Lao Zhang directly exposed Nomura's lie. Both Nomura and Shitian were extremely embarrassed. They had no good intentions and relied on the black market to buy tickets, and then ran on the official bank account. This behavior was despicable enough.
Unluckily enough, I received a batch of counterfeit bills. It's a typical case of stealing the chicken but losing the rice. You deserve to die for the loss.
"Mr. Shitian, we have known each other for a long time. You added insult to injury and ended up with a bunch of counterfeit coins. This is all your own fault. I, Old Zhang, can't control it!"
"Mr. Zhang, this is all a misunderstanding. Zhengjin Bank is definitely not involved in the run. It's just that some people who received the votes did not believe in the votes, so they took the initiative to deposit them in Zhengjin Bank. As a result, a large number of counterfeit coins appeared. We need to solve it now
It’s the problem of counterfeit money!”
Nomura was indeed thick-skinned, telling lies with his eyes open. Lao Zhang frowned, placed the pipe stem heavily on the table, and said in a deep voice: "After discovering the counterfeit currency, we acted quickly and worked hard to find evidence.
.Mr. Nomura, can you guarantee that these counterfeit coins are not a deliberate trick by Zhengjin Bank?"
"Zhang Sang, Zhengjin Bank will never do such a thing. You are slandering the dignity of Japan. I hope you take back what you just said!"
Zhang Zuolin rolled his eyes and said sternly: "I, Old Zhang, are like a thorn in the way of spitting, and I will never take it back. If you can run on the official bank account, you can print fake bills. Now I am afraid that the thief is shouting "Catch the thief!"
Lao Zhang's attitude was very tough. It was clearly a matter that was wronged by the Japanese. How could he be intimidated by them? Shi Tian and Nomura looked at each other and felt that the matter was difficult. Every time he dealt with Zhang Zuolin, Shi Tian felt depressed.
The feeling of vomiting blood.
Fortunately, Nomura was thick-skinned enough and continued: "Zhang Sang, we definitely have no intention of running on the official bank account. We just saw that the tickets were not reliable, so we were eager to redeem them."
"There is nothing unreliable about receiving tickets. Guanyinhao can fully bear all the exchanges!"
Shitian seized the opportunity and immediately said: "In that case, Zhang Sang, why not exchange all the coupons in Zhengjin Bank's hands, so that we can all feel more relaxed!"
Shi Tian was not stupid. He and Zhang Zuolin were still entangled with the issue of counterfeit currency. They had no clue, so they simply forced the palace and asked Lao Zhang to exchange the votes as soon as possible. Fortunately, they still had about three million in votes.
In their opinion, this is already the limit of the official bank account’s redemption ability.
Even if they reluctantly exchange it, they can drain all the reserves. As long as Zhang Zuolin is forced into a corner, he can regain the initiative and then pursue the issue of counterfeit currency.
Unexpectedly, Lao Zhang was not ambiguous at all, and immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes, no matter how much you have, you can exchange it, but Mr. Nomura, if you get a bunch of counterfeit coins again, don't blame Zhang for turning your back on him!"
Nomura was immediately filled with anger. He stopped talking nonsense and directly arranged for people to move three million over. Zhang Zuolin also called Zhang Tinglan over, and also brought a group of staff to check the currency.
In the process of moving, Nomura spoke again: "Zhang Sang, the two people you detained, they exchanged 700,000 yuan, deducting the counterfeit currency, there are still 450,000 yuan, please also exchange it!"
"Mr. Nomura, I'm afraid this won't work. Those money are all stolen goods. We have to wait until the counterfeit money case becomes clearer before we deal with it."
"If you can't solve the case after three to five years, will our money continue to be delayed?"
"Of course we won't keep delaying it." Zhang Tinglan spoke at this time: "But we have to make sure that the counterfeit currency was not produced by your Zhengjin Bank before we can exchange it. To put it bluntly, your suspicion has not been cleared yet. Now
It’s already a huge favor to be able to redeem it for you!”
Nomura wanted to argue, but Shi Tian on the side gave him a wink, not letting him continue to struggle with this issue. Soon the person who had withdrawn the money ran back, with a total of three million in votes, and several
A leather box was placed in front of Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Tinglan.
Nomura also showed a proud smile on his face: "Zhang Sang, please exchange it for a small amount of money now!"
Zhang Tinglan waved his hand and asked several staff members to check in public to prevent counterfeit money from being mixed in. These had been cleaned by Zhengjin Bank employees, and there were no counterfeit money in them, so the inspection went smoothly.
"Mr. Nomura, the total is three million yuan. To be honest with you, it would be difficult to convert all of it into gold and silver. I wonder if you can accept payment in pounds sterling?"
"Pounds? Why did I hear that when you exchanged it for Liu Mingqi, you provided Russian bank bonds? Is it because you don't have enough capital in hand and you need to top it up with pounds?"
When Zhang Tinglan heard that Nomura took the initiative to mention Russian bonds, she felt extremely happy. She did not expect that Nomura was as stupid as Liu Mingqi and actually stepped into the trap. This was really surprising, but Zhang Tinglan still had to pretend to be reluctant.
"Three million is not a small amount, and it will all be paid with bonds. Once there is a loss, I'm worried that your bank will not be able to bear it!"
