Chapter 228: A Shocking Case (Seeking Points, Pushing and Receiving Reviews)

There is still a big difference between the Golden Fort and the so-called Fort in general.

The so-called fort is actually a miniature version of the city.

But Fort Gold is not.

The Golden Fort is a mountain surrounded by many stones.

Of course, such a mountain is not an ordinary mountain, such a mountain is a real golden mountain.

Near the enclosed stone wall, there is also a relatively flat place.

The so-called Golden Fort Institution, the so-called Golden Guard Institution, and even other living and entertainment venues are all set up in this relatively flat place.

However, the most famous place in this relatively flat place is not the Golden Fort institution, nor the so-called Golden Guard Institution, nor other places of life and entertainment, but the vault.

At present, the so-called treasury includes the business treasury set up by the bank's business institutions for handling cashier business, the central treasury set up by the management bank to handle the internal cash transfer of the bank under its jurisdiction, and the fund issuance vault set up by the People's Bank of China as an agent for the currency issuance business. The custody scope of the vault includes RMB and foreign currency cash, gold and silver, securities, ticket samples, real and fake currency identification manuals, counterfeit money, and custody of valuables. All the custodial items within the scope of the treasury custody must be classified and itemized to establish custody account books, and the accountant shall establish corresponding on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet account books, record them in a timely manner, check them in a timely manner, and check each other. At present, the largest vault in the world is 33 Liberty Street, a few steps away from Wall Street, the financial capital of the world, and there is a 12-story granite Italian-style building, which is the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, one of the 12 regional branches of the Federal Reserve System (equivalent to the central bank) of the United States. At a depth of 25 meters under the building, there is the largest vault in the world. The New York Fed vault is located 25 meters underground. It is 15 meters below sea level and about 10 meters below the New York subway system. In the nearly 80 years since the vault was built, it has never been robbed. The normal access to the vault is only a steel door, which weighs 90 tons and is nearly 3 meters high, and the bomb cannot shake it in the slightest. Only about 5% of this gold is owned by the U.S. government, with the rest belonging to more than 60 countries and international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund. This quintessential Renaissance palace-style building is more of a visit than the surrounding Nassau and Maiden streets, which are full of life. But American flags, cameras and heavily armed police officers at the gate remind people that it is clearly the location of a heavily disposed institution. This is the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Its five underground floors are 15 meters below sea level, and it contains the gold reserves of many countries in the world. Some of the staff who come in and out of here are dressed in suits and leather shoes, and some are dressed casually. But most of them are in a hurry. And they have to go through the 'waist card' check. Ordinary people can also visit here, but they usually need to make an appointment 1 to 3 months in advance. The gold bricks are stacked separately in many storage rooms. There are a total of 122 storage rooms, the largest of which can store nearly 110,000 gold bricks, which are stacked up to 3 meters high, 3 meters wide and more than 5 meters long. More than 7,000 tonnes of gold were stored in the entire gold bank. It accounts for about a quarter of the world's official gold reserves of 29,300 tonnes.

However, in ancient times, the vault was, as the name suggests, a warehouse where gold was stored. If the warehouse is filled with silver, it is naturally a silver warehouse.

The reason for the establishment of the vault is also because the Golden Fort is far away from the local city. If there is a little bit of gold, hand it over. Security is also not guaranteed. Therefore, the mined gold is stored in the gold warehouse, and many people ship it together when there is more gold. At the same time, a large number of officers and soldiers were sent to escort them, so that the safety was easier to guarantee.

After all, as long as it is not an era of war, it is still very rare for bandits who dare to rob officers and soldiers.

This vault is divided into two parts: the inner vault and the outer vault.

The inner warehouse only allows people to enter and exit the golden pit, and even the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard only check and count the actual quantity of inventory goods on a regular or temporary basis, that is, in order to grasp the flow of goods (inbound, in the warehouse, and out of the warehouse), the actual quantity of the existing items in the warehouse is checked with the quantity recorded in the custody account, so as to accurately grasp the inventory quantity. You can go in during the check-up.

The outer treasury is naturally the patrol place of the Golden Guard.

In this way, the people of the Golden Pit and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard have become a relationship of mutual supervision.

Obviously, people in ancient times understood the dangers of self-theft by prison guards, and they also knew that they took measures to prevent prison guards from stealing.

It's the inventory routine inspection of the Golden Fort again.

The management of the Golden Pit was in front, and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard were in the back, and they began to take inventory one by one.

Since it is a routine check-up, many people look careless.

After all, the routine inspection of the Golden Castle has been carried out many times, and nothing has happened all the time.

However, during today's routine inspection, the management personnel of the Golden Pit and the officers and men of the Golden Guard all had a bad premonition.

For what?

Because, just when I opened the vault, I felt that the inside of the vault was as bright as the outside of the vault.

This is the reason why the management of the Golden Pit and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard have a bad premonition, because the lighting device in the vault is nothing more than a few pieces of Ming Tile [a translucent shell of oysters, mussels, etc., ground into thin sheets, embedded in windows or canopies to obtain light. "Zhaoqing Mansion Chronicles: Products": "Oyster light, out of the Yangjiang sea, oysters of other species, no meat, cure their shells, apply the window masculet, thin and bright, called Ming tile." "To put it in layman's terms, Mingwa is crushed with mussel shells and processed into pieces of glass that are inches in size and slightly convex in the middle. Mingwa is a traditional handicraft product before the birth of glass, which has been in the architecture of our country for a long time. That's it, so no matter what, the vault has a little bit of a dark feeling.

But now??

As a result, the managers of the Golden Pit and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard looked at the roof of the vault, but they saw a big hole exposed on the roof of the vault.

Looking at the ground in the vault, it was empty, and the gold ore worth thousands of taels of gold that was originally in the vault was gone.

Suddenly, the managers of the Golden Pit and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard all turned blue.

After all, with such a huge amount of gold stolen, everyone in the Golden Castle is inextricably linked.

As a result, the people of the Golden Pit began to look for clues inside the Golden Castle.

The officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard were even more probeing, and at the same time, the Golden Guard sent some officers and soldiers to search for clues to solve the case.

The hard work paid off, and the officers and soldiers of the Golden Guard soon learned of the rumor that a young lady from a very rich family who eloped with someone in her own family (the Seven Fairies were mistaken for a young lady from a very rich family who eloped with someone in her own family) took out a gold ore worth four or five thousand taels of gold.
