Chapter 364: Asking for Help
The next morning, another batch and reinforced concrete arrived.
The amount is very large, and there will be no shortage in the short term.
And Feng Minghui, who left, did not see any signs of action.
However, Xu Qiang received a call at noon, a call that surprised him very much, it was Liu Gang and Boss Liu, who were responsible for supplying steel.
"You want me to go out to see you?" to Xu Qiang's surprise, Liu Gang actually asked to meet him, saying that he had something very important to discuss.
"Yes!"
"You can come to my office and talk!"
"Mr. Xu, even if I beg you, I'm really inconvenient now, if I go to your office and be seen by others, I'll be in big trouble, please come and see me, okay?"
"Can't you say it on the phone?"
"It's inconvenient to say!"
"Okay, you wait!" Under Liu Gang's bitter pleading, Xu Qiang decided to go out to meet and see what Liu Gang wanted to say?
Because judging from Liu Gang's tone, Liu Gang seems to be in trouble, and the trouble he encountered may be related to the Han Group.
Soon in the hotel private room diagonally opposite, Xu Qiang saw Liu Gang, Liu Gang ordered a table of good wine and food, and Xu Qiang served the food as soon as he arrived.
"Mr. Xu, I was offended before, and I will make amends to you!" Liu Gang poured himself three glasses of liquor, and three glasses in a row were dry.
Xu Qiang's brows furrowed slightly, a bit like a bitter meat trick.
As soon as he came up, he punished himself with three cups, which didn't seem like a simple apology at all, but he asked Xu Qiang for it, and he punished himself three cups first to make Xu Qiang's heart soft.
"Just tell me anything!"
"Mr. Xu, look at the liquidated damages, can the liquidated damages be negotiated?" Liu Gang finally said his purpose, it turned out to be about liquidated damages.
In the contract they signed with Han, no matter which party breached the contract first, they had to pay a considerable amount of liquidated damages.
Liu Gang breached the contract first, and of course he had to pay liquidated damages.
It's just that until now, the liquidated damages have not reached Han's account.
However, if there is a contract, it is impossible to rely on liquidated damages.
Otherwise, it is completely possible to apply for enforcement and transfer it directly from their bank account without their consent at all.
"Your sudden breach of contract will seriously affect the construction of the Han Clan, of course you have to pay liquidated damages to make up for the losses you brought to the Han Clan, there is nothing to discuss!" Xu Qiang sneered and shook his head.
Fortunately, the supplier was found in time, and the project was not stopped.
Otherwise, if the work is stopped, it will bring very big losses.
"If I supply to Han immediately, can I not pay liquidated damages?"
"Liquidated damages must be paid!" Xu Qiang shook his head.
"If I give you something you want, can the liquidated damages be waived?" Seeing that Xu Qiang's oil and salt did not enter, he neither agreed to waive the liquidated damages nor agreed to re-supply, Liu Gang was really anxious.
suddenly punished himself three glasses again, but in Xu Qiang's opinion, he was not self-punishing, but borrowing wine to strengthen his courage and want to make an important decision.
Sure enough, as Xu Qiang expected, after punishing himself with three glasses of high spirits again, with a mouth full of alcohol, Liu Gang asked a question.
"Do you know what I want?" asked Xu Qiang amusedly.
"Of course I know, the predicament that the Han clan is facing now is caused by Shang Zhijie, there must be a contradiction between you, otherwise he will not be scheming to deal with you, I think you must want to clean him up, the evidence I gave you is the evidence that can make Shang Zhijie unlucky!"
"Do you really have evidence?" Xu Qiang's eyes lit up.
If there is really evidence, it is not impossible to waive the liquidated damages, after all, for Xu Qiang and Han, Liu Gang has not much liquidated damages to pay.
But for Liu Gang, the liquidated damages he wants to pay to Han are very painful for him, especially now that his capital chain is tight, and it may even lead to his bankruptcy.
"If there is evidence, can you waive my liquidated damages?"
"No, I can't set this precedent!"
"Then there is no evidence!"
"Don't worry, I can't waive the liquidated damages for you, but I can give you a certain amount of compensation, which is equivalent to liquidated damages!"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, I can transfer money to you first, but I warn you, once I transfer money first, you must give me valid evidence, otherwise you will definitely not be able to afford my means!" Xu Qiang took out his mobile phone.
transferred, and the funds were immediately in Liu Gang's hands.
Xu Qiang hates liars, if Liu Gang cheats him, he will use special means to get back the money that Liu Gang cheated with interest, and will make Liu Gang pay the price.
Liu Gang was happy and took out his mobile phone directly.
Find one of the videos and play it.
The video is not very clear, but it is enough to see the content.
It was a gathering of some people, and it was Shang Zhijie who sat in the first place.
"Everyone, I invite you to come today, I ask you to do me a favor......" Shang Zhijie's voice was very clear, and Xu Qiang could hear it clearly.
The content of his speech is also very simple, that is, let Xu Qiang's building materials supplier cut off the supply to Xu Qiang, and if there is a liquidated damages, he will bear it.
If he keeps dropping the supply to Xu Qiang, he will be his enemy.
He warned those who did not stop the goods that they would be suppressed by him in many ways, and as a result, those present said that they would cut off the goods to Han.
Xu Qiang took a look at the people who appeared in the camera, most of them unilaterally terminated the contract with Han, which was obviously the result of this conversation.
