Heath Ledger calculated a bit, $40,000 could buy a lot of product, and while the other party hadn't left yet, he responded, "Alright, $40,000 it is."
He was worried the other party might back out, so he emphasized, "I request that the transfer agreement be signed as soon as possible, and that the copyright transfer fee be paid in one lump sum."
Ivan pondered for a moment, then said, "Alright."
Copyright transfer agreements were troublesome, not simply a matter of two people signing a contract, and both Heath Ledger and Ivan began summoning people, striving to complete the agreement that very day.
In the afternoon, when the sun moved westward, Heath Ledger received $40,000 in cash. Taking out a quarter of it, he immediately contacted his drug supplier to purchase a batch of good stuff.
He then called Gemma Ward, telling her to come home early today, so they could enjoy themselves together.
