Chapter 243: Strangers

Chapter 41 White Strangers

The stranger sat in the office of the A City Branch Governor of Huaxia Bank with a smile. He was wearing a very slim casual suit, a snowy shirt with two loose buttons and a tie across his neck, looking, discreet and unrestrained, that is, elegant and flattering.

Shi Chang, president of A Division Branch of Huaxia Bank, was at the meeting, heard the stranger come, slightly stunned, then asked the secretary to arrange for him to wait in his office, the meeting could only hasten a paragraph. Immediately afterwards, he rushed towards the office.

Before entering the office, he just walked into his office area, and Shi Changshu immediately greeted his secretary. The secretary's name is Hu Xiao. She has followed Shi Changshu for many years. She looks beautiful and has a good body. But if she thought she was a vase, she would be mistaken. Her work experience and abilities are absolutely convincing.

Hu Xiaogang had just sent a nice glass of Iron Guanyin to the white stranger and slowly withdrew from the Governor's office, gently closing the gorgeous and beautiful carved wooden door. I just turned around and saw Shichang standing outside the office area waving at her. She nodded gently and walked towards Shichang without delay. There was no rush when the general secretary met the boss, and no subordinates saw the boss's flattery, as faint as usual.

This is exactly why Shi Chang is so impressed with Xiaoxiao. She is able to maintain a calm mood and a secure world attitude at all times, so that she will never act out of common sense and naturally will not make mistakes.

A subordinate who doesn't make mistakes sounds incredible, but Hu Xiao is such a person.

She walked in front of Shi Chang's book without hesitation and greeted him with a humble greeting: "Governor, are you looking for me? ”

Shi Chang nodded and frowned slightly, looking a little uneasy: “Why is he here? ”

“I don't know, Mr. White didn't mention it to me.” Hu Xiao is somewhat sorry. In fact, according to her identity, many people who come to work with Shi Changsheu will first let Hu Xiaotong know what they want to do. Please Hu Xiao staff for himself to see if it is possible, and Hu Xiao will objectively help them analyze the situation. Of course, at the same time, she will diligently tell Shi Changsheu and tell Shi Changsheu what analysis she has made together, so as to help him analyze the situation as much as possible.

It is precisely because Hu Xiao plays such an important role, even sometimes you can influence the decision of Shi Changbai, and let those who come to work with Shi Changbai will definitely like Hu Xiaobai. Shi Changshu will also know in advance from Hu Xiao the purpose of the people who came to him, so that he can prepare himself fully.

This time, however, it was strange, white stranger came to Shi Chang book, said nothing, which made Shi Chang book a little hidden anxiety.

The Bai family, in fact, can't be offended.

Although Bai Zixuan has no brothers, and Bai Jiao is the only son, the Bai family cannot be offended.

Huaxia Bank is just a private bank that has emerged for over seventy or eighty years, but by now it has been able to catch up with the national bank, and even surpassed many national banks in gold reserves, rightly the first private bank in China. And this bank was in bankruptcy for five or six years.

Just as the assets had been evaluated and ready for auction, a person had signed a permanent contract with the then Chairman of Huaxia Bank. The so-called permanent contract is that as long as Huaxia Bank is in one day, the contract will remain in effect, even if Huaxia is bankrupt one day and acquired by another bank or state.

In fact, in terms of time limits alone, this is already an unequal contract, not to mention the fact that the terms of the contract are unfair. However, it is such an unfair contract that it is legal and actually established. This is, of course, related to the treaty signed by the president of Huaxia Bank at the same time as the contract to forever renounce the legality of the contract.

Nobody wanted to be a fool, and so did the chairman of Huaxia Bank. The only reason he was willing to do so was because he had in his possession the wealth of an enemy country, and he promised to deposit it all in the Bank of Huaxia, and within a decade he had to ask the Bank of Huaxia about its use of that wealth, which, I must say, was an extremely adventurous decision at the time. Huaxia Bank did live from the death of this tremendous wealth, but what if Huaxia Bank was still weak? Isn't this money a float?

So, I have to say, that guy was very eye-catching back then.

