Chapter 1582 The theme of cheating

After the ink on the paper dried, Xun Pengcheng carefully read the content, then carefully folded the IOU and put it away. Although there is no signature of Wang Hao on it, the black and white words on the paper are proof. If this thing is taken to the police station or the court, it will make Wang Hao feel uncomfortable and carry it away.

Xun Pengcheng didn't have any scruples now, and spoke even more relaxedly: "Since Brother Wang has already chosen the land, why don't we find a local construction team to take over the construction of the embassy? I happen to have acquaintances here. ”

Wang Hao declined and said: "There is no need to rush. I will come to Brother Xun for consultation after I have settled the land matter. Brother Xun, when do you think it is more convenient to go to the bank to transfer the account?"

"It's very convenient now. How about we go right now?" Xun Pengcheng asked proactively.

"Okay, if this matter is settled earlier, I can also return to my boss earlier to ask for credit. Thank you Brother Xun. I will definitely report this matter and ask for credit for Brother Xun in the future." Wang Hao was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately said smoothly Then he agreed.

Xun Pengcheng secretly sneered in his heart. Since he had identified Wang Hao's identity, how could he take his promise seriously. As for the boss Wang Hao mentioned many times, Xun Pengcheng actually doubted whether he really existed in this world, and he was probably one of Wang Hao's fictional characters.

After the two of them left the restaurant, Xun Pengcheng called a rickshaw, and then went straight to Haihan Bank not far outside Victory Fort. According to Wang Hao's arrangement, Xun Pengcheng handled the money transfer business at the bank, so that the 40,000 yuan loan could be transferred to the so-called public fund account provided by Wang Hao in the shortest possible time. Of course, if we really want to talk about bank business, Xun Pengcheng knows much better than an outsider like Wang Hao. He is very clear about the procedures for transferring money from the bank. After all, he used to be a reporter. Monthly wages are also withdrawn through bank transfers.

The two of them entered the bank lobby one after another. Wang Hao seemed to be familiar with the environment here. It seemed that he had come to familiarize himself with the environment and bank procedures in advance. Various access receipts are placed on the counter in the middle of the hall for customers to fill in. White paper with pen and ink is also provided so that customers can record some important information at any time.

Wang Hao took a pen and paper, wrote down his account number and gave it to Xun Pengcheng, who went through the transfer procedures. Xun Pengcheng took it and looked at it, nodded to Wang Hao and said, "Brother Wang, please wait for a moment, and we will go through the formalities now."

Wang Hao bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Xun!"

Xun Pengcheng arrived at the counter with the sign "Large Transaction" and only waited for two rounds before his number was called. After Xun Pengcheng sat on the chair, on the other side of the counter was a thin man in his forties, who said softly: "What kind of business do you want to handle?"

Xun Pengcheng bowed down, got as close as possible to the other party, and lowered his voice and said: "The person who came with me is the man in green shirt sitting behind. This man is a charlatan. He is pretending to be an official of the Ming Dynasty to deceive. Please give me a warning. Don’t let this thief escape!”

The thin yellow man's expression did not change, he just looked up at Xun Pengcheng and said, "Are you sure? This is no joke!"

Xun Pengcheng took out his ID number plate, pushed it in front of the teller and said: "I am a citizen of Haihan, and I have the obligation to report this person. After this person is arrested, I will also come forward to testify." After that, he wrote Wang Hao He also took out the IOU, unfolded it and put it in front of the other party.

The content of the IOU was not complicated. The thin yellow man read it in just two glances. The borrowing of 40,000 and the repayment of 50,000 was certainly not a legitimate loan. Although the IOU had not been signed or pledged, since someone reported it in person As an official financial institution, banks are also obliged to take care of fraud.

"Please sit down for a moment, and I will go through the formalities for you." The thin yellow man took Xun Pengcheng's ID number plate and the IOU, and hurriedly left the counter.

Xun Pengcheng looked back and saw Wang Hao looking this way. Xun Pengcheng smiled and nodded towards Wang Hao, indicating that everything was normal.

After a while, the thin yellow man returned to his seat and said to Xun Pengcheng: "I'll beg you to cooperate with me later."

"It should be." Xun Pengcheng just wanted Wang Hao to be arrested at this time. As for other issues, he could put them aside for now.

Sure enough, as soon as the thin yellow man finished speaking, several police officers in black came in from the gate. The leading police officer left two people guarding the door. Then, after looking around in the hall, he came towards Wang Hao.

Xun Pengcheng clearly saw a trace of panic on Wang Hao's face, which made him feel happy. If he hadn't been vigilant enough, this damned liar would have taken away this newly acquired property that he hadn't warmed up yet. He didn't need to ask to figure out that if he really transferred the 40,000 yuan, Wang Hao would never accept it as soon as it was good. Instead, he would seize the opportunity and continue to deceive himself into giving money until he was completely drained.

Two black-clothed policemen came forward to question Wang Hao, and then took out the handcuffs and prepared to handcuff him away. Wang Hao quickly stood up and said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Sanya is here to handle official business for Daming, not a gangster, everyone." Don’t admit the wrong person! I have a witness, and the person sitting over there can prove that I am a good person!”

