Son-in-Law Is a Medical Genius novel Chapter 425
Then, the rest of them followed suit, clamoring to increase their prices by 5%.
Sasha was swayed. With the price increase, we will be able to earn a lot from this!
However, Matthew shook his head without hesitation. “I’m sorry. I’m afraid I cannot allow ourselves to breach our contract just because of a 5% price increase.”
They exchanged glances again. They could tell that Matthew was not satisfied with the price they offered.
Thus, Theodore gritted his teeth. “Then… 10%!”
Matthew continued to shake his head.
In response, Theodore’s expression changed slightly. “Mr. Larson, h-how much do you want?”
Matthew smiled and stretched out two fingers.
Everybody was shocked. “20%?! Mr. Larson, t-that price is too high! We won’t be able to make a profit at all!”
However, Matthew shook his head. “I wasn’t talking about 20%! I meant double the price!”
Their eyes widened in shock. We can’t even bring ourselves to accept a 20% increase. But, double?! Impossible!
Hence, Theodore hurriedly replied, “Mr. Larson, even if we take the medicine back, we can’t double the price. Add in labor costs, rental costs, as well as all the other overhead costs, we won’t even get a 50% profit. I-If you ask for twice the current price, w-we just can’t do that! It’s impossible!”
Matthew smiled. “It’s okay. If you can’t accept it, I won’t force you either. After all, business isn’t a charity! Gentlemen, Sasha has a meeting after this. Forgive us for not seeing you off!”
The others looked extremely troubled. They couldn’t leave. If they couldn’t get business from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals, they would go bankrupt. Then, Theodore tremblingly said, “Mr. Larson, what about… 40%? Even if we don’t make a profit, you have to pass us a lifeline!”
Matthew sneered, “No! It’s double or nothing!”
One of the owners anxiously said, “Doubling the price… You’re asking us to die!”
Matthew threw a glance at him. “When you withdrew your orders from Cunningham Pharmaceuticals back then, wasn’t your intention for us to fall into ruin?”
Theodore pleaded, “Mr. Larson, we have reflected on our mistakes. For that reason, we have apologized and are willing to lose some of our profits. However, you need to leave us with a way to survive. We can only profit if everybody works together. How would Cunningham Pharmaceuticals benefit if we were forced into bankruptcy?”
Matthew replied, “Of course, I’ll give you a way to survive. Your price will be doubled. For one year, you only need to sign a contract for an order of 50 million with Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. After that, you can purchase other products from other companies at will. I guarantee nobody will stop you.”
They glanced at each other. There was a way for them to survive now. By allowing them to purchase products from other companies, they could make some money from other aspects. In other words, they had to profit from other avenues to fill the coffers of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. Thus, they felt extremely helpless. It was clear that Matthew was using this method to make them work for Cunningham Pharmaceuticals. However, they had no other choice. It was a choice between bankruptcy or this. At least, being able to get by was better than bankruptcy.
They were deeply regretting their actions. How great would it be if they had not withdrawn their orders at the time? They were aware that one of the business owners had not withdrawn his orders. Due to that, he had cooperated greatly with Stanley. Furthermore, Stanley had provided him with a lot of medical resources. Therefore, he was probably raking in a lot of money now. Looking at that business owner, then looking back at themselves, they couldn’t help feeling bitter. Still, what other choice did they have? They could only blame themselves for being shortsighted and missing the opportunity for their businesses to skyrocket. They had to reap the fruits of what they sowed—they brought it upon themselves.