"The reputation of the Bank of Japan is as good as gold. We will buy as many bonds as we have. And I heard that the bonds are offset by a 50% discount. Why not do such a cost-effective business?"
Nomura focused on bonds, and he also had his own plans. By buying a large number of bonds, Miki opened the door to Russia and obtained a large number of arms orders. As a competitor, Nomura also coveted the Russian market, hoping that
With the help of bonds, open the door to Russian finance.
After Liu Mingqi made the exchange, he reported to Nomura that Guanyin No. owned Russian bonds. Nomura immediately targeted the bonds and could not arouse his interest in anything else.
"Mr. Nomura, since you are so interested in bonds, we will naturally meet your request!"
Zhang Tinglan was eager to give them all this rubbish and quickly took over the bonds. The total value was nearly 3.2 million, without any sloppiness.
Nomura and Shitian did not expect that Zhang Tinglan would be so happy and actually take out so many bonds, and there was a look of horror in their eyes.
"Mr. Nomura, the Fengtian Industrial Group has reached a trade contract with Russia, and we will provide Russia with grain, canned food and other military supplies, and these bonds are the advance payments made by Russia. The Fengtian Industrial Group has strong reserves, even if all the bonds are paid
It’s all redeemed, and there’s no difficulty at all. No one can make trouble on the ground in Fengtian, otherwise you’ll be responsible for the consequences!”
Strength is confidence, Zhang Tinglan simply showed a trump card and beat the little devils so that they would not dare to act rashly.
When Nomura heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He didn't know the other party's trump card in advance, so he bought the tickets rashly and came to cash in. Not only did he fail, but he also withdrew the counterfeit money problem, leaving Zheng Jin with the money.
The bank lost more than one million yuan, and Nomura regretted it a lot.
"Zhang Sang, although these three million have been exchanged, you must investigate the issue of counterfeit currency as soon as possible. The empire will not relax the investigation. If you can accuse the empire of fraud, the empire also suspects that this is a act directed and performed by you.
It’s a farce, let’s wait and see!” After Shitian left these words, he and Nomura left the handsome manor.
"What a fool, these little devils are not stupid, they actually suspected us!" Lao Zhang chuckled: "Tinglan, have you found a scapegoat for this counterfeit currency issue?"
"Uncle Seven, last time we had a conflict with the Japanese, we used Koreans to top the tank. I think it is better to use Russians as a scapegoat this time. Now Tsarist Russia is in turmoil, there are a lot of opposition forces, and there are also their activities in the three eastern provinces. These guys are trying to
They raised funds for the event and printed counterfeit banknotes. As a result, the Japanese used the black market to purchase them, and it fell into the hands of Zhengjin Bank. In this way, the Japanese themselves were not at ease, and ended up being tricked by the Russians. It had nothing to do with us, even if
If they doubt it, we don’t have to worry!”
After listening, Lao Zhang nodded, but there was still a trace of hesitation: "This excuse is good, but there are flaws. The Russians' main areas of activity are in Heilongjiang and Jilin, not Fengtian, and they should also print counterfeit banknotes, so the ruble should be the first choice.
Therefore, the Japanese will not easily accept this statement."
The biggest flaw of this method is not here, but that this method has been used before. When cleaning up the stick, anti-Japanese organizations were used to silence the Japanese, and finally the Clan and Socialist Party were eliminated. Now the same trick is repeated
, letting the Russians take the blame will inevitably make the Japanese suspicious.
"The little devils are also narrow-minded. They must make things flawless in order to stop their mouths. Tinglan, your idea is good. But we have to consider the details. It is best not to be discovered by us on our own initiative. That way Japan
People will become suspicious!”
While Zhang Tinglan was thinking, the Jewish man Fred suddenly took the initiative to go to the handsome man's house and found Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Tinglan. When they met, Fred looked very serious.
"Commander Zhang, I want to tell you some good news. A batch of important arms is about to pass by on the Middle East Road, including eight 122mm howitzers, fifty Maxim machine guns, and a large number of artillery shells and bullets. In addition, there are
There is a bullet production line ordered from the United States, as well as a batch of firearms maintenance equipment. I think these are things you urgently need!"
Suddenly, Zhang Tinglan and Zhang Zuolin's eyes widened. The most rare thing for Lao Zhang was the eight howitzers. He had already obtained four of them before. Together, they were enough to equip a heavy artillery battalion. Looking at the princes in the world, I am afraid that no one can do it.
It has such powerful firepower.
Zhang Tinglan was interested in the bullet production line and maintenance equipment. After obtaining the official bank account, Fengtian Machinery Bureau became within his grasp. With the bullet production line, the future Fengtian Arsenal finally had its outline.
"Old friend, you ordered the production lines and machines, right?"
"Yes, Zhang, I know you have been coveting these things for a long time. I bribed the governor of the Far East and purchased them from the United States in his name. But there is another biggest difficulty. The value of this batch of arms is greater than before, so
There is a squadron of Japanese soldiers escorting the transport along the way. After arriving in Changchun, the Russian soldiers will take over. If we don't get rid of them, we will never get the weapons!"
I just received a notice that it will be on the shelves on the 1st, and it is very sudden along with the strong recommendation. I will save the manuscript as much as possible, and also thank the book friends for their support. Thank you again!
