Chapter 1085: Conversation
Conversation. A late-night food stall.
There is some late-night culture in the downtown area of New Jincheng. Before 11 o'clock at night, there will be many various small vendors organizing operations in one place.
At first, there were only one or two, mainly selling some simple food, such as a cake wrapped in meat and sauce made of minced beef and unleavened dough.
For some workers who could only leave their workplaces after eight o'clock at night, or office white-collar workers, this didn't cost much money and could get a satisfying meal, so the business gradually improved.
Others saw that this food stall without even a name started to have good business, so some started to operate, from the initial two or three, to now more than a hundred, and the types of business involved are not only food, but also some other small commodities.
There are also second-hand goods.
Second-hand goods and food are the most businesses here. Those second-hand goods are largely from the thieves of this city.
They sell these things that are not so valuable and not very convenient to sell at the sales point to other people.
These people will come here to set up stalls at night and peddle these stolen goods.
Like a set of clothes that costs about one dollar in the store, buying it here only costs sixty cents.
After bargaining, it might be forty cents, or even thirty-five cents, and it can be obtained. Anyway, they are stolen goods, bought by weight, and then sold by unit price, so they won't lose money anyway.
The New Jincheng municipal government knows the situation here. At first, they thought about whether to manage it, but then it has become a late-night feature of this neighborhood, or even New Jincheng, and has attracted more people to come here.
Gradually, the City Hall acquiesced to the existence of the night market here, and its scale is still constantly expanding.
It is said that there are gangs managing here. They have formulated some rules, such as the location of the stalls, who is where, and how much money they need to pay to set up stalls here.
Ordinary people might not understand the things inside, but those who operate businesses here all understand.
It is not unreasonable for people to hate gangs. Obviously, the gangs didn't do anything, but the operators have to give them money, otherwise they can't operate here.
After the gang received the money, it wasn't that they didn't do anything. They were responsible for part of the sanitation cleaning work, and then they maintained order.
The senior agent supervisor parked the car, entered from the east side of the night market, and soon found the person he was looking for, then ordered the most basic set meal and sat opposite Lansi.
"I didn't expect... to meet here.", the senior agent supervisor's emotions were a bit complicated. He thought it would be in a relatively private place, such as some club.
He didn't expect at all that Lansi would make an appointment with him in such a public place. He was a bit uncomfortable.
Lansi was tasting this delicacy. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he looked up and said, "Those high-end and private places are too conspicuous. If someone is watching me, they can find your car and you."
"It's different here. I came in from the west side and have already asked people to comb through the people who might be watching. Even if there are still some now, they can only watch from afar."
"They don't know the purpose of our meeting here, nor do they know what we are talking about. To them, you are just an ordinary passerby."
"The light here is not very bright, and they can't see your appearance clearly."
Although there are lights in the whole night market, the lights are unfolded around those vendors' carts and stalls, which can illuminate the dining carts, illuminate those stolen goods, but cannot illuminate the small tables used for eating next to them.
Some small tables have a candle, but some have actively extinguished the candle, such as this table of Lansi.
Now although there are storage batteries and can be put into commercial use, this is a night market for poor people. They cannot afford the money for these equipment.
If they have the money to buy these equipment, there is no need to set up a stall here.
Soon the standard set meal was served, and Lansi signaled him to taste it.
Perhaps the fragrance emitted by these foods gave the senior agent supervisor some ideas to taste, or perhaps he didn't want Lansi to feel his confrontation with him. In short, he tasted it after a few seconds.
"You should cut the bread open, then put these meats in, I also have some vegetable salad here, add a little more, then take a bite, the taste is great!"
"Minced beef hamburger, you deserve to have it!"
The senior agent supervisor didn't listen to Lansi, just wrapped one according to his own ideas, and then took a big bite.
It has to be said that this kind of food stall that provides satiety for poor people on the roadside does have some delicious things. The cooking of beef is very attentive, and the time is also very long. The taste is good and very soft and rotten.
It is not like those beef with meat tendons, which cannot be bitten.
One bite down, the sauce and meat juice burst out, the bread was full of these juices, plus the wheat fragrance of the bread itself, the taste was great! Lansi looked at him eating two bites and smiled, "How is it, the taste is not bad, right?"
The senior agent supervisor ate more than half of it, put it down, and kept his head down, "My time is limited, if you have anything you want to say, just say it."
Lansi took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth and hands, lit a cigarette, "I know what you plan to do to me, this is not a secret."
The senior agent supervisor couldn't help but ask, "Where did you hear it?"
Not many people know about this matter. Only these senior agent supervisors, then Director Roland, and some agents under them who only know how to do things but don't know why they do it, and what they do.
If someone leaked the secret, it must be one of these supervisors.
As for Director Roland? He planned everything, he was completely impossible to leak his plan.
Facing this question that obviously ordinary people wouldn't answer, Lansi gave him a somewhat vague answer, "I definitely didn't guess it myself, someone gave me some help and revealed some news."
"Actually, I know, it is you who are pushing me and the Perez family to have a fire fight. You want to see both of us suffer heavy losses because of the fire fight, and then it will be easy to arrest us."
When Lansi said these words, the senior agent supervisor obviously began to become uncomfortable. He began to move his sitting posture frequently.
If it were other times, it could be seen as him not being used to this kind of small stool, but now he kept moving his butt, feeling uncomfortable.
An uncomfortable feeling after a secret was discovered.
"What exactly do you want to say to me?", he wanted to end this topic that made him feel uncomfortable and uneasy, because all the control was in Lansi's hands.
