"Boss, your phone is finally on! Something terrible has happened!" Chen Xiaoyue said anxiously on the phone.
Ye Feng heard this and asked, "What's wrong? What terrible thing has happened?"
"Someone is selling fish with the exact same quality as our company!" Chen Xiaoyue said in a panic.
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "Who? Someone is selling fish with the exact same quality as our company? How is that possible?"
"I'm not sure either. I only found out these past two days! They are selling it cheaper than us, and many of our partners are now terminating their cooperation, and some are even demanding refunds!" Chen Xiaoyue explained.
"Okay! I understand. I'll deal with it when I get back!"
After speaking, Ye Feng immediately called Captain Zhou and then returned with them by boat that afternoon.
When Ye Feng arrived at Poseidon Company, Chen Xiaoyue immediately told him the whole story.
It turned out that over the past three months, Ye Feng's fish had become increasingly popular. Many restaurants, eateries, hotels, supermarkets, companies, and enterprises were all scrambling to buy their fish.
Since Ye Feng's fish production was only about twenty tons a week, it was never enough to meet demand, causing prices to soar. The wholesale price had risen to fifty yuan per pound, making it more expensive than beef.
However, under the temptation of huge profits, some competitors became envious, and thus people appeared who sold fish of the same quality.
These people sold fish of the same quality as theirs, but at a lower price. This had a huge impact on their sales.
Even some companies or vendors who had signed contracts terminated their cooperation and turned to buy the cheaper catches.
Ye Feng frowned upon hearing this, "How is that possible? No one's fish can be of the exact same quality as ours!"
Others might think that there could be fish with the same quality as Ye Feng's, but Ye Feng knew how his fish came to be. They were nourished by the power of the sea god, and others could never replicate it.
However, he wasn't sure what was going on, so he said, "Don't sell this week's catch for now. I want to see who is behind this!"
"Yes, boss!"
As they were discussing, a group of people suddenly arrived at Ye Feng's Poseidon Company, shouting loudly and seemingly causing trouble.
A moment later, a staff member ran up and said, "Boss, it's bad! More people are here to get refunds!"
Ye Feng frowned upon hearing this, "What? Someone is here to get refunds?"
"That's right! They are very aggressive downstairs, saying that if we don't give them refunds, they will smash our company!" the staff member said fearfully.
Ye Feng snorted, "Outrageous, too arrogant! Let's go down and see!"
With that, Ye Feng and Chen Xiaoyue went downstairs and saw more than ten people aggressively demanding refunds.
"I'm telling you, if you don't give me a refund, I won't be polite!" said a burly man with a face full of scars.
A staff member from Poseidon Company blocked them and said angrily, "How dare you! You were the ones who rushed to buy them, and now you want to return them. What kind of logic is that!"
But the burly man refused to reason. He stepped forward and said, "I don't care, I just want to return them! Are you going to give me a refund or not?"
The staff member saw this and said angrily, "No refunds! You rushed to buy them back then, so there's no reason for a refund!"
The man sneered and beckoned to the people behind him, "Attack them! Smash this company!"
After the big man spoke, several thugs with brightly dyed hair immediately came forward.
Seeing this, the staff member knew what was going on. These guys were definitely here to cause trouble.
He couldn't let them smash the place, so he shouted, "Stop them!"
With that, the man stepped forward to block them. Seeing this, the burly man punched him directly in the face.
Just as the burly man was about to press his advantage, a dark shadow flashed, and before the burly man could react, he was sent flying.
This scene terrified everyone, and they couldn't comprehend what had happened.
"Boss?"
The employees of Poseidon Company shouted excitedly after they realized what had happened.
"Damn it, you're the boss? How dare you sneak attack me! Someone, beat them all, including their boss!" the burly man roared, clutching his chest.
Seeing this, the thugs behind him immediately swarmed forward.
"Boss, be careful!"
Chen Xiaoyue and the employees shouted anxiously.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, they're just a few mice!"
With that, Ye Feng stepped forward, one punch after another, and in a few moves, he knocked down all the thugs.
This scene stunned everyone.
The employees of Poseidon Company were instantly filled with admiration for Ye Feng and began to praise him.
"Boss is awesome!"
"Boss is mighty! Beat them to death!"
"How dare they cause trouble at our Poseidon Company, beat them to death and let them know our strength..."
After Ye Feng dealt with the thugs, he walked towards the burly man with the scarred face.
Seeing this, the man immediately panicked. He hadn't expected Ye Feng to be so skilled in fighting.
"You, what do you want?" the burly man said fearfully.
However, Ye Feng didn't respond. He grabbed him by the collar and slapped him more than a dozen times.
This directly turned the burly man's face into a pig's head, and he could barely speak clearly.
"Stop, stop! You're hitting people! Look, the boss of Poseidon Company is hitting people!" the burly man shouted repeatedly.
The onlookers saw this and began to discuss.
Ye Feng saw this, slapped him again, and then threw him to the ground.
"Everyone saw it, he made the first move! I'm just seeking justice for my employees!" Ye Feng said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although the burly man was beaten badly, he was the one who threw the first punch, so he deserved it!
"Alright, let's talk about business. What are you here for?" Ye Feng asked, looking at the crowd.
The burly man raised his swollen head and said, "Your Poseidon Company's fish is too expensive. Yongchang Fishery next door only sells it for thirty, while you sell it for fifty. We want refunds and returns!"
"Yes! You sell it too expensively, we want refunds and returns, and we want to terminate our cooperation!"
"Exactly! Your company is too greedy, selling it at such a high price..."
Ye Feng smiled and said, "You can terminate the contract! But you want refunds and returns? Not a chance!"
"Why?" someone asked, confused.
Ye Feng was amused by the question and said, "Did we force you to buy it back then? I don't recall, but you were the ones who rushed to buy it!"
"We..." The others were speechless.
Some of them knew they were in the wrong, and coupled with Ye Feng's earlier display of strength, they were even more afraid to act out.
Therefore, they said, "We can forgo the refunds and returns, but your fish is too expensive, and we want to terminate the contract!"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "You can! But remember, once you terminate the contract, Poseidon Company will never supply you with fish again..."
