"You're right, these counterfeit coins are indeed different!" Lu Cheng said.
As a staff member of the Guangzhou Political Security Bureau, Lu Cheng has also been involved in counterfeit currency cases. During this period, I dealt with dozens of cases. Although the current trend is that the enemy has begun to use medicinal silver to make counterfeit currency, and the degree of imitation of counterfeit silver coins has skyrocketed, and it is already sixty-seven points similar, but when it comes to banknotes, counterfeit coins are always unmatched and fake, so fake that they are almost useless.
But this counterfeit currency is really unusual, whether it is paper, background color, texture, font, or even watermark... As long as they want to know the special features of Australian banknotes, this counterfeit currency has all the special features.
The only thing that can confirm that it is a counterfeit currency is its denomination: ten yuan. The Senate Central Reserve Bank has never issued banknotes with a denomination greater than one yuan.
Lu Cheng looked over and over again, his face darkening. Said: "I know the origin of this coin."
"how?"
"This is modified from the 1633 version of grain circulation coupons." Lu Cheng said, "It's so smart! It's a shame they could figure it out!"
"Grain circulation coupons?" Yuan Shuzhi looked confused.
"Yes, it only flowed through Hainan in the past."
Although grain circulation coupons were once the legal tender of the Senate before the reform of the commodity system, they were actually only circulated within the actual control area of the Senate, and were extremely rare on the ground in Guangdong and Guangxi. Except for some businessmen who often travel between Guangdong and Qiong, it can be said that most people, including the current local naturalized cadres, have never seen it. This gives counterfeiters an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"So that's it, the real coins have been replaced by fake coins!"
"The enemy is indeed cunning. Seeing that there is no breakthrough in money printing technology, he actually came up with such a trick!" Lu Cheng is not a financial cadre and does not know the specific issuance and circulation of grain circulation coupons, but there is no doubt that the enemy tried to Some of the food circulation coupons that had been abolished were transformed into silver dollar exchange coupons.
Originally, Yuan Shuzhi came to Huizhou just to check for counterfeit medicines. Now that a new trend of counterfeit currency appeared on the road, Lu Cheng had no choice but to pay attention to it and decided to write a related report to Guangzhou first.
"Comrade Lao Yuan, what are you going to do next, where will you stay?"
"I will rest here for a few days to get a feel for the local situation. Then I will leave for Boluo County." Yuan Shu knew, "I plan to be an accountant. I will also be freer."
Luofu Yam City is still a hundred miles away from Huizhou, and even it is sixty or seventy miles away from Boluo County. The investigation team could not find much oil and water in Huizhou Fucheng.
Account making is a profession that has only recently emerged. Because of the new tax system implemented by the Finance and Taxation Bureau to standardize industrial and commercial taxation, small and medium-sized shops that originally just kept a running account found that they were unable to cope with this new tax system and new financial system, and were at a loss. So this business came into being.
At the beginning, only some accountants of the stores had participated in the new tax system and new financial training courses organized by the Finance and Taxation Bureau and then started to work part-time on their own. As the business volume increased, many people who were not accountants but had a little knowledge of writing and abacus began to sign up on their own. Participate in this kind of training, and after you come out, you will do the accounting and tax filing for the store. It has become a completely new industry.
Yuan Shu knew that he had this certificate, so he decided to make a career out of it. The advantage was that he could move around freely and go in and out of shops to solicit business without attracting attention.
"Isn't this medicine market booming? They must have a huge discrepancy in their accounts and are in urgent need of talents like me." Yuan Shuzhi twirled his beard and said, "If you're lucky, they might even invite me to join the team, haha."
"If such a thing really happens, you must discuss it with us in advance." Lu Cheng reminded, "Since they dare to resell the Senate's medicines, they must be extremely evil people."
"Of course, I want to live a few more years. I will never take risks that I shouldn't take." Yuan Shuzhi nodded, "I'll stay in the city for a few days until I'm familiar with the road, and then I'll go It’s not too late to turn around in the pharmaceutical market.”
"Okay, then we will leave for Boluo County a few days earlier. How will we contact you then?"
"Are you going openly under a banner, or are you going secretly?"
"Our public identity is the Cheka's unmanned inspection team, so it must be an open visit to Boro."
"Then I must be staying at Qiwei's inn. I will naturally send you a letter then."
Everywhere the Cheka's flight inspection team arrives, a mailbox will be set up at the place where they stay to accept various denunciation letters. It is very convenient to contact us this way.
The wind is gentle and the sky is clear.
A cargo ship coming from Lingao puffed out clouds and cut through the waves, all the way to the dock outside Guangzhou New World.
According to the shipping schedule, Guo Huiwen arrived at the dock early in the morning, waiting for the arrival of this batch of "special use" medicines. The person in charge of the escort was Wang Liang, a technician from the General Pharmaceutical Factory.
Zheng Mingjiang pointed out that he was asked to come mainly to identify the ingredients of various messy drugs that were seized. Currently, the pharmacy of the Provincial and Hong Kong General Hospital does not have this capability.