In the contract signed that year, the person only took 49% of the shares of Huaxia Bank and did not participate in the management. According to outsiders, the 49% shares were also Huaxia Bank's own, but only Huaxia Bank itself knew that whenever the person had taken the shares, Huaxia Bank immediately left only an empty shelf.

It's been years, and that person hasn't come back. The tremendous wealth he handed over to Huaxia Bank became an amazing and increasingly amazing amount of gold deposited in Huaxia Bank's underground vault. Along with the gold in the Huaxia Bank underground vault, there's also the contract that saved Huaxia Bank's life.

That man back then, Baek. And he's not someone else, he's White Zixuan's grandfather, a stranger's great-grandfather.

Nobody knows where the white family got that money, because the white family is just a small, ordinary people. In fact, it probably has to do with the character of the white family, who prefer to live a normal life to the people of the upstream society who are thrilled by the wind and water.

The stranger knew about it when he was twenty. At that time, Baek Zixuan handed over all the contracts and seals to the stranger, while also telling him that after the last 10 years, the white family could use the money only if it was determined on the basis of the seals and the blood of the white family. However, it seems that the white family has forgotten about it, or that generations of white families have become accustomed to this kind of civilian parents for a short time, and no one has ever gone to Huaxia Bank to collect the money. However, the fact that the Bai family did not take the money does not mean that the money went to Huaxia Bank for nothing. On the contrary, although the bigger the money in Huaxia Bank, like a snowball, Huaxia Bank began to eagerly expect the white family to collect the money, and feared the white family to collect the money.

I was hoping that the Bai family would come to collect the money, because Huaxia Bank would rather have a brief pain than a long one. Once the money was taken away, Huaxia Bank would not have to think about splitting a large portion of the money to the Bai family in the future.

Afraid that the Bai family would come to collect the money, that is because Huaxia Bank now holds 63% of the shares, of which the Bai family makes up 49%. If the Bai family takes the money, the invisibility of Huaxia Bank is equivalent to the Easy Owner. Therefore, Huaxia Bank is afraid that the Bai family will come to take the money, and if it is really taken away, Huaxia Bank's decades of basic business will only be ruined.

As Huaxia Bank's plate grows, so does this fear, but the white family hasn't shown up for decades, leaving Huaxia Bank somewhat fortunate psychological, perhaps, the white family is long gone.

This luck was completely broken until the appearance of a stranger.

Huaxia Bank is a private bank, but it is also a family business. The chairman of the first generation of Huaxia Bank is Shi, the grandfather of Shi Changshu. Unlike the white family, in the past few decades, the Shi family has been spreading leaves for many grandchildren. But they are also managerial, and even family businesses are not on the same path as three generations old. Shi Changshu's generation of uncles and brothers has a total of six, but according to their abilities, only three people actually sat in the position of branch manager like Shi Changshu now. As for the other three, because of their lack of ability, they were only able to divide up a small amount of household property, which was just a bleak way to live.

Five years ago, when a white stranger appeared in Shi Chang's office with a seal and a college certificate, Shi Chang couldn't believe his eyes. Because, as a child, they knew about the White Family, but they had never met the White Family, and they even thought that the White Family was either dead or that it was a joke that didn't exist at all.

So when the white stranger flexibly appeared in front of Shi Chang, he didn't say a word for three minutes.

At that time, his whole brain was blank, and even he thought that Huaxia Bank would be finished. But the teenager, who was only 20 years old, laughed at him and said, "I'm not here to collect money, and I don't want to know exactly how many assets the Bai family has at Huaxia Bank. I came here for the sole purpose of telling you that the White House has descendants. ”

That's easy.

And after Shi Changshu and the entire Huaxia Bank confirmed that his seal and blood proved to be true, the stranger left Huaxia Bank and never showed up again. But that night, all the stone families, none of them fell asleep, they didn't spend that night in a kind of pain.

Then the white family disappeared again.

White stranger, like he said, he never took the money, not to mention the only white diamond account belonging to Huaxia Bank, like he said, never showed up again.

That's it, five more years later.

