Chapter 11, The Beginning of Cruel Competition

Vienna in June is full of greenery and blooming flowers, like a fairyland on earth - of course, this is impossible, and Vienna in the 21st century is similar.

After entering June, the competition in the retail industry has become more and more fierce, and the competition among the major supermarkets has also affected Chiyu, one by one traditional grocery stores, were forced to close their doors.

The prosperous Vienna suddenly slumped a lot, and the streets were covered with advertisements for transfers, and only a few small shops were still open. Countless small shops engaged in the sales of daily necessities are faced with a choice, either to change their careers or to close their doors.

In the capitalist world, the whole body is affected. - Das Kapital

In the future, many supermarkets will not be able to support it, and flexible-minded capitalists will choose to transform. Since I made a loss in selling daily necessities, I would sell other things, such as changing into a clothing city, or entering the catering industry and starting a buffet.

With the popularity accumulated before, the business was booming for a while, and more people were encouraged to join in. Many sales industries in Vienna were in chaos.

The volatility in the market soon spread to the financial market. A small-scale economic crisis broke out in Vienna. Speculators would naturally not show mercy, and the storm was coming.

Of course, that is the future. The fluctuations in the market will take time to ferment, and now it is only limited to the competition in the retail industry.

Cottfei is now fully funded, and Robert is even more confident. He still doesn't know that he has been targeted by the Falcon.

Mr. Cameron, how long do you think it will take to end this war? Robert said enthusiastically

If the current situation is maintained, the number of supermarkets in Vienna may be reduced by one-third by next month, and by half again in half a year. By then, everyone will be exhausted, and those who survive will be strong. With fewer competitors, this price war will stop! Cameron analyzed

No, shareholders who have been losing money for a long time will have opinions, and now it has spread to department stores, which will affect our listing plan! Robert rejected this suggestion

Then it will only intensify the price war, and our losses will be huge! Cameron said with a frown.

Then continue to drop. I hope to end the battle within three months. At all costs, kill the gang of trash, and then earn back the money we lost! Robert said fiercely

Following Robert smiled knowingly, he thought of a clever plan and said, The retail prices of goods in supermarkets are lower than our current purchase prices. You can secretly send someone to other supermarkets to purchase.

It can fight opponents and reduce procurement costs! Remember to keep it secret. If they are discovered, it will be troublesome for them to follow suit.

Okay sir, as you wish, today I will lower the price by 10%, maybe I can scare off a few trash fish! Cameron said with a smile

The retail market is wailing again, and Volvo is required to print Volvo exclusives on most of its products because of its size.

In order to avoid exposure, the goods bought from Volvo had to be repackaged. After trying it, Robert had to give up.

Then other supermarkets went to Damou, and suffered heavy losses for a while, but they were soon discovered by Ferdinand, and Cotefei's purchases in Shuanghui Food Group decreased.

Ferdinand smiled knowingly and thought to himself, Robert is killing him. He will soon know what is being targeted!

Volvo can do it, it is large enough to be amortized everywhere, and it is only aimed at the Cotefei family, even if Ferdinand is exposed.

Don't look at the strength of those small capitalists, if they all move, even Ferdinand will be afraid of three points.

Ferdinand didn't hesitate, but just let people release the news that Kurt Fei's purchases were reduced. I believe that as long as you are not a fool, you will know that there is a problem.

Sure enough, it didn't take long,

He was imitated by shrewd capitalists and sent someone directly to the Cote Fischer supermarket to pick up the goods, causing Cameron to be in a hurry.

Capitalists with backgrounds have also used a lot of connections to add blockage to Caterpillar. For example, Caterpillar's department store is often cut off from water and electricity.

Of course, a few thugs would occasionally pop up to make trouble, and even when it was intense, people were killed.

Everyone knows that the Caterpillar department store is losing money, and they all aim at the department store in a tacit understanding. Of course, this is also the secret guidance of Ferdinand.

In half a month, bombs were dropped at Robert's house twice, and he was ambushed three times on the road, and members of the Held family were not less frequented.

The employees of the Caterpillar Department Store have also been implicated. Not a few people have been beaten by sap, and there are countless people who have asked for leave, and they have resigned without approval.

As expected of a qualified capitalist, it seems that the Held family has not encountered it for the first time.

Security measures were tightened, and while looking for connections to put pressure on the police station, the chaos was quickly subsided, but their bad reputation was getting worse.

In order to quell this trouble, in just one month, Carter paid a high price of 200,000 pounds.

The loss of department stores can only be regarded as ordinary, only a mere 40,000 pounds. And department stores are now in a state of loss due to a sharp drop in the flow of people.

The biggest expenditure is naturally public relations. If you want to find a relationship, of course you have to spend money! When encountering such a fat sheep, who does not come to bite, is that still an official of the Austro-Hungarian Empire?

Of course, this matter is not over yet, and the official came forward to suppress it, but the competition continues! Now, not only supermarkets are losing money, but even department stores are also losing money. No one can stand it if they can't get in or out!

James was forced to go out, and quickly stabilized the department store. He knew that he was targeted this time. Otherwise, if there was no one to guide him, how could he have targeted the store instead of the supermarket?

James of Lao Jianghu quickly locked the target, looked at it and said, Robert, prepare to close the department store, we will admit defeat!

Why uncle? They can't hold it anymore, so they are so crazy! Robert said reluctantly

The opponent has not yet exerted its strength, and it has hurt our vitality. If we continue, I am afraid that the Held family will cease to exist! James said with emotion.

You mean, the Kohari family has shot at us? Robert asked uncertainly

James shook his head and said, Not yet, otherwise, this incident could kill us! It is estimated that at most, it was the hands and feet of that guy from Ferranz, and we can't say for sure!

It's not that Ferdinand doesn't want to take action, it's mainly because of his reputation. If he shoots now, isn't that telling the world, is this what he did?

However, this does not mean that Ferranz will also sit on the sidelines. If you don't do it, it's deadly.
