Chapter 470 Acquisition of a Gold Shop
"Let me think about it!" Lu Xianhe said.
"You don't have time to think now!" Tang Zhongying said: "This is the most reliable method at the moment."
Lu Xianhe also understood that although bankruptcy would damage his reputation, it was at least much better than letting the Lu family die.
This way, the body can be preserved and its vitality will not be damaged, so it is possible for it to rise again if there is an opportunity in the future.
"Okay, let's do it this way!" Lu Xianhe said, "But we have to sign a secret agreement!"
No one is reliable at the moment. What if he declares bankruptcy and helps the Tang family turn the situation around, but the Tang family turns around and throws him aside?
It has to be said that as the head of the family, Lu Xianhe has a long-term vision.
"Okay, no problem!" Tang Zhongying said, "We can draft a contract according to your requirements and start working on it now to avoid any more trouble later."
"it is good!"
......
The Yunmeng gold shop incident continues to ferment, and the deceived people are blocking the doors of major gold shops every day to demand explanations.
All media outlets were busy filming everywhere as if it was the New Year.
A day later, someone from the gold shop finally spoke up.
The person who spoke was naturally Lu Xianhe.
Lu Xianhe first apologized to the public.
"This Yunmeng Gold Shop is a subsidiary of my company. Due to my negligence in management, the gold shop has caused a series of product problems, causing economic and mental losses to the general public and consumers. I am deeply sorry."
"With the attitude of an entrepreneur, I will not evade this matter. I will bear all consequences, including all compensation."
"I ask the relevant departments to make claims in accordance with market rules, and I also ask consumers and citizens to supervise me."
"Thank you!"
What a manly statement.
It also leaves consumers speechless.
Although it was a mistake, the attitude towards admitting it and correcting it was impeccable.
Besides, after they get the compensation, they basically don’t suffer any loss.
Therefore, Lu Xianhe's statement was recognized by the majority of consumers.
However, just when everyone was applauding this, two days later, the Lu family declared bankruptcy.
The reason was that the higher-ups demanded that the Lu family pay a huge fine, which the Lu family was unable to pay and could only declare bankruptcy.
This also allowed everyone to see the true face of the Lu family.
As a result, the sound of cursing was heard everywhere. Although all the stores of Yunmeng Jinlou had been closed, there were always some angry consumers who secretly went to smash the stores, throw feces and pour paint in the dead of night.
For a time, the incident at Yunmeng Gold Tower in Haicheng caused panic in the precious metals industry.
Even other companies' gold shops were affected. Once consumers felt that there was something wrong with the gold, they would go to the shops to ask for an explanation. If the situation became serious, they would spend money to hire a testing department to conduct an inspection.
The gold jewelry business in Haicheng plummeted, and even affected other counties and cities in Chuzhou and even Jiangnan Province.
This also caused a headache for the leaders of Haicheng's precious metals department.
At the beginning, Lu Xianhe promised to pay the fine and compensate all consumers, but he has been slow to act.
In order to put pressure on him, the precious metals department seized his Yunmeng Gold Building as collateral. As long as Lu Xianhe paid enough fines, they could allow Yunmeng Gold Building to reopen.
But who would have thought that Lu Xianhe would declare bankruptcy immediately.
Played with the precious metals sector.
Now, people come to the precious metals department every day to ask for explanations.
At this time, Jiang Ning contacted the leaders of the precious metals department in time and asked to buy these gold shops, reorganize and revitalize the precious metals industry in Haicheng.
This was originally a mess and no one was willing to pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning wanted to intervene, which made the leaders of precious metals very happy.
After all, Jiang Ning's status in Haicheng is now at its peak. If he lends a hand, this matter will be much easier.
However, Jiang Ning also has conditions.
He wanted a 50% discount on the price that the gold shop was paying, and he needed to get a bank loan to make the purchase because his business had grown so large that his cash flow was tight and he couldn't use it casually.
The leader of the precious metals department is a smart man. Jiang Ning is willing to do this, so naturally he wants to give him convenience.
The owner of Yunmeng Golden Tower has gone bankrupt, and now it's a mess that no one dares to take over. It's not excessive to sell it at half the market price.
Moreover, it was reasonable for Jiang Ning to ask for a loan to pay the money.
As an entrepreneur, you can’t run a business solely based on cash flow.
Moreover, consumers are making trouble every day right now. Every day, people come to the precious metals department to demand an explanation, saying that they have not received compensation for the fake products they paid for, and this matter will not be let go.
Lu Xianhe has declared bankruptcy, so of course he has no money to pay back to consumers. The government and relevant departments cannot pay for it out of their own pockets.
Jiang Ning was willing to take action, so this request was not a request at all.
Therefore, the relevant departments contacted Lu Xianhe and told him about the transfer of Yunmeng Jinlou.
"I don't agree with this!" Lu Xianhe said, "If the gold shop is to be sold, it must be sold at the market price, and it must be real gold and silver! How can we let Jiang Ning get a bargain for nothing?"
Lu Xianhe was afraid to go back home for the time being, so he took his family and hid secretly in Tang Zhongying's villa in Jiangbei District.
At this moment he was discussing this matter with Tang Zhongying.
Tang Zhongying frowned and said, "You are bankrupt now, and the gold shop has been closed down by the relevant departments. Even if you don't sell it, the relevant departments will do everything they can to make you sell it!"
"What can they do? Are they going to kill me?" Lu Xianhe gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, I can't let Jiang Ning get away with it."
"Yes, we must not let Jiang Ning get away with it!" Tang Yushan said, "I have asked someone to check these days. Those who instigated the customers to report are the minions of the Jianghai Financial Group. It was Jiang Ning who did this. Now they want to buy at a low price. It's impossible!"
Tang Zhongying took a deep breath and winked at Tang Yushan, signaling her not to exaggerate the matter.
This is because the people who have been cheated are very emotional, including some noble ladies and wealthy people. If they continue to make trouble, they might blame the Tang family.
After all, the Tang family is also one of the partners, although they have the smallest share and the shortest cooperation time.
But there is still some relationship after all.
If Jiang Ning buys the gold shop now, the relevant departments will use the money to compensate consumers and calm public anger. This matter will come to an end and the Tang family will have peace.
Therefore, Tang Zhongying really hopes that Jiang Ning will buy the gold shop.
Although, the half-price is almost like losing money.
But there is no other way.
"Old Lu, we must sell this gold shop!" said Tang Zhongying.
"Why?" Lu Xianhe frowned.
"If someone else wants it, I might consider it, but if Jiang Ning wants it, we must sell it to him!" Tang Zhongying said, "The reputation of Yunmeng Gold House has hit rock bottom, and the precious metals industry in Jiangnan Province has also entered a slump. If Jiang Ning comes to clean up the mess at this time, it will not only be a waste of effort, but he has no experience in the precious metals industry and will definitely lose money. If we sell it to him, we are digging a hole for him!"
