Qian suddenly sat up in bed excitedly, turned on the headlights and shook his wife's arm. He wants to discuss an earth-shattering thing with her.

Qian sat alone in front of the desk in the living room on the second floor, weakly dialing the abacus beads and constantly sighing. Since last autumn, his hotel business has been declining, especially after the Spring Festival. Especially in recent months, it has been hovering on the edge of loss! He couldn't help worrying. What can he do in the long run?

14 years ago, Qian and his wife Miao Cuilian were both workers of Hongxing Machinery Factory in Dongcheng District. At that time, the factory was acquired by a private institution in Shanghai. Except for a few technicians, most of the original workers were laid off, and everyone only got more than 10 thousand yuan as compensation, which is the so-called "buyout service" Qian and his wife didn't go to college, and they didn't have any special skills. Of course, they can't escape being laid off! At that time, they had a 6-year-old son who had just entered primary school.

Qian wants to work in Shenzhen to earn money, but he can't help worrying. If you go with your wife and children, there will be a lot of inconvenience if you are a stranger there. And if you go south alone and leave your wife and children in Linyi, you will feel a little uneasy. Finally he made up his mind to find a way out in Linyi! The living can still be suffocated by urine?

After many investigations, the couple bought some cookers and furniture with the money from buyout service, set up a food stall at the intersection of Shaanxi South Road and Haicheng East Road, and sold some snacks such as wonton, jiaozi and noodles. They set up a stall at 5 pm every day and work until midnight 12; Although it is very hard, I finally have a living income; I can save a little every month besides my family. The young couple worked so hard 1 1 year, and actually accumulated hundreds of thousands!

Qian believes that he and his wife are getting older and older, and their physical condition is far worse than before. How can such a livelihood that comes and goes in the wind and rain last? After repeated discussions with his wife, they decided to run a smaller hotel.

At that time, there was a small hotel to be transferred at No.358, South Shaanxi Road, so Mr. and Mrs. Qian volunteered and took over the hotel at a price of 6.5438+0.5 million yuan, named Juxiangge. This hotel is a two-story building. The lobby on the first floor is about 70 square meters, and there are two small boxes, a small yard and two flat cabins at the back, which are used as kitchen and warehouse respectively. There is a flight of stairs from the yard to the second floor, which is the residence of the original hotel owner.

At first, in order to save money, Qian became a cook himself, and his wife was also a cashier and deliveryman, and only hired a handyman to help. Money is born with a temper. He always likes to ponder things and always wants to be as perfect as possible. He thought that since he opened his own restaurant, he must have his own special dishes to attract more customers! So Qian began to study various recipes and constantly improve his cooking skills. Many things happen. With the efforts of the couple, the business of the hotel is booming. Later, they hired a chef and two waiters one after another.

But as the saying goes, "there are unexpected events in the sky, and people have misfortune and happiness." Just as Mr. and Mrs. Qian were full of ambition and ready to make persistent efforts, an unexpected event happened!

Juxiangge's business is booming, attracting the envy of onlookers. Last autumn, a businessman surnamed Zhou lost no time in opening a restaurant on South Shaanxi Road, which was much higher in scale and grade than Juxiangge! The name of that hotel is Fire Rose Restaurant, which is diagonally opposite Juxiangge!

This fire rose restaurant is not only luxuriously decorated, but also has two well-dressed and scantily dressed waitresses in front of it, which attracts passers-by to stop and look back. It is said that they also hired several senior chefs, and all kinds of dishes are delicious in color and flavor, which makes the old customers of Juxiangge flock to them!

Qian Guangkun sees it in his eyes and is anxious in his heart! He thought, isn't the other party's purpose just to bring down his own small restaurant? But their own financial resources are totally different from each other, so what can they compete with others? He remembered a famous saying in business circles: eat small fish, a big fish, eats shrimp, and shrimp eats mud. Now it seems that I have to eat mud! I'm afraid it won't be long before my hotel is bound to close down! So how do you spend the rest of your life? My son is in college, and the annual tuition and living expenses exceed 10 thousand yuan!

