As for Yue Yi, after leaving school with Wu Tao, he got into a taxi and directly went to the five-star hotel owned by Zhongxing Society, the Zhongxing Inn.
The two of them got off the car and stood at the entrance of the resplendent hotel.
Normally, only big boss level people would come here. Even the lowest cost would be over eight hundred.
”Brother Yi, are we really going to have a big meal here?” Wu Tao counted the money in his hand and said without much confidence, ”How many dishes can I eat with this little money?”
”Who cares? They're already here. Aren't they going in?” Yue Yi said snappily.
”Then what if we don't have enough money?” Wu Tao asked.
Yue Yi said, ”I don't have enough money to make up for it.”
”Do you still have money on you?”
”Nope.”
”…”
The two of them hesitated for a while, but eventually entered the hotel together and called for a room.
When the waiter ordered the menu, Wu Tao was dumbfounded. In the private room of this hotel, the lowest consumption rate was two thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan. The total amount of money they had on them was only around two thousand and three hundred.
Looking at the price of the dishes on the menu, which even a dish of vegetables cost one hundred and twenty-one dishes, Wu Tao did not dare to order anymore and handed the menu to Yue Yi, ”Brother Yi, it's better if you order it.”
Yue Yi, however, did not hold back. He took the most expensive menu and ordered twenty dishes. After adding them up, the total price was more than twenty thousand yuan.
As he watched the waiter leave, Wu Tao fearfully grabbed Yue Yi and said: ”Brother Yi, do you know how much you ordered? I think we should at least have a meal of at least twenty thousand yuan. Where did we get all that money from? ”
”Don't worry about it. I'll pay the bill in the end.” Yue Yi was determined to bleed from his Zhongxing Society today. At the very least, in order to help him buy the hundred thousand dollars he needed for his safety, he had to get it back.
”Sit down first, I'm going out to the bathroom.” Yue Yi told Wu Tao to sit down, then he left the room. When he reached the lobby of the hotel, he came to the elevator. Usually, there would be a floor plan near the elevator.
He did find it after a brief search.
The markings on the map were very detailed. What was on the first floor, what was on the second floor, and what was on the third floor.
There were a total of 18 floors in the Zhongxing Hotel. The bottom 3 floors were where the dining and entertainment activities took place. For example, they ate on the first floor, massaged on the second floor, and swam.
He followed the blueprint all the way to the eighth floor. When he saw the building, he purposely looked at a room called ”Manager's Finance Room”.
When he was at school this afternoon, he had wanted to think through the details of the operation today. He had already memorized the floor plan after taking a look at it.
Then he passed a remote transport corridor, saw the fire alarm on the wall, and made a mental note.
He knew the location of the financial room. In the entire hotel, there were only two places that had money. One was the front desk, the other was the treasury.
With someone standing guard at the front desk, it was impossible for him to get the money, so he could only try to get something from the treasury.
And what if there was someone in the Treasury?
Seeing the fire alarm, he thought of a solution. If he pressed the button on this device, it would definitely cause a commotion. At that time, the hotel leadership will definitely come out to control the situation. That's when Yue Yi can take the opportunity to move to the Finance Department to take the lead.
As soon as he made up his mind, he didn't press the fire alarm. It was because he had just been seen by someone when the alarm rang. Someone must have suspected him.
Thus, he deliberately made a trip to the toilet before returning to the private room.
