A tender of the property, as above provided, discharges the maker from the contract, and the property becomes vested in the payee or the payee's assignee, and the payee or assignee may maintain an action therefor as in other cases. But if the property tendered be perishable, or requires feeding, or other care, and no person is found to receive it when tendered, the person making the tender shall preserve, feed, or otherwise take care of the same, and shall have a lien thereon for the person's reasonable expenses and trouble in so doing.
