Blackstone Code

Counterfeit currency...if you don't consider the fate of the "national team", it's actually not too troublesome.

As long as key materials are monopolized and some necessary resources are set as sensitive resources, the emergence of high imitation currencies can be effectively curbed.

Counterfeit coins that make people think they are not real even before they are in hand actually do not have much circulation environment in the market. Only beautifully made counterfeit coins have a little circulation environment, but not much.

But now the federation is no longer facing the problem of counterfeit currency, but the problem of "real currency".

Someone is printing the federal real currency without limit to hit the market. They use the real currency to exchange for the materials they want, and they can print without restraint!

The flow of a large amount of counterfeit currency into the market will have a huge impact on the economic environment of the Federation and the world, and no one knows how long these counterfeit currency have been circulating.

Judging from the counterfeit currency that only looks 80% new, it has been circulating on the market for at least two to three months, or even longer.

No one knows whether this is the first batch of counterfeit coins or counterfeit coins printed later, but everyone here knows its destructive power!

Connor's expression was serious. This was the first trouble he faced after becoming president.

He didn't know if other presidents were as unlucky as him and encountered these troubles as soon as they came to power, but he knew that if he didn't solve this trouble, he would become a joke among the previous presidents of the federal government!

They might...call themselves the "President of Counterfeit Money" instead of the "President of Boxing" as they are now.

Federalists like to give others nicknames. Since their school days, they have used "nicknames" to engage in social "bullying" and give others labels they may not like.

Until people enter society, no matter their social class, they cannot escape this.

It's just that sometimes people's nicknames are positive, like Lynch's "Mr. Miracle", and "President of Counterfeit Money" is definitely not a positive nickname!

The CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of America offered some advice, "We first need to roughly figure out how many counterfeit bills are in circulation, and then find out how these counterfeit bills are flowing in."

"I think it is unlikely that it was printed and produced within the Commonwealth because we have very strict management of the materials used to make these counterfeit banknotes, whether they are imported or exported."

"It is likely to enter the federal environment through smuggling..."

Everyone nodded, they actually guessed the same thing.

There are many areas entering the federal territory from Marillo that cannot be well supervised, and it is very likely that they were smuggled in from there.

Or smuggled in directly from the port.

The daily throughput of federal ports is extremely large, and it is impossible for customs to inspect every commodity in every container.

Basically they are spot checks.

This may give them some way to smuggle the cash in, such as disguising the cash.

Throw sealed packages of cash into barrels of crude oil, and then inject a small amount of crude oil to make it appear that each barrel is full.

There are many methods of this kind, especially the inspection of some raw material containers is very difficult, and most of them just take a look.

Moreover... the federal customs is neither pure nor honest. This does not rule out the possibility of someone colluding with the customs to smuggle these currencies in.

Of course they wouldn't say it was smuggling currency, it might be smuggling some raw materials or something else.

Currently, a shipping container can hold about 1.2 billion federal soles (one hundred dollar denomination). It doesn’t even take fifty containers to get the war reparations back!

So this matter must be curbed!

What is to be curbed is not only the impact of counterfeit currency on the entire federal and world economy, but also the rapid recovery of Pengeo's economic strength!

Yes, although no one has any evidence to prove that these counterfeit coins came from Pengeo, everyone thinks so.

Only the Pengjiao people have the technology and ability to manufacture counterfeit coins on a large scale!

After all, for them, printing the Federal Sole is just changing a printing plate, which is not substantially different from printing their Ao Yuan!

Soon everyone will be ordered to leave, and the bank will start operating first. As the largest cash transfer institution, a large amount of currency will enter the bank every day. Small-scale counterfeit currency can be temporarily ignored, but large-scale counterfeit currency will definitely attract attention.

Secondly, it is to conduct an inventory of the customs and fill in the loopholes as much as possible.

But these...actually don't change the current situation much.

Lynch was left alone, and Connor always thought of him when he was in trouble.

"Speaking of which, I've also encountered some troubles recently." Lynch sat across from Connor's desk.

His relationship with Connor now no longer requires showing politeness to each other, which would instead appear to be distant.

