There will be a Big Six Banks business counter in Big Three Exchanges. Financial investors in the exchange often have capital needs. When they leave here and go to the bank, and then come back with the receipt, the soup may be cold.

Standing in front of the Sheng Hua Bank counter, the Sheng Hua Bank teller glanced at him and then looked away, with a formal smile on his face, but there was only fatigue in his eyes.

Working on an exchange is a high-intensity job, and you cannot make mistakes. If you make a mistake, you will be dismissed from your job, and at worst, you will be held legally responsible and compensated for losses.

There are two types of people who will be arranged here, those with a background and those without a background.

People with background skills will become managers of the exchange's business department. They only need to reconcile accounts once every night to easily complete their duties, and get at least an excellent evaluation. In addition, having served in such a key position, they can easily get promotion opportunities.

As for those who have no background, they are now in front of the agent.

The broker opened the suitcase and turned it around. There were neatly arranged bonds inside.

Red, green, and purple are the main colors of these bonds. Each one has the same pattern printed on it. In the middle of the bond, there is a very conspicuous "100". These are all bonds with a denomination of one hundred yuan. According to the instructions on the back of the bond, the holder can now go to the bank to redeem it at the announced ratio when it was issued that year, but it is obvious that it has no value.

The counter salesperson looked at the box full of bonds, about 200,000 yuan, and was a little confused. "Sir, I don't quite understand what you mean?" She began to concentrate and changed her sitting position.

The broker sighed, "I want to cash in these bonds!"

The girl sitting behind the counter had a strange expression. She shook her head, "Sorry sir, we have already issued an announcement. Shenghua does not accept agency cashing or exchange services for overseas bonds. You can go and take a look."

The counter clerk at another bank not far away curled her lips and expressed appropriate disdain for this kind of kicking the ball. Of course, she would do the same later.

The broker did not leave immediately, but pressed his hands on the counter and leaned forward, "Listen, this is related to the safety of my wife and children. These bonds also come from your bank..."

This batch of bonds was sold by a company commissioned by Shenghua as a broker, and the other party gave them a rebate of 7% of the face value.

To put it simply, for every one million bonds sold by the broker's company, they can get a handling fee of 70,000 yuan from Sheng Hua Bank. At the same time, they can also get a handling fee of no less than 2% from the buyer. The two sides add up to about 10%.

When customers need to sell these bonds, they can also receive a bilateral handling fee of no less than 2%, which is no less than 4% of the total transaction sum.

The more trades you make, the more commissions financial companies get, which is why they encourage their customers to try more and keep letting them buy and sell stock securities.

But they do not need to bear any risks, and they may not need to bear even a little loss related to risks in any sense.

This is also the reason why there are more and more financial companies in Bu Peien in recent years. As long as you own Trading Seat, you are not afraid that those who want to make money in the stock market will not join them.

Ordinary people do not have priority in trading. If Financial Market was not developed or prosperous in previous years, they could still trade normally. Now at this time, transaction matching only occurs in Trading Seat. They have no other option except to sign up and become customers of financial companies.

With customers, financial companies will become the most valued partners of securities firms and banks, thereby continuously gaining more and more profits.

In fact, Little Yellow Sheet and the first listing are similar. The issuer needs to give more rebates to these financial companies to let them recommend those stocks in order to obtain the myth that the market value can be doubled on the first day of listing.

As for what will happen in the future, that is another matter. The fact that the "legal fraud" system of financial companies can still be at its peak today without any danger of collapse is enough to make people understand that they have already had a complete set of plans to deal with ordinary people.

It's just that this time, the thorn in the side of the agent identified him. No matter how he explained his innocence, Frank wouldn't listen. He only recognized his agent - "You asked me to buy it, I'm only looking for you!"

The salesperson shook his head, "Sir, you know I'm just an ordinary salesperson. I decided not to make such a level decision. If you have time to embarrass me here, why not think of other ways."

"Also, if your family is in danger, I suggest you call Nai Wan Wan."

The broker closed the suitcase in disappointment. In fact, he knew there would be such a result from the beginning. How could an economy at the level of a bank pay attention to a worthless little broker like him? But it's one thing to know, it's another thing to feel this disregard personally.

