2 weeks from our first reunion we were once again reunited. But now we are in our headquarters!
A week ago I found that a couple who lived 3 blocks from our house would be going back to their hometown and was selling their house. Their house was medium size and had 2 floors and a basement, was sufficient for now to serve as the HQ. Making a slight reform so that it looked more professional, our HQ was ready by the end of the same week we bought.
Right now we are in the meeting room. It contains a large glass table for 30 people. The chairs we were sit were similar to those I could see in offices in my past life, but instead of steel that doesn't exist here, I opted for a very light and durable wood.
Besides the 12 people present in the last meeting, Mary is also here.
She changed from being personal maid to personal assistant. Now besides all the work she done as a personal maid, she also helps me with some business issues and accounts. I should probably raise her salary.
Note to self: raise Mary paycheck and feed her with chocolate cake.
"Okay guys. I have the name of our Conglomerate. Will be Imperium Pacem. IP for short. Our symbol will be the lilium flower, so the emblems will be a lilium with IP engraved in the front. Here is the design, what you guys think?"
I showed them one of the emblems that I already ordered to be made. Is a small lilium flower painted in black with IP in golden on the center.
"Can we customize ours?"
"Sure. But only managers have this privilege"
"What material will the emblems be made of?"
"Depends on the emblem, besides the platinum all the other will be made of iron and be painted. The platinum will be made of silver and some other precious material to get the platinum color"
Putting the emblem in Mary's hand I urged them to begin their report.
"Okay, Group 1 your report"
Liam got up from his chair. They always leave the responsibility to him when they can, such a bad habit.
"All things for the cafe are ready. For the beauty and fashion products only half of the products commissioned are ready. Iris and Sarah got 40 and 50 persons respectively to work under their command either on the line of production or serving the client. We already assembled the security crew. The Royal Bank agreed with our proposal, they will have 3% of the fees. We will start the employees training next week. Also the building is 3/4 done, we are only waiting for the glass work to be delivered and installed, so that we can cleanup and put the decorations. It should be done by next week. We can open 2 weeks from now"
"Good job! I never thought you will manage to get this many people"
"Is all thanks to the benefits offered by Miss. Like sick leave, pregnancy leave, annual holiday and the black membership, we actually had so many applicants that we had to filter the best ones"
Right, people here don't have the leave policy. If you miss a day of work is either discount on your paycheck or you will be dismissed.
"Group 2"
Scratching his head in embarrassment Daniel got up and delivered me a list a dossier.
"Hi! Here is the list of the employees we got... most of the people are from Spero though. We have preliminary menus, Sophie will be more focused on meat dishes while I will be more focused on pastas. We will charge 70 copper coins at lunch and 84 copper coins at dinner. We also found better to charge the drinks apart"
"I'm sure that 80% of our employees will be from Spero Dani. It makes sense to charge them apart. How is the restaurant reform?"
"Is already done, we actually can still open this week"
"Really? So, we will make a week of promotion, something like the first 10 customers each day don't need to pay. Think of something, you can open the day after tomorrow. Reserve one of the rooms for my family please"
"All five of you?"
"Although I don't know if Niisama will go, sure, for 5. I'll be going at lunch and spend the day there with you, but they'll only go for dinner"
"Understood"
"What about Group 3?"
"We will charge 1 silver per kilo. Here is how we calculated. We chose to experiment 4 types of weekly menu in the first month, the favorite ones will be chosen to the final weekly menu. We also thought it would be nice if each day we serve a chef's specialty. They would have smaller portions than the other servings. Also we thought that every time you got a kilo, you would gain a free cup with juice"
"Well, I like your idea, but 1 silver is too much. Put at 90 coppers, although we will not gain much in a short term it will prove to be better in the long run. How is the reform?"
"The room for the food and the kitchen are not ready yet. We need a week to open."
"Okay, you can sit. Do the same procedure as Dani and Sophie, make some kind of promotion in the first week to attract customers. Report when you will open and reserve a room for my family"
"Yes Miss"
"What about Group 4?"
My English tea room. Although I love the Japanese one, because the English one pass an aristocratic air that matches this country, most of the people chose it. It will have 4 private rooms, a room for the nobles that will have some couches and small table, a room for the noblewomen with the same design as the previous room and some books (most romance ones), a room for the nobleman that will have books and a place for smoking, the room for commoners that is exactly the same as the nobles+books, and the room that is a common area.
I know segregation is bad, but here the nobles have a very high sense of superiority. And I am not strong enough to fight this yet.
Because I wanted many rooms was kind of hard to find a building, but we eventually found a small mansion in the central area of the city. Luckily the mansion had a huge garden, so we opted to have some tables with a decorated parasol in some parts of the garden.
"Here is the employee list, since all of them are from Spero, they know the tea etiquette, so we don't need to worry about training them. We already bought the books and the tea sets are already done. Because the mansion was in good condition we did not have to do much. It can open this week too. We also found a that the garden has a part that could serve as place to showcase poems, songs or having literature discussions. We thought it would be interest if every week we promoted some type of literary event, what you think Miss?"
"I think that is great idea! I will send invitations for the nobles for two days from now. So the 'Fame ' will only open 4 days from now ok? Great work guys! You are all dismissed. Don't forget to get your money with Sebastian! See you guys later!"
I can't believe that my conglomerate will finally be created!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
