Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chapter 1038 Coming one after another

Director Wu also realized that Chen Changan's family was not easy to deal with.

When Chen Changan's sister was arrested, she did not cry or make a fuss, and was very cooperative.

Now seeing Chen Changan coming, his expression immediately changed, and he opened his mouth to ask for millions of Hong Kong dollars, which made Director Wu tremble with fear.

After hearing what Director Wu said, Xiujuan immediately looked at Chen Changan, waiting for Chen Changan to express his opinion.

At this moment, a jeep rushed directly into the yard and stopped suddenly in front of everyone.

Then a leader from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs opened the car door and stepped out. He immediately understood the situation.

"Deputy Director Chen is here too? If I had known you were here, I wouldn't have made this trip."

Chen Changan has the highest rank at the scene, so no matter what the matter is, he has to be greeted.

"Leader Zhou is here? Are you looking for Director Wu for something? If it's urgent, then you can go first."

"If Deputy Director Chen is not in a hurry, I'll talk to Director Wu first."

Seeing Chen Changan nodded, Leader Zhou said to Director Wu.

"Did you arrest a well-known Hong Kong director named Chan Hsiu-kwan?"

As soon as Leader Zhou finished speaking, Director Wu immediately showed a wry smile.

Catching Chen Xiujuan was like stirring up a hornet's nest. These people kept coming in waves, endlessly.

I had just dealt with Chen Changan, and before I knew whether the two sides could reach an agreement, someone from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came again.

Looking at Director Wu's expression, Leader Zhou knew that the person must have been arrested.

"Why are you arresting people?"

Director Wu said with a wry smile.

"Deputy Minister Zhou, if I say we accidentally arrested the wrong person, I wonder if you would believe me."

Leader Zhou frowned and immediately started scolding.

"What are you guys doing here? You can even arrest the wrong person?

Do you know how much influence Director Chen has in Hong Kong Island?

Do you think Hong Kong Island is the same as ours? You dare to arrest anyone?

In Hong Kong Island, those media people will do anything to attract attention, gain traffic and make money.

Once they knew that Director Chen was arrested for no reason in Beijing, they would probably make a big fuss about it immediately.

By then, our crotches will be filled with yellow mud, which will be shit if not shit.

Do you know how much international impact this will have on our country?

All the efforts made by our Ministry of Foreign Affairs in recent years have been in vain. Can you afford this responsibility?

Don’t say anything more. As long as there is no big problem, let him go immediately.

Before things get out of hand, we should quickly make a big deal out of a small matter, or a small matter out of hand."

Director Wu pointed at Xiujuan and said.

"This is the Director Chen you mentioned. We have realized our mistake and have released him.

But she asked us to compensate her for her bag, saying it would cost five thousand dollars.

Our bureau can’t come up with such a large sum of money right now.”

Xiujuan immediately said unconvinced.

"Let me be clear, it doesn't sound like I'm trying to blackmail you.

It was during the search that you damaged the Hermès bag I bought a few days ago.

In Hong Kong Island, a genuine Hermès bag costs US$7,000. If you don’t believe me, let me show you the invoice.

It’s only $5,000 now, I’m not kidding.”

Leader Zhou frowned as he took one look at the lady's handbag still thrown on the front of the pickup truck.

As the leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he naturally knows more about foreign countries.

Hermès is a luxury product, so the price mentioned by Chen Xiujuan is naturally true.

But five thousand dollars is not a small amount of money, and one person naturally cannot come up with it. But if public funds are used to pay the compensation, what should I do with the bag?

Even if there is compensation, it can't be their Ministry of Foreign Affairs that pays it, right?

This matter seems to be stuck here. Several units can't even afford to compensate the other person for a bag. It's a bit embarrassing to say.

But individuals cannot afford to pay for it. Every penny in the unit has a place to go. The annual allocation from the superiors is not enough. Who dares to spend it recklessly?

At this time, another jeep drove into the compound, and Deputy Director Liu also arrived.

Now Deputy Director Liu has also been promoted, and his rank is on par with Chen Changan and Leader Zhou.

He also frowned when he saw the situation at the scene.

"Director Wu, I called you several times in a row, and after thinking it over, I decided to come over.

Patriots like Director Chen Xiujuan cannot be arrested casually."

Director Wu saw that more and more people were coming, and he didn't know who would come next if he continued like this.

So he gritted his teeth and said to Chen Changan.

"Director Chen, you know the situation in our bureau, we really don't have $5,000.

Do you think this is okay? We will compensate you, but we need to convert it into RMB. Is that okay with you?

Several leaders who were familiar with the situation at the scene curled their lips at the same time.

According to the official exchange rate, one US dollar is now worth about 3.7 yuan.

The total compensation is more than 18,000 yuan, but as long as you have US dollars, you can exchange them on the black market, and one US dollar can easily be exchanged for eight RMB.

However, even if calculated at 3.70 yuan, more than 18,000 yuan is still a huge loss for Director Wu.

Director Wu might have paid for this money out of his own pocket, otherwise it would be difficult to pass the audit.

Xiujuan looked at Chen Changan and nodded, then jumped off the front of the car, opened the door of the pickup truck, put the things in the bag into the car, then walked to Director Wu and handed the Hermès bag to Director Wu.

"Forget it, RMB is RMB, I'll be staying in Beijing for a few days anyway.

Just think of it as going to the bank to exchange RMB. But Director Wu, when I return to Hong Kong Island, I won't take the initiative to tell you about what happened today, but if any media friends ask, I won't lie. "

Director Wu felt really down in his heart during these few times. Not only was he not paid compensation, but he was also tricked.

At this time, Leader Zhou quickly said.

"Oh, my great Director Chen, I believe you can handle the Hong Kong media.

You are such a big director and you earn so much money every year, so don't bother with us.

Director Chen, please help persuade them. The country's image has been affected, which is not a good thing for us.

Now that Director Wu has agreed to pay compensation, let's let this matter go for my sake.

I believe that after this incident, Director Wu will never arrest anyone again. What do you think?"

Director Wu was also unlucky. He just wanted to help Director Zou, but he didn't expect things to turn out like this. Now that Leader Zhou was helping to persuade him, he naturally had to express his position.

He quickly stepped forward and spoke to Chen Changan.

"Director Chen, I was confused this time. I was deceived by certain people. I will never get involved in such things again."
