Chapter 1648: Chapter 1647: Having Money Makes All the Difference
Just then, Ye Wenjun and Fang Yu had just walked out and saw that the lobby manager was still there. Fang Yu walked right up.
"Manager, help me open an account card!"
"Open a card!?"
The logic here was exactly the same as on Earth. As long as a customer was willing to open a card and deposit money, as the lobby manager he would get a corresponding performance commission, which counted as extra income for him. By rights he should be extremely proactive, but the lobby manager merely gave him a bland glance.
He again confirmed there wasn’t any gold accessory on him, and that ordinary outfit of his looked practically like beggar’s clothes.
"Sir, opening an account card here requires you to deposit money. If it’s an empty card, we won’t process it."
"The whole point of opening the card is to deposit money. With you saying that, are you insulting your own IQ?"
From his expression and eyes, Fang Yu already caught a hint of attitude. This dog-blood scenario of judging people by appearance that you only see on Earth, he hadn’t expected to run into it here as well.
"Sir, please respect my position. I am the lobby manager of this bank."
"Sorry, I’m the customer here. Please respect my position and open a Storage Card for me."
"I just said, according to our bank’s rules, if you don’t deposit money, we will not issue a savings card. Please understand, sir!"
"You really are this bank’s lobby manager?"
"The genuine article."
"Here’s some sincere advice: I suggest you go to an eye hospital on your Main Planet and get your eyes checked properly. Wenjun, let’s go to the bank next door."
Those words did manage to get under the lobby manager’s skin.
After all, he was one of the main people in charge of business at this bank. Being mocked like this by a beggar-looking customer naturally made him unhappy.
As Fang Yu and Ye Wenjun walked out,
the lobby manager couldn’t hold back and snapped back.
"If you’ve got no money, what are you pretending for here? Even if you wanted to deposit, I wouldn’t open one for you. Go somewhere else, you’re not welcome here!"
Hearing that, Ye Wenjun was naturally a bit angry. She wanted to turn back and teach this lobby manager a lesson, but Fang Yu dragged her away.
"No need to stoop to his level. We’re here to deposit our own money."
"Mm."
When they were outside, Ye Wenjun was usually very obedient and well-behaved.
The two of them went to the bank next door. Anyway, this whole row was banks, all very close together and in competition with each other.
As soon as they walked in, someone came up to greet them.
"What service would you two like to handle?"
"Open a savings card."
"Alright, take a number and get your ID ready, just line up over there."
They took a queue number and found that there were only three people in front of them. The two of them, with their documents in hand, walked over to another window and waited for a bit,
and before long, it was their turn.
Fang Yu went to the counter.
"Sir, how much would you like to deposit to open the savings card?"
"Help me open two cards first. As for how much, I’m not really sure. I also have a Storage Card here; I need to withdraw all the money from it and transfer it into this card."
"Sir, you want to open two cards?"
"That’s right."
That previous savings card ultimately belonged to someone else. Even though it had money and he’d been given the password, it still wasn’t his. Luckily, for the Divine Race, transfer only required a password. It wasn’t that complicated. So it was better to withdraw it early.
The customer service staff quickly processed and issued the two cards.
Fang Yu handed over his savings card.
The staff member took the card and swiped it.
"Please enter your password."
Fang Yu entered the password on the machine. He of course couldn’t see the computer screen, but the staff could. So once the confirmation was clicked and a beep sounded,
the staff member saw the balance on the screen.
His eyes instantly widened, his lips parted, and he looked like he was about to cry from excitement.
He’d worked his whole life and had never seen so much money.
He was stunned on the spot, silently counting the zeros displayed. After a moment, he finally figured out how much it was.
He was dumbfounded, completely dazed.
"Hello!?"
Fang Yu’s voice pulled him out of his state of shock.
The staff member hurriedly collected himself and apologized.
"Sir, you really intend to withdraw all of it?"
"Withdraw it all and transfer it into this card, then transfer another 20% into the other card."
"Alright, sir, please wait a moment."
This time the staff member’s attitude became extremely respectful.
But he suddenly felt something was off; directly handling it like this didn’t seem quite appropriate, so he immediately got up and went to the back.
"Sir, please wait a moment. Because the amount you’re dealing with is quite large, I don’t have the authority to process it."
For an amount on this level, it usually required another person to press a Hand Seal to cooperate with the process.
The staff member went into the back office.
"Director, there’s a very important customer here. Please come out for a moment."
"What important customer? I’m very busy today. Whatever it is, handle it yourself!"
"No, no, Director, this is the most important customer we’ve had today. You really must come."
"Get lost, what could be more important than the task we’re working on right now? Do you know that if our deposits don’t hit the target this month, all your salaries are getting docked?"
"Director, just come take a look and you’ll understand!" The staff member insisted that the director come out.
Director Yang looked up. This employee was usually very well-behaved and had never acted like this before. Could there really be something special? After thinking about it, he still got up and walked out of the office.
Although he was a bit reluctant, he had to force a smile once he was outside.
When he stepped into the teller area, his smile grew even more ingratiating.
"Director, here’s what’s going on."
The employee went over the whole situation.
"Isn’t it just opening two cards? Just process them for him. Why are you asking me?"
"No, look at the computer screen!" The staff member was pointing at the balance on the computer screen.
When Director Yang saw the numbers there, he froze for a moment as well.
He suspected he was seeing things and quickly rubbed his eyes. Once he confirmed that the number was correct, he was instantly stunned.
His whole person became a bit dazed.
He’d been worried sick about deposit figures lately, and now, in one go, the target was more than covered. Of course he was utterly shocked.
"S–sir, you’re the one opening the savings card!?"
"That’s me."
"Alright, sir, I’ll be personally serving you from here on out. Starting now you will receive our bank’s top VIP service!"
"Top VIP?"
"Yes. Any customer with a deposit of over one hundred million enjoys top VIP service."
"Oh. Then hurry up and get it done for me."
"I’ll process it for you immediately, right away!"
