Looking at Lin Mo laughing, Lou Shaoguang asked in confusion: "Lin Mo, what is going on?"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Uncle Lou, this matter should be related to the millions of yen we seized this time."
"My brother and his friends poured these millions of yen directly into Shanghai today, causing panic in the market. They were selling yen everywhere, causing a stampede, and no real news was spread. Now Shanghai is in chaos.
Already."
"Forget it, let's talk about this later! I still have to give instructions to Shanghai to prevent them from having any problems."
After saying that, Lin Mo called the Shanghai Commercial Bank again. At this time, the person in charge had received a call from Lin's father and had no doubts about Lin Mo's words.
This time, Lin Mo told the other party the details of the operation. The main purpose was to hide himself during the exchange and not let others find out that the Lin family was doing this.
In fact, it was Lin Mo who was too worried. Now Shanghai has become a mess. Money is changing hands everywhere and nothing can be found out.
In addition, it’s not like there are no smart people in Shanghai. Now some people have reacted and are exchanging banknotes, but they don’t dare to buy them on a large scale yet.
Among this group of people, the largest group was undoubtedly the group that helped Lin Wenhua and others sell Japanese yen. Although they did not know the cause and effect of the matter, they still made some guesses.
They haven't made a large-scale move yet. On the one hand, they are still searching for information. On the other hand, they want to make more money and wait for the price of banknotes to continue to fall.
In order to achieve this goal, these people also established connections in the French Concession and let in Suzuki Ichiro and his group who were confronting the police station.
At this time, Suzuki Ichiro and his group were like great men. Everywhere they went, there were dedicated people to clear the place and drive ordinary people away.
The places Suzuki and his gang went to were the gambling stalls, the Hanalou Cinema and the Smoke House, which sold out ten yen today.
However, Suzuki's group received nothing except a few stacks of ten yen, because when Lin Wenhua's men exchanged money, they always took Japanese yen and exchanged it directly from these places for money at a price lower than the market price.
Although someone had indeed arranged these things, who would tell them? Basically, in every place, a few guests who were present at the time were found to testify, and then Suzuki and his group were sent away.
Suzuki's colleagues were still complaining about these people's perfunctory behavior. Suzuki had vaguely noticed that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it.
At this time, the Lin family and Lin Wenhua's men had already begun to take action. The Lin family put on large coats, hats, sunglasses, and big scarves, picked up boxes of silver coins, and rushed to the surrounding Hongkou District according to Lin Mo's instructions.
In addition to Hongkou, the Lin family also sent people to take deposit checks and slowly went to various banks to exchange the Japanese yen in each other's hands at a low price. Of course, not all banks could exchange it, and some banks were still waiting to see.
among.
Lin Wenhua's men also repacked the large boxes of silver coins that were carried onto the small steamer into small boxes, moved them off the ship, put on the clothes sent by the Lin family, and rushed to various parts of Shanghai.
When the Lin family arrived around Hongkou, they found that someone had already arrived before them. They were all dressed up similarly and covered up. So the more powerful families met and, regardless of who the other party was, they all started to lower the price tacitly.
In Nanjing, Lin Mo just told Uncle Lou his speculation for a while, and Lin Wenhua hurried over.
As soon as Lin Wenhua entered the door, he asked Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, what's going on? Why is there such a big fuss?"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Brother, to put it simply, there is too much money, which causes panic in the market. Some people sell, causing a wave of selling, causing a stampede effect."
"As for the reason, it's quite complicated. Sit down first and I'll tell you slowly."
After hearing this, Lin Wenhua patiently took off his coat and sat on the sofa.
Lin Mo saw it and explained: "Brother, I just checked the situation through a trading company in Shanghai, and I already know what is going on."
"The source of the incident is that you went to places like opium dens and gambling stalls to exchange money. After they took the money, they directly exchanged it at a price lower than the market exchange price."
"These places are usually populated by a large number of gamblers and speculators. When these people see the profits, they naturally swarm in and exchange the yen to Hongkou and other places in Shanghai to exchange for profit, and they get the money directly.
It’s gone to the circulation field.”
"I went to Hongkou because it is Japanese territory, it is easy to sell, and the prices are higher than other places."
"The circulation of money describes the money used for transactions with each other in the market, and the money that is not moved in the bank is not counted."
"You must know that in Shanghai, the Japanese yen is only a niche currency. It is basically only used in Hongkou. The number of yen circulating in the market may only be tens of thousands, or at most hundreds of thousands of yen."
