Chapter 198 Buying Time

Normally, if it is gossip about the British royal family, such as Prince William breaking up or changing girlfriends, it will still be widely reported in American newspapers.

But with a Duke status like Barron, I am afraid that the level of attention is only that of a third-tier star.

However, it is also because he and his girlfriend are both the authors of "Downton Abbey". When the Sinclair Group introduced this TV series and the "Traitor" reality show, it also hyped it to a certain extent. In addition, Barron His appearance is indeed incredible, so his popularity in the United States is relatively high. It can be said that he is close to a star at this stage.

Especially when he recently purchased large-scale shares of Apple and Google, previous reports from British tabloids about his breakup with his girlfriend also traveled across the ocean and were reprinted in American gossip tabloids.

Because of this, knowing that Barron is currently single, he clearly felt the enthusiasm of those ladies in Jenny Butt's "circle of friends".

Just like Amanda Hearst, she is just 19 years old and still in school. She has just entered the circle of socialites. She doesn’t have any gossip. She is rare and relatively clean...

…

"I'm very sorry, Your Highness the Duke. This is our hotel's mistake. Now we have expedited the process. To express our apology, our hotel will waive your room fee for today. I hope you can understand."

Barron stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on Fifth Avenue in New York.

At this time, the sweat on the hotel manager's forehead was almost dripping. After saying these words of apology, he bowed respectfully to Barron and waited for his reply.

"I can understand that it was an unintentional mistake, but I don't want it to happen again."

Barron said gently with a smile.

After hearing his words, the hotel manager felt as if he had been granted amnesty and said gratefully:

"Thank you for your tolerance, Your Highness, we will send your shirt right away."

After the other party left, Barron stopped his smile and looked at Wang Wanting, who was a little trembling in front of him.

The cause of this incident was that when Barron was about to go out today and change his clothes, he found that the hotel service staff did not deliver his washed and dried clothes in time.

After asking, I learned that one of his shirts was stained and the hotel was dealing with it.

For this reason, the manager of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel personally came to apologize.

You must know that almost all of Barron's clothes are customized in specialized clothing stores in London. Just like his suits and shirts, they will have the Devonshire family's special embroidery patterns.

This kind of mistake will delay his time, which is really a serious mistake.

Although it was mainly the hotel's fault, as Barron's personal assistant, Wang Wanting failed to confirm in time, which was also a dereliction of duty.

"Laura, I can understand that your current job will become more and more complicated..."

Barron looked at Wang Wanting and said lightly:

"I will also increase the corresponding manpower for you, but I don't want such a mistake to happen again."

"Yes, Your Highness the Duke, I will not let this happen again."

When Wang Wanting first became Barron's personal assistant, she didn't have to be responsible for too many things.

On the one hand, it was because Barron's industry was not that complicated at that time, and there were not so many things she needed to communicate in business.

In addition, in England at that time, Barron's life affairs were handled by butlers and servants.

But as the number of properties under Barron's name increased, the things Wang Wanting needed to pay attention to increased exponentially.

Especially when she goes overseas with the Duke, she also needs to deal with many life-related matters.

Although Barron will always stay in the presidential suite of a top hotel, and the hotel will often equip him with dedicated housekeepers and housekeeping staff, all aspects including clothing, travel, food, etc. also need to be confirmed in time by Wang Wanting.

Wang Wanting's current annual salary is 150,000 pounds, which is higher than some company executives and even higher than the Prime Minister's income. However, this money is not so easy to get, because a job like hers often requires anytime Meet certain requirements imposed by your employer...

For example, when Barron mentioned that he wanted to go to a certain football game, the tickets were already sold out.

Then Wang Wanting also needs to contact the other party immediately and find a way to get the VIP box for the game.

Similar to this kind of request, she must be able to find a way to complete it.

She even needs to be involved in luxury goods, art and even various alcoholic beverages to make appropriate choices for some of Barron's daily needs.

Anyway, in general, the requirements for this position are very high. If Wang Wanting still needs to adapt at the beginning, then if she wants to maintain her current position, she must meet these requirements.

It was also from this incident that Barron realized that he needed to add more team members to serve him.

These personnel include Wang Wanting's assistants in various aspects, as well as some professionals.

For example, a personal maid who is responsible for his daily life when he is away from home, or a life secretary.

For example, there is an image assistant who specializes in clothing matching and image design for him.

For example, a personal nutritionist who specializes in matching dietary menus for him.

etc……

Therefore, people are very adaptable. When Barron first came to this world and became the heir to the British Duke family, he was not used to having clothes to stretch out his hands and food to open his mouth like many other nobles. He needed A life of service revolves around him.

But by now, he's very used to it.

Because of a very simple reason, Barron now has more companies under his name, and the lives of countless people depend on his decisions...

Every minute of his time is extremely precious.

Therefore, it is impossible to waste time thinking about what to wear when going out, or to deal with some trivial matters in life like in the previous life.

Yes, whether they are civilians or rich people, they are equal in terms of time, and they all have the same time.

But the difference is that the time of the rich and powerful is more valuable!

The value of their every minute is much higher than that of ordinary people.

Therefore, in order to save time, or not to waste their energy on trivial matters, they are more willing to spend money to buy "other people's time", that is, to hire a large team to serve them.

After the hotel delivered the processed clothes to Barron, they left the hotel and went to Park Plaza in Manhattan.

This time is already half an hour later than the scheduled time.

Woolworth Building, Woolworth Building, located on the Park Square side of Manhattan, New York.

"His Royal Highness the Duke of Cavendish, I am your real estate consultant, Iluna Costin from XYZ Real Estate. As previously agreed, I will first take you to visit the penthouse apartment of this building, which is currently the The best located high-rise apartment for sale, perfect for your distinguished status...”

When Barron arrived, even though he had been waiting for more than half an hour, the beautiful consultant with a great figure, wearing business attire, short skirt, stockings, high heels, was not dissatisfied at all. With a warm smile, she Said to Barron.
