Chapter 1 The Hotel on the Brink of Closing

Chapter 1 A hotel on the verge of bankruptcy

“This is the first time I’ve seen such a shabby resort hotel.”

"The room smells musty and the facilities are very old."

"Although the sheets looked clean, the floorboards squeaked and I didn't know if there were any bugs in the house."

"There's not even an elevator... It's really cheap but not good."

"It's such a waste of such a good location. The boss doesn't know how to spend money to renovate it."

At the entrance of Langai Hotel in Huanhai District, Nanjiang City, a young couple carried suitcases and left with complaints on their faces.

Chen Jianhai, who was guarding the front desk, sighed silently as he watched the two people leaving.

furnish……

He dreamed of it.

But where does the money come from?

This hotel was originally run by his parents a few years ago. It is located in the best location in Huanhai District and has a constant flow of customers every day.

However, with the rise of tourism, more and more B&Bs, mid-to-high-end hotels and five-star hotels have opened, occupying the limited resource market and creating increasing competition pressure.

At the same price, people will naturally choose hotels with updated renovations and better environments.

Since half a year ago, hotel operations have been unable to make ends meet, and hotel employees have resigned one after another.

Now, he can't even pay the electricity bill.

"Boss." A female voice came from beside him.

Chen Jianhai turned around and saw a middle-aged woman wearing blue cleaning clothes and holding a rag in her hand, looking at him with an embarrassed look.

"What's wrong, Aunt Wang?" Chen Jianhai asked.

"My girlfriend gave birth to a grandson, and the young couple was overwhelmed, so they asked me to help." Aunt Wang said slowly.

"You want to leave?" Chen Jianhai was stunned for a moment.

"I can't do it anymore." Aunt Wang smiled sheepishly.

"Boss, I know that you have been paying me wages out of your own pocket for the past few months. I can't do anything except increase the burden on the hotel by staying here."

Chen Jianhai felt a sense of reluctance in his heart.

Aunt Wang is an old employee of the hotel. She has been working here since the day the hotel opened.

Six months ago, his father fell ill due to poor management for a long time and finally passed away.

My mother was in frail health and passed away not long after suffering such a blow.

During that time, he was alone without anyone, and Aunt Wang was always with him.

And now, even she has to leave.

Opening the drawer and taking out 5,000 yuan, Chen Jianhai stuffed the money into Aunt Wang's pocket.

"Let's go." Chen Jianhai said softly.

"Boss, what are you doing? I don't want it!" Aunt Wang was anxious and reached out to return the money to Chen Jianhai.

"It's not much money. It's your salary for this month and the gift money for your grandson."

"When your child is young, it's time to use money, so just accept it."

Chen Jianhai forced the money back into Aunt Wang's hand.

"...Okay, thank you boss." Aunt Wang's eyes were wet.

After seeing Aunt Wang off, Chen Jianhai stood alone in the lobby, looking at the empty hotel building.

Sighed,

"Mom and Dad... I can't survive this hotel anymore."



Picking up the broom, Chen Jianhai stepped upstairs on the creaking old wooden boards and began to repeat his daily work.

Cleaning, mowing the yard, cleaning the swimming pool, checking electrical appliances, equipment maintenance...

Although there is no one living here, I can be a monk for a day and ring the clock for a day.

The hotel still needs to be kept clean.

"The electro-liquid mosquito coils are running out and I need to buy a few bottles; the screen window on the third floor is broken and need to be repaired; the bath products in the bathroom have expired and need to be replaced with a new batch... I don't have money to replace them with new ones..."

A few bars of soap."

In the eyes of outsiders, the promising young man who owns a big resort hotel actually lives a harder life than anyone else.

After looking at the degree of damage to the screen window, Chen Jianhai came to the warehouse, which was filled with tools.

I selected a wrench from the tool box, and as soon as I stood up, my back suddenly hit the shelf.

"boom"

A hard object hit Chen Jianhai on the head.

"Hiss~"

Chen Jianhai rubbed his head in pain, and it took him a while to recover.

I looked down and saw a bunch of keys on the ground.

These were the room keys when the hotel first opened. Although they were later replaced with electronic doors, these keys were kept by Chen's father and were not thrown away.

Over time, these keys have become rusty.

Chen Jianhai picked up the bunch of keys,

"Ding, welcome to the luxury hotel upgrade system."

Suddenly, a very special syllable suddenly appeared in his mind.

Chen Jianhai's body froze in place.

Then, a blue translucent box appeared in front of his eyes:

Store name: Langai Hotel

Equipment condition:Old

Business status: On the verge of bankruptcy

System description: The romance of a traveler is to conquer the stars and the sea.

The romance of hotel management is to use high-quality services to win satisfactory reviews from travelers, making the hotel a harbor for travelers to sail, a refueling area for rest, and a supply station for strength.

The system will assist the host to make the hotel bigger, stronger and brilliant step by step!

Chen Jianhai looked shocked.

Subsequently,

He reached out and slapped his face, and said to himself: "Am I under too much pressure and hallucinating?"

The virtual panel in front of you seems to be a game management page.

Chen Jianhai had played a similar business simulation game before and spent thousands in it. In the end, he stopped playing because the system was incompatible with his new phone.

In the game, he made the hotel reach the world's top black diamond level, covering an area all over a small island.

Private jets, luxury yachts, you name it!

But...life is not a game.

If he could make tens of thousands a day and expand his territory like a game, he wouldn't be forced into this by reality.

"Ding! The first mission has been released, host please check it yourself."

Electronic sounds sounded in Chen Jianhai's mind again.

Then, a few lines of words appeared on the blue screen in front of you:

Task: Clean all bed sheets and quilts in the hotel

Reward: Complimentary refurbishment of hotel beds and mattresses

Task tip: Soft and comfortable bedding is always the best partner for travelers to relieve fatigue. Clean all bedding, and the system will initially renovate all the mattresses in the hotel.

Free...refurbishment?!!!
