Chapter-2

She thought why not get the about fifty tola gold ornaments lying in the safe of the house shined? Thinking this, she called the jeweler to his flat. Kanta Shrimali, who lives in a duplex, heard a similar sound. She called one of the ladies making noise to his house to get the jewelry polished. Maya Chandani lived in a five-room house a little ahead of Kanta Shrimali’s house. She also heard the voice of the jeweler and called the young man who was roaming around calling for his gold bangles to be polished. In about half an hour, the gold polishers made the jewelry of these three housewives look like new. All three became very happy. She took good care of the jewelers and paid them handsome wages. At night, when Raghuraj Tripathi, Neelam Shrimali, and Sudhir Chandani came home after completing their respective tasks, all three housewives were in a very good mood and showed them their shining jewelry. The three men were stunned to see the jewels shining. However, Sudhir Chandani definitely advised Maya that she should have avoided displaying the jewelry kept in the house. Maya cut him off by saying that she has a broad gauge locker installed in her house which is quite safe.

A month passed slowly. Then came the dark moonless night. As the night deepened in Jahangirabad, silence started spreading. Tired residents were sleeping in their homes. It was around midnight that six black shadows jumped and entered the colony, taking the support of the trees behind the colony. Unaware of this incident, both the guards of the colony were sleeping outside the main gate. These shadows soon divided into groups of two and entered the houses of Tripathi, Shrimali, and Chandani. They threatened these people with weapons and looted all the gold ornaments kept in the locker. The men of all three families tried to resist but they had nothing to do with these goons. After committing the robbery along with the assault, these goons disappeared in the same way they had come. After the goons left, there was an uproar in the entire colony. Tripathi, Shrimali, and Chandani reached the police station to file a report after facing the guards of the colony. TI Ramendra Pratap listened to them carefully and sent all three back after assuring them of strict action against the robbers.

Along with the news, rumors also spread and gave sleepless nights to the residents of Jahangirabad. Now they became worried about the safety of themselves and their gold. They began to feel that keeping gold in their homes was like inviting trouble. In such a situation, two or three families thought it appropriate to make a fixed deposit of the amount received by selling the gold. So seven-eight people kept their gold in the locker in JSM Bank. But most of the families found it appropriate to take a loan in the name of gold. It should be repaid in three years. The gold will also be safe in the locker of Smooth Gold Finance Company and the amount received as loan will be used in any kind of risk-free investment or in purchasing a plot etc. In this way, there will be laddus in both hands. Gold will also be protected. The money received by mortgaging gold items will also be put to good use. After this, hundreds of applications for gold loans came to the branch of the finance company.