"What's the trouble?" Connor asked, and then said, "Do you need my help?"

"Sometimes I have to admit that it makes sense for people to work so hard for this position!" He patted the armrest of the chair with some emotion.

“With just one signature, almost all problems can be solved!”

In fact, he has not officially entered the work until now. Since the election was delayed until March, the real results were not announced. The transition between his team and the previous president, Mr. Trueman's team, took more than half a month. time, it’s the end of April.

All he needs to do during this period is sign various words.

Appoint cabinet members, appoint important department heads, and selectively retain or cancel some policies of President Trueman during his tenure.

This is also one of the things that has attracted more attention since the president took office.

The federal people have a questioning spirit, and their successors do not respect the previous president as much as people think. Instead, they will modify the phased policies of their predecessors.

This may also be one of the reasons why the Federation can continue to progress. There are no "immovable laws" here. As long as they are not in line with the times and do not meet the development prospects, they can be cancelled.

This also allowed Connor to enjoy the joy of real power. With a signature, the country may change.

Lynch crossed his legs and shrugged, "Some fake chips also appeared in Slem, but I'm lucky that I have found out who is sabotaging our development behind the scenes."

Connor had some vague guesses, but he hoped to get the real truth, "Who is it?"

"A governor of the Pengeo Empire, they also established a special factory to imitate fake chips."

Connor couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "They are really stupid. How much can those chips be exchanged for?"

In his opinion, it is not cost-effective to make fake chips because it cannot be exchanged for many fake chips.

But he soon realized how shallow his knowledge of the world was. "We have discovered about 40 million fake chips, and there are still some that we may not have discovered yet."

He couldn't laugh anymore.

He doesn't even have that many assets. He is a politician, and although he has also worked as a broker, he doesn't have that much money.

His total personal assets total only about seven to eight million. Some things belong to the family and not to him.

At the same time, Connor also realized whether Lynch was planning to do something.

His relationship with Lynch did not require him to hide his thoughts, and he also believed that Lynch would not hide his thoughts, "Are you going back for revenge?"

Lynch nodded, "I suspect that the counterfeit money also comes from the Pengeo Empire. They all starved to death last year. In order to solve domestic problems, they may do these despicable things!"

When the external pressure is too great and the contradiction cannot be transferred outward, the contradiction will only continue to be pressurized internally and then explode!

Two of Pengeo's subordinate countries have already announced their separation from Pengeo, and the remaining ones are also facing various resistance movements in their countries.

The current situation is particularly troublesome for the entire Pengeo military group. Once domestic conflicts break out, the rule of the nobles will be unstable.

Moreover, the Federation also supported some resistance organizations in Pengeo, allowing them to fight against the imperial government.

The new emperor who came to power was a smart man. He knew that the easiest way to solve domestic contradictions and conflicts was to spend money.

But where does this money come from?

Print your own currency?

That thing has become devalued and becomes worthless. The more copies are printed, the less valuable it becomes!

Then the only way is to print the currencies of other countries, such as printing the federal sol.

Connor touched his chin. He felt that if Lynch really wanted to take revenge, this would be a good choice.

Unofficial revenge, everything is within control.

"What are you going to do?", he asked.

Lynch did not hide his thoughts and said truthfully, "I first find out where their factory is and where the counterfeiter is."

"What big figures are involved in the counterfeiting activities, and then I will arrange for people to assassinate them."

"In the end, I will destroy their factory..."

After listening, Connor summed it up, "It sounds like a movie plot, but... it's very good."

He paused for a moment and said, "Maybe we should send some people over there to investigate."

He quickly changed the topic back to this matter, "Do you think there is anything you need to add about the methods they mentioned?"

Lynch mentioned some of his thoughts, "If too many counterfeit coins are smuggled at once, it will be easy to be discovered, so I believe they are smuggling in small quantities in batches to avoid being discovered by us."

"But there are a lot of brand-new banknotes, especially large-denomination banknotes that are difficult to use. I think they should smuggle only small-denomination banknotes."

"Concealed, easy to use, won't be too much trouble."

"But sometimes some people are more sensitive to these aspects than us, and it's easier to get information that we can't find out..."
