In fact, a scam is not just about how cleverly it is set up, but also about catching people’s greedy mentality!
Some scams seem to be full of loopholes, but there are so many smart people and big businessmen,
Bankers and even officials were fooled, waving banknotes and jumping in one by one without risking their lives. There is only one reason: greed!
Greed can make people crazy, and can make people lose their normal reason and basic judgment.
In fact, a few years ago, [China] had just experienced a "rubber stock market crash" and the trauma and impact had not yet dissipated. Those businessmen, Chinese and foreign bankers who suffered heavy losses have not yet recovered from the pain.
A new scam has begun. Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying have become celebrities in the French Concession, especially after their gold ashtrays were stolen. The previous rumors were completely confirmed.
Such a powerful, young and rich young man is always popular.
The theft of a gold ashtray did not affect Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying's mood at all. The dance went on and the clothes were still the same. As their fame grew, more and more people wanted to know each other more strongly.
These two young people with mysterious colors.
And another rumor was quickly confirmed: they really have a gold mine, and it's in China!
The news spread like the wind. Some people were crazy about it, while others were dubious.
Gold can already drive people crazy, and owning a gold mine is simply an incredible thing.
It is no exaggeration to describe the entrance of Cai and Hu's villa as a busy place.
Dances were held one after another, and countless noble ladies and ladies were honored to receive invitations from the two of them.
Music sounded in the villa, and the ladies in flamboyant attire kept ogling Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying, hoping to win their favor.
It's a pity that these two rich young men don't seem to have their minds on women. "Boss Huang!" When Huang Jinrong, a well-known celebrity in Shanghai, appeared, Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying greeted him with cheerful faces.
Bi Jinrong couldn't help but came up to him with joy. He didn't smell like a gangster at all. He held his hand and said, "Boss Cai and Boss Hu, I would like to introduce two friends to you. This is Lin Ge, the chief inspector of the patrol room of the French Concession in Shanghai."
Sir, this is Mr. Pies, the general manager of Dowson Bank."
"Hello." Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying shook hands with them.
Ringer clapped his hands to stop the music, and everyone became quiet. Ringer looked a little arrogant: "Everyone, everyone! I am here to announce good news to everyone. The day before yesterday, Mr. Cai and Hu
An ashtray made of pure gold was lost in my husband's house. Our Mr. Huang Huangrong was also present at that time. He once promised that he would solve the case within three days. Now that the three days have come, please allow me to honor him.
I would like to announce to you that Mr. Huang Huangrong has successfully solved this case!" The scene was suddenly filled with whispers and discussions.
Lin Ge stepped aside, and Huang Huangrong walked out with a proud smile. He clapped his hands, and the person behind him brought a paper box. Huang Xianrong opened it and took out the contents.
In an instant, there was another cry of exclamation.
A real ashtray made of solid gold!
Huang Jinrong took the gold ashtray and walked up to Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying: "Boss Cai, Boss Huang, please take a look and see if this is what you lost?"
"God!" Cai Chenfang made a cross on his chest: "Boss Huang, I didn't expect you to actually come back."
Huang Huangrong was proud of himself, but tried his best to appear humble.
The golden ashtray was handed over, but Cai Chenfang did not accept it. Instead, he raised his voice and said: "When I was abroad, I often heard people say that the security in China was not good, but now I can confirm that all these are rumors.
.〖中〗With people like the state-owned boss Huang, no criminals can escape!" A burst of applause burst out.
Cai Chenfang stopped the applause: "Everyone, in order to express my gratitude, I decided to give such a small... thing to Boss Huang!"
There was another low exclamation, but Huang Huangrong had already seen the generosity of these two people and was not too surprised. Or in their eyes, this gold ashtray was no different from an ordinary ashtray.
The music started again. Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying invited Huang Jinrong, Ringer and Pies to another room and poured wine. Cai Chenfang said slowly: "First of all, I must apologize for our rudeness. We came to Shanghai
, I live in the French Concession, so I should visit you first." "No, it doesn't matter." Piece said, and suddenly a string of French words came out of his mouth: "I heard that you guys came from France before?" Hu Qiying
Without thinking, he also said in French: "Yes, we have some business in France." "Oh, what kind of business is it? Can you tell us the name of the company?"
"Of course, Afudasau Investment Company, by the Rhone River in Lyon."
Piers and Ringer exchanged looks and nodded slightly.
