Chapter 504: Mumbai Police in Action

"You bastard, you want to buy my land with a 70% discount? It's just a pipe dream." Cyrus quickly saw the content of Sori's interview.

This is a naked humiliation.

Cyrus knew very well that Sori was saying these things against him and was taking revenge on him.

Of course, in addition to revenge, in Cyrus's opinion, Sori also intended to lower the price.

The lowest bid someone had previously made was about half of that.

Cyrus couldn't accept this price.

Now that Sori has told the media reporters a 30% discount on the price, other people who are interested in the land may change their minds.

Originally they might have thought that half price was enough, but after hearing what Sori said, they might have to lower the price in their minds.

Sure enough, someone contacted Cyrus soon.

These people's quotes may not necessarily be exactly according to Sori's 70% discount, but they are still slightly lower than the previous half price.

This made Cyrus very angry.

Because in the conversations with these people, the other party clearly had a tone that showed they had Cyrus in their grasp.

It's no secret that Cyrus is short of funds.

Everyone now wants to take advantage of your misfortune and kill you when you are sick.

Cyrus was very angry, but at this moment, he did not explode.

He knew that the funding issue had to be resolved.

Now we have to negotiate with these people about the land transfer and try to increase the transfer price as much as possible.

This way you can save yourself some losses.

That’s right, just lose less.

Cyrus now has no idea of ​​making a profit at all.

At this time, if the other party offered half the price, Cyrus would probably agree.

But right now, these guys are no longer willing to offer this price.

The situation has changed and we are now in a weaker position.

The psychological expectations of what price those guys were willing to pay were knocked down by Sori's interview.

Of course, Cyrus knew this very well.

The main reason is that we are short of money, otherwise these people would not lower the price so much.

Cyrus certainly hated Sori, but what he hated the most was the Tata family, Ratan Tata.

It is because of them that we are unable to pledge the shares of the Tata Group.

Unable to mortgage the lands, he was forced to transfer them.

This gives those guys the opportunity to lower the price.

"Boss, their offers are very low. Do you still want to negotiate?" the assistant asked Cyrus.

"Talk, talk about everything." Cyrus took a deep breath.

He has no better choice now.

These lands must be transferred as soon as possible so that some funds can be recovered.

Damn epidemic.

Cyrus felt that his luck was really bad.

If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of the epidemic, he wouldn't be so miserable.

He could obviously make a fortune, and even become a giant in the Indian real estate industry.

Sadly, it all ended before it even began.

He never expected that his ending would be so tragic.

No one could have predicted this sudden situation.

However, when reflecting on it, Cyrus realized that he had been too radical before.

At that time, probably because of the competition with Sori, I got a little carried away.

At that time, he was thinking about attacking Sori, which would embarrass Rotten.

Every time he successfully took over the land, Cyrus felt it was his own success.

Even if the final transaction price of these lands exceeds one's expectations.

Because when Sori was competing with us, he naturally raised the land price.

Cyrus hadn’t thought much about it before. In his mind, as long as he took the land, that would be victory.

It was precisely because of this that he borrowed large amounts of money and invested the money in purchasing land at high prices.

Thinking about it now, I was too impulsive at that time.

The complacency at that time was really ridiculous.

"Could it be that Sori did it on purpose?" This thought suddenly flashed through Cyrus' mind.

But this idea was quickly discarded.

The epidemic happened suddenly and no one could predict it.

This shows that Sori really wanted to make a big move into the real estate industry at that time.

It was just that he lost to me in the land auction. I was too crazy at that time and pushed the land price to a level that Sori could not afford.

Thinking of this, Cyrus could only smile bitterly.

He won the land auction, but the price he paid was high, as the cost of acquiring the land increased dramatically.

Until now, after the outbreak of the epidemic, I, the former winner, have become the biggest loser.

He had snatched away a lot of the land that Sori wanted, but now he is helping Sori avoid falling into crisis.

