~9 min read 1,642 words

Qin Ze was almost deafened by the voice on the other end of the phone.

Qin Ze's mother's tone was full of worry:

"Zeze, are you under stress? You silly child, don't do anything rash..."

Qin Ze interrupted her.

"Mom! I really won the lottery, otherwise how would I have the money to transfer to you?"

"Besides, this lottery isn't..."

Another silence.

Qin Shougang's voice rang out again, this time much more serious:

"You really won the lottery?"

"If I'm lying, I'm not a Qin!" Qin Ze swore a solemn oath.

On the other end of the phone, Qin Shougang seemed to believe it a little.

"How much did you win?" he asked.

Qin Ze thought for a moment and casually reported a number:

"Five million?"

He didn't dare say too much, fearing he would scare his parents.

The figure of five million was enough to make his parents believe he had money, without making them think he was involved in illegal activities.

"Fi-five million?!" Qin Shougang's voice went out of tune.

Zhao Fang also exclaimed.

Qin Ze could imagine his parents' shocked expressions on the other end of the phone.

"Dad, Mom, don't get excited."

Qin Ze said hurriedly:

"I've already planned this money, part for investment, part for savings."

Qin Shougang took a deep breath, and then his tone became extremely friendly, even flattering:

"Son, Dad has an idea."

"What idea?"

"I want to retire early."

Qin Ze was stunned: "What?"

Facing his own father's extremely gentle tone!

For the first time in his life, Qin Ze felt a distance between himself and his father!

Could it be that the jokes on the internet were all true!

If one day you strike it rich, even your own father will be polite to you.

"I'm working as a technician in the factory now, making over four thousand a month, working myself to death."

Qin Shou's attitude at this moment was so good that Qin Ze doubted life.

"Since you have money, Dad doesn't want to work anymore, I want to retire early and enjoy life. Son, do you have any objections?"

Qin Ze finally understood his father's meaning.

"That's true, with your health, it's time to retire, you can just submit your retirement report."

"Starting this month, I will transfer your living expenses to you on time every month."

Qin Shougang was happy on the spot:

"Good! I'll go resign tomorrow!"

"By the way, when are you coming back?" Qin Shougang asked again.

"Now that you've struck it rich, I have to show off properly! Let those who looked down on our family before see!"

Qin Ze smiled.

He understood his father's little thoughts.

Qingshui County wasn't big; whatever happened in any family would spread quickly.

Qin Ze's family's conditions were average before, and they were often talked about behind their backs.

Now that he had money, it was normal for his father to want to hold his head high.

"Next weekend, then." Qin Ze said, "I'll go back to see you."

"Good! Good!" Qin Shougang said repeatedly, "I'll have your mom prepare the dishes you love!"

After chatting for a few more sentences, Qin Ze hung up the phone.

Qingshui County, Qin Family.

Qin Shougang put down his phone, the excitement on his face hadn't faded yet.

Zhao Fang was a bit worried:

"Old Qin, do you think Zeze's money really came from winning the lottery?"

"Otherwise?"

Qin Shougang lit a cigarette.

"Don't you know our son? He hasn't lied since he was a child."

"And if he really did something illegal, could he transfer money to us so openly?"

Zhao Fang thought about it, and that made sense.

"However..." Qin Shougang blew a smoke ring and suddenly said, "Our son probably broke up with that girl surnamed Zhou."

"How do you know that?"

"I'm his father, I'm sure of it." Qin Shougang said.

"If our son was still with that girl, would he honor us the first thing after winning the lottery?"

Zhao Fang thought about it, and it was true.

She had seen that girl Zhou Ying twice, and she didn't look like someone who lived a steady life.

But as parents, they were embarrassed to say it directly.

"If you ask me, we should introduce a reliable woman to our son." Qin Shougang stubbed out his cigarette.

Zhao Fang's eyes lit up:

"Hey, don't say that, what about the girl from Old Zhao's family next door who was in high school with Zeze, you know her, right?"

"I heard she's coming back from studying abroad next week, and she plans to develop in Jiangcheng!"

"The girl from Old Zhao's family?" Qin Shougang remembered, "Zhao Yutong?"

"Right! I've seen that girl, she's pretty, highly educated, and has a good personality."

Zhao Fang became more excited as she spoke.

"It's a perfect match!"

