Ning Zhiheng nodded. Gu Feng had already found all the anti-counterfeiting secrets and methods of Zhongshu Coin and explained them clearly. In this way, there was no difficulty in anti-counterfeiting.

Master Yang continued: "However, the only difference is that our machinery is advanced than them and has a better clarity."

"What?" Ning Zhiheng frowned, his face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Huo Yueze beside him, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

The printing press that Intelligence Department purchased from abroad at a high price is currently the most advanced style in the world. The printing quality is absolutely no problem, but it has become a defect.

Huo Yueze quickly explained: "We have adjusted."

Master Yang saw that Ning Zhiheng looked bad, and he also made a sudden sense of his heart. He quickly explained: "It's all my fault that I didn't explain clearly. This problem has been solved. We have adjusted the machine and parameters. I can guarantee that the finished products printed now are absolutely unbiased with the banknotes printed by Zhengjin Bank. If I don't know in advance, it will be difficult for me to identify them."

Huo Yueze also continued on the side: "We have checked it. It can be said that what we did is more real than the real. It should be said that what we did is real money. The whole set of technology is exactly the same. Even the encoding is printed in the number order provided. I can guarantee that the Japanese will not find any problem with such a degree of forgery."

Huo Yueze has absolute confidence in this, mainly because the preparations for counterfeiting China Savings Coin were very complete and all the details that could be considered were taken into account. It can be said that printing China Savings Coin with such technology is really useless.

Ning Zhiheng saw that everyone was full of confidence and was quite satisfied. With the company of everyone, he inspected the entire money printing factory, and then ended the inspection and left the underground money printing factory.

In the car, Ning Zhiheng said to Huo Yueze: "Three days later, the Nanjing Central Reserve Bank will officially announce the establishment of the China Reserve Coin will be officially issued. At present, our most important task is to print the China Reserve Coin, and the progress of printing money must be accelerated. As the saying goes, once the machine sounds, there will be tens of taels of gold! This will be our biggest source of finance in the future. You must personally take care of this work!"

The previous fiscal revenue of the Intelligence Department was of course to operate smuggling businesses. Although the profits in this were very huge, the expenses were also large. Among them, it was used to open up various joints, buy high-level executives of China and Japan, and pay salaries of personnel involved in business activities, etc. A series of corresponding investments and losses also accounted for a large part, and they also bear corresponding risks.

But the deposit coins in printing are different. There is almost no loss or investment in the middle. What is invested is just the cost of some raw materials. When you walk in the printing workshop, it will become real money and circulating banknotes in a blink of an eye. With the help of Fujiwara Company's large commercial network, it can be easily circulated. It can be said that it can be regarded as a real profit!

Moreover, as the scale expands, the proportion of the revenue from the deposit coins in printing will increase and increase in the proportion of the intelligence department's fiscal revenue, even several times that of the smuggling business, which has forced Ning Zhiheng to put this work first.

Huo Yueze also knew this and nodded immediately and said, "Please rest assured, I have mobilized all the intelligence and operational forces to devote all my efforts to this work, and I will ensure safety."

On January 6, 1941, Nanjing Central Reserve Bank was established as scheduled, and the Reserve Bank Shanghai Branch was officially opened in Shanghai.

As the president of the Central Reserve Bank, Zhou Fushan came to Shanghai again and began lobbying all parties. He ordered the commercial banks, department stores, and major trading companies in the city of Shanghai to forcefully accept China Reserve Coins. Those who dare to disobey were arrested immediately and severely punished.

This iron-fisted method has achieved good results. China Reserve Co., Ltd. has gradually entered the Shanghai market, but as expected, the Shanghai financial community has a negative attitude towards the issuance of China Reserve Co., Ltd. and firmly resisted it.

On the second day after the establishment of Nanjing Central Reserve Bank, major newspapers in the Shanghai Concession issued statements calling on all sectors of industry and commerce to support fiat currency, and all walks of life refused to accept China Reserve currency.

The two major guilds in Shanghai's banks and money industry unanimously decided to resolutely refuse to deal with the Shanghai Branch of Nanjing Central Reserve Bank. For a time, whether the Shanghai financial industry can accept the China Reserve Coupons will become a weather vane for whether it can promote it smoothly to the greatest extent.

Zhou Fushan tried his best, but in the end there was no substantial progress. So he pointed his finger at the four major banks of the Chongqing government and proposed to these four major banks to exchange China Storage Coupons and establish account opening transactions.

This is of course his wishful thinking. The four major banks of the Chongqing government clearly rejected this request. Zhou Fushan was very dissatisfied and immediately forced the four major banks to withdraw from the public concession and withdraw from the Shanghai financial sector through the Japanese military.

