When I took Wang Yi back to the ancient town, it was already half past nine in the evening.
It's neither too early nor too late, but at this time, there are not many people in this ancient town that is not commercialized.
The deserted incandescent street lamps shine on the bluestone road, which is very artistic and beautiful, as well as a kind of tranquility that comes from time to time.
The car could not drive directly into the ancient town, so it had to park in the parking lot at the gate, and then walked into the ancient town with Wang Yi.
In the quiet alley, there was only the sound of our footsteps, the occasional meowing of cats, and the sound of the wind blowing the street lamps swaying.
"It's not too late now, why haven't you seen anyone?" Wang Yi suddenly asked.
I smiled and replied: "It's like this here. Usually there's no one around at night. It's very quiet and it's very suitable for self-cultivation."
"No wonder you came here? How did you find this place?"
I smiled again and said, "It's fate. I didn't know where to go at that time. I just wanted to escape, so I just found a place on Douyin and came here."
"That means you should come here somehow."
"You know, I didn't believe in fate before, but now I do."
Wang Yi also smiled faintly, turned to me and asked, "Where do you live?"
I pointed to the front: "We'll be there soon. Do you see the sign of the coffee shop in front? That's it."
"Live in a coffee shop?"
"There is an inn there, and the coffee shop is also opened by the innkeeper."
While talking to Wang Yi, he continued walking forward and soon reached the door of the coffee shop.
The coffee shop is closed at night, but there is a side door next to it that you can enter through.
Taking Wang Yi to the inner courtyard, I found that Boss Tang was still in the courtyard, but he seemed to be lying on the deck chair and fell asleep.
I even walked behind him and he didn't notice me.
It wasn't until I patted his shoulder that he sat up in shock, looked around in confusion, and finally turned to look at me.
"You scared me! Why did you go? Why did you come back just now?"
"I picked up a friend. Do you have a guest room? Arrange it for my friend. He will stay like me and the room fee will be deducted from my account."
Boss Tang turned to look at Wang Yi, who greeted Boss Tang with a smile.
Boss Tang was obviously startled for a moment, then looked at me with a wicked smile and said, "What kind of friend?"
"Just ordinary friends, you should hurry up and clean up the room, it's so late."
"What a normal friend! I understand, I can just live with you!"
I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Old Tang, can you please stop thinking about her? We are really friends. I asked her to help me with things."
"That's it!" Boss Tang smiled at Wang Yi, "What's your eldest sister? Hello, my name is Tang Jian and I'm the boss here. What's your surname?"
Wang Yi took the initiative to shake hands with Boss Tang: "No need to give me the last name Wang, just call me Wang Yi."
"Okay, then you guys sit down for a while and I'll clean up the room."
"Sorry, Boss Tang."
"No trouble, no trouble, we're all friends, sit down first!" After Boss Tang greeted him, he went upstairs to clean up the room.
I pointed to the chair next to me and said to Wang Yi: "Sit down first, I'll go see if there's anything to eat."
She nodded, and after sitting down on the chair, I went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
There were some leftovers, so I heated them up directly, but there was no rice, so I had to cook two bowls of noodles.
When I came to the yard outside with noodles in hand, I found that Boss Tang and Wang Yi were already chatting, and the two of them seemed to get along quite well.
Boss Tang asked Wang Yi: "Xiao Yi, is it okay if I call you this?"
Wang Yi was polite, smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the name is just a code name, you can call me whatever you want."
Boss Tang said with a smile: "How old are you this year? Are you married?"
I walked over with two bowls of noodles, glanced at Boss Tang and said, "Old Tang, are you sensible? How can you just ask a girl her age?"
Boss Tang smiled awkwardly and said to Wang Yi: "Look at my mouth. She looks very young at first glance. It's okay. Just treat this place as your own home. Don't be restrained."
"Go to bed quickly, what time is it now?" I said to Boss Tang again.
After passing the noodle bowl to Wang Yi, I said to her: "There is no rice, so cook some noodles and make do with it."
"It's good. There are so many dishes here. In fact, it's enough without having to cook noodles."
"You have enough, but I don't have enough. I have to eat staple food to be full."
While eating and chatting with Wang Yi, she said to me: "This boss is quite interesting!"
"He!" I smiled and said, "It's funny. He's a mouthful and has a bad mouth. Don't worry if he says some unpleasant things."
"I can see that he is a very humorous person and very nice."
"Why do you feel like you talk less now?"
"Have it?"
"Really, I feel like you are not as lively as before, which makes me a bit uncomfortable."
Wang Yi smiled faintly again, and after eating some noodles, he said: "Actually, I haven't changed, it's your feelings towards me that have changed."
"I can't understand you anymore when you talk now. Forget it, let's stop talking about this and talk about business."
Wang Yi nodded, but asked me: "Is the company not established yet?"
"No, we have been dealing with the demolition matter before, and now we have basically reached an agreement. In addition, we still have to go to the city leaders to talk... Don't you want to get the share purchase contract finalized first?"
Wang Yi thought for a moment and said: "I think the next step is to set up a company first. Without a company, this contract cannot be completed."
That's right, I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau tomorrow, and you can help me get the contract first."
"Give me the details of the investors, as well as some of your ideas on share distribution."
"Oh, by the way, speaking of this, I need to talk to you about the distribution of shares in detail."
After a short pause, I changed my sitting position again and said to Wang Yi seriously: "It's like this. All the investors' funds will be used for the construction of the resort town in the future, including the construction of villas and their operation after completion... Quite."
It’s complicated. I have a detailed plan on my computer and I’ll send it to you early tomorrow morning.”
"Well, you'd better send me a copy. I need to know what you think."
"How many people are in the team now?" Wang Yi then asked.
I smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't count the investors, it's just the two of us now."
Wang Yi seemed a little surprised. He looked at me blankly and said, "You are really good! You are ready to do such a big thing without anyone else."
"You can just tell me that I am reckless."
Wang Yi also smiled and suddenly asked seriously: "Seriously, how confident are you about the success rate of this matter?"
"Want to hear the truth?"
"I'm here to help you, what do you think?"
"Uh..." I said after pondering for a while, "Half of it, to be honest, it's quite difficult."
"Everything is difficult. I never believe that there is a 100% successful career. Even Ali started from a small studio."
I nodded. In fact, I no longer believe in any chicken soup, but I knew what Wang Yi meant by this sentence.
We also talked a lot that night about setting up a company.
Wang Yi also suggested that I also set up a younger team, and this team must be comprehensive, and no longer be like the way before, one person can do the work of multiple people.
Simply put, we must move towards formality and have a good attitude from the beginning.