The ship came to a stop and the planks were lowered. The passengers on board the ship disembarked one after another. Because this ship is transporting important supplies, it does not sell tickets to the outside world. All people on the ship are naturalized workers.
Guo Huiwen searched the slats with his eyes. After a while, he saw Wang Liang's figure. He immediately waved his arms.
"King Gong!"
"Xiao Guo!"
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Guo Huiwen briefly explained the background. Elder Zheng Ming and Jiang Yuan were on a business trip to Huizhou, and he was here to welcome this batch of "special drugs" on her behalf.
Of course, Zheng Yuanlao did not go to Huizhou, this was just her smokescreen. In order to increase the confusion of the smoke screen, she went directly to Sanshui County a few days ago to further dispel the fog.
"Have you received the telegram from Chief Zheng?"
"Don't worry, since the medicine was requested by Chief Zheng, I will definitely deliver it to Chief Zheng personally." Wang Liang said.
"Okay. But if Director Lin from the Provincial and Hong Kong General Hospital applied for it in the past, how did you deliver it?"
"This is complicated." Wang Liang said, "It depends on what channel it is, what its specific purpose is, and under what name it is applied for."
"Where are the normal hospital medications?"
"There are two channels here. One is for commercial use, both are channels of pharmaceutical companies. Pharmaceutical companies place orders with us. We deliver goods according to the address on the delivery note provided by the pharmaceutical company."
"So, the pharmaceutical company doesn't stock its own goods?"
"Pharmaceutical companies also stock their own goods. However, most of the bulk purchases are shipped directly by our pharmaceutical factory according to the delivery order. This is the Provincial and Hong Kong General Hospital."
"Then, are there any products that you ship directly, not through pharmaceutical companies?"
"Of course, the Provincial and Hong Kong General Hospital will deliver the goods based on the 'transfer order' stamped by the Planning Institute. Wherever the address on the transfer order is, we will send it."
"What about special use like today?"
"For special purposes, you need a receipt from the General Office. Just like the special use that Mr. Lin applied for this time, we need a seal from the General Office before we can deliver the goods. Of course, the goods will be delivered to whoever gets them."
"No need to go through joint logistics channels?" Guo Huiwen asked.
"Lianqin?" Wang Liang was a little confused. "Of course the medicines ordered by Lianqin are through Lianqin's channels, but sometimes they also go through the freight company's channels, depending on the shipping capacity."
Guo Huiwen interrupted him and said: "If the medicine is not from Lianqin, for example, the medicine that is specially used this time or the medicine from the Provincial and Hong Kong General Hospital, will it go through the channel of Lianqin?"
"Why should goods that are not Lianqin go through Lianqin's channel?" Wang Liang was puzzled. "Normal shipments are sent through the freight company - maybe the freight company will rent space on the Lianqin transport ship."
Guo Huiwen thought to himself that this was simply not right! He had no choice but to continue asking: "Not at all?"
"Yes, there are. For example, for 'special use' express delivery, there are joint logistics channels. There are also those that deliver medicines to remote areas. Ordinary transportation companies in non-security areas generally dare not go there, so they can only use joint logistics channels. But these None of them are large.”
The two of them walked and chatted directly to the guest house in the big world. It takes a day or two for the cargo to be unloaded and distributed on the ship, so the drugs cannot be picked up until 48 hours after arriving at the port.
Coming to the big world, Guo Huiwen once again inquired in detail about the pharmaceutical factory's drug delivery procedures and related processes. Although Wang Liang is a technician, he also knows everything about the operation of the pharmaceutical factory. At that moment, he explained in detail how the pharmaceutical factory sells goods, how to ship goods, and what the specific procedures are.
Guo Huiwen recorded this process in detail. He is not a Cheka employee and has never studied finance, but judging from the process Wang Liang described, drug loss can occur through every channel. As long as the enforcement system is not strict.
"Wang Liang, tell me, if someone wants to get medicine from a pharmaceutical factory, can they get it?"
Wang Liang was taken aback and asked: "You mean..."
"I'm just asking casually. You may also know that Zheng Yuanlao is currently checking the loss of medicines. She now wants to find out which channel they are lost through. There are so many distribution channels that it will be difficult to sort them out for a while. Let's start with the source. Let's see."
Wang Liang lowered his head and thought for a long time and said: "I can't guarantee that you will not leak anything. After all, there are so many production links in the workshop. But after packaging and storage, all the inventory has accounts, and the incoming and outgoing must be recorded. There are too many If there is no warehouse management, everyone is responsible. And the warehouse has to take stock every week. There are also procedures for reporting damage and scrapping. After reporting the damage, it will be destroyed on the spot, and scraps are not allowed to leave the factory..."
"So, it's completely impossible to get the medicine without going through normal procedures?"
"Yes, even if you are a veteran, you cannot get medicine directly from the pharmaceutical factory. There must be compliance procedures." Wang Liang said categorically. He asked Guo Huiwen in a strange way: "Didn't Zheng Yuanlao help formulate these systems? When she came to give us training, she repeatedly emphasized the need to strictly abide by the SOP. She also said: 'System, system! A system! Pharmaceutical companies must have strict quality systems to control it!'."
