Chapter 179: Inventory
The Bank of Naples is one of the largest state-owned banks in Italy, founded in 1804 by the government of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies after the integration of several domestic banks, and the Bank of Naples was formed with the meaning of a central bank.
However, after the unification of Italy, the Bank of Naples was nationalized. Over the next two decades, the Bank of Naples grew in line with Italy's economic development. At present, the bank has 13 branches in Italy, more than 200 outlets, and total assets of 241 million lira, making it one of the few large state-owned banks in Italy.
The Venice branch of the Bank of Naples is one of the top three branches of the bank, ranking among the best in terms of revenue, profits, deposits, etc.
Therefore, the employees of the Venice branch have a sense of pride, but during this time, the arrival of the cold winter from the bankers made even the top three Venice branch employees not proud, because the cold winter was about to arrive at them.
Koulibaly is well-groomed and meticulous in his hair, as his job requires him to maintain a good image. As usual, he took a picture of his clothes at the staff entrance, then pushed the door open and walked inside.
Looking at today's hall, there is something unusual, there is not a single customer, and the employees are whispering in groups. He frowned at such a sight and couldn't help but let out a cough.
"Uh-huh!"
The familiar coughing sound startled the employees who gathered together to chat, and they didn't know who was coming when they turned around, so they all turned into birds and beasts, and each returned to his post, all showing their own skilled smiles, ready to greet customers who might arrive.
They are so well trained, in addition to the strict requirements of their top boss Koulibaly, there are also salaries that are much higher than in other industries. Overall, there are 25% more jobs in banks than in other industries, so this has led to banking jobs being sought-after, and a large number of applicants can fill the recruiter's room whenever any bank is short of staff.
Of course, this needs to be added, and it is limited to both large banks and private banks.
Because of these two types of banks, the former is able to use the power in their hands, while the latter is more paid and demanding.
But it didn't work for Koulibaly, because he was just the lobby manager, and it wouldn't be his turn to work with oil and water. The credit department and the securities department are the two departments where there is a lot of oil and water, and if you want to get in, you need more than just ability.
Of course, for Koulibaly, the lobby manager, who earns 380 lira a month, is also very good for him. This can allow his family to live a slightly more decent life, so he will not choose to leave unless he has to.
But in this environment, he is glad in his heart that he is fortunate not to enter these two departments, because now it is the hardest hit area. I heard that on the side of the head office, these two departments fell in pieces.
Only 48 percent of the credit department was left behind, and the rest were either fired, discharged, or arrested. It's like a tornado, it's a mess.
The securities department is better, 53% of the people stayed, but there are few people who have problems there, but the problem is more serious, there are few dismissals and sick retirements, and they are basically taken away.
The scale of the disaster shows the seriousness of the current problems in the Italian banking sector.
However, this question has nothing to do with Koulibaly, because he is nothing more than a lobby manager of the daimyo.
Just as Koulibaly was patrolling his workplace to see if his subordinates were lazy, he was approached by an internal clerk.
"Manager Koulibaly, the president has something to look for you."
Faced with the summons of the branch president, Koulibaly naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately hurriedly climbed the stairs.
After knocking on the door three times in a row, the governor's voice came from inside the door. "Who?"
Koulibaly hurriedly spoke, "President Burnett, it's me. ”
"Come in."
Faced with the president's words, Koulibaly immediately pushed the door in.
"Governor, are you looking for me?"
When Koulibaly said this, he found that he was not alone in the governor's office, and on the long sofa opposite, three men dressed differently from the bank, were sitting opposite the president. And the president sitting in the boss's chair, as if it was hot, kept wiping the sweat stains on his forehead with a handkerchief.
As if Koulibaly was the savior, without waiting for him to ask, President Burnett stood up as if his ass was on fire, and introduced the three of them to him with a smile on his face.
"These three guests are from the head office, they are Commissioner Mitchell, his assistant Mr. Edson, Mr. Zapata, the three of them need an old employee who is familiar with our bank, responsible for taking them to review the information of the branch, so I asked you to come, the Nilai branch has been more than eight years, and I believe that the knowledge of the bank is enough to be qualified for this job."
The governor's words made Koulibaly not know what to say, knowing that he was nothing more than a lobby manager and knew very little. However, when the governor turned his back to the three visitors and faced himself, he made a look. There is no way, for the sake of his own job, he can only agree to come down.
"No problem, just give it to me by the president."
After saying this, Koulibaly took out the spirit of serving big customers and walked in front of the three. "I'll serve the three of you next, I don't know what you think?"
The other two didn't speak, and Commissioner Mitchell, who was sitting in the middle, smiled. "Alright, let's ask Koulibaly to lead the way, we have limited time, we must speed up."
"This way, please!"
After waiting for Koulibaly to leave with the three of them, President Burnett saw that they were really far away, and immediately closed the door, and deliberately locked it. Then he picked up the phone, dialed a number he knew, and waited anxiously.
"Hey, that one?"
When a familiar inquiry came out of the earpiece, President Burnett immediately shouted. "Zeman, it's me, I'm Burnett."
"Burnett, what's the matter?"
"The people sent by the monitoring team are ahead of schedule, you must return that money in advance, or I will be sent to prison."
"But it will take three days for me to get the money over, and the money is not in my hands."
The answer on the other end of the microphone made President Burnett furious, and he said with a blushing face. "I don't care about these reasons, if I don't get it back tomorrow morning, I'm unlucky, you can't run either."
After putting down this cruel remark, Burnett slapped the microphone heavily on the stand.
The three damn inspectors arrived early, completely disrupting their plans, and now they had to find a way to get the money back.
What should I do?
Burnett, you can do it! This thing is not difficult for you, believe in yourself, yes, you will be able to do it......
While President Burnett was thinking of a solution, Koulibaly had already brought them into the archives.
He pointed to the bundles of papers in the room and said, "This is the existence of our branch. ”
Commissioner Mitchell, who took the lead, smiled. "I'm sorry for you, we'll do it ourselves."
"Don't you want me to stay and explain to you?"
"No, thank you."
When Koulibaly was gone, Commissioner Mitchell looked at the bundle of documents.
"There's definitely something wrong with that President Burnett."
Edson spoke his own judgment.
In the face of Edson's words, the other deputy spoke. "This shows that we need to look for evidence to take it down."
Mitchell glanced at the two lieutenants, then pointed to the archived documents. "I believe we caught them off guard, and we need to find all kinds of clues from this, and then get rid of all these moths."
"No problem!"
I'm in a good mood
