Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Cut the Weeds and Remove the Roots_1

Yesterday night’s fire at the New Sun Market had a considerable impact.

The next day, quite a few Chinese businessmen came to the Management office for inquiries, some even wanted to terminate their contracts!

Early in the morning, as soon as Big Head Kong arrived at the Management office, he was surrounded by a large group of Chinese businessmen.

"President Kong, you guaranteed that the New Sun Market would be absolutely safe, but look what happened, the market nearly got burnt down. How can we trust what you say?"

"Exactly, although the Old ACT Market is also chaotic, at least things like this don’t happen! This is too outrageous."

"Perhaps I should terminate my contract. I am scared to set up a shop here. What if my goods get burnt? I wouldn’t even be able to cry."

" I also want to terminate my contract. It feels better to do business peacefully and make money. I don’t want to get involved in these troubles."...

Big Head Kong, bothered by all the noise around him, waved his arms and shouted loudly, "Everyone silence! Silence! Listen up! If after I finish speaking, you still have concerns or want to terminate your contracts, it’s not too late."

Gradually, everyone calmed down. Big Head Kong asked a staff member to bring him a small megaphone and started to explain:

"No one could have predicted what happened yesterday night, no one wanted it!"

"But now that it has happened, what we need to do is resolve and manage it."

"As for the resolution, all I can say is watch. Our President has already declared that such incidents will never happen again!"

"As for the management, only one store had their goods burnt down. All the losses will be compensated by our company according to market prices! In case such a situation happens again in the future, it will be handled the same way. We won’t let you guys suffer any losses. Are you guys reassured now?"

"Finally, I would like to emphasize once again, there are people who are causing trouble, you all understand this. But our Group has the determination and the ability to handle it well. Please rest assured!"

"Now, anyone who still wishes to terminate their contract can consult with the staff to queue up. But don’t blame me for not reminding you all. New Sun Market Phase I has a total of three thousand and five hundred stalls, and almost all of them have been rented out. There are still many people who want to rent a stall. If you give up your lease today, and regret it later and want to rent a stall again, I’m sorry, but there will be no vacant stalls for you then."...

After being told off by Big Head Kong, the scene fell silent. The whining Chinese businessman also stopped talking.

Yes, a booth in the New Sun Market is indeed hard to find!

The main reason - it is free of charge...

The New Sun Group lends you a booth for free, has various security measures in place, and even promises to compensate for any personal or property damage that occurs in the market!

You wouldn’t dare to dream about this at the ACT Market!

What more could you possibly ask for?

Besides, with the market just open, a little trouble is to be expected. Maybe it’s just something competitors are causing. As long as the New Sun Group can handle the situation, there will be no issues.

Seeing that everyone’s vigilance was lowered, Big Head Kong opened his mouth again: "Given what happened last night, our Group will continue to expand the scale of our security team to ensure 24-hour patrol of the entire market. Also, the Group and the police have come to an agreement. The police will patrol around, but strictly within the New Sun Market. ACT Market won’t have this."

He didn’t miss the chance to throw in a dig at ACT...

.........

The Chinese businessmen gathered here gradually left, after all, everyone is busy and there is much to do.

Big Head Kong wiped the sweat from his forehead. Just as he was about to return to his office, he saw another vice president, Ivan, coming over and hurried to greet him.

"Mr. Ivan, glad you returned. There’s been trouble at the market over the past couple of days."

Ivan has not been to the market these past few days as he had been busy with customs clearance. The New Sun Group also owns its logistics clearance company, which brings in big bucks!

Still trying to mend some relationships, Ivan was busy dealing with all that.

"What happened?" Ivan asked in surprise.

"Come with me to my office, I’ll tell you all about it." Big Head Kong dragged Ivan to his office and recounted all the events of the past two days.

This included conflicts with the Caucasus Gang and the retaliatory arson.

In the end, he sighed and said, "Mr. Ivan, please persuade our President. I think he is too young and aggressive that he doesn’t understand when to back off. You know, sometimes backing off does not mean cowardice. It just means a better way to go forward! We are in the market to do business, why do we have to confront those desperadoes..."

Before he could finish, Ivan interrupted him.

"I think Mr. Mikhail is doing the right thing. To deal with the Caucasus people, you have to be tougher than them! Otherwise, they think you are weak and exploitable, and will become increasingly unreasonable! The right way is to hit them so hard that they are scared off, never daring to provoke us again. However, involving the police was indeed not a good idea, after all, they are subject to many restrictions."

Big Head Kong was shocked. He didn’t expect Ivan to be like Wang Ye, both liking to cause trouble...

"Did the President arrive yet? I need to report about my work to him." Ivan asked again.

"Not yet, he usually doesn’t come this early. He usually comes during noon or in the afternoon." Big Head Kong quickly replied.

......

Indeed, Wang Ye hadn’t arrived. He was still at the top-floor suite of the Xiao Ying Hotel.

But he was not dealing with Xiao Ying Hotel’s work, instead, he was talking to Anton.

Anton had just rushed back this morning, having driven back overnight.

"Mr. Mikhail, I have found the men. There are eight of them in total. I temporarily bought two secondhand Lada cars for their transportation back in my hometown. I have arranged for them in a small hotel in the suburbs. The moment you give the order, they can be on their way at any point," Anton reported to Wang Ye.

"Do they have weapons?" Wang Ye gestured.

"Hah, of course, they do. They have plenty of real weapons themselves. Frankly, they could take down a few Russians, not just that, this team could perform behind enemy lines!" Anton joked.

Wang Ye certainly believed that.

After all, the men Anton found were elite soldiers who had experienced the Car City War!

"Great, let them rest and gather their energy during the day. They will have work to do tonight!" Wang Ye said calmly.

Now, he was not hesitant anymore.

Since Lokayev considers him an enemy, he wouldn’t show mercy either. When cutting grass, one has to pull out the roots!

He also planned not to let Lokayev live to see tomorrow’s sun...
