After learning about this from Wen Hanqing, Yuntianhua couldn't sit still.
However, seeing that Wen Hanqing chose to inform him privately in advance instead of reporting it directly to Lin Jianxing, Yuntianhua also knew that his previous judgment was correct. This supreme elder of the Wuliang Sword Sect, who is known for his neutrality, still looked down on Lin Jianxing in his heart.
.
After all, everyone now knows that Lin Jianxing is eager to win over him as the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank. If Wen Hanqing's position is in favor of Lin Jianxing, she only needs to inform Lin Jianxing of the matter, and Yuntianhua can only take the blame and resign on the spot.
Already.
So Yuntianhua immediately asked Wen Hanqing to help keep it secret, and directly entrusted Pan's Trading Company to help investigate the source of the counterfeit banknote.
Wen Hanqing can naturally understand Yuntianhua's concerns.
Since there are counterfeit banknotes in the market that look like real ones, there is a high probability that there is an insider inside Lingshi Reserve Bank. Therefore, Yuntianhua cannot entrust Lingshi Reserve Bank insiders to conduct an investigation under any circumstances!
If an interested person knew about this matter, Yuntianhua would probably be raped before the truth was revealed, and his own life might even be in danger. After all, Yuntianhua could know with his toes the criminal gang that could commit such a crime.
The forces behind it are anything but simple!
In contrast, Pan's Commercial Bank is a private property of the Pan family, with business outlets all over Jiuzhou. Whether it is confidentiality awareness or execution capabilities, private enterprises like Pan's Commercial Bank are far superior to bureaucratic institutions such as Lingshi Reserve Bank.
Just as Yuntianhua expected, Wen Hanqing did not hesitate and agreed to help him on the spot. Under his personal instruction, Pan's Trading Company quickly mobilized its forces to start the investigation.
Since these two banknotes were printed in the Yuntianhua era, otherwise these two banknotes would have been printed with the personal magic marks of Li Qingyang, Li Rui, and even Lu Yang, so their circulation time is not long, which is also huge
This facilitated the investigation work of Pan's Trading Company. After strict investigation, the source of the two banknotes was quickly investigated clearly.
The origin of one of the banknotes is very simple.
It was originally a batch of cash provided by Lingshi Reserve Bank to Haiya Bank last year. This batch of cash was stored in the Haiya Bank vault for more than half a year. It was not until recently that the Haiya Sect’s neighbor Yaoguang Sect took it from their own house.
He withdrew it from his public account opened at Haiya Bank, and was then taken to the auction site by Jin Yongji, the leader of the Yaoguang Sect.
Since no doubts have been found in the entire circulation process, this means that it should be genuine banknotes.
However, the origin of the other banknote is very suspicious.
First of all, this banknote was taken out by a certain golden elixir-level elder from Liuyun Sect in Arctic State who participated in the auction.
Since the headquarters of Lingshi Reserve Bank is established in Zhongzhou, most of the cash circulation starts from Zhongzhou. The Lingshi currency banknotes circulating in other major states are generally older than Zhongzhou.
Not only is Arctic State located in a remote location, but the Haiyuan Chamber of Commerce, the leader in ocean trade in Arctic State, has always had a bad relationship with the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, the leader in ocean trade in Zhongzhou. This has resulted in very limited trade flows between Arctic State and Zhongzhou, and most of them are concentrated in Contains.
There is almost no direct communication between Guangcheng's territory and the chamber of commerce under Liuyun Sect.
Considering that the Lingshi Reserve Bank has not released Yuntianhua version of cash to Arctic State in the past two years, the Lingshi Reserve Bank has issued cash for less than a year and has now begun to circulate in Liuyun Sect's territory. This is obviously
This is not a normal phenomenon.
According to the Liuyun Sect elder, the banknote in his hand did not come from the sect's salary, but was paid to him by merchants from Zhongzhou when he sold frost grass in a certain Jiafang City in Arctic State.
