Lin Mo decided to start from the root and check out who was behind the Japanese like Lan Wei'ailu, otherwise everything they saw would be something floating on the surface, and no matter how much they guess, they would be rootless water.

Although he had also investigated it before, it was basically based on the rumors circulating on the market. But now Lin Mo felt that things would not be that simple. These were mostly smoke bombs or illusions created by others.

As expected, shortly after in-depth investigation, Lin Mo found a trap. Shortly after he got on track, the Japanese mortgage lending bank on Lan Wei'ai Road had introduced its colonial and occupied areas, namely the Korean banknotes and Manchuria Yuan.

Korean banknotes, commonly known as old man's note, were banknotes circulated in the Korean Peninsula, Kanto Prefecture and the three northeastern provinces during the Japanese rule. In fact, there are more than these areas. North Korean Bank has set up many branches in China, and it was established earlier, so there are also a small amount of circulating in these places.

The issuer is the Korean Bank, whose headquarters is located in Pyongyang. The Korean Bank essentially became the central bank that Japan colonized the Korean Peninsula and was also the official Japanese bank that borrowed the colonial name.

The Manchukuo Yuan was the 18th century after the Japanese occupied the Northeast and supported the puppet Manchukuo. They then issued the issue after occupying North Korea to establish a Korean bank.

The current Manchukuo Yuan adopts the same silver standard as Chinese currency, so it is hard to understand the trick if you use this thing, but the Chinese people are very resistant to it, so no one has accepted it.

And it was also exposed later, and the Korean banknotes and the Japanese yen were also affected. The people behind them also withdrew the Korean banknotes, which did not cause much wave. However, Lin Mo guessed that there should be a lot of public relations, even the British and French guys secretly doing things behind their backs, and it was probably inspired by this.

The two currencies have been recommended, which shows that this place must be inseparable from North Korea and the Japanese forces in Northeast China. The main thing that dominates the financial lifeline of these two places is the colonial bank of the North Korean Bank, so this matter must be related to North Korean Bank.

However, in the widely circulated news on the market, no one involved North Korean banks, and they all talked about Yokohama Masaki Bank, which supported these stores and other things behind it. Now it seems that they are really smoke bombs thrown out by humans and the illusion of confusing others.

Yokohama Masaki Bank is a professional foreign exchange bank in Japan. Since its establishment in Shanghai in May 1893, Yokohama Masaki Bank has consciously played the role of "pioneer" in aggression against China. It is not unreasonable to say that it operates behind the scenes.

However, after Japan occupied the Northeast for 18 September, part of the business that Yokohama Masaki Bank had accumulated after years of operation in the Northeast was transferred to the North Korean Bank. Although the two sides may not be hostile, the things they had finally managed were transferred to the other party, so they would definitely not be very voluntary, at least both parties were not very capable of peeing.

The forces behind colonial banks like the Korean Bank must be the military pro-war faction who fanatically advocates foreign aggression, or to be more accurate, the army pro-war faction, and now they can be referred to as the Kwantung Army faction.

Therefore, Yokohama Masaki Bank should be more inclined to the naval faction, at least it is not easy to pee at the army's main war faction, so they are unlikely to promote these currencies for the other party in the Japanese naval sphere of influence far away in Shanghai. Therefore, it is excluded that Yokohama Masaki Bank is the mastermind behind this matter, but it is a bank that franchises foreign exchange business in Japan. This matter cannot be completely unrelated to it, otherwise at least it should also clarify the rumors, and it is likely that there are any interest transactions or fears behind it.

In addition, the Japanese Navy's incorporation may also rule out that the Japanese Navy may have some forces and interests in Korea and the Northeast, but there are definitely not many, which is far inferior to the Japanese Army. Its colonial interests are mainly in Taiwan. If it is mixed, with the relationship between the Japanese Army and the Navy, it will definitely add Taiwan banknotes together.

This creates a question. Who hit a wall on Lan Wei'ai Road before? It is unlikely that the Japanese Navy's people are the Japanese Navy. Behind Lan Wei'ai's Japanese people, there must be Japanese army forces involved. With the relationship between the two sides, Shanghai is also considered its sphere of influence, so it is impossible to bow to it.

Apart from the Japanese Navy, it is likely that the Japanese Army is a group of forces, such as the group of Japanese spies who are facing them now. But since they are all in the same group as the Japanese Army, and even have relationships with the Kanto Army in the north, why did the conflict break out and the dissolute separation? Could it be that the people behind them are incompatible?

The possibility is not high, and the people who come back bow their heads and give in. Even if the internal relationship is not in line with each other, you can trip up, wear small shoes, put eye drops, pull the hind legs, etc. If you go privately, you are fine, but you should not leave openly and unhappy. Isn’t this a joke for outsiders? This is very taboo.

After eliminating these possibilities, the rest is that there are ghosts here. They are unwilling to let others know about it, and even people from the same group will still drive them away. After this, they have strengthened the inspection of the surrounding areas and can indirectly prove it.

But Lin Mo doesn't want to worry about it for the time being. As long as he is sure that his investigation is likely to be fine, there will be no network waiting for them to dig in. He can just go in and investigate with confidence.