Money was lamenting when his wife and son rushed in and cried, "Oh, no! I just got a phone call saying that my mother suddenly lost consciousness and was taken to the First People's Hospital of Lin Yu by a neighbor. I must get there at once! The hotel will be taken care of by you! "

In the afternoon 1 half past ten, the hotel has no guests. Money took care of these guys, and then pushed the motorcycle out of the door.

Just now, my wife called from Linyi First People's Hospital and said that her mother is still in a coma and is now lying in the intensive care unit of brain surgery for treatment. According to a series of examination results such as brain CT scan, a pigeon eggs-sized hematoma appeared in the mother's brain, which is said to be caused by the rupture of cerebral blood vessels and blood overflow. According to the doctor, he is not out of danger at present, and whether surgery is needed in the future needs further observation. According to the regulations of the hospital, a deposit of 12000 yuan is required for hospitalization and must be delivered this afternoon. His wife also takes care of him. When he comes to the hospital in the afternoon, he must bring the passbook of ICBC. There is an ICBC at the gate of the First People's Hospital.

The money got on the motorcycle and sighed again and again. It's really rainy night! My hotel is so depressed, but my mother-in-law suddenly catches shadows! I wonder how much it will cost. Today's hospital is a money tiger. How can I let you out without draining your blood? He felt tightness in his chest, as if he were holding a big stone in his heart!

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, money arrived at the gate of Linyi First People's Hospital, and there was an industrial and commercial bank on the left side of the gate. Before going to the hospital, he stopped his motorcycle to get money.

Money took the passbook out of his pocket and walked into the bank. He saw that every row of seats in the hall was full of people. It seems that I couldn't get the money half an hour ago! Let's go to the ward to see my mother-in-law first. Thinking about it, Qian took a number from the automatic numbering machine in the bank lobby and left.

The brain surgery ward is located on the seventh floor of the surgical building. Qian took the elevator to the seventh floor and went to his mother-in-law's intensive care unit. He saw his mother-in-law lying pale in the hospital bed, still unconscious, while his wife hung her head and sat beside her in dismay. The bedside table next to the sickbed is filled with all kinds of monitoring instruments, while the mother-in-law is filled with all kinds of pipes. Money can't help but sigh. All that flows in this pipe is my hard-earned money. I just don't know when it will end!

His wife sobbed and told him that her mother went to the market to buy food this morning and somehow fell down on her way home. That's it. According to the proprietress of a roadside grocery store, my mother was walking well when she was hit by a sudden battery car and fell down. What is even more hateful is that the man riding the battery car knows that he has made a big disaster. Instead of getting out of the car to save him, he ran away at once! Where can we find the criminals now? They have to admit that they are unlucky!

Qian comforted his wife for a few words, then left the ward and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China outside the gate to withdraw money. He saw that the number on the big screen had been called 132. He looked at his number column, and it was 138. It will take a while! So he found a seat in the hall and waited patiently.

He was sulking while waiting. How can you be so unlucky? My own hotel business was not bad, but only a few days after this good day, I was squeezed out by others! What is even more exasperating is that my hotel was just renovated last summer and spent a whole 20 thousand! Isn't that twenty thousand dollars too wronged? Now my mother-in-law was beaten for no reason and had a stroke. I don't know whether to operate in the future! Wan _ really want to operate, and I don't know how much it will cost!

Qian was cursing the person riding the battery car when he suddenly heard 138 in the microphone. He immediately went to the counter, handed the passbook to the female clerk inside and told her to withdraw 12000 yuan. The salesgirl was counting money when a man in the counter came up to her and bent down to talk to her. Then they laughed and laughed. Qian bitterly thought that the female clerk was counting money. What's the matter with you? He looked at the man and saw that he was in his early thirties, of medium build, with a pale and thin face. His small eyes seem to be particularly flexible, turning around, revealing sly and strange eyes. Money suddenly felt that the man seemed to have seen it somewhere. But where have you seen it? He can't remember at the moment. After a while, the female employee handed out 12000 yuan and the passbook. After counting the money, leave the bank and go to the hospital to pay.

