Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 2161: Take money and run away

I thought that my second brother was just borrowing 500 million to help with emergencies, but Cheng Huanran didn't take it seriously. Who knew that he would come to borrow it again two days later?
"What's wrong?" Cheng Huanran asked, "What happened?"

Xue Yang hesitated: "The partner of the company... took the money and ran away."

"What?!" Cheng Huanran was startled and asked: "Who is it? Aren't the three of you a partnership? Are you involved in the money? How much money are involved?"

Xue Yang's face looked a little bad, and his chin was full of stubble that he had no time to take care of or had no intention of taking care of.

"It has always been a partnership between three people... Lao Zhao, do you know him? It's that bastard Lao Zhao! He has always been in charge of the financial side, and I've been in charge of sales. It turns out that he has been making false accounts since the middle of this year, secretly He siphoned off the company’s funds, got rid of the money at the end of the year, and ran away without a trace.”

Cheng Huanran frowned and asked: "Your company is not small, how come you didn't find out at all in advance? It is impossible for such a large company to be completely leak-free and without any trace!"

Although he is not a financial accountant, he has managed pharmaceutical groups for many years.He knows exactly where the goods are going and how the money is going.

Xue Yang frowned and explained: "We have cooperated for many years and have always been close friends who trust each other. Occasionally, we found something abnormal, but we didn't suspect it. We held a Double Eleven promotion and bought a lot of advertising. We made a good profit at that time. Later, I also made some money on Double Twelve. I thought I had sufficient funds, but from that time on, the factory and colleagues’ salaries gradually stopped getting money from the Finance Department. At first, Lao Zhao said he was upgrading the system and withdrawing money. We needed to slow down, but we didn’t take it seriously, we just urged him to be quick. Who knew that at the end of the year... he would go missing, and no one could be found at first, and all the money in the company’s books was wiped out. .”

"You guys are too careless!" Cheng Huanran understood the problem as soon as he heard this: "The company can't pay out money, how can it be excused with just a random excuse! It's impossible for him in the finance department to cover the sky with one hand, right? There must be him companion!"

Xue Yang scratched his hair irritably and whispered: "An accountant... was his mistress. He and she both disappeared at the same time."

"Did you call the police?" Cheng Huanran frowned and asked, "Where did the person go? How much money was involved?"

Xue Yang shook his head: "You can't call the police. The exact amount is still being calculated, because some data have been permanently deleted by them... The current estimate is about more than [-] million."

"Why?" Cheng Huanran asked: "When such a big thing happened, how could you not call the police? If you didn't call the police, how could you catch him?"

Xue Yang scratched his hair in embarrassment and whispered: "Part of the company's accounts are fake accounts... If found out, the company's reputation will be ruined and it will be completely ruined."

Cheng Huanran looked at him and asked, "Fake accounts? Which accounts are fake? How long has it been? How long has it been going on?"

"Last year." Xue Yang hesitated: "Old Zhao lied to us and said that some data should be made more beautiful, which would be good for the company's listing in the future. We said no at first, and we would do it anyway. But he got angry and said that the company We must take the road of going public in the future, and we must be prepared in advance. He is a professional in finance, and we don’t know much about it, so we leave it all to him. Until I checked carefully these days, I found out that the company’s accounts are really This is very problematic...if this secret cannot be kept, the company will be completely destroyed!"

Cheng Huanran was dumbfounded and asked: "The company can't continue to operate, and its accounts are in a mess. How do you expect it to have a good future?"

Xue Yang's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he whispered: "Brother, you don't understand... The company started from scratch and grew little by little. It is our hard work... We can't give up like this!"

"Calm down." Cheng Huanran sat him down and poured him a cup of strong tea. "Don't be anxious. Tell me the current situation of the company first." Xue Yang took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Brother, at first I thought we should call the police immediately, but Xiao Jin disagreed. He said that once the police were called, the affair between Lao Zhao and Xiao San would definitely be exposed. Lao Zhao is his brother-in-law, and he was not trying to protect Lao Zhao, but He was worried that his sister would not be able to bear it. His sister was in her 40s and pregnant with her second child. She found that her heart was not good a while ago and was currently being treated conservatively in the hospital while raising the fetus. He was worried that his sister would find out about this after calling the police. At that time, one person and two people might die. He didn't dare to take the risk, hoping to wait until his sister gave birth successfully next spring and then deal with the matter."

Cheng Huanran frowned and whispered: "What are these things..."

Xue Yang sighed helplessly and explained: "We have hired a private detective to find the whereabouts of Lao Zhao. Currently, Xiao Jin lied to his sister that Lao Zhao was on a business trip abroad."

Cheng Huanran thought for a while and asked: "How much money is owed on the books now? You can't spend money to fill a big hole on impulse or because you are starting a business for the first time. What if you can't save it? Have you thought about it?"

"...Currently we owe tens of millions." Xue Yang explained: "I dare not touch a large amount. The main reason is that the company's employees cannot be in arrears for too long, and the wages and bonuses must be paid first. Many employees have to pay With a house and a car, life is very stressful, so you have to appease them first and then think of other solutions.”

Cheng Huanran did not agree with him continuing to spend money to save the situation, and said: "Let's clarify the amount first, which ones are fake and which ones are real, and sort them out one by one. He may have decided early on to make a run for it, or maybe even I’ve dug a lot of holes for you.”

Xue Yang couldn't help but explain: "I plan to settle the salary at the end of the year, retain employees first, and maintain the basic operation of the company. After the New Year, we will secretly clear up the accounts and then discuss what to do."

"What did the other partner say?" Cheng Huanran asked.

Xue Yang replied: "He took out his savings over the years and sold his car. He also thought that he should stabilize the company first, maintain basic operations, and see if he can survive."

Cheng Huanran couldn't help but ask: "How much is left?"

"More than a million." Xue Yang replied: "We also have to pay for water, electricity and heating bills, and the rest will be paid out as salary and bonuses. Xiao Jin paid several million back and forth, which is less than me, but he really tried his best. .”

For Cheng Huanran, 100 million is not a big sum.

"Okay, let's settle the employees first." Cheng Huanran said: "I will ask my assistant to give you 100 million later. Remember, employees' wages must be paid back sooner or later, but other holes cannot be filled indiscriminately, do you understand?"

Xue Yang was very confused and nodded: "Thank you, brother. I...I'm afraid that my parents will worry, and I'm afraid that Xiaoxiao will know, so I'm only telling you now."

Cheng Huanran understood what he meant and said: "Don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense. But the premise is that you can handle this crisis, otherwise others will know sooner or later."

"I hope I can bear it." Xue Yang murmured.
