Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Jones Group Store Big Fraud?
Translator: 549690339
After hearing Will Jones’ suggestion, Snowden Jones became very pleased with himself.
Then, Will continued, “This matter must be dealt with as quickly as possible. Elijah Bailey is crafty.
We must act while he’s still getting his bearing, and get this done soon.”
Having said so, Will couldn’t help but gave Ryan a sidelong glance.
Now, he knew why Ryan had come back under his command and had a certain opinion of him.
But after all, there aren’t many people who can perform at the moment. Although Ryan is unpredictable, he no longer has the possibility of wavering.
With this in mind, Will irritably began, “Ryan, all previous matters are in the past, I can let them go, and I will continue to trust you.
However, if you dare to betray me at this crucial time, don’t blame me for settling old and new scores with you!
As you heard, now we are backed by Sayon’s premier powerhouse, the Weiden family. If this goes well, you will have plenty of opportunities in the future. Do you understand?”
Frightened by the conversation, Ryan didn’t dare to utter a word of refusal. After hearing this, he immediately agreed wholeheartedly.
Seeing Ryan act so scared and panicky, a satisfied smile finally surfaced on Will’s face.
“Alright, Snowden, now you take Ryan immediately to get this done. The resources of suppliers and channel dealers are all in your hands, make sure to finalize them all before Elijah Bailey!”
Snowden, upon receiving the order, didn’t hesitate at all and instantly prepared to enact the plan with Ryan.
Half an hour later, Snowden, with all materials prepared, left the company and began executing the plan.
Soon after, Snowden arrived at a company known as Logan Raw Material.
Logan Raw Material was a well-known supplier in Sayon.
Many materials for third-tier tycoons were bought from them.
Over fifty percent of the Jones Group’s raw materials were purchased from them, making Logan an incredibly important supplier for the Jones Group.
During the last incident involving the Jones Group, Logan played a part.
However, for some unknown reason, Logan stopped their suppression of the Jones Group and everything returned to normal.
This time Snowden arrived with the intentions of eradicating Logan as a supplier for the Jones Group entirely.
Upon arrival at Logan, Snowden put on an air of superiority, as if he looked down on them.
Despite his disapproval, Logan, the general manager of the company, warmly welcomed Snowden into his office.
“Snowden, what brings you here today? Is there something you need to discuss?” Logan energetically asked.
But Snowden showed a look of disdain, then arrogantly took out an agreement and threw it in Logan’s face.
“Our new manager, Sherry Jones, says that the Jones Group needs a fresh start. As the new manager, the Jones Group needs to operate according to her ideas.
This is her proposed cooperation agreement. Have a look, if there isn’t any issue, please sign it.” Snowden stated nonchalantly, as if she wasn’t even considering Logan.
Upon hearing this, Logan unconsciously furrowed his brows. Wasn’t Snowden’s attitude a bit too arrogant?
Though they couldn’t compete with the Jones Group yet, and the Jones Group was like their God of Wealth, was she too disrespectful?
A dissatisfied Logan, with a stern look on his face, slowly opened the agreement thrown by Snowden.
Upon reading it for a few minutes, Logan’s frown deepened and his expression darkened with each passing minute.
“Snowden! Is the Jones Group trying to play a prank on me? From one million dollars per ton of raw materials, you now directly pressed it to 100,000 dollars?
Not only this, you switched the payment from monthly to yearly?”
Do you know just how many goods the Jones Group buys from us in a year? If we have to settle once a year, can my company continue to operate?!”
After reading the agreement, Logan threw it heavily onto the table, angrily questioning Snowden.
This wasn’t negotiation at all! This was daylight robbery!
A million dollars a ton to a hundred thousand dollars a ton, they were practically stuffing money into Logan. Add a year of settlement to that, might as well say that Logan should become their subsidiary outright.
The more Logan thought, the more angry he became. This was utterly unreasonable.
However, facing Logan’s rage, Snowden simply didn’t care, and scoffed, “What, not satisfied? This came directly from Sherry Jones herself!
If you don’t agree, fine, then there’s no need for future cooperation.
After all, there are more suppliers to the Jones Group than just Logan’s company. One more or one less wouldn’t make any difference!”
Gush!
Upon hearing this, Logan exploded, “Snowden! What is the attitude of the Jones Group now? Do you really think I am desperate to work with you?
No cooperation then no cooperation, fuck! Get the hell out!”
Under Logan’s righteous fury, he picked up the Jones Group’s contract and tore it to pieces.
He knew that Snowden was from the Jones family, so he had no doubt about her words.
Just like that, Snowden was directly chased out of Logan’s company.
However, the expelled Snowden showed not the slightest sign of disappointment. On the contrary, a triumphant smile appeared on her face.
Afterward, she directly called Ryan, inquiring about the situation on his end.
The answer she received was very satisfying. Immediately after, Snowden didn’t stop there and turned to locate the second supplier, repeating the process.
Sayon, Jones Group.
Since Will and the others left, the Jones Group’s work returned to normal.
For the entire morning, the employees were fully devoted to their work.
The new manager, Sherry, was no exception, even having a bigger workload than some employees. For a time, her spirit of working hard influenced many workers.
However, as the employees were busy in high spirits, a series of calls from the factory, like a bucket of cold water, suddenly doused over their heads. Immediately, their enthusiasm was dampened.
“It’s not good, Elijah! The factory said that several suppliers directly took the raw materials and said they would not cooperate with the Jones Group in the future, claiming we are too lofty!”
“Elijah, Elijah, the channels said they are taking back their goods, claiming they will no longer be agents of our products. The factory warehouse is asking us what to do!”
“It’s not good, it’s not good…”
One by one, employees rushed to report dire news to Elijah. It was like a volcanic eruption, with more troubling news constantly pouring out.
Elijah felt a pressure as massive as a mountain. He didn’t expect that all this would happen on the first day back at work. Moreover, everything happened all at once!
If there were no tricks involved in this, even if it were told, no one would believe it!
