The Strongest Businessman

Chapter 18 18: Breakthrough! Perfection!

The new employees of Gardenford Restaurant finally calmed down their "out of this world thinking". Dylan explained to them the technicalities of the contract. The contract shook the employees even more when they heard this.

"The salary will increase depending on the performance and service rendered by the employee to the customers..."

"Huh? Is this true, sir Dylan?" Dylan's new employees almost simultaneously asked.

"Yes. Is there a problem?" Dylan spoke.

"Uh, no, sir. But how does the performance of an employee be evaluated?" A man named Jay questioned.

"Oh, that? I was just about to discuss it to you. An employee's performance will be evaluated by me and the customers themselves." Dylan replied.

"The customer's?" The employees exclaimed.

"Yes, they will evaluate you with an evaluation form that I will entrust to you to make as your first task. Each one of you will make a total of 30 evaluation forms which has your name written on it. The parameters for the evaluation of employee performance and service are: Attitude, Interpersonal Relations, Degree of Skill, and Customer Satisfaction. They will evaluate in a scale of 1 to 10. If you have a rating of 7 from at least 10 customers, you will have one fold greater salary. If you have 8, two fold greater salary. If you have 9, you will have three fold. If you have 9.5, you will have four fold. If you have 9.8, you would have five fold. But if you get a perfect rating, you will receive tenfold salary and not only that, you are to be directly promoted to a higher position."

"It's that simple?!" The employees were shocked. 'Is this job real? Why does it feel like it's? just a dream?'

" If you will it to be simple, then it will. If you will it to be hard, then it will." Dylan spoke wisely.

"Yes, sir!" The employees excitedly said. They couldn't help but tremble in excitement. There salary is still able to increase! They would do anything just to not be fired with this kind of job which has such a generous boss.

Dylan smiled because of this. Because this was the reaction, he was aiming his employees to have. He developed this type of method back when he was in Earth. This method targets the necessities of a human and human greed. What does people need most in any world? What ignites greed and passion most? It is money! Dylan planned to use this very nature of humans to provide greater performance from his employees within a short amount of time.

This would also drive his newly acquired employees to try learning more for the sake of getting a raise. This would also imply that they would work just as Dylan predicted them to be.

When Dylan executed such a method back in Earth, his employees became more motivated to better their performance in their works. Even the most unproductive people in his company, started working better than they used to. Although there was situations, wherein his employees forced costumers to evaluate them greatly, he simply fired them for doing so. He knew such a situation might happen at moments of desperation and extreme greed. So he strictly prohibited:

"None shall coerce their customer to evaluate them with high remarks, else I will terminate his contract immediately and have him fired! Am I understood?!" With an indifferent expression in his face, Dylan prohibited. Hinting that if they do so, he would mercilessly fire them without a shadow of doubt.

*Yes, sir!" The employees knew that it was just fair to prohibit them to do so because it is part of being an ethical business. If a customer dislikes a certain matter, of course, the workers will be unable to do anything about is because it is the freedom of opinion of the customer to perceive different matters. The same way other way around, if the consumer, finds it likeable there would be no reason why he or she would not rate it highly.

"Okay, so let me finish discussing the contracts then..." Dylan continued.

After several minutes, Dylan finally finished discussing and ordered his workers to work with their forms. After an hour , they then were finally able to finish 15 evaluation forms which they would gift to the consumers. It was already approaching night as the sky accentuates the setting of the sun. From Gardenford Restaurant, the sky looked gorgeous while the three moons were further accentuated by the bluish hue covering the skies.

The crowd was mesmerized by this scene as they felt they were witnessing a natural phenomenon occurring here. The sky became contrast with one another but it formed a painting like scenery in their very eyes. They would never had thought that such an inconspicuous place such as this would have such a scene to impart to them.

"Okay, it's fast approaching night which means supper will be the next battle we are about to face so get ready in approximately 40 minutes. So all girls, please prepare dresses with a matching apron on your lower extremities then proceed to cleaning the whole area while all boys help me with chopping wood first. Understood?" Dylan commanded them as he separates them in a group in order to maximize time.

He delegated that the girls change first and clean. Because of three reasons: First, it was not because he discriminated girls but it was because he knew that most men are not as good as cleaning as ladies ,whom are meticulous with every detail, would be. Second, men are more suitable with dirty work compared to girls.

Lastly, all of this girls were beauties so when the costumers arrive and see them on their uniforms, they would be attracted to them. Uniforms were legendary attires that would cause anyone to love them especially with beauties wearing? them. They would cause a commotion that would incite greater consumer population later on.

