Chapter 1835: Torrent (middle)


"Everyone, it's okay!"
In a spacious hall, Chen Qiao held the wine glass in his hand. It was almost dusk. Many family members and businessmen from the upper classes of the city gathered together. Nearly 200 people were sitting in the hall.
The atmosphere in the entire hall was a little dull, and many middle and lower-level business people had already begun to shrink back. The boycott had only begun for a short period of time, and some people already wanted to retreat.
Wang Degui looked at the businessmen whispering around with a little annoyance. Because of the problem of the upper-level Qinglong Street, many companies in their construction associations have already experienced a capital chain crisis, and several of their companies are the same.
"Those guys... if it weren't for them..."
Field was a little drunk. He clenched his fist and slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table. Jiang Hao shook his head with a wry smile.
No one knows whether the crisis mitigation strategy launched by the Action Division tomorrow will effectively solve the problems of citizens' lives, but everyone who is present will lose hundreds of millions of dollars.
This kind of boycott seems to be quite effective at present. Even though the Acting Section has issued countermeasures, it still cannot alleviate the employment gap. For business people, the employees in the company are all waiting for work because of the labor contract. Therefore, wages must be paid as usual, and cannot be less than 70% of the normal wages.
"I say everyone, I think this kind of boycott is meaningless, or..."
A businessman stood up before he could finish his words, and he stopped. A lot of angry eyes were cast around him. He was about to be unable to hold it. If the company does not operate, he will lose more than 300,000 a day. A few million in a few days will have to lose money.
Profit is the heart and soul of business people. Many business people on the scene seem a little anxious at this moment. Almost all the main business people of the seven major associations have gathered here. This is Wang Degui's home. They will gather here in recent days.
Seeing that someone was already shaking, McCullin couldn't sit still.
"What? Everyone was in high spirits at first?"
Following McCullin's voice, the discussion at the scene stopped for a while, and some businessmen looked at her bitterly, and McCullin laughed haha.
"Didn’t everyone already say that this time we must stand together, or did someone say that someone was going to back down the first day? If we stay silent this time, the future will only become more difficult. We must have Grit your teeth and hold on, everyone! Have you all forgotten that you had a lot of medical companies in the past. What happened? How is the situation? Or do you have your scars and forget the pain?"
McCullin's words changed the expressions of many businessmen and family members. Indeed, what McCullin said was the truth. In the past, when the medical industry was taken over, the Acting Department used almost the same method.
At that time, everyone in the Medical Association conducted the same resistance to the strike, and the Action Section adopted the same strategy as this time. In just over ten days, the entire medical industry was mourned. I originally thought that the Action Section would abandon the medical industry. After being returned to the National Assembly, many businessmen were convinced by the tough attitude of the Action Section.
In the end, the businessmen had to sell the medical industry after negotiating with the Congress for a period of time. Finally, the 4 departments successfully took over the medical industry, allowing only individual doctors to exist.
The medical industry, which was once the most profitable medical industry among the eight major industries in the city, has never been able to set foot in since then, but this time it is different. The large-scale investigation by the Department of Action has affected the seven major industries and the stock market has closed.
Although the Acting Division did not intend to ban these industries, if the investigation continues, the market that is finally available will be upended.
"Okay, think about it clearly. If you can't tighten the waistband this time, the fat you got will be gone."
McCullin reminded once again that this full boycott must continue, and no matter how hard it is, it must survive. At this time, if there is no unification, once the major associations fall apart, they will return to the past era of fierce competition. .
Especially for those businessmen who want to climb up, if they can’t get the corresponding supply of resources from the seven major associations, wanting to come up is simply dreaming. Now as long as everyone stays still, the market is still theirs, and once someone can’t sit down Once you live and start business, there will be gaps in the market, and those who want to come up will immediately squeeze in.
The merchants here now together control 85% of the market in the corresponding industry. The Su family, the Angus family, the Phoebe family and the Eberlen family’s actions this time are in everyone’s expectation. There is not much conflict.
The Su family controls 90% of the city’s apparel market, because it has a cross-shareholding structure with large and small companies. As long as the Su family gives an order, the entire apparel industry will obey. So only the apparel industry is not affected this time. , But because of the impact of the other seven major industries, the mutual supply chain is broken, and the apparel industry will be closed down.
