C233 – Bank President Chen Whose Power Had Been Usurped
In the car.
The young man was driving without looking around.
President Chen and Su Ming sat in the back seat.
President Chen’s body kept shrinking to the side.
There was dirt on his body.
He was afraid of dirtying Su Ming’s clothes.
When Su Ming saw this, he just smiled.
He didn’t say anything.
Su Ming didn’t mind that President Chen was dirty, but he was afraid that President Chen would be nervous.
After all, the distance was not far, only three kilometers.
Not long after, they arrived at the place.
After they got out of the car, they walked in.
President Chen held his head high and walked in. He stood in the middle of the bank hall and coughed.
The employees looked up.
They were stunned for a few seconds.
“Sir, there’s a discount on bank cards now. Do you want to apply for one?”
“This ATM machine is a bit faulty. You can use the other one.”
“Lady, how much do you want to withdraw?”
“Sorry, the bank doesn’t have a bathroom, you can go to the mall next door to find a bathroom.”
They were busy with their own business and ignored him.
President Chen was very embarrassed.
He was the president of this bank. Did they not know him?
He was very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
He took a step to the side and let Su Ming in.
Su Ming didn’t say anything and just walked in.
“Hello, Mr. Su!”
“Hurry up and make some good tea!”
“Mr. Su, have you had breakfast yet? I’ll go out and buy breakfast for you right now.”
“Mr. Su, your shoes are a little dirty. I’ll clean them for you!”
All the bank employees and even the security guards rushed to Su Ming to please him.
They surrounded him.
President Chen was stunned.
He was clearly the president of the bank!
Although Su Ming was very noble, and they should indeed do this, they shouldn’t discriminate between him and Su Ming!
Their actions made him feel helpless and awkward.
“Be quiet, there are a lot of guests here! Hurry up and work!”
President Chen stood at the side and said loudly with a frown.
However, no one paid attention to him.
President Chen felt wronged.
Even his employees ignored him.
He had the idea of quitting his job and going back home to farm.
“Everyone, hurry up and go to work!”
Su Ming said with a smile.
“Alright!”
“No problem!”
“I’ll work right away!”
When they heard Su Ming’s words, they immediately returned to work.
President Chen was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He was very depressed.
He felt that he should just give his position to Su Ming.
Although Su Ming did not like this position, he seemed to be unable to continue.
His power had been usurped!
“President Chen, what are you waiting for? Let’s go.”
Su Ming turned his head to look at President Chen.
“Alright.”
President Chen quickly reacted and led the way.
As soon as he walked up the stairs, he heard the employees say.
“His reaction is so slow. Mr. Su actually doesn’t mind him.”
“Chen Guosheng is old. I guess he will retire soon.”
When President Chen heard the discussions of the employees, he sighed.
It turned out that in their hearts, he was like this.
President Chen was extremely depressed.
He lowered his head and led the way in front. Soon, he brought Su Ming to the third floor. He opened the door to the VIP room.
At this moment, the staff on the first floor looked at each other and couldn’t help but laugh.
This was just a small joke.
They planned that as long as Mr. Su and President Chen came to the bank together, no matter what President Chen said, they would ignore him and only pay attention to Mr. Su!
But President Chen did not know.
He was still depressed.
In the VIP room sat a blond foreigner.
He was in his thirties, and there was a trace of arrogance on his face.
“You are President Chen?”
The foreign young man looked at President Chen and frowned, “Who are you?” Then he turned to Su Ming and said, “President Chen, this is our conversation. Tell the other employees to leave.”
President Chen realized that this person treated Mr. Su as an ordinary employee.
President Chen said with a gloomy face, “Sorry, you can leave now!”
The foreign young man was stunned.
He didn’t mean anything else.
“Your business is dispensable to us, but Mr. Su is our bank’s most distinguished customer!”
President Chen’s position was very clear.
The foreign young man blinked.
Although his Mandarin was not bad, he did not know much about the culture of the imperial court.
There were some things that he did not understand.
He nodded in confusion and said, “Alright then.”
After saying that, the foreign young man took a square box from the side.
He opened it and found an oil painting inside.
President Chen was very interested when he saw it.
It was an oil painting.
Moreover, judging from the color of the canvas, it should be hundreds of years old.
From a technical point of view, it was definitely painted by a famous artist.
This was a good thing!
In the country, the ancient paintings and jade artifacts in the imperial court were very valuable.
However, oil paintings from abroad were not common in the imperial court.
As the saying went, the rarer something was, the more expensive it was.
A good oil painting from abroad was not only rare, but also expensive.
This is because a lot of foreign things will circulate in their country.
President Chen blinked and said in disbelief: “If I’m not mistaken, this oil painting should be the View of Delft by the distinguished Dutch Golden Age painter, Vermeer.”
“I didn’t expect President Chen to be so learned.”
The foreign young man proudly crossed his legs. He leaned back and raised his eyebrows, “To be honest, if I didn’t lack money, I wouldn’t have mortgaged this painting to you. However, I am only mortgaging it to you. Don’t break it. After a while, I will redeem it. “
“Of course.”
President Chen was a little nervous.
He had seen many antiques, jade artifacts, and paintings by famous people, but he had rarely seen anything from abroad.
This foreign youngster’s words were very official.
Most people like him took the money and left. They almost never came to redeem their collateral.
“President Chen, my time is limited. I’ll give you half an hour. If you’re willing, then we’ll trade immediately. If you’re not willing, I’ll change banks.”
The young foreigner looked at the time and impatiently took out many identification documents for oil paintings from the box next to him.
These documents were verification documents from some foreign authorities. Although they were mainly written in a foreign language, there were translations written next to the foreign language.
