Chapter three hundred and twentieth are jumping feet
"Li Shiqun, it's Li Shiqun again, doesn't he get enough from the empire? For his own selfish interests, he dares to undermine the empire's policy towards the mountain city government. He is tired of living. I will chop off his head with my own hands!" Gang
The village sergeant was furious.
He has never had a good impression of Li Shiqun, and his impression was not that bad. Last time, Wan Molin's incident had already made him furious. This incident only added fuel to the fire, and he directly took the responsibility for the counterfeit banknote incident.
, and it was pinned on Li Shiqun’s head.
"Section Chief, Li Shiqun may not be simply seeking profit, but is worried that using counterfeit banknotes will affect the reputation of Southeast Trading Company and cause funding difficulties for the Secret Service Headquarters."
"He invested this ten million in the black market in exchange for foreign exchange, and then used the foreign exchange to trade with smugglers in the Chiang Kai-shek area, so as to resolve his own hidden dangers." Captain Sato was interrupted at this point.
"Bullshit, don't I understand Li Shiqun's little thoughts? The empire's purpose is to destroy the economy and finance of the Chiang Kai-shek area and weaken the opponent's war potential and foundation. It is not to destroy the financial order of the Shanghai stock market and turn it into a mess!"
"Everyone knows the importance of the Shanghai Stock Exchange. It is the most important material base of our empire in central China. It also needs to be controlled for a long time to serve the imperial war. It has made a mess. This is an act of killing the goose that lays eggs. Using counterfeit banknotes to exchange foreign exchange, doesn't the empire
Can you make it yourself?" Major Okamura slammed the table angrily.
He is not the kind of loser who just hangs around. An incompetent person cannot be the director of a special high school. Li Shiqun's behavior can be understood as soon as he thinks about it. But the problem is that doing so undermines the Japanese government's plan to target the Yamashiro government.
strategy.
What is the purpose of printing counterfeit banknotes? In order to arbitrage materials, gold and foreign exchange in the Kuomintang-controlled areas, prices have soared and inflation has caused economic development to be in trouble. The legal currency credit system has completely collapsed. There is no currency to support the war, and Japan can plunder the wealth of the Kuomintang-controlled areas.
, to make up for the losses in the war.
Chen Mingxiang fought hard for Huatong Trading Company to suffer losses, and gritted his teeth not to reveal the secret of counterfeit banknotes. Li Shiqun was better off, and brought the disaster to his own home!
You, Li Shiqun, did not suffer any loss and got some benefits. You were able to complete the tasks of the agency, but the Shanghai stock market caused panic. Tens of millions of counterfeit banknotes were thrown into the market, and the consequences may be hundreds of millions.
What kind of money do foreign exchange dealers make? If the market price is 20 French currency to one US dollar, they need 22 or 25 French currency to exchange for one US dollar. This is to collect legal currency at a low price and then use it to exchange foreign exchange with the bank.
Earn the difference.
Once they discover that they have counterfeit currency and the bank refuses to accept it, the first reaction of foreign exchange dealers is to spend the counterfeit currency in exchange for some valuables to make up for their losses.
Counterfeit currency continues to emerge on the market, prices will inevitably skyrocket, and the value of legal currency will plummet. Whether it is legal currency or counterfeit banknotes snatched by the Japanese, the value will also be greatly reduced. Whether it is exchanging foreign exchange or purchasing supplies, they will be greatly affected.
Impact, how to make up for this hole?
What is even more troublesome is that some of the foreign exchange dealers in the underground black market are controlled by special Japanese agencies, such as the Second High School Class, the Kodama Agency, the Central China Liaison Department of Koya Institute, etc.
They are responsible for using the US dollars and pounds provided by the Japanese intelligence agency to privately exchange legal currency, and then exchange them for US dollars and pounds at the bank of the Yamashiro government to increase foreign exchange earnings for the Japanese military. However, they received counterfeit banknotes, and Japan will also suffer heavy losses.
Pen of foreign exchange.
"Suddenly things have reached this point. Bastards like Sugi Agency are simply holding back the empire. They are making these bullshit counterfeit money and are messing up the Shanghai stock market. They are a bunch of idiots who have high ambitions but low power!" Kinoshita Eiichi and Tsuda
Jingzhi came to the super high school director's office angrily.
"General, what happened?" Major Gangmura had a very bad feeling.
"Many businessmen in Shanghai who have close ties with the imperial army have complained to our Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute, claiming that they have received counterfeit banknotes. This phenomenon has also occurred in our Japanese company."
"What's even more troublesome is that they don't know the specific source of the counterfeit banknotes, nor do they know how much money has flowed from their hands to the Shanghai Stock Exchange. They can't find out. Moreover, the foreign exchange exchange team under the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute has also received
A huge amount of counterfeit money.”
"After inspection by professionals from Zhengjin Bank, it turned out that there were millions of them mixed with real banknotes, causing the empire to waste fifty thousand US dollars in foreign exchange!" Tsuda Shizue said through gritted teeth.
These smugglers who purchased supplies for the Japanese army were sellers rather than manufacturers, and their cash flow was very fast. Once they received the payment, they would then pay for other purchases.
The customers in the Kuomintang-controlled areas chosen by Chen Mingxiang have very large purchasing volumes, which means that the partners must have strong capabilities, otherwise it will be difficult to provide sufficient supply. A company's payment of 300,000 and 200,000 was an astonishing amount two years ago.
The number, there is nothing surprising at all now.
Smugglers not only bought goods from Chinese businessmen in the concession, but also from Japanese companies. After all, after the defeat of the battle, more than half of the factories and enterprises in Shanghai were robbed by the Japanese army and then controlled by Japanese companies.
In this way, a vicious circle was created. The counterfeit money went around in circles, passed through the channels of these smugglers, and finally ended up in the hands of Japanese companies, causing a setback for itself.
After the newspaper publicity, the bank provided a method to identify counterfeit banknotes. Everyone was checking whether the currency in their hands was counterfeit. When they checked, it was bad news, and they actually found counterfeit banknotes.
However, cash flow is so fast and basically does not go through bank operations. It is unclear where the counterfeit money flows and where it comes from. It is just a confusing account.
At the same time, the Special Second Section and the foreign exchange team under the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute also discovered a large number of counterfeit banknotes. They were not prepared for such a thing at all.
Every country's banknotes have anti-counterfeiting technology. Counterfeit banknotes cannot be printed casually. It is very difficult. Japan has used the power of the state machine to achieve this step. In addition, this kind of thing has never happened before.
, so, a large amount of foreign exchange was taken away by carelessness.
"Your Excellencies, Special Section 2 discovered an abnormal situation in the black market. Li Shiqun from the Secret Service Headquarters put all the counterfeit banknotes given to him by the Shan Agency to arbitrage supplies in Chiang Kai-shek District into the black market, and perhaps his own money.
Our foreign exchange team was probably deceived by him into using foreign exchange," said Major Okamura.
"Li Shiqun? How dare he do this? He used the counterfeit banknotes provided by the empire to disrupt the financial market of the Shanghai stock market and rob the empire of precious foreign exchange. Contact Ying Zuozhenzhao immediately. The Mei Agency must bear full responsibility for this matter!" Tsuda Shizue
