Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 788 Finding Evidence
This actually illustrates a problem. Ordinary people are living their normal lives. They don't think about the city they are in, how many people there are, how big the area is, how many administrative districts, and who is the mayor?It's not that they are not politically sensitive enough, but knowing these things will not have much impact on their lives.

So why am I interested?This is very simple. I am a salesperson. If you want to do a good job in a market, you must first understand the layout and distribution of the market.According to the size of this market, it is decided what sales plan to do.What is the economic foundation of a city, and what supports the city's economic lifeline, determines what the city's market needs, and what is its demand?For example, a heavy industry city, environmental protection, transportation, large-scale infrastructure, machining, and corresponding supporting industries.A tourist city is the hotel industry and catering industry.

Corresponding to the product you want to sell, is it suitable for this market?

You can't sell large machinery and equipment in a tourist city, can you?No need, just very little.

In the same way, you can't expect the hotel industry and catering industry to flourish in a heavy industrial city.

The car drove into MS City. It was really a beautiful city. In the outskirts of the city, there was a large area of ​​farmland. It is not difficult to see that this place has not been favored by domestic real estate giants, and there is still such a large open space.

The car entered the urban area, there are still many old houses from the 80s and [-]s, the streets are very clean, the city center has a bit of an urban atmosphere, and I saw a Wanda complex under construction.

I asked Xu Tao next to me, "Where do we live at night?"

Xu Tao was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "You are quite leisurely? Have you forgotten what we are here for?"

I groaned and said, "Yes, yes, as soon as I arrive in this city, I feel like I'm retiring to the countryside. I always want to relax. Then where is your home?"

Xu Tao became a little nervous, looked at the back of the car and said, "I don't know, is there anyone following us?"

I also looked back and said, "I guess there is no one, I didn't pay attention either!"

Xu Tao frowned and said, "What's the matter with you? You're so careless! Why don't we go around a few more times, there's really no one else, let's go to my house to get things!"

I smiled and said, "You really think you're making a detective film?"

Xu Tao said puzzledly: "Isn't it? Several people have died. It's not what you said. It's related to the whole system. Those people are murderers without batting an eye!"

I said loudly: "Yes, yes!" After finishing speaking, I said to Brother Kui: "Brother Kui, let's go for a few more laps!"

Brother Kui didn't have the intention to tease Xu Tao, so he said impatiently: "What's the matter with it, let's go to the big place, hurry up, and then we have to join the big team! It's still two and a half hours from here to Mianyang !"

I cut it and said, "Boring! Come on, where is your home? Don't worry, you'll be fine! Did you forget that I have an omnipotent bodyguard?"

Xu Tao looked out of the car again and said, "What about others?"

I pointed to the roof of the car and said, "It's up there! If you can see him, then he's incompetent! Hurry up, didn't you see that the driver has a bad temper?"

Xu Tao glanced at Brother Kui, who was staring wide-eyed, and hurriedly said, "My home is in Qingshen, and it's more than 40 kilometers away from here!"

Following the road pointed by Xu Tao, we finally came to his home, a small county town, where there are few cars, a commercial vehicle suddenly came, which still attracted a lot of people to watch, Xu Tao looked around anxiously, mouth He muttered: "Why are you so ostentatious? Do you think I'm returning home?"

I urged him to show the way quickly and told him to stop talking nonsense.

His home is going off the national road, and then passing through the country road, the car can only park on the ridge of the field, and he has to walk down.

The house is well built, a small two-story building, and a clear stream in front of the door, but the surrounding area is too desolate, and a lot of cultivated land is deserted, and there is only this house, which looks lonely.

A yellow and skinny old lady stood at the door drying peppers.

As soon as the dog barked, the old lady looked around swiftly. After seeing Xu Tao, she barked a few times with tears in her eyes and said a lot of words, but I couldn't catch a single word.

Xu Tao ran over excitedly, supported the old lady and shouted: "Mom, I'm back!"

After that, she ignored us and helped her mother into the house by herself.

