Chapter 1797: Manager Sui Yuemin
In fact, Jing Xiaolu was also a little embarra.s.sed. She subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave, but she had the same thoughts as Yang Ming. She stopped her steps, looked at Yang Ming and said, “Then… Where’s the original one?”
“I placed it under your handbag,” said Yang Ming.
“Oh… You scared me to death. I thought that the waiter took it away already.” Jing Xiaolu let out a sigh of relief, “Continue your shower. I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Jing Xiaolu quickly exited the bathroom and patted her chest that was trembling nervously. She thought, Why am I so perverted? I kept staring at Yang Ming non stop after going in… En, his body figure is quite good.
Oh my, what am I thinking about? However, Jing Xiaolu suddenly changed her perspective. She thought, What’s wrong with me looking at his body? I like him, and I’m also his girlfriend now. Why can’t I look at it?
Jing Xiaolu suddenly felt righteous when she thought of this. There’s nothing wrong with me looking. Hmph hmph.
After going back to the room, she found the previous bedsheet under her handbag. She immediately kept it inside her handbag.
After the waiter left Yang Ming’s room, he went back to the reception. He asked his colleague Little Yu, “Little Yu, Room 307’s guest said that he has thrown the original bed sheet away, so I gave them a new bed sheet. How much does a bedsheet cost? He said that he would pay for it.”
“This… I’m not sure. I have never encountered such a situation before!” Little Yu shook his head, “Are you able to find the previous bed sheet? If it can be found, then he doesn’t have to pay.”
“The thing is, he threw the previous bedsheet away…” The waiter shook his head.
“Then I don’t know anymore. I advise you to ask the Manager. I can’t decide this matter,” said Little Yu.
“Alright, guess that’s the only choice left!” The waiter stood up and was about to find the Manager.
Sui Yuemin was a little unhappy these days. His elder brother Sui Yuejin was murdered by someone anonymously, and his nephew Sui Guangqi had succeeded the family’s huge wealth. Sui Yuemin’s position became a little awkward.
When his elder brother Sui Yuejin was still here, he would just pretend to not see what underhanded stuff Sui Yuemin did at the Immortal Resort. He just let his little brother do whatever he wanted to.
But now, the person in charge wasn’t Sui Yuejin anymore, but his son Sui Guangqi. After Sui Guangqi inherited the position, he went through the auditing records and found out some problems with the resort.
Originally, Sui Yuemin thought that since Sui Guangqi was his nephew, he would just let it be even if he really discovered some problems. He just had to be more honest in the future. However, he never expected Sui Guangqi to suddenly transform into another person after Sui Yuejin pa.s.sed away.
Until now, Sui Yuemin still remembered those ambiguous words Sui Guangqi told him after he looked through the auditing records the moment he inherited the position.
The incident happened in the office he was in right now. However, Sui Guangqi was the one sitting in the chairman’s seat. He was crossing his legs while flipping through the pile of records on the table. Sui Yuejin felt a little resentment towards Sui Guangqi’s lack of manners. He thought, At the very least, I’m your uncle. How can you just sit there? Have you lost the concept of seniority?
However, everyone just discussed official matters when they were in the company. Sui Yuemin could not find any reason to scold him. After all, no matter what relations.h.i.+p Sui Guangqi had with him, Sui Guangqi was now the new chairman of the company. Even if he was Sui Guangqi’s uncle, he was still considered as his staff.
“Uncle, this resort has been in business for such a long time. Why is it not profiting much?” After seeing the data, Sui Guangqi raised his head and asked plainly.
“Ugh… Guangqi, as you already know …” Sui Yuemin was interrupted by Sui Guangqi the moment he opened his mouth.
“Uncle, this is the office. You should call me chairman.” Sui Guangqi frowned. He thought, I’m just giving you respect by calling you uncle. How can you not know what’s happening? How can you still try to leech off me? Can’t you have a little self-awareness?
“This…” Sui Yuemin’s facial expression froze momentarily. He felt awkward and angry. Previously, when his elder brother was still the chairman, he could call him “elder brother” and his elder brother would not say anything. He didn’t ask Sui Yuemin to call him chairman.