Although Huaxia Bank had contemplated many ways of transferring property over the past five years, there was no way to move, because the day after the appearance of the stranger, they had been subjected to comprehensive surveillance by the Economic Court, in which case they could only continue to operate Huaxia Bank, and there was no other way.

Over the past five years, Shi Chang has often wondered in what position a white stranger would appear, high toes or small caution. But how could he not have thought that the timing of the resurgence of the ghostly white family was so sudden that he was even a little overwhelmed?

Why did he come here this time?

Secretary Shi took a long breath and tried to calm down his mood.

No one, knowing that someone is stuck around their neck, can be completely calm, even if it is a long-standing stone book that has been in the mall for years. He stood in front of the engraved door for a while before opening it and walking in.

Five years later, that handsome teenager had grown more mature. He was standing right there in front of the glass window, holding a cup of tea and watching the city quietly.

“Mr. Bai.” Shi Chang looked at the shadow of a stranger with a professional smile on his face.

The white stranger turned his head and looked at the long book of stone standing at the door, revealing a gentle and elegant smile: “Mr. stone, it's been a long time. ”

“Yeah, five years in a row, time is like a white foal.” Though he is a businessman, Shi Chang's bones carry a kind of elegance from a literary man because the Shi family is born of the book Xiangmen.

“I finally know why banks are so tall.” Once again, the white stranger turned his face, dropped his eyes, blew the white mist on the cup, lifted the cup and sipped it on his lips.

“Why?” Shi Chang walked to a stranger and looked down at the bustling city with him.

The stranger did not answer Shi Changshu, but smiled. “Don't you want to know what I'm doing here, Mr. Shi? ”

“If Mr. Bai is coming, even if I don't ask, he will surely tell me, why should I rush?” White strangers have the ability to be at peace, even though Shi Changshen was uncertain before entering the office, but now, standing next to White strangers, he doesn't know why his heart suddenly calms down.

“I'll give you a heartbeat first.” Smiling in vain: “I'm not taking that money away, never. As long as we had a good time working with each other, I thought that money would always be in Huaxia Bank and could always be Huaxia Bank's life-saving money. ”

Shi Chang's words stunned him slightly, and it appeared that the young man, too young and gentle, was not as simple as he appeared to be without heart. Because he seemed to see some Xuan machines from a stranger's inconceivable smile.

However, Shi Changshu didn't say anything. He is not a young man, let alone a rookie involved in the mall. Of course, he wouldn't mind these words. Even if Shi Changshu knew something unfavourable about Huaxia Bank, after all, he still felt confident in dealing with such a young man who didn't even have hair.

“Thank you first, Mr. Bai.” Though a little unhappy with the white words, Shi Chang did not show up, but turned around with a laugh and walked towards his huge desk. As he walked, he reached for the chair at his desk: "Mr. White, please take a seat. ”

The white stranger stood still, looking quietly at the Stone Book and not sitting down, he smiled at the chairs and walked towards the sofa in the reception area, then gracefully sat on the couch. His two slender legs gracefully stacked together, a pair of slender hands held the cup of tea quietly on his knees, while his face was still smiling.

Standing at his desk, Shi Zheng's book was a slight glimpse, which he did not expect. Instead of sitting in his designated position, the stranger returned to sit on the couch. It seemed like a very normal move, but in the eyes of Shi Chang, it was less normal.

When people come to him to do business, there will be a Lord from the psyche. He is Shi Changshu is the Lord, and those who come to him to do business will follow. Even if this is not the case, after sitting across the street from Shi Chang, there will be more or less such a psychology.

This is a normal phenomenon. When two people are sitting opposite each other, in fact, the slightly higher side of the seat will be psychologically higher than the slightly lower side of the seat, even if the conversation is equal at first, but at the end of the day, more or less will be affected by psychological implication, and there will be some deviation in judgment.

Today, as usual, he invited the stranger to sit on the chair opposite him, but surprised him that the stranger had done so on the sofa in the reception area, which was 10 metres away from him, and still smiled at him.

