Chapter 185 Want to die
Chapter 185 Want to die
As the sun was setting, in the conference room of NGN, An Rusong closed the documents on the table in front of him and said to the heads of the company's programming groups sitting on both sides of the long conference table: "Okay, what I want to say is that in the next few days, after returning, each group should hurry up and arrange their respective tasks to ensure that the version update on the 20th can be launched as scheduled."
All the participants responded in agreement, and then stood up and left. In a short while, the entire meeting room was empty.
Exhaling lightly, An Rushong looked at the back of his bandaged hand. The area burned by sulfuric acid was still very painful. The pain was throbbing, and there was also a tingling sensation.
As he was watching, he heard the sound of high heels hitting the ground at the door of the conference room. A moment later, Jiang Xiuyuan appeared at the door. She walked in with a document and said, "Brother Rusong, the fax from the lawyer has arrived."
An Rusong raised his head and said with a smile: "Bring it here."
Jiang Xiuyuan came over with the document, handed it to him, and said, "Do you want me to pour you a glass of water?"
An Rushong took the file, shook his head, and then began to browse the contents of the file.
The document was faxed by Thomson and contained a total of 4 pages, which included brief information about eight people, 4 men and women, all of whom were of Korean descent living in the United States. They all had experience serving in the U.S. special forces and were currently working for Blackwater.
The main part of the document is the quotation and a brief employment agreement.
From the last page of the document, it can be seen that the quotations listed by Blackwater are divided into five categories, namely A, B, C, D and E. Category A is the cheapest, but the employer needs to bear the most matters. Category E is the most expensive, but the employer does not have to worry about anything and only needs to enjoy the perfect security service, which includes legal exemption.
After reading the entire quotation, An Rushong's favorite is model E.
The reason is very simple. This agreement is not actually signed with any specific bodyguard, but with Blackwater. Blackwater requires the signatory to pay a certain annual fee, and then the security affairs of the signatory will be completely taken care of by Blackwater. They are responsible for formulating security strategies for the signatory, arranging bodyguards, etc.
The reason why An Rushong chose this one is that according to the provisions of this clause, if any form of legal dispute arises while the bodyguard is performing security work, Blackwater will be responsible for it, and the signatory of the agreement will not be responsible himself.
However, in comparison, the price of this model is indeed expensive, with an annual expenditure of millions of dollars, which is much higher than the price Thomson mentioned before.
But after hesitating for a long time, An Rusong finally took out a pen and drew a circle on Model E. Then he took out his mobile phone, found Thomson's number, and dialed it directly.
After a moment, the call was connected and Thomson's voice came out of the phone: "Hey, Ann, did you see the fax?"
"I see, Thomson, I think the E service is more suitable for me," An Rusong said, putting the phone to his ear, "Now the question is, how do I sign this agreement?"
"Type E?" Thomson seemed quite surprised. He said, "Ann, frankly speaking, although the security situation in Seoul is getting worse and worse, it is not so bad after all. Are you sure you need a Type E security agreement to ensure your travel safety?"
"Safety is important, isn't it?" An Rusong said with a smile, "My opinion is that as long as I'm alive, money won't be a problem for me. But if something happens to me, no matter how much money I have in my account, I can't turn back time."
Thomson was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, “Well, you’re the boss.”
After a pause, he continued, "Then I will contact the people from Blackwater for you. I think in a few days, they will arrange for someone to come and sign a contract with you. Before that, you need to prepare at least one year's membership fee, because this money needs to be paid in advance. Hey, of course, there is also my commission."
"Don't worry," An Rusong said with a smile, "I won't pay a penny less. I'm a trustworthy person."
"Haha, of course," Thomson laughed heartily and then ended the call.
Putting the phone on the folder in front of him, An Rusong pursed his lips. In fact, although Thomson was a lawyer who was obsessed with money, An Rusong still liked this American very much, because although he was greedy, he was very direct in his greed. In a sense, he also made a living by his own ability and earned the money he deserved.
Compared to people like Thomson, there are countless people in this world who should feel ashamed.
Looking at the watch, it was already 5:30 in the afternoon, and it was completely dark outside.
Standing up from the chair, An Rusong turned around, hugged Jiang Xiuyuan who was standing next to him, and said, "Okay, don't worry. The bodyguards I hired should be here in a few days. If you encounter something like this again, those guys with ulterior motives will not be able to get close to me."