That night, Qian was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He is counting the poor remaining funds in his bankbook.

A few years ago, my wife and I ran a food stall. Although it is hard to come and go in the rain every day, we also saved a real178,000 yuan! Later, I took over this small restaurant and spent a total transfer fee of150,000. Then I simply renovated it and added some furniture such as kitchen stoves, refrigerators and range hoods. There was not much money left in my hand. In the first few days after Juxiangge opened, it really flourished for a while. In the first two years, I actually made a profit of 50,000 to 60,000! At that time, Qian and his wife were a drop in the bucket. If calculated according to this, in ten years, it is estimated that they can save hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan. By then, they can expand their small restaurant into a big restaurant, and Qian will no longer be a little-known boss, but should become the general manager of a famous restaurant!

But that damn fire rose restaurant made the couple's dream go up in smoke in an instant! The money is clear, and the operation of Juxiangge is now in jeopardy! Although we can barely maintain some tourists now, we are basically unprofitable after paying rent, taxes, employee salaries, utilities and many other expenses every month, and even lost money for two months! At this rate, what's the point of continuing to run this hotel? It is better to close the door at once! However, if the hotel is really transferred, how can the family make a living?

Although I saved more than 50,000 yuan in the previous two years, I spent 20,000 yuan to redecorate the hotel last year. This afternoon, I withdrew 12000 yuan to pay the hospitalization deposit for my mother-in-law, and now there is only 20,000 yuan left in my passbook. Summer vacation is coming soon, and my son's tuition and fees will be more than 10 thousand next semester. Now my mother-in-law is lying in a coma in the hospital ward, which is actually a bottomless pit! I don't know how much it will cost in case of brain surgery in the future! Money's head will explode at the thought of this, and he can't continue to think about it!

Qian suddenly remembered the situation when he withdrew money from ICBC this afternoon. The man who came out of the counter was whispering something with the female staff of the bank, grinning from time to time. What a nuisance! At that time, Qian felt that he seemed to have seen this man somewhere, because this man had a pair of small brown eyes, which were ga zi ng and kept turning, and looked particularly smart and impressive! However, Qian can't remember where he met.

Now, it suddenly occurred to Qian that this man had indeed seen it himself, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat! It's him!

Qian Guangkun vaguely realized that his chance to make a fortune might be just around the corner! As the saying goes, God never shuts one door but he opens another! Now that your enterprise is facing a crisis, you must not miss this golden opportunity! Qian Guangkun suddenly sat up in bed excitedly. Qian turned on the headlights and shook his wife's arm. He wants to discuss an earth-shattering event with her!

Miao Cuilian was awakened from her sleep by her husband and asked sleepily, "What the hell are you doing? Wake me up suddenly in the middle of the night! "

"Ada, I want to discuss a very important thing with you! We are going to be rich! " The face of money is red. His voice trembled because of excessive excitement.

"You are probably talking in a dream? What money can you earn! " The wife simply turned her face to the headstrong and ignored him.

Money immediately turned to the bed and shouted excitedly, "I'm not talking in my sleep." This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! "

Miao Cuilian seems to be moved by her husband. She rubbed her eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Where are the opportunities to make a fortune? "

"Do you remember the robbery that happened a week ago?"

"You mean the ICBC robbery that killed a security guard?" Miao Cuilian can't help but cheer up!

"Yes, that's the robbery!"

"But what does this have to do with us?" She is still puzzled.

"Because I found an important clue this afternoon, and now I know who did the robbery!"

Just as the man brought the box in, Qian glanced at the room and saw another person inside. The man looked short, sitting in a chair with his back to the door, smoking.

It turns out that just a week ago, on April 2 1 day, a great event happened in Lin Yu!

