Chapter 66 No common language
A person like Jason will certainly arouse the resentment of the surrounding Chinese ethnic groups, and even the entire East Continent ethnic group, and other ethnic circles will not treat him well. Jason felt isolated, not understood, and depressed.
While he was studying there, a theft occurred on campus. Someone actually accused him of doing it, and the police even specially summoned him. Jason felt very aggrieved. Those indigenous people from the Black Wasteland only liked petty theft. Why didn't he doubt those people but instead doubted himself?
When he graduated from college, Jason wanted to continue studying for a master's degree. However, according to the school's standards for students from mainland China, his grades did not meet the standards and his application was not approved. However, several Chinese-American students who came here at the same time as him, whose grades were not as good as his, actually passed the application. He was obviously treated differently.
So he wanted to find a job, but no company he liked hired him. In the end, he did not get a work visa and was unable to stay in the United States for a long time. In desperation, he returned to Port Afro...
The above is the simple situation introduced by Lawyer Dong, coupled with Huazhenxing's inferred analysis. After listening, Huazhenxing asked again: "Why would Dongguo Bank hire such a person?"
Dong Zegang shrugged: "They don't know much about these situations, and Jason won't take the initiative to expose them. He knows how to do it more beneficial to himself. The more important reason is that it is really difficult to hire the right people here."
As he spoke, he had already arrived in front of Dongguo Bank. Dong Zegang asked curiously: "Xiaohua, what are you doing here?"
Hua Zhenxing took out two gold bars, each of twenty ounces of standard pure gold: "I heard that gold is being purchased here, so I'll support you."
Dong Zegang was slightly startled: "Then let me go with you. It can avoid a lot of trouble and the procedures will be much smoother."
Hua Zhenxing stretched out his hand to hold him down and said: "No, you must not help! If there was no trouble, I wouldn't come here. I have no intention of selling the gold bars smoothly. You should wait here for Director Mo and Mr. Tang. They'll be here in a while."
Dong Zegang was a little dissatisfied: "You kid, why do you know what's good and what's good? I'm helping you out of kindness, don't always show off!"
Hua Zhenxing: "Lawyer Dong, thank you for your kindness! But today, I am not here to sell gold, but I want to see if I sell gold in accordance with the bank's business regulations, will anyone cause trouble?"
Dong Zegang handed over a mask: "Okay, it's up to you! You have to wear a mask when you go in, what else do you need from me?"
Hua Zhenxing put on his mask, took out a small pistol and a spare magazine, and took out a self-defense finger tiger and a paratrooper dagger: "Put these guys here, the bank won't let them in. I'll pick them up when I leave."
Weapons are not allowed when entering the business hall of Dongguo Bank, and suspicious persons must be searched. This can be regarded as a unique feature of Hong Kong. The security guard in front of the door watched Hua Zhenxing get out of the car, glanced at him and took his temperature, nodded and let him go without searching his body.
In many occasions with strict security requirements in Afriso Port, Hua Zhenxing will basically not be searched, but he has always been very conscious.
The Feiso Port Branch of Dongguan Bank Kilikuni Branch was opened just two years ago. At that time, the background was that several Dongguan-aided construction projects in the Feiso Port area were being started one after another. These projects are all assisted loans provided by the Dongguk National Development Bank, and the designers, constructors, and equipment and technologies used are also from Dongguk.
There are more than 5,000 Chinese residents of Eastern descent in Port Feso, accounting for about 1% of the total population. Most of them are members of the Straw Shoe Gang. This is the result of the efforts of Mo Shangtong and his descendants over the past fifteen years. But there are still hundreds of people who did not join the Straw Shoes Gang for their own reasons, such as Dong Zegang and Jason Stone, as well as Hua Zhenxing and Old Man Yang.
The Straw Shoes Gang has strict internal discipline and never forces others to join, and not just anyone can join if they want to, and those who cannot abide by the discipline will be expelled.
In addition to these 5,000 local residents, there are also 1,500 Dongguo construction workers in Fiso Port. They usually live in self-built living quarters, have little contact with the locals, and there are certain barriers in language and culture. . In addition to construction sites and dormitories, the place where these Dongguo workers come most often is probably Dongguo Bank.
The decoration of the bank lobby is already very good according to local standards, and it actually has air conditioning. When you walk in, you feel cool and smell of disinfectant. There are several rows of chairs in the hall, and there are also security guards with guns on duty. The counter in front of them is not only covered with bulletproof glass, but also has a steel fence.