On the other hand, his nephew was… However, no matter what, Sui Yuemin was working under someone else now. He gritted his teeth, and could only hold it in. “Chairman, as you know, this resort is in a rural area. It’s at West Star Mountain which is between Song Jiang and Jidun City. Since it’s so distant, people will only come during the weekends. Usually, it’s basically empty. Since we have so many workers to pay, how can we profit?”
“Is that so?” After hearing Sui Yuemin’s explanation, Sui Guangqi smiled without agreeing or denying anything, “But why do I feel like this isn’t what I saw?”
“Ah…” Sui Yuemin didn’t know what Sui Guangqi wanted to say, and felt a little awkward.
“What day is it today?” Sui Guangqi turned his head and asked the beautiful secretary beside him.
“Chairman Sui, it’s Monday today,” said the secretary with a sweet and childish voice.
“Did you hear that? My uncle, the Manager of the Immortal Resort, today is Monday!” Sui Guangqi snorted. “Everyone says that Monday is the day with the least business. Budo you know what? Little Tao, tell him what we saw when we came here.”
“Yes, Chairman Sui.” The secretary Little Tao smiled attractively at Sui Guangqi. After that, her face turned disdainful when she faced Sui Yuemin, “Mr. Sui Yuemin, when the chairman and I came here, we saw that the entrance was filled with cars. Although it wasn’t as full as during weekends, two-third of the spots were filled. The chairman also went to the reception to consult them, and originally wanted the most luxurious high-end presidential suite. However, the receptionist told us that the presidential suite had already been reserved for the whole year!”
“This…” Sui Yuemin’s sweat started trickling down his face. He never expected his nephew to be this aggressive.
“Uncle, this high-end president suite requires three thousand yuan per day, right? And he reserved it the whole year? Even if you gave him fifty percent off, you should still have received five hundred forty-seven thousand and five hundred yuan. How can the resort not earn any money?” Sui Guangqi looked at Sui Yuemin, “We can earn this much with just a presidential suite in a year. How about the others? Don’t tell me that the worker’s salary here is very expensive. If every waiter can get ten thousand yuan per month, then I would just work here next time.”
“That presidential suite… Actually… It isn’t reserved…” Sui Yuemin’s cold sweat continued to trickle down his face. He had no choice but to explain.
“If it isn’t reserved, where did it go? You have a room, and yet you don’t want to rent it to a customer? What kind of problematic business management is this?”Sui Guangqi sneered.
“Actually, I am the one who stays there. The resort is too far away from the city, and I have to drive a few hours after work. It’s too annoying. So, I let your aunt stay here with me in this resort together,” Sui Yuemin explained. “I thought that no one would stay in the presidential suite, so I stayed there…”
“Oh? Do you mean that you were thinking of the resort when you stayed in the presidential suite?” Sui Guangqi was humored, and asked.
“This… That isn’t true…” Sui Yuemin knew that Sui Guangqi was scrutinizing him today.
“Uncle, you are enjoying quite a lot, huh? You’re even staying at the high-end presidential suite. Did the resort become your house?” Sui Guangqi snorted, “Let’s not talk about this. How about you tell me, how is there n.o.body in the resort under normal circ.u.mstances? Do we have to have a look and see the check-in percentages of the resort?”
“This… There’s no need to…” Sui Yuemin’s cold sweat continued to trickle. He decided to go all out, “Chairman, just say it. What do you want to do?”
Sui Yuemin had already thought about it. Since he was Sui Guangqi’s uncle, he would just be scolded at most. What else can he do to me? He felt that his nephew simply wanted to a.s.sert his dominance. While he felt that it was a little unfair, he had no other choice.
“Uncle, if we were to deal with this matter privately, it would be our Old Sui Family’s business. However, if we were to make it official, then you would have gone against the laws of the economy. If I were to show your account to the Economic Investigation Team, what do you think will happen?” Sui Guangqi asked.
“You…” Sui Yuemin never expected that Sui Guangqi wanted to corner him, and even wanted to send him to prison. He got anxious immediately, “Sui Guangqi, I’m your uncle, your dear uncle! When you were young, I still hugged you and played with you! You can’t do this!”

