Chapter 904 I’m not interested in money
"Everyone in the Finance Department will work overtime tonight. I don't care what method you use, but you must fill all the holes before tomorrow!"
The financial director was horrified: "Mr. Wu, isn't it too much of a hassle to mobilize so many people just for such a piece of information from an uncertain source?"
The company executives present were whispering among themselves, many of whom supported the CFO.
However, Mr. Wu just glanced at everyone coldly, and the conference room instantly returned to silence. Then he walked up to the financial director, pointed at Tian Xiaohui and spoke word by word.
"Didn't you hear what she said just now? If you embezzle special loans, you will go to jail. Will you go? Or should I go?"
At this moment, the financial director didn't dare to say anything more. He walked out of the office quickly and gathered all the financial department staff.
"I don't care what method you use. You must take out all the funds you can use and complete the Paradise Island project for me. Anyone who drags your feet will be kicked out!"
Suddenly the Finance Department was in chaos.
The financial director looked at Tian Xiaohui who had returned from the conference room and glared at her fiercely: "Your news had better be true, otherwise, get ready to get out."
Although Tian Xiaohui was a little nervous, she had already done what she wanted and there was no turning back, so she could only work overtime with everyone else.
During the process, Tao Wuji called Tian Xiaohui many times, but Tian Xiaohui did not answer. She was so busy that she had no time to listen to Tao Wuji's meaningless talk.
Tao Wuji thought his girlfriend was really angry, and he felt very uneasy and didn't sleep well all night.
It was not until around eleven o'clock in the evening, when she was having supper, that Tian Xiaohui had time to catch her breath, but she called Qin Hao.
"Hey, Lao Qin, I've already told Mr. Wu the news. Now the entire finance department is working overtime all night."
Qin Hao stared at the U.S. stock market and comforted her, "Now that things have come to this, you don't have to worry too much. One job can test whether your cousin's information is reliable. Think about it, isn't it a good deal?"
Tian Xiaohui was also amused: "Don't mention it, it's true."
"Then I'll hang up first, and you should go to bed early."
"The U.S. stock market has just opened, I need to keep an eye on it for a while."
"By the way, I've heard you say that you invested all your money in U.S. stocks. How are the returns now?" Tian Xiaohui asked curiously.
Qin Hao said casually: "Not bad, it's almost ten times more."
"Ten times? That's okay?" Tian Xiaohui was stunned. She suddenly felt that the midnight snack in her hand was not delicious anymore. Is this human language?
If it were someone else, Tian Xiaohui would definitely think that this was bragging. How long has it been? Even Warren Buffett couldn't do a tenfold return, right?
But when Qin Hao said this, Tian Xiaohui had no doubt at all. After all, when Qin Hao was investing in A-shares, he made his first million in his life with 23 in just two months.
"Then you are worth tens of millions now, right?" Tian Xiaohui suddenly thought of it after being stunned for a moment.
Qin Hao said calmly: "If converted into RMB, it's about the same."
Tian Xiaohui smiled bitterly: "From your tone, people who don't know would think you earn one thousand yuan, not ten million."
"Actually, I'm not that interested in money."
"Haha, guess whether I believe it or not."
After hanging up the phone, Tian Xiaohui was still restless. What was the concept of 10 million? It could solve all her practical problems, such as buying a house, getting married, and even her children's education.
"Oh, what a pity! This 10 million belongs to someone else and has nothing to do with you. You still have to work hard with your poor boyfriend to save for the down payment and repay the mortgage."
When she thought of this, Tian Xiaohui felt that the lunch box in her hand tasted even less delicious.
Just as Tian Xiaohui threw the lunch box into the trash can and was about to go back to her workstation to continue working, Mr. Wu walked up to her.
"Mr. Wu."
Seeing Tian Xiaohui looking somewhat at a loss, Mr. Wu patted her shoulder with a friendly look and said, "Your name is Tian Xiaohui, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Wu."
"How long have you been in the company?"
"It's been more than half a month."
Mr. Wu nodded calmly: "Can you tell me which bank the friend who told you this news works in?"
Seeing Tian Xiaohui's hesitation, Mr. Wu said softly, "Don't worry, I will never leak this news. But since you, my friend, have helped me so much, I have to show some appreciation."
Tian Xiaohui thought of Qin Hao's explanation: "My friend works at the Binjiang branch of Shenzhen Mao Bank."
"Binjiang Branch?" Mr. Wu secretly noted it down, and then asked, "Which department does your friend work for?"