The in-line counter is located inside the long hall, and there are two separate office areas at the left and right ends. On the right is the liaison office of the Dongguk China Development Bank. It is impossible for the Dongguk China Development Bank to set up an overseas institution in a small place like Fiso Port, so it entrusted the Dongguk Bank to set up a liaison point to mainly serve the construction assistance projects.
The left end of the hall, according to Dongguo domestic customs, should be a service place for bank financial consultants. In Fiso Port, there are only five people in this department, and the person in charge is Jason. Although they can nominally provide various financial advisory services, there are very few such customers. Their actual business on weekdays is mainly to evaluate and dispose of some collateral, and also Manage the purchase of gold.
Dongguk Bank has a gold import and export business license, and it also sells and recycles gold bars in Dongguk, but it basically only operates gold buying business here. Huazhenxing has been here several times. After entering, I went straight to the financial advisory area and picked up a brochure on the shelf, which had an introduction to the gold acquisition business, written in both Eastern and English.
The counter here is not closed. There are several chairs outside, and a receptionist-looking employee sits in the middle. Hua Zhenxing sat down directly, and the man asked in English: "How can I help you?"
Huazhenxing took out two gold bars and put them on the counter, and replied in Dongguo: "I heard that you are buying plain gold. I am here to sell gold." The so-called plain gold refers to pure gold without any markings.
The man was stunned and at a loss for a moment. He couldn't understand Hua Zhenxing's words, so he changed to a stuttering local dialect and asked again: "Are you here to sell gold bars? But there is no gold code on them. We don’t accept the OK sign here.”
However, Huazhenxing ignored what he was saying and continued to speak in Dongguan: "This is pure gold. You can inspect it and charge inspection and processing fees... This business leaflet is very clear. If you listen If you don’t understand what I say or you can’t handle this business, call your person in charge.”
The receptionist still didn't understand, but by accident, he called back: "Mr. Stone, there seems to be a young man from Dongguo who is here to sell gold. What should I do?"
The real owner Huazhenxing was looking for finally came over and said to the receptionist: "Let me do it!" Then he stood there and looked down at Huazhenxing, "Sir, we don't buy loose ore here. gold."
After Hua Zhen walked in, he found that the security guards and tellers in the bank were all wearing masks, and some were wearing disposable gloves. This should be an internal requirement of the bank. But this department is not very formal. Although the receptionist just now was wearing a mask, his nose was exposed. Jason Stone simply hung the mask on his chin and did not wear it properly when talking to customers.
Jason still spoke in Yinyin, while Hua Zhenxing still spoke in Dongfang Mandarin: "Stone, your surname is Stone, are you the person in charge here? You see clearly, this is pure gold, twenty ounces each of standard gold bars.”
Jason frowned. He couldn't quite understand Huazhenxing's Dongguo dialect, which had a very standard accent. He changed to the local dialect and said: "We don't directly purchase gold from private hands here. We have an exclusive cooperation agreement with Jindianxing. Do you want to To sell gold, you can sell it to Jindian Bank, or you can ask Jindian Bank to provide you with a guarantee."
Huazhenxing also acted as if he didn't understand. He pointed to the promotional leaflet in his hand and said: "It's clearly written here, to buy gold, so I'm here. This is Dongguo Bank. Can you find someone who can speak Dongguo? Come to do business?”
The two chattered for a long time across the counter. Jason waved his arms and looked a little anxious, as if he was angry. But Hua Zhenxing ignored him at all. The two of them talked about their own things, and the scene was quite lively.
The security guard on duty in the lobby also noticed the movement here. He came closer but did not interfere. He only took out a mobile phone instead of a pistol. Because Hua Zhenxing didn't do anything out of the ordinary as a customer, he just sat there honestly, put two gold bars on the counter, and spoke calmly, without even raising his voice.
Even though Jason was already a little angry, Hua Zhenxing was not affected at all. He kept saying whatever he needed to say, and even read the business introduction on the album page one by one in Dongguan. The lobby manager came over, leaned over and asked in Dongguan: "Sir, what problem did you encounter?"
Hua Zhenxing pointed at Jason and said: "I'm here to sell gold. Even if he doesn't understand, he can understand it, but he has been unwilling to do business and doesn't know what to do here? Finally, there is someone who can speak Dongguo. The people are here!"
The lobby manager seemed to have a problem with the language barrier, so she quickly said: "Let me translate for you."
