I asked the coachman, there is indeed a Heshui gold store in Nanjing, but Fang Buwei did not dare to go.

Two thousand taels of gold is not a small amount, and Fang Buwei is afraid that he will leave roots and show traces, and second, he does not dare to guarantee whether this gold bank is related to Japanese spies.

Although the temperament is extraordinary, the dress is also very magnificent. But the manager of the bank didn't look like he was carrying the box, and then looked at the box, it was obviously a lunch box, and he just thought it was doing some small business, and no one even paid attention to him.

When Fang Buwei asked out loud, a young clerk came to greet him.

How can such a large bank not exchange foreign currency, but only silver dollars?

Fang Buwei didn't believe it at all, he estimated that it was because he was a countryman.

More than 2,000 taels of gold can be exchanged for more than 100,000 silver dollars, what is the concept of more than 100,000 silver dollars?

The clerk asked Fang Buwei how much gold he had, and Fang Buwei said that he had dozens of taels. The clerk pouted on the spot.

The bank clerk didn't even think that the box in Fang Buwei's hand contained gold bars.

He suggested that if you don't want to exchange it for silver dollars, you can keep the gold here.

How could Fang Buwei make such a low-level mistake?

In such troubled times, it is better to put money in your own hands and feel more at ease.

Money can make ghosts grind, Fang Buwei found that this sentence is more suitable in the Republic of China, but seeing that there is no one left and right, he stuffed a few silver dollars into the hands of the clerk and asked where he could exchange dollars.

The clerk told him several places, including private banks and offices of foreign banks.

Fang didn't think twice, but went to the office of Standard Chartered Bank.

Two thousand taels of gold, tens of millions of the top in the future generations, the goal is too big. Moreover, the gold bars are all marked and numbered, so you don't dare to take risks.

Private banks opened by Chinese people are difficult to ensure that they will not be watched.

At this time, most of the well-known banks in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and Japan basically had branches in Shanghai, and very few in Nanjing. But there are offices. The biggest role is to exchange and redeem.

Redemption in other places, and foreign currency is also used to exchange domestic gold and silver.

This is exactly what the Chinese side is not afraid of.

Even if it is Standard Chartered Bank, Fang Buwei also plans to explore the way first.

He spent ten yuan to buy a leather bag at a foreign bank, found a secluded place, took out twenty gold bars from the box, and put them in.

He was received by a Chinese comprador. When the intention was explained, the comprador surnamed Tao was very enthusiastic.

Fang Buwei asked the price, which was about the same as he expected, and the comprador surnamed Tao said that it was necessary to look at the fineness of the gold to set the price.

Fang Buwei took out a gold bar that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it over.

"Good condition!" The comprador surnamed Tao didn't say to the other party, "How many do you have?" ”

"How much do you have at one time?" Fang Buwei asked rhetorically.

The Tao comprador showed a hint of smugness on his face: "Under 100,000 US dollars, pay immediately!" ”

Fang Buwei was overjoyed to hear it, and stretched out two fingers: "Two hundred taels!" ”

"Yes!" Tao comprador may have seen a lot of large numbers, and when he heard Fang Buwei say that it was two hundred taels, his face was as plain as water.

"Did you bring anything?"

Fang Bu opened the purse and took out all twenty gold bars.

Tao comprador didn't ask about the origin of the gold bars at all, nor did he ask Fang Buwei's identity, and exchanged them into US dollars on the spot.

One two and thirty-two dollars, Fang Buwei exchanged six thousand four hundred dollars.

Before leaving, Fang Buwei claimed that he still had a sum at home, he went to get it now, and came back to exchange it later.

Tao comprador said that he could come over at any time.

Carrying a leather bag and leaving the office, Fang Buwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just don't ask where you come from.

Fang Buwei went to the exchange offices of several other foreign banks, but he deliberately avoided Deutsche Bank.

He also thought about exchanging the certificate of deposit.

The price is not much different. Fang Buwei did not calculate it, if it was only exchanged in one place, the price could be higher.

But the amount was too large, and he really didn't dare to concentrate on one exchange.

After the last thirty gold bars were handed over to the Tao compradors, Fang Buwei already had sixty-five thousand dollars in his purse.

Five hundred taels of gold, which can be regarded as a big customer, Tao comprador finally had a trace of enthusiasm on his face.

"If there is still gold in the hand of the gentleman, I can raise the price here more!"

Naturally, the gold bars are gone, and Fang will not do it or say it.

"It was originally used to save lives, but if it wasn't for an emergency, it would be impossible to take it out and sell it!" Fang Buwei pretended to have a trace of sadness on his face, "If something is wrong, naturally you will trouble Brother Tao!" ”

Fang Buwei panicked and said that there was an accident in his family, so he sold the gold for emergency use.

After a business is done, the two have begun to call each other brothers.

"By the way, I still have a deposit receipt here, I don't know if Brother Tao can redeem it here! If I could, I would have saved myself another trip. After pondering for a while, Fang Buwei took out the deposit certificate of Deutsche Bank.

Tao comprador took it, glanced at it and said: "If it is our own deposit certificate, it can naturally be redeemed, but not other banks!" ”

As he spoke, he returned the deposit receipt to Fang Buwei: "It's not far, just cross a street!" ”

Fang Buwei put away the deposit receipt, and said casually: "This money was deposited by my father, but he happened to be out, and I don't know if I can redeem it?" ”

"I'm about to remind you that if you don't want to redeem it, you must put away the certificate of deposit. Whoever gets it can cash it out......," said Tao Comprador Tao.

That's the best! Fang Buwei thought secretly.

After leaving the office of Standard Chartered Bank, Fang Buwei went directly to the office of Deutsche Bank.

When Fang Buwei took out the deposit receipt, the Chinese clerk directly called the German steward.

Fang Buwei looked at it quietly, it should be that the amount is too large, and the authority of the Chinese staff is not enough.

Sure enough, a German steward came, and he first called the Shanghai branch to confirm it, and then took a magnifying glass to identify the seal on the deposit receipt.

After looking at it for several minutes, the German steward nodded and asked the Chinese staff to exchange it directly.

After redeeming the certificate of deposit, it is not easy. If he wants, he can use the money to buy a building in the most prosperous area of Nanjing, and he can buy five or six princely mansions of the former Qing Dynasty in Beiping and Shanghai......

Forget it, don't want to.

Fang Buwei suppressed his excitement, put a leather bag on his chest, and called a rickshaw. Then Fang Buwei told the coachman again to go to the water and gold shop.

When the wealth is made, the right thing must be done.

The gold bars of the Japanese are all from this gold shop. And the amount is still so large, Fang Buwei has some doubts about whether this bank has anything to do with the Japanese, so he keeps an eye on it.

When he left the Deutsche Bank office just now, Fang Buwei asked them if they could buy gold bars here, and the staff told him that they could. One or two forty US dollars, and the limit, a single person is limited to one hundred taels per day.

How did the two thousand taels of gold that the Japanese hid in the secret room come from? And it's from the same gold bank?
