Chapter 612 Take action
On the next day, more than a dozen Pei family restaurants in the city suddenly opened, offering free meals on that day as long as you didn't waste anything.
That day, the restaurant was packed with people and received countless guests.
In just one day, the reputation of Pei's Restaurant spread throughout the city. The food was already unique, and with the Song's restaurant as a backdrop, it received almost all positive reviews. The restaurant was packed with people, and the noise spread throughout the streets.
Overnight, no one visited the Song Family Restaurant anymore.
Occasionally there are some, and they are from the Song family or people who are on good terms with the Song family.
There is no way. Not only is the taste of the Song family's food inferior to theirs, but the price is also inferior. Unless you are stupid, you will not choose the Song family.
Song Hongyang looked at the bills showing losses day and night, veins popping out on his forehead. He slammed the table and lowered the price of the restaurant's meals to half of Pei's, hoping to barely make a profit.
But even so, there were still very few people in the restaurant. It was because the Song family's behavior was despicable, and the taste was different, so naturally people were unwilling to go.
"This Pei family is really too much! It was agreed that the restaurant industry was under the jurisdiction of my Song family, but they ended up interfering and stealing my business! Such despicable people are really despicable!"
Song Hongyang suddenly overturned the table in front of him. He couldn't accept the losses for more than ten consecutive days.
Although the major families have never divided up on paper who is responsible for which industry, over the years, it has become a rule that each person gets which piece of the cake.
These days, the Song family and the Gong family wanted to replace the Pei family, and they secretly broke the rules many times. The Pei family suffered a loss and did not say anything, thinking that the other party had given in, but who knew that something big would happen all of a sudden.
As a result, not only did the Song family lose half of their annual income, but they were also losing money.
"Master Song, calm down."
"The Pei family is a bunch of despicable villains. Why bother with them?"
"They rob ours, so we rob theirs."
Several middle-aged men said, all of them were wearing brocade clothes, they were the patriarchs of several families in the city that were on good terms with the Song family. Tonight they received a message from Song Hong and Yang Dexin, so they came to discuss countermeasures.
"Patriarch Song, since the Pei family has openly torn their faces with us, then we should not be polite to them. Let's join forces with several families to seize all the assets of the Pei family!"
Gong Yuanqi said indignantly, but secretly delighted in his heart. This time the Gong family suffered no loss, and they also had a reason to deal with the Pei family.
"Yes! Chief Song, if you need anything, just let us know. We will do our best to help you."
The remaining major families also expressed their opinions.
Song Hongyang took a deep breath, but the anger on his face still did not dissipate. He said:
"With the help of several people, I feel confident. As for the restaurant, I don't know what method the Pei family used to make the food delicious. I can't compete with them, so I can only think of ways from other places first."
Song Qiuzhu, who had been listening, stood up and said:
"Dad, I have a plan."
"explain."
"The Song family and the Pei family have always owned half of the textile industry in the city. We will directly collect all the raw materials needed for textile production. In this way, the Pei family's textile factory will be out of materials and will have to stop production soon. By then, their textile factory will suffer losses day and night and will go bankrupt sooner or later. We can take the opportunity to expand."
Song Qiuzhu spoke up.
"Good idea! There's no time to lose, Qiu Zhu, do it right away."
Song Hongyang said immediately, "As long as we take over all the textile industries in the city, the losses of the restaurant will be fully recovered."
"The Song family is in trouble, we have to help. In addition to the textile business, the Pei family will also share the porcelain business with my family. Starting tomorrow, I will lower the price of the family's porcelain by 20%, so that the Pei family will not be able to sell it."
"The Pei family also makes wine, and I happen to know a family that runs a winery in the neighboring county. I'll do a loss-making deal, buy at 80% off the original price, and bankrupt the Pei family's winemaking business. But we agreed in advance that the profits from this business will belong to me."
Everyone talked one after another, and in just a moment, the Pei family's assets were divided up.
Song Hongyang's face also looked much better. If all the families took action together, all the industries of the Pei family would come to a standstill. If they wanted to continue, they would have to lose money.
Even though the Pei family is wealthy and powerful, so many families working together can quickly bring it down.
"Since we are going to do it, let's not hide our incompetence. Call all the other families and discuss the division of the land."
Song Hongyang said that if we unite more families, even if we divide the industries less, the risks can be minimized.
The Pei family has been in Midnight City for so many years and has a deep foundation, so he must act carefully.
"I will go there in person and call the patriarchs of the other families to discuss the matter."
Gong Yuanqi stood up and spoke to everyone.
"Then I'll trouble you, Patriarch Gong. Thank you for your help this time. The Song family will reward you handsomely after the task is completed. Go get some good wine and delicious food to reward you, Patriarchs."
Song Hongyang spoke, and the slave at the door responded and left. Not long after, plates of food were served on the table.
Logically speaking, everyone should be hungry in the second half of the night, but they were not in a good mood to eat. They had been eating and drinking at Pei's restaurant for the past few days, and compared with the food there, the food at Song's restaurant was tasteless.
Fortunately, the wine was delicious and not too strong, so everyone was in the mood to drink.
"Come on, let's have another drink."
Song Hongyang started to pour wine, but he only poured half a bowl and the jar was empty. The other clan leaders poured wine and the result was the same.
Looking at the food on the table, it was largely untouched, and the situation suddenly became awkward.
Just when someone was about to step out to smooth things over, hurried footsteps were heard, and Song Qiuzhu was seen running back, leaning against the door, panting.
"Dad, it's not good."
"what happened!"
Song Hongyang stood up and took a few steps forward to ask. Although his son was a bit of a playboy, he was reliable. If nothing serious had happened, he would never have been like this.
"Something bad has happened! I rushed to the farmers' homes overnight, but the silk and hemp they had were bought by the Pei family two days ago."
Hearing this, Song Hongyang's face turned completely gloomy.
"What about the farmers who have been selling to us?"
"They also sold them all to the Pei family. The Pei family directly offered a price that was 20% higher than the original price. In addition, we still owed them money, so they gave them all to the Pei family without a second thought..."
Seeing Song Hongyang's unhappy expression, Song Qiuzhu lowered her voice a lot.
"Assholes, a bunch of assholes!"
Song Hongyang was furious. The Song family only had two businesses, the restaurant and the textile business. Without the restaurant, they were already in ruins. Now they wanted to take over the textile business, but who would have thought that the Pei family would get there first.
His Song family only had a few small businesses that could generate profits, but they were far from enough to fill the huge hole caused by the losses in the restaurant and textile industries.
The heads of the other families, who were originally full of vigor and vitality, now began to play dumb one by one.
The Pei family's restaurant business is unshakable, and the textile industry has bought up all the raw materials, so it will be no problem to survive for a year or two. These two industries have been profitable, and it will be much more difficult for them to bring down the Pei family.
If you are not sure, you will get yourself into trouble.
