华尔街中级英语 Lesson 60
20. Here’s Hugo Peters, sir.
21. Hello, Peters. Here you are, then.
22. Hello, sir. You’re looking very well.
23. Yes, I’m glad to have you where I want you at last, Peters.
24. Thank you! I’ve got the stuff, sir. Would you like to take a look at it now?
25. I think it’s time for the fish.
26. It’s alright, sir. I’m not hungry; I ate on the plane.
27. But the fish haven’t eaten for weeks. They’ve been getting very hungry. Take your shoes and socks off, Peters.
28. What, but, sir…
29. You heard what I said. Guards, get him.
30. Put one foot at a time into the water. Then , when the fish have eater his feet, they can start on his hands.
31. No, please! You can’t do this to me! What about this stuff, sir? Aren’t you even going to try it?
32. No, I’m not interested in your stuff, Peters. That sort of stuff is for children.
33. Look at what I’ve got here, Peters, in this bottle.
34. It just looks like water, sir. Are you sure?
35. Be quiet and listen to me, fool! Anyone who has tried what’s in this bottle once would do anything—anything at all.
36. To get some more of it, and I’m the only person in the world who knows how to make it.
37. I think I’ll charge a million dollars a gram for it to start with and then the price will go up and up, of course.
38. So do you see now why I’m not interested in your South American rubbish, Peters? Guards, let the fish have him.
39. Don’t move, anybody! Stay exactly where you are.
40. What’s that guard doing? Get him out of here immediately!
41. It’s me again, Mr. P.
42. Temple! I thought-
43. I know what you thought, Mr. P. If I were you I’ll get rid of those guards. They’re not really much use, are they?
44. Well, what do you want, Temple? Perhaps we can do a deal.
45. Ok, Mr. P, let’s talk. The price was quite low before-only two million dollars-but it’s much higher now.
46. I guess 20 million will do it.
47. Well. Let me see…
48. What are you doing? Stay away from there!
49. Too late! The guards are here; there’re 120 of them.
