Couple hides 90,000 yuan in dustbin, loses all of it

Zhang Si and his wife Zhang Ying run a successful timber business in the city.

Late last month, Zhang Si brought home 90,000 yuan in cash after making a sale. Fearing the amount may get robbed, Zhang Ying put the cash in the dustbin.

The next day, before leaving for work, Zhang Si collected the rubbish bag and chucked it into a roadside bin.

The couple realized their blunder an hour later and rushed to the garbage dump, but failed to find the cash.
