Chapter 165: Door-to-door storytelling
Waiting for the car to stop in Arahan? As Ram went downstairs in the costume city, Le realized that the biggest obstacle to his trip had appeared.
Because Lotte is looking for a Tzu Ren cousin who has been trafficked, if this kind of thing is to ask the other party directly if he knows the way, even if the other party really knows the way, what if the other party really knows the way? Will people admit it? If the other party answers that he doesn't know the way, should he believe his words and turn around and leave?
But if you don't ask, how can you check it yourself? Is it directly tortured to extract confessions?
But Lotte doesn't even know who the real suspect is now, so he directly arrested well-known Indian businessmen one by one and tortured them? I'm afraid that's outrageous, isn't it? When the time comes, it will be a trivial matter to cause a Chinese terror in India, and if the real target escapes, that will be the biggest trouble!
Lotte had a headache for a long time, and finally thought of a good way, that is, to use the power of religion, such as the Ram I want to find today, since he believes in Buddhism, then Lotte can completely let the Buddha in his office speak, scare and scare him, even if he can't find anything, he won't let him know that he is behind his back, isn't it?
Coke immediately discovered that there is also an obstacle to this method, and that is the language of both sides! If you want the Buddha in Mr. Ram's office to speak, you don't have to say that you should speak Indian, at least you have to let the Buddha speak English, right? You can't let the Buddha speak to him directly in Chinese, right? That's too fake, isn't it?
Coratian's current English is limited to the likes of hello and remi, and it is not enough to ask for useful information from other people's mouths.
I can't get help with this kind of thing. Ling Lotte really felt very depressed, he knew that he would not practice for the time being, and it was not too late to learn English first and then practice! Now this situation is really a temporary cramming!
Now it's coming to an end. It's useless to say anything, yes, let's go up and find people first!
This Arrahand? Ram is not so easy to see, and an Indian sister downstairs said that the three of them did not have an appointment and refused to let them up.
Lotte had no choice but to say to the stubborn sister: "Please tell Mr. Ram that it is a businessman from China who wants to discuss with him about the acquisition of Mumbai Garment City." Xie Lu Xie. ”
Lotte learned from the information provided by Shamuel, this Arahand? Mr. Ram's business in Mumbai's Garment City was not very good, and he had long been interested in selling the Mumbai store. It's just that I haven't been able to find anyone willing to pay a high price to take over.
The sister at the front desk relayed Lotte's words to Mr. Ram suspiciously, but Mr. Ram didn't say a word and told her to invite the distinguished Chinese guests upstairs!
Arrahand? Mr. Ram was now overwhelmed by his Mumbai branch, and thought it would be very profitable to open a branch in Mumbai, but he didn't find out until he opened the store. It's not what I think it is. People in Mumbai don't usually buy much clothes at all!
As for the people of Mumbai, they rarely buy clothes, and this is all due to Mumbai's bustling film industry. Mumbai is a film and television base, with thousands of films shot here every year, and a large number of extras wear the costumes provided by the crew every day, and there is no need to buy any clothes at all.
As for the actors, they don't have to pay for it, and those office workers have work clothes, and ordinary people buy the cheapest clothes, and one piece of clothing can be worn for ten years! So Arrahand? After the opening of Mr. Ram's clothing city, the business can be described as a crowd!
Now how can I smoothly transfer the Mumbai branch out of the city at a high price? And he became Arahand? Mr. Ram's biggest heart was sick, and at this time he suddenly heard that two Chinese people were coming to negotiate with him about the acquisition. Mr. Ram was naturally welcomed!
In Arrahand? According to Ram, the Chinese people are all big fools, and they don't know where they made a few dollars and ran to India to invest, thinking that this is a successful multinational businessman!
To say that there are indeed many misunderstandings in the eyes of ordinary people in India, this is of course due to the distorted reports of China deliberately by the Indian government and media.
In the eyes of many poor Indians, their lives are already very good, because their Chinese neighbors are living even worse than them, and it is said that many Chinese people starve to death every year because they have no food to eat!
The reason why the people of India believe in this kind of propaganda of the government is, firstly, out of trust in their own country's leading group, and secondly, because many people have never been to China at all.
One of the main reasons is that the population of China is larger than that of India! In the eyes of many Indians, their poverty is caused by too many people, and China is more than Indians, so it is natural that they are poorer than India!
The classic phrase of many Indian politicians is: "If we don't hurry, we will be overtaken by the Chinese!" ”
Arrahand? Mr. Ram was deeply poisoned by these politicians, making him feel a sense of superiority in front of his two Chinese counterparts, and he was also very arrogant when he met Lotte.
In Arrahand? In Mr. Ram's office, Lotte first paid attention to the layout of his office, but did not find a statue of the Buddha, which seems to be inconsistent with the information that Lotte obtained.
Lotte didn't see the Buddha statue, but didn't he immediately face Arahand? Ram's identity as a Buddhist had any doubts, and he just thought in frustration that the plan he had just thought of was temporarily useless, and it seemed that he had to think of another way!
In Arrahand's expectant gaze, Lotte finally put down the teacup in his hand and began to speak to him, but Lotte did not discuss with Mr. Ram about the acquisition of Mumbai's Garment City, but told him the story.
But I heard Lotte say: "Mr. Ram, I don't know if you are interested in me coming to India to invest in business?" But whether you're interested in learning about it or not, I would like to tell you why I came to India to invest, because I need your help.