After a while, Xu Tao came out and said awkwardly: "I forgot about you! Come in, come in!" After speaking, he led us into the house.

The room was smoky, with a portrait in the middle, two red candles stuck in it, a lot of sticks of incense sticking in an incense burner, a brazier on the ground, and paper money burning in the brazier.

I thought someone had passed away, and I was going to burn some of them, but Xu Tao grabbed me and said, "What are you doing? This is the ancestor of my family, what are you doing?"

I groaned and said, "I thought someone in your family had passed away?" "

Xu Tao said dissatisfiedly: "Someone in your family has passed away! The rule here is to worship the ancestors first when entering the house!"

I said oh, at this time the old lady came out, and when she saw us, Xu Tao hurriedly introduced us.

Then, with a smile on her frowning face, the old lady spoke to me again.

I guess she might think I'm from Sichuan, but I guessed for a long time, and only understood one or two words.

Seeing me nodding, Xu Tao cut his head and said: "Do you understand? Why are you nodding? She thinks that no one has come to the house for a long time. She is happy and asked you to take good care of me and said that I am very motivated. Very good!"

I cut it and said with a sneer, "You are very motivated, but it's hard to say whether you are good or not! Why can I understand other Sichuanese, but not your mother?"

Xu Tao pursed his lips and said, "What you heard before was Trump, and what my mother speaks is the real Sichuan dialect!"

I groaned and said, "It's been a long time, why are you Sichuanese so poor in Mandarin?"

Xu Tao smiled and said: "You haven't heard of it, you are not afraid of the sky, you are not afraid of the earth, you are only afraid of people from Sichuan speaking Mandarin!"

After that, her mother went to the kitchen, and after a while, a tempting fragrance came out of it.

I asked Xu Tao: "Where is the thing? Where did you hide it? When did you hide it? It has been many years? You haven't come back for so many years. Is the thing still there?"

Xu Tao took a hoe and walked to the back of the house without saying a word.

I followed behind, and when I passed the kitchen, I saw her mother standing around the stove, cooking vegetables on a small bench.

Xu Tao said something casually to her mother, and then walked towards the backyard.

There are a lot of bamboos planted in the backyard. Xu Tao walked under a very thick bamboo, took a hoe and dug it down. After digging for a long time, he dug out a bamboo shoot and threw it to me.

I frowned and said, "I'll accompany you to the medical check-up of pastoral life?"

Xu Tao did not speak, and continued to dig. After digging the third bamboo shoot, he began to dig a hole, then dragged out an iron box, scraped the soil on the iron box with his hands, and said to me: "Help!"

I pulled the iron box and teased, "How much gold do you hide in it? Don't you know that there is a state institution called a bank?"

He and Xu Tao dragged the suitcase into the room. He took out a large number of keys from a drawer on the second floor, tried them one by one, and finally found a key that could be inserted into the lock, but he couldn't twist it no matter how hard he twisted it. move.

He was so angry that he almost broke the key.

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Bring some vegetable oil, you can see that you haven't done any work!"

Vegetable oil dripped into the lock, and after a while, I twisted left and right and finally opened the lock.

Opening the iron box, there was a thick layer of newspaper on it, and when the newspaper was torn off, there were a few books on it. Xu Tao took out a plastic bag from the bottom, and inside the plastic bag was a stack of materials.

Xu Tao took out the materials and looked at them for a long time, and I asked curiously, "How long have you been preparing this? Why did you think of collecting these materials at that time? Did you foresee that these materials are very important?"

While reading the information, Xu Tao said casually: "Being a person and doing things has to leave a way for yourself! After I entered Jiujiu Pharmaceutical, I have been in the same position for three years, neither promoted nor demoted. Most of the people in it are the same as me. , there are few personnel changes. The salary is not high, the pressure is still high, but I don’t want to leave, I can’t starve to death, and I can’t get rich. It feels like a robot. The hierarchy is strictly divided, and the subordinates must absolutely obey the superiors. Mistakes are fines, in short, if you work in it for a long time, people will go crazy!"