Lansi smiled. The brightness of the cigarette butt he was hanging suddenly increased a lot, which could reflect his face red, "I want to make a friend with you."
"I have always believed in one thing, that is, the more friends, the better. One is not enough, I want the second, the third, and... we ourselves have the possibility of becoming friends."
"Look, someone can give me your phone, which shows that we have common friends. You should have heard the sentence that a friend's friend is a friend."
"Since we are friends, friends should understand each other and help each other, don't you think?"
The senior agent supervisor didn't speak. He didn't know whether it was good to speak or not to speak now. He was a bit embarrassed.
Lansi mentioned their common friends and didn't give him too much pressure, which made the senior agent supervisor somewhat shaken.
Lansi didn't urge him, picked up the remaining part of the food, and took another big bite, "Some people realize their own ideals, but some people realize the ideals instilled in you by others."
"What exactly is your ideal, what kind of life you want to live, maybe you don't know very well yourself."
He took out a small card, put it on the table, and pushed it over, "You can consider it more, consider it clearly, and then call me."
The senior agent supervisor heard Lansi's idea of leaving. He thought Lansi had to convince him tonight. He didn't expect this to be just a meeting.
He didn't immediately take the card, but asked, "If I... refuse..."
Lansi stood up and looked down at him in the dark night, "Then we are enemies. You have studied my file. You should be able to find some attitudes I have when dealing with problems from the things that happened in the past."
"For enemies...", he laughed twice, then shook his head, turned and left, "Go back and think about it carefully, don't miss this opportunity."
Watching Lansi and his group leave, the senior agent supervisor looked at the small card on the table and fell into deep thought.
After I don't know how long, he sighed, picked up the card, put it in his pocket, and then left here.
He is in a very bad mood now, because Lansi already knows that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is dealing with him, and even knows that they facilitated the contradiction between the Lansi family and the Perez family.
At the same time, he is also thinking about another thing. Since Lansi already knows that these are done by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, why does he still cooperate so much and jump into it? He knows this is a trap, and still wants to jump into it, why? Also, who is the person who leaked the secret? If he refuses Lansi, what will be the result? If he accepts Lansi's invitation, what will be the ending?
After returning home, he didn't continue to work, but kept thinking about these things.
His wife didn't notice the abnormality of her husband. She was completely obsessed with the content on TV.
The Jincheng News Group and Lansi cooperated to engage in the Jincheng TV station, which has now become a TV station with some popularity in the Federation, because the various programs they launched are simply "slaughtering" for this new media group that is still in the exploration stage! Whether it is "long TV movies (TV series)", or various entertainment programs and news programs, as well as interviews and talk shows, they have brought huge attraction to the federal public.
Now TV stations in various places are talking about cooperation with Jincheng TV station, and they hope to introduce more programs and reach a strategic cooperative relationship in some aspects.
And Lansi's condition is, if you want to cooperate, you must accept the shareholding requirement of Jincheng TV station.
This is also a very good way of cooperation for Jincheng News Group. As for whether it will involve the problem of monopoly, that will be discussed after someone thinks they are monopolizing.
Including the TV content played by New Jincheng TV station, most of them come from Jincheng TV station.
These programs make many people obsessed with them. Almost twenty-four hours a day, except for the time when they have to leave the TV set, they spend other time in front of the TV, firmly locked by it.
One night without words.
Early the next morning, the senior agent supervisor went to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He is a bit nervous now, but neither the gatekeeper nor the director's side looked for him, which shows that his meeting with Lansi last night was safe.
He returned to his office and asked people to send some materials about Lansi. He saw the end of Lansi's enemies from it.
Before, when looking at these materials, there was no such great feeling, but now looking at them again, it obviously gave him a different... feeling.
Just when he was immersed in Lansi's ruthless means of treating enemies, the phone bell on the desktop suddenly rang. He immediately answered it, it was the phone of an old friend of his.
"Do you have time today?"
"If you have, come to my place tonight, I have prepared a rich dinner, and by the way, there are some things I want to talk to you about..."
(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 1086 =====
Currently, television stations everywhere are discussing cooperation with Jincheng Television, hoping to introduce more programs and reach strategic cooperative relationships in certain aspects.
And the condition Lanse proposed is that if they want to cooperate, they must accept Jincheng Television's requirement for equity participation.
For the Jincheng News Group, this is also an excellent way to cooperate; as for whether this might involve the issue of monopoly, that will have to wait until someone thinks they are monopolizing before discussing it.
Even the television content broadcast by the New Jincheng Television station mostly comes from Jincheng Television.
These programs have many people obsessed; almost twenty-four hours a day, except for the time they absolutely must leave the front of the television, they spend all other time in front of it, firmly locked in by it.
No more words that night.
Early the next morning, the senior agent supervisor went to the Federal Investigation Bureau. He was a bit nervous now, but neither the guards nor the director had sought him out, which meant his meeting with Lanse last night was safe.
He returned to his office and had someone bring over some materials regarding Lanse, from which he saw the fates of Lanse's enemies.
When he looked at these materials before, he didn't have such a strong feeling, but looking at them again now, it obviously gave him a different... feeling.
Just as he was immersed in Lanse's ruthless methods of dealing with enemies, the telephone on his desk suddenly rang. He answered it immediately; it was a call from an old friend.
"Are you free today?"
"If you are, come over to my place tonight. I've prepared a sumptuous dinner, and there are some things I'd like to talk to you about..."