“Hehe, that’s right. You’re my uncle, my dear uncle. I’m just making a hypothesis.” Sui Guangqi laughed, “Uncle, seeing how you and I are uncle and nephew, I won’t look too much into your wrongdoings. However, spit out all the money you had pocketed in the last few years…”
“I… What did I pocket? Guangqi, don’t spout nonsense!” Sui Yuemin felt a little heartache when he was requested to spit all the money out. This was even crueler than sending him to prison.
“Sigh,” Sui Guangqi pretended to be in a state of difficulty, and let out a sigh, “Fine, uncle. On behalf of my deceased father, which is your elder brother, how about this? I’ll give you a way out. If you want to proceed with it, then we would still be uncle and nephew in the future. I won’t look into your other responsibilities. However, if you were to object, then we can only make things official.”
“Make things official… What do you mean…?” Sui Yuemin was a little anxious, “Guangqi, you just gave me two paths. Can’t I choose anything else?”
“Hehe, uncle. You’re a smart guy. You should be clear about which path you should pick.” Sui Guangqi still had a sneer on his face.
“Fine, you win! I’ll pick the first path!” said Sui Yuemin.
“Alright, first path. Uncle, you have chosen the right one.” Sui Guangqi said in a relaxed manner, “Uncle, you and I know how much money you have pocketed. It’s been so many years, hehe. If we were to put it badly, you can open up another resort with it.”
“This… It’s not that much…” Sui Yuemin did not object to the fact that he had been pocketing the company’s money. However, he didn’t want to admit that he took that much.
“Let’s not talk about this. I won’t look into it anymore, “said Sui Guangqi. “How about this? The market price of this resort is one hundred million and twenty thousand yuan. Seeing how you’re my uncle, I’ll give you a discount. One hundred million yuan, and I’ll sell this resort to you. Next time, you can continue managing the business, and won’t have any relations with the group anymore.
“This… Where can I take out one hundred million from?” Although Sui Yuemin said that, he started to a.n.a.lyze the possibility of it happening.
“Whether you can work it out or take out the money, it has nothing to do with our group.” Sui Guangqi continued, “No matter if you borrowed or saved up the money, I am already benevolent enough to give you this path. Go think about it yourself. Do you want to go to jail, or continue being the Manager?”
“Fine! I’ll buy it!” Sui Yuemin gritted his teeth and said. He had no other choice. Sui Guangqi was already considered as taking care of him by giving him this path. Although Sui Yuemin had pocketed only around one hundred million yuan during the past few years, the resort would be his after he gave this one hundred million yuan away. He didn’t have to worry about not being able to profit.
It was obvious that Sui Guangqi had planned this beforehand. He knew approximately how much Sui Yuemin had pocketed during the past year, and knew that he had no way of bargaining. Everyone was aware of this matter.
“Seems like uncle is a smart man.” Sui Guangqi nodded, “Then it’s settled. Congratulations, uncle. You have become the owner of the resort.”
Sui Yuemin laughed forcefully twice. He felt an emotion he couldn’t describe deep down.
Now that the resort had become his, Sui Yuemin could never be like he was before and only focus on trying to pocket the money. He now had to worry about the resort’s management.
After this hundred million yuan was given out, Sui Yuemin would still have a few hundred thousand left. This wasn’t enough to pay for the entertainment as well as the maintenance of the resort’s facilities. Because of this, Sui Yuemin was thinking of ways to try and get more money to compensate for it.
As for the high-end presidential suite, Sui Yuemin had already moved out of it long ago. He stayed in a normal guest room with his wife. Since the resort was now his, he would naturally use this room to earn money.
“Knock knock knock…” The sound of someone knocking the door came from outside of the office. Sui Yuemin said casually, “Enter!”
The waiter from the reception, Xiao Zhang, walked in, “President Sui, I’m Xiao Zhang from the reception.”
“En, what’s the matter?” Sui Yuemin had a faint impression of him. He looked at Xiao Zhang and asked.