I thought for a while and said, "That's why you wanted to take revenge on them, so did you come up with a counterfeit plan? Then report them?"

Xu Tao snorted and said: "Revenge, I never thought about it! I just bought myself an insurance. I know that if this matter is exposed, I will definitely go to jail! I am very clear about the national medical regulations, I know Matters related to people's livelihood and governance are all major issues. Once something really happens, I will not be the biggest scapegoat, and I have their signatures on it!" After finishing speaking, he handed me a copy of the meeting minutes , I looked at the above content, and the company decided to agree with the plan proposed by Xu Tao, a technician from the quality inspection department, to improve the drug experiment cycle!There are several signatures below, and I pointed to the last approved name, Zhang Datong, and asked, "Who is he?"

Xu Tao thought for a while and said, "Our company's vice president of technology!"

I groaned and said, "Then he is not the biggest in your company? The biggest boss is He Tian, ​​right?"

Xu Tao shook his head and said: "No, we all know that He Tian is the big boss of our group, how could he be the boss of our company? The boss of our company doesn't care about business, I have never seen it, but this Zhang In short, he is in charge of almost everything in the company!"

I hummed and said, "Understood!"

I carefully read all the evidence in Xu Tao's collection, most of which are some daily inspection records. I read them for a long time, but I didn't find out what's wrong with these records?
Apart from the meeting minutes, I couldn't see any other evidence, so I threw it back to Xu Tao in disappointment and said, "These so-called evidences are useless at all! It doesn't prove anything at all! It can only be said that he agreed. One of your proposals, if it counts, you have to bear the main responsibility! Even if you can sue them, what's the use if you catch the biggest one is this Zhang Datong? He just came out to top the tank. You can't change anything at all!"

Xu Tao took these test records and pointed them to me excitedly: "These data are all fake, you can see that these data are regular, the real data is chaotic, only the fabricated data is regular! Clearly, these figures are all fake and fabricated on the same day!"

I shook my head and said: "Even if the data is proved to be false, so what? You didn't figure out the problem. It's not whether you can prove that the data is false, but since the data is proved to be false, it also shows that Nothing? Look at the date again, ten years ago! It was ten years ago, and the prosecution period has passed!"

When Xu Tao heard what I said, he seemed to lose control of his emotions and shouted: "You tell me now that the evidence I found is useless? What did you do long ago? How did you tell me then? Several people have already died because of this evidence. ! If this evidence is useless, why would they go to such lengths, even the people who found the photo of the evidence! What I have in my hand is the real and complete evidence!"

I sighed and said, "I told you, this evidence is useless! It can't prove anything!"

Xu Tao yelled frantically: "Why is it useless? You say it's useless, so it's useless? How do you know if you don't try it?"

I also yelled at him: "How to try? Tell me how to try? I'll take your crappy evidence to the Food and Drug Administration? Do you think they can accept it? Can you be more rational? I understand you. Hard work I have painstakingly collected evidence for so many years, but now it is useless at all! But there is no way to do it, accept the reality!"

Then he thought about it, and comforted him: "Well, you come to my company, and do the quality inspection as before, but the premise is that you can't fake it!"

Xu Tao silently put away the evidence, and said in a low voice: "You didn't even think about trying it. If you don't go, I'll go! Do you think I care about a stable job and money? I've been conscientious all these years. I'm sorry. If I knew that the fraud would bring such serious consequences, even if I was killed, I wouldn't have proposed that fraudulent proposal!"

I wondered: "What serious consequences? I have checked the antihypertensive drug you made. Although it is not a special drug, it has no side effects, and the effect is good."

Xu Tao squatted down, covered his head with his hands and said, "The name of that drug was changed three years ago. Due to the lack of time for clinical trials, the first few batches of the drug at that time had adverse consequences. The most serious consequences, It is the patients who have used those batches of medicine, all have anorexia and fast heart rate!"