The Phoebus family has been sluggish since the auto industry was completely abolished. Only the Phoebus Resort Hotel and Manor and some insignificant industries are still lingering.
Naturally, the Angus family does not need to say much. They control the transportation and logistics of the city. Although these are special industries under the supervision of Congress, their family is still the richest family in the city, and both daughters are acting. The people of Ko, they have been on the side of Congress for a long time, and they have never stood with merchants or families.
As for the newly promoted eighth-largest family, the Abren family is now the same. Daughter Michelle has entered the acting department and stood in the high-level team. There are many businessmen who have good relations with the Abren family in the venue. I also talked to Charles, but basically there is no hope. Their family’s business will be the same as that of the Su family. The supply chain is broken and they can only temporarily close.
As long as the current businessmen continue to fight, if the supply chain cannot be restored, the urban market can only be in a state of suspension. It is impossible to satisfy the huge supply chain by relying on those mini factories or some small and medium-sized factories at the bottom. of.
So as long as you continue to bear it, the market will be in their hands sooner or later, and if you can’t bear it, the market will be eaten away by the remaining 15%, losing 1%. For the merchants present , Will far exceed the loss of this strike.
"The loss is only temporary for you. If we open the market rashly at this time, we will collapse with the in-depth investigation of the Acting Division. Now we only need to pay a part of the fine and bear part of the labor cost, and once the market has been divided If it is disturbed, I think you should all understand what will happen to us, right!"
Chen Qiao's remarks made many people's expressions a little more relaxed. At this time, some economic calculators began to explain. According to the current situation, a chart has been made, and they only need to bring some of the company's situation values. You probably know how much you will lose every day without starting work.
Businessmen are calculating, and after a while, many businessmen have smiles on their faces.
"I only lost more than 500,000 yuan a day. I can bear it, it's only 15 million a month."
A businessman smiled and held up a glass of wine. Wang Degui was a little relieved. The situation on Qinglong Street is only temporary. Although their real estate project is now at least 2 billion in debt, the house is still in their hands. They just need to wait until the time is right. Just sell when mature, and the upper-floor houses are the least lacking of buyers.
This time, many low-level business people should make a lot of money. After all, taking advantage of this opportunity, they will start construction day and night, and then escape from the bottom level. Then they will be able to take over these houses. The real estate industry will naturally You can turn losses into profits.
Jiang Hao smiled and had a drink with Chen Qiao next to him. For him, the film and television area is the same, except that a group of people have been replaced. The future is the same, because the city needs entertainment and film and television. If there is no demand for a long time, the suffocated people will contribute a huge amount of demand.
The purpose of this strike was to make the Acting Division stop the investigation, but when it was discovered that the Acting Division did not intend to stop the investigation, the merchants also understood that they must not open the market rashly, but only after the Acting Division's investigation is over. , And then open the market.
It's like a reservoir. The water is constantly being filled. When a certain amount is reached, open the gate valve, and the water will gather and come out with a violent impact.
"Please rest assured, in the future, just enjoy it at my home. The future belongs to us."
Following Wang Degui's speech, all the merchants raised their wine glasses for a while, and the dull banquet became happy again.
7:09 p.m.
Su Li wiped the corners of her mouth. She had just eaten.
"It tastes good, right."
Violet on the opposite side was slightly drunk. Starting tomorrow, when the two families were the busiest, Avano had already taken the other members of the family to the bottom.
"It's not just a meal that you invited me over, Su Li!"
Su Li stood up and poured Violet a glass of wine, then walked behind her, pressed her shoulder, and gently squeezed it.
"Relax. I invite you tonight just to chat to relieve boredom and talk about some future things. You will stay tonight and we will have a good drink."
Violet smiled helplessly.
"Actually, I used to hate your Su Li."
Su Li nodded.
"Indeed, although I am the patriarch of the Su family, I am also a businessman. Now the wealth that belongs to your family is what you deserve. Your entire Angus family has paid too much for the city since its establishment. , And the two daughters paid blood, sweat and tears for the city."
"What are you trying to say?"
Violet's expression became more serious, and Su Li said sorry.
"Alpha won't stay in jail for the rest of her life, she still has a lot of unfinished things, right!"
Violet's face was full of complexity and sadness, and she pressed her forehead with one hand.