Just in the first half of this year. While I was traveling in Myanmar, I was kidnapped by a gang of local drug dealers. The drug dealers put me in a black jail and demanded ransom from my family! Later my family paid the ransom. But those damn drug dealers didn't let me go, they even tried to kill me! ”
At first, Mr. Ram was not interested in the reason why Lotte said he was investing in India, but when he heard this, he slowly became a little interested, after all, curiosity is something that most people will have, and Mr. Ram is naturally no exception!
Pearl also exclaimed when she translated this, of course she didn't know that Lu Dao Lotte was talking nonsense, and thought it was all true.
Lotte continued: "I saw that the drug dealers refused to let me go back. I immediately realized that something was wrong. So I wanted to find a chance to get out of the house by myself, so I slowly moved under the window and smashed the glass with my head. Then I crouched down and picked up a piece of broken glass, turned my back to it, and slowly cut the rope that was tied behind my back!
Just as the rope in my hand was about to be cut, a guard suddenly pushed the door in, and I was so nervous that I was to death. I thought I was going to be discovered by him soon!
It was at this time. Suddenly there was a shout outside, and the guard looked back and immediately left the little dark room where I was being held.
After I cut the rope, I crept to the door, and when I looked through the crack in the door, I saw an Indian talking to the drug dealers.
The Indian gentleman had his back to me, I didn't see his face, I just learned from the drug dealer next to me that he was from Delhi, India. It's for a gentleman named Ram to do something!
Later, the Indian gentleman and the drug dealers left the courtyard, and the guards did not come in again. I found a chance to escape, and walked alone in the deep mountains and old forests for more than 20 days, and finally returned to China!
When I returned to China, I went to the Buddhist hall at home to burn incense, and I was glad that I could escape this time! You may not know the Tao, but I'm a devout Buddhist.
As a result, when I was offering incense to the Buddha, I unexpectedly got the Buddha's clear indication that I was able to escape from the drug dealer this time, and the Buddha specially arranged for the Indian gentleman to rescue me!
The Buddha told me that I should repay my kindness as a human being, and asked me to come to India to find this Mr. Ram and repay him for saving his life.
But I don't know anything about this Mr. Ram, which is why I have come to you today. I wonder if you are the same Mr. Ram as that gentleman said? ”
Arrahand? Ram listened to the story told by Lotte, his face became difficult to look at, and he replied directly to Lotte's most difficult question: "I'm sorry, your story is too absurd, I'm not the person you're looking for." Also, since you're not here to talk to me about the acquisition, please leave quickly, and please don't approach me with this lame excuse in the future, understand? ”
Lotte said regretfully: "Oh, no, it's really a pity." Originally, I was going to find this Mr. Ram, so I would like to thank him, and according to the instructions of the Buddha, I am going to give him the statue of the Buddha's real manifestation! Now it seems that my wish will not come true for the time being! ”
When the pearl was translated to the end, her eyes were open, she couldn't believe Lotte's words, this Mr. Le didn't even know whether Guanyin Bodhisattva was a man or a woman before, and now he actually said that he was a Buddhist!
Pearl immediately thought of the information about Mr. Ram in front of him, who was a Buddhist! And the Buddha apparition that Lotte said the most, Pearl asked Lotte several times before slowly translating it to Ram.
When Mr. Ram heard about the Buddha's apparition, he immediately became suspicious and asked, "What?" You say you have a statue of the Buddha in your hand? Is it true or fake? Can you give me a tour? ”
Lotte shook his head and said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Ram, although you are also called Ram, but you are not the person I am looking for, my statue is going to be handed over to my savior, so please forgive us for the interruption, we will leave first." ”
Arrahand? Ram saw that Lotte was really leaving, and immediately shouted, "Please wait a minute! Well, I'll be honest, I have to be very careful to tell you that I sometimes buy some drugs from drug dealers in Myanmar, but only in small quantities. Please keep this secret from me!
Sir, the Ram you just spoke of is probably me, because I sent my assistant to Burma just a few months ago, and I think that Indian you are talking about is him. Now can you show me the statue? ”
Lotte shook his head and said, "Mr. Ram, your words are completely improvised according to what I just said. I can't believe you're telling the truth. However, I have changed my mind about what you said about visiting the statue of the Buddha, and in order to apologize for our hasty visit, I have decided to invite you to visit my statue, but until then, I hope that you are also a devout Buddhist. ”
Arrahand? Ram immediately patted his chest and said, "Of course, how can I not be a devout Buddhist?" I was born for Shakyamuni! ”
Lotte smiled: "Since that's the case, then please come with us." ”
Arrahand? Ram was immediately shocked when he heard this, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Lotte smiled: "Of course I went to the hotel where I stayed, you don't think I'll take the statue with me, right?" ”
When Mr. Ram heard that he was going to the hotel, his expression hesitated, he was worried about the identity of the other party, what if these people were liars? What if they tricked themselves out of the game for kidnapping?
After thinking about it for a long time, Arrahan replied, "If you go to the hotel, you can't do it now, I have a very important meeting soon, and I regret that I can't see the Buddha's apparition with my own eyes." ”
Arrahand? Ram thought about it for a long time and still felt that safety should be the priority, after all, what this Chinese man said was too mysterious, just now he thought that the statue of the Buddha who would manifest was brought by Lotte's side, Mr. Ram naturally wanted to see it, but now that he wants to go out with these people, Mr. Ram doesn't want to go. As a successful businessman, he still has this vigilance! (To be continued......)