At such a distance, it was impossible for Stone to sit on his boss's chair and talk to a white stranger, which would be detrimental to his ability to capture a white stranger's expression, but it was also impossible for him to drag a chair across the street from the white stranger because there was a short couch next to the white stranger, and if he dragged a chair at this time, it would be too obvious.

After a slight hesitation, the Stone Book went to sit on the couch next to the white stranger. In the invisible, the distance between the two people is much closer and the position is much more equal, although Shi Chang is a little uncomfortable.

“Mr. Shi has a lot of good tea here.” One more sip of tea with a white smile before putting the cup on the table. He does not intend to circle with Shi Chang Book. After all, he is deeper than the old plot. He is not comparable to Shi Chang Book. Shi Chang Book is about the same age as Bai Zixuan. White strangers do not think that such a long age is fictitious. Since he can sit in today's position, he must not be waiting for idle generations. It is better to deal with such a person or go straight.

“If Mr. Bai likes it, take some home.” Shi Chang was not in a hurry, but continued to chill with the white stranger.

“Huaxia Bank already has the funds to invest in destiny. Or is it Mr. Shi who has invested some of the money from City A Branch in his destiny?” White strangers still smile, but the words are not easy to deal with.

Shi Changshu's hand shook. How did the stranger know about this? But Shi Chang Book is Shi Chang Book, how can you be frightened by the words of a stranger? He immediately laughed: “Destiny is such a fire that it will surely become the mainstay of the virtual economy in the future. I don't think it's just me, the merchant with a slight eye, who won't give up investing money in destiny. ”

“It's natural.” A stranger nods: “So I also want to take some money into destiny. ”

Shi Changshu finally let go of his heart. He thought it was a big deal for a stranger to come to him. Turns out it was just to take some money and put it into destiny. His smile suddenly became more sincere: “No problem, I'll arrange someone to help Mr. Bai immediately, I don't know how much Mr. Bai is going to invest? ”

“Huaxia, 49% equity. All assets in my white family's name.” The white stranger still smiled like that, but the words made Shi Chang's face change.

He frowned: “Mr. Bai, how many did you say? ”

“I said it all.” The stranger still smiled, as if he was just talking about a few bucks of garlic.

“Mr. White! You seem to have just told me that you will never take the money!” Shi Chang knows that he is a little unstable and even a little restless, but who can hear the news continue to calm down. He even felt a little angry. At his age, he was fooled into applause by this kid!

“Yeah, that was based on the fact that Mr. Shi was sincere to me, too.” In the face of Shi Chang's anger, the stranger didn't think to move at all.

“I'm not sincere? Since I've been in the office, I haven't said anything to Mr. Bai. ”

“Do you have sincerity? ”

Shi Changshu was made very wolfish by a stranger's counter-announcement, and suddenly he laughed coldly: “Mr. Bai, you don't have to scare me like this. Do you know how much this money is? ”

The stranger shook his head honestly: "I don't know. ”

Shi Chang wrote ironically: "I don't know, do you dare throw all your money into fate? You think I'm a three-year-old kid and scared? There's no fool in the world who doesn't look at consequences. ”

“Back then, the white family put the money into Huaxia Bank, didn't it?” The stranger merely responded faintly to the mockery of Shi Chang.

Shi Changshu seemed choked by something at once. He couldn't say anything. He could only stare at the stranger. He looked quietly at the white stranger's face and seemed to be thinking that the white stranger's words were true and fake. However, the white stranger or the one who had smiled since entering the house made him have no idea what the white stranger was thinking.

Finally, Shi Chang sighed: “Ming people don't insinuate, Mr. Bai, what exactly do you want me to do? ”

It didn't seem like she was laughing until she heard it. He took two sheets of paper out of his suit coat and put it on the coffee table: “I want it simple, I just want you to stop the loan from both of them and get the loan from both of them. ”

Shi Chang picked up the two pieces of paper, and it said the names of two people, one Lei Mang and one Yi Zhong. The business of handling loans, as the president's market, is naturally unclear. He can only ask a stranger to sit down and then call the credit department to check with the employees there. Soon after, the credit department had returned the message, but Hu Xiao answered the phone outside the office and Hu Xiao called Shi Changshu.

