It was not that Victor completely ignored Will's proposal. In fact, this was not the first time that the matter of buying a boat had been mentioned.
Even if you don't engage in smuggling steel or other building materials, you still need an ocean-going trade cruise ship if you want to make profits.
So even though he didn't express his opinion in person, Victor privately decided to go to Giant Bank and wanted to get some professional advice from the bank manager.
but……
The worst happened when he arrived at the Giant Bank...
He saw various citizens crowding outside the bank, holding signs high and insulting all kinds of unpleasant words in different languages.
From the Bain language that he could understand, Victor got an amazing news!
"The giant bank collapsed? Bank staff absconded with the money?"
Taking a breath of air, Victor's mind went blank, as if it had been hollowed out.
The curses and excitement in his ears could no longer be heard clearly. It was a long time before he began to recall how much money he had deposited in Giant Bank.
"Sixty thousand faraka? Or forty thousand faraka? My money...my family fortune..."
Obviously, Victor's mind has become a little unclear.
The next second, he joined the group of protestors, swearing and shouting loudly...
…
Things in the world are unpredictable. Even with the secret knowledge of fortune-telling, Victor cannot predict his life all the time.
About an hour later, his situation went from being among the crowd to protest, to being invited into the Giant Bank, sitting in a certain office, and being treated to a fireplace and drinking coffee.
By the way, the name of Giant Bank has now been changed. It is said that Storm Bank reformed the system and withdrew the funds of Giant Bank.
When Victor learned the news, he felt even more depressed. He never imagined that the Berkeley family would trick him in the end.
As a victim, his treatment is much better than those who are still protesting outside, because the people currently handling the aftermath within Giant Bank recognize him.
"You are... Mr. Vladimir, right?" An old man came to the office to meet Victor with a smile on his face.
Victor didn't know the other party, but the other party knew his original alias? He looked at it with some suspicion.
Although he finally remembered that the money he deposited in the Giant Bank was 40,000 francs instead of 60,000, this amount would not allow him to receive treatment above that of ordinary customers.
I believe that among the protesting guys outside, there must be someone who has invested more money than him, but they are not the ones who were invited in.
"I'm sorry, I'm grateful that you picked me out from a group of mobs and invited me into the room, but that doesn't make me give up collecting debts." Victor put down the coffee cup, "Also, who are you?"
"You don't need to know my name, Mr. Victor, you just need to know that I was a banker employed by the Berkeley family before taking over the aftermath of Giant Bank."
The old man was very good at talking and had a calm demeanor. Not only did he know the pseudonyms that Victor had used in the past, but he also knew his real name.
Looking back, when Victor was working on financial products at Giant Bank, he did not use Vladimir's name, but used his own.
"Don't worry, since I am in charge of the work, I will definitely keep the client's confidentiality confidential. Even Mr. Siqin cannot find out your real name from me."
The old man gave a guarantee, and then he explained to Victor what happened at Giant Bank.
"After Mr. Sitchin came to power, he conducted a large number of audits on some of the industries owned by the Berkeley family and found many fraudulent activities, including Giant Bank."
"So, after firing several senior executives, he decided to deregister Giant Bank and merge the funds into Storm Bank, thereby eliminating 90% of the original Giant Bank's personnel."
"Many of the account managers who were facing dismissal were dissatisfied with the Berkeley family's decision, so they secretly transferred a large amount of funds from the original Giant Bank and absconded, leading to the current situation."
When the other party said this, he paused, and Victor completely understood.
He stood up from the sofa, his expression uncertain.
"In other words, it was a former employee of Giant Bank who stole the bank's funds and then ran away?"
"Yes, sir, the person in charge of your investment business..." the old man began to look through the ledger in his hand, "Mr. Gillen Hall is one of the account managers who absconded with the money."
Victor gritted his teeth and walked to the window, squeezing out the word "grass" from between his teeth.
He remembered that he still had 30,000 yuan hidden in the Xianxiang Mansion. Fortunately, he didn't have time to throw it all into his previous investment projects.
"How does Mr. Sitchin Berkeley decide to deal with this problem? I need an answer." Victor turned around with a sullen face.
Few people in Renekton dared to challenge Sitchin Berkeley, let alone question him.
But the old man was not angry when facing Victor. Maybe he knew Victor's ability and position within the Anti-Suppression Department, so he made an indefinite promise: "We will definitely give you a satisfactory compensation plan. Of course, we will also
Including all those who were harmed by this incident."
"When will we be compensated? Will we pay the money directly?" Victor felt unreliable.
The old man closed the account book and faced him with a smile: "Please go back and wait for the good news..."
…
In the end, the old man did not reveal where Siqin was currently. Victor did not see him that day, so he was even more uncertain about the promise. He decided to rely on himself.
First of all, he had to catch the fat bank clerk, that Gillen Hale.
He first made a prediction, but he got a lingering idea. He was not sure of the location, but it might be at sea.
This is a bit vague. Victor is considering whether to use his authority to call people from the Inspection Bureau to help him investigate?
But after all, this was his own private matter, and he always felt a little sorry. Later, he thought about it and walked into the door of the police station.
"I'm here to report the crime, gentlemen police officers..."
Victor showed his badge to identify himself, and then "legally" used the manpower and material resources of the police station to help him investigate.
The collapse of Giant Bank is not a trivial matter in Renekton. Many people came to report the case in the past two days, but none of them received the attention of the police station until Victor arrived...
Due to his status as the deputy of the Anti-Suppression Department, people within the police station took it seriously and assigned personnel to help him investigate the whereabouts of Gillen Hale.
But this group of people had low abilities and low efficiency. In the end, Victor pointed them in the direction, and three days later they found the whereabouts of the other party from the ticket purchase records of Port Violet.
Victor couldn't help feeling that if de Gaulle was still here, he might have found out the other party's traces in less than half a day.
The divination operator's previous conclusion was correct. Gillen Hal did indeed escape to the west by boat. Judging from the ticket purchase records, the destination was the Greybean Empire...
However, the problem that troubles Victor is that the guy escaped a long time ago, before the thunder at Giant Bank.
In other words, if we want to pursue the other party's travel route now, it is almost impossible.
Victor was even more upset, but he had no choice but to curse the Xiqin ancestral tomb for smoking, and couldn't understand why they only informed him now.
"I'll see what answer you give me then..."
Victor has already thought about how to raise an army to punish him.
