Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0565 The Accountant Ran Away with the Money
"Yaqing's project has been approved. How is your fundraising going?" Nan Yi asked when Ye Qi arrived at the Great Wall Hotel.
"Not very good. I visited all the big courtyards in Beijing a few days ago. Many people are interested, but not many actually pay money." Ye Qi took out a notebook and said, "Take a look. This is the list I made. The number after the name is the amount to be invested. Those with a horizontal line under the number have already paid, and those without a line under the number have not yet paid.
I didn’t mention the full debt or half debt equity you mentioned to them. I plan to visit all the big institutes first to see how much money I can raise. Next time, I will visit the investors one by one to ask about their intentions.”
Nan Yi took the notebook, flipped through it, and made a rough calculation. It was about 50,000 yuan, and about half of it had been paid.
"Very good, you take care of the arrangements. Do you have the money?"
"Yes."
"Then let's get the accounts sorted first before we talk about anything else."
"good."
Ye Qi put down the bag he was carrying and took out the money from it.
Nan Yi counted the money again and re-arranged the account. Only when the money matched did he return the two five-yuan coins that he picked out when counting the money to Ye Qi.
"They are too badly torn, not even half a piece. These two pieces can only be used as four dollars at most. You will bear the loss yourself. Take a piece of Great Unity."
"Oh, I really didn't notice it." Ye Qi picked up the broken coin and took a look at it, then took out a big unity note from his pocket and handed it to Nan Yi, "I don't know which grandson gave it to me. I counted the small amount, but I just counted the whole bunch, and didn't count them one by one."
"Then you should be more careful next time. If something goes wrong with the money in your hands, you will be the one to take the blame. If something goes wrong after you give it to me, then it is my responsibility. The financial system must be strictly enforced, there is no room for personal favors."
Nan Yi said as he wrote a receipt in triplicate, signed his name and stamped it with the official seal, tore off the second copy, and handed it to Ye Yi with a smile, "Put the receipt away and don't lose it. If you can't produce it during the next reconciliation, I may not recognize it."
Ye Qi picked up the receipt and kissed it with his mouth, "This thing is my honey now, you must hide it well."
As he spoke, Ye folded the receipt in half and put it carefully into his pocket.
"I will sign a letter of intent for investment with Haidian District in the next two days. Once the letter of intent is signed, it will be easier for you to raise funds. People who are well-informed should have heard about it."
"You really can't underestimate people. When I was in the compound of the Second Ministry of Machine Building a few days ago, someone knew about our Yaqing project. It was Jia Mingwei who invested 400 shares. It turned out that he didn't have enough money, otherwise he would have invested more. Jia Mingwei left a message, giving him a few days, and he would find a way to get more money." Ye said.
"It's a good thing for us that the investor Lu Ziye is here. Next, your task is to continue to raise funds, but you can only do it in the afternoon and evening. You have to come to work in the morning.
Because I was busy negotiating with Haidian District, looking for an architectural design company to survey and design drawings, and I was also busy applying for a loan from the bank.
Building a building requires cement, sand, bricks, wood, planks, steel bars, wires, stones, electrical wires, water pipes, fire-fighting equipment and many other things. Some of them require us to find ways to get them, while others will come to us and try to force them into our hands.
There will be a lot of people coming here in the future, I can't be here every day, you have to help share the pressure."
"From what I see, among what you said, only steel bars, iron wires, and wood need us to beg others for things, and the rest are things that others have to beg us for, right?"
Nan Yi leaned back in his chair, twirling the pen in his hand flexibly, "You should think more deeply about linking building materials and fundraising together."
Ye Yu thought about it for a moment and understood Nan Yi's intention. "I understand. Then you have to give me a price list. What is the most expensive item and what price we will pay for it, so I can have an idea."
"Well, I will list them for you in the next two days. I won't set a rigid price, and I will definitely leave enough profit margin. Whoever does it will make a profit.
However, product quality must be guaranteed. I will give you the quality parameters of each building material. You and the supplier must agree at the beginning that we will never accept the product if it does not meet the quality parameters we specify.
If we pay them enough, they won't be able to fool us with inferior products.
Weight, you must pay attention to this issue. If you use inferior materials when building a building, once the building collapses, I may not be in danger, but you will definitely not be able to escape, so don't joke with your life."
"Don't worry, don't worry. After all, I was born in a military compound. I won't do anything against my conscience." Ye Wei said, patting his chest.
