Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1545 Someone wants me to die

But the boss still shook his head and said: "I can't say it, if I say it, I will die!"

I sighed and said: "Seeing that you are all Hongmen disciples, I can't bear to kill you, but if you are so ignorant of current affairs, don't blame me for being rude!"

The boss still didn't say anything, but the people under him couldn't take it anymore, they just knelt down and said, "I know, I know, I'll take you there!"

I walked over, patted his face and said with a smile: "Good! But, if you let me know what kind of tricks you are playing, don't blame me for being rude!"

The man hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare!"

Then we discussed it, Guan Ze and Yaoyang stayed, and Xiaohei, Shiyou and I went to negotiate.

A few kilometers away from here, they left a car, and the four of them drove on the road.

The car drove onto the main road. Although it is a main road, it is also a dirt road. It is not as good as our country roads. The roads are quite muddy. Most of the roads are motorcycles and tricycles, and there are very few cars. Therefore, I drove this pickup truck The car is quite conspicuous on the road.

I asked, "Is this the way in all your places?"

The man immediately replied, "No, this is a suburban area. If you go further ahead and pass the intersection, you will be on the suet road! No way, the government's money can be used for everything, but it is not used for infrastructure construction! "

I questioned: "Isn't it used for war? What kind of war is there in Laos? It won't be the same as Myanmar?"

The man shook his head and said: "There is no civil war. Generally speaking, it's not bad! The security is also very good, but on the border, conflicts often break out with Myanmar. You come and go! It's not at the national level. It's the local power gangs and the warlords over there!"

I asked with an oh: "Is your gang also involved?"

The man nodded and said, "We must be involved! Anyone who has anything to do with drugs must be involved! It's just that most of our participation is to perform tasks!"

The car had already reached the real main road. The road was still full of potholes, but it was much better than the previous road. The man pointed to a road sign and said, "Walk another 40 kilometers to Vientiane. When we arrive in Vientiane, we have to Get out of the car and leave, this car cannot enter the city!"

I groaned and asked, "Why?"

He replied: "Pickup truck! It's a freight vehicle, and it's not allowed to enter the urban area from 8:7 am to [-]:[-] pm!"

I smiled and said, "There are such humane regulations! It seems that Laos in my imagination is different from reality!"

It is indeed different. Our understanding of Laos, Myanmar, and the surrounding countries around Vietnam is probably only in the film and television dramas. The real situation is really not as bad as the acting. The environment here is similar to ours. The third-tier cities are similar. There are also high-rise buildings, bars, markets, hospitals and schools. People also live and work in peace and contentment. It is more like a tourist city.

When the car arrived in the urban area of ​​Vientiane, we parked the car in a large parking lot, and the four of us got out of the car and walked towards the city center on foot.

I asked with some doubts: "Don't tell you, your boss works in a senior office in the city center!"

The man nodded seriously and said: "Yes, he has a financial company, and he usually works there! I haven't been up there, I just wait below! I probably know which floor he is on, You have to go up to find him yourself, I can't take you in, I'm not qualified, and I don't know who to contact?"

I frowned and said, "You are here to tell me these things. Are you trying to trick me? Let me tell you, no matter where I say I want your life, I can take it!"

The man said nervously: "I really can't help it! If I go up to find him and people see him, I will definitely not see you, and I will kill me! You know our rules, you can't meet the online, I have surpassed several levels!"

I was also a little helpless, so I had to give up.

He took us to a CBD business center building and told us: "He should be on the 13th floor here, and the name of the company is called!"

Then I took a piece of paper and wrote it to me. I frowned and said, "I think the text is almost the same! How do you ask me to find it?"

He smiled and said: "Many people here can speak Chinese, and our boss is also Chinese. If you ask the financial company, they will know! I can only help you here!"

Xiao Hei wanted to threaten him again, but I shook my head and said, "Forget it, I guess he knows that much!"

Then he warned him: "You go, but if you dare to tell your people the news of our coming, I will find you sooner or later!"

The man hurriedly shook his head and said, "How dare I? If I let them know that I brought you here, I will die!"

After thinking about it, I was right, so I let him go.

The three of us entered the building. It turned out that they were the same as us, all working people, with work badges on their chests, and work clothes, busy.

The security guard at the gate stopped us and spoke a Lao language that we couldn't understand at all. However, I probably guessed what he meant, that is, who are we looking for?
I said in English: "We are looking for a financial company to invest in!"

The security guard definitely didn't understand, so he hurriedly turned around, called a beautiful lady at the front desk, and communicated with me in fluent English.

Knowing our purpose of coming, he smiled and led us to the elevator and said, "Our largest financial company here is on the 13th floor, you can go up directly!"

I nodded and smiled at her and said, "Then can you go up with me, I'm afraid no one will understand, let's talk!"

The lady at the front desk said politely: "You don't have to worry about this, someone above will translate it for you! We have a lot of people who understand English here!"

I thanked him again and got into the elevator.

On the 13th floor, there are only two companies, one on the left and one on the left, with glass doors.

I looked carefully at the signs on both sides, and felt that the company sign on the right was more similar, so I waved to the lady at the front desk inside.

The front desk lady stood up politely and opened the door.

The three of us hurried in, never expecting to get in so easily, for fear that we would close the door and not let us in.

The lady at the front desk was also taken aback, and then asked us again. Seeing that we didn't understand, she hurriedly changed English and asked again: "Who are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?"

I shook my head and said, "I don't have an appointment, I want to see your boss!"

The lady at the front desk frowned and said, "Sorry, you can't see me without an appointment! Please make an appointment first!"

