Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 2262
After hanging up, Teresa looked at Harvey apologetically and said softly, “I’m afraid I can’t treat you to a drink today, Harvey. Something happened, and I have to deal with it right now.”
From the phone call alone, Harvey could tell it was something urgent.
“What happened? Tell me about it. Maybe I can help,” Harvey asked without realizing it.
Teresa’s face changed slightly. She then brought Harvey into the presidential suite and poured him a cupof water.
“It’s really nothing that serious,” Teresa said, sighing
“I established my own company that’s focused on import and export businesses.”
“This time around, we imported some high quality Red Tea to Las Vegas.”
“Because of historical reasons, people here adore Red Tea. That’s why the sales of Red Tea have been quite good.”
“Then, we partnered up with a small business here that’s backed up by the Hamilton family.”
“There weren’t any problems during the early stages of the partnership. In fact, they already paid thirty percent of the payment.”
“But during the final payment, they suddenly claimed that our Red Tea was of poor quality. Not only did they refuse to complete their payment, they even demanded us to pay them ten times the amount of the total payment as listed in the contract!”
“I came here today because my two staff, whom I sent for negotiations, were held hostage.”
“I sent out another three today. I wasn’t going to ask for the payment either, as I only wanted them to release my staff. Sadly…”
Teresa seemed extremely exhausted at this
point.
Harvey nodded silently. He could roughly understand the situation.
Teresa got herself into a typical business fraud.
Such things happen quite often in the business world, especially for newbies who just got into importing aħd’exporting.
Without a certain level of power and influence in someone else’s territory, losing money was the only way to learn the lesson.