"Yeah." Nan Yi nodded and said to Wu Shixun, "Shixun, save the money first and go to the first floor to find the school beauty. She will arrange someone to accompany you."
"good."
Wu Shiqi responded, sorted the money on Nan Yi's desk and put it into his bag, then took the passbook from Nan Yi and walked out with the money on his back.
"Nan Batian, it's tens of thousands of dollars, and you just let her take it?" Ye Qi said meaningfully as Wu Shiqi just left.
"It's okay, someone is following."
"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the account."
"If you can think of it, how could I not? The account is opened in the Cosmos Bank. Liu Zhen helped to make arrangements. If I want to withdraw more than 50,000 yuan, I have to go there in person. If it is less than 50,000 yuan or more than 10,000 yuan, they will confirm with me."
Why was it so common in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s for accountants to run away with money?
This is because it is so easy to run away with the money. The official seal, passbook and an accountant who is familiar to the bank teller are a trinity that can withdraw all the money in the company's account. Even with only the official seal and passbook, a large sum of money can be withdrawn from the account.
In addition, in this era, since banks do not have long-distance cash withdrawal services, many private businesses are not decent and are also intended to evade taxes, so business transactions are mainly conducted in cash, which makes it easier for accountants to embezzle money.
Not to mention large state-owned factories and mines, which may need tens or even hundreds of millions of cash to pay wages every month. Usually the wages cannot be paid in one day, and the money has to stay in the safe in the finance office overnight, which leads to endless possibilities.
No matter how awesome other positions in a company are, it’s all in vain if the accountant is unreliable. No matter how much they earn, it’s hard to tell who the money is earned for.
Therefore, smart bosses will make the accountant their own person, or directly assign the person they have “slept with” to the accounting position. This gives rise to a new story - the driver runs away with the boss's lover and the money.
"I told you, you can't have missed this. I saw a piece of news in the newspaper a few days ago, saying that Zhangyuan in Hebei Province was renovating a house. On a construction site, the construction team was clearing out an old residential site . A worker was driving an excavator and suddenly encountered a strange piece of cement.
They said that the cement was very thick and the excavator couldn't dig it out at all, so someone had to come and break the cement into pieces.
The foreman didn't think much about it and called a few construction workers over with tools. They finally managed to break the thick cement, but everyone just stood there frozen. Guess what happened?"
"Do we still need to guess?" Nan Yi said unhappily, "The masters must have seen that there are several weights wrapped in the cement, and they are hollow weights."
"Go, go, go, go, the workers froze as soon as they dug up the cement. After a while, one of them screamed in shock: 'Someone's dead! Someone's dead!'
It is very common to find human bones at construction sites. For example, when our capital city was digging air-raid shelters a few years ago, many human bones must have been dug up one day.
But there seems something wrong with these human bones wrapped in cement. When Chinese people bury the body, they usually put it in a coffin. Even the poorest people will nail a few wooden boards. Even in a mass grave, don't they have to cover it with straw mats?
Hearing that someone had died, the other workers who were working rushed over. A foreman separated the crowd and checked the body wrapped in cement.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the body was very intact, with the clothes on the body preserved and even the shoes and socks intact. The foreman thought, oh, this might be a murder, so he quickly asked someone to call the police.
The police arrived at the scene quickly and the forensic doctor conducted an examination of the body.
This is a body that has been dead for twenty years. The deceased was a middle-aged woman in her thirties. The cause of death was a blunt object blow to the head.
When they heard that it happened twenty years ago, several veteran policemen immediately knew that there were only a few people who disappeared twenty years ago.
But before the police could figure out who it was, a woman watching nearby shouted, "Could this be Li Yang? I remember her from when she disappeared 20 years ago."
After hearing the woman's shouting, the people watching nearby began to talk about it.
"Well, it's possible. The age and time of disappearance are right!"
"Oh my god, who on earth would have the heart to kill Li Yang?"
"Who is Li Yang? Why do you all say it's her?"
Nan Batian, who do you think this Li Yang is?" As he spoke, Ye Qi kept the secret again.
"An accountant from the Hebei Province Mining Machinery Factory. Stop showing off what you read in the newspaper. I've probably seen most of what you've seen. I don't have . Come with me to play table tennis. After the game, let's go to the bathhouse and give it a good rub. I'll introduce you to someone tonight."
"Okay, let's go."
