Chapter 110 The plan 2

Yes, that is the only way to know my hard effort on this hotel.

But this is the first customer you are bringing, don’t get too carried away, Ken advice peter.

Thank you for your advice but no thanks, because am going to show you that I am the man of the people, just do what I ask.

Ok, I will do it, and I will also give every worker a code, any time someone book with their code, they will get a commission.

Now you are talking peter said, nice doing business with you, I will be on my duty post. He left ken standing there, thinking maybe this is the solution he has been waiting since, yes, thank you peter, I think I have found a solution. He went into action immediately creating code for each worker and making plans to hold a meet where he will introduce the now method.

Yes, sir, thank you sir, we will surely do as you say, all the workers are very happy to start earning commission aside from their normal salaries.

I think you are doing well, Gina said when she found out what ken just did.

Yea, is not my idea, peter brought up the idea.

Really? I thought he has no brains, this is the first time am seeing him do something reasonable.

Don’t say that, you know he is my friend, if you say that, it means I too don’t have brains.

Is it today you know? Gina ask.

What? You don’t mean that, then if I don’t have brain, it then means you too don’t have brain because you are my wife. Ken said.

Hahaha they both laugh.

A knock interrupted their conversation.

Sir, you know to see this. one of the staff said.

What is it?

Some of the workers are resigning.

Why?

I don’t know sir.

Ken stood up and went to find out.

Is not me sir, is him, one of the worker pointed at another one.

He said that you are trying to use us and that we should resign that he is going to take us to the other hotel, that they will double our payment and they will not ask us to bring any customer.

Really? So how many of you wants to resign, ken ask.

Nobody said anything.

Am asking you again , how many of you wants to resign?

One person raise his hand, and push the next person beside him, are you not going to raise your hand? You were the one shouting since, resign, resign, now you are keeping quiet.

Leave me alone, I don’t want to resign, I only want a raise. 

Ken look at them and ..you, you and you, you are fired, leave this office now.

 But am not among them sir, they start to beg.

Go and work for the other company, and don’t come back here.

See what you have done, just make sure they will employ us if not, I will not take it kindly with you.

The next day they arrival at the other hotel.

Who do you want to see? The receptionist ask.

We are here to see Mr. Tom.

He is not in, but he will come about an hour.

Ok, we will wait for him.

Ok.

After about an hour Mr. Tom drove in, and walk to his office.

Hello sir, you have visitors, his secretary announce.

Ok, let him in.

Good morning sir.

Good morning, I hope you brought good news.

Yes, three of the staff just resigned sir.

Just three? What will I do with just three workers resigning? I want his full team dissolve.

But I think that will be a little bit difficult

Why? Mr. Tom ask with all seriousness.

Because his team are his family members except one that is his friend.

Friends?

Yes sir,

Then we will start from there, I need to see his friend, he can be bought.

I don’t think so sir, he is very loyal to him.

Hmmm, loyal my foot.

Call me lady J on your way out.

Ok sir, but you need to pay me.

What for?

For the job I’ve done sir.

You did not do your job very well so no payment for you.

But sir, you can make all the staff resign in one day, give me time and all will be ok.

Time? You want more time, but time is not on my side.

What? He ask wondering if Mr. Tom want to go and die, because looking at him you will see bitterness and he is almost looking like dead.

I just need money to keep body and soul together.

Fine take, he hand him a bundle.

Thank you sir, thank you sir, he bow as he went out.

Call me lady J.

Yes sir.

Lady J Mr. Tom wants to see  you.

What  for?

I don’t know, you can ask him that yourself.

She get up  and went to his office. 

How far have you gone? He ask.

Not much, am still working on something.

What? He hit the table, you are still working on what? Look, I heard some celebrities have started hanging out in their hotel, and you are telling me that you are working on something.

What will you have me do? Mr. Tom. Lady J ask with a straight face. 

If they want to have all the celebrities in the world, then let them, I don’t have to announce  my movies, they wouldn’t see me coming, she said looking at empty space. And that made Mr. Tom very happy, this are the kind of people I like.

Well, let me tell you want I just did, Mr. Tom said, I made three of his  workers resigned, he said with so much pride.

Is that something to be proud of? Lady J ask.

Yes, at least I have done something, but you, what have you done?

I have told you Mr. Tom, I don’t make announcements, just wait and see.

Ok, if you say so, but I think I have very important information that you will need.

Which is?

We need to attack him team.  

Hmm, and how do you plan on doing that?, because I heard his team is made up of his family members.

Oh.. you heard about that too, but there is still someone we can use.

Who? Ask lady J.

His friend, I heard his friend is part of his team.

Don’t even go there, that one is more loyal than his family member, am thinking of his brother.

You have a point there, let’s try his brother then.

No problem, just leave it to me.

Ok.

We need to know who owns that hotel and who is behind all this, ken said in the meeting, he as call a meet of only his team of 5 members.

So how  do we get to know the owner since Ben has try and fail.

I did not fail, I only try once.

Fine, I will try. Miriam said.

Ok, am giving you that job, I know you will succeed ken said and Miriam smiled.   This is the first task  ken is giving to Miriam since the hotel stated, he has been avoiding her like the plague.

Miriam dress up attractive and went to the hotel, can I see your menu?

Yes, ma’am.

They handed her the menu.

What is this? they are copying our style, everything is about our hotel, this person must mean business, I need to find him or her out, and I will deal with them personally.

Hello, madam someone greeted her.

How many we serve you?

Oh.. I..i.. I was just checking out the menu, you see I am shopping for  place to hold my seminar, of about 100 guest, I wanted to check out if your price is lesser than the next hotel, because I will be going with the best one, and I hope your food is ok too.

Ohh.. no.. don’t worry about that.. we are the best around here, and it looks like you are celebrity, can we talk in my office? Mr. Tom ask.

Oh.. yes, that will be lovely, I need some privacy anyways.

Hahaha listen, privacy is what we will give to you and your guest.

Really?

Yes, come let’s go to my office.

Miriam went with him, only to find out that he is the really owner of the hotel.

Mr. Tom? Ken shouted, what? I can’t believe this, why is he doing this?

Well, I don’t know, I guess I have to go back there again.

No, you are not going back there, Ben said.

But why?

He might do something bad to you. Ben said.

I know what you are thinking but not to worry, am not going to leave a date Mr. Tom Miriam said.

What? They all shouted.

Ohh.. I didn’t mean to say that, Miriam said.

He is an old man Miriam, you can’t date an old man, I know you. Ben said.

Ok, am sorry for making everyone so excited, the meeting is over, ken said not  wanting Ben and his wife to start a fight.
