Chapter 30 Acquisition
"Boss, Coleman, please calm down. Let me have a talk with him." Amara also interceded and started to
communicate with Bruno in English. She told him that it was because of their arrogance and bias
against Chinese customers that Conrad and Coleman felt like being offended.
However, Bruno turned a deaf ear to her words while claiming how great the restaurant had been under
his leadership.
"I need to issue a letter of complaint against you!" Even Amara, such a kind and tender girl, was
rendered mad by his stubbornness.
"My boss now lives in France. I am sure he will also support me if he knows what I am doing." Bruno
still insisted arrogantly.
However, Conrad suddenly realized that Bruno only worked for someone else instead of owning the
restaurant on his own. While the owner still lived abroad. He really got mad as being offended by such
a staff.
"You are all not welcomed here! Please pay the bill and leave right away!" Bruno warned.
"Are you kidding me? We are here just for dinner! How dare you drive us away!" Coleman stood up to
argue with him.
"Rude Chinese guys! I am going to call the police!" Bruno threatened.
Conrad sneered as he had figured out how to teach him a lesson. He then stopped Coleman, who was
getting mad, and said, "Coleman, there is no need to argue. Let me handle this."
Conrad clicked on the app and started to see the newly updated property section. Soon, he found the
property information about this restaurant.
Francis Restaurant (property right ON SALE), located at No. 12, Xinming Road, BH City, Cover Area:
650 m2, Estimated Price: 9,200,000, Discounted Price: 2 yuan, Discount Credit: 2!
The restaurant was even worth about ten million. Most of the value originated from the premise. And
Conrad also had enough credits to get it.
So Conrad immediately clicked to purchase the property right of this restaurant.
'The property right is being transferred. Estimated Time: 40 seconds. You will then gain the right to
manage all staffs here and also the ownership.' Soon, Conrad saw the notice on the app.
Conrad just asked both of them to calm down and sit down. 40 seconds later, there would be a nice
show.
'Property right GAINED! Congratulation! Now you officially own Francis Restaurant!' Another notice
appeared again.
"Okay, now you are fired!" Conrad stood up and said.
"Oh my god, are you out of your mind? You have no right to make me, the greatest manager of the
Francis Restaurant, resign from this job!" Bruno mocked and also bragged about himself.
Conrad then put the Property Ownership Certificate of the Francis Restaurant, which he just gained, on
the table and showed it in front of Bruno.
"Oh my god, it must be a fake one! I know all Chinese guys are good at making fake certificates!"
Bruno even started to blame all Chinese people.
"You can just call your boss to make sure if it's the fake one! But I am sure you will be fired!" Conrad
said.
Bruno still couldn't believe. He made a call to his boss to confirm. However, it was still wee hours in
France. So his boss was rendered pretty mad when hearing the call.
"Damn you, Bruno! How dare you wake me up! If you call me for nothing, I will kill you!"
Bruno hurried to say, "Boss, I know it sounds really ridiculous. But I had to make it confirmed. A
Chinese guy just took out the ownership certificate for the restaurant and claimed that now he officially
owns it!"
"Impossible, I haven't sold…Oh my god, I just have more than nine million transferred to my back
account and there is even an agreement of property transfer on the bedside table!" The boss kept
exclaiming. But soon he calmed down and continued, "It seems that something incredible happened.
But it is a nice price for me. You know, the business has been declining during the pandemic. I am glad
to have it sold. That's it! Bruno, I am sure that the Francis Restaurant doesn't belong to me from now
on! Now you work for your new boss!"
Bruno was rendered stunned and his phone dropped on the ground. After a while, he finally collected
himself and smiled fawning at Conrad, "Sir, oh no, boss! Please pardon me for my rudeness! I don't
know you have actually owned the restaurant!"
"Fuck off! You are fired! You hate you staying here!" Conrad said coldly.
"Please don't!" Bruno suddenly kneeled down and begged sadly, "I need this well-paid job! I have my
wife and kids to support and also my parents and grandparents who are all old and ill. Besides, I need
to pay the tuitions for all my four kids! I need my salary to live my life!"
Bruno kept saying the stereotypical type of excuse to beg for mercy.
Amara, who had been a kindhearted girl, whispered to Conrad, "Boss, just forgive him this time. He will
be really poor if fired. Besides, you need to pay a big sum of dismissal wage for firing him."Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Conrad thought for a while and agreed. After all, dismissal would be too rude to him. The key point was
to make him realized that he was wrong.
"Okay, you can stay. But now you are demoted to be the doorman because you don't know how to
serve well. Get to the gate to receive customers and address every man you see as Mr. and every lady
you see as Ms. Do remember to say 'Thank you for your patronage, welcome next time!' to every
customer who walked out of the door! Do you understand?" Conrad said sternly.
"Yes, sir!" Bruno nodded. He could do everything he could to keep the job. Actually, he came to China
because he found no job in France.
Conrad still deemed it not enough for punishment. So he bought a suit of uniform for traditional
Chinese waiter on the app—ancient-styled plain suit with a ragged towel on his shoulder.
"Put it on and get to the gate to receive guests!" Conrad then threw him the uniform.