When I was working as a salesman, I encountered too many situations like this. Our bottom-level salesmen never had the opportunity to meet the upper-level leaders, but if you want to negotiate a sale, you can only find them from the top. , the chance of such a transaction is the greatest, and it is often this kind of strange visit, and the main reason for the failure of this kind of strange visit is basically not being able to see the person in person, not being rejected.

So, I used my salesman skills again and said to the lady at the front desk: "I am from China and I am here to invest. I heard that your company is the largest financial company in Vientiane, so I took the liberty to come here because my visa will be issued soon. It's due, and I'm leaving tomorrow, if I don't see your boss, I have to go back, it will be a huge loss for both of us!"

When the front desk lady heard this, she began to waver. After all, it is difficult for her to make decisions about this kind of thing, so she thought for a while and said, "Then wait a minute, I will notify you and see if he sees you?"

I smiled and nodded.

She walked forward, and we followed behind.

The inside looks like a formal office space. At each workstation, there is a staff member facing the computer, typing on the keyboard, and chatting on the phone with a wireless headset. They all look very busy.

This doesn't look like a drug trafficking or assassination company, it's really a financial company!

Seeing the lady at the front desk enter a general manager's office, we followed and walked in.

The lady at the front desk and the people inside were stunned for a moment.

There was a middle-aged bald man in a suit and leather shoes. There was a lady standing next to him, who was discussing something with him. Seeing us three uninvited guests coming in, the smile on his face immediately became stiff, but it was not right for us. Instead of losing his temper, he yelled at the front desk lady.

The lady at the front desk was also very aggrieved, she didn't expect us to be so unruly, she just barged in like this, and asked us to get out immediately.

I pushed the front desk lady's hand away, walked up to the bald man sitting on the chair, and said in English: "Didn't you want to find me? I came by myself, why are you still planning to let me go? You don't plan to talk ?"

The bald man didn't react at first, but seeing the ferocious expressions of the three of us, he should have understood. Following Xiao Hei's beware, a knife pierced my throat. After several life-and-death struggles, I, It's not what it used to be, and I immediately reacted, leaning back, grabbing the stabbed knife with my hand.

I didn't catch the knife, but was caught by Shiyou who rushed over.

The front desk lady over there also made a move, but unfortunately his opponent was Xiao Hei, who had already fallen to the ground.

The beautiful young lady who was caught here felt pain in her hand, and the knife fell out of my hand.

The bald man didn't move, he was already ready to press some button under the desk.

Holding a knife, I pointed at the bald man and said, "You'd better not move, we're not here to trouble you! If people all come in, the three of you will have to give us a back, you don't want to make things worse, do you?" ?”

But it was still too late, the door was pushed open, and several men in overalls rushed in, all holding batons in their hands.

I asked Shiyou, "Do you think you have a chance of winning?" I glanced at the closest Shiyou.

Shiyou nodded.

Let go of the young lady beside him and stare at the bald man instead.

The bald man didn't know what to think, so he waved his hand suddenly, making the few people who rushed in back out again, and then said slowly: "You guys go out too, let me talk to him alone!"

The woman beside him and the receptionist walked out obediently.

The bald man looked at me again and asked, "Are they going out too?"

Both Xiaohei and Shiyou were a little worried, I thought for a while and said: "It's okay, he won't be so stupid! You wait for me outside, don't worry about me, if anything happens to me, just kill him!"

The two nodded. I also said this to the bald man, and I don't know if he understands it.

I sat across from him and asked, "Do you understand Chinese?"

The bald man didn't answer me.

I smiled and said, "I understand! I heard you are Chinese!?"

The bald man finally spoke, and he really knew Chinese: "How did you find me?"

I smiled and said, "It's not that hard to find you!"

The bald man asked directly, "What do you want?"

I shrugged and said, "What do you want now? Can you take back the order?"

The bald man shook his head and said: "No, the order has been issued, and it must be completed sooner or later, at all costs! You shouldn't be here today, even if I die, I won't let you leave here!"

I was a little surprised and said: "Then you still let them go out, you can let them do it just now!"

The bald man said calmly: "I'm just curious, who are you? You haven't been killed in three rounds? And the highest bounty ever offered, $50!"

I wondered: "A bounty? 50? Your original purpose was to kill me? It's not because I moved your people?"

The bald man was also surprised, and said slowly: "So you don't know? Did you think they would tell?"

Only then did I realize that all of this was premeditated, even if I didn’t come to find them, they would come to me, whether it’s the fat man, the flat-headed brother, or the three groups of people behind. Coming after me!
I asked again: "Who placed the reward?"

The bald man shrugged and said, "No comment!"

I said with a oh: "The rules, right? I understand! I'll pay a little more, can you send us away?"

The bald man refused: "No! I'll send you away, we all have to die!"

I asked back: "Then you are not afraid of death now? You don't really think that you can kill me?"

The bald man thought for a while and said: "I should have no chance, the two people you brought are very powerful!"

I said again: "Compared with the Nangong family, who is more powerful?"

The bald man hesitated and said: "Their success rate will be higher, because their intelligence is faster than ours, accurate!"

I hummed and said: "You know it! I can afford the same money to buy your lives, and with my relationship with the Nangong family, even if I don't pay, they will help me! Do it! a deal?"

The bald man asked, "What deal? As long as you die, I can promise you anything!"

I said with an oh: "Then I have to die to understand, right?"

Then he asked word by word: "Who wants me to die?"

The bald man suddenly took a gun from a drawer and pointed it at me, then took out a photo and threw it at me.
