Chapter 21 I Don't Feel Safe Entrusting You with the Money
In Jiangnan City, there were not a few people who could produce several million in cash, even quite a lot, but those who could manage to bring in ten trucks of coins were absolutely rare, and even thinking about it, this young man definitely had an extraordinary background!
Such a person was definitely not someone she could afford to provoke, not even her uncle might be able to afford provoking him.
Was it necessary to make such a fuss for the sake of two sanitation workers?
"Didn\'t you say you don\'t accept the management of small savings services?" Zhang Menglong said, "Now I have millions here, shouldn\'t that count as a large amount? Moreover, it\'s past shift change time now, according to bank regulations, aren\'t you supposed to help me with the services now?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhang Menglong turned to the several strong men and said, "Gentlemen, we are here to deposit money, not to make trouble, please be careful not to obstruct the bank\'s employees or affect other customers."
"Mr. Zhang, we\'ll be careful!" several strong men nodded, their movements becoming even more agile.
In just a few minutes, the bank\'s business hall was already piled with dozens of money sacks, all filled with silver coins!
"Damn, what\'s going on here?" the onlookers with dazed faces watched the scene; this was the first time they saw someone arrive with ten trucks to deposit coins—a real rarity!
"I just got here, I don\'t know either."
"I know! Two elderly people came to deposit money earlier, that short-haired staff member thought it was too troublesome to manage, and the young man couldn\'t stand watching and argued a few words, and was even reprimanded by that clerk,"
"Isn\'t his temper too big?"
"Nonsense, in less than half an hour, he could summon ten trucks of coins, do you think such a person would be ordinary? Either a second-generation official or a rich second-generation, aren\'t these people just foolish, wealthy, and quick-tempered?"
"Keep your voice down, don\'t let others hear you!"
"Wow, that girl really got herself into a pickle!"
"No kidding? But I think she had it coming!"
"Sorry, my family is quite poor, I don\'t have exact change, so I might need you to count how many coins there are," Zhang Menglong said, "But if you count wrong, even if you count one dime less, I\'m going to complain to your branch manager!"
By this time, Zhou Yue was utterly panicked, the sacks in the store were increasing, and if she had to count them one by one, not to mention this evening, even a month without sleep might not be enough.
What\'s worse, if this got back to her uncle, it would be a disaster, and if it got even worse and reached the deputy manager or even the main manager, even her uncle couldn\'t save himself!
She had actually thought earlier that this young man was just an ordinary person without any background, but could an ordinary person so easily summon ten trucks of coins in less than half an hour? Now she realized that she had really kicked an iron plate.
At that moment, Zhang Menglong\'s phone rang, he glanced at the caller ID, and it was none other than the bank\'s manager, Gu Anshan.
"Manager Gu? I thought you went out for a meal with your staff, turns out you remembered I was coming today!" Zhang Menglong said grumpily.
Gu Anshan was immediately puzzled, he hadn\'t done anything, so why was there a hint of gunpowder in Zhang Menglong\'s tone?
"Mr. Zhang, what do you mean by that?" Gu Anshan asked perplexedly, "Knowing you were coming today, I didn\'t even dare to go out for a meal, I had to order takeout and eat in my office!"
"Oh, then continue your meal, I need to handle some things first, we can chat slowly after I\'m done." Zhang Menglong said and then hung up the phone.
Zhou Yue witnessed this whole scene, who was Gu Anshan? He was the manager of their main branch!
She hadn\'t expected that this young man was not only able to contact the manager directly but even dared to hang up on the manager\'s call!
"Could there be trouble?" How could Gu Anshan remain calm enough to eat at this time? The reason he had reached his position was precisely because the previous manager had provoked someone he shouldn\'t have, not only losing his position but even those past corruption and bribery issues were dug up, and now he was still eating the bread laid by socialism!
Although he had never engaged in abusing power for personal gain, the people didn\'t need to target him intentionally; just if he became unhappy and withdrew his deposit, he could be dismissed and forced to leave within minutes!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly put down his chopsticks and walked towards the hall.
When he reached the hall, the burlap sacks filled with coins had already piled up half of the lobby. Gu Anshan was instantly stunned. What on earth was happening? Where was security? Were they all vegetarians? Just letting someone cause trouble like this?
The security guards tried to stop it, but the person was there to deposit money. Bringing money in to deposit it shouldn\'t be too excessive, right? Without money, how could one make a deposit? No one could find fault with that!
"What\'s going on? What exactly is happening?" Seeing the scene, Gu Anshan shouted out loud.
"You must be President Gu, correct?" Zhang Menglong recognized Gu Anshan as soon as he saw his face, which indeed didn\'t look too different from the online photos.
"You are..."
"I am Zhang Menglong."
"You\'re Mr. Zhang? Pleased to meet you!" The president had not expected Zhang Menglong to be such a young man.
"Forget the pleasantries. I don\'t think there\'s anything good for us to talk about," Zhang Menglong said. "I feel a bit uneasy about leaving my money in your bank!"
"Why would you say that, Mr. Zhang? Our Huaxia Bank is absolutely the most authoritative and safest bank in all of Huaxia!" Gu Anshan guaranteed, patting his chest.
"Oh? Is that so?" Zhang Menglong raised an eyebrow. "Here, even getting a savings account handled involves half a day of difficulties from your staff. I can\'t compliment that."
"What exactly is going on?" Gu Anshan finally caught on that Zhang Menglong had obviously been mistreated here. "Speak up! If I have to investigate it myself, none of those present today will escape responsibility! And if anyone dares to speak out, their bonus for this year will be doubled!"
At that moment, Gu Anshan finally showed some of a bank president\'s authority.
Where there are great rewards, there will be brave followers. Especially since Zhou Yue was clearly not an ordinary person. Now, it wasn\'t a matter of whether Zhou Yue could keep her job, but whether her uncle, the manager, could continue his role. At this point, what was there to fear?
Soon, the action Zhou Yue had just taken was exposed.
"We have such oversight in our bank? Who is in charge of campus recruitment today? Have them come to my office tonight!" Outraged by the incident, Gu Anshan burst out.
"President, Zhou Yue didn\'t come through campus recruitment. Our business manager is her uncle, so..."
"Good! Very good!" Gu Anshan struggled to suppress his anger. "Tell him, before he leaves work today, to submit his resignation report directly on my desk!"
"It\'s over!" Hearing this news, Zhou Yue collapsed directly at her workstation. Her backbone was gone, and so was she. She was not only losing this job, but her uncle\'s entire family and perhaps even her whole family would treat her as a criminal.
"Mr. Zhang, I will handle this matter seriously, I assure you. Such incidents will absolutely not occur again in our bank," Gu Anshan promised.
"Hmm." Zhang Menglong nodded since Gu Anshan had given him enough face, he could not make things too difficult for him.
"Alright, stop moving them," Zhang Menglong ordered. "Take this money away and set up several charity boxes at various bus stations and subway stations. There\'s always someone who goes out without change for the bus or subway. Just put the money in those charity boxes!"
"Yes, Mr. Zhang!" Dozens of strong men then moved the money back onto the truck, which left with a roar, leaving only the stunned faces of the passersby Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta.
"Millions of coins donated just like that?"
"He really is a tycoon! Impressive!"
"To be honest, although he was a bit overbearing, his principles are quite right."
"Yes, such people deserve to be rich!"
