Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 246: Chapter 246 Original Sin 55

Liu Siyu’s thoughts weren’t on a whim; they were well-considered. Over the past few days, she didn’t just play around. Amidst her leisure, she carefully observed the operations and service status of Red Dust.

The business was simply booming, no need to elaborate. The influx of visitors almost filled all the rooms in Red Dust. In the past few days, people have been continuously coming over to request a stay, and it seems like the rooms at Red Dust are nearly fully booked.

Apart from business, the training of the staff inside Red Dust was excellent. The service was attentive without being overly enthusiastic. They handled unexpected situations well, and their actions and manners were well in place. They could compete with those of five-star hotel staff without a doubt.

However, in contrast to the staff, the management at Red Dust was severely lacking. There was no supervisor or lobby manager, only the two owners holding the fort. Liu Siyu believed that with her qualifications, she was definitely capable enough to be the lobby manager of Red Dust!

Indeed, Liu Siyu was right. During this period, Yun Shuangshuang and Feng Jinyan were quite stressed about finding a supervisor and a lobby manager. Finding a supervisor was relatively easy—they just needed to choose one from the outstanding staff. But finding a lobby manager was much more troublesome.

Yun Shuangshuang wanted to develop Red Dust into a five-star resort hotel, so her requirements for a lobby manager were very high. During this time, she interviewed countless people at the talent market, yet none satisfied her.

Just as Yun Shuangshuang was troubled by this, Liu Siyu came forward. Yun Shuangshuang reviewed Liu Siyu’s resume, and it was very impressive. She was a top student during her studies and graduated from a prestigious university. She caught the eyes of major companies during her internship and was hired as a formal employee upon graduation. Later, she was transferred to sales, where she excelled and was among the top performers. She was even a manager in her field!

Yun Shuangshuang also had a talk with Liu Siyu. Her eloquence was indeed excellent, and she was quick-witted. As a lobby manager, one needed to deal with guests and unexpected situations that the staff couldn’t handle, so good communication skills and quick thinking were a must. Liu Siyu was perfect in every aspect!

Such a talented person came voluntarily, and naturally, Yun Shuangshuang was not going to miss the opportunity. She generously offered a high salary of ten thousand yuan a month to hire Liu Siyu.

With such a high salary, Liu Siyu had many responsibilities. Yun Shuangshuang essentially handed over all the operations of Red Dust to Liu Siyu, allowing her mother, Feng Jinyan, to oversee it.

This was because Yun Shuangshuang planned to use the land and Red Dust as collateral to secure a bank loan and proceed with the planning she had calculated for Red Dust! She needed to accomplish at least this much before the scenic area became popular.

Li Ming’s film was a holiday release set to air at the end of the year. The guest surge should occur after the spring landscape becomes beautiful next year, meaning Yun Shuangshuang had over half a year to build her ideal complete version of Red Dust!

In fact, the rush to expand Red Dust’s subsequent projects was partly due to the rooms starting to tighten up. The reason was Liu Ying, Lu Jian, Sister Wang, Sister Bai, Sister Mei, and Zhao Ying—these major clients.

Yun Shuangshuang didn’t anticipate such powerful energy from these strong women. After staying at Red Dust, they returned to vigorously promote it for her.

The result was that just the clients introduced by these strong women put Red Dust at full capacity. With even a single customer, it would be packed, leaving no room, forcing some clients to drive back through the night after having a barbecue hotpot dinner in frustration.

In a way, Red Dust’s popularity came much earlier than Yun Shuangshuang expected. The expansion of Red Dust was now inevitable; without it, they couldn’t accommodate the guests visiting for its reputation.

The loan acquisition process for Yun Shuangshuang went smoothly. With strong government support, it was easy, and she was familiar with the suppliers for building materials. Being an old customer, she even got some discounts. For the construction, Yun Shuangshuang hired the same construction team that built Red Dust before. She was very satisfied with their work speed last time.

The construction team was also satisfied with Yun Shuangshuang as their client. Payments were prompt, and there was little hassle; the only demand was speed, making the job exhausting. However, they didn’t mind the exhaustion, only worrying that the client wouldn’t pay. They were happy to be worked hard because more work meant more earnings!

The foreman of this construction team had a conscience. As soon as his payment was received, his workers would immediately get paid. Thus, the workers under this foreman were particularly united and sincere in their work.

Time flew quickly. Located in the south, F City had humid air, with temperatures never dropping below zero, and no snow throughout the year. Even winter didn’t affect construction. The construction team rushed and finally completed the expansion of Red Dust by the end of the year!

This time, Red Dust’s expansion opted for the construction style resembling an ancient courtyard, with seven courtyard sections built front to back. The accommodation rooms were divided into four levels: deluxe, upper-class, middle-class, and lower-class.

The lower-class rooms, or standard rooms, featured private bathrooms, accommodating single or double occupancy, and were located in the second courtyard. Two separate five-story imitation ancient buildings were constructed on the left and right to house these rooms.

Of course, calling them lower-class rooms borrowed from the ancient inn’s terms. They were actually standard rooms in hotels, and their pricing was more accessible, mainly targeting the working class and university students.

The middle-class rooms were situated in the third courtyard, with decor that was very exquisite. The rooms were equipped with a treasure shelf and featured an imitation ancient bath barrel, and the rooms were larger. The price was roughly twice that of the lower-class rooms.

The upper-class rooms were located in the fourth and fifth courtyard sections, each measuring 100 square meters, featuring a bedroom, a flower hall, and a beautifully constructed spa pool. Though not a real hot spring, it was aesthetically pleasing, with warm water flowing from intricately carved white jade dragon heads.

There was a small boat on the water’s surface offering free exquisite snacks and premium fruits. If guests wished, they could order a glass of red wine or a portion of rose petals for a petal bath or bubble bath.

The furnishings of the upper-class rooms were even more refined, with occupants sleeping in ornate canopy beds resembling independent small rooms, rather than simple frame beds.

The upper-class rooms were equipped with a bell to call for staff at any time. Except for special services, the staff would meet all requests. Naturally, the price for upper-class rooms was extremely high, more than three times that of the middle-class rooms.

The sixth courtyard section was a public activity area, mimicking an ancient garden. It was complete with rock formations, flowing water, and scenic pavilions, with a variety of trees and flowers planted throughout the courtyard, providing blooms in all seasons.

A specially constructed artificial river ran through the planted trees in the courtyard. The water level was low, reaching just to chest height.

Visitors to the sixth courtyard section could don swimwear and enter the river for a swim. During the height of summer, one could swim and cool down in the water while enjoying the blooming flowers on both sides of the river. It was truly a visual and physical pleasure!
