Chapter 101 Eight Hundred Million
The benefits here are very good. The employees live in hotel rooms here, food and drinks are all free, and there are also shopping cards for major shopping malls.
Another major feature of the hotel's location is that it is right next to the casino.
Shen Sangsang had heard of this casino before. This casino was connected to the Caspian Hotel and had everything from food and drink to luxury shopping.
This Caspian and the casino are both properties of the Shen Group, and this Caspian branch was opened specifically for the casino.
Shen Sangsang heard these things from her colleagues when they had a staff meal together in the evening.
At first she didn't quite understand why the hotel was connected to the casino. It was only after listening to her colleagues that she figured out the reason.
This time, after the group built the hotel connecting to the casino, it also planned to build a world-class water park in a nearby water area for integration.
Shen Sangsang didn't know what was located here. She only felt that there were a lot of security guards and bodyguards standing in various places in the hotel. Tourists came and went, and the atmosphere was a mixture of oppression and extravagance.
For so many years, Shen Sangsang has always stayed with Old Lady Shen in the Shen family and has never traveled far. The farthest place she has been to is probably the university in South City.
This was her first time in such a complicated area.
After she finished her meal with her colleagues in the evening, she returned to the hotel to rest. After passing through the hotel lobby, she subconsciously looked outside. The lights outside were quite complicated, making the lights here seem unfathomable. For some reason, she was a little afraid to walk around.
So she returned to her room early in the morning.
After arriving at the room, she couldn't sleep. After taking a shower, she sat on the balcony and looked at the scenery outside.
It was clearly very late, but the lights here were as bright as day, and there were all kinds of people downstairs.
Some were shopping, some were having a late-night snack, and some were coming out of the casino.
There were men and women, but their faces were not clear.
Shen Sangsang heard the sound of the sea water. She stood by the bed for a while and then returned to bed.
…
Zhou Shiran felt extremely bored during those days, and his mind kept wandering to the Caspian Hotel, but he just didn't want to flatter her ugly face.
After having fun with some younger brothers for a few days, I found it increasingly boring.
His younger brother could see that she was absent-minded and seemed to have little interest in everything. One day, in the billiard hall, his younger brother came up to him and asked, "Brother Zhou, are you in love?"
When Zhou Shiran heard what his younger brother said, he cursed, "What the hell are you talking about?"
Seeing him holding a cell phone, the younger brother said with a smile: "Aren't you thinking about your sister-in-law these days? What are you thinking about? Waiting for your sister-in-law's call?"
Although Zhou Shiran was unwilling to admit that he was thinking about that woman, he had to admit in his heart that he was indeed bewitched by that woman.
He picked up the wine glass on the table and took a big gulp.
Seeing him like this, the younger brother said, "If you miss her, then just go find her."
Zhou Shiran glanced at his younger brother and asked, "You want me to be a bootlicker?"
"As long as you can get the person, what's the point of being a licker? Licking the person is the real skill, Brother Zhou."
When Zhou Shiran heard this, the expression on his face became serious for a few seconds.
That's right, isn't it just a woman? Since he is willing to play this game with her, then he is really not afraid of not being able to win.
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and got up from the sofa. When he was about to go to Caspian to look for someone, his phone rang again.
The moment Zhou Shiran saw the phone in his hand, he stared at the number on it.
His expression changed slightly, and in just a few seconds, he quickly found a quiet place to answer the call.
The person on the other end was saying something, but he remained silent.
After a long while, I replied to the person on the other end: "Okay, I understand."
After the call ended, Zhou Shiran held the phone and thought for a few seconds, then said to the younger brother behind him: "I have something to do and need to be out for a while, so you guys take care of it during this time."
Seeing that he looked hurried, I was about to ask something when Zhou Shiran had already left my sight.
He couldn't go to the Caspian Hotel because he had to do some business, so he drove past Caspian, but in the end his car went to the airport.
…
On the day Shen Sangsang officially started working at the Caspian branch in City B, she and Chen Lili inspected the public areas, including the sound, color, and smell, to ensure a clean and tidy environment.
Chen Lili patrolled very carefully, leaving no blind spot untouched. Even if there was a flying insect in the corner, she would call people to check it out, fearing that insect eggs might have built a nest.
She followed her and watched her communicate with the people around her. She felt that Chen Lili was very versatile and thought to herself that she was worthy of the position of Manager Caspian.
She then assigned her to follow up on reservations alone, analyze and control room flow.
Before, she was doing odd jobs, but gradually, she was allowed to get involved in some more core work.
Shen Sangsang naturally tried her best to do what she asked, even though she didn't understand a lot in this regard.
It is difficult to control the flow of customers here. After all, there are too many people here. She keeps negotiating and communicating with the staff in the hotel lobby.
It was not until noon, when it was time for lunch, that she finally got off work at the invitation of a colleague and left with her colleague.
While having dinner in the restaurant, some colleagues were chatting. They were talking about casino gossip, saying that a big shot lost a full 800 million in the casino last night.
They naturally spoke these words in a low voice.
When Shen Sangsang heard the discussions, she clenched the spoon in her hand slightly, and then she looked at the colleagues around her.
A few colleagues who were unaware of the situation asked, "Who lost 800 million?"
"It seems like he's the CEO of a listed company."
"Oh my god, 800 million! Will the casino's backend be paralyzed?"
"Eight hundred million is just a small amount of money in this place."
"Should we go to the casino and take a look?"
Shen Sangsang and the others were only responsible for the hotel area. The casino was managed by specialized personnel, so they rarely went there.
Someone responded, "We'd better avoid places like that. Don't you know? The son of our group's second-largest boss committed suicide by jumping off a building in a casino abroad. It was in the news a few years ago, and it happened in his own casino."
Regarding those gossips, Shen Sangsang kept eating, but the spoon in her hand obviously slowed down.
And the discussions continued: "How could our place lose? Was it set up by someone?"
"I heard he was gambling with some classmates, not at a public table. The money lost that night was tens of billions. This 800 million is nothing."
"Oh my god, so many?"
"Really? But what does the Shen family lack the most? Of course it's money. These billions are nothing. This casino alone is like a money-printing machine every day."
Chen Lili's voice suddenly interrupted: "What are you talking about?"
As soon as Chen Lili's voice came out, the people who were talking were shocked and their eyes instantly turned to Chen Lili.
Chen Lili's expression was quite cold: "You guys dare to discuss anything now, don't you?"
Those people all kept their lips tightly shut and dared not speak.