He cursed and carried the box to their company's "Trading Hall". On the eighth floor of Yi Kou Exchange, they rented half a floor to use as the company's brand name.

Some important contracted customers sometimes have the urge to go to the site to take a look, and they will arrange people here. There will also be a public notice board here, and it will continue to scroll, synchronizing with the public notice board in the trading hall.

If customers want to experience a more direct sense of actual trading, they can also go and stand on the edge of the trading floor and watch the wonderful scenes of traders who are constantly waving their arms and roaring while manually matching in the wide Trading Hall.

The market has not yet opened in the morning, and only the cleaners are doing the final cleaning work in the room. The people who can come here are large investors who have opened accounts in their company and have more than 100,000 yuan in capital for operation. Of course, these people will enjoy better treatment.

The agent walked directly into the manager's office with a cold face. The manager was a little surprised by his arrival, but he was very enthusiastic.

The broker is an important business manager of this financial company. As he told Frank, he has as many friends as Frank in his address book, which has given him a lot of opportunities and wealth.

"What's the matter?" The manager put down his work and looked at him with a smile.

The agent pursed his lips and said, "I ran into a little trouble."

"Speak out and I'll listen. Maybe I can give you some suggestions?" The manager still remained very close.

The broker told everything that happened to him, including the fact that Frank frantically held his family hostage last night, and demanded that he convert the bonds into cash and deposit them into his account again.

At the end of the sentence, the broker almost begged the manager, "After all, we sold these bonds to him. We will not suffer any loss by canceling this transaction. We can also eat Frank's three percent handling fee from the canceled transaction..."

The more he talked, the more he felt it made sense, "Maybe it's okay for our losses to be deducted from Frank's account. No, that's what we should do!"

The manager kept smiling while watching the agent think. When he had finished speaking, the manager pointed to the door, "I suggest you leave my office immediately and call the police. What you said is impossible."

"You have to understand that once the transaction occurs, there will be no such operation as 'withdrawal', and the bank will not agree to our doing so. By then, the bond will only fall into our own hands."

"When others know about these things, more and more people will cause trouble for us. How will we deal with it then?"

When he said this, his tone became slightly calmer, "Frank, the most important thing you should do now is call the police. The police will help you solve all this. Do you need my help?"

The manager picked up the phone and pressed a finger on the dial. Frank's expression became even uglier.

In fact, he knew very well that it was not yet the time for final settlement. In other words, even if the bonds of Frank returned to the pool, it would not affect the final changes, but the company refused to do so.

Frank's face had become very ugly, but the manager's words immediately extinguished all the flames of his anger.

"Frank, you have made a lot of money over the years. Around two hundred thousand is not too difficult for you. Why don't you try to deal with him yourself?" The manager's words were like poison biting Frank's heart.

His face instantly turned pale.

Frank still has about 300,000 yuan in funds flowing in his account. He also trades in stocks, but he is much smarter than his clients. He is the kind of person who occasionally has inside information.

He will not take action before getting accurate information. Once he takes action, he will definitely gain something.

Of course there will be some losses sometimes, but overall we are always making money.

He bought a big house, a luxurious car, and enjoyed a comfortable life, all based on the laughter and pain of some people.

Now what the manager said made him feel tormented inside. Of course his family is the most important thing, but so is his money!

The manager knew that his words had an effect. He put down the phone and comforted, "Maybe you should think about it again. I saw that there are only about 200,000 bonds here. Can you take out this money and spend it in exchange for the safety of your family, or call the police and let the police handle it? The choice is up to you, but don't take the company's idea!"

The confused broker didn't even know how he left the office. He stood outside Yi Kou Exchange. At this time, the opening was approaching, and a large number of social elites dressed similarly to him began to pour into the exchange from all directions.

Things that used to excite people were now lifeless, making him feel uncomfortable and suffocated.

Ten minutes later, Frank appeared in front of Police Station. He chose to call the police, and a large number of reporters came because he told some media he knew that he wanted to drop a big bomb.

He was just an innocent poor person who was implicated. The company clearly had the means but was unwilling to help him. The bank clearly didn't care about the bond issue, but they watched him go to despair.

Then let's finish playing together!

But at least, he kept his money and there was a slight possibility that he could solve the problem!
