Chapter 371 - The Jiang Family Destruction V
The manager said anxiously, "Boss Jiang, it's over! All the stores in our malls have closed today. I ..."
"What are you panicking about?" Jiang Tingguang rebuked angrily. "Is the sky falling? Is this world about to be doomed? Can you just say straight to the point?"
Hearing this, the manager immediately took a deep breath to calm down and casually said, "The sky has not fallen yet, and the apocalypse has not come yet. More than half of the stores in our shopping malls are closed. Restaurants, clothing stores, and even cosmetics are not open. We have just received calls from 30 food manufacturers telling us that they are leaving our hypermarkets, and suppliers of electrical appliances also will no longer supply electrical appliances to us. The other half of beverage and liquor distributors said that they would never supply to our hypermarkets again!"
"What the f*ck!" Jiang Tingguang fell off his chair. He was really stunned. At this point, he really felt that the sky had fallen. It was the end of the world!
If all these suppliers didn't provide the goods, then what was he supposed to be selling? Selling ghosts?
The manager only heard the "bang" sound, but did not know that Jiang Tingguang had fallen to the ground, so he was still relatively calm and casually said, "Also, because of Young Miss's words last night, our hypermarket has been boycotted by netizens. Apart from a handful of old people who visited the hypermarket, we didn't see any young people. In addition, the old people saw that the stores outside were all closed, so they thought our hypermarkets were closed, and they all left as soon as they walked through the door."
The misfortune did not come separately.
This was a double blow.
At this moment, Jiang Tingguang truly experienced what it meant by 'there is no single calamity'.
If only those stores were closed and even if the supplier didn't want to supply anymore, it didn't matter as long as the netizens did not boycott him. Jiang Tingguang could rely on the stock of goods, which was enough for ten days.
He also still had time to think of other methods. But if the people did not come to the hypermarkets to buy things, this was simply pushing him to the brink of death!
Just when Jiang Tingguang thought this was the worst thing that could happen to him, the manager said, "Earlier, the big real estate department called and said that our previous contract with them will expire this month. Starting next month, the monthly rent will be increased to one and a half million per month. If we can accept that, they will sign a new contract, but if not ... we will have to vacate our hypermarkets before the end of the month."
Jiang Tingguang: "..."
Could it be any worse?
The rent had risen to 1.5 million RMB per month. Even if his hypermarkets did really well in the past, he still wouldn't be able to earn that much money to pay the rent.
The manager acted as if he was listening to Jiang Tingguang's thoughts, and continued, "The business cooperation we had extended to Europe before, the person in charge there called and said that the other parties had no desire to continue this cooperation."
Jiang Tingguang gloomily closed his eyes, sat down on the floor, and shouted angrily, "The cooperation has not started yet and we still haven't earned any money, how can they break the contract?!"
The manager was not anxious at all and said calmly, "The other parties have said that they will pay appropriate compensation. In the future, they will not cooperate with us again."
Jiang Tingguang did not have the strength to speak.
What could he do with that little bit of compensation?
In order to expand his business abroad, he had spent a lot of money to open his connections and put a lot of energy into market research.
It really was like a monkey scattering after a tree had fallen. Jiang Tingguang really regretted looking down on the Han Family.
Seeing that Jiang Tingguang nearly died, Liao Yan asked anxiously after he hung up the phone. "What happened? You looked like you were dying."
The word "dying" really stung Jiang Tingguang's heart. He really wanted to die now.
He struggled to get up from the ground and looked at Jiang Ning for the last time before stumbling out the door without saying anything.
Jiang Ning was so depressed that her eyes opened wide. She looked at Jiang Tingguang's retreating figure and asked Liao Yan, "Mom, quickly go ask dad. See if he can make the Han Family withdraw the lawsuit, I don't want to go to jail!"
No matter how outrageous Jiang Ning was, she remained her daughter. How could Liao Yan not care about Jiang Ning's life?
Hearing Jiang Ning's words, Liao Yan didn't hesitate and chased after Jiang Tingguang.
It wasn't easy for her to stop Jiang Tingguang at the end of the corridor. Liao Yan angrily asked him, "What's wrong with you?! How can you just leave like that? Don't you care about Ning's life and death situation?"
Seeing Jiang Tingguang remaining silent, Liao Yan became even angrier. "Jiang Tingguang, it's not a big deal! Even if Ning did something wrong, she's still your daughter! Go and ask Han Yuanjun to withdraw the lawsuit. As long as his Han Family doesn't sue Ning, our family can give them any condition they want! How much money do they want? We will compensate them. There is nothing in this world that cannot be settled with money."
Money?
When Jiang Tingguang heard the word "money", he raised his hand and slapped Liao Yan's face. "Liao Yan, let me tell you, our family doesn't have any money now! If you want to save that bastard, you can use your own money. Don't count on me to give you even a penny!"
Liao Yan was stunned for a while and immediately ignored the burning pain on her face when she heard Jiang Tingguang's words. She raised her head and looked at him in disbelief. "What do you mean by no money? We have many businesses in this country. Even though Han Yuanjun banned us, it's still not enough to create chaos in our family."
Jiang Tingguang smirked in disappointment and said with a smile. "You think it's just Han Yuanjun? I also didn't expect him to have such a big influence. Today, all the pharmacies, restaurants, clothing stores, and cosmetic stores are closed. And not only that, even the suppliers of electrical appliances no longer supply us anymore. The food, the alcohol, beverages, and so on ... They didn't want to provide us with their goods anymore.. So, Liao Yan, you tell me. What do you think we should do now?"
