Chapter 91: Dog Eyes Look Down on People
The driver found it very interesting to hear Lu Jiaxin say that she wanted to be a parasite, and asked her with a smile: "Girl, how much do you think you can earn to spend for a lifetime?"
Lu Jiaxin calculated in her mind and thought that one million should be enough. She could use the money to buy houses and land, and then become a landlady when the house was demolished. She couldn't tell the driver these words, so she just said 100,000.
The driver smiled and said: "Now things are rising every year. Ten thousand yuan households will probably not be rare in two years, and 100,000 yuan won't last long."
Lu Jiaxin thought the driver was quite knowledgeable, and she deliberately sighed and said: "This is just my wish, a good wish, I still have to study when I go home!"
The driver nodded and said: "You still have to study, and only by studying can you have a future."
Lu Jiaxin asked the driver to take them to Bank of China. Among the existing banks, Bank of China, as a bank specializing in foreign exchange and foreign trade, uniformly manages the country's foreign exchange and carries out international trade settlement and other businesses.
The bank teller looked at Gu Wenfeng's patched clothes, and when he heard him say he wanted to open an account, he didn't even look at his household registration booklet or work permit and said directly: "You don't meet the requirements, you can't open an account."
Lu Jiaxin was very angry at his attitude and asked: "What are the conditions for opening an account?"
The teller said slowly: "Only local people can open an account."
From the accents of these two people, it can be known that they are not locals, so they just made up an excuse.
What local people can open an account? It's clearly a deliberate embarrassment. Lu Jiaxin was very angry: "What kind of service attitude is this? I want to complain to you."
The teller glanced at her and said: "Complain? Go ahead."
Gu Wenfeng was not angry, he had seen a lot of such things: "It's okay, this one doesn't work, let's go to another one, we have money and we are afraid of having no place to deposit it."
The male teller laughed contemptuously.
Lu Jiaxin looked at him and spat out two words: "Garbage."
The male teller stood up angrily and said: "What did you say?"
Lu Jiaxin wanted to curse, but was pulled out of the bank by Gu Wenfeng. When he got outside, he said, "It's not worth getting angry with these people. Let's go and change banks."
Many people rely on their iron rice bowls, so their service attitude is extremely poor. He has seen a lot of this in his travels over the years. He was very angry at first, but later he let it go.
Lu Jiaxin didn't say anything, and followed him with a dark face to another bank that could handle foreign exchange business. The staff of the new bank had a very good service attitude. They took Gu Wenfeng's household registration and work permit, and processed it after checking that there was no problem.
The staff handed the passbook to Gu Wenfeng and asked him to keep it with a smile.
Gu Wenfeng did not take the passbook, but lowered his head to pick up the luggage bag at his feet and put it on the counter, saying: "We are here to deposit money."
The staff was a little surprised, but still said with a smile: "Excuse me, how much money are you depositing?"
Gu Wenfeng unzipped the bag and revealed the green coins in the bag: "70,000 green coins, please count some."
The staff was stunned for three seconds, and when he came to his senses, he said excitedly: "Comrade, comrade, zip up your bag and come with me to talk."
This is a bank, Gu Wenfeng and Lu Jiaxin are not afraid, and the two followed into a small private room.
The staff poured a cup of hot water for each of them: "Comrades, please wait a moment, our supervisor will be here soon."
Lu Jiaxin was a little puzzled, why did the supervisor have to come to deposit money? Could it be that he suspected that their money came from an illegal source? But looking at the staff's smiling face, she felt that it should not be the case.
Soon, a thin middle-aged man came over. After the introduction of the staff, Lu Jiaxin knew that the other party's surname was He, and he was the director of the bank's business department.
Director He warmly invited the two to sit down: "Comrade Gu, I wonder what you are going to do with this money?"
Gu Wenfeng couldn't help but look at Lu Jiaxin. He only knew that Lu Jiaxin wanted to do business, but he didn't know what business she was going to do.
Director He looked a little surprised at his expression. He didn't expect that the one who made the decision was the little girl. He really made a mistake just now.
Lu Jiaxin said: "I want to make a batch of leather shoes. This money will be used to buy materials and pay processing fees."
The original plan was to make a wave of money by making leather shoes, and then open a garment factory in Pengcheng. But her current physical condition does not allow her to do high-intensity work at all, so she only plans to make a wave of leather shoes to sell, and the subsequent plans can only be put on hold until her body recovers.
Manager He said enthusiastically: "I have a customer here, he opened a leather factory. If you want to buy leather and cotton wool, I can introduce it to you."
There is no free lunch in the world, Lu Jiaxin asked: "What are the conditions?"
Manager He saw that Gu Wenfeng didn't say anything, and he weighed it in his mind and decided not to beat around the bush: "As long as you exchange this money into Chinese currency in our bank. Little girl, I won't hide it from you, we have a foreign exchange task. You help me complete the task, and I will help you get the best price from the customer."
Lu Jiaxin knew that the country was short of foreign exchange now, but knowing is one thing, and feeling it personally is another: "We don't need money for the time being, let's exchange it when we need it!"
The people in the bank are so eager, so it must be more useful outside. And the exchange rate fluctuates, maybe you can get more money by exchanging it later.
Manager He was not disappointed, anyway, the money was in their bank and it wouldn't run away: "Little girl is open-minded. You see when you have time. I will contact him later and take you to his factory tomorrow."
Lu Jiaxin said: "Manager He, you still have to go to work, how can we delay your work? So, you give us an address, we will go there first, and then have dinner together."
If the manufacturer he recommended is reliable, they will have dinner together, and let Manager He help get a preferential price; if it does not meet her requirements, he does not want to waste this favor.
How could Manager He not hear the meaning of her words? He did not know whose child she was, but she was so sophisticated at such a young age: "Of course no problem, I will decide the restaurant when the time comes."
During the process, Manager He asked them where they got so many green coins. When he found out that they earned it from Nie Zhan, he could not help but be jealous.
Today's green currency exchange rate is 1:2.1, and Lu Jiaxin's 70,000 green coins can be exchanged for 147,000 yuan.
When Lu Jiaxin saw the numbers on the passbook, the start-up capital was finally there, which was not easy. After receiving the passbook, she smiled and said, "Manager He, we went to the Bank of China first, but their waiter looked down on us. Otherwise, I would have deposited the money there."
She said this deliberately to let the leaders of the Bank of China know that this teller made them lose a sum of foreign exchange deposits.
Manager He secretly thought that it was thanks to this waiter, otherwise her target for this month would be in jeopardy again: "Comrade Gu, where do you live? I'll have someone take you there."
Gu Wenfeng politely refused.
