Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chen Changan was also waiting for his salary in the office, although he didn't need enough money to buy New Year's goods.

But who wouldn’t be happy if they had a salary to earn?

Although Chen Changan knew that it was not yet noon, by the time he arrived at the administrative department, it would probably be almost time to get off work.

Chen Changan was not in a hurry. He drank tea and read the newspaper. When he was tired, he went to the new workshop to inspect it.

Chat with the workers and communicate with the directors of each workshop to find out what problems there are with the production tasks and where difficulties may arise.

If the problem can be solved, Chen Changan will solve it on the spot. If it cannot be solved on the spot, he will ask Shi Heping to discuss it together and try to find a result that everyone can be satisfied with.

Just when Chen Changan and Shi Heping were still discussing in the workshop office whether to continue to transfer people from the old workshop and how many skilled workers were needed.

Hou Yan and Liu Hongjun pushed the door open and came in. Seeing the expressions of the two people, Chen Changan's heart skipped a beat.

At this time, these two people came to the workshop office.

Needless to say, they were definitely looking for Chen Changan. Today was the salary payment time, and the head of finance and the head of security came to see him together.

Needless to say, something must have gone wrong with the finance department. Chen Changan reacted in an instant, stood up immediately and walked out of the office.

No matter what the matter is, since these two people are looking for me together, it must be a big deal.

Chen Changan and Shi Heping were not the only ones in the office. There were also the workshop director and several skilled workers.

No matter how big or small the matter is, it is best to keep it known only among a few factory leaders.

Once ordinary workers get to know about it, it will spread quickly throughout the factory, which will have a bad impact.

Seeing Liu Hongjun wanted to say something, Chen Changan immediately said, "Wait a minute, let's go out and talk."

Liu Hongjun was also anxious at this time. When he heard that Chen Changan was here, he came here immediately.

When he saw Chen Changan, he was ready to tell her what happened. After Chen Changan's reminder, he finally realized what was happening. It would be best if other people didn't know about this.

So he nodded and followed Chen Changan out of the office.

Chen Changan was also anxious and couldn't wait to go back to his office to ask. At this time, most of the workers were still working in the workshop or waiting for their wages.

There were no other people on the road. Among the group of people were a factory director, two deputy factory directors, and the deputy director of the security department. All of them were qualified.

So Chen Changan asked, "What happened?"

Liu Hongjun then said, "As soon as I got to work this morning, Deputy Director Hou and Accountant Xu came to see me.

Request the Security Department to send an officer to go to the bank with the accountant to withdraw the money."

Chen Changan nodded. This was as it should be. The motorcycle factory had nearly 10,000 people, and the monthly salary was 200,000 or 300,000.

It is definitely not possible for one person to get it. At least two people are needed so that they can take care of each other and supervise each other.

Liu Hongjun continued, "In the past, a security officer named Yang would ride on the security department's motorcycle, and the two of them would go together and come back very quickly.

But today, Secretary Yang's father broke his leg yesterday, so he took a leave of absence to take care of his father.

So Secretary Qin and Accountant Xu were arranged to go together. Accountant Xu said that the weather was too cold and his face was numb from riding the motorcycle.

Because Accountant Xu was a female colleague, Secretary Qin did not ride a motorcycle, and the two of them walked to the bank.

Just as Accountant Xu was withdrawing the money, Secretary Qin lit a cigarette.

Because it was my first time going to a bank, and I didn’t see any prohibition on smoking inside the bank, and I was used to it, so I started smoking on the spot.

Then the clerk who was handling the cash withdrawal for Accountant Xu said loudly to Secretary Qin, "You are not allowed to smoke in the bank. You have to go outside to smoke."

Accountant Xu couldn't stand the smell of cigarettes either, and he was also trying to persuade Officer Qin to go out and smoke first. It would take a lot of time just to light up the cigarettes for hundreds of thousands of dollars. He could come in and help get the money after he finished smoking.

Thinking about the hundreds of thousands of dollars, the bank counted it once, and my own accountant counted it once. It took me several minutes to count the wages myself, and this would take more than an hour. So I readily agreed.

Secretary Qin came outside the bank, feeling the wind and smoking. He felt a little cold, and he didn't have much cigarettes left.

I thought it would take more than an hour to finish inside, and I might even have to come out to smoke later.

So he ran to the supply and marketing cooperative across the street and bought a pack of cigarettes.

When I got back to the bank, I lit up another cigarette. After I finished it, I went back to the bank.

I was completely stunned. Accountant Xu was gone. I asked the bank staff who had just handled the business, and he said that he had already counted the money. The bank's money was in bundles and there was no need to unpack it.

Just count the bundles. Accountant Xu has just left.

Secretary Qin hasn't noticed the problem yet and went straight to the motorcycle factory as soon as he walked out the door.

He was still muttering as he walked, and just took the time to smoke a cigarette before running away, without even saying he would wait for me at the bank for a while.

You can do it by yourself, why bring me along?

When he returned to the motorcycle factory, Officer Qin was completely dumbfounded. His colleagues from the security department who were guarding the door confirmed that Accountant Xu had not returned.

Now, Accountant Xu disappeared with hundreds of thousands of yuan.

What should I do? I immediately reported this to Liu Hongjun. When Liu Hongjun heard the news, he almost fell to the ground.

Liu Hongjun was panicked as he had never seen 200,000 yuan in his life.

First, two people from the Security Department were arranged to take Officer Qin and ride a motorcycle to the bank to look for someone, and to monitor the bank staff who was handling the withdrawal business for Accountant Xu.

Then he hurried to Chen Changan's office to look for Chen Changan, but no one was there.

I had no choice but to go to Deputy Director Hou first. Hou Yan was also panicked when she heard the news.

She is only skilled in accounting, not good at solving cases. When encountering such a thing, she can only report it to her superiors.

After asking along the way, I found out that Chen Changan had been found.

When Chen Changan finished listening to Liu Hongjun's account of what happened, he fell into deep thought.

The whole thing sounds very reasonable, and some unreasonable places seem to become very reasonable.

Chen Changan has always believed that all coincidences are arranged.

The first coincidence was that Secretary Yang, who always accompanied Accountant Xu, happened to have something to do at home on the day of withdrawing the money.

Having accompanied Accountant Xu to the bank so many times, he couldn't have been unaware that he was going to withdraw money today, but at the critical moment, his father broke his leg.

The second coincidence is that Accountant Xu doesn't want to ride a motorcycle. If Chen Changan, who rides a motorcycle every day, says that he doesn't want to ride a motorcycle, that makes sense.

In this day and age, people who don't often ride motorcycles will choose not to ride when they can legally and reasonably ride in a car?

It's possible, but not very likely. So this is also an unreasonable coincidence.

The third coincidence is the issue of Officer Qin smoking. Smoking may really not be allowed in banks, but as a retired soldier, how could Officer Qin leave his post without permission while performing his duties?

Even if you were an ordinary person, if you knew there were hundreds of thousands of dollars in the bank and you were needed to escort them all the way back to the factory, would you leave without permission?

I guess it’s a normal reaction to keep an eye on what’s going on in the bank?
