I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 35 The last straw that broke Sun Jiaming's back

I have an appointment to play ball with Xia He tonight.

Ever since they played badminton at Yikanyuan Sports and Leisure Center last time, the two of them have developed a new relationship - badminton partners.

But she didn't fight often, only once a week at most, and tonight was only the third time. After dinner, Xia He drove her BMW to pick up Fang Qingye at the gate of the teachers' community.

The two were still at Yikanyuan. The environment here was good, and there were fewer people than at the stadium, so it was relatively quiet. Of course, they didn't meet Liu Dong and his leader this time.

After nearly two hours of running and smashing, both were sweating profusely. They showered and changed their clothes. Fang Qingye was still wearing a T-shirt and jeans, while Xia He wore a beige floral dress. Her long hair, which had been tied up during the game, was now draped over her shoulders, giving her a girl-next-door vibe.

The two of them sat in the leisure area on the first floor to rest and have a drink.

This time Fang Qingye didn't drink milk tea but ordered a can of beer. Xia He also ordered a bottle of drink. The two of them drank while resting.

Xia He lowered her head to drink her drink, and seemed to be thinking about something when she suddenly looked up at Fang Qingye and said, "Xiao Fang, isn't that strange?"

"What's weird?"

"The cause of Sun Jiaming's death."

"What you said about him jumping off the building because of huge losses in stock trading is not accurate?" Fang Qingye asked back.

"It's not inaccurate. I don't think it's that simple. I've learned about Sun Jiaming's family situation. A 90 yuan loss isn't enough to drive him to despair."

Xia He expressed her doubts.

"These past few days, I've been thinking about this. I always feel like something's wrong, but I can't figure out what it is. I can't tell anyone, so..."

At the end of her speech, Xia He sighed softly.

Fang Qingye put down the beer can in his hand and said with a smile:

"Senior, I also feel that something is amiss. There must be a deeper reason behind Sun Jiaming's suicide by jumping off the building."

"You mean it's not because of the stock market?"

"No, it is definitely related to stock trading, but it is not as simple as it seems. There must be something we haven't figured out, and this incident is the last straw that broke the camel's back for Sun Jiaming." Fang Qingye said.

"What could it be?" Xia He held her cheeks with both hands and fell into deep thought.

Seeing Xia He like this, Fang Qingye smiled and said, "Alright, senior sister, don't think about it. Sun Jiaming's huge stock market losses and jumping off the building have nothing to do with the company. Isn't this a good conclusion?!"

"Well, you're right! I sometimes like to let my imagination run wild." Xia He pursed her lips and smiled, and continued, "I plan to go to Sun Jiaming's home with President Su tomorrow to meet his wife and give her 20,000 yuan in condolence money on behalf of the company."

Fang Qingye knew in his heart that this meant that the matter was completely over for the bank.

But the development of the matter was beyond their expectations.

The next afternoon, Fang Qingye was reading "Benchmark Analysis Methods in Mathematical Finance" in the office and started to build a mathematical model. Suddenly, the QQ on his mobile phone made a "beep" sound. Fang Qingye looked and saw a water lily QQ avatar flashing.

Message from Xia He.

He opened it and saw a chat message.

"Xiao Fang, you're amazing. I don't know how to thank you. You've helped me so much again."

He was stunned and sent a message: "Senior sister, what do you mean? Why don't I understand?"

The other party did not answer immediately.

Fang Qingye felt puzzled. He seemed to have done nothing recently. But he didn't ask any more questions.

Maybe Xia He suddenly had something to do and couldn't reply to the message, after all, it was working hours now.

Xia He was indeed busy.

She had just sent a QQ message when Vice President Su Ming knocked on the door and came in: "President Xia, we've checked and found out that it was indeed Sun Jiaming who embezzled 40 yuan of his friend Zhang Guofu's funds to purchase funds."

Just yesterday afternoon, Xia He suddenly received some bad news. A man named Zhang Guofu came to the business hall downstairs to pick up his 40 yuan fund product in the bank, but was told by the staff that he had not bought this fund at all!
40 yuan of funds disappeared again!

After Xia He received the news, she immediately asked the director of the business office to block the news, and personally invited Zhang Guofu to the VIP room to inquire about the process in detail. Only then did she know that Zhang Guofu had purchased this fund through Sun Jiaming.

It turns out Zhang Guofu and Sun Jiaming were middle school classmates, and Zhang Guofu had a strong trust in Sun Jiaming's character. In the past, when Sun Jiaming needed to secure deposits, he often turned to Zhang Guofu for help. As a small business owner with some spare cash, Zhang Guofu was happy to oblige—it didn't matter which bank he deposited it in. Why not help a classmate?

A year ago, Sun Jiaming found Zhang Guofu again to introduce him to a fund. At that time, the market situation was good and the fund had a good growth trend, so Sun Guofu decided to buy 40.

Sun Jiaming filled out the fund purchase contract and brought it home for Zhang Guofu to sign. When transferring the funds, Zhang Guofu went to the business hall of the Dongxing Nanxin Branch. He signed when Sun Jiaming asked him to sign, and entered the password when he asked him to enter the password. Finally, Sun Jiaming gave him a form and said it was done. Zhang Guofu took the form and left.

Little did he know that in order to make more money in the stock market, Sun Jiaming needed a large amount of capital and had already set his sights on the 40.

In fact, Sun Jiaming had made some adjustments when asking Zhang Guofu to enter the password. He made Zhang Guofu enter the withdrawal password twice, and finally Zhang Guofu's 40 was transferred to Sun Jiaming's account.

According to Sun Jiaming's wishful thinking, he would embezzle the money temporarily for a while, and then help his old friend to buy secretly when he made some money. However, he did not expect that the market would take a sharp turn for the worse and he suffered heavy losses. Not only did he not make any profit, but he also lost his principal.

During this period, Zhang Guofu and Sun Jiaming were drinking together and mentioned the purchase of funds. He said that the stock market has been sluggish recently and he wanted to redeem the 40 funds.

Sun Jiaming panicked when he heard this. He would be sentenced for misappropriating depositors' funds!
Thinking about the sad things he had experienced in stock trading in recent years, he felt that his future was hopeless and began to have thoughts of suicide.

Su Ming had just completed various investigations and learned the latest situation, so he hurried back to report to Xia He.

Xia He asked after hearing this:

"Just these 40, nothing else?"

"There is really nothing else. We, the People's Bank of China, and the public security comrades have retrieved all the transaction records of Sun Jiaming's accounts opened in major banks in the past three years. We found that only the 40 yuan in our branch was illegally misappropriated funds of others, and the rest were normal." Su Ming replied.

"That's good. I'm going to report to the municipal branch. Our Nanxin branch has had a really eventful year." Xia He said with a wry smile at the end.

"Yes, but fortunately, we recently provided employee loyalty insurance for employees in important positions. This 40 yuan hole can be filled, otherwise the problem would be even more serious." Su Ming said with a smile.

Xia He understood what he meant. Wasn't the handling of the case by the two presidents of the Pingdong branch a lesson for us?"

I really have to thank that guy.

Fang Qingye's lazy look appeared in Xia He's mind.

Compared with the other two interns assigned to the same class, this guy was not very active at work and was even lazy - this was the feedback from her subordinates.

However, it can always play a key role at important nodes.

Well, this junior is very good.

"President Xia." Su Ming's words interrupted Xia He's wandering thoughts: "Who should write this report?"

"Leave it to Fang Qingye. You go find Chief Yu from the Finance Department and discuss the matter with Pacific Company regarding the claim." Xia He said.

After Su Ming left, Xia He picked up the landline on the desk and wanted to call Fang Qingye.
