Rebirth of financial migrant workers

Chapter 496 Where did the 30 billion go?
"By the way, has the Hedong Chamber of Commerce learned any useful information during these years of lurking around Wang Quan?"

Wang Chunliang changed the subject very tactfully, drawing the father and son's attention back to the Hedong Chamber of Commerce.

Ning Minghao couldn't help but frowned when he heard this:

"Wang Quan is a very secretive person. The only useful information we have obtained from him through the Hedong Chamber of Commerce in the past few years is that Huajin Group is trying to control Mule Bank.
In order to prevent the Mule Bank from completely escaping our control, the airborne boss also made some preparations.
In fact, the reason I didn't let you contact the Hedong Chamber of Commerce earlier was mostly because I was playing a role.

But later on, I also accepted your identity as my future son-in-law, so I naturally wouldn't let you get involved in this mess.

Including the fact that you actually hold a majority stake in Manjue Capital, I didn't dare tell the parachuted boss.

But who would have thought that you, a stinky boy, would sneakily take the initiative to fall into it.
More than a month ago, you actually took the initiative to find Lao Sun and others and told them all your plan to acquire shares in Mule Bank.

As the boss's accomplices, it is naturally impossible for them to transfer the shares to you, so you returned empty-handed that time.

However, when this news reached the boss's ears, he naturally guessed the relationship between Manjue Capital and you.

This was good news for him, as it meant he had one more chess piece to fight against Boss Jiang, thus avoiding exposing all his cards first.

But after this, it will be much more difficult for me to protect and hide you."

Wang Chunliang narrowed his eyes. No wonder he always felt that there was a force pushing him forward during the process of acquiring the shares of Mule Bank. It must be the will of this parachuted boss.

Before I knew it, I had accidentally stepped into the high-end game.

Wang Chunliang raised his glass and toasted to his future father-in-law:

"It's all my fault. I didn't tell you the truth at the beginning, causing you to worry about my safety."

Ning Minghao raised his eyebrows, obviously not used to Wang Chunliang's sudden compliment.

After finishing his drink, he waved his hand:
"Fortunately, I can still protect you for now. Just be more careful in the future. And don't worry about the shares you bought. The province should find a way to buy them back in the future. The price will be enough for you to eat your fill."

Wang Chunliang is not very worried about the disposal of Mule Bank's shares.

In the last few years of his previous life, both the share price of Hong Kong stocks and the price offered by Ji Dong when he re-acquired the property were much higher than what he had paid.

Therefore, this move is a sure win for him and Manjue Capital.

After finishing a glass of white wine, Wang Chunliang asked tentatively:
"Uncle Ning, now that we've come to this point, why don't you share with me the results of your investigations over the years so that I can avoid mistakes in the future."

Ning Minghao put down his wine glass upon hearing this, sat up straight, and said in a low voice:

“First of all, the 30 billion yuan of bad loans that were written off back then were probably related to Boss Jiang.

I suspect that it was he who instructed his subordinates to organize and collude with branch presidents of various branches of Hedong City Credit Union to commit loan fraud and embezzle state-owned assets.

However, it is very difficult to investigate this matter now. Not to mention that the paper records from that year have basically disappeared, and the presidents of several branches involved, except for Lao Ruan, have all passed away."

"Fuck, were all those branch presidents silenced?"

Ning Shuo was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the white wine in his glass spilled all over the table. Ning Minghao's mouth twitched, and he quickly corrected:

"Don't talk nonsense. This isn't a TV show. How could it be possible that those branch presidents were already quite old when they were at the Hedong City Credit Union, and then fell ill or had an accident after retirement? So coincidentally, most of them passed away in the past few years."

Wang Chunliang suddenly asked:
"What is the full name of the old Ruan you mentioned just now?"

"Ruan Shaoyan."

I seem to have seen this name before, but I can't remember where exactly.

'Ruan' is not a common surname, and the possibility of having the same name as Ruan is not high.

Wang Chunliang closed his eyes tightly, and tried frantically to awaken the fragments of memory buried deep in his mind, but after a long time, he still failed.

During this period, Ning Minghao and his son held their breath, fearing that they would interrupt Wang Chunliang's memories.

After the latter opened his eyes, Ning Minghao asked with some expectation and some doubt:
"Why, have you seen this man or heard of his name? That's impossible. Old Ruan disappeared before the establishment of Mule Bank. And his name can't appear in any records of the bank."

Wang Chunliang shook his head:
"Maybe I remembered it wrongly. This President Ruan disappeared? Could it be that a lot of the more than 30 billion yuan in loans are related to him?"

"I'm afraid you don't know much about the predecessor of Sanlimiao Branch. More than ten years ago, when it was still Hedong City Credit Union, there were not many large state-owned banks around Sanlimiao Branch. At that time, the branch was very profitable and was one of the most famous ones in the credit union. The president of the branch was this Ruan Shaoyan. Later, I learned that Hedong accounted for 30% of the more than billion yuan in written-off loans, and Sanlimiao Branch accounted for more than % of Hedong."

In the early 2000s, there was no strict real-name system for living and traveling like in later generations, and there was no -hour security network, so it was common for people to change their identities and live in seclusion after committing crimes.

"Pity."

"Yeah, what a pity. Finding him will at least reveal the truth about the loan fraud."

Ning Minghao drank the white wine in the glass in one gulp and let out a long sigh.

"In the early 2000s, the economy of Shuanghe Province was underdeveloped. Wouldn't such a large amount of capital flow have left any clues?"

"This is also what confuses me. The boss once sent someone to secretly check the flow of funds in all banks during that period, but did not find the whereabouts of the money. Although the economy has developed rapidly in recent years and large amounts of money have gradually increased, supervision has also been strengthened. It is not easy to launder so much money."

“Could it have already flowed abroad?”

Ning Minghao denied his son's inference without even thinking:
"How is that possible? my country has stricter supervision over the outflow of funds. Except for large companies that mainly engage in import and export trade or have more overseas business, there is almost no foreign exchange quota."

A light bulb went off in Wang Chunliang's mind, and he suddenly remembered the legend in 2014 in his previous life that Wanhe Real Estate was rectified for transferring assets overseas.

Wait, since Wang Quan came to power, he has promoted a number of reforms, including layoffs, reducing counter business, and vigorously developing the bank's international business.

Although all of this can be explained by the pursuit of pure profits by foreign capital, which has just become the largest shareholder,
But is there a possibility that most of these are just a cover-up?

The real purpose of Wang Quan and his colleagues is to fish in troubled waters in international business, and their core purpose is to prepare for the disposal of this money.

Of course, let's make a bolder guess. Could it be that Wang Quan, Ji Dong and Boss Jiang behind them want to transform Mule Bank into a tool that can provide services for others to transfer assets overseas? !
