Chapter 232 Starve to Death
If this were an internet picture of "what others see and what you see", that would be it.
What others saw was a large group of middle-aged and old smelly men standing there in a mess, with no idea what they were doing.
In the eyes of the Construction Industry Association, they are a pack of vicious wolves surrounding a few pitiful little goats.
In fact?
It was a group of hyenas surrounding a very hungry Tyrannosaurus rex, looking for something to eat.
At this moment, the Tyrannosaurus rex was looking at the leader of the hyenas in front of him and asked: "Actually, I have always wanted to ask a question, what does it feel like to punish someone?"
Jia Yelian was stunned.
"Relying on your monopoly position in a certain industry to leave others with no way out sounds very domineering." Zhuang Buyuan said with a smile.
"What, Mr. Zhuang, are you going to give it a try?" Jia Yelian almost burst out laughing, "I wonder what Mr. Zhuang is going to rely on to punish others?"
If you want to punish others, you must have the strength to do so.
If the strength is not enough, it is not called sanctions, it is called self-isolation from the people!
Why can Jia Yelian sanction Deng Yali?
Isn't it because Huancheng is the largest customer of almost all builders?
Huancheng, on the other hand, could at most sanction a small company like Yajian Company. It would not be that easy to sanction another company that was similar in size to him, or even one that was not much bigger than Yajian Company.
"How about this? From now on, all business partners of Almighty Manor cannot have any business dealings with Huancheng Company, how about that?" Zhuang Buyuan said with a smile.
Opposite him, a group of people were stunned.
Almighty manor?
Just that small, farming manor?
Hahahahahaha...
Do we have any business relationship? I’m afraid not!
A group of people laughed strangely, this is too overestimating one's own abilities!
To put it bluntly, compared with the construction industry, the Agricultural Industry Alliance in Xucheng is indeed a pauper.
The average net worth of the Construction Industry Alliance is dozens of times that of the Agricultural Industry Alliance, and the size of the One City Family is almost as large as that of all the people in the entire alliance combined.
Lao Zhang was listening beside Zhuang Buyuan, and his two legs almost trembled.
This is more than just hitting an egg against a stone? This is simply life-threatening!
How can the Agricultural Industry Alliance punish a giant like Huancheng?
At this moment, a loud roar rang out from outside the crowd: "I respond! From now on, Farm Trade will cut off all business dealings with Huancheng Company. If I remember correctly, 80% of the vegetables in Huancheng Hotel , they are all supplied by us, now I will call and ask them to stop supplying."
Nong Hexin pushed through the crowd and squeezed to Zhuang's side.
"I also agree that all food for the construction team of the Huancheng Wujun project is supplied by Songhua Farmers. From now on, Songhua Farmers will cut off all business dealings with Huancheng Company!" Another voice sounded.
"I respond! Huancheng is bidding for welfare procurement for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we, Dawei, have withdrawn from this bidding."
"I also respond! Huancheng previously planned to order customized mooncakes from our company to distribute to employees, but now we have suspended negotiations."
"I also respond to the staff meal delivery in Huancheng West District..."
"I respond that all 37 vegetable shops near the Huancheng real estate project will be closed starting today..."
"I……"
When one sound after another sounded, Lao Zhang suddenly felt no longer afraid.
He suddenly felt a rush of blood and burst out with an angry roar: "I respond too! Anyone from Huancheng who comes to our market to buy vegetables will not be sold!"
If someone looks down from the sky, he will definitely see a group of people gathering from all directions.
They formed a triangular arrow, piercing the circle surrounded by people from the Construction Industry Association, and Zhuang was not far away, which was the vertex of the triangle.
And Jia Yelian is the bullseye.
Behind Jia Yelian, a group of wealthy real estate developers and builders were stunned.
Compared with large real estate developers like Huancheng, those engaged in agricultural industry are undoubtedly small.
People can spend a lifetime of savings and income to buy a house without any regrets. If the price of vegetables and meat increases slightly, they will complain and quickly stabilize the price.
There is always plenty of food around, and it seems that you can eat it at any time. There is so much food that people don’t know how to cherish it.
But what if one day, all the food disappears?
And all of this, suddenly, seemed to be coming true.
With the sound of responses, the smile on Jia Yelian's face slowly disappeared.
With Zhuang Buyuan's sanctions, it is naturally impossible for people to starve to death. There is always something to eat in restaurants and hotels.
There is always something for sale in the supermarket.
But what about those construction sites in the wilderness?
What about those staff meals purchased in bulk?
What about the ordered gifts and benefits?
What about those vegetable shops and markets that have been closed one after another?
Jia Yelian's sanctions against Deng Yali only made Deng Yali worry about what to do with future projects. It also made Deng Yali feel disgusted.
As time goes by, Deng Yali can always find other suppliers, but it is just a little more troublesome and costly.
But today, I am afraid that half of Huancheng's employees at work will go hungry, half of Huancheng's projects under construction will be suspended, half of Huancheng's hotels will be without food, and half of Huancheng's real estate residents will be unable to buy vegetables.
This is an issue that needs to be considered today, right now, right now.
People can go without work for a day, a week or even a month, but how can they go without eating for a day?
As for claims, compensation, liquidated damages, liability... those are all issues that need to be considered later.
Everyone standing next to Jia Yelian was also stunned.
The hundreds of people opposite were not joking, they were really taking out their phones and making calls.
Suddenly, the surroundings were noisy.
They looked at Zhuang Buyuan and these people blankly, wondering, how could this young man achieve such a result by standing up and shouting?
If they carefully observe the gift market in Xucheng this year, they will definitely find that there are two most popular holiday gifts in Xucheng this year.
One is the vegetables produced by the manor, and the other is the anti-disease wine produced by Zhuangji Winery.
Although the flu is gradually dissipating, it is only just spreading across the state.
The idea of getting rid of illness and strengthening the body without illness is not something that only one person has. There is a saying now: always keep illness-repelling wine at home, so you don’t have to worry about the flu.
I don’t know how many people are begging grandpa and grandma to get the distribution rights.
No matter how big Huancheng is, how many people can there be? It’s good to have tens of thousands of employees in Xucheng. The number of people they radiate is as high as hundreds of thousands. For a big city like Xucheng with tens of millions of people, what does a few hundred thousand people mean?
Not to mention, the output of the manor has begun to radiate throughout the state.
Food, to whom should we sell it?
This is Zhuang Buyuan's influence.
Anyone who dares to offend Zhuang Buyuan will starve to death.