This is a huge irony.

If those lands were bought by Sori, Sori would also suffer huge losses.

And some time ago, Sori didn't acquire many pieces of land.

With only a few pieces of land in hand, even if the epidemic lasts for a longer time, it will not have much impact on Sori.

After thinking about this, Cyrus soon stopped thinking about it further.

There is no point in thinking about these things at this time.

Since Sori's interview came out, Cyrus has been in frequent contact with companies that are interested in acquiring land.

He can be said to be extremely busy.

"Mr. Mistry, I approve of your price. If possible, we can officially sign the contract in three days." Someone said with a smile.

"Okay, then three days later." Cyrus also smiled.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

After several days of negotiations, we finally won one.

The transfer price of this land is 45% off the original price. Although it is lower than half price, it is much higher than the 30% discount mentioned by Sori.

Cyrus believed that as long as this news was spread, it would become a standard for everyone to refer to.

Next, the transfer price of other lands will fluctuate up or down based on this 45% discount.

And this floating range will definitely not be too large.

An offer of 70% off like Sori's is absolutely impossible.

Transferring the land at a 45% discount was a huge loss for Cyrus.

But when I think about the debts that need to be repaid, there is nothing I can do about the losses.

Recovering funds is the most important thing now.

There are quite a few loans that are due now, and I have been dragging my feet on them. However, these things cannot be delayed for too long, and the repayments must be made.

"Boss, this price is still a little low." The assistant whispered after seeing the person leave.

"This price is already very good right now." Cyrus sighed and said, "In the next negotiation with other people, we will follow this standard. Oh, and report the price of this transfer through the media."

"I see." said the assistant.

In fact, he could understand his boss's thoughts, and being able to transfer the land would be the best outcome.

This matter definitely needs to be hyped up, at least to prevent others from lowering the price.

The quotes those guys gave before were really outrageous, and they were all based on the standards that Sori mentioned.

Will that work?

Isn’t it a joke that someone’s words can become the standard?

Now that we have the transfer price and examples, we can truly use it as a reference.

The subsequent negotiations went much more smoothly for Cyrus.

Those guys didn't continue to drive the price down to an absurdly low level.

In just two days, Cyrus reached transfer intentions with several companies, and everyone agreed on the price.

Basically it's between 40% and 50% off.

Cyrus must have lost money.

As for those companies that want the land, they are actually satisfied with the price.

Their previous offer was very low. According to Sori's standards, it's not like they really wanted to get the land at a 70% discount.

They also knew that Cyrus would never agree to this price.

Such a quotation is nothing more than a price war, which only puts psychological pressure on Cyrus.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Today's price, although not as low as they originally expected, is not bad.

Someone has already taken action, and they are a little panicked.

If it is too late, these lands may be taken away by others.

After all, it is high-quality land, so it would be more reassuring if we could acquire it as soon as possible.

"Boss, those calls are coming again." The assistant did not leave immediately, but said again with an embarrassed look on his face.

These words made Cyrus' mouth twitch a few times.

"Tell them that we'll be able to pay them back soon." Cyrus said in a deep voice, "We'll deal with it first."

The assistant responded and left.

Cyrus cursed in his heart.

As the epidemic continued to spread, and with the financial constraints on my side, the creditors came to collect the debts.

Some have already come to the company to block people.

The most common calls are about debt collection.

These calls would not come directly to Cyrus, but the company's phone was almost blown up.

Cyrus was furious about this.

Before, he borrowed money from here normally and paid back the money on the other side.

I thought that once the debt was repaid, I could immediately borrow the money again.

Unexpectedly, after receiving the money, they stopped lending me money.

He made all kinds of excuses, saying that the risk on his side was too high and so on.

This kind of loan withdrawal is really abominable.

The other party's actions made Cyrus' funds even tighter.

Now he is too lazy to pay attention to those debt collectors and just wants to put it off.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to pay back the money, but he really has no money now.