"In the corporate business department."
"Oh?" Mr. Wu's eyes lit up. As someone who works in real estate and has been dealing with banks for many years, he naturally knows the value of the corporate business department.
"Can you tell me your friend's name and his contact information?"
Tian Xiaohui shook her head when she heard this. Although Qin Hao said that she could tell Mr. Wu his information, if the information given by her cousin Shen Jing was false, it might implicate the other party. She still wanted to wait until the dust settled before telling it.
Seeing this, Mr. Wu did not ask any more questions, but patted Tian Xiaohui on the shoulder and said, "Do a good job. I believe in you."
Tian Xiaohui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this young Mr. Wu didn't look much older than her and was usually quite easy-going, for some reason, Tian Xiaohui always felt an inexplicable pressure in front of him.
The entire Finance Department was brightly lit, and everyone worked all night, finally filling in all the accounts before going to work.
However, no one from Legg Mason Bank showed up until the end of the morning shift.
For a moment, all colleagues in the Finance Department looked at Tian Xiaohui with a reproachful look.
"What's this audit? Maybe someone just said it casually to attract Mr. Wu's attention?"
"Alas, it's a pity that we had to stay up all night to fill this hole."
Faced with the discussions of her colleagues, Tian Xiaohui felt somewhat uneasy. She was absent-minded during lunch and kept begging the people from Legg Mason Bank to come in the afternoon.
However, at two o'clock in the afternoon, there was still no movement.
As time passed, Tian Xiaohui was in extreme torment.
By five o'clock in the afternoon, some employees who had come to work early had already started to prepare to leave, and there was no sign of anyone from Legg Mason Bank.
The financial director could no longer hold back and rushed to Tian Xiaohui and roared, "Where is the person? Where is the person you mentioned?"
"Now, get out of my sight immediately, and don't let me see you again!"
Tian Xiaohui could only feel sad in secret. She packed up her things silently, handed her work badge to the HR department, and prepared to leave with her personal belongings.
"Hey, Lao Qin, the people from Legg Mason Bank didn't come. I'm fired."
Qin Hao heard Tian Xiaohui's lonely voice and comforted her softly, "It's not a big deal. Doesn't this prove that your cousin is unreliable?"
Tian Xiaohui burst into laughter and said, "It seems to be true."
"Are you free tonight? I want to drink."
"I'm always at your service."
Just when Tian Xiaohui was about to leave in a car, Mr. Wu chased after her.
"Tian Xiaohui, wait a moment."
"Mr. Wu, what are you doing?"
"I'm returning your ID card to you. The people from Legg Mason Bank are here."
"What? When did they get here?"
"Not even three minutes after you left."
"So, I don't have to be fired?"
Mr. Wu laughed out loud: "You have made such a great contribution to the company. I will let anyone who asks you to leave."
Tian Xiaohui said excitedly to the other end of the phone: "Lao Qin, did you hear that? I don't have to be fired."
"Okay, I heard you. Go ahead and do your work. Call me anytime if you need anything."
"Ok, bye."
After hanging up the phone, Tian Xiaohui felt a little embarrassed when she saw that Mr. Wu was still staring at her.
"Boyfriend?" Mr. Wu asked.
Seeing Tian Xiaohui shaking her head, Mr. Wu rolled his eyes and asked, "Could it be the friend from the Binjiang branch you mentioned?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Tian Xiaohui's eyes, which was keenly caught by Mr. Wu.
"Well, it seems that you have a very good relationship. When can you introduce us to each other? You know, our real estate company has to deal with banks. More friends means more opportunities."
"Then I'll ask him later."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
When Tian Xiaohui returned to Junlong Real Estate, her colleagues looked at her differently. Those who had made sarcastic remarks about her before were now unceremonious when they saw her. This also made Tian Xiaohui realize how fickle human nature is.
Mr. Wu kept his word. Not only did he increase Tian Xiaohui's salary, he also assigned some important projects to her.
However, Tao Wuji, who had not been able to contact Tian Xiaohui for several days, was almost going crazy. After get off work, he ran to the Junlong Real Estate building to pick up Tian Xiaohui.
"Xiaohui, why don't you answer my calls? I'm so worried."
Faced with Tao Wuji's worried face, Tian Xiaohui felt a little soft-hearted for a moment.
"Humph, why am I answering your call? Do I want to listen to your big talk again?"
Tao Wuji smiled and coaxed Tian Xiaohui for a while, and finally made her forgive him.
