The old lady smiled slightly and said, "Oh, Cheng Yu can't get through on the phone?"
At this moment, Ning Kezhu finally remembered, she said: "You are Cheng Yu's landlord, right? A professor at Wu University, your son is also one of the partners of Cheng Yu's company?"
After hearing this, the old lady was almost certain of Ning Kezhu's identity. She smiled and said, "Yes, Cheng Yu has been leaving early and coming home late recently. He seems to be very busy. Why don't you come to my house and sit for a while first?
, or you can go back first, and when he comes back I will ask him and ask him to call you back?"
Ning Kezhu said: "Is it convenient to come to your home?"
The old lady stepped aside with a smile and said, "It's no inconvenience. I'm just an old lady. My wife has been gone for a long time. You're here, just in time to chat with me."
Ning Kezhu then said: "Then I won't bother you."
After entering the door, Ning Kezhu remembered the old lady's question just now and hurriedly replied: "I don't know what's wrong with this kid Cheng Yu. His phone keeps turning off."
The old lady asked Ning Kezhu to sit down, poured her a glass of water, and said: "This child has been very busy recently. I often hear him coming back in the middle of the night and leaving early in the morning. Before, he always came to accompany me.
I haven’t been here much recently to eat. Maybe my phone is out of battery, so don’t worry too much.”
Ning Kezhu nodded and said, "Did Cheng Yu cause you a lot of trouble by renting your house? I also heard him say that he always comes to your place to make a living."
The old lady smiled and said, "I wish I had someone to eat with me. I'm old and it's hard to leave my hometown. My children are all in the United States, and I can't adapt to the life there. Cheng Yu is a very good person."
Boy, I quite like him."
"Yes, Cheng Yu is a good boy, and his father and I have always felt that he was treated a little badly. Although it is actually for his own good to let him study in the United States, but after all, he is so young and left alone abroad."
"What's the matter with you looking for him in such a hurry?"
Ning Kezhu hesitated for a moment, wondering whether he should tell the old lady these things.
The old lady saw that it was not convenient for her to talk, so she stopped asking any more questions.
Handing over the TV remote control, the old lady said: "Let's watch TV for a while... Oh, by the way, have you had dinner? If not, I still have some leftovers here. If you don't mind, you can have a bite."
"
Ning Kezhu was just about to say that he had eaten, but his stomach growled a bit unsatisfactorily. When the old lady heard this, she stood up with a smile and stopped asking Ning Kezhu for her opinion. She went to the kitchen to heat up the dishes and brought them out.
.
Seeing that the old lady was already busy with her work, she would rather take the bamboo and eat it generously.
While eating, Ning Kezhu thought clearly. She actually didn't know much about money laundering, but the old lady had been engaged in economics all her life, and her son was an investment banker in the United States, so she might know more about it.
Some.
So, after Ning Kezhu finished eating, he said to the old lady: "To be honest, something happened to the kid Cheng Yu, and I was too anxious."
"If you can, just tell me. Maybe I can give you some advice."
Ning Kezhu then told the old lady what happened at Cheng Yu's stall. After listening, the old lady pondered silently.
"This is a bit strange. Logically speaking, it is impossible for investors to be responsible for every inflow of funds, but Cheng Yu has such a deep understanding of the economy that it is impossible not to know that money laundering must be done as much as possible.
Stay away and avoid getting involved. Since there is obviously something wrong with the other party, and there are also questions about the way the funds are transferred, how could he not see that the money is abnormal if he is so smart? I also know the situation of your family, which is only a few thousand dollars.
This kid probably won't take the commission of ten thousand dollars seriously, right? There's something fishy about this..."
Ning Kezhu said anxiously: "Isn't it? I don't know why he got so confused, he was just fooling around. His girlfriend tried to persuade him many times, but he just didn't listen. Even if he really didn't know the money
If there is a problem, it would be better for him to take the initiative to explain the situation to the police. At least he will be prepared and avoid incriminating himself."
"Haha, Xiao Ning, don't be too anxious. I think there must be something you don't know here.
I have not known Cheng Yu for a long time, but I know that he is a very well-founded person and is unlikely to be confused about this kind of thing.
Moreover, from my understanding, since the police have now started to focus on this fund and even launched an investigation, as long as Cheng Yu does not cash out the money from the market and transfer it to that person in some obviously unreasonable way
customer, then the police will not have enough evidence to prosecute him.
In fact, I think Cheng Yu must know that there is something wrong with the money, and maybe his current behavior is simply cooperating with the police. Wait a minute, I will turn on the computer to check and check the recent investment trends of Great Expectations."
Ning Kezhu nodded, and the old lady went back to the house to get her computer, and began to check the recent investment trends of Great Expectations through some internal channels.
When she discovered that in the past few days, Great Expectations had invested a large amount of funds in the stock and futures markets, and even the secondary market, she probably knew what was going on.
It is impossible for any investment institution to be so irresponsible with customers' funds, especially to a large customer who gave away 100 million US dollars in one move.
Normally, after Cheng Yu gets this money, he should be more cautious in investing. It is best to participate in the financing of some companies, and then use shares to liquidate the profits and profits after the funds expire.
no.
This is also more consistent with money laundering techniques. After all, it is more difficult to find sufficient evidence for shares than cash.
But Cheng Yu's approach is obviously to spread these funds to the market as soon as possible. This is tantamount to giving the police an opportunity to trace the source of the funds. There must be a problem here.
After closing the computer, Ning Kezhu asked anxiously: "How is it?"
"If nothing else goes wrong, all the US$100 million in funds should have flowed into the market. The operation was done very hastily, and it didn't look like a money laundering method at all. It seemed like they were deliberately giving the police enough clues so that they could
Tracing the source of the funds... Xiao Ning, if nothing else, I think Cheng Yu is cooperating with the police, and even from the beginning, he has been helping the police investigate this client."
Ning Kezhu was stunned for a moment and said, "Really? In this case, will Cheng Yu be in danger?"
"This is a problem. After all, money launderers are not good people. However, I think if Cheng Yu is really cooperating with the police as I expected, then he should already have a more comprehensive plan.
Think about it, it is impossible for the police not to protect his personal safety. Either you should calm down and wait and see about this matter. If we intervene now, it will cause trouble for the police's work."
"But if it wasn't as you said, wouldn't Xiao Yu be in big trouble?"
"It's not that, if there is really trouble, the police won't take action now. They should wait until Cheng Yu cashes out the funds and prepares to transfer them to the customer before taking action. Only then can Cheng Yu be convicted.
