Chapter 595: Learn with love and gain with benefit (first update, please subscribe)
In fact, robbery does not necessarily require open swords and guns. It doesn't have to be in a crude and simplistic way.

After all, we are all civilized people.

Robbery among civilized people does not require the use of swords and guns. They will use the rules, use the righteousness, use... everything.

As a well-known lawyer, Slater is best at dealing with people.

For an idealist, you talk to him about your ideals.

To a merciful person, talk to him about charity.

For a realistic person, talk to him about reality.

……

In fact, people are just interested in fame and fortune, as long as they do what they like.

However, most people are ordinary people. What are ordinary people good at?
Good money, good sex, good...

In fact, it is mainly the former.

Every law firm has corresponding investigators. As long as they want to investigate, they will definitely be able to learn a lot of information.

The only question is what to do with that information.

After drinking coffee and meditating for an hour in his office, Slater took a car to a restaurant. He has already made an appointment with a guest.

"Hello, Dr. Lelan, nice to meet you."

Slater, who is articulate, seems very enthusiastic when he sees the guests.

"I've heard about you. You are a lawyer representing a pharmaceutical company. What can I do?"

"I'm here in some ways on behalf of friends who share a common concern for the health of everyone around the world."

Nodding cautiously and taking a sip of wine, Dr. Lelan, the World Health Organization official, looked at the man in front of him.

"Do you want to donate medicine?"

“We’ve been donating medicines.”

In fact, what is a donation? It is actually just a free trial. Anyone who knows it understands that in this era, there are basically no trials on drugs. Most of the trials are based on proven use. Many pharmaceutical companies like to use the World Health Organization to Organizations donating drugs to underdeveloped countries can both enhance their company's reputation and gain access to first trial data.

perfect.

"Today, I want to discuss another matter with you, Doctor, for example, for the health of all mankind."

Slater stated his intention directly.

"This requires the Doctor to help facilitate something."

"Is it streptomycin?"

Dr. Lehlen directly pointed out the other party's intentions. After all, it was he who drafted the World Health Organization report that exposed the high cost of streptomycin production.

As a medical expert, Lailan has fully confirmed one thing through long-term investigation-the statement that streptomycin production costs are high is simply a lie.

Behind this lie, pharmaceutical companies have made a lot of "dirty money."

Now that Slater found this place, it must be for this matter.

"Yes,"

Slater said directly.

"Then I want to hear your opinion?"

"Doctor, in 42, the U.S. government convened many companies, including ours, to jointly study the large-scale production of penicillin. In just two years, the price of penicillin dropped hundreds of times. We believe that through opening up Patents allow major companies to participate in research, which can not only reduce drug prices to the greatest extent, but also benefit tens of millions of patients. Doctor, this is our common wish - for the health of all mankind!"

"so what?"

Taking another sip of wine, Dr. Lelan lit a cigarette. he asked looking at the other person.

"Is this your goal?"

"It's not just that."

Brett smiled and said,
“I also hope to be the doctor’s lawyer.”

"what?"

Dr. Lelan wondered.

"Have a dollar?"

Slater asked.

"As long as you hire me, our subsequent conversations are protected by attorney-client privilege. At no time will I disclose today's conversation or I will lose my license."

Slater understood human nature, and Dr. Lelan also understood human nature. He gently took out his wallet from his pocket, then took out a one-dollar bill, put it on the table, and said.

“Hopefully it’s worth the money.”

"certainly,"

Slater said after taking the dollar.

"$20 million."

"what?"

"The company I represent will pay you $20 in consulting fees."

Faced with the other party's offer, Lailan fell silent.
"No one will share the hen that laid the golden eggs with others." "No one will do that, but if someone can come forward to put pressure, it will prompt the governments of various countries to come forward. By that time, It’s not difficult to achieve all this.”

As a lawyer, Slater understands human nature. Know exactly where to apply pressure.

"Even so, it's not as simple as you think. Now I can come forward, but then I have no way to influence other countries."

The doctor's answer made Slater laugh.

"Doctor, you don't need to worry about this. I will think of other ways when the time comes."

The doctor just looked at the one dollar bill on the table quietly.

That’s two hundred thousand!

While Lailan was thinking about the money, two people were having a conversation at another dining table not far away.

"So what do you need?"

John adjusted his glasses frame and asked.

John, who relied on an article to expose the whereabouts of the "Nazi Treasure", has transformed from an unknown reporter to a well-known reporter. It is precisely because of this that he has the opportunity to enter this high-end restaurant.

What does the guy in front of me need now? Need his help writing an article?

"A name,"

The man who was enjoying the steak said without raising his head,
"I know very well that when you wrote that article, you quoted a lot of official information, and I need his name."

what?
John, who originally thought that the other party wanted him to write a "paid report", quickly said,
"Sir, I don't know what you're talking about!"

Who is this guy?

Is it an official?

"I don't want to help you remember the name from the article I wrote before. However, we both know what I am talking about!"

The man was still enjoying the steak, completely ignoring John.

"I know you work for a living, maybe this can help you recall."

The man gently took out 10 $100 bills from his pocket and placed them on the table.

"Can you recall now?"

Facing the money that came to his door, John was silent, his heart was tangled.

$1000!

This is equivalent to several months of his income!

Maybe I can buy my wife a new car, maybe... But this is an informant!
Is this appropriate?

and……

"Sir, I don't know his name, and according to what he said, we have never met."

Finally, John broke the silence.

As a reporter, he knew very well that the other party was now giving him a choice, either accept the money, or they would most likely use another method to force him to reveal the identity of the person.

"it does not matter."

The man took out another photo album, handed it to him and said.

"Here, here are some photos. Maybe, you can identify that person."

After saying this, he looked at John who was looking in front of him like this and seemed to be telling him.

This is your last chance.

"I……"

Facing this photo album, John hesitated a little. He didn't know what he should choose, but his eyes finally fell on the pile of banknotes on the table.

Although there are only ten of them, they have been tempting him and tempting him. When John made a somewhat forced decision.

"me……"

John couldn't help but put his hand on the album. Finally he opened the photo album.

The moment he opened the album, he let out a long sigh.

After he read the photo album, he took out a photo from it.

"it's him."

Then he stood up and took the bills in his hand.

Then he walked out of the restaurant. When leaving the restaurant, John couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He seemed to be sighing for himself.

After walking out of the restaurant, looking at the bustling world, John said to himself.

"Actually, I'm just an ordinary person."

Most people in this world are ordinary people, some are greedy for money, and some have a good reputation. When faced with choices, it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

When John left the restaurant, the man who had been chatting with him looked at the photo, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said to himself.

"It's pretty much the same as the previous guess... Sure enough, there are no surprises - it's just those pigs."