Once these lands are transferred, the funds will naturally be recovered to repay the money.

The reputation of their Mistry family is still important.

In Cyrus's opinion, this matter was nothing at all. It was just a delay in repayment, and he was not unwilling to pay it back.

But on the afternoon before he was about to sign the first formal land transfer contract, the Mumbai police raided the headquarters of Cyrus Real Estate in Mumbai.

The police quickly took control of the company’s key executives, sealed off the company, froze its financial funds, and so on.

Cyrus only found out about it when his subordinates called him.

"Roton?" Cyrus was furious. This was definitely a conspiracy by Rotun against him.

Closing down the company at this time is just an attempt to step on you when you are in the most difficult time.

Cyrus wants to accuse the Mumbai police through the media and others of abusing their power.

However, before he could take any action, he discovered that the Mumbai police had already informed the media about the details of the operation.

The police spokesman actually defined his actions as fraud.

Because the police received reports from many people saying that they had no intention of repaying the loan.

The police said they would summon themselves soon.

This drove Cyrus crazy.

When did you say you wouldn't pay it back?

It just requires a slight delay in repayment.

How did it become a fraud? This was not the point. What Cyrus could not accept the most was that the company was closed down, and the land transfer contract that had been reached before could not be carried out.

If I can’t transfer the land, how can I get the money to pay them back?

Cyrus had every reason to believe that this was a trick played by Rawdon against him.

I just don't want to sell the land myself.

Apart from this explanation, he couldn't think of any other reason.

Speaking of which, he had suppressed Sori in various ways before and seized his land. It can be said that he had suppressed Sori to death.

Under normal circumstances, there should be some reaction from Roton, right?

No, not at all.

Roden didn't react at all.

Before, Cyrus thought that it was probably because Rotten wanted to avoid suspicion and didn't want to get involved in business affairs. He could only endure the loss if he suffered such a thing.

Now it seems that Rotun has been looking for an opportunity to deal with him.

This time the revenge was almost enough to send him to hell.

"No, we can't go on like this. The company can't be sealed off." Cyrus looked anxious.

He planned to use his connections to get the charge of fraud removed first.

Also, the company must be restored to normal first, otherwise how can the land be transferred?

Just as Cyrus was about to call some of his connections in the government, he saw the butler running in with a terrified look on his face.

Before the butler could say anything, several policemen came over.

"Mr. Cyrus Mistry, someone has reported you to the police and accused you of fraud, so please cooperate with our investigation and come with us," said the leading policeman.

Cyrus didn't expect the Mumbai police to act so quickly.

The news had just been released when the people who were arresting us arrived.

What about cooperating with the investigation?

If I fall into Rotun's hands, will anything be okay?

At this time, Rotun would definitely punish himself to death.

"What fraud? That's all false accusation." Cyrus said in a deep voice.

"There is already a lot of evidence here, and none of it is in your favor, so please come back to the police station and explain everything to us. We hope you can cooperate." The leading policeman said coldly.

This time the order was given personally by Director Mahesh. As the director's confidants, they naturally had to do a good job.

Since they were Rotten's confidants, they certainly knew about some of the conflicts between Cyrus and Rotten.

If you offend the director, isn't that seeking death?

Now that he has the evidence, the director is obviously going to take it out on him.

So, they will not be polite to Cyrus.

Cyrus noticed the looks and attitudes of the policemen and knew he could not resist.

If I really resist, I will probably be charged with one more crime.

That kid Rotten will definitely not miss such a good opportunity to take advantage of someone's misfortune.

"Humph, I'm not guilty." Cyrus snorted coldly, "Okay, since you want to investigate, I will cooperate with you."

After that, Cyrus said to the butler, "Contact my eldest brother as soon as possible."

I've gone to the police station by myself, and I won't be able to get out for a while.

My eldest brother must be responsible for what’s happening outside.