Qin Shougang slapped his thigh:

"Old Zhao is useless, but his daughter is indeed good! She can be my daughter-in-law!"

He stood up and paced around the room a few times.

"That's it, I'm going to buy a bottle of Moutai, I must win over Old Zhao today!"

Hanging up the phone, Qin Ze sat in the car, a smile still hanging on his lips.

He knew his father's little thoughts too well.

In a small place like Qingshui County, when a child succeeds, parents wish the whole city knew.

Qin Ze's family's conditions were average before, and his father had received plenty of gossip from others.

Now that he had money, it was human nature for his father to want to show off.

Qin Ze shook his head and started the car.

He still had over a million in cash in his hands, and keeping it in a bank card wasn't the right thing to do.

The last time he went to the bank, the teller's attitude made him very uncomfortable, and that card had a limit.

"Need to change banks."

Qin Ze muttered to himself.

He glanced at the time, 3:30 PM, one hour before the bank closed.

There happened to be a Jiangcheng Bank branch nearby.

Qin Ze turned on his turn signal and turned the car around.

Jiangcheng Bank Binjiang Road Sub-branch.

This was a small branch.

Qin Ze parked the car on the side of the road and walked into the bank.

There weren't many people in the lobby, and both counters were open.

A middle-aged woman was handling business at the window, an old man was waiting next to her, and a young girl was withdrawing money at the self-service machine.

Qin Ze walked to the counter.

"Hello, what business are you here for?" the female teller asked without looking up.

"Deposit money," Qin Ze said.

"How much?"

Qin Ze paused:

"About a million."

The female teller looked up abruptly, her eyes wide.

"Ho-how much?"

"About a million," Qin Ze repeated.

The female teller was stunned for a few seconds and hurriedly stood up:

"Please wait a moment, I'll call the manager immediately!"

She picked up the phone on the desk and pressed a few keys:

"Manager Zhang, there's a client here who wants to deposit over a million!"

Less than a minute after hanging up the phone, a middle-aged man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked over quickly.

"Hello, sir! I'm the manager here, my surname is Zhang."

Manager Zhang was all smiles and handed over his business card with both hands.

"You're here to handle a deposit, right? Please come this way, let's talk in detail in the VIP room!"

Qin Ze took the business card and followed Manager Zhang inside.

Passing through a door, inside was an exquisitely decorated room.

Leather sofa, mahogany coffee table, calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and green plants in the corner.

"Please sit, sir!" Manager Zhang pulled out a chair, "Xiao Liu, pour some tea!"

The female teller from before hurriedly brought a cup of tea and placed it in front of Qin Ze.

"What is your surname, sir?" Manager Zhang asked.

"Surname Qin."

"Mr. Qin, I heard you want to deposit over a million?"

Manager Zhang rubbed his hands, his eyes shining.

"Right," Qin Ze nodded, "but I have other needs."

"Go ahead! Go ahead!"

Qin Ze took a sip of tea:

"I have a few cards in my hand now, the limits aren't enough, I want to apply for a few new cards."

"Also, my capital flow has been quite large recently, I need a dedicated account."

"No problem! Absolutely no problem!"

Manager Zhang patted his chest.

"Mr. Qin, if you transfer all your funds to our bank, I guarantee you the highest level of service!"

He paused and asked tentatively:

"May I ask, what kind of business is Mr. Qin in?"

"Investment, and also property leasing..." Qin Ze said casually.

Manager Zhang's eyes shone even brighter.

Investment! Apartments! This was a high-quality client!

"Mr. Qin is truly young and promising!"

He gave a thumbs up.

"How about this, I'll arrange a dedicated wealth manager for you, and in the future, if you have any needs, just find her directly!"

He picked up the phone on the desk:

"Xiao Jiang, come over here."

A few minutes later, the door was pushed open.

A young girl in professional attire walked in.

She looked to be twenty-five or twenty-six, with long hair draped over her shoulders, light makeup, a tall figure, and delicate features.

Hanging on her chest was a work badge—Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin's appearance gave Qin Ze the first impression of being clean and delicate.

"Manager Zhang, did you call for me?" Jiang Xin's voice was very pleasant.

"Xiao Jiang, this is Mr. Qin, an important client of our bank."

Manager Zhang introduced.

"Mr. Qin wants to deposit over a million in our bank, and from now on, you will be responsible for Mr. Qin's wealth management business."
