The person in charge, who was in his forties, did not dare to meet Jasper’s gaze at all. His forehead
was beaded with sweat. With a bitter expression on his face, he said, “Not only are there problems with
the cement and steel supplies, but our supplies of paint, thermal insulation, waterproof concrete, brick,
stone and most of the building materials have almost all been cut off.”
No matter the reason, the procurement manager would be the first to be held responsible if there was a
problem with the supply of building materials.
The procurement manager felt like burying himself in the ground right now.
Following his words, the atmosphere in the meeting room fell into a state of heavy, sinister silence.
Everyone directed their gazes at Jasper, who was seated at the head of the table, as they waited for
him to come up with an idea.
Right then, Sean decided to bite the bullet after pondering it for some time. “Mr. Laine, it’d be
reasonable if there were problems with procuring one or two of the building materials. However, the
supply of all our building materials, regardless of the shipment size, have been cut off at the same time.
It’s obvious that someone from the upstream supply chain is messing with us,” he said.
Jasper did not reply.
Anyone could understand something simple like that.
This move was not really very smart. In fact, it was rather barbaric.
However, it was still effective.
It was a trick that utilized a predatory pricing strategy to buy up the supply.
If they did this to a weaker opponent, their opponent would have lost all resistance instantly. They
would be at the mercy of everyone else.
Previously, Jasper had used a similar method to defeat the Zions back in Brac County.
“It’s Haddock. Ian Hull and Norman Gardner are behind this,” Jasper announced in an even tone.
They were the only ones who go to such lengths in order to disrupt the Southface River project.
Jasper knew that they were about to unleash all their moves on him one by one.
Sean let out a heavy sigh, “Mr. Laine, what should we do now?” He asked.
“How long will the remaining building supplies at the construction site last?” Jasper asked.
Being the competent vice president that he was, Sean answered almost immediately. “The other
building materials should be able to last for some time since we still have quite a number of supplies in
the inventory. We should have enough to continue for up to ten or fifteen days. However, we use a lot
of cement and steel supplies on a daily basis. As of now, our inventory of those will only last another
four days,” he said.
“If we don’t receive a new supply of building materials in four days, construction will have to be
temporarily suspended.”
“Under no circumstances can construction be suspended. If construction is suspended, a series of
harmful chain reactions will occur, alongside drastic financial losses. This is exactly what our opponent
wishes to achieve,” Jasper said decisively.
