Chapter 647: Snatching Rooms

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Expansion was of paramount importance, and the place where Little Lucky Star began made its competitors’ collective jaw drop. This Tita Star trip had also become a life-and-death “battle” for Little Lucky Star. Little Lucky Star’s elites, the Yan father and son representatives, turned out in full force.

After a week…

The Yan Xiaosu father and son team had arrived on Titatitan Star. Alighting from the spaceship, they were taken aback by the vast airport.

In comparison to Earth’s airport which had not changed much in 50 years, Titatitan Star’s modern airport was built with techniques and specifications that were the most cutting edge in spaceport technology.

The part that had already been constructed and was in use could already be regarded as the most developed airport in Aslan. It stretched further than the eye could see, and still much was in construction. The design aimed to be the number one port in the Milky Way.

The well-arranged environment caused Old Yan to let out a sigh of relief. This had been an intense battlefield just not long before. Although he knew that peace had been established, but his impression was not so easily changed, and he had still privately worried. He had always done business only on Earth. Once outside, if anything happened, he had no one to turn to, and he had not known if Wang Zheng’s connections were dependable.

Yan Xiaosu looked quizzically around. This was the place where Wang Zheng had labored? Along the way, they saw other tourists. After just 100m, they saw a few personnel related to large financial magnates.

The accompanying members from the Little Lucky Star Group were staring about curiously as well. Besides the refreshing feel of a new environment, they felt a deep sense of anxiety. Many were leaving the Solar System for the first time, and for some, their first time away from Earth.

Although they were slightly overwhelmed, but there was a point to agree on – among all the investors on Titatitan Star, Little Lucky Star’s entourage was the smallest. Including the 2 bodyguards, they were merely 8, although they each pulled their weight.

“Departure. Destination, Ivy Hotel.” Yan Xiaosu immediately calmed the mood of his group. There was no need to compare with others.

Ivy Hotel, a 6-star hotel, and the most luxurious on the Titatitan Star. It was still refurbishing towards the 7-star accolade. Rome was not built in a day, and the Milky Way Hotel Star Rating was the same. In truth, their service and facilities had already reached the 7-star standard.

The only question was that this hotel did not accept reservations from outside Titatitan Star. This could not be helped. At present, Titatitan Star laid a heavy hand on business groups. Some business groups had reserved a room, and were stopped at customs, barred from entry, while the room had already been prepared and waiting. It had been an embarrassment.

There was no choice but to bar foreign reservations, to keep the rooms for people who would use them.

Little Lucky Star arrived excitedly at the hotel. A 6-star hotel, and 7-star service. Besides Old Father Yan, the rest would be enjoying such things for the first time. Normal business trips would peak at 5-stars. On Earth, such displays were unnecessary to prove one’s ability, but now they were outside, and when one was unknown, where one stayed, what one ate and dressed in all played a part in the impression of one’s company power.

Since they were here, they would stay at the best.

And the Ivy Hotel was indeed worth the stay!

On arrival, the Little Lucky Star entourage was mesmerized by the huge hotel looming before them. It was towering and majestic, in the Titatitan style. The main entrance was like the magnified version of an old Roman church, but with a huge stone statue of the Tita people’s totem. It had an exotic flavor to it.

What was even more spectacular was the main door, which stood over 10m high. One could almost drive a mecha in. Clearly, this had been designed with the Titatitans in mind. Even if they would not come, such facilities were necessary.

Yan Xiaosu and his team were excited, and even Old Yan gave a smile, pleased with the place.

Happily making their way into the splendor raised their spirits, and the ushers were warm. “Welcome to the Ivy Hotel.”

Reaching the front desk of the hotel, the reception girls were passionate, with their dainty pale faces and sweet smiles. “Welcome. Is there anything I can help you with?”

Everything went well, until it was time to register…

The reception girl had a troubled expression. “Sir, I am sorry. Because the room demand has been high, according to your status, the hotel can only offer you one apartment and one standard room. Would you still wish to continue with your stay?”

Yan Xiaosu was shocked. They had 8, and 2 were girls. With just one apartment and one standard room, how could they fit?

“What standard is this? It’s our first time here.” Yan Xiaosu asked.

The reception patiently explained. “Each company in the Milky Way Hotel Register has a status. But your company has had little in this regard, and has yet to enter the Register. Therefore, we can only offer you the minimum quota. My deepest apologies.”

“Is there some way? You could check again, perhaps some have let their rooms.” Old Yan had come over with a wide smile. He knew that opening with a smile could do no harm. Old Yan, of course, knew about this ranking, which was divided from 1-star to 7-star customers, just as the hotels themselves were. The higher the star rating of the company, the better service they would get anywhere, especially the big customers. Little Lucky Star? What a laugh, their meagre custom was not even enough to participate.