But even if the chances of other situations are not high, Lin Mo did not relax at all. He continued to test, observe, and be alert, and then slowly touched the Lan Wei'ai street where the Japanese opened a mortgage loan bank and the Banking Industry Office.

The news provided by Uncle Ping was indeed not broken. The other party did set up a whole lane, which was also a trading place at one end, in the form of a tea club, occupying many houses on both sides of the lane, and on the other side there were also mortgage lending houses. However, they were not gathered in the lane, but on the street shops on the Huajie side of Lan Wei'ai Road, but were distributed on both sides of the entrance of the lane.

The one under the plate cannot be considered a single alley, but the three lanes in the shape of "官" in the shape of "官" relative to Lan Wei'ai Road. The two lanes on Lan Wei'ai Road are where the exchange and the money house are located, and the horizontal line of the I-shaped lanes are where the bank is built on both sides of the plate.

At both ends of the exchange and the bank, from the entrance to the door, passing through the alley where the bank deposit is located, the buildings on both sides are also threatened and tempted by them to control them, and the staff, guards and Japanese construction workers of the bank deposit are allowed to live and rest. Except for customers, no one is allowed to enter, and customers cannot move in at will. They can only take them to designated places for silver entry and exit procedures.

Because of the emergence of this place, the people on this section of the street were so crowded, with people coming and going, and there were so many restaurants and teahouses on both sides of the street that they could not be squeezed. No matter how hot the weather was, it was impossible to extinguish the fanaticism of seeking profit! The weather was nothing in front of money!

Lin Mo did not do anything else first, but bought a silver pledge. The full name should be called a silver mortgage loan contract. It is not a piece of paper, but more than twenty pieces, slightly larger than A4 paper, and specially cut and bound contracts, with various terms and conditions written in small fonts.

There is actually nothing to be surprised about with so many terms. For example, stocks, bonds, futures and other financial or financial derivatives, the transactions are actually a contract, but those formal financial products, corresponding rules, terms, etc. are all fixed by the rules formulated by law or exchanges, and you are only given a copy.

And here is not a formal place, not bound by law or protected by law, and the rules formulated are not recognized by law, so it is useless for you to issue only one voucher, and you can only bind the corresponding rules of each transaction in the form of contract terms.

This is a kind of loophole! What I issued is just a mortgage loan contract. This is a very normal and reasonable ordinary business behavior, and there is no big deal to catch. As for people to trade, it is someone else's business and has nothing to do with me. The exchange is also called by others, that is, the land where tea is drinking! These guys have obviously deliberately avoided all kinds of problems.

If you buy the currency, it is naturally the Japanese yen. Before, the two of you looked for money dealers and foreign exchange dealers. People like the ones are definitely not just a single mouth, but they are in the mood to ask you to inquire about this and that. However, every time you exchange it, it is a small amount, and some banknotes issued by banks in Shanghai, or US dollars, which are not very noticeable.

Lin Mo bought a small bill, a mortgaged item of 1,000 ounces. The transactions here are all measured in ounces. One is to benchmark foreign countries to facilitate the conversion of these silver prices, and the other is to measure them. Although the volume is large, the price is very low. The issue of the bill price will be repeated later.

One thousand ounces is the mainstream amount of bets in transactions, and there are still hundreds of bets in the downward trend, but the transaction volume is not large. If you convert one thousand ounces, it is about 760 taels or 900 taels.

Why are there two? This is the difference between size and size. Qing liang is about 600 grams. One jin is converted into 16 taels, which is about 100 grams. One jin is about 37 grams. One thousand ounces is more than 760 taels, which is a big tael. However, the Nanjing government sets one jin to 500 grams, which is 31.25 grams, and one jin is more than 900 taels, which is a small tael.

Don’t think that Nanjing’s good intentions are to compare domestic measurement with foreign countries. At least they have never seen each other. However, they have played a lot of tricks of getting into big and small in gold and silver transactions, tax collection, etc., making domestic measurements messy.

Not much to talk about it, buy this, Lin Mo is naturally preparing to study the terms and rules, and see what traps and black pits the other party has buried. These long and dense small characters are written by Lin Mo. Lin Mo believes that few speculators have been patient and carefully read them carefully, and they have not figured out the other party's purpose, so it is difficult to find out the problem after reading them.

However, the more the Japanese make these things look decent and upright, the more they show that there is a pitfall in it. There is no need to even think about this. With the Japanese's ambitions towards China and their attitude towards the Chinese, this is almost inevitable.

Lin Mo left this area first. There were too many people, and the sun was hanging in the sky like a fireball. Most speculators, and perhaps various brokers, were almost crowded with various shops on both sides of the road. I really couldn't find a suitable place for him to concentrate on checking.

After coming out and walking into the alley on one side of the Huajie River, walking through to the other street, Lin Mo found a small restaurant, asked for a small single room with windows on the second floor, ordered dishes and let the other party prepare them and then closed the single room door. Lin Mo carefully checked each clause, while Wang Yousheng looked quietly behind the window and looked into the distance.