“It’s like this. A guest wanted me to send a bedsheet over, so I went to change it for him. However, he said that the previous bed sheet had already been thrown away…” said Waiter Xiao Zhang. “The guest said that he would compensate us. However, I have never encountered this kind of situation before. I don’t know how much I should ask him to pay…”
“Do you have to find me for such a small matter?” Sui Yuemin frowned, “Just pick up the bed sheet that he threw away. It’s just a bedsheet anyway…”
“I also said the same thing. However, the guest said that the bed sheet is really gone. He wanted to just pay money,” Waiter Xiao Zhang said embarra.s.sedly.
“Gone? He really said so?” Sui Yuemin was surprised for a moment, and suddenly had some interest in the matter.
“Yes, he said so,” said Xiao Zhang.
“Oh? Tell me, how many guests are in the room? Is it a guy and a girl?” Sui Yuemin’s face suddenly had a strange expression.
“That’s right. When they came back to the villa and were parking their car outside, I was the one that helped direct them,” Xiao Zhang nodded and said.
“Hehe…” Sui Yuemin laughed treacherously. “I know what they used that bed sheet for!”
Sui Yuemin was actually quite smart. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to pocket so much money from the resort. After he thought about it for a moment, he immediately understood. The man and woman must have used the bedsheet as a memento. This kind of thing had also happened in the past. However, most people just cut off a piece of the bedsheet and left. They wouldn’t want to buy the entire bed sheet.
“Ah? What is it used for?” Xiao Zhang still hadn’t realized yet.
“Do you remember the times when people cut part of their bedsheet?” Sui Yuemin laughed treacherously and asked.
“Ah! I understand now…” Xiao Zhang’s face started to blush. He understood what Sui Yuemin meant.
“What car did they drive?” A plan appeared in Sui Yuemin’s mind
“BMW X5,” said Xiao Zhang.
“BMW X5? Does that mean that they’re quite rich? Seems like the guy is from a rich family?” Sui Yuemin was happy after hearing what the guest’s vehicle was. He was even more certain that his plan would work.
“That’s not it. I saw the woman driving,” Xiao Zhang quickly explained.
“A woman? That’s even better!” Sui Yuemin snickered, “I was afraid that the guy won’t pay for the girl’s bed sheet. Now, it’s all good. Seems like this girl is also a princess from a rich family!”
“President Sui, you… what do you mean? I don’t understand it.” Xiao Zhang was a little confused.
“Since it’s such an important thing, of course it requires a little bit of money. How about this? You tell the guest in the room that the bed sheet is one hundred thousand yuan!” Sui Yuemin was a little too poor recently. If it was previously, he wouldn’t even bat an eye for one hundred thousand yuan. However, he needed this hundred thousand yuan for emergency use now.
“What! One hundred thousand?” Xiao Zhang’s mouth widened in shock after hearing it, “President Sui, how much did you say?”
“One hundred thousand. What’s wrong? Just tell them that the bedsheet was imported, and it’s made out of Australian Wool. A hundred thousand is already considered cheap.” Sui Yuemin simply made an excuse.
“This… Isn’t inappropriate, right?” Xiao Zhang suddenly couldn’t decide, “What if they don’t want to pay us…”
“Don’t want to pay? That’s fine. Just let them find the thrown bed sheet and return it,” said Sui Yuemin.
“President Sui, aren’t we being a little too overboard by doing this?” Xiao Zhang didn’t really want to scam others.
“Am I the Manager or are you?” Sui Yuemin frowned, “What’s wrong? You don’t want to work here anymore?”
“No… Alright, I’ll go speak about it…” Xiao Zhang had no choice and could only nod.
“If you can’t even do this thing well, what can you do? Just call me if anything happens.” Sui Yuemin waved his hand and signaled Xiao Zhang to leave.
Xiao Zhang had no choice but to go to Room 307, Yang Ming’s room, with a bitter face. He was the son of a farmer living nearby, and lived a very simple life. He had never done anything bad before. Every time when a guest left their stuff behind, he would always return it back to them. However, the boss wanted him to scam others this time…
After Xiao Zhang reached Room 307, he hesitated for a moment and knocked on the door.
“Who is it?” Yang Ming had just finished showering and was wearing his pajamas. He asked after he heard the knocking sound.