He knew that costumers would arrive while the ladies are cleaning. A scene that more than 15 ladies wearing apron while cleaning a restaurant could only be described as heavenly. As a die-hard Otaku, Dylan felt his blood boil because it is one of an otaku's dream to catch a glimpse of beautiful scene. He also knew that the girls would be surprised and would bashfully greet them out of not knowing what to do.

He smirked because he knew this would give a positive impact on both man or woman, child or old. Such an ingenious plan, Dylan truly deserved to be called the greatest businessman of Earth.

After a while, the were now able to reach the woods. He delegated the boys to group themselves by threes and started to chop. The boys were shocked at how strong and proffecient? Dylan was he was able to solely chop a tree by his own and turn it into lumber. Such a strength was not what a High 4th level Spirit Core expert would have because they felt it was already at the Spirit Veins Realm already.

This caused the boys to feel somewhat frightened but they also did not delay on their work as they worked hard to finish also. But, suddenly.

"Rooooaaaaaar!!!!"

"What?!" The boys were shocked as they saw a large bear who exuded the strength of an Initial 7th level Spirit Veins Realm. They were scared witless. They knew they were going to die because all of them were only 4th level Spirit Core Realm.

'How could we be so unlucky?'

'We just wanted to earn a good job with a good salary.'

'What did we do wrong?!'

'I wish I should not have taken this job!'

'Are we all going to die?'

'Mommy, you were right! I should not have taken this job!'

All of them thought hysterically. They could not accept they were going to die and cursed this job. But they were dumbfounded, when a person walked in front of them and towards the Bear.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Dylan said reassuringly.

'What? How could we not worry that bear is an Initial 7th level of Spirit Veins Realm while you are just comparable to an expert who just broke through to the Spirit Veins Realm. You must be jesting with us?'

They thought that money was nothing compared to their lives so they decided to ran for their lives when they saw a scene that caused their eyes to bulge. The bear fell down from a punch from Dylan.

*Bang*

As the bear fell, the thought, "How is this possible?". They were all dumbfounded but their expressions panicked when they saw the bear stood up and bellowed angrily. "Oh, no, sir Dylan watch out!" They warned when they saw the bear charging at him.

"Hehehe, [Boulder Breaking Fist]!" Dylan smirked and punched with all his might.

The bear also pounded furiously. When both forces met, it created a loud explosion that scared of all the spirit beasts around and fled. Fists and paws were exchanging blows continuously. Dylan maneuvered his movement technique continuously. He found enjoyment in this fight as his blood boiled ragingly.

The bear found it harder and harder to deal with this human. So he struck out with all his might! That strength carried a force enough to seriously injure Dylan. He struck his fist without care as his mind became clear and his understanding about [ Boulder Breaking Fist] broadened while his strength increased abruptly.

"Is this enlightenment? Hehe. My [ Boulder Breaking Fist] has broken through Perfection! Hahaha!"

His fist's might doubled, no tripled. When the two all out strikes met, an explosion even louder than before resounded. The bear felt his arm was breaking. The large bear felt ominous as he realized that he had offended someone he should not have. He could only roar miserably as his entire arm was destroyed and another fist with the same strength landed on his chest.

Fog covered the two figures while the boys were left shocked as the shockwaves forced them to fall over their butts.

"A- amazing..."

The boys now had a new found respect towards Dylan. Not only because of his strength, but also because he saved their lives. Their eyes glittered with respect when they saw a figure carrying a dead bear's carcass on his back and smiled at them. They swore to never betray this man and serve until their very last breath.

"What's with those faces? Let's return immediately. You carry the lumber while I carry this large bear. We're going to add another menu tonight and that is Bear Meat! Hahaha!" Dylan laughed. He looked extremely wrecked. His hair was a bit off a mess and his clothes were partially tattered.

"Yes, sir!" The boys said in unison with their new found respect for their boss and followed him to exit the forest.

When they returned, they saw a large crowd who was just about to arrive on their store.

"About a hundred huh? Hehehe okay. Let's do this!" Dylan smiled joyously. He was really happy because he was finally able to breakthrough to the Perfection stage.

He entered his house and changed for a bit and walked with his business mode on.

"Welcome to the Gardenford Restaurant, Every one I hope you enjoy your meal!". As he ordered his employees to line up and greet the customers. They all were their uniforms and bowed.

"We hope you enjoy your meal!" The employees repeated.

The large crowd came bustling into the restaurant and the employees guided them to their seats while Dylan commenced his cooking.
