Chapter 257 The Wind is Changing, Get Ready to Leave
Everything was as Lu An expected; Hu Chengsheng had indeed made a backup plan.
The next day, when Mu Qinghong and Mu Chenggang went to the bank to withdraw money, they were told that the approval process had not been completed and their deposit information had not been reported to the branch, so they could not withdraw the money for the time being.
Lu An readily asked Zhao Yuedong for leave again and set up a table at Jianghuai Hotel.
At first the bank director didn't intend to pay attention to Lu An. He felt that Lu An, Mu Qinghong and Mu Chenggang were just youngsters who had made a little money by luck, and they dared to order him around?
He even said arrogantly: "The person standing in front of you now is the director of the Qinghu branch. With just one word from me, all your deposits will be reimbursed. Don't even think about withdrawing them for the rest of your life!"
Lu An chuckled and hung up the phone, then called back to his workplace and asked Zhao Hu to use the workplace's phone to call the bank director.
After receiving the call from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the director suddenly understood everything. He patted his chest and said to Mu Qinghong and Mu Chenggang: "The person standing in front of you now is the director of the Qinghu Branch. My job is to serve the people. I have checked your deposit process again for you. The procedures have been completed. You can withdraw your money at any time!"
At noon, the bank director came to Jianghuai Hotel. He took the initiative to toast Lu An and apologize, saying that it was all his fault for not recognizing his talent.
Lu An did not make it difficult for him, and frankly said that he understood the difficulties of the bank: "As long as you do things honestly and according to the rules, I will definitely not cause you any trouble."
Lu An also reintroduced Mu Qinghong and Mu Chenggang, saying that they would have to deal with banks when doing business in the future, and this time he was just bringing them to make friends with the director.
Upon hearing this, Mu Qinghong and her brother raised their glasses to toast.
The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.
Because of the special nature of his unit, the bank director has seen a lot of the world.
He saw that Lu An had perfect control over the situation and his work procedures were very methodical.
He concluded that Lu An was no ordinary person.
So he then took the initiative to reveal to Lu An that it was Hu Chengsheng who asked him to do so.
"He asked me to temporarily withhold your funds. He said that the money was only temporarily kept by you and he would take it back sooner or later."
"I also advised him that this was not the right thing to do, but I owed him a favor, so it was hard to refuse him."
Lu An did not believe the bank director's explanation nor did he expose it, but still pointed out to him: as long as you follow the rules and do not bend the law for personal gain, there will be no problem.
He immediately understood and swore loudly that he would do his job well!
After dealing with the bank director, Mu Qinghong and Mu Chenggang's subsequent withdrawals were relatively smooth.
Of course, they followed Lu An's instructions and did not make things difficult for the bank director. They withdrew money every day within the upper limit that did not require reporting and approval.
Then immediately take the money to another bank to open a new account and deposit it.
Three days passed like this. On the fourth day, Lu An came to the office in the morning to get the latest issue of the daily newspaper. He turned to the economic section, which reported yesterday's Shenhai stock market situation.
The communications sector continued to perform well, but it fell back somewhat compared to the strong performance in the previous trading days.
As of yesterday's closing, the average increase was only 8 percentage points.
Lu An immediately realized that the wind was about to change.
You should know that with the media reporting on possible new policies every day, the communications sector has been seeing a fierce rise in prices at the opening in recent days.
But it happened that yesterday it closed at only 8 percentage points.
Maybe it still looks good, but Lu An knows that this is the result of the banker cashing out at a high price.
And today is the last trading day of this week, so the trend ends here.
He immediately called Mu Qinghong and told her to withdraw as much money as possible today. She didn't have to deposit it after withdrawing it, but could just take it all back to Pingjiang.
Mu Qinghong was prepared for this, but she still had one question: What kind of business could she start after returning to Pingjiang? Could she just hide it?
Lu An didn't have any requirements for this, and said that under normal circumstances it would be fine to just hide it. After all, if it made too much noise, it would be very troublesome for Hu Chengsheng to get the news. Anyway, the director was scared, so there was no need to worry about the money disappearing in the bank.
"If you really can't sit still, Sister Hong, you can also get a driver's license, get a tricycle or a truck, and go to the countryside to collect cash crops such as sweet potatoes, betel nuts and taro and resell them in the county."
"There is a boss named Hu in Linhe Town who does this kind of business of reselling agricultural products. He can make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, which is pretty good."
At the same time, Lu An also reminded Mu Qinghong to pay attention to safety and to understand the situation before deciding whether to do it. Even if she had to do it, she must be with Mu Chenggang and never act alone.
As the saying goes, cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing his parents. The countryside in this era was far less peaceful than in later generations, so we had to be careful.
Ah!
Mu Qinghong agreed obediently, but she was worried whether Lu An would be in danger.
If Hu Chengsheng can't find them, he will definitely look for Lu An.
Lu An asked her to relax: "What problem can there be with me in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection? If he dares to make trouble in the Provincial Party Committee compound, we can just arrest him!"
As for Hu Chengsheng's report, there is no need to worry.
First of all, on the surface, I have nothing to do with the paging station.
Secondly, buying and selling is a matter of mutual consent. I did not force the sale. The bank director even testified that Hu Chengsheng was more active than me. It makes no sense for him to seek compensation now.
The last thing is what Lu An is most relieved about. Lu An believes that Hu Chengsheng must have borrowed a lot of high-interest loans to be able to raise such a large sum of money in a short period of time.
"Once the shutdown policy comes out, the paging station will be worthless, and loan sharks will come to him first."
"Even if he wants to make trouble with me, I'm afraid he won't have the time. He and Shen Fengwen and the others will have to run away to avoid debt first."
"Why would he have the time to waste with me here? Unless he is not afraid of loan sharks breaking his hands and feet."
It turns out you were already prepared!
Mu Qinghong finally felt relieved...
