Chapter 248: The embarrassment of having no money
When this happened, Mao Xiaohu's first reaction was, of course, to call the bank and ask what was going on.
The results of the call were shocking, unexpected, but reasonable:
The 2088 fund was filed for investigation, and his father Mao Dalong, as the number one suspect, has been arrested in accordance with the law, so in order to cooperate with the work of the investigation team, all the property of the Mao family, including the bank accounts, real estate, and cars in Mao Xiaohu's own name have all been frozen.
Fortunately, when Hong Romance was doing the property transfer at that time, Mao Xiaohu only signed his name on the shares, and the legal representative still hung the false name of the previous manager, and he had not had time to change, so he was not in the scope of being affected this time.
This can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, finally leaving the only property and foothold for himself and his brothers.
At that time, when Mao Xiaohu heard the description of the bank staff, he felt very aggrieved:
If I want to say that the houses and cars under my name were bought by my father Mao Dalong for me, then what about the remaining more than one million dollars in cash in my bank account? That is when I bought Tianxiangyuan and went to Hengxin second-hand car dealers to make trouble, people compensated me, this is completely my own legal income, income and expenditure details and bank statements can all be checked!
So, he complained to the bank staff about his confusion and incomprehension, but the reply from the staff made him want to cry without tears:
"Hello, Mr. Mao, do you mean that the remaining 1.3 million deposits in your bank account were completed by you through your own efforts and business operations, without any help from your father Mao Dalong?
Mao Xiaohu was stunned when he heard this: I said that the company I worked for before was the Queen's Bar, and the legal representative was not Wu Fatian? This is tantamount to asking Wu Fatian to come forward to help me, how is it possible? I just slapped him in public and killed his little brother, he is now disgraced, and he hates me to the bone, let alone help me, it is estimated that if I appear in front of him now, he will break me into pieces!
This road will definitely not work, and after hanging up the phone gloomily, Mao Xiaohu felt very helpless and frustrated, but there was no way, he could only accept this result.
If the deposit of more than one million yuan was wasted like this, if it had been left in the past, he would definitely not even blink an eye, but now? For him, let alone one million, even if he added an extra hundred yuan to his account, he would be crazy with joy.
originally thought that all the bad luck should be over here, and he was unlucky enough, but what he didn't expect was that this was just the beginning, and all these things were like dominoes.
Soon, the collection calls followed, all of which were construction companies that had cooperated with the Mao family, because his father Mao Dalong wanted to launder and undertook a big project, but because he was now taken away by the investigation team, all the assets of the Mao family were frozen, so the capital chain of this big project was broken, and now the project is suspended, material costs, land transfer money, taxes, and workers' wages are all gone, and the hole in the project arrears is getting bigger and bigger!
But what can Mao Xiaohu do? He can only answer the phone one by one, apologize, let the other party have a few more days, and give him a little more time to raise money, which simply makes him feel dizzy and haggard.
There are more than a billion yuan in the family's account, but it was frozen by the bank, and if you can't take it out, you can't do anything about it!
And even if you can take out the money, you can't move a penny, because this money is to be left to my father Mao Dalong to reduce his sentence and compensate for the crime, so that the judge can see that the criminal proceeds and fines are more active, and the sentence will be a few years less, and strive to come out as soon as possible!
As the saying goes, there are thousands of kinds of happiness for the rich, and there are thousands of forms, but the troubles of the poor are all different.
Money is a good thing, it can solve 99 percent of the world's problems, but what about the remaining 1 percent?
And the first step to running out of money at the moment is how to pay the bill for this barbecue?
He roughly calculated, just these big squid, 10 yuan per string, add up to seventy or eighty, and other chicken legs, scallops, pork belly, tenderloin, beef and mutton, etc., this barbecue will be at least about 200 yuan.
But he only had 91.6 yuan left on him, not even a hundred yuan!
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that one day my Mao Xiaohu would be sad about a barbecue for a mere two hundred yuan!" he sighed with some emotion in his heart, and laughed at himself with a wry smile.
Is it difficult to ask Su Qingqing to pay?
How humiliating it is to go out on a date with a girl and make the girl pay?
I was still talking about buying a Ragdoll cat as a gift, and when I saw that the price was less than 60,000, I had to swipe the card without blinking, but it was only a few minutes later, and I couldn't even afford a barbecue, hey, what a shame!
Later, there was really no way, so Mao Xiaohu had no choice but to go up and say to the owner of the barbecue stall: "I'm really embarrassed, boss, I forgot to bring the money when I went out today, and I will pay you together next time!"
This excuse seems reasonable, but in fact it is full of loopholes, what age is it now, and you still play out without money? WeChat Alipay is so popular, not to mention barbecue stalls, even the street pancakes have a QR code to scan!
You said you didn't bring any money, that's okay, I'll give you a QR code, you scan it. It doesn't matter if you don't have enough money, now Huabei supports scanning code payment, two hundred yuan, normal people should have this amount, right?
In fact, as early as when he was in college before, Mao Xiaohu opened Huabei and borrowed for a period of time because of the tight living expenses, the amount is not high, but one or two thousand yuan is still available, and a barbecue is not a problem at all, but now is an extraordinary period, the front foot bank froze his account, and the back foot institutions stopped all his financial openings, not to mention the most basic Huabei borrowing, and even the service of riding a Harrow bicycle without a deposit of one dollar has been closed, the reason is that the credit score is too low, and the integrity is not guaranteed!
Seeing this, Mao Xiaohu couldn't help but scolded in his heart: I'll fuck you, integrity is not guaranteed? Is it possible that I am still afraid that Lao Tzu will steal your broken car and sell it for scrap? My Mao Xiaohu is not poor enough to do this!
Fortunately, the boss was practical enough, and did not expose his embarrassment, but waved his hand, and said with a simple smile: "Oh, just a barbecue money, free of charge, no need to pay! You are from our Yantai, fellow countryman, I trust you! I remember that you used to come with that black friend who called Hu Bing, right?"
"Hey, hey, what's more, I drove you over in a BMW last time, and it was parked in the square in front of you, and you said you can even afford a BMW, can you still send me money for this barbecue, isn't it?"
"Thank you boss, thank you boss!" Mao Xiaohu was moved, although it was only two hundred yuan, he still felt a warm current passing by in his heart.
"Hey, why didn't you drive that car today?"
"Oh, this piece of traffic police is strictly investigated, and all kinds of illegal parking photos are not easy to drive in!"
Mao Xiaohu smiled embarrassedly.
Just when he was happy in his heart, he felt that this boss was really a good person, when he went out, he met a fellow is righteousness, at this time, a slightly mocking voice next to him sounded melodiously:
"Ouch, isn't this who it is? Mao Xiaohu Mao Young Master, what's the matter! I used to drive a Daben, and then I drove a BMW, but now I can't even afford to pay for a barbecue? In this Internet era, who are you still using the guise of not bringing money? You don't have a fucking mobile phone!"
How obscene and obscene the voice was, coupled with the villainous expression on his face, Mao Xiaohu wanted to go up and strangle this guy at that time!
Don't mention it, the guy next to him is Su Qingqing's ex-boyfriend, and Mao Xiaohu's second enemy who cuckolded himself in the provincial capital in addition to Liu Tianci, the son of the former chef of Tianxiangyuan, Tian Dazhuang!
What a coincidence, fuck, this shitty thing, what a time!
"Hey, I watched the TV news two days ago, is your father's name Mao Dalong? I heard that he has been arrested, has the bank frozen your family's money as the proceeds of crime? Are you penniless now, young master?"
"Okay, if you really don't have the money to tell me, I have, I'll pay for this barbecue, okay?"
