Chapter 493: A Lobbyist Who Is Not a Lobbyist
"The more their family begs us for help, the angrier my uncle gets." Yu Tian was still emotional when she mentioned this. "We have to let them have a taste of what it's like to beg for help, to dampen their arrogance. Even a rabbit bites when it's cornered!"
Su Jiaojiao listened to her quietly.
If this matter is dragged on, it will definitely fall on Lu Jingyou. If she can indirectly facilitate this matter, it will be considered as solving a difficult problem for Lu Jingyou.
"Of course, I'm not talking about you. You're not from their family." Yu Tian then remembered that the Lu family was Su Jiaojiao's future in-laws, and she took her words back. "Actually, Lu Jiahe, Lu Jingyou, and even Old Madam Lu are innocent. But they chose to make excuses for Lu Jiaping, and that's why we're angry. Not everything can be settled privately. Do you think being rich is so great?"
"Yeah, anyone would be angry if this happened to them. Uncle Yu didn't go too far." Su Jiaojiao nodded in agreement. "Whoever made the mistake should take responsibility."
"Right? I told you they're just selfish. They always want to have the upper hand and take advantage of everyone. They deserve it." Yu Tian grew angrier and angrier, almost knocking over the teacup on the table. "I'm telling you, in a few days, Jiahe Group will go bankrupt. Just wait and see."
"If Jiahe Group really declares bankruptcy, then Uncle Yu will have to change his strategy. We're all in business, and what businessmen value most should be profit, not simply venting their anger." Su Jiaojiao poured Yu Tian a cup of tea and said seriously, "Instead of passively accepting mediation, it's better to take the initiative and get what you want. That's the fundamental solution to the problem."
"You mean, let my uncle take the initiative to negotiate with the Lu family?" Yu Tian looked at Su Jiaojiao inquiringly. "Are you here to act as a lobbyist?"
"Of course not. What does Lu Jiaping's matter have to do with me?" Su Jiaojiao said with a smile. "You know, Qin Xiuming and I don't have a good relationship. I don't need to speak for his family. We are just objectively analyzing the pros and cons."
"That's true." Yu Tian knew that Su Jiaojiao and Qin Xiuming didn't get along, and that there was no need for Su Jiaojiao to get involved in this mess. "Indeed, for my uncle, the most important thing is to get the lost money back. Otherwise, most of his life would have been wasted."
"We in the clothing business have a very hard time making money, especially for Uncle Yu, a veteran in the industry. It's even harder. I remember hearing about Uncle Yu's fame when I was still in high school. Qi Mei and Jia Li almost got into a fight over Uncle Yu's pajamas order." Su Jiaojiao tried her best to recall the past and said slowly, "Actually, I still admire Uncle Yu very much. He took such a big fall, but he was able to recover and face it calmly. If it were me, I would really have collapsed."
"The days of our collapse are over. You can't imagine what it was like back then." Yu Tian's tone softened. "Our pain can't be soothed by a few words from the Lu family."
"You're right. People often lack empathy. Everyone has their own perspective. Selfishness is human nature, and kindness is just a choice." Su Jiaojiao paused, then continued, "If we're not treated kindly by others, then the only thing we have to protect is our own interests, and only our own interests."
As long as Yu Baiqiang is willing to put forward conditions, there is a chance for things to turn around.
The problem cannot be solved by the Lu family alone.
"Yes, if their family really goes bankrupt and declares bankruptcy, then all our losses will be wasted." Yu Tian felt that Su Jiaojiao's reminder was right. She was not favoring the Lu family, but was solving the problem.
We have to admit that Capricorns are best at weighing the pros and cons.
This point is vividly embodied in Su Jiaojiao.
After Su Jiaojiao left, Yu Tian went to talk to Yu Baiqiang about this. Yu Baiqiang's first reaction was that Lu Jingyou asked Su Jiaojiao to act as a lobbyist: "The people in their family are really shameless. They even use their girlfriend."
"But what she said is also true." Yu Tian also followed Yu Baiqiang and advised, "Why not, while they are asking us for help, make conditions with them? They want face, and we want money. We each get what we need, and no one loses out."
Yu Baiqiang listened and remained silent.
"If Jiahe Group really goes bankrupt, it will be difficult for us to propose conditions again. We are in business, and businessmen must value profits. Otherwise, all the hard work we have put in over the years will be wasted."
"Let me discuss it with your father first!" Yu Baiqiang neither agreed nor refused.
After Su Jiaojiao finished talking with Yu Tian, she ignored the matter and took some time to go to the Commercial Street to find Marco Bo.
She did what she could, and the outcome was not up to her.
Commercial Street is not far from the neighboring University of Finance and Economics, just opposite the north gate of the University of Finance and Economics. It is a very prosperous east-west street. It is called Commercial Street because it is close to the University of Finance and Economics.
There are not only many fly-in-the-wall restaurants on both sides of the commercial street, but also many small clothing stores, all of which are suitable for college students. There are also college students who work and study and buy goods from wholesale malls and come here to set up stalls to earn tuition and living expenses.
It was noon, and many restaurants in the commercial street were packed. Young and energetic faces were coming in and out. They were not in a hurry to go back to school after eating. They usually strolled on the street for a while and bought some daily necessities to take back.
Groups of playmates, young couples holding hands, laughter and playfulness combine to create a beautiful and vivid street scene full of youthful vitality.
The sun was scorching. Su Jiaojiao spent ten yuan to buy a light blue parasol with white flowers at a street shop and walked slowly on the commercial street.
Yu Tian said that Marco Bo had been selling on this street for a week. As for how many pieces were sold, she didn't know. She only knew that the price of Marco Bo's short-sleeved shirts was 80 yuan each.
At 80 yuan, Su Jiaojiao might not even be able to sell it in Wudaokou, let alone this commercial street. In the commercial street, the most popular products are the personalized blouses that cost 30 or 40 yuan, not the ones that cost 80 yuan and are full of art and personality.
How much is the monthly living expenses for college students? Not everyone has a family background like Marco Bo.
"Everyone, come and take a look at this fashion designer's latest twilight collection, a gradient short-sleeve. The sunset glow and you, you're the most beautiful. The fabric is soft, smoothing your skin like milk." Marco Bo, wearing a sun hat, was selling his twilight gradient short-sleeves on the street. Next to him was an iron clothes rack, neatly hung with his twilight gradient short-sleeves. "Eighty-one pieces, all at a reasonable price. Don't miss out if you're passing by."
Among the many people setting up stalls, he was the most conspicuous.
