Ning Anlan took a sip of water and calmed herself down a little. She had been feeling a bit agitated, and this was not a good thing for her.
"I know that you pursue benefits to maximize their potential. However, I believe that since you pursue benefits, you don't necessarily have to build a hotel." Ning Anlan sat in a comfortable position with a calm gaze, as if he was a completely different person from before.
The ancient city raised an eyebrow. It seemed that the calm and composed Ning Anlan had already returned. It was really boring. He thought she would be able to hold on for a long time.
Compared to Ning Anlan's calm and self-reliant appearance, the ancient city liked her look of begging even more.
"Oh? "It seems like you've already thought about it. Why don't you tell me first and see if you can convince me."
The ancient city leaned against its chair, quietly watching Ning Anlan. Ning Anlan gritted her teeth. She had the feeling that the ancient city was trying to make things difficult for her, but she had no other choice.
"Actually, I don't think the benefits of a hotel are that great. It's just that that place is very suitable for building a hotel. However, I feel that I have a better choice now."
Ning Anlan thought about it. Actually, she didn't have any complete plans before she came here. It was just that she suddenly had some ideas when she was facing the ancient city.
Coincidentally, although her thoughts weren't mature enough, she still wanted to share her thoughts. She didn't believe that the ancient city would be indifferent to such items that were obviously more profitable than hotels.
"Go on." The ancient city's fingers were on the table. He really wanted to hear what Ning Anlan had in mind.
In fact, he hadn't thought about what to do when he first bought the land. He had only heard that Ning Anlan had firmly rejected the idea of building a hotel here, which was why he wanted to build a hotel.
After all, he knew that this was not a hotel. There would be huge profits in this place, and there were many other options. It would be more profitable than the hotel. However, right now he just wanted to build the hotel for no other reason than to see how worried Ning Anlan was.
"Actually, as you can see, in this city, the buildings in Northern Lane are very iconic and have a very high historical value. "We can make full use of this point. It's not that we want to destroy them, but rather, we can modify them or repair them. We can build a landmark. When that time comes, we won't have to worry about not being able to earn money." Ning Anlan's face was serious, and his words were logical.
The ancient city raised an eyebrow. "But how can you guarantee that if you change it into a landmark, someone will definitely come?" "You know, fixing him is a very high price, and I don't want my investments to be wasted."
Ning Anlan gritted her teeth. She had thought of this question, so she said, "I've thought about it, and I can assure you that if you've really built it, there will be people coming here. Because in the capital, there are fewer buildings like this and he has a huge advantage in location, so this place will definitely bring a lot of profits."
Ning Anlan thought about it, and suddenly felt a little regretful that he didn't let this Northern Grace Lane develop on its own. However, when he thought about it again, she didn't have the power to do such a thing.
"I know what you're talking about, and I also know that my dreams will bring me huge profits, but I don't want to do that right now. I just want to build this hotel."
Ning Anlan clenched her fists. She knew that it wouldn't be easy to convince the ancient city, but she didn't expect him to be so shameless. He had obviously agreed to her suggestion, but he didn't intend to take it.
"Why? Didn't we agree on it? I can convince you not to build a hotel in North Lane. "
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, but Ning Anlan still maintained his good manners, not saying a single word of vulgarities.
She tried her best to restrain herself and resist the urge to fall out with the ancient city, because she really couldn't understand why the ancient city would deliberately make things difficult for her.
That's right, even the dumbest person would be able to tell that the ancient city was deliberately making things difficult for Ning Anlan, so how could he not see through it?
"No reason. I just want to build a hotel."
As the ancient city spoke, Ning Anlan pursed his lips. It could be seen that he was very unhappy, but he didn't show it. He just stayed quiet for a few seconds, thinking about something.
"If you have nothing else, I'll leave first." Before the food was served, the ancient city looked at the time and was about to get up. Ning Anlan grabbed him, not letting him move.
"I'm not finished yet. Wait a moment, I only need five minutes!"
Ning Anlan let out a sigh. Although the ancient city was currently quite infuriating, the fate of the North End was in his hands. She could not easily give up.
Looking at Ning Anlan's bright eyes looking at him for an instant, the ancient city was confused for a moment, but in the next moment, the ancient city frowned and became irritated.
He didn't know what had just happened, but he didn't like the feeling he had just given off.
"I know you are a businessman, and everything is about benefits. However, there are some things that money cannot measure. For example, how much history does this Northern Grace Lane carry. This is simply an enormous and precious treasure."
As Ning Anlan spoke, he saw that the ancient city had already been put away. At first, it didn't seem to care at all. He didn't know what to think.
He had been wondering why Ning Anlan wanted the government to promise not to change North Alley into a hotel. He had thought that Ning Xuemo had other plans, but he hadn't thought that this would be the reason.
It was different from what he had initially thought.
"I know what you mean, but I'm not going to do what you want." The ancient city calmly took a sip of tea. Looking at the tea leaves turning in the tea, he raised his head and glanced at Ning Anlan. Indeed, he was unable to contain his anger.
"You … What exactly do you want? " Ning Anlan's brows were knitted tightly. The ancient city had always been able to change her mood greatly, even if she didn't want to have any arguments with him.
"But, if you really want me to promise you … "Well, if you beg me now, maybe I'll agree."
Hearing the words of the ancient city, Ning Anlan felt as if all the blood in her body was flowing backwards. She felt as if her head was about to explode. How could the person in front of her be so shameless?
Despite the dissatisfaction in her heart, Ning Anlan had no choice but to lower her head. She gritted her teeth and forced out two words, "Please!"