Shi Changshu answered the phone from the beginning to the end only with an MMMM answer. There was no substantive answer, so that he could not know and guess what Hu Xiao had said to him. However, the more careful he looked at it, this should not be good news.

White stranger just sat quietly on the sofa, fingers rolled around on the teacup, silently looked at the look on Shi Chang's face, no one could see what he was thinking.

After a while, Shi Changshu dropped his phone and looked down at the two pieces of paper. After a moment, he looked up and laughed. He walked towards the stranger. As he walked, he laughed more and more fondly: “Oops, Oops, these people are not happy with their hands and feet. Let Mr. Bai wait a long time, don't be angry. ”

“Where.”

Shi Changshu walked from his desk towards the sofa with a white stranger sitting on it. On the way, though he was laughing, his eyes kept staring at the white stranger's face, quietly measuring the expression on his face, angrily afraid to miss a little clue. He now needs to know what the white stranger's heart was thinking, but he was a little disappointed, the white stranger still looked that quiet. In other words, there is no rush or expectation, as if Shi Changshu's phone call just now had nothing to do with himself.

This too calm emotion actually affects more or less Shi Chang's judgment. He sat down, put the two pieces of paper on the table, slightly shrugged, and then said with a smile: “Mr. Bai, I just had the credit department check it out. The two men did lend money in our bank, and the number was not small. I'm just wondering, do these two have anything to do with Mr. White? ”

The stranger blinked: "Why? Does this have anything to do with what I asked Mr. Shi to do? ”

“This…”

“Or is Mr. Shi not a banker, but a superman who saves the world? If I say that they have problems with me, Mr. Shi immediately exasperates me. If I say no, Mr. Shi persuades me so that I can forgive people and forgive people, besides, who have no strong relationship?” The stranger laughed lightly: “Is that so? ”

Shi Changshu smiled embarrassingly: “Mr. Bai joked. ”

“I like to joke, Mr. Shi, don't be weird yet.” The beautiful eyes of the white stranger narrow, no one can see what the real emotions are in those narrow eyes.

Shi Chang exhaled herself in a dark breath. This white stranger is really a little difficult to deal with. He wanted to explore his tone, to know exactly what kind of festivities he had with these two people, in absolute terms, but now, at first glance, it's impossible. This stranger has a tighter mouth than their bank vault, and it's unlikely he'll find anything in his mouth.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt like he still shouldn't go into circles with this young man. Although, he didn't want to admit it, he had to say at this time that it was really uncomfortable for people to get stuck around his neck. “The loans between these two are actually a bit troublesome. ”

“Oh?”

“Their loan was guaranteed by He Shi Group, and the whole process was legal and reasonable. If we were to force them to take back their loan, it would be necessary to offend He Shi Group...” Shi Chang Shu spoke here and took a deep look at the stranger, but he found that the stranger seemed somewhat distracted, as if he was not listening to him seriously. White stranger's expression made Shi Chang Shu a little angry. However, a person had to bow his head under the eaves. Given his current situation, he could not directly flip with White stranger. He could only coax the young man with good words and let him know that he was in trouble. “Mr. Bai may not know that we are very close partners with He Shi Group, and now we have a couple of good cooperation projects, if, at this time, we are stuck because of this little thing, just afraid...”

White stranger didn't read the Stone Book, his eyes were all over the giant landing glass.

In this city, gorgeous high-rise buildings can be seen everywhere, and the smell of money pervades the flourishing life. However, although there are many high-rise buildings in the city, skyscrapers like Huaxia Bank are really not much. A stranger just stood out in front of a window and saw the whole city stepping at his feet. He suddenly realized why so many people were crazy about money. In fact, it's not how tempting money is, but the feeling of being high and looking down on people is really fascinating.

A little man like him who has been buried in the dust may not be able to comprehend at once how such a tall man is obsessed with this feeling, but he thinks he can understand what it would be like to die if this tall cornerstone collapsed all of a sudden.

