"Mechanical safe, can you open it?" Uncle Hai's safe is behind a painting in the study.
Jiang Lang took Lei Weidong into the study room of Uncle Hai's villa, picked up an oil painting, pointed at the mechanical password safe at the back, and turned around to ask.
"No, what about you?" Lei Weidong shrugged, saying that he was a soldier, not a thief, and couldn't open a safe. If he wanted to, Jiang Lang would do it.
"Neither can I!" Jiang Lang spread his hands, "How about we take the whole safe away."
"It's better not to use it." Lei Weidong shook his head, "The safe is built into the wall. It makes too much noise, and when the police came to check, it was also troublesome to find that the safe was missing. So we should destroy our main target, the computer. Just leave.”
The main reason for giving up the safe was that the contents had been transferred to the portable space by Lei Weidong.
There are quite a lot of things, including several real estate certificates, nine large checks, millions in cash, mainly US dollars, British pounds and Canadian dollars, as well as several documents and some valuable jewelry.
Not to mention jewelry, they are all diamonds, gems, jade and the like.
The information is estimated to be the records of Uncle Hai's arms transactions and the records of bribing some high-ranking officials or congressmen. It is not very useful to Lei Weidong, but he can put it away first and then throw it out when the time is right to attack the people of Eagle Country.
"Okay!" Jiang Lang nodded. It was not like he was moving a safe. Lei Weidong's retreat was exactly what he meant.
One of them carried the host computer, and the other carried the monitor. They also took away all the accessories such as mouse and keyboard, so that outsiders would not know that there was a computer here.
After jumping out of the yard with the monitor on his shoulders, he came to the car and put it in the trunk. Jiang Lang asked, "Where to go next?"
"Of course I went back and cracked it." Lei Weidong stuffed the console, keyboard and mouse into the trunk, closed it, and replied.
"You can also hack computers."
"Of course I will. My level is second in Xiangjiang, and no one dares to be first." Lei Weidong said proudly, patting his chest.
"Really!" Jiang Lang shrugged, expressing disbelief.
He admits that Lei Weidong's marksmanship is great, but he doesn't believe it even if his computer skills are advanced. This is high technology and requires special learning.
"I'll take you to a place not far away." Seeing that Jiang Lang didn't believe it, Lei Weidong didn't waste any time. He started the car and quickly arrived at a villa a few kilometers away.
"This is your house." Jiang Lang asked after seeing Lei Weidong skillfully open the door and drive in.
"Don't underestimate me, I am the king of land in Xiangjiang. I have dozens of villas like this." Lei Weidong said with a smile.
"With dozens of villas, how can you, a policeman, have so much money? You can't do corruption. If you can't get so much money from corruption, how can you be rich yourself?" Jiang Lang was a little confused.
"Do you want to ask me why I am a policeman if I am so rich?" Seeing Jiang Lang's doubts, Lei Weidong smiled, "In Xiangjiang, it is easy to become a leek if you have money but no power, and it is easy to fall into passivity if you have power but no money.
Only those with money and power are the real bosses.
The reason why the people of Eagle Country are the boss is because they have power, they have a garrison in Xiangjiang and control the police, they are rich, and the century-old bank gives them countless benefits every year.
If we Chinese want to truly be our own country, we must regain these two things.
The mainland is responsible for the garrison, and we have to rely on ourselves for the police.
As for money, when I mature and the mainland develops, the first one to take action will be the Centennial Bank. Even if it is not closed down, I will take the bank back from the hands of the Eagle Country people. "
After driving the car into the garage, Lei Weidong and Jiang Lang reported the computer to the study room on the second floor. After connecting it to the power supply and the Internet cable, Lei Weidong turned on the computer.
"You can take a rest when you are tired. I have to work." Lei Weidong pointed to the sofa and motioned to Jiang Lang to rest on it and not disturb him.
"Let me see how you transfer the money out of your account. I'm very curious about this." Jiang Lang, who had been tired for a day, saw Lei Weidong start to play with the computer. He was not tired anymore and wanted to see how Lei Weidong worked.
"You think it's okay, don't talk to influence me." Lei Weidong clicked, and after some operations on the computer, nine accounts soon appeared on the screen, which were found in various banks. They were obviously Uncle Hai's secret accounts, where his personal information was stored. All family property.
HSBC, Standard Chartered, Citigroup, Bank of America, and of course the most important ones are UBS.
"It's so easy to figure out." Looking at the account displayed on the computer screen, Jiang Lang didn't believe his eyes.