"I once asked Mr. Gene to confirm something. Didn't I find that Mr. Gene has changed?"
Violi nodded.
"It has indeed changed a lot, and no longer intervenes in the decision of some action departments."
"I'm not referring to these, but the change in mentality. The past Mr. Jean is still the same as now, but his approach has begun to change. I can't say it very clearly, but I can feel it. By the way, how long do you think those guys can last?"
Violet said with a smile.
"They will not open the market until Niya's investigation is over."
"My opinion is the same, so today I have only one purpose for calling you. We will work together to control everything in our hands!"
Violet looked at Su Li in shock. Her expression was serious, not looking like a joke.
"Are you serious, Su Li?"
Violet stood up, Su Li nodded.
"Of course I’m serious. I’m not joking with you. The reason why they are gathering together and not opening the market is just to firmly control the market. Have you ever thought about a certain day in the future. The countless times that happened in the past caused the city to almost Will the big problem of collapse still happen?"
Violet didn't answer, Su Li continued.
"Now is a very good time. As long as we work together, capital can cover all walks of life in the city in an instant, and at least 50% of the city's market can be obtained, that's all!"
Violet laughed.
"Do you know why I hate you Su Li?"
Su Li nodded.
"Rather than handing these things into the hands of bloodthirsty merchants, it is better for us to take them. We will not become the same as them, and..."
"It's not that it won't, but Su Li, maybe you are confident that you can control everything, but too large capital, accompanied by higher risks, if we really do this, it will set off a storm. Yes, we don't need to bear anything in the future battle, because we have enough capital to fight them, but have you ever thought about the 20 million people in Bright City, Su Li!"
Su Li sighed helplessly, and took Violet to sit on the sofa.
"Just as I didn’t say it, it’s just my whimsical idea, but one day in the future, they will definitely reach out to the bottom. I hope you can stop with me at that time, otherwise, the city will be completely Occupied by them."
Olivia nodded and Su Li laughed.
"By the way, Su Li, you bought a lot of liquid food production technology and machinery, what are you going to do?"
Su Li said with a smile.
"If there is a food crisis in the future, I can earn a little bit."
Violet was a little helpless, but he showed a relaxed smile.
"You are really very different from Su Li when you were young.
Su Li took a sip of wine comfortably and nodded.
"Indeed, I will stand up and support Niya, you are a little surprised."
Violet sighed, she did feel surprised, because Su Li gave Niya full support, not only the superficial financial support, but also in the name of assisting the 5 subjects, in the future, she will be free to act as the department. Provide 500,000 sets of uniform replacement.
"I actually regret it, about Alpha."
Violet shook his head.
"The child has grown up, and everything she does must bear the consequences for herself, no matter what she is for, as long as she has no complaints or regrets!"
8 o'clock in the evening
Gene was smoking a cigarette quietly, watching the prisoners around, eating hot glutinous rice jubilantly, several prisoners came over and talked to Gene with a smile, and asked Gene for a few by the way. Smoke.
"It would be good if you came every day, Genn."
Gene replied easily.
"Then, isn't it the same as the holidays! You bastards."
Gene said, squinting at Alpha who was sitting on a huge rock and eating, Quasimodo stood by.
"By the way, has Alpha beat you hard recently?"
Gene murmured, and the faces of several prisoners changed suddenly.
"It's okay lately, Mr. Jean, you should send Alpha somewhere else. We are really afraid of her. She is moody and will always..."
Gene waved his hand, got up and walked slowly, walking up the stairs without looking back, Latis sighed.
"How about going to talk to her?"
Gene just smiled and walked over and waved back.
Alpha, who was sitting on the rock, looked over, grinning slightly at the corner of her mouth, and her smile looked a little terrifying. The empty bowl she was holding was instantly accompanied by a black breath, which was completely shattered and turned into powder.
Quasimodo raised his head slightly and felt an unusually strong force. He stretched out his thick hand, pressed it on Alpha's knee, patted it lightly, and shook his head.
Alpha jumped off the rock.
"I will go out one day, then...what will everything be like outside!"
The two entered the dark tunnel one after the other, when the prisoners in the excavation site began to talk and laugh in relief.
Latis lit a cigarette, and the world outside changed with each passing day. Everything here was sinking unchanged. She smiled helplessly and looked at her Dong Dangdang arm.
"One day you will go out Alpha!"
