Zhengjin Bank made full use of twenty days to purchase tickets on a large scale. With its abundant funds, it already had sufficient ammunition in its hands. These two Japanese were just pioneers, and there would be bigger plans later.
Nomura has long estimated that the cash and ocean funds that the industrial group can produce will not exceed 3 million, while Zhengjin Bank holds 4.5 million in votes. It can defeat Feng by itself.
votes, so he was confident.
Such was the situation, the people below were even more arrogant. The two Japanese who were ordered to come to run the bank were arrogant. When they saw the official bank staff repeatedly checking their currency, they immediately became angry.
"Despicable Chinese people, you are stalling for time, exchange it quickly, or I will go to the Governor's Mansion to sue you!"
At this time, the staff member walked up to Zhang Tinglan and whispered a few words. Zhang Tinglan already knew the situation and just nodded pretendingly, then looked at the two Japanese with a sneer.
"There's no need for you to go. I'm going to send you to jail now. How dare you use fake tickets to deceive people without even looking at where this place is!"
"You're talking nonsense. Our money is all real money. You can't cash it out. Are you using this despicable excuse?"
"You can tell whether it's true or not. I just ask you, is this money yours?"
"That's nature, not ours, who else could it be."
"Just admit it." Zhang Tinglan waved his hand, and several guards rushed up and pushed the two guys to the ground without saying a word. These Japanese people were used to being arrogant and indulgent. They were not willing to give in. They struggled desperately,
One side shouted loudly: "Despicable Chinese people, how dare you insult the dignity of Japan, you will all die!"
Zhang Tinglan sneered: "You are carrying a large amount of counterfeit currency in an attempt to defraud funds. This is an insult to Japan's dignity!"
The two men were still arguing. Zhang Tinglan winked and the guards held them down and removed their jaws. The two guys could only make whining sounds in their throats and could do nothing else.
Zhang Tinglan walked up to them, slapped away his slap, slapped the two guys left and right, and slapped them a dozen times, until their cheeks were swollen like a pig's head, and blood foam came out of the corners of his mouth.
"Japanese slaves, I tell you, if you dare to say the word "China" in the future, you will be destroyed!"
There was a bone-chilling chill in Zhang Tinglan's tone, like a sharp sword, piercing the hearts of these two Japanese people. The word "China" represents the most unbearable history. The greatest humiliation of an ancient and glorious nation is condensed in
These two guys, if they dare to use this scornful name in front of Zhang Tinglan, are undoubtedly looking for death!
The guards dragged the Japanese who were dizzy after being beaten down. Wang Yongjiang said with a smile: "I have to say, it was a good beating, but I need to improve my hand strength. If it were someone else, I could knock out their molars!"
"Mr. Tiekou, please stop joking. The Japanese have sent people to force us to have a baby. It's time for us to fight back. We can't be passively beaten!"
Zhang Tinglan gathered people, held a simple meeting, and laid out the action plan. Then the official bank issued an important statement, saying that during the currency exchange process, two Japanese scammers were found to come to exchange with 700,000 invoices, including mixed
The total amount of counterfeit currency exceeded 250,000 yuan. This shows that there may be a large number of counterfeit currency among the tickets. In order to ensure the interests of the public and the official bank, when exchanging currency, strict inspections must be made to ensure that there are no counterfeit currency.
After the statement was issued, Zhang Tinglan printed a large number of leaflets listing the differences between genuine and counterfeit coins so that ordinary people could better identify them. In fact, Zhang Tinglan made these things himself, so it is naturally very easy to identify them.
Due to the interference of counterfeit currency, inspections will seriously affect the exchange efficiency. Zhang Tinglan announced the addition of seven more reception windows, bringing the total reception windows to ten.
However, the seven windows added later cannot be exchanged for cash, but for new tickets with higher anti-counterfeiting quality!
The emergence of a large number of counterfeit currency is a fatal blow to the currency. If no plan is made, the currency may even be ruined. Zhang Tinglan had already asked Wang Yongjiang to come up with a set of currency, and also borrowed a few coins from Daosheng Bank.
An expert, in a short period of time, produced a brand new set of tickets with better anti-counterfeiting methods and more exquisite ones.
In the design of the exchange window, Zhang Tinglan also used tricks. All windows are responsible for distinguishing currencies. However, the new window can only exchange new tickets, not cash. This greatly reduces the pressure of exchange. Of course, the new tickets cannot be exchanged for cash.
It can be exchanged for cash, and the amount is exchanged in full without any discount.
However, due to the emergence of counterfeit currency, the people of Fengtian have also fallen into a serious panic. They urgently need to get rid of the old Fengtiao in their hands. The windows in front of the official bank are full of people. The first choice is to exchange them for oceans and silver.
, that thing feels secure in the hand, but it only has three windows and is too slow.
Some people wanted to cause trouble. When they saw the soldiers with live ammunition around them, they all calmed down. They could only reluctantly exchange them for new tickets. Fortunately, they promised that the new tickets would be fully redeemable, which was considered a blessing to everyone.
Account.
Of course, the problem of counterfeit currency will not be solved so easily. In-depth investigations must be conducted to find out the source. Otherwise, if two Japanese people are randomly detained, it will be a big trouble.
