Chapter 381 Threat?
"Bang!"
Yang Tian gave Li Dequan a hard kick and kicked open Li Dequan's office door.
"What are you doing? Come on, come on, come on, someone is making trouble!"
The female secretary with a hot figure was so frightened that her beauty turned pale and she quickly shouted for help.
"Okay, stop arguing, let them come in, you can go out first!"
At this moment, a fair and fat middle-aged man stood up, waved to the female secretary, drove her out, and then said with a smile, "Niece Su, why are you here and still so angry? Your grandfather
Are you feeling well?"
This fair and plump middle-aged man is Li Dequan, the president of Jiangcheng Restaurant Association.
Su Hongxiu was confused. Li Dequan's attitude was so good. It didn't look like he had just tricked them. Could it be that they had made a mistake?
"Uncle Li, I'm sorry for kicking your door down. My grandpa is in good health!" Su Hongxiu glanced at Yang Tian, signaling him to be calm, and then asked, "I came here today to ask
, Uncle Li, do you know that someone is causing trouble outside our Xiangman Garden?"
"Come on, come on, sit down first and drink tea!" Li Dequan had a smile on his chubby face. He not only took the initiative to make tea for Yang Tian and Su Hongxiu, but also invited them to sit down. Then he said, "Niece, you are quite well informed.
Well, you came to your door so quickly!"
When Su Hongxiu heard this, she couldn't sit still. The person who was cheating them behind the scenes was actually Li Dequan.
"Uncle Li, why do you want to harm us?"
Su Hongxiu stood up excitedly and asked angrily.
She didn't expect that it was actually Li Dequan who was behind these dirty tricks.
"Li Dequan, you use such despicable means to compete, you don't follow the rules!" Yang Tian stared at Li Dequan coldly and said, since Li Dequan doesn't follow the rules, then naturally he doesn't need to follow the rules.
"Rules?" Li Dequan sneered and said disdainfully, "Shopping malls are like battlefields. Rules are just an excuse for the weak. Niece Su, don't you want to know why I did what I did? Come with me and I will tell you the answer!"
Li Dequan walked directly outside, and Su Hongxiu and Yang Tian followed. With Yang Tian around, Su Hongxiu didn't worry about Li Dequan's mischief at all.
"Please come in!"
Li Dequan left the office, walked a few steps, came to the large conference room next door, and walked directly in.
In the conference room, both sides of the long conference table were already filled with people.
Seeing these people, Su Hongxiu was shocked.
"Mr. Li from Xianghe Tower!"
“Mr. Ma from Pinshang Hotel!”
"Mr. Chen from Xingwang Catering Group!"
"You...you...are you all involved in this matter?"
Su Hongxiu's eyes widened. She didn't expect that all the famous people in Jiangcheng's catering industry would come.
These are all Jiangcheng Catering Group, owners of high-end restaurants.
Jiangcheng has a population of tens of millions, and there are many large catering groups and high-end restaurants. Su Hongxiu has participated in many industry events before and met many bosses in related industries.
When those people saw Su Hongxiu appear, they looked at her with amused eyes.
"Niece Su, don't you want to know why I did this?" Li Dequan sat directly at the main seat of the conference table. The false smile on his face disappeared and he said with a sneer, "That's because you caused public outrage and everyone asked me to do this.
of!"
"Uncle Li, what do you mean?"
Su Hongxiu frowned. She was working on her own catering brand honestly and had basically no dealings with the owners of these restaurant groups. She couldn't remember when she had made public outrage.
"Su Hongxiu, are you still pretending? You have opened one Xiangmanyuan store after another, and the business in each store is so booming. If you have finished all the business, what business should we do?"
Mr. Ma said disdainfully, "We are all colleagues. If you want to force us to death, don't blame us for being ruthless!"
Su Hongxiu's heart sank, and she immediately understood what these people meant.
These people were jealous because they saw how hot Xiang Manyuan was.
The opening of one Xiangmanyuan restaurant after another has indeed affected their business, but survival of the fittest in the market is not normal. Besides, the catering market in Jiangcheng is very large. It is simply unrealistic to rely on one restaurant to eat up the entire market.
Even if people's businesses are affected, the impact will definitely be limited.
Smashing their jobs is not the key.
"President Li, what do you want?"
Su Hongxiu took a deep breath to calm down her anger and asked calmly.
"Niece Su, your grandfather and I are old friends. I was able to sit in the position of president of Jiangcheng Catering Association all because of your grandfather's promotion. I still remember your grandfather's kindness!"
Li Dequan smiled.
Su Hongxiu had a sneer on her face. If she really remembered her grandfather's kindness back then, Li Dequan wouldn't be doing these tricks behind her back.
"In this way, as the president of the Catering Association, I will mediate for everyone. The reason why the bosses of our restaurants and chain restaurant groups are so angry is mainly because of the vegetable problem in Xiushui Village. As long as niece Su can agree, I will give you
We all supply vegetables, and I promise that in the future, we and Meimei will never do this kind of backstabbing thing again, what do you think?"
Li Dequan said.
really!
Yang Tian curled his lips, these guys were after Xiushui Village vegetables. What they were afraid of was not Xiangmanyuan, but Xiushui Village vegetables.
Su Hongxiu glanced at Yang Tian, and seeing that Yang Tian didn't speak, she said in a deep voice, "If you want vegetables from Xiushui Village, you don't need to use such dirty methods!"
Li Dequan spread his hands and shrugged, disapproving of Su Hongxiu's words.
If you give a sweet date with a stick, people will be obedient and grateful. If you only give a sweet date without a stick, the other person will think that you are fawning and not that it is a favor.
"How many do you want?"
Su Hongxiu asked.
"This is the list of restaurants. We have a total of 138 mid-to-high-end restaurants under our umbrella. Each of them has at least one thousand kilograms of Xiushui Village vegetables a day. If you agree, niece Su, I guarantee that those who have
The people who made the flyers will disappear immediately, and the news media in Jiangcheng will only have applause for Xiushui Village vegetables!"
Li Dequan paused and said coldly, "If you don't agree, I will destroy the golden brand of Xiangmanyuan and Xiushui Village Vegetables!"
"Are you threatening us?" Yang Tian narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
He observed that there were surveillance cameras in this conference room, and there were many staff outside. If so many catering company owners were in trouble together, things would become very troublesome.
"It's not a threat, it's just a way of cooperation!" Li Dequan smiled and said, "Yang Tian, I heard that you have a vegetable planting base of more than 1,000 acres in Xiushui Village. If you supply more Xiushui Village vegetables every day, you can also make more money.
