“Hey, not looking at anything, I’m just really tired of this face-punching drama. Hurry up and get your money or you won’t be able to get it out after a while. In a few minutes the bank president is going to come down and give that account manager an angry lecture and apologize to us. I don’t want to make that much trouble, so let’s hurry up and get it done and get out of here.”
Hai Kuan lost his voice and laughed, “Boss, you’re right, we have to be quick. These people don’t have it indeed.”
Even if we wanted to hurry, we couldn’t, the teller who was checking in kept dragging his feet.
Then Hai Foon got annoyed and said, “Pretty girl, I’m just momentarily annoyed now, so if you get it done for me, I might come back to deposit in a few days. If you really annoy me, will I not be able to withdraw this money? I’ll have to take the money out anyway, and you’ll lose me as a customer completely.”
The teller couldn’t take it anymore, so he quickly withdrew the money. Hai Kuan took the three million and gave it to Baldy, turning his head and saying to the teller with a smile, “Thank you for helping me with this, I still have this million in your bank to take care of, and I hope you can recommend some financial products for me.”
The teller’s eyes were glowing, it was better to get a depositor than a customer to buy wealth management, this would double her performance.
She was busy introducing wealth management products to Hai Kuan, who said, “Boss, you go ahead and get busy, I need more time here.”
It looked like he was really planning to buy wealth management, not fooling the teller. After walking a few steps, Meng Meng pulled me in and whispered, “Captain, your friend is a real genius. You see, he was about to buy the wealth management, but this withdrawal and deposit made people not only not hate him, but also remember him especially well.”
“Hey, he’s the manager of my Juyen Garden.”
“Holy sh*t, a manager under your hand is so rich, where did you get the corner? He must have worked in a particularly impressive restaurant in the past.”
I cried and laughed, “Not really, I picked him up. But heroes don’t ask about birth. Come on, Baldy, you go and pay the medical bills, Meng Meng and I have things to do.”
Baldy’s eyes were red and he didn’t know what to say, so he stammered for a while and said, “I’m sorry.”
I knew that he was apologising for coming to me with a cheque and asking me for a favour.
In all fairness, the cheque for three million was indeed a reason for me to give it to Xing’er and Ah Yu because I felt sorry for them. Heng’er has a strong character, so if I had just said it was a gift for her, she would not have accepted it.
If you can’t use the three million, then you don’t have to come to me to ask for it.
But there was a reason for this. Apricot was his sweetheart, and if something happened to her, he would of course be anxious.
“We’re all brothers, there’s no need to say anything.” I held out my fist and paired it with Baldy’s.
Baldy seriously put the book bag containing three million being behind his back and said to me, “Thank you.”
There was a taxi pa*sing by, and he waved to stop and got in.
Meng Meng waited for him to leave and asked, “Captain, why do I get the feeling that when I gave him the money, he got more upset instead.”
“That’s because you don’t understand them Jianghu people, especially those from famous schools like Baldy. They treat money like dirt, but now they have to run around for dirt, can you be happy if you were put in your place?”
Baldy was fine, if it had been Apricot, she would never have asked for this money.
It is true that there are people in the world who chase money, but there are also people like them who see their character as more noble.
If it wasn’t for Xing’er today, but for Baldy himself, I don’t think he would have asked for my money.
Maybe it’s quite silly for them to think that way, but I have to admire them.
At least people like Baldy and Xing’er were angels compared to the gang who were after the Yin family’s young children for the sake of their family fortune.
Monk listened in awe, and after a while he said, “I’d be happy to, Captain, please insult me with your damn money.”
“f*ck you.”
I just remembered I’d pulled my car keys in the VIP area, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw the bank inquiring, the account manager’s head hanging down to his trousers from earlier, a middle-aged man, red-faced and spitting all the way out, pointing at the account manager’s head and reprimanding him repeatedly.
They were surrounded by layer after layer of people, while others were crowding around to take video.
“That’s our client, you don’t have any eyesight, is a client something you can dislike? What do you want, you want to be an emperor?!”
“But that Zhang Chao is indeed not a VIP ……”
“You still have a tough mouth, is Zhang’s deposit in our bank not enough to qualify him as a VIP? Now his account is frozen up, but frozen up, does that money go to zero? Even if Mr. Zhang hasn’t deposited a single cent, can you treat him with this attitude? What is the service principle of our bank? I think you’ve forgotten them all!”
As expected of a bank president, at this point in time, he could still insist on not spraying dirty or cursing, knowing how serious it was for a staff member to spray away a depositor, and if today’s incident was put on the internet by someone with an intention to do so, it would probably cause a huge public opinion incident online.
I watched for a while, the president of the bank cursed really excited, and did not notice me.
Meng Meng gave me a nudge: “Should we go up there?”
“No, let’s go, I’ve seen this kind of drama too many times, it’s nothing new anymore.”
When I got my keys back and was ready to go, the line manager was announcing that the account manager had been sacked, and not wanting to get into more trouble, I left quietly.
Monk asked me where I was going.
“To find Ryu Rong and settle a score with him.”
Monk didn’t ask much, but with his brain he should have been able to guess what was going on.
I told Meng Meng to check Liu Rong’s location for me immediately; the computer he carried with him wasn’t as precise, but it could be checked.
“It’s in his own lodge, where his mobile phone signal is.”
I nodded and turned the car around and headed straight for it, following the direction that Meng Meng had found out.
I hadn’t been driving long when Han Kun’s call came, and I wasn’t at all surprised by the call.
Han Kun had been monitoring my every move, and when I received his call, I had the feeling that I had triggered the main plot.
“You’re not answering the phone?” Meng Meng asked me.
I tossed the phone to Meng Meng and said, “You answer it.”
“What does it say if I answer it?”
“You pick up and tell him to shut up and not to bullsh*t me, I’m not listening, but I’m not comfortable scolding him either.”
Monk was bewildered, “Who the hell is that?”
I had to say, “Do you remember what I told you? When I was nineteen, an uncle came to me with my dad’s will?”
“Is that the uncle? Then he’s your benefactor.” Monk was puzzled by my actions, as if I was an ungrateful b*****d.
“But he had a hand in getting my parents killed.”
As soon as this was said, Meng Meng put the phone back on the dashboard honestly as if he felt it was hot in his hand, with an expression that seemed to say why is the world of you rich people so complicated?
This f*cked up question I also want to ask, why is it so complicated?
We drove to the foot of Liu Rong’s lodge, who by this time didn’t know we were coming and was lying by his pool drinking a gla*s of wine.
Don’t look at Liu Rong these days and Han Kun race money for fun, losing money like a grandson, but the thin camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how much he loses, he is still richer than the average person now – of course, in a few days it won’t be so good to say.
Liu Rong lay back in his recliner, enjoying this rare moment of leisure.