Ever since the issue of counterfeit currency broke out, Nomura Taro of Zhengjin Bank felt his head buzzing for several times. He instinctively felt that something was wrong and immediately asked his subordinates to clean up all the counterfeit notes in their hands. The result surprised him greatly.
.
After deducting the 700,000 yuan brought by the two Japanese, Zhengjin Bank still had 3.8 million yuan in banknotes, of which nearly 700,000 yuan was counterfeit. In addition, the money on those two guys was
There are more than 200,000 counterfeit coins, and Zhengjin Bank has over one million counterfeit coins.
After Nomura received the report, he was stunned. One million is not a small amount. Even if Zhengjin Bank has strong capital, it cannot withstand such a loss. If it is a normal investment, it is acceptable, but after receiving so many counterfeit coins in a daze, this
But it doesn't make sense no matter what.
Now that he thought about it, there could only be a problem during the acquisition process. He called all the confidants responsible for the acquisition of the tickets and tortured them carefully as to why there were so many counterfeit coins. The Japanese were also dumbfounded. They acquired
When I was working, I just thought about completing the task quickly, but I ended up ignoring the issue of authenticity.
"Baga! We were fooled." Nomura is not a fool. The printing of the receipts is rough, so it is very possible that counterfeit coins are mixed in, but there will never be so many, and they all end up in the hands of Zhengjin Bank. There must be something wrong with this.
.
Nomura immediately went to see Consul General Shi Tian. Shi Tian also knew about Zhengjin Bank’s attack on Fengqiao. He was waiting for Guanyin Bank to be unable to bear it anymore and come over to beg him. Then he could make a big hit again.
I have done this often in the past, and I have become accustomed to it.
As a result, instead of waiting for the Chinese, we waited for Nomura.
"Mr. Shitian, I suspect that this is a conspiracy against the empire. You must come forward and carefully investigate the Fengtian government to see what role they play."
"Nomura-kun, do you suspect that the Chinese people did it themselves? You know that producing so many counterfeit coins will be a fatal blow to their credibility. Unless they don't want to live anymore, I suspect that it was the Russians."
"No." Nomura shook his head and said, "The Chinese people responded too quickly. They immediately opened more windows and launched new tickets to stabilize people's hearts. If there was no preparation in advance, I definitely don't believe that the Chinese people could act so quickly."
Shitian was also unsure and asked casually: "What good does it do the Chinese people to make counterfeit money?"
"Of course there are benefits. They can take the opportunity to delay the exchange time. And the most important thing is that Zhengjin Bank has lost one million in vain. It has lost its overwhelming advantage. The Chinese people can easily avoid this crisis!"
Shitian had a gloomy face: "Nomura-kun, don't worry, the empire will never suffer unknown losses. We are going to find Zhang Zuolin now. I want him to give us an explanation!"
Shitian's mission is to help Japan control Fengtian, and it is also his duty to escort economic aggression. He and Nomura hurriedly found Zhang Zuolin.
After arriving at Shuai Mansion, he found that everyone was busy. When Lao Zhang saw Shi Tian and the others arriving, he hurriedly welcomed them out.
"Mr. Consul General, I was just looking for you. Are those two swindlers Japanese? They took more than 200,000 counterfeit currency in one go. This is so crazy and unforgivable. I am sending people to investigate. We must find the culprits.
find out!"
"Mr. Zhang, those two people are not liars at all, but staff of Zhengjin Bank. They came to redeem the tickets according to my instructions. You must let them go as soon as possible!" At this time, Nomura had to admit it.
Otherwise, the losses cannot be recovered.
Those two guys carried a total of 700,000. After deducting the counterfeit money, there were still more than 400,000 left. Now they are also being detained as stolen money. If they don't admit it, there will be no more than 400,000. Nomura will have to vomit blood.
Lao Zhang's expression also changed: "According to Mr. Nomura, everything is yours. It's not just a run on the official bank account, but also a run on the official bank account, but also a run on counterfeit coins. That's right. Printing a few counterfeit coins is not good for Zhengjin Bank."
What a big deal. I, Lao Zhang, also know about it, so I will tell them to stop busying themselves. Even if I had a hundred courages, they would not dare to investigate the Japanese affairs!"
Zhang Zuolin is definitely a master at climbing along the pole. He immediately pinned all the charges on the Japanese, making it difficult for people to tell the difference. Shitian and Nomura were caught off guard. Originally, they found Zhang Zuolin aggressively, but in one round, they took the initiative.
The power fell into the hands of Zhang Zuolin.
"Mr. Zhang, you misunderstood. I arranged those two people well, but the counterfeit money is not ours, and we are also victims, so we want to find you to investigate the truth!" Shi Tian's aura lowered unconsciously.
Lao Zhang invited Shi Tian and Nomura to the Tiger Hall with a serious look on his face. After sitting down, Lao Zhang didn't say a word and just smoked, filling the room with smoke.
Nomura had to say: "Mr. Zhang, I arranged the exchange of the banknotes, but the counterfeit money does have nothing to do with us, but some depositors flowed into Zhengjin Bank!"
"Depositors? It's a black market! You're just doing it to yourself!"
