Chapter 298: Five Million
"According to the telegram, five days ago, Tokyo shipped 5 million counterfeit fiat currency, ready to be put on the market of the national control area, to test the water, three days later, 30 million counterfeit fiat currency will be shipped to the pearl, and these 30 million are ready to be put into Chongqing and Yan'an."
Through Wu Mingtao's explanation, Zhou Lin finally knew what was going on.
In October 1940, the Japanese began to counterfeit fiat currency in batches, and after a special process, they turned it into old banknotes and secretly transported them to China.
The plate making of China's fiat currency is not China's technology, and the Nationalist Government does not have this technology, or it uses British and American technology, and American machines involve American paper, many of which are printed in Hong Kong, and there are also direct printing in the United States.
Due to the requirements of color, paper, and plate, although the Japanese have cracked the technology, the printing effect is not very good in terms of being able to imitate the real coin.
So it's only five million, shipped to China.
The plan of the Japanese is as follows: 1. Handing over counterfeit money to Japanese trading companies in China to purchase strategic materials, such trading companies have as many as dozens of companies, including the Chengda Company, with tentacles all over the country, and they have natural ties with the Japanese intelligence organs.
Even some Japanese spies are backstage bosses and shareholders.
After the counterfeit money comes out, it is planned to take a variety of ways to put it into the Chinese market.
Second, counterfeit money, first of all, to the Japanese secret service to buy traitors this fund.
3. Japanese business organizations used this kind of counterfeit money to issue it in large quantities in the occupied areas and mixed it with genuine banknotes.
A large number of fake and real fiat currencies will soon cause chaos in the financial order after entering the national control area.
At the same time, some traitors who get counterfeit banknotes can use them to grab shopping materials, which will cause a large loss of strategic materials and soaring prices.
Just think about it, the Kuomintang was already overstretched, and the investment of this counterfeit currency made the economic situation of the Anti-Japanese War worse.
The scope of the Chongqing Nationalist Government's rule is constantly shrinking, so after the scope of the rear is reduced, a large amount of fiat currency has poured into this narrow range.
Coupled with the fact that the Japanese have contributed to the fire and counterfeited fiat currency, one of its very obvious consequences is to cause inflation in the rear.
Want to stop? Hard! Because the Sino-Japanese battlefield front is staggered, the transportation is convenient.
The plan of the Japanese was to let many wealthy businessmen from the Japanese-occupied areas buy strategic materials on a large scale with fiat currency in the Kuomintang area.
Before the plan began, fearing that Chongqing would distinguish counterfeit money, they first released 5 million counterfeit fiat currency to the Kuomintang to test the waters.
Zhou Lin didn't expect that the person who tested the water was himself.
After Zhou Lin left the deciphering office, he returned home and told Xiangjun what Wu Mingtao said, and asked Xiangjun to report to the central government, and the Japanese would put fake fiat currency and border currency into Yan'an.
Be careful that the Japanese use counterfeit money to buy a large number of daily necessities in Yan'an.
As a result, a large number of strategic materials will be lost in the areas controlled by Yan'an, prices will skyrocket, and the people's lives will be difficult.
After Xiangjun left, Zhou Lin went to the tea house and told Dai Li about the situation through Yang Kun.
Dai Li was still unfamiliar with this economic war, so he had to report it to the old man.
The old man found Song Ziwen and listened to Dai Li's report together.
After listening, Song Ziwen said: "Lao Dai, you don't understand the economy, I'm just telling you one thing, if a large amount of counterfeit money flows into Chongqing, then Chongqing's economy will collapse." ”
When the old man heard this, he said to Dai Li: "We must stop the counterfeit money of the Japanese from flowing into the Kuomintang region, especially Chongqing." ”
Dai Li left the official residence, returned to the office, and sent a secret telegram to Yang Kun that he must sabotage the economic war of the Japanese against the nationalized area.
And Zhou Lin, who returned home, had a headache.
Five million counterfeit coins were invested in Phoenix County, and there is no need to think about it, Phoenix County must be miserable.
Therefore, it is resolute not to allow counterfeit money to enter Phoenix.
But Yamada is waiting to see the effect, and he will definitely urge the counterfeit money to get on the plane.
As soon as you get on the plane, the counterfeit money will definitely be dropped in Phoenix.
Go and inform Cui Haitao and ask him to stop the counterfeit money from entering Phoenix? Hard!
People in the depths of the mountains, who knows that this is counterfeit money? Who knew this would cause an economic crisis in Phoenix? They don't understand.
All they know is that this is money, money that can buy food and drink, and even women's money.
Xiangjun saw Zhou Lin's sad face, and said angrily: "If only a fire burned down." ”
Xiangjun's words made Zhou Lin frown. That's right! It is possible to burn him.
Of course, it is not burned in the pearl, but in Phoenix, and burned in the airdrop.
Zhou Lin told Xiangjun about the situation, and the two worked together.
The last solution was that when the plane dropped the box containing the counterfeit money downward, the counterfeit money in the box would burn into the wind. When it came down to the ground, it was a pile of ashes.
What kind of stuff is used to make it spontaneously combustible? Zhou Lin didn't have incendiary bombs, and even if he did, he couldn't use them, because the bags would definitely be inspected before getting on the plane.
In the end, Zhou Lin finally came up with something - fire phosphorus.
Fire phosphorus is a light yellow or white translucent solid.
It is soft, brittle when cold, and the color of the light becomes darker.
Exposed air produces blue-green phosphorescence and white smoke in dark places.
Spontaneous combustion occurs in moist air and dry air.
Zhou Lin planned to put ten iron needles in the bag, and the iron needles were directly against the bag.
When the parachute descends with the bag, the bag is stretched and stressed, which punctures the bag cloth.
puncture the hole in the bag cloth, and air will enter.
The incoming air will trigger the combustion of fire phosphorus, which will drive the counterfeit money to burn.
It takes enough time from the air to the ground for the counterfeit to burn inside the bag.
At this time, the pilot had already driven the plane away.
When the people on the ground receive the bag, the hot bag will keep them away.
After hearing this, Xiangjun also agreed with this opinion very much.
So, Zhou Lin found a sealed bag and put five million counterfeit coins into the bag.
The bag was large, just full of counterfeit money, and it was quite deeply sealed.
And entrusted by Zhou Lin, Li Ziqiang also asked Yulan to send fire phosphorus powder.
Wait two days, on November 19, Xiaolin called and said that he would come to pick up the money sent to Phoenix Mountain immediately, and the plane would drop it today.
Zhou Lin immediately opened the bag and put the fire phosphorus powder in the middle of the fake money in the bag, there were fake money all around, even if he checked it, he couldn't find it.
Fifteen minutes later, Zhou Lin followed Xiao Lin to the military airport.
Before getting on the plane, Kobayashi opened the bag and found that inside the big bag, the counterfeit money was wrapped in a white nylon.
"You're so careful! Also with two bags. Kobayashi praised.
Zhou Lin replied: "This is money!" Five million dollars. ”
In fact, Zhou Lin's heart was really different: I guessed that he would check, not wrapped in nylon, what should I do if I see that the air spontaneously combusts? Please Baidu "Throw Book Network" Thank you for your support!
