Chapter 378 A Clever Pounce on the Street
After Gao Leng texted Jian Xiaodan, he stood outside the main entrance of the hotel and secretly watched as he pounced on the street.
The elevator door opened. Just as Pu Jie was about to walk in, his phone rang. He took the phone and looked in the direction of the counter. He hung up the phone and said something to Sister-in-law Diao before striding towards the counter.
He took off the backpack behind him, took out a stack of thick Renminbi from it, and threw it on the counter without saying a word.
The hotel where Huang Cong contracted for his birthday was famous in Hainan, and the sea view was the most eye-catching. Gaoleng had previously opened two standard rooms, paying 100,000 yuan, 60,000 yuan, and 40,000 yuan as deposit.
Don’t be surprised, the standard room is also better than other hotels’ VIP rooms.
The VIP room in this hotel starts at 78,000 yuan a night. It’s expensive in terms of sea view and security. Because of the sea view, the VIP room in this hotel has never been photographed before. At this time, it has been completely booked by Huang Cong.
Gaoleng walked over quickly and shouted, “Pounce on the street.” His gaze fell on the pile of RMB he had placed on the counter. He saw that the RMB was still tied up with special bank paper, brand-new.
“Where’s the renewal fee?” As Gaoleng said that, he took out his bank card and threw it on the counter. “Brush mine, you don’t have enough.”
Pu Jie scratched his hair and sighed with emotion, “Living for a night is so expensive, not everyone can do this job. If we can catch it…”
When the clerk at the counter heard this, he raised his head in unison and looked at Gao Leng and Pu Jie with caution.
Pu Jie realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut up. He was at a loss for what to do, and his face turned a little red.
“Reporter?” The waiter’s face stiffened. After looking up and down coldly, he said, “President Huang’s birthday party has a professional reporter team. Can you show me the invitation letter, please?”
“Yes, please show me the invitation letter. We are a high-end hotel. Please cooperate.” Another waiter’s gaze swept across Sister-in-law Diao, frowning slightly.
Paparazzi prevention is a compulsory course for hotel staff.
Gao Leng chuckled and took out his press card and handed it to the waiter, “I didn’t bring the invitation letter. I brought the press card.”
“The press card is not enough. According to the rules, it must be an invitation letter.”
“Yes, sir. I’m sorry, Mr. Huang contracted the hotel…”
The waiter’s words came to an abrupt halt after he casually took a glance at the cold press card.
“Gaoleng, is he the reporter who blew up Teng Jiazhi and Wen Kai, and is now planning President Huang’s birthday party?” The waiter was still young and knew the entertainment gossip. He recognized Gaoleng as soon as he saw his name.
“It should be, but I didn’t expect it to be so young. I thought it was an uncle, and he’s so handsome!”
After whispering for less than ten seconds, the two of them immediately respectfully handed their ID cards to Gao Leng and politely brought over a few cups of tea. They said very politely, “Hello, reporter Gao. Just now, there was some neglect. Please wait a moment, and I will go through the formalities for you.”
Gao Leng nodded.
Pu Jie’s eyes were filled with pride. He raised his head slightly and was much more confident.
“Hello, reporter Gao. According to President Huang’s request, your fee is free. Furthermore, your room has been upgraded to a VIP room. Please sign your name.” The waiter smiled and handed over the information. Gaoleng glanced at it and signed it.
“Why aren’t they all upgraded to VIP rooms? How stingy.” Pu Jie muttered discontentedly.
When Gao Leng heard this, he smiled faintly and said to Pu Jie, “That’s a good question. Think about why you didn’t upgrade to a VIP room. If you don’t think about it, ask the old man.”
Pu Jie hurriedly nodded. Sister-in-law Diao, who was standing behind him, also nodded in agreement.
Gaoleng pretended not to know the details. He pointed at Sister-in-law Diao and asked, “May I ask who you are?”
“Hello boss, hello boss. Excuse me, excuse me, I’m from the Old Diao Clan.” Hanging Sister-in-law hurriedly bent down, knowing that she was a little nervous.
“Sister-in-law! Aiyo, look at me. I was careless, wasn’t I?” Gaoleng hurriedly extended his hand enthusiastically.
Sister-in-law Diao looked at the hand he reached out, and immediately reached out as well. However, his movements were very stiff. With a grip, Sister-in-law Diao’s hand was very rough.
“The old man is hanging from it. Pu Jie, did you pick him up?” As Gao Leng walked, he said, “Looks like you are young and very careful. You actually brought my sister-in-law here. That’s also true. Sister-in-law must be very worried. Did you issue an invoice for the plane ticket? I’ll report it to you later.”
‘”There’s no need to report the plane tickets. This can’t go through the company’s procedures, right? This is my sister-in-law. I should pay for it. She’s worried that I’ll pick her up as soon as I get out of the police station. She’s also afraid that the police station will ask her family to sign it.” Pu Jie hurriedly replied, but there was a flash in his eyes.
The attendant led the way. As soon as the elevator opened, the attendant pressed down on the VIP floor and the ordinary floor.
“I’m going to the ordinary floor. There’s something I need to do. You don’t have to follow me.” Said Gaoleng. The waiter hurriedly pulled herself out of the elevator. As the elevator door closed, she bowed respectfully.
“Boss, I know why Huang Cong only gave you a VIP room.” Pu Jie suddenly spoke confidently and confidently.
“Oh?” Gaoleng turned to look at him.
“Because VIP rooms are all big shots and their identities have to be verified. If people like us can enter, then big shots’ privacy will not be guaranteed.” Pu Jie said.
“How do you know that the identity of a VIP customer is to be verified? Where did you find out?”
“Because when the waiter walked behind us just now, I saw that she had reminded the waiter on the VIP floor with the Mac. I guessed it.”
Gao Leng nodded his head in admiration and looked at Pu Jie once again.
Pu Jie’s educational background was the same as Old Hanging’s. He wasn’t very high, but he was very clever and intelligent.
It’s just…
There was no discount on this round-trip ticket. This was more than 10,000 yuan. Just now, when he went to the front desk to renew the fare, he casually took out 10,000 yuan. It was neat and tidy, not even removing the seal.
He didn’t even frown.
He read his resume coldly and drove a car with the old man for a year. Before that, he worked as a waiter in a small kitchen.
It doesn’t make sense for him to do such a big thing.
Moreover, the old man and fatty’s bags were either carried with them or kept in the room. Even if Lin Gao bought the waiter and secretly entered the room to put drugs, how could he just leave them out of the way?
“Yes, not bad, very smart.” Gaoleng said approvingly and took out a recording pen from his pocket. “This is very important. My pocket is shallow. Help me put it away.”
Pu Jie hurriedly took it and casually took off the backpack on his shoulder. He unzipped the zipper and carefully put the recording pen into his inner pocket.
Gaoleng glanced at it and saw that the bag was red.
It’s RMB.
