Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Pay Back the Money You Owe Immediately

“Hello?”

Lin Yi asked carefully before the girl snapped back to her senses.

“Hello, Hello.” Tingting combed her hair and said in a very ladylike manner. She then handed the documents in her hands to Lin Yi.

“These are all the contracts and materials for the scenic area. Check if there is anything missing.”

“I’m not worried about your work. It shouldn’t be a problem.”

Lin Yi did not believe in them, but in the system.

He believed that with the system’s mannerism, there would not be any mistakes with this matter.

“Thank you for your affirmation of my work. If you have any doubts about the contract, you can call me.” Cai Tingting said enthusiastically.

“I do have some doubts.”

“Go ahead.”

“I want to ask, normally, Moon Bay Scenic Area is public property. Why would it be suddenly auctioned off? Is it because the cost has been recouped? Is that why you don’t plan to continue public administration?”

Cai Tingting’s expression was a little awkward. She thought for a few seconds and said.

“Normally, with my status, I shouldn’t tell you too much about this. But since you’ve asked, I’ll reluctantly tell you. Even so, you can’t publicize it. Do you understand?”

“Okay, go ahead.”

“In reality, Moon Bay Beach only has a slight maintenance cost every year, and it doesn’t cost much, but it’s very difficult to manage, so we entrusted outsiders to help manage it. However, we never expected those people to have very deep social backgrounds. In order to avoid forming a relationship with those people, after the contract expired and the city agreed, we opened a tender to sell the Moon Bay Scenic Area.”

After saying that, she looked around and noticed that no one was paying attention to her.

“But there’s one thing you shouldn’t misunderstand. Although the Moon Bay Scenic Area has been sold to you, it’s still national property, just like a house. After 70 years of ownership, a small portion of tax money will be required to renew the lease. This is clearly stated in the contract.”

“I understand.”

Lin Yi, who had gotten his bones in real estate, was quite familiar with this concept.

The land belonged to the country, and it was not like they could do whatever they wanted with it. Otherwise, it would be a mess.

Farmers did not even farm, they just built houses.

“Well, you’ll have to do the rest.”

“I’ll have to negotiate with the actual manager of Moon Bay to take care of the rest of the matters? Is that what you mean?”

“Yes.” Cai Tingting said.

“They’re at 142 Binhai Road. You should have passed by on your way here. You’ll see them when you drive back in the direction you came.”

“Okay, thank you.”

“You’re welcome. It’s all part of my job.”

Lin Yi drove away after saying his thanks.

Cai Tingting’s eyes were full of stars as she looked at Lin Yi’s supercar.

He was so handsome.

If only she had the chance to have a meal with him.

After leaving the administration, Lin Yi didn’t rush over immediately. Instead, he called Bi Songjiang.

“Boss Lin, are you looking for me?”

“I want to ask you about the Moon Bay Beach.”

“Isn’t it near Our Dock?” Bi Songjiang asked.

“Boss Lin, you’re thinking of buying Moon Bay Beach, right?”

Hearing Bi Songjiang’s tone, Lin Yi felt that something was wrong. “What’s wrong? Can’t we buy it?”

“It’s not that we can’t buy it. That place is a bit troublesome. Although it’s the public’s territory, the management rights have always been in the hands of some less than ideal people. President Lin, you’re a proper businessman. It’s best not to get involved with those people.” Bi Songjiang said.

“From last year until now, they owe us more than 200,000 dollars. They haven’t given it to us yet.”

“They even owe us money?” Lin Yi said with a frown.

“Because Wangjiang Dock and Moon Bay Beach are next to each other, they always come to rent our boats, but every time they give us IOUs, they never pay us back.”

“Can’t we just not lend it to them?”Lin Yi said, “And it’s been so long. Didn’t you call the police yet?”

“Boss Lin, the logic is correct, but a powerful dragon doesn’t suppress the local snake. We can’t afford to mess with them, so we just treat it as giving them an offering to avoid disaster.”

Lin Yi stroked his chin. “They even owe us money. This is interesting.”

“It’s inevitable for these things to happen when we go out to do business. There are always bad debts that can’t be settled,” Bi Songjiang said.

“Thus, I don’t recommend that you deal with those people.”

“But I’ve already bought it. I’m going to see what’s going on.”

“No way, President Lin, you bought Moon Bay Beach? You spent a lot of money, didn’t you?”

“A few billion, it’s not much.” Lin Yi said.

“Alright, let’s cut the crap. You sort out the IOUs. I’ll go pick you up now and then we will go over together.”

“Got it, Boss Lin.”

Lin Yi hung up the phone and drove to Wangjiang Dock.

Part of the scenic areas had been closed off, and the upgrading work was in full swing.

It did not take long before Bi Songjiang walked out of the building with a stack of documents in his hand.

They then drove to 142 Binhai Road.

There was a two-story building, and the wall was partially broken. It was probably old.

Two men with dyed yellow hair were smoking at the entrance of the building.

There was also a plaque on the right side of the entrance that said, “Donglai Tourism Co., Ltd.”

“It appears to be quite official. They’ve even set up a company.” Lin Yi said with a smile after parking the car.

“Hooligans these days are all decent. If you walk through the streets, you can’t even tell if they’re good or bad.”

“You’re right.” Lin Yi smiled. “Get out of the car and see what’s going on.”

“Okay.”

Seeing Lin Yi and BI Songjiang get out, the two people who were smoking at the door put out their cigarette butts and walked over.

“Yo, Boss Bi, why are you here?”

“Where’s your manager? I’m looking for him.”

“I’m sorry, our Dong Bro isn’t here right now.” The yellow-haired youth said with a smile.

“Who are you fooling? His car is still here. How can it not be around?”

“Boss Bi, don’t we just owe you some money? When it comes to chasing our *ss, we are neighbors after all. Isn’t it good to be friendly and make money together?”

“I’m telling you, don’t play around with me here,” Bi Songjiang said.

“The one standing next to me is the boss of our Wangjiang Dock. In addition, there is one more thing I want to tell you. Moon Bay Beach is now the private property of Boss Lin. You can continue in the tourism business, but don’t involve yourselves with Moon Bay Beach anymore.”

“It’s been acquired?!”

Both of them were surprised. They had heard about the auction before, but they did not expect it to be over so quickly.

“Come with me. Dong Bro is in his office,” the blondie said.

“I won’t be going into the office. Go back and tell him to get his people out ofMoon Bay Beach. We won’t interfere with each other’s business and won’t cause each other any more trouble,” Lin Yi said.

“Oh, by the way, you should pay us back the money you owe us. Don’t hurt our friendship over such a small matter.”
