When Xie Xuan arrived at the Secret Service Department, Li Junshi specially called him over.
Li Junshi handed Xie Xuan a cigarette and said casually: "Recently, Shancheng has not dared to take action again."
Whether it was the announcement in the newspaper or the fact that the Secret Service actually dared to kill the hostages, Yamashiro was scared anyway. If Shancheng dares to use bloody methods, he will shoot the hostages to see who can kill whom.
"This is a good thing. It shows that they are afraid of the director's tactics."
Li Junshi asked: "What do you think about the mountain city looking for someone to be a peacemaker?"
Xie Xuan said: "I will listen to the director on this matter."
Li Junshi waved his hand: "I really want to hear your opinion."
He was very satisfied that Xie Xuan did not compete with him for power in the Secret Service.
But this time, he wanted to hear Xie Xuan's opinion.
"Then I'll tell you. Director, don't be offended if you don't agree."
"That's what you say."
"Our goal is to issue China Reserve Bonds. As long as Shancheng no longer causes sabotage, the goal will be achieved. At least, we have an explanation for Dean Zhou and Mr. Wang. Of course, we can also make some demands."
Li Junshi asked: "Request? What request?"
Could it be that Shancheng should be asked to compensate him some money? That's impossible, right?
Xie Xuan said: "For example, if we arrest the employees of Shancheng Bank this time, we may let Shancheng's four major banks accept business in new legal currencies from now on."
The Secret Service even dared to kill people from the four major industries in the mountain city. What else could they not dare to do?
Unless all Shancheng banks withdraw from Shenpu, they will eventually have to accept the business of China Reserve Bank.
Rather than being forced to accept the China Reserve Bond business, it is better to take a step back now. This also shows that Shancheng is sincere.
In occupied areas, it is impossible for mountain towns to restrict the issuance of China Reserve Bonds.
Just like those merchants who suppress China Reserve Bonds, they will soon be forced to accept China Reserve Bonds.
Once China Reserve Bonds circulate in the market, coupled with policy guidance, for example, only China Reserve Bonds will be collected when paying taxes. People in occupied areas must pay taxes. Everyone must prepare some China Reserve Bonds, right?
When Li Junshi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "This is indeed a good idea."
Xie Xuan said: "They will definitely use methods to fight back, but as long as they can accept the new legal currency, everything will not be a problem."
Li Junshi asked: "One more thing, why does Du Shengyue only contact Wu Guigui?"
During this period, Wu Guogui worked very hard, arresting people and killing people. He was almost as energetic as when he first established the Secret Service.
"The person Wu Guogui arrested is also a member of the gang. It is reasonable for Du Shengyue to contact him. No matter what, the director still needs the nod for this matter."
"That's not necessarily the case. President Zhou of Nanjing also called and asked about the situation of the employees of Shancheng Bank. Although he did not say it explicitly, he revealed that the financial market of Shenpu must be stabilized as soon as possible. How to stabilize the financial market as soon as possible? Isn't it just to make peace with Shancheng? Well."
It seems that Li Junshi is responsible for this matter, but there are Zhou Hai at the top and Wu Baogui at the bottom. In addition, there is also pressure from the Japanese. Li Junshi actually has no choice. He can take the opportunity to delay for a while, but he cannot delay it for a long time.
This made Li Junshi feel like he was being coerced. It was Shancheng who took the initiative to make peace, but he felt like he had to make peace.
Xie Xuan said: "The stability of the financial market is indeed very important. No matter what, we won, not only did the mountain city bow its head, but also allowed the mountain city's banks to accept the business of the new legal currency. The Secret Service has achieved such results, and Director Zhou is Don’t we need to give commendations and rewards? After all, our bombs need costs, and our personnel also need incentives.”
Li Junshi smiled and said, "You can have this."
After Zhou Hai received the application from the Secret Service, he specially approved 30,000 new French currency for the Secret Service.
According to official standards, these 30,000 new legal tenders can be exchanged for 60,000 old legal tenders issued by Mountain City.
Although Zhou Hai gave the money, he also expected what the Secret Service would do. He asked the people in the Secret Service to spend all the rewards after receiving them.
If someone else holds a China Reserve Certificate, it may be a piece of waste paper that is not recognized by the merchant. No matter how much money you have, you can't buy anything.
But when people from the Secret Service go shopping, one side has a pistol and the other side has China Reserve Bonds. Do you want bullets or the currency of the new government?
Although Zhou Hai was generous, his purpose was also to promote China Reserve Bonds.
After these incidents, China Reserve Bonds gradually began to circulate in Shenpu.
Of course, both banks and merchants are actually inhibited.
For example, if any of the four major banks in Shancheng want to deposit deposit certificates, they will tell you in advance that no matter how much money is deposited, there will be no interest.
If depositors can accept no interest, the staff of the four major banks will collect your money, and when you come to withdraw it in the future, it will still be the same money.
In other words, the bank only helps you keep the China Reserve Bonds and does not use them.
As for merchants, they refuse to accept China Reserve Bonds unless there is really no other way.
It originally cost 100 French currency to exchange for 50 Central Reserve coupons, but soon, the legal currency and Central Reserve coupons were equal in value.
In other words, within a few months, the China Reserve Bonds depreciated by half in value.
However, the official still insists that one hundred legal currency can only be exchanged for fifty central reserve bonds.
There is a huge loophole here. Private China Reserve Bonds are equivalent to legal tender, but China Reserve Bank makes China Reserve Bonds twice as expensive as legal tender.
As a result, many people took the China Reserve Bonds to the Reserve Bank of China to exchange for legal tender. They took the legal tender and went to the market to exchange for China Reserve Bonds of the same value, and then went to the Reserve Bank of China to exchange for legal tender.
If you spin around like this, the money in your hand will be doubled in no time.
People with a keen sense of smell can act on the wind and get 100% profit. Isn't this much better than selling cigarettes?
Xie Xuan did not participate in such speculation. He just sent sample coins of China Reserve Bonds to Shancheng, hoping that Shancheng could forge them.
Didn’t the occupied areas vigorously promote China Reserve Bonds? When the time comes, businessmen in Chongqing will grab a large amount of China Reserve Bonds to buy supplies. At that time, it will not only undermine the promotion of China Reserve Bonds, but also benefit the mountainous city.
Of course, counterfeiting currency is not that simple. The Nanjing government's China Reserve Bank bonds use Japanese technology, are beautifully printed, and have bright ink. The cost of counterfeiting is very high.
Dai Li really wanted to forge the China Reserve Certificates, but unfortunately, Shancheng's technical strength was not strong, so it would be difficult to forge them.
Xie Xuan wanted Zhou Hai to help, but Dai Li stopped him.
Because the China Reserve Bonds were not printed in Nanjing, but were printed in Japan and then shipped to China.
Even mountain cities don't have such technology. How can the Wang Puppet Government have talents in this field?
Don't think that Zhou Hai agreed to cooperate with Shancheng and just put conditions on him.
People from the Juntong Nanjing Station went straight to Zhou Hai and asked Zhou Hai to cooperate and assist the Juntong operation.
Dai Li was shocked at that time. No matter what, Zhou Hai was the number three figure in Wang's puppet government. How could he accept the idea of military control of Nanjing District?