The two of them had a series of conversations in French that left Huang Huangrong confused at all.
At this time, Pies also switched back to the same fluent Chinese Mandarin: "The Rhone River is a place that makes me miss it. The great Lyon Opera House is there. I really miss it."
"Mr. General Manager, why don't you go back and take a look?" Cai Chenfang asked with a smile.
Pies sighed: "After the merger of Daosheng and Northern Bank, there were too many things. After the Red elements in Russia launched a riot, the head office was confiscated by the Red elements, which also made our affairs even busier.
God, how I want to go back to France. The war is coming to an end, great France."
After chatting there for a while, Pies slowly changed the topic to the real purpose of coming: "I heard that two gentlemen discovered gold mines in Yunnan and established a company in Shanghai to prepare for the issuance of stocks. I didn't know about this news.
Is it true?"
Cai Chenfang shrugged: "I think almost half of Shanghai knows about this, right? I can answer you honestly, yes, we have indeed discovered gold mines in Yunnan and have signed a ninety-nine-year contract.
Contract. But we need to raise necessary funds because we have decided to issue stocks and mine gold mines smoothly." Pies listened to him carefully: "Can I see the contract?"
"Of course." Hu Qiying walked back to the bedroom without consulting Cai Chenfang. After a while, she took out a thick stack of documents and placed them in front of Pies: "All the documents are here."
Pies looked at it very carefully, almost line by line. Whenever he saw a signature or seal, he would carefully check the authenticity.
It took more than half an hour before Pies put down the document in his hand: "Judging from the contract, it is indeed impeccable. Sino-American Xinlong Co., Ltd. contracted the Dahongshan Copper Mine in the hands of the former Yunnan Governor.
Several mines in the country, and you contracted from them gold mines that had not yet been discovered. Well, I must be honest about the purpose of my visit this time. Daosheng Bank is very interested in joining the investment, but I
Further confirmation is needed.”
I thought that Cai Chenfang and Hu Qiying would be very happy, but they did not expect that they were indifferent at all, as if they were not enthusiastic about it: "Of course we welcome investment, confirmed? We will go to Yunnan next week. If Mr. Pies is interested,
Of course you can go to the site with us to have a look." By this time, Pies, Huang Huangrong, and Lin Ge were already 60% convinced that what they were telling the truth. If they were liars, how could they dare to invite people to inspect the site?
They don't care who invests. Since there is such a gold mine, countless people will go crazy begging them to take their money and pursue their stocks like crazy. Why do they care about Pies and Dowson?
bank?
The joy in Pies's eyes also flashed: "Okay, thank you very much for the invitation. I think this matter is important. Lou will personally go to Yunnan with you."
"We will notify you before departure!"
The purpose of coming has been achieved. Pies sat there for a while, then stood up to say goodbye with Lin Ge and Huang Huangrong, and got into his car. Pies said: "Huang, you have done a great thing. If
If this thing is true, then we will all make a fortune."
Huang Jinrong's eyes narrowed to a slit, and then Pies said seriously: "But this investment is huge, we must be cautious. Detective Ringer, I am going to Yunnan, and I want you to investigate what they are doing."
The French company.
"No problem, leave it to me." Lin Ge said readily...
"Do you think they took the bait?"
"The second step." Cai Chenfang lit a cigarette and took two puffs: "Notify the Yunnan authorities that we will return there. We will also have a few guests with us."
Hu Qiying drank the wine: "Daosheng Bank has the most chaotic management among all banks. If they had not previously enjoyed the rights to collect various taxes from [China] and had the right to operate business related to local and national treasury, they could cast [中]
In addition to the currency licensed by the Chinese government: the repayment of interest on public bonds raised by the [Chinese] government, and the privileges of laying railways and electric wires in [Chinese] territory, perhaps they have long been heavily in debt due to poor management. Where else can they find it?
Today's scale?" Cai Chenfang smiled: "As long as the scam succeeds this time, not only Daosheng Bank, but also other banks will be implicated. We are afraid that we will become the most famous scammer in China. We were involved in Guangxi
A huge sum of money. Now that we are doing this in Zhanhai, what’s the next step? Where else can we go, and who else can we deceive?” “Yes, Wang Hengyue has already arranged it for us.” Hu Qiying said calmly.
: "There is another place we can go. No one will recognize us there, and we can continue to do our job. But I think we should improve our English."
Cai Chenfang laughed: "Being a successful liar is really hard work!".
