Wind Chaser: Rebirth in the 18th Year of the Republic of China

Chapter 229: Clues to the Counterfeit Currency Case

The people looked at each other, and someone shouted, "Put out the fire first," which led the others to follow suit and say the same answer.

"So, after we put out the fire, we can cook, deposit, exchange and do business as usual. During this time, please register and we will solve the problem of counterfeit currency as soon as possible."

Most of the people remained silent. Although they trusted him, they were also unsure.

"What if this matter cannot be resolved?"

Someone brought up the most pressing issue of the moment.

"If you all suffer losses, feel free to come to the head office and find me, Wei Ruo, to settle the score. You can even overturn the table, pick up a hoe and bury me alive!"

Wei Ruolai's voice was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes swept across everyone with determination.

"Listen to him. This guy seems to be a very down-to-earth person."

A woman saw Wei Ruolai's appearance and was moved by his sincerity, and talked to the people around her.

After hearing this, more and more people nodded and chose to trust.

After solving this problem, Wei Ruolai quickly got down to work.

Wei Ruolai's subordinates couldn't help complaining when they were reporting on their work.

"There are fewer people exchanging money these days, but there are still a lot of counterfeit money circulating in the market. I don't know when the person behind it can be found so that we can solve the problem fundamentally."

"It would be great if we could improve the money printing technology, so that even if someone has bad intentions, they won't be able to make counterfeit money."

Wei Ruolai also felt a little emotional. If there was a technology that could not be imitated, most of the problems could be eliminated.

"Don't even think about it. The lithographic press was smuggled back from the White Area by the bank president at the risk of his life."

The young comrade sighed for a moment and continued, "When our comrade Yaguang designed the banknotes, he didn't have any props like rulers and compasses. He just drew them all by hand."

Wei Ruolai didn't expect that what they lacked was not just external conditions. Compared with the central bank, they even lacked the most basic conditions.

“That’s really hard.”

He sighed and returned to his work again.

At this time, Shen Jinzhen also took people to one of the houses to investigate.

Seeing the stranger enter the house, the man continued working with an impatient look on his face.

"Who are you looking for, little girl? If you have nothing to do, don't delay my business."

Shen Jinzhen took out one of the counterfeit bills, looked at him and asked, "Where did this counterfeit bill come from?"

The man panicked, wondering how he could have counterfeit money. He immediately put down his work, walked forward, and told the whole story.

"I'm a businessman. This was given to me by someone in southern Jiangxi. I didn't know it was fake."

The man's eyes didn't look fake, so Shen Jinzhen continued to ask, "Which customer gave you the counterfeit money?"

Hearing this, the businessman's eyes flickered and he stammered, "I don't know, I have so many customers every day."

Shen Jinzhen looked at him coldly. This man had exchanged a large amount of silver. Even if it was not done by him, it was impossible for him to be completely unaware of it.

She turned around, and just when the boss thought the interrogation was over and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard a clear female voice saying to the person next to her, "Take him away."

Immediately, two people who came in with the little girl grabbed him and pulled him out.

"I remember, I remember."

Seeing that he couldn't fool them, the boss stopped hiding the truth and said, "It was Xingtong Commercial Bank. I exchanged it with them."