“Sir, my deepest apologies. You know our situation on Tita Star. To external guests, we can only follow the Milky Way Register. I see your party is not small. Perhaps you could consider another hotel, their facilities and service are equally excellent.”

The front desk staff spoke professionally and nicely, leaving Old Yan with nothing to say. Perhaps this was why this hotel had the best reputation.

Just then, about 10 people walked in the main door, directly marching up to the hotel front desk. “We are from the Tadinger Group. This is our vice chairman Jasper.”

A sylph-like secretary cut across Yan Xiaosu and company, placing a card on the front desk. Her skin was perfect, and she was maybe 20 years of age. She wore gold-wire full framed spectacles, clearly an ornament, but it made her look especially professional. Yet for some reason Yan Xiaosu felt an attraction exuding from her.

But seeing that Vice Chairman Jasper behind, Yan Xiaosu understood. When there was work, the secretary would do. When there was no work, do the secretary. Life was good!

Immediately, all the front desk staff stood up. This was a high class card, not just any ordinary cash card. A black card, with a unique edge. This was a 6-star customer, and known within the entire Milky Way.

A front desk was nothing but charm. “Humble greetings, esteemed Mr Jasper, sir. A warm welcome to our Ivy Hotel. May I enquire as to your room requirements?”

“Let me see what rooms you have.” Jasper mildly replied, casting a glance at Yan Xiaosu, who was in his way.

From the side, Old Yan pulled Yan Xiaosu back. Although Yan Xiaosu was a little miffed, but he was still a businessman, and he understood how big clients were treated.

“Alright, please wait a moment.” The front desk respectfully replied.

In an instant, an electronic screen was placed in front of the female secretary. “All presently available suites are here.”

Jasper gave the female secretary’s butt a casual slap, and she scooted to make way for him. “Chairman, look. There are a few presidential suites, with a great location and position to appreciate Tita Star’s view.”

Each hotel’s best rooms were definitely the presidential suites on the highest floor.

Jasper was not yet 30, and he had come to Tita Star this time on the pretext of inspecting the construction process, although he was simply here for a good time.”

“Are your best rooms all here? Why is there still one more floor above it? Is my status too low for that?” Jasper asked.

Once a client reached 5-stars and above, there was nothing held from them. 7-star clients only got better service. 5-stars and above were all huge financial groups that could not be given offense at any cost.

The front desk girl was polite, replying with a smile. “Mr Jasper, that floor is specially set aside for the esteemed Governor Mu Sen, and reserved for special guests. It is not open to public, and no one has stayed in it yet. Please forgive us.”

“Oh. Give me a presidential suite, and make it the best location you have. A normal suite each for the rest.”

Although it was their first time here, but they knew the circumstances of Tita Star. The place was 80% special meetings for VIPs, and although the financial groups were strong, but they still did not have enough status.

“No problem. Please wait a moment.” She kept her brilliant smile. This was a huge sum. A 6-star client was a 6-star client after all.”

Jasper hooked an arm around the female secretary’s waist, with an unconcerned look. “The high speed and horizon here is great. You’ll love it in a while.”

Her face reddened, a little embarrassed by the public setting. But she was smart enough, changing the topic to those still clustered beside. “These people are amusing. Non-star customers daring to set foot in here? Don’t they know that those below 3-stars don’t even stand a chance to stay here?”

“Bumpkins entering the city always try to show off.” Jasper said conceitedly. He had seen more than enough of their kind, wishing to show off their paltry wealth the moment they had 2 coins to rub together. But compared to the true aristocrats, they were honestly beggars.

Jasper paid no attention to Yan Xiaosu and the rest, and was unconcerned, but Yan Xiaosu’s face turned beet red. They had wanted to improve the reputation of Little Lucky Star a little, but now their dignity had taken a blow instead. At one side, Old Yan held Yan Xiaosu back.

The hardest things were leaving safe ground, conducting business, and asking for favors. Little Lucky Star managed fine on Earth, but they were nothing here, especially faced with the Milky Way level financial groups, which Tadinger happened to be. Even Old Yan, who only worked in the Solar System, had heard of them.

“Forget it, two rooms is not enough. Let’s find another place.” Old Yan said. Who would have thought that the moment they left the Solar System, they would be reduced to nothing again.

Although Yan Xiaosu was resentful, but he was helpless as well. With one last belligerent stare at the female secretary’s long legs, they packed their suitcases and left.

“Babe, where are they from?” Jasper lightly tapped the counter, smiling towards the front desk staff.
