Zheng Weixian and his son were stunned when they heard Shen Hong’s words.
They clearly came here to mediate, so why did Shen Hong get angry as soon as they spoke?
Isn't it just about asking a distant relative of the Shen family to come out and surrender?
Is it that difficult?
The Shen family was able to become the richest family in Jincheng, but in the process, the Shen family suffered a lot. Sometimes even Shen Hong had to come forward to admit his mistakes. This kind of thing is not uncommon for big families. After all, the larger the family, the more it should focus on interests, and personal honor and disgrace are not that important.
It is impossible for Shen Hong not to understand this truth, but why would he say such words at this time?
Could it be that the distant relative of the Shen family has such a great reputation?
Zheng Weixian couldn't help but look at Zheng Yunliang, who looked confused.
He had met Shen Qi yesterday, but he didn't see anything special about Shen Qi. What impressed him most was that the jar of wine Shen Qi took out was really good, much better than the Maotai he had tasted before.
But the problem now is not whether the wine is good or not, but the reputation of Chunmao Wine Industry.
If Chunmao Winery does not take back the position from the Shen family, how can it maintain the reputation of Maotai as the best wine in Xia Country?
Once this reputation is lost, the impact on Chunmao Wine Industry will be huge.
If this news gets out today, Chunmao Liquor's stock price may plummet the next day. This kind of loss can be calculated in billions.
Zheng Weixian advised, "Master Shen, please don't be impulsive. Chunmao Liquor is a huge company. Even if they don't have much influence in Jincheng, it won't be good for the Shen family if things get really badly out of hand."
Shen Hong snorted coldly, "Boss Zheng, I'm very grateful that you came to tell me this news so early. If it were anything else, I might be able to tolerate it, but this matter involves my second uncle, so there is no room for maneuver. If the major shareholder of Chunmao Wine Industry dares to come to our Shen family to cause trouble, then even if I have to risk the Shen family's huge fortune, I will see what Chunmao Wine Industry is capable of!"
"Also, please convey our Shen family's intentions to the major shareholders of Chunmao Liquor. I don't care how well their Maotai sells in Xia Country or how high their reputation is. As long as it's what my second uncle said, it's absolutely correct. Our Shen family is willing to take responsibility for this!"
Zheng Weixian was completely confused. He really couldn't understand why Shen Hong was so protective of a distant relative of their Shen family.
Zheng Yunliang heard something and said hurriedly, "Uncle Shen, I was wrong in my expression just now. I was at the scene yesterday afternoon, and Mr. Shen Qi did not say that Maotai was inferior to the jar of wine that Mr. Shen Qi brought out. It was Mr. Shen who was already drunk after tasting the jar of wine that Mr. Shen Qi brought out, so he said that."
In fact, Zheng Yunliang said this on purpose, because in his opinion, Shen Qi's status in the Shen family could not compare to Shen Qiu in any way. If he insisted on saying that it was Shen Qiu who said those inappropriate words, Shen Hong might not want to see Shen Qiu being wronged, and impulsively broke up with Chunmao Liquor Industry. That's why he shifted his target to Shen Qi, with the purpose of making Shen Hong abandon Shen Qi's face and suppress the matter.
Unexpectedly, Shen Hong not only refused to buy it, but also reacted strongly, acting as if he respected Shen Qi. This really made him confused.
When Shen Hong heard Zheng Yunliang's words, his expression softened slightly.
"So, Chen Qiu got drunk yesterday afternoon and spoke without restraint, offending Mr. Feng Song, the major shareholder of Chunmao Liquor?"
Zheng Weixian and Zheng Yunliang looked at each other and suddenly felt that things had taken a turn for the better.
"That's right! Mr. Shen was just drunk and said it carelessly. It wasn't specifically targeting Chunmao Liquor!"
Although they didn't know why the turn of events occurred, Zheng Weixian and his son were very sensitive and seized this opportunity to pin the blame of defaming Chunmao Liquor Industry on Chen Qiu.
Shen Hong pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's do this. I'll call Shen Qiu over. If this is really the case, when the major shareholders of Chunmao Liquor come over, I'll have Shen Qiu apologize to them."
Zheng Weixian and his son immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Shen Hong was willing to give in, it would be fine.
In their opinion, Shen Qi is just a distant relative of the Shen family, and his status is far inferior to Shen Qiu. Letting Shen Qiu come forward to admit his mistake will definitely have a better effect than asking Shen Qi to come forward.
Originally, they took the Shen family's face into consideration, so they locked on Shen Qi as their target. Unexpectedly, Shen Hong didn't buy it at all, and acted as if his distant uncle was more important than his own son.
Shen Hong quickly called Shen Qiu over and asked him about what happened yesterday afternoon, and then told him that Chunmao Liquor Industry was about to come and question him.
When Shen Qiu heard this, he immediately understood his father's thoughts and expressed his opinion immediately.
"Father, this incident was caused by me and has nothing to do with Second Grandpa. If the people from Chunmao Wine Industry come to question me, I can apologize for my attitude yesterday, but this has nothing to do with Second Grandpa."
Shen Hong nodded, "Okay, then let's wait here until the people from Chunmao Wine Industry come over."
Zheng Weixian and his son felt a little uneasy again. They didn't expect Chen Qiu to agree so readily.
As the next heir of the Shen family, Chen Qiu is also a respected figure in Jincheng. They thought Chen Qiu would resist, but they didn't expect him to agree so readily.
In addition, from what Shen Qiu said, he actually respected the distant relative of the Shen family very much. He would rather damage his own reputation than not protect Shen Qi's dignity.
So, who is this distant relative of the Shen family, and who could actually convince both the Shen father and son?
