for so long, so he will definitely give me talents in other aspects... I am an absolute game master, and the major I studied in college is game development!"
I sighed and said, "You can play a game and spend 20,000 yuan. What's wrong with this society?"
The boy smiled proudly and said to me again: "Brother Yang, let's open an inn in Xitang together!"
With the final doubt, I asked, "Don't your parents interfere with you?"
"No, Xitang is not too far from our home anyway, and I just graduated from college, so they don't have too high requirements for me. Besides, opening an inn is also a kind of entrepreneurship. We Zhejiang people are still very keen on starting a business!"
I nodded and measured it in my heart again... Since I have no reason to return to Suzhou, why not choose Xitang for the time being?
Moreover, I have been confused for a long time and really need a career of my own, even if I started a small fight.
After confirming this idea, I finally said to the boy with anticipation, "Okay, let your dreams take root and blossom here!"
The boy applauded excitedly, as if he had already accomplished a great cause that was earth-shaking.
I smiled at him and said, "Okay, hurry up and take a shower, clean up yourself, and introduce you to my friends later."
The boy nodded, picked up the clothes he had changed and went into the bathroom.