Trance remembers that when he was twelve or three years old, he saw on television a variety of buildings that could be built with matchsticks, and he tried with joy. He chose a very difficult target - the Eiffel Tower. I don't even remember how much matches he used, but instead of eating, sleeping and going to school, he put all his energy on that Eiffel Tower. It took a semester, and his vomiting bleeding was finally coming to an end, but because of his own little mistake, the Eiffel Tower collapsed completely in seconds.

The stranger still remembers how he felt when the Eiffel Tower collapsed, and he just stood there, blank in his head, as if all the time had stopped like this, and he couldn't even breathe. Later, there was an unspeakable pain coming out of his left chest, and he fell from his chair, trembling, but couldn't cry.

That feeling is probably called living rather than dying.

He picked up a cup of tea and quietly thought, if he took all the money out at this time, for Shi Chang Book, for Huaxia Bank, does it also feel like when the Eiffel Tower collapsed? Better to live than die? Or even more.

Whatever it is, however, does not seem to have much to do with white strangers.

“Mr. Shi, what's that building over there?” The stranger suddenly raised his hand, pointing to another skyscraper about the height of Huaxia Bank, and asked, so easily interrupting Shi Chang's chatter.

Shi Chang was unknown by the white stranger, but he turned around unconsciously and looked in the direction of the white finger's past. However, after looking at the skyscraper that the stranger pointed at, his subconscious appearance on his face revealed an intriguing glimmer of disdain. “It's the Empire State Building. It's the Wall Bank building. ”

Wall Bank and Huaxia Bank don't look at the difference between one word, but they are the opposite of the other. They have been established for about the same time and have developed at about the same speed, and are now together becoming indispensable crocodiles in China's banking community. Their strengths are very different and ranked alike, and the two families are really eager to step on each other. The president of Shi Changshu and Wall Bank A City Branch is still old acquainted, but years of warfare in the mall have certainly left that bond long gone.

So, no wonder when he asks, he subconsciously behaves like this.

“Oh, from above, this is what the Empire State Building looks like.” The white stranger smiled softly, then lowered his head for a cup of tea, and said softly to Shi Chang Shu: “This is the first time I've seen the Empire State Building from this height. It's beautiful. ”

“If Huaxia Bank could have fixed it a little higher, perhaps the roof of the Empire State Building that Mr. Bai is now seeing is another feeling.” In his humble and courteous answer, Shi Changshu was more or less hostile to his opponent.

The stranger chuckled.

White stranger from the beginning into the office of Shi Chang Book was a light smile, never another expression, now suddenly laughed out the sound, somewhat surprised Shi Chang Book, he slightly paused, with caution: “Did I say something wrong to make Mr. Bai feel so funny? ”

The stranger shook his head and looked at Shi Long Book with a dark black eye: “I was just wondering if the governor of Wall Bank would say the same thing to me if I took all the money out and deposited it in Wall Bank? That's all, nothing else. ”

When a stranger says this, the wind is gentle and cloudy, like a joke.

However, it was just such a slightly written sentence that Shi Chang changed his face: “Mr. Bai...”

“Isn't that funny, Mr. Shi?” The white stranger did not match the changed face of the book, but continued to smile at the man, joking about the same question, making the book feel suffocated. He looked at White Stranger like that, he didn't know if White Stranger really had this idea, or if it was a fake, he only knew a little bit, if White Stranger took out the money, then he was finished, if White Stranger took out the money and deposited it in Wall Bank, then Huaxia Bank was finished.

This was absolutely forbidden by his father, and not by himself!

So, in any case, the demands made by the stranger must be met, even if there would be a little friction in working with the He Group, but it would be much better than the whole financial building collapsing like this, wouldn't it?

Shi Changshu sat there for a while and slowed down. He smiled softly: “I also feel that the advantages of these two people's loans are unclear. I would like to thank Mr. Bai for the hard work he put into the operation of Huaxia Bank. Of course, this is also Mr. Bai's responsibility for his property, and will continue to ask Mr. Bai to supervise our work in the future. ”

The stranger just sat on the couch and smiled as if he'd never left his face.

Turning his head, he looked at the dazzling sunlight outside, which shined on the glass above the Empire State Building, reflecting the rays of destruction, strangers, which was probably the rays of money and power.