"The computer hard drive has a memory function. Unless it is mechanically damaged, the information inside can be retrieved, but most people can't." Lei Weidong shrugged, saying that it was very simple.
"What should I do next? I don't know the account password. Are we going to attack the banking system?" Jiang Lang asked, as he also knew a little about computers.
"Same as before, the logged-in account and password will also be saved, but it's not easy to deal with compared to the account number. I have to look for it bit by bit. If I can't find it, I will attack the bank system." Lei Weidong held back his mouth. .
"The banking system can really be broken." Jiang Lang asked.
"Of course, but every bank's firewall is different. Some are difficult and some are easy." Lei Weidong nodded and explained:
“It’s just that it’s not that easy to transfer large amounts of money to an account. If you don’t have an account, if you transfer money from the bank casually, it will be easily tracked by the system and the money will be frozen.
Having an account is different. You can deceive the bank login system into thinking that I have used the correct password to log in, and transfer the money out through formal transfer procedures.
Since there is no owner, there is no need to worry about the bank tracking you. "
As he spoke, Lei Weidong started typing on the computer.
The screen was immediately occupied by the DOS screen. After about ten minutes, a string of numbers appeared on the screen.
"Is this the password for the account just now?" Jiang Lang asked.
"You'll know after you try it." Lei Weidong tapped on the computer, logged into the interface of Standard Chartered Bank, entered his account number and password, and entered quickly.
"Your boss is really rich. One Standard Chartered Bank account has more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars, which is much more than I expected." As he spoke, Lei Weidong's hands did not stop and he quickly transferred the money to Swiss Bank. An anonymous account.
"This is too simple." Seeing that more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars were obtained so easily, Jiang Lang couldn't believe his eyes.
"Luckily, I found the account password in the computer. If I didn't find it, I would be in trouble. I don't know how many of the nine accounts can find the password." Lei Weidong held back his mouth and started to operate again.
"You get busy, I'm going to bed." Seeing the DOS screen appear again on the screen, Jiang Lang, who felt bored, was tired. He washed his face, leaned on the sofa, and fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Lang sat up with a sigh of relief and saw that Lei Weidong was still busy in front of the computer. He looked outside the window and saw that it was already broad daylight. Apparently Lei Weidong had been busy all night.
"How!" Looking at Lei Weidong, whose eyes were a little red, Jiang Lang asked.
"There are three accounts that have not been broken out." Lei Weidong breathed a sigh of relief and said with some depression, "Four account passwords were found in the computer, two of them were broken into the bank system, and I spent most of the night to find the remaining three. I found a clue, it seems my computer skills are behind the times.”
In the 1980s, computer technology was developing at its fastest pace, and there was a major breakthrough almost every year. When he was chasing Zhu Tao, Lei Weidong felt that it was easy to crack the banking system, and there was no difficulty at all.
Now, not to mention those two Swiss bank accounts, even those of HSBC, Lei Weidong has not broken into it. It seems that computer technology must be upgraded, otherwise, in a few years, Lei Weidong will not have the protection systems of those small private banks. There's a solution.
"If you're not satisfied with having six accounts, you want to take them all."
Seeing Lei Weidong's frustrated look, Jiang Lang was a little amused. It was finally time to see Lei Weidong's mistake. Otherwise, if you keep looking at its success, you will think that the other party is a god and not a human being.
"How much did it cost?" Jiang Lang asked.
"More than 67 million U.S. dollars, more than 190 million Hong Kong dollars, more than 28 million British pounds, and more than 13 million Canadian dollars. Your boss is indeed a big arms dealer. He has been working for decades. Arms trade.
I estimate that his net worth is close to or even over 300 million U.S. dollars. It’s a pity that not all of them have been found. The remaining three accounts should be relatively large. "Lei Weidong said with regret.
"That's a lot, more than 100 million U.S. dollars." When Jiang Lang heard that the harvest exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars, a surprised expression flashed across Jiang Lang's face, but he quickly returned to normal and asked, "How can I get this money?" For processing, should it be placed in a Swiss bank, or?”
"Of course we'll handle it as soon as possible." Lei Weidong took the phone on his desk and dialed the number Section Chief Yang left for him.
"Chief Yang, I'm Lei Weidong, the one from Xiangjiang, do you remember?"
"Of course I remember. Mr. Lei, you are a big shot. How could I forget you." After so many years of intelligence work, Section Chief Yang's ears are very sensitive and he can tell who the other party is as soon as he hears the voice.
