People entered the main hall, where four cash withdrawal counters were opened. Those withdrawing money could see stacks of cash behind the iron bars. Most people had never seen so much money in their entire lives, and many couldn't help but swallow nervously.
It was a clear message: there was plenty of money. This was the bank's confidence on display.
Many people thought to themselves:
"If only one of those stacks were mine."
"No, even just one bundle."
"No, even one wad."
"Even if just one wad of cash were mine, I could live comfortably for six months."
Withdrawals and deposits were handled without pause, and if there were large sums of thousands or tens of thousands, a manager would personally escort the customer to a VIP room for special service.
Everything was progressing in an orderly manner.
The situation was well under control.