"Can't things like this happen again?" Jiang Xiuyuan said in a reproachful tone, then she sighed softly and added, "In short, you should pay more attention to your safety and don't always make others worry about you." An Rushong smiled, tightened his arms around her, bent down and kissed her on the forehead, then took the mobile phone on the table and walked towards the door of the meeting room.
After returning to the office to get the car keys, An Rushong left the company. When he drove away downstairs, he looked behind the car. After seeing the Honda seven-seater following him, he felt relieved. Although the Zhao Jingsheng brothers were not very capable, at least their attitude was reliable.
Again, it's unlikely to expect these gangsters to take on the responsibility of bodyguards, but having a few of them around can always deter certain attackers to a certain extent.
After driving away from NGN Company, An Rushong did not return to the Songquandong mansion. He went directly to Shicun. Tonight, he made an appointment with Jiang Yiyu and Shen Wuguo to have a drink. The place was booked by Shen Wuguo, a Japanese restaurant near Shicun Lake Park.
The Japanese restaurant that Shen Wuguo mentioned is not very famous in Seoul, mainly because it adopts a membership system and most people cannot go there even if they want to, so it is not well-known.
According to the location described by Shen Wuguo, An Rushong drove to Shicun Lake Park and found a Japanese-style building that looked quite old in the back alley of Shicun City Building. Judging from the style, it should be a dry landscape garden style. It is hidden in the lush forest outside Shicun Lake Park. You don’t need to look at its decoration style, just look at its location to know that the operator is definitely not an ordinary person.
The restaurant does not have its own parking lot. It should have rented the underground parking lot of the City Building in front. In order to facilitate the entry and exit of vehicles, the City Building has opened a green channel for it in the direction of the back door. The customers of the restaurant can park directly through this green channel. The distance from the underground parking lot to the restaurant through the green channel is only about 200 meters, which is very convenient.
When An Rushong parked the car and rushed to the main entrance of the restaurant, Jiang Yiyu and Shen Wuguo had already arrived. They were standing under the eaves at the entrance of the courtyard, smoking and chatting.
Seeing An Rusong coming over, the two of them greeted him. Shen Wuguo was more careful and noticed the bandage on An Rusong's hand. He asked in surprise, "What's wrong with your hand?"
"It's hard to explain in a few words," An Rushong raised his hand, looked at it, and said with a wry smile.
"It's hard to explain in a few words, so I'll say a few more words," Jiang Yiyu said with a smile, "Anyway, we have plenty of time tonight. It's rare that Brother Wu Guo actually arranged a place like this, so we must have a good time."
At that moment, the three of them pushed and shoved each other into the courtyard, and under the guidance of a beautiful woman in kimono, they turned around and entered a spacious independent courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, An Rushong realized that this place was not only a place to eat, but also a place to soak in hot springs, because there was a hot spring pool with a rockery in the courtyard. The rockery divided the huge pool into two parts, a large and a small part. It was already early winter, and the curling white mist filled the entire courtyard, making it like a fairyland.
The three of them sat on the tatami in the house. Jiang Yiyu was the first to ask, "How is it? Did Jian Yuzhen send the car to you?"
"It has been delivered," An Rusong said with a smile, "two new cars and some cash. Haha, from the looks of it, his apology is quite sincere."
"On the surface?" Jiang Yiyu was a smart man. He could naturally hear the hidden meaning in An Rushong's words. Therefore, the smile on his face froze in an instant.
An Rusong raised his injured hand, shook it gently, and said, "Did you see that? This morning, right after I sent President Jian away, someone threw a bottle of sulfuric acid in his face."
"Sulfuric acid?!" As soon as he said this, the two people in front of him were shocked.
An Rushong nodded, and then briefly recounted what happened in the morning.
As he spoke, the expression on Jiang Yiyu's face became more and more ugly. It was obvious that he subconsciously blamed Jian Yuzhen for the incident. After all, this guy was too suspicious.
"I think this guy wants to die," Jiang Yiyu said grimly, gritting his teeth, after An Rushong finished describing the attack.
Young masters like him are very concerned about their reputation. When he first sat down, he mentioned Jian Yuzhen's matter because he felt that this was something that would make him look good.
But who could have thought that Jian Yuzhen did make compensation, and made 10 times the compensation as he requested, but the problem was that this guy turned around and almost killed An Rushong again.
What kind of behavior is this? There is no doubt that in Jiang Yiyu's view, this is the other party slapping him hard in the face twice, making him lose all his face in front of An Rusong and Shen Wuguo.
