Chapter 1328 Shopping
“This steak is well fried, tender, chewy, and juicy.”
“It’s great that you like it, but I’m worried about you. I’m not used to Western food.”
“I may not be used to other people’s food, but I definitely like what you cook, Anna.”
“Gee, you are really good at talking, Chu. .”
At the dining table in the living room of the apartment, Chu Heng and Anna were chatting and laughing while eating the steak on the plate.
Cen Hao didn't participate in the whole process, and just kept busy with the rice. He didn't like cutting it with a knife and eating it too slowly, so he just picked up the whole piece with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth, and the juices flowed out.
As for whether this thing is cooked or not, he doesn't care at all.
For a person who has not yet realized the freedom to eat meat, it is enough to eat meat. It does not matter whether it is cooked or not.
Evima didn't participate either. She ate the salad absentmindedly and glanced at Chu Heng from time to time. She hesitated several times, but finally couldn't hold it back and asked: "Chu, you If my book sells so much, how much remuneration can I get?”
Chu Heng stopped when he heard this, glanced sideways at her, and said in an understatement: "Of these more than two million books, a large part should be sold overseas, and Chrissy entrusted Random House with this part. You can’t make much at all, plus all kinds of taxes and fees In terms of fees, he can get almost more than two million dollars. The one I signed with him before was a 20% share, which is about four hundred thousand. "
" Four hundred thousand! "
Avima's eyes suddenly lit up.
“Ka!” Anna, who boasts of having seen big waves, also lost her composure because of this huge sum of money, and spent all her money on the plate. Although she is a wealthy woman, 400,000 yuan is too much for her. That’s a lot of money!
Cen Hao also stopped chewing and looked over with wide eyes.
One book, earning 400,000?
What a girl!
Evima licked her lips, rubbed her hands again, and said to Chu Heng expectantly: "Um... Chu, you see, I also put a lot of effort into this book, and I also used it. In my name, can you..."
"No."
Chu Hengheng glanced at her and said lightly: "We have already agreed, you get the name and I get it. ”
"That's indeed the agreement, but you've already made 400,000, so just share it with me." Avima looked at him pitifully, like a puppy wagging its tail begging for mercy: "Please, I don't have a penny now." It’s all gone.”
“Don’t think about it. I can’t get any of the four hundred thousand, so I have to hand it over.” Chu Heng rolled his eyes at her and lowered his head to cut a piece of steak. Put it in your mouth and taste it slowly. , picked up the red wine glass and took a sip, and then said to the listless Ivy: "You don't have to do this. Since the book has been sold, I believe a reporter will come to your door soon, and you will have a lot of money by then." "
"Then I can only hope they come over quickly." Avima leaned on the chair weakly, like a bird that had been exposed to the sun for another hour after leaving the water. The fish is limp.
She was really fed up with having to ask Anna for every penny she spent.
"Hey, by the way." Chu Heng looked at Anna again and asked while eating: "How are you doing here? Have you contacted the senior officials of Hong Kong Island?"
"We've already made contact." Anna nodded with a smile, pointed to the lying corpse of Ivy Code, and said: "It's a coincidence that the daughter of the Finance Secretary, Becky, turned out to be a fan of Ivy Code, so we were very relaxed. I became friends with her and got to know many Hong Kong officials through her.”
“ Good job." Chu Heng gave them a look of praise, and then asked: "How is the person I asked you to contact?"
"Already contacted." Avima leaned softly against the chair and hummed: "That man's name is Bartram Gavin, he's a Japanese." The fallen collector is also an out-and-out pervert... He is on Hong Kong Island now and can arrange for you to meet at any time."
"Let's do it tomorrow." Chu Heng put down the red wine glass and took it. He wiped the oil stains and scarlet wine from the corners of his mouth with a tablecloth, pondered for a moment and said, "If everything goes well tomorrow, If so, we will start preparing for the trading company as soon as possible. Also, Anna, please help me find out how to register an offshore company. I need several offshore companies to transfer funds. "This is not troublesome. Just find an agent." Just leave it to me.”
"Okay."
......
The night is beautiful.
Chu Heng stood with his hands clasped in front of the window of a guest room on the 21st floor of the Mandarin Hotel, looking at the brightly lit Victoria Harbor not far away, thinking about this time over and over again in his mind Things to do when traveling.
The first thing is to open a company. This is a must and the key to his trip.
Another thing is to go to Java Island. Last year, Zhang Yiyi gave him a large safe left by Fujiwara Koji, an officer of the Japs during the Anti-Japanese War. A lot of things were issued at that time, including a copy of Fujiwara Koji's in Indonesia. He was going to take a look at the treasure map of Java Island to see if it was still there, otherwise it would be useless to think about it all the time.
Then he might have to go to Citigroup.
The possibility depends on the result of tomorrow's transaction. Tomorrow he is going to meet the man who never sets on the sun and sell the Giorgione oil painting in his hand. At the same time, he is also planning to take out two If the person couldn't see anything, he was going to go to Citibank and ask Krissy to contact a few big buyers and sell them all.
When the important things were over, he was going to take a look at the old man and the others.
“Squeak!”
At this time, the bathroom door was opened, and Cen Hao, who had been in there for almost an hour, came out with his bare butt covered in water vapor, and said to Chu Heng with excitement: "Master Chu, you go and wash up too. Well, it was so comfortable to soak in that bathtub, I almost fell asleep."
Chu Heng came back to his senses, turned to look at the naked Cen Hao, and cast a look of disdain. After Yi's eyes, he said excitedly: "Put on your clothes and I'll take you for a walk."
"Oh!"
Cen Hao was delighted when he heard this and hurried to the suitcase. Looking through his clothes, he also wanted to take a stroll around the neon-filled Hong Kong Island.
Not long after, two guys in human-looking clothes took the elevator and came to the hotel lobby.
Chu Heng stood in the lobby and walked around for a while, then waved to a young man who had helped him carry his luggage: "Come here."
The young man hurriedly came to this generous guest. With a smile on his face, he asked: "Do you need any help? Sir."
Chu Heng stuffed ten Hong Kong dollars into his pocket and asked directly: "You know Are there any fun nightclubs around here? "
"I know." The young man nodded with a smile and said, "There is a Du Lao Zhi Dance Hall in Wan Chai. There are many pretty girls, but the prices there are a bit expensive. Just listen. Listening to music and drinking will cost me a month’s salary.”
“How much is your monthly salary?” Chu Heng asked cautiously.
"Four hundred yuan." The young man said hurriedly.
That’s less than a hundred dollars.
Chu Heng, who had 20,000 knives lying in the warehouse, immediately felt confident when he heard it. He immediately ordered the young man to prepare the car, planning to wait for him to criticize it.
