There are bundles of brand-new banknotes stacked in the carton, but they are neither China Reserve Bank Notes nor Japanese military notes, but legal currency circulating in the Kuomintang-controlled areas!
Jiang Xinyu estimated the time and knew that Zhao Yuhu had already seen the items in the carton. He got out of the car and walked over and said, "How is it?"
Zhao Yuhu: "Captain, the brothers are checking."
Jiang Xinyu glanced at the people in the truck, pretending to be surprised and said: "Mr. Gao Mu? Why are you here?"
"Captain Jiang, why am I here? I have to ask your subordinates!"
Takagi knew Jiang Xinyu and knew that he was not only the captain of the detective team, but also Hattori Hikoo's future brother-in-law, so his tone was naturally a little more polite.
Jiang Xinyu turned to look at Zhao Yuhu and said, "What's going on? Why did you block the extra high school bus?"
Zhao Yuhu: "Captain, I didn't know they were really from the special high school..."
"It's just nonsense!" After Jiang Xinyu finished training Zhao Yuhu, he said to Gao Mu: "I'm very sorry for wasting Mr. Gao Mu's time!"
Takagi's anger slowly calmed down and he said: "Captain Jiang, let this matter go. I hope it won't happen again!"
Jiang Xinyu said politely: "Don't worry, I will strictly restrain the people below!"
As he spoke, he waved to his men to move the roadblock and let them pass.
Watching the truck speeding away, Jiang Xinyu called Zhao Yuhu aside and said, "You can really cause trouble for me, why can't you be smarter? Are extra-high-level courses easy to mess with?"
Zhao Yuhu had a hard time saying that he was acting in accordance with the order. Now that he had stabbed Lou Zi, he might be the one to take the blame!
Jiang Xinyu looked at him, softened his tone, and said, "Of course, I can't blame you entirely for this. Resistance elements are everywhere, so you should be careful. If the Japanese are blamed, I'll take care of it for you!"
"Thank you, captain."
"You are the person I brought here from the police station. If I don't say a few words to you in front of outsiders, it will make people think I am partial. Do you understand?"
"I see."
Zhao Yuhu hesitated for a moment and said: "Captain, I just got off the inspection carriage. What do you think is inside?"
Jiang Xinyu lit a cigarette and said casually: "Could it be a cart full of gold ingots?"
"You're right, it's almost the same as a gold ingot, it's the price of a car!"
"Oh, it's not surprising that the bank's car is loaded with money. Maybe it's military pay that's being deposited."
"Captain, I don't quite understand. Are the royal army's military pay in legal currency?"
"Is there legal currency in the car?"
"No, the carton I opened is full of brand-new French currency!"
"Impossible, you must have misunderstood and mistook the China Reserve Bonds as legal tender!"
"Captain, I swear I read it correctly, it is indeed legal currency..."
Jiang Xinyu interrupted him and said: "If you want to live a few more years, you must learn to bury some secrets in your heart!"
After Zhao Yuhu thought about it carefully, he broke out in a cold sweat and said: "You are right, I did see it wrong. It is not legal currency, but China Reserve Bonds."
Jiang Xinyu threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stamped it out, and said, "It's not surprising that I misread it. Both China Reserve Bank notes and French currency are printed with the image of the former Prime Minister, so they are very similar."
Zhao Yuhu agreed obediently. Jiang Xinyu raised his wrist and glanced at his watch and said, "Keep a close eye on it. I'll go to Minister Road to have a look..."
Before that, Jiang Xinyu read a lot of financial books. He learned about the uses of acid-free paper, color-changing ink and watermarks, which are all related to printing money!
Ning Zhaowei showed up at the Readers' Association that night. He probably had some key technical issues and wanted to find Frank for final verification. After all, top students from the Department of Finance at the University of Bonn are still very trustworthy.
Recently, a large number of counterfeit banknotes have been found in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. Whether it is printing or feeling, it is almost as real as real banknotes!
It is not possible for ordinary people to achieve this level of money printing technology. It requires perfect technical processes and the guidance of financial experts.
This is a serious case that disrupts financial order. There are various signs that the counterfeit banknotes are likely to come from the Japanese-occupied areas. However, due to the inability to conduct in-depth investigations, the exact target has not been found.
After a comprehensive analysis of the two incidents, Jiang Xinyu quickly concluded that what Ning Zhaowei and Kato were plotting was to manufacture counterfeit banknotes and then secretly transport them to the Kuomintang-controlled areas to artificially create financial chaos in an attempt to start with the economy and completely overthrow the National Government.
!
The next day, the detective team headquarters.
"Ring, ring, ring!" The phone on the table rang.
Jiang Xinyu picked up the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
"Captain Jiang, how was the effect of last night's surprise inspection?" Hattori Hikoo was on the other end of the phone.
"Report to Major, a total of three suspicious vehicles were seized and six people were arrested. I will arrange interrogation immediately."
"Very good, this kind of action must continue so that the rebels have no foothold in Yanjin!"
"yes!"
"Also, I heard that your people had a conflict with the Special High School last night?"
"This matter is a humble responsibility. I failed to restrain my subordinates. Fortunately, I arrived in time and did not cause more serious consequences."
"Who was inspecting the vehicle?"
"Zhao Yuhu."
"What did he find out?"
"He only said that he found a box of storage coupons."
"Is this Zhao Yuhu trustworthy?"
"He has been with me for four years, and I think there is no problem."
"Well...Deputy Section Chief Kato called me just now. He didn't mean to blame me, but he just told Zhao Yuhu to keep his mouth shut. He was not allowed to mention what happened last night again!"
"clear!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xinyu glanced at the time. It was now a quarter past 11. He picked up the phone and dialed the newspaper's number.
"Excuse me, is Editor Li Song here?"
"Wait a mininute."
After a while, Li Xiance's voice came from the phone: "Hello, I'm Li Song."
"Mr. Li, it's me, Jiang Xinyu."
"Oh, it's Captain Jiang, is there something wrong?"
"If it's convenient, I'd like to get that gift."
"Conveniently, when will you come over?"
"At noon."
"Can."
"Where shall we meet?"
"There is a snack bar diagonally across from the newspaper office. I just wanted to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."
"Mr. Li, you're welcome. Okay, see you later."
"see you later."
Ten minutes later, in the snack bar.
Jiang Xinyu and Li Xiance were sitting opposite each other. The waiter came over and said, "What would you like to eat?"
Li Xiance: "Captain Jiang, even though this store is not big, the braised and roasted pork they make is top notch!"
Jiang Xinyu smiled and said: "The guest does as the host does."
Li Xiance said to the waiter: "Two bowls of braised pork belly and a platter of side dishes, that's all."
"Two bowls of braised pork and a platter of side dishes!" the waiter shouted to the kitchen.