In a restaurant, after the dishes were served, Tao Wuji asked about Tian Xiaohui's situation these days.
Tian Xiaohui originally had no intention of hiding it from Tao Wuji, but then she thought that misappropriation of special loans was a serious violation of regulations. If Tao Wuji knew about it, she might have to persuade the boss to surrender. So, Tian Xiaohui just used a project to rush the completion date and kept working overtime to fool him.
On the other hand, Qin Hao was not idle either. On the day when Meisheng Bank went to Junlong Real Estate to check the accounts, Zhou Lin asked Su Jianren to have dinner at a high-end restaurant.
Su Jianren naturally agreed to the appointment, but with Qin Hao's reminder, Su Jianren still faced Zhou Lin with caution at first.
However, the fragility of Su Jianren's psychological defenses was far beyond Qin Hao's imagination, and Zhou Lin fooled him with just a few words.
Especially when Zhou Lin took out a watch and handed it to Su Jianren, Su Jianren saw that the watch Zhou Lin gave her was a pair with the one she was wearing, and thought that Zhou Lin had changed her mind about him, so he happily put it on his wrist.
Qin Hao held his forehead when he saw this scene. If he had not made preparations in advance, Su Jianren would have died at the hands of Zhou Lin.
Looking at a couple across the street holding a SLR camera and pretending to take pictures of the scenery, but actually recording the scene, Qin Hao's eyes flashed a sneer, but he did not stop them.
Not long after, Zhou Lin and the couple left one after another. Su Jianren then walked up to Qin Hao with a lingering look on his face.
"Xiao Qin, what do you think of this watch?"
Qin Hao said meaningfully: "What's wrong with a replica watch?"
Su Jianren raised his eyebrows. "It's because it's a replica that I dare to accept it. A genuine watch of the same model would cost at least 400,000 yuan. Where did Zhou Lin get the money to give me such an expensive gift? Although it's fake, it's also a high-quality replica. It's a pair with hers."
Seeing that Su Jianren was still immersed in the gentle land and unable to extricate himself, Qin Hao directly shattered his fantasy.
"Su Xing, do you really think that the watch Zhou Lin is going to give you is a fake one?"
"Is there any mystery in this watch?"
Su Jianren was stunned, and then began to feel the watch, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find anything unusual.
Qin Hao pointed at the seats where Su Jianren and Zhou Lin had just sat with a playful look: "Just an hour ago, Zhao Hui sat in your seat, and Zhou Lin also gave him a similar watch."
"What? Impossible."
Su Jianren retorted subconsciously, and then he cursed again the next second: "Xie Zhiyuan, you bastard, is trying to kill two birds with one stone again."
"Xie Zhiyuan is not just trying to kill two birds with one stone. He wants to destroy you."
"What's going on?"
After Qin Hao saw Su Jianren calm down, he told the story: "Actually, Xie Zhiyuan prepared two watches, one is real and the other is a replica. They were both given to Zhou Lin. Originally, the fake one was supposed to be given to Zhao Hui."
"No, I don't quite understand what the point of Xie Zhiyuan doing this is? Even if he asks Zhou Lin to give me a real watch, if I don't accept it, wouldn't it be useless?"
"Even if you don't want to accept it, what if Zhou Lin said in a gentle voice that she just wanted you to try it on? Who can prove that you finally gave it back to her?"
Su Jianren was speechless and his face turned pale in an instant.
Qin Hao continued, "Just now, there was a young couple taking pictures diagonally opposite you. Do you still remember them?"
"Yes, yes." Su Jianren's tone was obviously a little guilty.
Qin Hao rolled his eyes. So your attention was all on Zhou Lin just now, right?
“They were just filming you.”
"This must have been done by Xie Zhiyuan. This bastard is capable of using any despicable tricks."
Su Jianren cursed for several minutes before he gradually calmed down: "What should I do now?"
"Don't worry. Just before Zhou Lin came, I had already swapped the watches in her bag. I think it would be hard to tell which watch is real and which is fake just by looking at the photos of the watches. Let's just go with the flow."
"How to go with the flow?"
"I believe the audit department will receive the report soon. You can hand over this fake watch to Song Xing tonight. Then there will be something interesting to watch."
Su Jianren seemed to have thought of Zhao Hui's frustrated look, and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.
"However, Su Xing, don't be too happy too soon. If you don't do something in advance, Zhao Hui and Xie Zhiyuan will kill you in a minute."