"Now that hundreds or even millions of yen suddenly enter the circulation area, or the sudden influx in one day, problems will naturally arise."
"At night, something must have happened that triggered this incident and caused panic in the market. I guess it was the Japanese spy organization in Shanghai who discovered the money and did something to cause it.
of."
"It became easy after that. Some people in the market started to exchange the ten yen we exchanged, but this happened in Hongkou."
"This place has already been exchanged for ten yen before, and almost all the other money has been exchanged. Naturally, it cannot be exchanged in the market."
"At first, Japanese banks dared to exchange money, but later they couldn't stand it anymore and closed their doors. Then the money went from Hongkou to other places in Shanghai."
"At this time in Shanghai, many people already knew about this, and the money you deposited in the bank began to pour into the market. This resulted in a pile of ten yen in the market, and no one dared to do so."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then some people started to lower the price, so the ten yen began to depreciate, which in turn caused the yen to also depreciate. The panic in the market began to further expand, forming a stampede effect."
"The stampede effect, to put it bluntly, is a run. It can be understood as a bank being scrambled by depositors to withdraw money, but they don't have that much money. Now, in the end, the deposit checks in the hands of depositors can no longer withdraw money and become like a blank piece of paper.
The current situation is that the market is the bank, and the banknotes are the deposit checks."
"You also know that banknotes are in China. Let's not go into details. The banknotes issued by the warlords in the Beiyang period depreciated as soon as they were issued. Now they don't even have the price of the paper. As a result, the Chinese people basically only believe in gold and silver, not banknotes."
"As a result, people in Shanghai began to exchange gold and silver, and even many large businessmen also entered the market. As a result, there were more banknotes in the market than gold and silver, and the banknotes of other countries naturally began to suffer."
"Of course, this is not the only reason. There are also reasons such as the lack of real news in the market and other reasons."
After hearing this, Lin Wenhua suddenly understood. After thinking about it for a while, he asked again: "Lin Mo, then this matter is so big, it won't cause any big trouble, right?"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, brother, this is just a misunderstanding in the final analysis. Something has happened to the Japanese spy organization now, so the news has not spread to the market."
"No matter how slow the Japanese spy organization responds, it will be able to react tomorrow morning. Once the matter is published in the newspapers, the matter will be over..."
"Report it... report it?" At this point, Lin Mo muttered a few words.
Lin Mo suddenly reacted and hurriedly said to Lin Wenhua: "Brother, we have to take advantage of this matter first."
"What's wrong?" Seeing Lin Mo like this, Lin Wenhua suddenly panicked and asked hurriedly.
Lin Mo listened, calmed down for a moment, and explained: "Brother, in the end, this matter was caused by us. Once the matter is announced by the Japanese spy organization, we will be passive. We must first
Let’s get started, and put the shit basin on the head of the Japanese spy organization.”
After saying that, Lin Mo, Lin Wenhua, and Uncle Lou gathered together and started whispering, and from time to time they made evil laughter.
After the three people finished their discussion, they started making phone calls to various places with flushed faces. The excitement in their voices could not be concealed no matter how hard they tried.
……………………
Far away in Shanghai, Sakai and Takeuchi were reunited at Tektronix, and Sakai's face was livid with anger.
After a while, Sakai suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Takeuchi, you already know the situation outside, right? People like Suzuki are really so careless in doing things and leaking the news."
Upon hearing this, Takeuchi hurriedly tried to persuade him: "Sakai-kun, we can't blame them entirely for this matter. After all, no one knew that such a thing would happen."
"Hmph..." Sakai snorted coldly after hearing this. After a while, he asked: "Takeuchi-kun, what should we do now? The consulate and the garrison just called me to ask what happened.
.”
"Although I have covered it up, the matter can't be hidden for long. If we don't handle it well, we will be in trouble by then."
Takeuchi also had a headache after hearing this, but for a while he didn't know how to solve it.
Seeing Takeuchi's delay in answering, Sakai asked tentatively: "Takeuchi-kun, how about we declare that the batch of ten yen is scrapped?"
"No, no, no..." Sakai's words made Takeuchi jump up in fright and refused repeatedly.
When Sakai saw it, he felt a little unhappy and asked: "Takeuchi-kun, if I ask you and you won't tell me, I suggest you refuse, okay, then you tell me how to solve it?"
After hearing this, Takeuchi smiled bitterly and said: "Itai-kun, the method of demonetizing banknotes is absolutely impossible. Now many of those ten yen are in the hands of our own overseas Chinese. If banknotes are demonetized, our own people will be hurt in the end."