"You're cunning enough to secretly record the video!" Xu Qiang could see that he was secretive about the route, and he was afraid that the people involved in the party would find out.
Despite the secrecy, what should have been recorded was recorded.
"At the time, it was just a flash of inspiration, but I didn't expect it to really come in handy!"
"I don't understand, Shang Zhijie has already promised to help you pay liquidated damages, and even promised to help you sell excess members, why do you still want to discuss liquidated damages with me?" Xu Qiang asked curiously.
"Don't mention it, he said one thing and do another, said to help us pay liquidated damages, help us sell excess goods, in fact, after we breached the contract, we couldn't get liquidated damages at all, I went to him three times in a row, only the first time I saw him, he promised to be in place as soon as possible, the last two times I didn't see him, I only saw his secretary, and the last time I was kicked out by the security guard!" Liu Gang poured down a glass of liquor.
Xu Qiang understood that the cash in Liu Gang's hand was not enough to pay the liquidated damages, but if he did not pay the liquidated damages, he would be sued by the Han family.
It's just that Xu Qiang has a little doubt, Shang Zhijie won't be so short-sighted, right?
The amount of liquidated damages is not very high, and for a big family like the merchant, even if it is very easy to pay liquidated damages for Liu Gang and all of them.
It's just that Shang Zhijie didn't help them pay liquidated damages, which is a bit abnormal.
"Is it because everyone didn't get the liquidated damages given by Shang Zhijie?"
"No, it seems that some people have gotten it!"
"Why does he still have a choice?"
"I don't know about this, Mr. Xu, you see that I have already given you the evidence, can you let me continue to supply Han?" Liu Gang said.
"You don't have the pressure of liquidated damages, why do you still need to supply Han's?"
"To tell you the truth, the steel I was originally going to supply you is now all backlogged in my hands, and other companies are not as in demand as Han's at all, so I can't eat it, not to mention that they have their own suppliers, I can't plug it in at all, and now I put it in the warehouse, and it costs a lot of money every day!" Liu Gang told the truth, pretending to be pitiful in front of Xu Qiang.
He was really afraid that this batch of steel would be smashed in his hands, and if he couldn't continue to supply Han, he could only deal with it at a low price, and he would definitely lose a lot of money.
"I'm approved, you can continue to supply Han's, but the contract needs to be re-signed, I will double the liquidated damages, and the price will be lower than the current price, do you agree?" Xu Qiang nodded.
Let Liu Gang continue to supply to Han, of course, the conditions need to be stricter, in case he cuts off the supply again, and he will not be the only supplier, he will only become one of the steel suppliers.
Liu Gang was very helpless, so he could only agree.
Everything is self-inflicted, who can blame?
Thinking of this, he hated Shang Zhijie, and the roots of his teeth itched.
If it weren't for Shang Zhijie's disobedience to the agreement and the fulfillment of his promise, he would not have ended up today, and he would definitely have suffered a small loss.
At Xu Qiang's behest, Han re-signed the contract with Liu Gang.
On the basis of the original contract, the liquidated damages were doubled, and the time requirements for delivery were more stringent, even so Liu Gang could only accept it.
Liu Gang left, an unexpected guest came, Feng Minghui came to Han with a smile on his face, and happened to be met by Xu Qiang, who had just come out of the bathroom.
"Are you here to announce the ban order?" asked Xu Qiang with a smile.
"You're joking, can you come to your office to talk?" Today's Feng Minghui and yesterday's Feng Minghui, although they are obviously the same person, they can behave completely differently.
Yesterday's Feng Minghui was like a debt collector.
Today's Feng Minghui is like a grandson with a smile on his face.
"Say, what's the matter?" Xu Qiang sat down after returning to the office.
"Mr. Xu, it was all my fault yesterday, I was confused for a while, and please have a lot of them, just treat me as if I didn't come yesterday, okay?" Feng Minghui immediately nodded.
What's the situation?
Xu Qiang was a little shocked, is this a special trip to apologize?
"You are an officer of the business association, you can ban our Han clan with one sentence, let me forgive you, you are talking the opposite, right?"
"Mr. Xu, everything is my fault, Vice President Dongfang has already scolded me fiercely, I know my mistake!" Seeing that Xu Qiang refused to forgive him, Feng Minghui was really a little anxious.
Vice President of the East?
"Are you talking about Vice President Dongfang Liang?" asked Xu Qiang.
The vice president of the business association he knows has only one Dongfang Liang.
A few days ago, Dongfang Liang came to Xu Qiang and asked him to help Tyne with the operation, which was very successful, making Dongfang Liang very grateful to Xu Qiang.
even promised Xu Qiang that he could find him if he had any difficulties.
"It's Vice President Dongfang Liang, I didn't know that you were his friend, it was the flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, if I had known that you were Vice President Dongfang's friend, I wouldn't have ...... In short, everything is my fault, and please have a lot of them, don't worry about me in general!" Feng Minghui resounded the scolding he had received this morning.
He asked Dongfang Liang this morning to teach Han a lesson.
As a result, Dongfang Liang directly scolded him, warning him that the business association is just a commercial organization, and he has no right to ban anyone at all.
Leaving Dongfang Liang's office, he found a secretary of Dongfang Liang, who had a good relationship with him, and asked the reason.
The secretary told him that Dongfang Liang and Xu Qiang had a good relationship, which made Feng Minghui suddenly realize that he had provoked the vice president's friend.
He immediately panicked, he was just a small officer, Dongfang Liang could kick him out of the business association with a single move.
