Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 491 The Missing Gold

Smuggling has never been exclusive to private capital, court capital may also smuggle, and it is even more rampant than private capital.

Because they are less likely to be investigated and dealt with, and the success rate of customs declaration is higher.

No one can say for sure that a certain official who is obsessed with money may use the court's money to smuggle and put the stolen money into his own pocket.

But the stolen money is still stolen money. In order to launder the stolen money, it must go through an indispensable process.

And this process of turning black money into white money is called money laundering.

When they learned that there were Arabs involved in this case, Jiang Zhengxun and Chen Jinghe started to split up.

The former contacted the Procuratorate and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to follow up the case, while Chen Jinghe began to check the accounts of the firms behind the Arab businessmen.

A business called Abdullah.

Although the Canton Stock Exchange is only a yamen that manages stocks, there is a team in the Stock Supervision Bureau that is specially used to check accounts and has a certain authority to enforce the law. The whole shop was sealed up.

And the shopkeeper of this firm is no longer surnamed Po, but his name is Jadam Abdullah.

The Abdullah firm itself is also a large firm listed on the Canton Stock Exchange, so there are very clear transaction records in the financial books, and Chen Jinghe quickly found clues about the Hang Lung stock transaction from it.

"This is just a normal business relationship, does it matter?"

An interpreter from Abdullah's firm stepped forward, not only as an interpreter, but also as a litigator.

"Normal?" Chen Jinghe raised his head, and asked back: "Your firm has been engaged in the sales of gold jewelry, doing jewelry transactions, while the Hang Lung firm is a sea trade agent, selling goods from Southeast Asia and Japan. Your firm has nothing to do with it, what are you doing holding a large amount of Hang Lung stock?"

"We want to open up markets in Japan and Southeast Asia, can't we?"

"If that's the case, why did you sell a large amount after you bought it?" Chen Jinghe continued to ask: "You just bought 130 million shares of Hang Lung from Xin Baipeng a month ago, and then sold them to Guangdong in batches. The company has 60 shares, no matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like you want to hold it for a long time and explore the Japanese and Southeast Asian markets.”

The translator Kang Hongjian smiled, and slowly spit out the eight characters.

"Business secrets, no comment."

Chen Jing's teeth were itchy amicably, and he was about to seal up all the account books here and take them away, when his eyes suddenly glanced at a number.

"Gold out of the warehouse, 100 million taels!"

Such a huge number even made Chen Jinghe think that he had been dazzled for a while. After blinking several times, he looked at it again. After confirming it, he looked at Kang Hongjian in astonishment, pointed to this record and questioned.

"Where is it?"

"Our company has a gold mine overseas, of course it was dug out of the gold mine."

"I'm not asking where it was dug out, but where the gold came from your business."

Chen Jinghe went through the account book again and again, but he couldn't find the whereabouts of the gold, so he asked sharply: "For a total of 100 million taels of gold, there must be a record of entry into your company, and a record of storage. , you have neither bank stub records nor customs declaration and entry procedures, only a record of exit from the warehouse. Also, where did such a huge amount of gold go! "

Kang Hongjian's expression changed suddenly, but he still answered coldly.

"No comment."

"Bold!" Chen Jinghe pointed at Kang Hongjian and shouted, "Do you know that I can punish you with just this one incident? A whole 100 million taels of gold entered my Daming inexplicably, and then disappeared without knowing where to go. , your Abdullah firm, how many heads are enough to cut off."

Seeing that Kang Hongjian still didn't intend to say anything, Chen Jinghe didn't hesitate and waved directly.

"Come here, seal and take away all the account books here, and the same goes for people!"

Through the inexplicable 100 million taels of gold, Chen Jinghe is almost certain that the Abu Dhabi firm is likely to engage in smuggling, and it is a very large amount of gold smuggling.

This discovery made Chen Jinghe very excited.

He finally had the opportunity to flex his muscles and solve the case.

At this time, Jadam, the shopkeeper of the store, came over and chattered a lot. Chen Jinghe looked at Kang Hongjian, who sneered.

"If you keep checking, you will regret it."

"It's you who regret it." Chen Jinghe shot back coldly: "A Han Chinese is willing to be a dog's leg for the Arabs. When he dies, he will not do anything. Just wait for his beheading."

Kang Hongjian walked past Chen Jinghe without any fear, and even walked proudly, and said in a very confident tone: "I can't die, at most two days, if you catch us, you have to let us go. "

It's crazy!

Chen Jinghe could not wait to draw his sword and give Kang Hongjian an on-the-spot rectification. After closing Abdullah's shop, he went directly to the stock market supervision bureau to find Jiang Zhengxun, and told the latter what he had discovered by the way.

"This Abdullah firm is simply too rampant."

Jiang Zhengxun hummed: "It's not a year or two for them to be rampant. Of course they have a strong background."

"What background?"

"Think about it, among the Arabs, who can own millions of taels of gold."

Chen Jinghe only thought for a few seconds before blurting out: "Pu Xiangdong."

"That's right, apart from him, there are Arabs who can do such a big business." Jiang Zhengxun confirmed Chen Jinghe's guess: "This Abdullah firm is backed by Pu Xiangdong, although there is no direct holding in name, But I suspect that this Jadam should also be one of Pu Xiangdong's domestic slaves.

Now, the Abdullah company is very suspected of engaging in gold smuggling, and the Guangdong company is also likely to be one of the accomplices in laundering money through stock transactions. Of course, the evidence we have now is not sufficient, and these are just speculations. "

Jiang Zhengxun looked through the account books of Abdullah's firm, and Jiang Zhengxun was amazed at the huge transaction revenue and expenditure.

"The annual transaction volume is tens of millions of taels, and it's only on the books, so how big is the hidden one? It's very likely that it's a shocking case."

An abnormal trading behavior in the stock market, and then involved in a shocking gold smuggling case, think about it, is it really exciting?
Just when Chen Jinghe was gearing up to show off, Jiang Zhengxun poured cold water on Chen Jinghe again with one sentence.

"However, if it is really suspected of smuggling, then this case has to be handed over to the Port Authority of the Municipal Shipbuilding Department. The customs anti-smuggling matter has nothing to do with us. We only care about stocks."

Well, it's not up to me.

Chen Jinghe was suddenly disappointed, but soon his eyes lit up.

"Jiang Bureau, Abdullah's company, but the company listed on our Canton Stock Exchange, their accounts are not clear, that is suspected of stock market fraud, we can use this as an excuse to investigate."

Jiang Zhengxun was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Chen Jinghe and smiled.

"Hey, you're right."

Solving such a major case is a great feat, who wants to let it go?
