Chapter 72: Breach of Contract?
Chapter 72: Breach of Contract?
"Thirty thousand..."
Xu Zenghui hesitated for a moment.
He is a calculating person who is unwilling to suffer losses; otherwise, he wouldn't be a world-renowned agent.
Having been forced to agree by Zhai Hao, he had no choice but to follow suit.
Now Chen Yuanzhou has added another 10,000...
"Okay!" Zhai Hao agreed without hesitation.
Chen Yuanzhou turned to Xu Zenghui and looked at him with a smile.
"..." Xu Zenghui was quite helpless.
It's not that he can't afford 30,000, it's just that it's hard for him to accept being taken away by Chen Yuanzhou for nothing.
If Zhai Hao also disagrees, he can simply discuss canceling the transaction with Zhai Hao, and neither party will be held responsible.
But Zhai Hao agreed so readily that he was put on hold.
"Mr. Xu~" Chen Yuanzhou said when he saw the hesitation on his face, "Everything has a cost."
"Alright~" Xu Zenghui could only frown and agree upon hearing this.
Chen Yuanzhou nodded in satisfaction: "Then please go and get the cash. I'll go and prepare the contract for you."
After watching the two leave, Chen Yuanzhou happily took the relevant documents and went upstairs to hand them over to Pan Xue'e for verification.
If it were any other full-time document processor, Chen Yuanzhou would have had to use a lot of persuasion to get these two fake certificates. Fortunately, Pan Xue'e was only filling in temporarily, which saved Chen Yuanzhou a lot of trouble.
Just as we were waiting for the contract to be printed, Li Zihao came up with two more sheets of paper.
The other clerk, seeing that the other person was holding two more sheets of paper, was stunned. He straightened his face and said very rudely, "What's wrong with you? Can't you even do this? This order has been going on since early morning, and you want to change it again?"
"Please!" Li Zihao pleaded, his face contorted in despair. "This is the last time! I'm really giving up!"
The clerk frowned as she took the document, and after glancing at it, she became even more annoyed: "What's the point of these few words being changed? What's wrong with taking possession of the property seven working days after the loan is disbursed? Do you really have to add the date?"
Li Zihao explained with a forced smile, "The client's statement about seven working days after loan disbursement is ambiguous; they didn't clarify whether the day of disbursement counts as a working day..."
"..."
Chen Yuanzhou, listening from the side, almost laughed. Dealing with someone who nitpicks over words like this is truly a disaster!
In reality, as long as the identity information and amount are correct in the contract, everything else is just a standard template and there won't be any problems.
After all, the housing management bureau's contracts are drafted by specialists, so how could there be loopholes?
He thought for a moment and then said, "How about I give you an idea?"
"Huh?" Li Zihao was taken aback. He thought that Chen Yuanzhou could close six deals a month, so maybe he really had some good ideas. He nodded and asked, "What idea?"
"Just tell them that the original terms will remain unchanged, and ask both parties if they want to sign. If they don't, then they should go home and sign it when they've thought it through!"
Li Zihao frowned as he listened: "How can that be? They're so good at making things up, they have all sorts of theories..."
"Trust me! Just say it like that! Otherwise, you won't finish signing this deal by tonight."
Seeing Chen Yuanzhou's confidence, Li Zihao thought for a moment. This contract had indeed been dragging on for six or seven hours, and he was really losing patience, so he decided to go for it and went downstairs.
Ten minutes later, he returned with the signed contract to have it stamped, giving Chen Yuanzhou a thumbs-up: "Awesome! They actually agreed to it the way you taught me. If I had known this would happen, I would have said so earlier."
Chen Yuanzhou shrugged and smiled without saying a word.
In fact, highly educated clients like these can be very troublesome. They can go through the contract word by word and insist on buying a dictionary on the spot to verify their claims.
It can be described as simple, and it is very simple!
As long as you firmly state that those contents cannot be changed, they will have no way to reason with you and will naturally compromise.
After this incident, Li Zihao felt that Chen Yuanzhou was even more unfathomable!
He solved problems he couldn't handle with just a few words...
He's truly a formidable opponent!
……
After Chen Yuanzhou finished writing the contract, he went downstairs. Just then, Xu Zenghui and Zhai Hao returned, each carrying a bulging bank envelope, which they handed to Chen Yuanzhou.
Chen Yuanzhou accepted this extra income without hesitation.
Things went very smoothly after that, including the quick signing of the contracts between Ye Xiuxue and Fan Wenli.
After seeing everyone off, all the work for the month was finished, and Chen Yuanzhou finally had some free time to prepare for selling the pre-sale apartments.
This is the most important job in his mind right now!
After all, a single pre-sale apartment could potentially generate hundreds of thousands in revenue, making it far more efficient than the arduous task of signing contracts and achieving sales targets!
With this in mind, upon returning to the store, Chen Yuanzhou dialed Wu Shihao's number before even entering the door…
"Hello!"
However, it wasn't Wu Shihao who answered the phone, but a woman's voice. She spoke politely, but her tone was very flat.
"Um..." Chen Yuanzhou asked, "This is Chen Yuanzhou. Is Mr. Wu here?"
"Oh, Manager Chen! General Manager Wu is reporting to the chairman right now, so it's not convenient. I'm Ge Jiaqi. You can tell me what's wrong, and I'll pass it on to him later."