Under pressure, for the sake of safety, the three major banks of China, transportation and farmers moved to the French Concession. Only the Central Bank, as the largest bank of the National Party Government, decided not to show weakness to the Nanjing government and to save face, and finally decided to stick to the public concession and refused to move. The two sides were in a stalemate.

Zhou Fushan's work of saving coins in Shanghai was hindered. After nearly a month of back and forth, he finally gave up. This task was naturally handed over to Li Zhiqun.

In the office of the Chongqing Military Administration Headquarters, several senior officials are negotiating urgently on the matter.

The director first said: "Everyone knows the situation. The Nanjing government has forced our four major banks to withdraw from the Shanghai financial industry. This is simply unbearable. The commission ordered the Military Affairs Bureau to block the situation with all its might, regardless of the cost or any means, and must stop the implementation of China's depositary currency!"

Huang Xianzheng also spoke: "What the bureau said is that Shanghai is the financial center of the country. The four major banks adhere to Shanghai is of great significance. Once they withdraw from Shanghai, it will be very unfavorable to our financial system. Therefore, we must not retreat slightly. We must hit the head-on and teach the Nanjing government a lesson!"

The military bureau's power in Shanghai is naturally affiliated with the intelligence department and the Shanghai station under the two bureaus. However, everyone knows that although the intelligence department has strong power, they are all meticulous and are mainly responsible for intelligence. As for such field operations, they must be handed over to the Shanghai station to complete.

So Bian Ze responded: "Shanghai Station has been replenished recently and the supplies are abundant. Chen Hongchi has been preparing to take more active actions to deter the enemy and puppet forces. This time it is an opportunity. He is a good player and is good at doing these things!"

"Then click his general!" The director nodded coldly, "I transferred him to Shanghai to value his ability to act. However, he has been in Shanghai for more than a year and has not taken any major actions. Instead, he was forced to hide in the concession. If it weren't for the help of the intelligence department, he wouldn't know what mistakes would have happened. You tell him clearly that this action is extraordinary. If I don't handle things well, I will hold you accountable!"

"Yes, I will definitely warn him!" Bianze nodded quickly to take the order.

The bureau chief looked at Gu Zhengqi again and asked, "Don't you have an insider at the Silian Branch? What's new happening there."

The Silian Branch is a special institution based in Shanghai where the Chongqing government is located in Shanghai and coordinates the management of the four major state-owned banks. Gu Zhengqi has placed nails here and has a very detailed understanding of the changes in Shanghai's financial circle.

Hearing the inquiry from the bureau chief, Gu Zhengqi quickly replied: "The situation there is very bad. At present, the other three banks are not good, but the central bank is a little inappropriate. It is said that the agents of the Nanjing government are blatantly blocking the door. The bank's business has been affected, and many customers have been scared away. These people are fearless and may attack the bank staff stationed at any time, which makes people panic. The bureau chief, we must take action, otherwise if we continue like this, the central bank will not be able to hold on."

"Hmph!" The director's face was gloomy and slapped the table. "The intelligence department also sent a message. Zhou Fushan, who was responsible for the promotion of affairs, ran away. Now all the work is handed over to Li Zhiqun. This guy is a hard-core traitor. He is determined to follow the Japanese. He is cruel and useless to do things. I guess he will take action soon. We cannot wait passively. We must take the lead and take action first."

Speaking of this, Huo Ran stood up and solemnly ordered: "Order Chen Hongchi to do it as soon as possible!"

The order was quickly transmitted to the Shanghai station. Chen Hongchi received a telegram and did not dare to neglect it. He immediately gathered his main cadres to assign action tasks.

Two days later, around 9 a.m., at the door of an apartment in downtown Shanghai, a middle-aged man in a straight suit walked out of the house with a briefcase in his hand. He was Ji Xiangqing, a specialist at the Shanghai Branch of Nanjing Central Reserve Bank.

A car was parked at the door. When the driver saw Ji Xiangqing coming out, he quickly pushed open the door and got out of the car, greeted him, and said respectfully: "Mr. Ji!"

Ji Xiangqing just nodded, and the driver opened the rear door. Ji Xiangqing bent over and got on the car. The driver got on the car immediately, and the car started and drove towards the Reserve Bank.

As soon as the vehicle drove out of the alley, a car was speeding from the other direction, and a sudden brake was blocking the way.

The driver was startled and quickly braked, and the vehicle stopped.

Before Ji Xiangqing could speak out, two figures emerged from both sides of the vehicle. These were the members of the movement who had long been ambushing here and disguised as pedestrians.

Their movements were quick, and they raised their guns and shot as soon as they approached. Borrowning in their hands kept firing, and the glass of the car was shattered. Ji Xiangqing and the driver did not react at all. They were shot several times and collapsed onto the seat.
Chapter completed!
