"Well, it's not bad." Facing Chen Miao, Lao Fan is still a little proud, although he is not as good as Chen Miao's home at No. 18 in Mingyue, but at least it is quiet.

"Not bad." Chen Miao glanced at the books on the shelves, and a few were in Russian, in Shanghai, there were many books in Russian, but many of them were banned.

Lao Fan is a book lover.

He didn't pick at all on this.

"I'm going to boil water...... The kettle was empty, Lao Fan was a little embarrassed, and was about to go downstairs with the kettle, but was stopped by Chen Miao, "No need, I'm not thirsty." ”

"Okay, if I'm not thirsty, I won't burn." Old Fan nodded.

Xiao Qi parked the car and came in, he didn't need Lao Fan to open the door for him at all, he came in by himself, and deliberately stepped on the stairs to make a sound when he went upstairs.

"Let's get down to business."

"Okay." Lao Fan walked over, took the lamp on the desk, put it on the coffee table, removed the lampshade, and then took out a folder from the canvas bag he carried with him.

This is the X-ray that was just irradiated by Itomori's box at the Jishitang Clinic at No. 14 Luojia Lane, because the things are sealed in the mezzanine, and they can only be used to check the contents in this way when they cannot be taken out by force.

It's also a coincidence, if it weren't for the fact that this Jishitang clinic has an old-fashioned X-ray machine, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to do this.

Under the light, the contents of the X-ray film were presented in front of the eyes of the three of them, Lao Fan had tried his best to turn on the power to the maximum, anyway, the box was a dead thing, and it was okay to eat a little more X-rays, if it was a living person, such a large dose and long-term irradiation, it would be a problem.

"Sanshui, you can see it, what is it?" Lao Fan asked.

"Although it is not very clear, it can still be seen that there are four rectangular metal objects here, their thickness is about 0.5 cm, the length is about 15 cm, and the width is about 8 cm......" According to the size of the box, Chen Miao quickly calculated the size of two of them.

Contacting Itosen's identity, Chen Miao's mind quickly flashed with inspiration, and he thought of a possibility, and immediately said: "Lao Fan, is there any money, ten yuan." ”

"What for?" Lao Fan glanced at Chen Miao vigilantly.

"I didn't bring fiat money, do you?" Chen Miao didn't know how to explain it, but when he took it out, he knew what to say.

Lao Fan looked at Chen Miao with a serious face, knowing that this was not a joke, besides, Chen Miao was not short of his little money, he was just an instinctive reaction.

After Lao Fan turned around and went to the bedroom, he quickly came out, took a small cloth bag, opened it, and it was full of bits and pieces of banknotes, as well as copper plates.

Chen Miao glanced at it, and directly took out a ten-yuan fiat currency issued by the central bank from his hand, picked up a ruler on the table and measured it.

It is 15 centimeters long and less than 8 centimeters wide, and to be accurate to the millimeter, it would be 77 millimeters.

"Sanshui, is there money hidden in the mezzanine?"

"If it's money, why hide it in the mezzanine, seal it, and can't take it from the outside?" Chen Miao smiled, he had already guessed.

"What's that?"

"Although it's not money, it's about money, Lao Fan, you know, this money is made to have a printing master." Chen Miao didn't sell it anymore, and explained directly, "If I'm not mistaken, the four pieces of metal in here are the printing masters for making money." ”

"Huh?" Lao Fan was stunned, and Xiao Qi also showed a surprised expression, for making money, many people can't reach it at all, even Lao Fan is not an ordinary person, if he doesn't run into it, he can't touch this field.

After all, this field is too specialized, not professionals can't reach it at all, there are thousands of people who spend money on the street, how many people can tell how this money is made?

I'm afraid it's less than one in 10,000.

"Although we don't know whether these four pieces are the master of coinage, but we might as well boldly speculate that Itomori is a commissioner sent to China by the Japanese Ministry of Finance, and he is an expert in coinage, and Professor Lan Yuhai Lan is also a top talent in the field of printing and plate making, Zhou Fuhai got him back from the United States, and its purpose should also be to issue Wang's government banknotes, and the most important thing in printing banknotes is engraving intaglio, this technology is not mastered by ordinary people, Professor Lan has ' in the engraving intaglio industry' The title of 'Ghost Hand', I also participated in the master design and seal engraving of fiat currency back then, and the Japanese man-made currency does not necessarily need Professor Lan, but Wang needs it, so I guess that Itomori's box is carrying a gravure master of fiat currency, which is likely to be a copy. ”

"They're going to make counterfeit money!" Lao Fan is an experienced worker, and he immediately reacted, what are the Japanese doing when they master the fiat currency master and help the government print banknotes?

How can it be?

The only explanation is that counterfeit banknotes are secretly printed, and fiat currency is the legal currency of the national control area, once a large number of counterfeit banknotes enter the national control area, the consequences will be troublesome.

Of course, it is not so easy to counterfeit banknotes, the printing and anti-counterfeiting technology of banknotes is a country's top secret, as well as the codes and various marks on banknotes, ordinary people may not be able to distinguish, but professionals can definitely see it.

