Siheyuan (courtyard house): My name is Shazhu!

The local residents were pleased when He Yuzhu said these words, as it essentially set a bottom line for the robbers: as long as they didn't shoot them without cause, they would be fine.

You can do whatever you want as long as it doesn't affect the interests of Dongda Group. We won't get involved in these matters; it's not our responsibility.

The happiest people were the groups with ideas. Regardless of who they were, everyone knew that robbing a bank armored truck was the best and fastest way to get cash.

I used to think it was hard to rob, but now I think it's something I can do, as easy as robbing a jewelry store.

As for the interests of the Dongda Group, we have never touched them. It was too terrifying that they could destroy Kowloon Walled City in less than three hours. If we were to fight them, we wouldn't be able to even do it in eight hours.

I'm guessing we'll lose!

We acknowledge that their security personnel are indeed capable in combat. As for their intelligence capabilities, a large company that owns a quarter of the city's population cannot be anything less than strong.

Avoid Dongda Group and rob other banks' armored trucks!

So the day after He Yuzhu stated his position, the entire city of Hong Kong fell silent once again. This time, the board of directors of the victimized Niufeng Bank and Yuntong Bank were so big they could put eggs in their mouths.

All four groups of robbers were robbed as their armored truck returned to headquarters after collecting the money.

The key point is that this time they used RPG rocket launchers directly. If the escorts did not surrender, they would be hit with one. Ordinary vehicles are nothing in front of them.

One of the escorts hesitated for a moment, then was shot and killed, but the cash was still stolen, and passersby had another chance to pick up the money.

"An RPG has appeared! We are about to face war!"

Spring has arrived for the local newspapers in Hong Kong! Big news, absolutely huge news: instead of submachine guns, they've switched to RPGs—this is definitely war!

Let alone ordinary escorts, even our Flying Tigers would probably be overwhelmed; the enemy's weapons are terrifying.

Wait, what's this? 155mm howitzers have appeared before, RPGs are just a small fry.

The robbers were quite interesting; they brandished an RPG and shouted at the armored truck to make them get out, saying, "Surrender and we won't kill you!"

They also told passersby to lie down to avoid being accidentally injured, and that they would come to pick up the money later. The passersby were very obedient, and the robbers kept their word, throwing money down as they said they would. The two sides cooperated very well.

"We are all one family!"

"They're not robbing our family's money. I have no obligation to risk my life. It's much better to just wait and pick up the money."

The general mentality of people in the port city!

The board members of Niu Feng Bank were dumbfounded. They had known about the Big Circle Gang for a while, but they hadn't expected them to be this ruthless. They even used an RPG! What were they going to do?

Using the military to transport cash in tanks? Don't be ridiculous. RPGs are designed to take down tanks. Besides, how much additional cost would it incur for them to send troops to escort the shipments every day?

Stop transporting cash every day. Once a certain amount is reached, stop transporting cash at the designated times and avoid these lunatics.

Their plan was good, but now their worst fear has finally come true.

Niu Feng Bank suffered a large amount of cash robbery, and many external loans are unrecoverable, resulting in huge losses, and even depositors' money is not being able to get back!

The next morning, several newspapers published the news at the same time.

That seems to be the case. Six armored trucks belonging to Niu Feng Bank have already been robbed, and with the stock market in such a bad state, how much cash do they have left to repay their debts?

My savings!

I feel so bad for you!

We want our savings back; that's our hard-earned money!

People began to gather at the headquarters of Niufeng Bank, Niuzha Bank, other foreign banks, and some smaller banks, wanting to withdraw their money and get back their hard-earned cash!

"Mr. He, I never expected that Hong Kong City Bank would be reshuffled this time. This may be a good thing. There are too many small banks, which is not good for business."

Two years ago, during the stock market boom, they were all operating illegally, and many banks couldn't repay their deposits. Banking operations should be regulated.

"I didn't expect to involve small banks as well. A short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one. This isn't necessarily a bad thing for the port city's economy. It's better for the defaults to happen now than later."

"Kuang Biao secretly sent out some intelligence. If the Big Circle Gang is too greedy, they will be the ones who suffer."

"You guys need to plan whether it's possible for us to directly storm the underground vaults of Niufeng Bank and Niuzha Bank. Let's not make it too far-fetched."

"Hitting their underground vault wouldn't be too far-fetched if you took action. Using explosives and your abilities, opening the vault door wouldn't be difficult; we've calculated it."

Kuang Biao seemed unusually excited; he had never done this before.

"It would be best if someone else used explosives, not us, because the money in the underground vault is too much to carry away."

It depends on whether some people come to withdraw money. Niufeng Bank should be able to withdraw about 8 billion in cash. They still have 3.4 billion in cash, which is not enough!

It mainly depends on whether the loan is made or whether the board members contribute money!

"Mr. He, there is no need to attack the underground vault. Keep an eye on their interbank lending. Their board of directors can save themselves, so we don't need to worry about them. Just cut off their lending channels."

This incident will set both banks back ten years, and they'll also lose their currency issuance rights!

"How about playing it on a smaller scale? If the power to issue currency is handed over to the media, they probably won't relinquish it; that's a crucial part of their wealth plundering strategy."

"They'll be forced to hand over even a single, dead fish issuing currency; they don't deserve it."

"If you have the money, you're responsible!"

"Kuang Biao, target all foreign banks. We'll add fuel to the fire. I have promotional dates for three Japanese banks here; don't miss these next few days."

I like dealing with them!

Adding fuel to the fire, while the police were struggling to maintain order, three Japanese banks less than two kilometers away were simultaneously involved in incidents.

Their armored truck was robbed at the headquarters gate. What good were dozens of security guards? They were all obedient when submachine guns and RPGs were pointed at them. They just drove off, making the operation much faster.

The situation is getting bigger and bigger, and countless people at the top are getting restless, demanding that things return to normal as soon as possible, otherwise the port city will really be doomed.

Meanwhile, newspapers were fanning the flames, vigorously criticizing Niu Feng and Niu Zha banks, from their profitability and ability to pay deposits to whether they had already gone bankrupt.

Finally, some newspapers directly questioned their ability to issue currency, demanding that they hand it over to Dongda Bank, which they argued was the safest and most reliable bank in the port city.

Your two banks should pay the depositors' deposits first.

This time, they really hit a nerve. They had seen the miserable state of the two banks and believed that these two banks were not fit to be issuing banks.

They actually set a limit on depositors' withdrawals, HK$50 million a day. Aren't you just making it clear that your bank has no money?

We're just limiting withdrawals. Do whatever you want with us. What are these people on the board doing?

What they didn't know was that these board members wanted to leave, superstitiously believing that this place was too crooked and clashed with Niu Zha Bank. They thought, "If we have money, let's go somewhere else!"

Seeing the cow's terrible state, the owner gave up. Even the owner doesn't care, so why are we in such a hurry?

It seems unlikely that the right to issue currency will be retained. It's best to follow public opinion and give it to Dongda Bank, as they are indeed very powerful.

As for Niufeng Bank, there is still a possibility of saving it. They just have a lot of loans, not all of them have savings. If this hole is plugged, the money will still be there.

Instead of being worried about Niufeng Bank, Niufeng Bank was lending money, and then the bank that agreed to lend money, Japan Bank, was robbed and changed its mind.

The 500 million yuan in cash borrowed by Little Eagle Bank was robbed again, and no one recognized the collateral checks.

Niu Feng Bank was dumbfounded. These people were now refusing to accept even the checks guaranteed by Xiao Yingzi Bank and only wanted to withdraw cash.

The only option is to have them withdraw cash from Little Eagle Bank!