Hua Zhenxing: "No need! In fact, I understand English, but he doesn't seem to understand. Your business introduction clearly states the process of acquiring gold. He actually told me that Dongguo Bank cooperates exclusively with Jindian Bank , except for Jin Dianxing, you don’t accept anyone else’s gold, is that right?”
"That's not the case. I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding. It's because our employees are not skilled in the business... Oh, it's Xiaohua!" A middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from behind. The lobby manager turned around and said, "Okay. long!"
Hua Zhenxing also stood up and turned around: "President Chen, this is not a misunderstanding. Jason Stone, the head of your department, and the entire department he is responsible for, have been bribed by the local underworld.
His voice was so loud, I don't believe you didn't hear it just now. He said that an exclusive cooperation agreement had been signed with Jindianxing here, and only Jindianxing was qualified to sell gold here.
If you don’t know where Jindianxing is, I can tell you that it is the property of the gangster Golden Gang here. Has the dignified Dongguo Bank fallen to this point and become a subordinate service organization of the underworld?
Moreover, as an employee of Dongguo Bank, this person has long published anti-Dongguan and insulting remarks against China. He also used his position to accept bribes, falsely report financial expenses, and colluded with evil forces..."
The visitor is the president of this branch, his surname is Chen, whom Huazhenxing knows, but not very familiar with. President Chen once went to the grocery store to buy things, and he was deeply impressed by the young man named Hua, so he could recognize him as soon as he met him.
President Chen thought it was a misunderstanding, but he also felt that something was wrong with Jason, so he came down from the office on the second floor to resolve the matter at hand first. Unexpectedly, when Hua Zhenxing opened his mouth, everyone was frightened. He just directly threw out such a serious accusation, and it was completely face-to-face without any room for maneuver.
If he were a fifteen-year-old Dongguo boy, he probably wouldn't do this even if he got the information provided by Mo Shangtong. But after all, Hua Zhenxing did not grow up in Dongguo. Apart from the three old men, he had been more exposed to the locals in Fesoport since childhood, and sometimes he would do things with the straightforward style of the locals.
How did Mr. Chen hear this from upstairs? In fact, Jason still doesn't know that he was tricked by Hua Zhenxing. When Huazhenxing sat down and said his first words, not only the people in this department, but also the entire bank, including everyone upstairs, could hear it clearly. Today, Huazhenhang installed so many small speakers around the grocery store, which was also inspired by this method.
This "technical method" is not complicated, it is the art of divine consciousness transmission. It must have at least three realms of cultivation. How far the sound can be transmitted and how effective it is depends on how deep the skill is. In short, within the range that the divine consciousness can cover, the voice is spread to every corner, making it sound like you are talking next to you.
Hua Zhenxing's consciousness could barely cover the entire bank. The voice he spoke just now was not loud, but it could be heard by everyone in the bank. The most "poor" person was Jason. He just talked normally to Hua Zhenxing face to face and didn't notice anything strange at all. He still doesn't know what happened.
Why didn't Huazhen Behavior use this method when purchasing gold from the grocery store today? The area of that block is a bit big, and his consciousness can cover it, and if he wants everyone to hear the movement in the grocery store, he has to keep using his consciousness transmission technique. He is not that capable yet.
There is another shortcoming of the divine voice transmission technique. At least for now, it can only transmit Hua Zhenxing's own voice, but not the voices of other people he is talking to. If you want to achieve the same or even better effects, there is no need to rely on magical means. Installing some small speakers around you can fully meet the requirements without using any magic power, and is more beneficial to physical and mental health.
However, if you have such means, you have to use them when they should be used. When Hua Zhenxing was talking to President Chen, he was still using his spiritual voice transmission technique so that everyone in the bank could hear it.
The lobby manager was startled and subconsciously took two steps away from Jason, as if he was afraid of being stuck. This kid must have been so stunned that he ran into the bank lobby and openly said this!
The most anxious person at this time was Jason himself. He heard his name, but he didn’t understand what Hua Zhenxing and the president were talking about, because they both talked in Dongguo dialect. He called out in English: "Boss, What on earth is this kid talking about? I don’t understand a word of it!”
"The overseas branches of Dongguo Bank colluded with local evil forces, violated business regulations and laws, and blatantly defrauded compatriots and expatriates...Xiaohua, these accusations you make are very serious. You must not talk nonsense. There must be evidence!" At that time, Mo Shangtong's voice came from behind President Chen. He, Dong Zegang, and Tang Senzhi had already entered the bank and were walking this way.