Small-scale counterfeit banknotes will not play much role, and only large-scale use of counterfeit banknotes will have a huge impact on the financial and economic order.

A large number of counterfeit banknotes appear in the general market, and it is easy to be discovered, unless, the counterfeit banknotes created are comparable to the real ones, to the point of being fake.

"Sanshui, if your inference is true, then the enemy is trying to use counterfeit money to disrupt the economy of our rear, this trick is ruthless enough." Lao Fan gritted his teeth and said.

"Therefore, the chiefs have long been far-sighted, taking precautions, issuing their own currency, distinguishing it from fiat currency, as long as fiat currency is not circulated in our base areas, even if the Japanese create real and fake money, it will not have the slightest effect on us." Chen Miao smiled and said.

"Hmm." When Lao Fan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "What are you going to do about this, do you want to remind Chongqing?" ”

"We have to find an appropriate and appropriate way to remind the Chongqing side that this matter is not only related to the success or failure of our anti-Japanese cause, but also related to the safety of many ordinary people in the rear, and we have to guard against it." Chen Miao said.

"This Professor Lan Yuhai, what is his attitude, is he bent on acting for the tiger, or is he forced to be helpless and can't help himself?" Lao Fan asked.

"At present, I don't know very well, I'm afraid that my initiative to contact this person will arouse Lin Hezhou's suspicions, so I don't have much intersection with Lan Yuhai." Chen Miao shook his head, "What about the gray falcon, what is the progress?" ”

"Gray Falcon reported that Lan Yuhai is a person with a stubborn temper, a more wary of outsiders, and a tight tone, and only learned that he returned to Nagasaki from the United States first, and then returned to Shanghai from Nagasaki, as for the purpose of his meeting in Shanghai, it is not yet known." Old Fan said.

"Forget it, Lan Yuhai has a lot of inconveniences in my 'Lin' memory, I have already asked Lin Shiqun to let him move out, and that Itosen, let them get a garden house to live in Lane 1136 of Yuyuan Road." Chen Miao said.

"In this way, wouldn't it be even more unclear about the movements of these two?" Old Fan said.

"Even if I don't mention this request, I'm afraid that they won't stay on my side for long, and Itomori is a particularly troublesome guy, where he is, I can't beat or scold." Chen Miao said, "Even if they move out, it is estimated that their food and daily life will still be in charge of the inspectorate, and their identities and tasks are all secret, and Lin Shiqun is not at ease to hand them over to others." ”

"That's good, at least it's still in sight."

"Alright, Lao Fan, this film is placed here for you to keep properly." Chen Miao got up and said, "It's not early, Xiao Qi and I have to go back quickly, we have to go to work in a while, and I have a meeting in the morning." ”

"Don't worry, it's almost dawn today, why don't you have breakfast together?" Lao Fan hurriedly grabbed Chen Miao and said.

"Xiao Qi, did you promise him anything?" Chen Miao glanced at Xiao Qi and asked.

Xiao Qi touched his nose, lowered his head and said, "Wanshou Zhai's xiaolongbao and beef vermicelli soup." ”

"Let's go over and eat, so we won't be seen?"

"It's okay, you give me the money, I'll just eat it myself......" Lao Fan said impatiently, his hand was already stretched over.

"If you promise, you give money."

Xiao Qiyi reached out and turned out all the pockets on his body, but he didn't have a penny.

"I don't have any money with me, I owe it first." Chen Miao said angrily.

"What about you liaring ghosts, you will always play when you go to Zhaofeng, will you bring any money with you?" Lao Fan smiled, and made it clear that he was going to knock Chen Miao's bamboo pole.

"Old Fan, can you change your style of asking for money?"

"If you change it, it won't be me." Lao Fan grinned, "Hurry up, if you don't give it, I'll calculate the interest for you, and it's still a profit, I'll calculate it, two cages of xiaolongbao plus a big bowl of beef vermicelli soup, and then a beef offal, a hundred leaves, how to ask for an ocean, according to the current loan interest, nine out of thirteen will return to ......"

"Okay, you're ruthless enough." Chen Miao took out a piece of ocean and put it in the palm of Lao Fan's hand.

"Hehe, if you have this kind of work in the future, you must find me, I promise not to eat more xiaolongbao." Lao Fan put away Dayang and smiled.

"Third brother, Lao Fan's face just now, I really want to punch him in the face."

"Next time, you can try, I promise not to stop you." Chen Miao smiled, with an expression that was not a big deal to see the excitement.

"Is he powerful?" After being stunned for a while, Xiao Qi subconsciously asked.

"I haven't seen him shoot, but he shouldn't be worse than me." Chen Miao nodded and said, "Before coming to Shanghai to work, Lao Fan stayed in Soviet Russia for a while. ”

"Oh?"

"You know what to say when you go back and change it, right?"

"I know, the third brother always slept in Zhaofeng, and when he woke up, the sky was already bright......"

"Looking for death, why did I always sleep in Zhaofeng?"

"And how am I supposed to sleep?"

"You should say so, I was dragged by Tang Keming and Fu Yewen to the Mega Club Casino to gamble with them for a night......"
