By this time, Li Cheng had already drunk four glasses of wine, which meant he had consumed more than a pound of liquor.
Mr. Li was also secretly amazed at how Li Cheng drank. He had seen many people with high alcohol tolerance, but Li Cheng was not only a high drinker, but also accepted all the drinks without any sign of fear.
In fact, Li Cheng was also very panicked. If he continued drinking like this, he would probably be the one who got embarrassed.
Fortunately, his fearless attitude towards drinking intimidated Mr. Li, and Mr. Li no longer dared to drink with him.
After counting, except for Meng Jianghong, the least drunk among these people was eight taels of white wine.
Mr. Li pointed at the food on the table and said again, "Eat, eat, eat."
This time, he really meant to eat food. However, these people's stomachs were full of wine, so how could they have the appetite to eat?
It's a sin! Not eating good food, but having to drink a bellyful of alcohol, it's really torture.
On the way back, the road was bumpy and everyone vomited all the way. Except for Li Cheng, Zhang Dahe and Meng Jianghong vomited and cursed all the way.
When they arrived in the city, it was almost midnight. The three of them went home and agreed to talk again when they got to work early the next morning.
The next day, the three of them met in Meng Jianghong's office, all still feeling a bit tired. But there was no other way, as the matter was urgent, the three of them sat down for a small meeting.
Meng Jianghong said, "I drank all that wine last night for nothing. I didn't get anything out of you."
The implication was that he was blaming Li Cheng. Zhang Dahe had also drunk quite a bit last night. Li Cheng was concentrating on dealing with Mr. Li, and he himself was dealing with Mr. Li's three men, and he was also forced to drink quite a bit.
After hearing what Meng Jianghong said, he was a little dissatisfied and said, "It doesn't necessarily mean the drink is in vain. As long as they don't continue to withdraw money today, our suffering yesterday will not be in vain."
Meng Jianghong was about to argue when Li Cheng suddenly waved his hand to signal them not to argue, and then listened carefully to the movement in the corridor.
A chaotic noise echoed from the corridor, along with Lao Yue's curses. "Are you going to let us live? You just came back and are going out again. What went wrong?..."
Li Cheng glanced at Zhang Dahe, who then stood up, opened the door, and left. Li Cheng said to Meng Jianghong, "I think you're right. We suffered for nothing last night."
After a while, Zhang Dahe came back and said to them, "It's over. The engineering company will continue to withdraw money..."
This time, not only Meng Jianghong went crazy, but even Li Cheng got angry.
"Let's go down and take a look."
After saying that, Li Cheng walked out first.
In the business hall, the person coming to withdraw money today was the finance director who had been drinking with him yesterday. When he saw Li Cheng and the others approaching him, he nodded politely to them.
Li Cheng was not so polite. He walked over and asked directly, "You still have more than 10 million in your account. Are you planning to withdraw it all?"
The supervisor said nothing, and silence was a sign of affirmation.
Li Cheng added, "How about this, don't mention cash. It makes us very busy and it's not safe. Just transfer the money. That way, everyone can save some effort."
The man looked at Li Cheng, then silently opened the bag he was carrying and took out a checkbook...
When Meng Jianghong saw this, she quickly pushed Li Cheng aside and kept saying good things to that man.
If this person really transferred all the money in the account, President Hou would probably go crazy immediately.
Meng Jianghong thought to herself that Li Cheng was young after all! He had never worked in the deposit department before, so he didn't know that these big dogs were just like a bunch of uncles in the deposit department.
After being persuaded by Meng Jianghong with some kind words, the man looked at Li Cheng with a smug look on his face, and then put the checkbook back into his bag.
Li Cheng was so angry that if Zhang Dahe hadn't held him back, he would have kicked him twice.
Li Cheng has already determined why the people from the highway engineering company did this. They obviously went to another bank to open an account.
But they often ate and took things and money from the branch. So, for the sake of face, they took the money away bit by bit in a rat-moving manner and deposited it into the new bank.
However, as the end of the year approached, the bank also wanted to improve its performance, so it asked the engineering company to speed up the transfer of funds.
The engineering company still wanted to save face and refused to transfer the funds by check, so it transferred the funds in cash.
But this meant that Li Cheng and his branch had a lot more work to do for no reason.
In Li Cheng's opinion, if you don't want to cooperate, just say it directly. Doing so is like putting the toad's skin on your face, which is both shameless and disgusting.
After the man that Meng Jianghong had persuaded was no longer angry, he quickly took Li Cheng away.
After returning to the office, Meng Jianghong said, "Li Cheng, are you crazy? How dare you offend them? We have always respected these tycoons like grandfathers!"
Li Cheng was still furious and pointed outside, saying, "They don't want to be our grandfathers anymore. You don't have to respect them anymore."
"Hey, what do you mean? Li Cheng, please explain clearly."
Li Cheng pointed to the south and said, "When we were drinking yesterday, Mr. Li clearly promised me that I wouldn't withdraw money before the end of the year, but this morning his men came to withdraw money again.
Also, I asked the people on the construction site yesterday, and whether it's wages or equipment rental fees, they're generally not paid until after the end of the month. So, I infer that they don't want to stay in our branch anymore."
Meng Jianghong thought for a moment, then said, "Did someone steal our peaches?"
Li Cheng nodded and said, "That's probably the case."
Stealing peaches means that your customers have been stolen by others.
Things like having peaches stolen have happened many times before. Therefore, the opening of bank accounts by important and large customers at branches sometimes needs to be kept confidential.
However, the degree of confidentiality is very limited, and if other banks want to know, it would be very easy.
However, large clients such as highway engineering companies are very special. Since they are not permanent institutions in the city, they all open a temporary account in a bank near their location.
They only opened a basic settlement account at the branch, and the account was not open for long. Therefore, this wealthy big account would not usually attract the attention of other banks.
But this tycoon's account was still robbed, which means that someone leaked the basic information of this tycoon to other banks.
Who leaked it? Li Cheng thought it was Director Jiang.
Otherwise, how can we explain the fact that this wealthy man started withdrawing money like crazy right after he retired?
Meng Jianghong also thought of Director Jiang. But she couldn't believe that Director Jiang had done this. Although Director Jiang was transferred from another place, he was quite diligent in his work and had never been seen to do anything to offend the branch.
"No way? He won't retire and then ruin our business, right?" Meng Jianghong muttered to herself.