"Chief Yang, has Li Jie reported anything to you about the hospital?"
"I have reported it. The superiors have approved it, allowing Li Jie and others to assist your police in solving the case. It is really a heinous crime to report that the arsenal is located in the hospital."
"Well, Chief Yang, what I told Li Jie is that you know about the money."
"I know, Li Jie also reported this. In principle, we cannot accept the money, but considering that this is the love of the Hong Kong compatriots, we reluctantly accepted it.
What, is there something wrong? Section Chief Yang asked nervously.
In the 1980s, the mainland's pursuit of foreign exchange reached a crazy stage. Leaders at every level shouted the slogan of earning foreign exchange through exports. As long as they can earn foreign exchange, anything that is not related to the lifeline of the economy can be sold.
Although tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars is not a lot, it is still a large amount of income.
"Chief Yang, you know the latest action, right? Li Jie must have reported it to you." Lei Weidong said.
"Yes! Congratulations on solving a big case." Section Chief Yang smiled.
"Last night, Uncle Hai, an arms dealer second only to Johnny Wang in strength, was killed, and I got his bank account and transferred a lot of money from it."
Lei Weidong spoke slowly, leaving the other party time to think.
"Strictly speaking, this money is black money and cannot be seen in Hong Kong, so I plan to move to the mainland to launder it."
"Go to the mainland to launder money, Mr. Lei. The handling fees for money laundering are quite high." Section Chief Yang smiled deliberately, "How much is the money?"
"A lot, Section Chief Yang, I know that the general rule of money laundering is to split the money 50-50, so I will suffer a little loss and split it 40-60, you four and I six, help me launder the money." Lei Weidong issued. own conditions.
"Mr. Lei, it's obvious that I am at a loss for the 40-60% account, how can I say it is you who is at a loss?" Section Chief Yang disagreed with this distribution plan.
"I am not going to transfer this money out when it reaches the mainland. I am going to invest it in the mainland and treat it as supporting national construction. Chief Yang, you know the mainland's foreign exchange exchange ratio. It is said to be six, but in fact it is not even three."
In the 1980s, especially the first few years, the official and black market exchange ratios for foreign exchange, especially the U.S. dollar, were really deceptive, with a gap of several times.
"Don't talk so much, Mr. Lei. You know the price level in the mainland. It's not even one-tenth of the price level in Xiangjiang. Investing in building a factory is to make money. This money should be divided at least 50-50, otherwise the superiors will not agree.
Otherwise, if you have a lot of money, I will help you apply for the most favorable investment conditions, and the three-year tax exemption will become the five-year tax exemption. "Section Chief Yang set out his own conditions.
"Five years of tax exemption after the establishment of the factory. This is a good condition. Chief Yang, then it will be split 50-50, but I have a condition." Lei Weidong said.
"What are the conditions, Mr. Lei? If you can, I will do it." Section Chief Yang said.
"I have a brother named Jiang Lang. He was a big help in getting this money. I will also need his help if I can get Johnny Wang's money later. I promised him a 1% commission.
This money needs to be paid in foreign exchange from the mainland, and we each contribute half. "Lei Weidong pushed Jiang Lang out.
"Okay, our policy is to get rewards for meritorious service, and we can't let our friends suffer, but I want to see him before transferring the money." Section Chief Yang was silent for a while and said, "Also, Mr. Lei, can you tell me how much money is there? ?”
"There is not much money, only more than 67 million US dollars, more than 28 million British pounds, more than 13 million Canadian dollars and more than 190 million Hong Kong dollars."
"This money is not much, it is more than 100 million US dollars." The amount Lei Weidong said shocked Section Chief Yang, and said repeatedly, "Mr. Lei, I need to report to my superiors, give me ten minutes. I’ll call you in ten minutes.”
"Okay, I'll wait for your call." Lei Weidong smiled and hung up the phone.
"How?" Jiang Lang asked.
"It's almost done. Don't worry, your share is indispensable. But after the matter is over, you have to go to the mainland with me. Section Chief Yang wants to see you." Lei Weidong said.
"Okay, I've wanted to visit the mainland for a long time, but I never had the chance." When Jiang Lang mentioned the north, he fell into deep thought, and the smile he always wore disappeared.
"My ancestral home is Taishan. When I was a child, my mother often said that I wanted to go home and visit. Unfortunately, I never had the chance until my death. When I go back this time, I want to visit my hometown in his place. I can't forget my roots."