As we all know, frost grass is the most common ice-attribute elixir in Kyushu.
Whether it is to help cultivators who practice ice-attribute skills break through their realm bottlenecks, or to refine elixirs that enhance the effect of ice-attribute spells, it is one of the indispensable auxiliary materials, and the market demand is very huge, and the Liuyun Sect
Elders can cultivate to the realm of golden elixir mainly by relying on the unique secret of cultivating frost grass in large quantities passed down from their ancestors.
This does give the banknote a reasonable origin.
Under normal circumstances, the maker of counterfeit banknotes will definitely not just produce a few counterfeit banknotes.
When you find a counterfeit banknote, there are often a large number of counterfeit banknotes already circulating in the market, so Pan's Trading Company immediately sent people to the Arctic Prefecture Fang City where the Liuyun Sect elder opened his shop to conduct an on-the-spot investigation.
Through in-depth research in this city, the local branch of the Lingshi Reserve Bank found a large number of Lingshi coin cash from the Yuntianhua era, and its circulation ratio even exceeded the cash from the Li Qingyang era.
You must know that Li Qingyang has been the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank for two hundred years, and the Lingshi currency banknotes have been strengthened through special cultivation spells. The natural loss rate is much lower than that of earth banknotes. Therefore, the Lingshi coins issued in the Yuntianhua era
The total amount of cash is less than a fraction of Li Qingyang's cash stock, and most of it is concentrated in Zhongzhou.
However, in this remote Xiuzhenfang city in Arctic Prefecture, the number of Yuntianhua version of banknotes in circulation actually overwhelmed the number of Li Qingyang version of banknotes. Not only that, but the neighboring ports that have more trade exchanges with this remote city
In Hefang City, the circulation ratio of Yuntianhua banknotes is also significantly higher than the normal level.
The investigators quickly realized that there must be a ghost here!
After collecting some Lingshi coin cash for comparison, Pan's Commercial Bank investigators found another Lingshi coin cash with the same number as Zhongzhou's in the local area. The reason why more cash with the same number was not found is
It's not that these are the only counterfeit banknotes in total, but Pan's Trading Company really doesn't have the energy to correct so many Yuntianhua banknotes one by one.
But having this evidence is enough. At this point in the investigation, Pan's Trading Company has almost determined that the Yuntianhua version of the cash from Zhongzhou should have started to circulate in this Arctic Prefecture city, and gradually spread to nearby cities.
And this batch of Yuntianhua banknotes of unknown origin should all be counterfeit!
It is impossible for such a huge amount of counterfeit money to flow in without leaving any traces, not to mention that there are only a handful of Zhongzhou cultivation forces who have recently come to Arctic Prefecture City to purchase large quantities of cultivation materials. After further investigation by Pan's Trading Company, it will soon be revealed that
The source of the target is the Qingyun Sect, a vassal sect of the Wuliang Sword Sect.
Qingyun Sect's mainstream mental training method is the ice attribute mental method. Not only that, a certain foundation-building elder of Qingyun Sect happened to come to this market recently to purchase a large amount of supplies.
If he had only purchased the unique specialties of the Arctic State, the Qingyun General Foundation Establishment Elder would not have been targeted by the investigators of Pan's Trading Company so quickly. However, this person had purchased a large number of ordinary cultivators that were not scarce in Zhongzhou.
resources, and even specially purchased hundreds of tons of black iron and transported them back to Zhongzhou via ocean-going merchant ships.
As we all know, Zhongzhou is originally a big mineral state, and Luanshi City is famous for its black iron ore production capacity in Kyushu.
The elder of Qingyun Sect did not go to Luanshi City in Zhongzhou to purchase black iron ore, but instead went to Arctic State, where minerals are scarce, to buy black iron ore at a high price and then transport it back to Zhongzhou. This strange thing impressed the businessmen of Fang City in Arctic State.
It was so profound that even the other resources acquired by this Qingyun Sect elder were noticed by those who were interested.
