How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

"No need, Mr. Gu... This is too much..."

As a personal butler in a hotel for more than a year, Xu Ying had certainly received tips, and not a few times at that...

But generally speaking, they were around five hundred, a thousand, and greater amounts were very rare, let alone 10,000...

"Take it, I have something I’d like to discuss with you."

Hearing this, Xu Ying’s hand holding the phone couldn’t help but tremble, and she dared not accept it...

Her heart was in turmoil...

In the past, she had also encountered guests who made special requests of her...

She was well aware that such matters were generally difficult to handle...

If she declined too firmly, she would offend the guest, and facing one with a bad temper, a single complaint, even if she explained things clearly with the company, could lead to certain punishment...

As ridiculous as it was, there was no helping it as high-end hotels all over the world operated this way; they only cared about the customer’s experience, completely disregarding the service staff’s grievances.

Yet, if she declined too softly, it could give the guest an ambiguous hint, leading to troubles afterward...

Thinking of this, Xu Ying quickly made up an excuse, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "I’m sorry, Mr. Gu, I have a husband, and I love him very much."

Gu Heng, who was about to continue speaking, was left with a full head of question marks upon hearing Xu Ying’s response...

???

"What are you talking about? What does your love for your husband have to do with me?" Continue your journey on empire

"Ah? Aren’t you...?"

"What are you thinking? I want to ask if you’re interested in becoming my exclusive personal butler."

While saying this, Gu Heng couldn’t help but roll his eyes at her...

While she was misunderstanding him before, he deliberately acted more serious, but he hadn’t expected this woman to be so full of herself. Despite his restraint, she still thought he wanted to sleep with her.

Although he was a bit of a lecher, that was in the ancient sense of "nature is a lover of food and sex," part of the pursuit of a high-quality life.

He wasn’t some kind of sowing machine that wanted every woman he saw, right?

Hearing Gu Heng’s words, this time, it was Xu Ying who felt embarrassed...

Stammering, she didn’t know how to respond...

Gu Heng didn’t want to dwell on it and went straight to the point, "What’s your monthly salary now?"

Seeing Gu Heng change the subject, Xu Ying breathed a sigh of relief and honestly replied, "Our salary is dispensed quarterly, a basic salary of 60,000 for one quarter plus performance bonuses... roughly around 30,000 a month."

"So that’s an annual salary of around 400,000?"

"About that."

"I’ll offer you a 50% raise, an annual salary of 600,000 to work for me, how about that?"

After saying "work for me," Gu Heng frowned, feeling the phrase wasn’t quite right, and rephrased, "I’ll give you 600,000 a year to be my exclusive personal butler, how does that sound?"

Seeing Xu Ying’s hesitant look, Gu Heng spoke up again, "You don’t have to worry about instability. We can include a priority clause in the employment contract for three years, where, as long as you don’t make any principle mistakes, if I need to terminate the contract unilaterally, I will pay you all the remaining compensation at once.

You can have the contract notarized.

This means, even if you work for me for only a month and I need to unilaterally end the contract, I will still pay you 1.8 million." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Why hadn’t his invitation to Chen Hao been successful?

Afterwards, Gu Heng thought about it; it wasn’t that Chen Hao doubted his spending power, but rather Chen Hao didn’t want to give up a stable environment.

Even though he had offered to double Chen Hao’s salary, with all his wealth, Gu Heng was still just an individual, and in terms of credibility, he couldn’t compare to a large hotel chain like Hyatt Group...

This time, with the invitation, Gu Heng became smarter.

He directly penned the word "stability" into the contract.

If his own level of trustworthiness wasn’t high, the law’s level of trustworthiness should be, right?

And sure enough, as Gu Heng finished speaking, Xu Ying’s eyes flickered, clearly intrigued...

But Xu Ying was no longer a naive girl, not about to let sudden fortune cloud her judgment, and she couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Gu, could you tell me why? Why choose me?"

Gu Heng didn’t hide anything and smilingly looked at her, "I had previously invited the Housekeeping Manager from Hangcheng Park Hyatt Hotel, but unfortunately, he didn’t respond to me."

"But there are specialized companies that hire personal butlers..."

Gu Heng laughed and countered, "Do you think those butlers provided by those companies are as professional as people like you with a long history in the service industry?

I’m acquainted with the ones you mentioned, and given our country’s situation, you’re aware that sectors like personal secretaries and personal butlers aren’t systemized.

So, those people are mixed, the majority just undergo some training and then get to work. Hiring them is almost like a lottery, it’s fine if you draw a good one, but if you end up with a half-baked one, dismissing and rehiring is too troublesome.

I prefer stability and don’t like gambling with odds. I’ve experienced your service and feel assured about it.

So do you understand what I’m saying?"

Xu Ying nodded, then once again met Gu Heng’s gaze, "So, Mr. Gu, is the offer you just made me for real?"

"Of course not."

Xu Ying: "???"

Is he playing with her?

Seeing her confused expression, Gu Heng couldn’t help but laugh, "Those are just the basic terms. If you do well, I won’t be stingy with bonuses.

To speak a bit arrogantly, I’m not lacking in money.

So I need absolutely top-notch service, and as long as you can satisfy me when dealing with my personal affairs, rewards and salary increases are both on the table. But you should be clear on the premise."
