Chapter 102 The beginning of the story
After breakfast the next day, Gangmura Yanji took Colonel Yamazaki and the merchant surnamed Li again and continued to investigate.
When I came to a building with the Bank of East Asia, I found that many people were queuing up, all of whom were holding silver dollars, fiat currency, even Japanese yen, US dollars and other foreign currencies to exchange for a new currency. I had never seen this new currency, Neji Komura, and I was confused about what country this currency came from.
The East Asian Bank of China knows that it was founded by the father of Wu Yuanliang, a Chinese American, who is Wu Siren. It is said that there are many Japanese shareholders, and the background of these Japanese shareholders is quite not simple. They are either the owners of large estates in Brazil and other places, or the major shareholders of heavy industry companies such as Mitsubishi, Kawasaki, and Fuji, and several others are said to be members of the Japanese royal family.
The world is so ridiculous. For businessmen, there is never a saying of right or wrong between right and wrong, only the supreme demand for interests.
"Mr. Li, which country did the currency you exchanged issued?" Gangmura Yanji asked curiously.
"I can't say this. It seems that it is said that it was issued by the Far East Bank, and it is called Huayuan. Brother Ning. This Huayuan has more value-added than that of the fiat currency. Although it has only been issued recently, it has been widely circulated in many places, especially in Yuzhou. Everyone has almost stopped using oceans and fiat currencies. Yesterday you didn't pay attention. Now vendors who travel south and north to do business in Yuzhou are all using Huayuan to settle."
A businessman named Li showed several Huayuans to Gangmura Ningji. The quality of the printing and manufacturing is very exquisite, and you can tell at a glance that it is difficult to imitate.
When Kamura Yanji heard this, he immediately became interested. As a general who is known for his erudition and knowledge in Japan, he certainly knew the importance of finance to the economy.
Kazumura Niji asked: "This is just a currency issued by a private bank. Are you not afraid of any problems in the future?"
The merchant surnamed Li said solemnly: "We believe in General Wu, a great hero in the War of Resistance Against Japan, and also the financial resources of Commander Wu's family. Almost all stores in Yuzhou do not charge fiat currency, at most cash registers. This Huayuan can be directly exchanged with the US dollar in any Far East bank. The fiat currency has been depreciating now, and the military tickets of the Japanese are even more unreliable. We merchants are optimistic about General Wu and his family. It is said that the Wu family has more than 100 companies of various types in North America alone, and the benefits are very good. Mr. Wu Yuanliang is a friend of the US President."
Kaangmura Yanji pretended to be moved: "Yes, the Wu family is too rich and has a wide network of contacts, so they will only become stronger and stronger in the future."
The merchant surnamed Li nodded and said, "Actually, we merchants all hope that Commander Wu would drive away the Japanese as soon as possible so that we will have a good life. Brother Ning, in Yuzhou, there are food, chemical daily necessities, foreign fire, gray, cloth, and clothing and other short-term items. The stores sold only require Huayuan to settle in Huayuan. Therefore, if you do business here, you have to exchange more Huayuan."
After listening to it, Gangmura Yanji also exchanged some Huayuan. He picked out a Huayuan with the largest denomination of 100 yuan and started to check it. He pulled it hard and jumped around. He knew it was not an ordinary paper at a glance. Then he followed the instructions of the merchant surnamed Li to observe in the sunshine and found that in addition to the full version of the ancient Chinese coins watermark, there was also a metal wire.
Kazumura Niji asked in surprise: "How did this be done? It's so amazing!"
The businessman surnamed Li grabbed his head and smiled and said, "I don't know this. It's probably the American empire's technology."
Kazumura Yasuji exclaimed: "It's difficult for others to imitate this alone, not to mention these colorful inks and uneven patterns."
Ningji Gangmura didn't know that although Wu Siren didn't know much about financial business, he knew a lot about anti-counterfeiting of banknotes. In his previous life, he participated in cracking many cases of making counterfeit banknotes.
Several people walked out of the Far East Bank and were still discussing the various developments in Yuzhou, and praised Wu Siren very much.
At this time, Gangmura Yanji saw two young men walking out of a building across the street, holding an enamel washbasin, filled with towels, soap and other items.
Both of them had smiles on their faces, and one of them said excitedly: "Brother Luo, you are a model in the industry now. You will be awarded a fifth-level worker next month. Now your salary will rise again."
Another young man smiled and said, "Isn't you the same? Director Charlie said that your technology can be ranked first in Rhine."
Kazumura Yanji asked curiously: "What do these two young people do?"
The businessman surnamed Li explained: "They are workers at Luoyi Bearing Factory, and they just received their wages and benefits."
When Gangmura Yanji heard this, he asked in even more confusion: "Is there any large-scale machinery manufacturer in Luoyi?"
The businessman surnamed Li introduced: "It is said that there are several factories that can build bicycles and cars. The human-powered tricycles in the Yuzhou area all come from this factory. But we can't get in, those are military-controlled areas."
"I really didn't expect that! Yuzhou could develop to such a state under the rule of General Wu."
On the way, Gangcun Ningji asked many questions indirectly, and then he reluctantly returned to the hotel.
In the office of the commander of the Yuzhou Tax Police Corps, Wu Sairen was reviewing the documents. At this time, Su Wenqian and Chi Tiecheng knocked on the door and walked in.
"Teacher, you asked Wen Qian and I to come over. Is there any news about Wang Zhaoming? Where is he now?"
Chi Tiecheng looked at Wu Siren and asked impatiently. During this period, the special forces team had been conducting city simulation training, and Chi Tiecheng had always thought that this was preparing for the assassination of Wang Zhaoming.
Wu Siren asked the two of them to sit down and said, "Wang Zhaoming is still in Annan, and the Japanese are very strict in their care. I'm asking you two to come over to have a new mission. This mission is a bit difficult, and you need to bring anti-tank rifles."
Su Wenqian was surprised and said, "Why do you still need to bring this big guy with you? Are the enemy hiding in the tank?"
Wu Siren said in a solemn voice: "Although it is not a tank, it is almost the same. This time Dai Chunfeng asked me through his personal relationship. The target was Muto, the commander of the Japanese garrison of Songjiang, and Bai Songqi, the traitor of the Military Control Commission. The Military Control Commission has sent two groups of personnel, both ending in failure. The vehicles where Muto traveled were installed with bulletproof glass, and ordinary sniper rifles were difficult to penetrate, so you brought anti-tank rifles. Songjiang is the hometown of you two, and you are more familiar with it. You each brought ten special forces members in this operation. Remember that safety first, Muto is the primary target. If Bai Songqi's mission is more difficult, give up. The lives of our special forces personnel are much more precious than him. At worst, Dai Chunfeng will continue to have a headache. Isn't their military control the so-called family law?"
Chi Tiecheng said excitedly: "Teacher, we promise to complete the task."
Wu Siren said angrily: "Tiecheng, you are also a father. You must think twice before doing things. This mission is mainly Wen Qian, and you are the deputy. Don't be dissatisfied. Wen Qian knows how to make choices than you. This time you perform the mission in the name of the Military Control Commission, and use the name of the Military Control Commission Jellyfish Group to the outside world."
