Lu Yi and the others could see the helplessness and anxiety of their mother-in-law. In order to make her feel a little relieved, Mr. Dalin only took out a few wads of brand-new banknotes, about twenty or thirty thousand, and asked the old woman to Don't be nervous, the money will be returned after random inspection.

The errand work was left to Lu Yi and Yinchuan, and Dalin directly asked them to go back to the alliance building to meet with bank staff for follow-up matters.

Then, he and Muzi returned to the living room and chatted with the old gentleman.

"Uncle, why do you keep so much cash at home? Aren't you afraid of being robbed?"

Hearing this, the old man smiled.

"It's not because I'm too busy to save money."

As he said this, he saw that the tea in Dalin's cup was a little empty, so he asked his wife to help the guest add some more.

"Actually, we usually don't save so much cash. We usually save money once a week. But the day before yesterday, a lady came and was very generous. She bought out our senbei and paid the entire amount in one go. amount of cash.

My husband and I didn't have time to save money because there were so many customers waiting to come to support us every day! We can’t let people be disappointed in us!

So these two days I stepped up to bake new senbei and hid the money for the time being. "

Speaking of this, a complicated look appeared on the old gentleman's face.

"Mr. Commander, I actually have a hunch that this money is probably the counterfeit money you are looking for. Because if you think about it, no normal person would go shopping with such a large amount of cash and buy so many senbei at once. Woolen cloth?"

After hearing this, Mr. Dalin did not rush to answer the old man's speculation, but asked other questions.

"Uncle, you don't need to be too pessimistic. There is no definite conclusion yet on whether the money is real or fake. I am curious, what is the total value of your order? Is it convenient to disclose it?"

"It's convenient. It doesn't matter if you go into the house and take inventory." The old man joked with a smile, "The couple of us can bake about 50 senbei every day, and sell them for 200 each. The total amount in three months is 90 orders. I I gave her a discount and only charged 85."

"Selling it so cheap??" Dalin was a little surprised for a moment. He thought the value of a single senbei should be higher.

The old man nodded.

"The production cost of Fuyan Senbei is very high, and the ingredients are very abundant. We used to sell 200 pieces in Fuyan Town, and the basic profit was about 50%.

When we came to Manjin City, raw materials became difficult to buy, and the cost increased due to resource shortages and inconvenient transportation. But our husband and wife insisted on not increasing the price and still sold each one for 200, even though the profit now is only 20%. "

"In other words, your order of 90 yuan cost more than 70 yuan. You even charged the other party 5 yuan less, and the actual profit was only a little over 10 yuan?" Muzi's eyes widened at the side.

The old man smiled and nodded.

"Well, small profits but quick turnover! We have been making senbei all our lives, and the main thing is a benefit!"

Muzi was dumbfounded for a moment, and stopped recording the case in his hands.

She couldn't even imagine how serious the losses to the elderly couple would be if all the money was counterfeit!

According to laws and regulations, all counterfeit coins must be collected and destroyed by the alliance! But there is no legal provision that this type of property damage will be compensated by the alliance to individuals!

Under the mechanism of each taking risks, the old man and his wife's many years of savings will be wiped out! What a sin has been done!

Muzi looked at Captain Lin with a complicated expression, but the latter was still very calm.

Dalin did not continue the topic, but looked at the old man with a smile and joked: "Senior, let me tell you a hellish joke. If your senbei were really deceived by a woman, can you still remember what she looks like?"

Hearing this, the old man laughed heartily.

"I must remember that! I know her even after she turned into ashes! Hahaha..."

After hearing the old man's reply, Captain Lin blinked and wondered what he was thinking.

He also laughed with the old man for a while, and then looked at the old woman next to him.

“Oh, it’s almost time for us to leave, there are still many shops to visit.

How about this? The excellent police officer next to me is named Muzi. She will act as a bodyguard for my mother-in-law later. You should deposit your family money in the bank first! Avoid being missed by thieves! "

After hearing this, the old woman hesitated for a moment and wondered, did the police want to directly determine the authenticity through the banknote detector?

But the old man was very magnanimous and agreed on the spot. In his mind, he would have to face whether the money was real or fake sooner or later. He might as well come to a conclusion as soon as possible while the police officers were present!

So, under Muzi's incredible gaze, Dalin patted her shoulder and disappeared into the deep alley alone.

……

Lu Yi and Yinchuan stood in the hall and waited for more than half an hour before finally getting the comparison results.

"boom--!!"

Yinchuan punched the wall angrily, his eyebrows raised.

"grass!"

"grass--!!!"

He vented his emotions with roars and curses, and Lu Yi was so angry that he clenched his teeth.

Yinchuan's breathing became increasingly rapid, and the comparison report in his hand was wrinkled.

He looked at Lu Yi fiercely: "Why? Brother Yi, why?!"

"Why do they have to be deceived like this when they have been responsible and down-to-earth all their lives?! Why is it that the person who broke the law is the person who made the counterfeit money, but in the end it is the grandparents who have to bear the losses!!!

Does this society only bully honest people? Tell me, what does the content on this list of the banking system mean? ! "

Yinchuan clutched the report in his hand, which had a line of text on it: After professional comparison and testing, the 3 yuan cash sample brought back by the police this time was all counterfeit currency. Our unit is now confiscating and destroying them in accordance with the law, and requires the police to investigate and bring back the remaining counterfeit currency samples as soon as possible.

Yinchuan's eyes were bloodshot, and veins appeared near his temples.

"I asked the bank staff why there was only information on investigation and punishment, but no mention of how to compensate for the couple's personal losses! Brother Yi, guess what they said? They said this is what the law stipulates! Hand in the counterfeit currency book It is the basic obligation of citizens!

What the fuck is this answer? !

Of course I know that counterfeit money must be confiscated and destroyed, but is that the problem? ! I'm asking what to do with the couple's huge losses! "

Seeing Yinchuan's angry look at this moment, Lu Yi was helpless.

In fact, when he remembered this Senbei shop in the game city, he was originally very excited. Such a large amount of senbei was inexplicably shorted, which is very consistent with the investigation direction of this case.

It can be seen that when he saw the elderly couple, Lu Yi suddenly hoped that they had nothing to do with this case.

The dilapidated tile-roofed house, the dark skin, the hands full of calluses and scars, and the old-fashioned tea set that I didn’t want to throw away when I moved.

The sudden visit of the police witnessed their ordinary yet extremely real nature. The old couple worked diligently and frugally all their lives, but in the end they had to suffer huge losses due to a counterfeit currency case...

Lu Yi would rather work harder and extend the front line of the case than he would like them to be the ones who suffer!