Upon hearing that it was the marketing vice president of Qinghu Renjia whom he had met the previous night, Chen Yuanzhou said directly, "It's like this, didn't we agree last night to subscribe to another unit? I'd like to add another one."
"..." There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone before Ge Jiaqi replied, "Manager Chen, this is making our job very difficult."
"Moreover, the chairman heard about this today and is already somewhat dissatisfied with Mr. Wu. Right now, he is explaining the cooperation with you to the chairman."
Hearing her words, Chen Yuanzhou wondered if Wu Shihao had been scolded and if she was reluctant to help him.
This reminded him of their meeting last night, when she was very cold and didn't say a word the whole time, so she probably didn't support the collaboration.
"Vice President Ge!" Chen Yuanzhou emphasized the word "Vice President" and said seriously, "This is a collaboration between me and President Wu. As his deputy, you just need to cooperate well."
"You..." Ge Jiaqi was speechless for a moment, then said helplessly and angrily, "I will pass on the message to President Wu."
She hung up the phone immediately after saying that.
Chen Yuanzhou frowned, put away his phone, and shook his head, unable to understand where this vice president's temper came from.
Meanwhile, in the conference room of Qinghu Renjia's sales office, Wu Shihao sat next to Chairman Wu Jianye and earnestly explained, "Although we did not communicate with you in advance about this cooperation, I believe it is a rare opportunity. As long as it is handled properly, it will definitely have a very good effect."
"Nonsense!" Wu Jianye said with great displeasure, "Shihao, I entrusted the entire sales and marketing of the property to you because I thought you were reliable and responsible."
"You've got some nerve, partnering with a real estate agent? If you were fully collaborating with Zhuowu Company, that would be somewhat understandable, but what kind of influence can a single agent have?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Shihao wanted to explain further, but Wu Jianye raised his hand to stop him: "In short, the agreement you signed is invalid! It's seven days. If that agent doesn't come to sign the contract seven days after the opening, we'll pursue his breach of contract liability directly!"
After Wu Jianye finished speaking, he stood up and left without giving Wu Shihao a chance to explain.
"Sigh~" Wu Shihao sat there blankly, feeling a little uneasy.
He was a little confused. His uncle, the chairman, had always been very supportive of his wildly imaginative marketing methods, and the facts had proven that his strategies had never been wrong.
But what's wrong with me today?
Just as he was feeling down, Ge Jiaqi walked in.
"What's up?" Wu Shihao asked, turning his head.
Ge Jiaqi asked softly with concern, "Did the chairman reprimand you about the cooperation?"
"..." Wu Shihao said with a wry smile, "The chairman wants to tear up the cooperation."
Seeing this, Ge Jiaqi curled her lips and said, "I also think this kind of unorthodox method is unreliable! Ha~ that Chen Yuanzhou is also ridiculous. He just called to say that he wanted to reserve another detached house."
"Doesn't he even consider the current market conditions? We have so many guys, and our customer acquisition efforts are barely working. He still wants to sell pre-sale apartments? That's just wishful thinking!"
"?" Wu Shihao frowned immediately. "Are you saying my judgment was flawed?"
Ge Jiaqi hurriedly said, "Of course not. This was the cooperation he proposed. You were just too anxious about sales, which is why you made a mistake. Since the chairman has spoken, I think we should make things clear with him. Even if we have to refund his deposit now, it's fine as long as it's resolved before the opening. The units can still be released for normal sale."
Upon hearing this, Wu Shihao's face immediately darkened!
As for him, he felt extremely guilty that the agreement he had previously agreed to sign with Chen Yuanzhou had been unilaterally torn up by the chairman.
Now he is genuinely worried about what will happen if Chen Yuanzhou is held liable for breach of contract.
Since he had promised to do it, he believed that he couldn't let Chen Yuanzhou suffer any loss when the time came!
But Ge Jiaqi made herself withdraw from the betting early?
This goes against Wu Shihao's principles of conduct.
However, Ge Jiaqi added, "President Wu, the chairman's son will graduate from university next year and is already interning at the company. He's definitely preparing to take over. At this crucial juncture, you absolutely mustn't disobey the chairman, otherwise your future situation will be very awkward!"
"That's my business!" Wu Shihao said angrily. "You don't need to worry about it! Just do your job well."
After saying that, he snatched his phone from Ge Jiaqi's hand: "Also, don't answer my calls randomly in the future!"
"Mr. Wu~" Ge Jiaqi wanted to explain, but Wu Shihao had already gotten up and left, leaving her feeling very wronged.
I was clearly thinking of him, so how did I become the bad guy?
She had always thought Chen Yuanzhou was unreliable, and now that he had caused her beloved to be reprimanded by the chairman, her feelings towards Chen Yuanzhou had become even worse!
Back in his office, Wu Shihao immediately called Chen Yuanzhou back and explained the current situation…
"If you find it difficult," he said sincerely at the end, "it's not too late to give up now, at least there won't be any loss. Otherwise, if things happen later... I won't be able to control the situation."
"As compensation for breach of contract, you can request it, and I will personally compensate you!"
After listening to Wu Shihao's words, Chen Yuanzhou thought for a moment, then chuckled and said, "It's alright, let's go with seven days then."
"Oh, and remember to reserve another one for me!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Shihao asked, puzzled, "Are you going to continue?"
"That's right!" Chen Yuanzhou laughed heartily. "Don't worry! Everything is under control!"