At about one o'clock noon that day, two masked armed robbers suddenly broke into the Huaihai Road Savings Office of ICBC, which is located at the entrance of the First People's Hospital of Linyi City. There are only two customers in the bank because it is a nap. After the two robbers entered the bank, they immediately locked the bank door, threatened the two customers, five employees and a security guard with guns, and made them all stand in a row with their hands on the wall. When the security guard tried to resist, a robber immediately pulled the trigger on his head and he was killed on the spot. After successfully robbing all the money in the bank, the two robbers immediately left the bank and fled the scene in a white van.

The police carefully checked the surveillance video in the bank afterwards, but because the two robbers covered their heads during the whole robbery, they could not see their faces. According to visual inspection, one of the robbers is of medium height, about 1.75 meters; The other robber is short, less than 1.6 meters. It was the short robber who shot the bank security guard. According to a female employee of the bank, when two robbers put all their money into a huge travel bag, she quietly looked back. She came across a red inscription the size of pigeon eggs on the outside of the short robber's left wrist.

That evening, the police found the white van in which two robbers had been riding in the western suburb of Lin Yu. After investigation, the owner of the van reported the loss two days ago, which should have been temporarily used by robbers to commit crimes. The police examined the vehicle carefully, but unfortunately, the suspect's fingerprints were not found anywhere in the door, steering wheel and car. It can be seen that the robbers have a high awareness of anti-investigation.

The police also noticed a detail. The alarm button of the bank is located behind the west end of the counter. As soon as the tall robber enters the bank, he goes straight to the west end of the counter. It seems that he knew the exact location of the alarm button in advance. However, you can't see the button from outside the counter. So, how did the robbers know the exact location of the alarm button?

One more thing makes people suspicious!

According to the director of the savings office, the daily cash stock of the savings office never exceeded 6,543,800 yuan, but on the day of the robbery, the cash stock of the bank actually reached 6,543,800 yuan! This has to make people wonder whether these two robbers will have accomplices inside the bank.

The police also conducted relevant investigations on this point.

There is a general rule in the banking industry that customers must make an appointment by telephone one day in advance if they want to withdraw a large deposit of more than 50 thousand yuan. Just the afternoon before the robbery, Huaihai Road Savings Office of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China received a phone call from a depositor, saying that it would withdraw 600,000 yuan in cash around 3 pm the next day. Therefore, the bank had to increase the cash inventory that day.

So, this is just a coincidence? Or is there something else?

And another thing almost undoubtedly shows that there is probably a mole inside the bank!

The surveillance video in the bank showed that as soon as the two robbers entered the bank, the robbers of medium height went straight to the position of the alarm button; Another short robber immediately locked the gate and threatened two customers and a security guard with a gun. Although the security guard was killed by a short robber when he tried to resist, it was still difficult for the robber to enter the counter because there was a solid security door inside and outside the counter. Surprisingly, the short robber took out a key from his pocket and opened the anti-theft door lock very easily! If there is no mole in the bank, where can he get the key to the security door?

When interviewing the police, a reporter from Lin Yu TV boldly asked whether there was a mole in the banking system. The police spokesman did not give a positive answer to this, but simply said that the case was under investigation and did not rule out any possibility at present.

Anyone with a little common sense should be able to judge. If there is a mole, it should be someone who once mastered the key to the security door! So, who has mastered the key to the security door?

According to a special report in Lin Yu Legal News, Huaihai Road Savings Office of China Industrial and Commercial Bank has eight employees and one security guard. On that day, five employees were on duty and three others were on rest. Except for the security guard killed by the robbers, all eight employees can be listed as suspects. Moreover, according to the reporter of Lin Yu Legal News, the security door separated inside and outside the counter was installed three years ago, and in the three years after the security door was installed, the staff of the savings office has changed. Last year and the year before last, five employees were transferred to other savings offices, and those five employees should have mastered the key to the security door. If any of them try to commit a crime, it should be easy to prepare a key.
