NovelOnlineChapter 1328 The Truth Behind Their Decline
Holding Orson's hands, Wynter hurriedly interjected before he could extend further gratitude. "I appreciate the
kind words, Mr. Blaise. You're Grandpa Fabian's old friend and used to work under Grandpa Gordon.
"I'm sure Grandpa Reuben would have ensured your business’ survival even if | hadn't interfered. Uncle Taylor
has already made the necessary preparations, and I'm just informing you in advance."
That said, Orson had recognized her modesty as a gesture of consideration for their feelings.
Proud of Wynter's response, Reuben stood up with his dragon cane and stated, "Landing the project was merely
our starting point. What truly matters is reinvigorating our businesses. Do you have a plan, Orson?"
Orson hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. "I tried live commerce last time, but it didn't work out."
"He's right. We even hired live commerce streamers to promote, but the sales were disappointing. After
crunching the numbers, we're still facing losses," one businessman echoed.
Their failure to adapt to the changing market wasn't the only reason for their overall decline. None of their family
members were willing to take over the business and constantly scorned them for mingling with farmers.
Just then, Taylor posed a question. "But the cost of hiring a live commerce streamer is high. Have you tried
streaming yourselves?"
"We did, but we only got about 200 viewers at most. Half of them were even our employees," Orson replied as
he scratched his head. Hearing that, Reuben couldn't help but sympathize with him.
It wasn't that the older generation refused to change. As business people, they were eager to respect market

leaving them to appear foolish in front of the camera.
Obviously, they struggled to market and sell their products. To make matters worse, the consumers seemed to
have dismissed such marketing approaches. They would only accept a product that was either insanely cheap or
branded by famous names.
Sometimes, Reuben found it hard to maintain proper business practices in the current market. He was rarely
reproached for his candid remarks in the earlier days, nor was he condemned for defending his business with
harsh criticism.
If he voiced his grievances now, he might be branded as a traditionalist. Despite his long tenure in the business
community, he was silenced from speaking the truth.
In contrast, those despicable individuals kept up their business involvement while masquerading as
"magnanimous benefactors". Plus, their mutual interests had fueled the Wray family's brazen and brash
behavior.
Businesses were transforming, and Orson wouldn't be the last to face it. As harsh as it was, merchants must
adapt to the market trends.
Wynter remained silent during the discussion. With Marie having received a warning, Wynter decided to review
her information thoroughly.
