Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Deal in the Night
Just when the whole company of Dongxin Publishing House was in full swing making the final preparations for the release of the new book, a person sneakily glanced up at other colleagues who were busy walking around, and then took a USB flash drive to copy the materials of several documents on the computer while everyone was not paying attention.
At night, in a dark alley, two men wearing hooded sweatshirts on a hot day quietly met, and the tall and thin one whispered, "Where is the information?" Give it to me! The tone was hurried, for fear of being discovered.
"Where's the money?" The one who was a little chubby said leisurely.
"Your uncle, if you give me something, will I treat you badly?" The tall and thin man lowered his voice and said angrily.
"Brother Gao, you wouldn't treat me badly before, but now it's hard to say!" The fat man smiled softly and said, "I know you don't have any income now, but I also took a big risk by taking out this information, so I don't want more, you can take 50,000 yuan." ”
"Fifty thousand? What do you want to do to me? The tall, thin eyes widened, spewing anger in the dark night.
"Hehe, you also know that if this matter is to be found out to me, I will definitely not be able to eat and walk around, if it weren't for the fact that Brother Gao, you used to take care of me, it wouldn't be this price!" The fat one said.
"Where's the draft? Is the manuscript in it? The tall and thin man asked.
"I don't have this permission without a manuscript." The fat man shook his head and said.
The tall and thin man said angrily: "You dare to ask me for 50,000 without a manuscript?" ”
The fat one said, "Hey, you still want the manuscript!" Do you know what happened to this ruined financial route? When the time comes, you and I will have to go to prison for two years. Besides, can you afford a manuscript? This information thinks, if you want to let it go, don't pull it down! He tilted his head as he spoke, so that the tall and thin could not see his little eyes, which twinkled even in the dark.
After hesitating for a moment, the tall and thin man gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "I buy it, Zheng (Partition) must pay for me!" I'm telling you, if I go back and find this information useless, you'll be careful! He took out a few wades of money from his schoolbag and handed them to the fat one.
The fat man took the money and checked it with his hand, and originally wanted to say a few words to him, but he still swallowed the words, and he couldn't stimulate a mad dog.
The tall and thin surname Gao, called Gao Feng, used to be an editor of Dongxin Publishing House, after the deputy editor-in-chief retired, he was originally the most promising person to be promoted to this position, but Zheng Yujie's sudden airborne suddenly shattered his dream of deputy editor-in-chief.
Coming from the countryside, he has worked hard in a metropolis like Beijing for more than ten years, has not married, works hard every day, is determined to climb up, wants to get ahead, and makes all the people who looked down on him before see him and worship him.
He has been an editor for more than ten years, and has been appreciated by the retired deputy editor-in-chief, who once joked at a dinner that he was his successor, Yunyun, who once thought that he would soon be proud and reach the peak of his life.
It is precisely because of the huge gap between gains and losses that he completely sank into the quagmire of revenge. The first is to resign in anger, how could he be willing to live under others, and he is still under a woman who is more than ten years younger than him.
The second is to seek revenge, after resigning, he went to a small newspaper as an associate editor, but the treatment of the deputy editor of the tabloid was not as good as before his resignation, and he resigned again soon after. The successive setbacks in the workplace made him hate the woman who "relied on Zuyin to take the position" even more!
It can be said that he has recorded all his failures on Zheng Yujie, since three months ago, he began to frantically seek opportunities to retaliate against Zheng Yujie, and when his mentality was unbalanced to the most serious, he was like a mad dog, he was unhappy to see anyone, and scolded and scolded.
The fat one was one of the few fox friends he used to have in the company, and they didn't lose touch with each other, occasionally going out for a few drinks. It's just that everyone else is tired of the way the man surnamed Gao cries and curses Zheng Yujie with a handful of snot and tears every time he drinks too much, but the fat one finds an opportunity to make money from it.
This is also the plot that happened earlier.
The fat one didn't check the money carefully, he just took out two of them casually from each pile, and then rubbed the light of the mobile phone twice, the money was not wrong from the feel, he nodded, took out a USB flash drive from his trouser pocket and handed it to the tall and thin man.
The information in this USB flash drive is actually not a secret, but it is the personal information of Yang Guo and three other translators, Dongxin Publishing House has been keeping it a secret in the lid, since the news of Sect Master Qiao's autobiography came out, the whole country has been speculating.
If this information is used well, it may not be a huge blow to the new book that is about to go on the market. That's why the fat one was so bold to sell this information for a high price of 50,000 yuan.
After a long time of sitting and eating, the tall and thin man has squandered almost all his previous savings. But with a sense of revenge, he still couldn't wait to buy it.
With one hand to pay and the other hand to deliver, a deal that made it mysterious and as if an agent was meeting was reached. The two did not continue to greet each other, and the fat man held a wad of money and went home with a happy face. The tall and thin man also clutched the USB flash drive in his palm tightly, walked out of the alley quickly, and called a taxi to go directly to his residence.
The room was a mess, with clothes thrown down on the bed, on the stool, and on the floor, and the beer bottles and beer cans on the table were crooked, and there was hardly a place to stay.
The tall and thin man didn't care, he swept all the bottles and cans on the table to the ground with one hand, fortunately there was a carpet on the ground, otherwise he wouldn't know how many beer bottles would be broken.
I pulled out my laptop from the closet that I hadn't used for a long time, and like a headless fly, I found the power adapter that I didn't know where to throw it, and tossed it for a long time before I turned it on. The squeaky sound of the laptop's fan suggesting its disrepair, but the tall, lanky man didn't care, he cared about the contents of the USB stick plugged in on his left-hand side.
clicked on the information that cost him less than 10M but cost him 50,000 yuan, and the tall and thin man swept ten lines at a glance. Gradually, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and the corners of his mouth also tore out a slanted sneer.
"Hehe, it's so bold, and I even got the handle!" The tall, thin man roared, "Cao! Zheng Yujie, you stinky (isolated), you are dead! Haha, look how I made you miserable! Hmph, rob me of my future, you are just a useless who relies on relationships! ”
