Chapter 22 Jack's Suggestion

Tomna wanted to treat Jack to dinner. After thinking about it, Jack also called Old Tom. The three of them went to the restaurant that Harold had taken Jack to before. After entering, Jack observed the place first and then chose a private room at the very edge.

Tomna seemed very happy because the city branch had only given her a warning disciplinary action, and the matter of the fine was dropped.

Jack originally planned to put the meal on the account, but seeing Tomna's proud look, he deliberately ordered a few more expensive dishes and then asked Tomna to pay the bill.

Not using the buffer door according to the regulations is a very dangerous thing. Jack wanted her to remember this lesson.

When the three of them were having a good meal, somehow the topic turned to the buffer door. Tomna said, "Director Harold is really a genius to come up with the idea of the buffer door."

Jack glanced at her while peeling a shrimp and then said slowly, "The idea of the buffer door comes from the fact that when a submarine is underwater, divers can enter and exit the submarine. Think about it. When the submarine is underwater, opening the door will let water in. So, there is a separate space. After the diver enters, he closes the door he entered through and then opens the door leading to the sea. This is called a closed entry and exit."

Jack put the peeled big shrimp into his mouth, chewed it, and after swallowing it, he said, "The original access door of the savings office was a single door. When you entered and exited, it was easy for criminals to take advantage of the situation.

After it was changed to a buffer door, the single door became a double door. When you enter and exit, there is always one door closed, and criminals have no chance. Do you know that when our sub-branch was renovating the buffer door, a savings office in another place was taken advantage of by criminals when the tellers entered and exited. Two people died and one was injured, and more than one hundred thousand dollars were robbed."

Both of them were stunned when they heard this. They thought that the buffer door had been in use for so long, and this was the first time they had heard such things.

Jack added, "Money isn't the most important thing, but it's a pity that two people died."

Both of them nodded silently. Tomna also said, "Brother Jack, don't worry. I'll definitely pay attention in the future and never make such a mistake again."

Jack smiled and said, "You won't have the chance to make this mistake in the future."

Both of them were taken aback when they heard this. Old Tom was anxious and said, "Do you mean to transfer Tomna's position?"

Jack laughed and said, "You think too beautifully. Being a teller is so tiring. You still want a transfer. You really dare to think."

Tomna said, "Brother Jack, since it's not a transfer, then what do you mean—"

Jack smiled slightly and said, "I have officially submitted a proposal to the city branch, suggesting that a voice reminder device be installed on the buffer door. So, as long as you open one door and don't close it immediately, it will keep ringing."

Both of them were very happy when they heard this. Tomna quickly poured a glass of wine for Jack and said, "Brother Jack, I knew you were not simple. You actually came up with this idea."

However, Old Tom frowned while smiling. Looking at Jack, he suddenly said, "You just said that the idea of the buffer door comes from the entry and exit of personnel underwater in a submarine. Then let me ask you, do you think Harold has anything to do with a submarine?"

Jack didn't say anything. He knew that at this time Old Tom had already suspected that he was related to the idea of the buffer door. There were many books on Jack's desk, and quite a few of them were about military matters.

Moreover, there had always been a military magazine by Jack's bedside, and on the cover was a submarine sailing underwater.

Jack remained silent. Tomna was anxious. She exclaimed, "Director Harold's head is almost bald. Didn't they say that smart heads don't have much hair?"

Old Tom glared at her and said, "Don't interrupt when adults are talking."

Tomna glared back at him but didn't say anything more. At this time, Jack said slowly, "It doesn't matter whether Harold came up with it or not. The key is that with the buffer door, Tomna and the others are safe."

These words made the look in Tomna's eyes when she looked at Jack carry a lot of meaning.

Old Tom wasn't stupid. At this time, he had already guessed that the matter of the buffer door back then wasn't that simple, and there must be other hidden stories. But since Jack didn't say anything, he knew that it was useless to ask further.

"Brother, I toast you." After saying that, Old Tom drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

Jack also drank it in one gulp, then put down the wine cup and said, "Tomna's mistake this time made me realize that there are still flaws in the buffer door. So, it's very necessary to install a voice reminder device. That is to say, Tomna's mistake this time was valuable."

Tomna was a bit proud, but then she said shyly, "Brother Jack, I'll take what you just said as both criticism and encouragement. So, I'll toast you again."

Jack didn't raise his glass and said, "What's the point of a girl drinking so much wine? Don't drink anymore."

Tomna was anxious. She picked up the cup for Jack and exclaimed, "Do you look down on me? I won't stop until I get you drunk today."

Old Tom admired Jack in his heart. In addition, Jack had helped him make a lot of money recently, so he wanted to find an opportunity to thank Jack.

But Jack always made excuses that he had something to do. Old Tom always felt that it was a problem. With such an opportunity today, how could he let it go? So, when he heard Tomna say this, he joined in the fun and insisted that Jack have another glass of wine.

One glass was definitely not enough. In the end, the brother and sister carried Jack out of the restaurant.

May is the best time of the year in this city, and there are a lot of people on the street. The three of them walked on the street and everything seemed pleasing to the eye.

In fact, most of the time, people are emotional. When they are in a good mood, they can even find dog shit pleasing to the eye; when they are in a bad mood, nothing seems right.

All three of them were in a good mood. Although Tomna's mood was complicated, she was indeed in a good mood. Old Tom was even more so. Not only did he make a lot of money, but he also discovered Jack's talent.

And Jack was in a good mood because a matter that had been weighing on his mind had finally been truly let go.

Of course, Harold was an exception. What Harold would become in the future depended on himself. Jack was only responsible for pointing out a path for him. Whether he walked on it or not, Jack would definitely not force him.

The three of them chatted and walked in the direction of the Yellow Building—

The next day, Jack received a reply to his proposal.

As soon as Jack entered the office that day, Lucy said to him, "Director Li from the security department of the city branch called. He said that the leaders attach great importance to your suggestion and asked to implement it as soon as possible. The leaders will check the implementation situation as soon as possible."

Jack nodded and said, "Is that all?"

Lucy was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "What else do you want? A bonus? Or an award?"

"No, is that all Director Li said?"

"Oh, he also said that your sub-branch always produces such talented people and has made the buffer door so perfect."

Jack smiled and said, "That doesn't sound like something Director Li would say!"

Lucy also smiled and said, "That's what he meant. I just added a little of my own praise."

After saying that, both of them laughed.

After laughing, Jack made an internal call to Old Tom and asked him to go to the electronics city.