When the leading police officer heard this, he walked up to Xun Pengcheng and asked him: "Can you... help him prove his identity?"

Xun Pengcheng knew that this police officer should have been notified by the bank, and he was very cooperative at the moment: "I am just a civilian. This man told me that he was an official of the Ming Dynasty, but I don't know whether he was true or not." "That's it, then you also come with us. Let's go!" The police officer raised his hand and motioned for Xun Pengcheng to get up.

Xun Pengcheng reminded: "Police officer, my ID number plate and physical evidence are still in the bank's possession..."

"I know, I will handle it." The police officer nodded, indicating that he understood the ins and outs of the matter.

So Xun Pengcheng and Wang Hao were quickly taken away by the police and went to the police station for an investigation. The truth of the matter soon came to light. Wang Hao's identity certificate was an official document stamped with the seals of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty and the seals of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. The police station was not sure whether it was authentic or not, so they immediately notified the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to send someone to check. An officer from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came immediately, and after looking at it, he determined that it was a forged seal. The official document establishing diplomatic relations between Ming Dynasty and Haihan has long been sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Comparing it with the seal on it will tell whether it is true or false. The seal of the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi is also one of the official seals of the Ming Dynasty commonly used by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so there is no way to fool it.

The seals and official documents were both forged, so Wang Hao's identity was naturally destroyed. After showing him the physical evidence, Wang Hao had to admit that he had pretended to be an official of the Ming Dynasty and came to Haihan to defraud. Wang Hao had actually come to Sanya before the arrival of the typhoon, but he had never met Xun Pengcheng. And his experience of being promoted to an official position in the Ming Dynasty is of course fake. After all, it is unlikely that any official would be reduced to cheating, let alone someone with an official status.

After Wang Hao separated from Xun Pengcheng in Guangzhou, he did work as a clerk in a government office for a period of time. Then he fell into debt because of his gambling addiction, and even his iron rice bowl job was reimbursed. In desperation, Wang Hao could only rely on his little cleverness to make a living in society. The more places he traveled, the bolder he became and his ideas became more complicated.

A few days ago, Wang Hao heard the news in Guangdong that Ming Dynasty was going to establish diplomatic relations with Haihan, and he was thinking about how to make money by taking advantage of the situation. After much deliberation, he finally had no choice but to cheat. Wang Hao believes that Haihan people are stupid and have a lot of money, and he relies on his acting skills and reactions to walk alone in the world. If he goes to Haihan to pretend to be an official of the Ming Dynasty, as long as he does not contact the officials and expose his secret, there should be a high chance that he can be deceived. than ordinary people.

As for the deception script, he secretly came to Sanya as an official of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty to prepare for the construction of the embassy, ​​and then waited for an opportunity to squeeze money and other benefits from the target. In order to make this plan look more perfect, Wang Hao also put a lot of effort into making up the details of the story, and formulated different plans for people who are greedy for money, greed for power, greed for sex, etc., which can be said to be very thorough. He almost succeeded within a few hours of meeting Xun Pengcheng, which showed that his preparations were indeed effective. Before and after he met Xun Pengcheng, he had been looking for a similar target, but Xun Pengcheng happened to be an old friend he knew, so he could waste less time explaining it.

If Wang Hao's script had been applied to another ordinary person, it might have been effective, but he met Xun Pengcheng, an old friend who had gained rich social experience after coming to Haihan, so he used all his methods It all became a poor performance in the eyes of the other party, and Xun Pengcheng didn't even plan to report him before the performance was over. It wasn't until he came to the bank that there was no room to play with Wang Hao anymore, and Xun Pengcheng finally ended the game.

Although Xun Pengcheng was the whistleblower, the police still interrogated him for investigative purposes. When they learned that Xun Pengcheng was a reporter who had just resigned from Express News, the police officers who interrogated him were a little surprised: "If your newspaper were to write news about this case, it would probably be the headlines in the past two days!"
< br>

Xun Pengcheng laughed twice, but did not answer the question. If he was still working at the Express, he would probably be the one doing the research and writing about this case, and it might indeed arouse some discussion in the society. But now that he has resigned from the newspaper and left, what else is there to say?

The policeman looked at the record and asked: "You promised Wang Hao to lend him 40,000 yuan to help him with his turnover. Do you really have that much money?"

Xun Pengcheng quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, I am a small reporter who covers social news. How can I have so much property? This is purely to stabilize this liar. Let alone 40,000, even if he asks for 400,000, I will not Come on, if he lied to me, I’ll lie to him too, right?”

The number in Xun Pengcheng's bank account is actually not more than 40,000, but he does not dare to expose his wealth because he really has no way to explain where such a large amount of money in his account comes from. If he only relied on the little income he earned as a reporter, he would not be able to save such a large amount of money even if he retired without eating or drinking. If this is discovered by the police, it will definitely be investigated as a point of suspicion. By then, Xun Pengcheng and Ma Dalan have interests in each other, and they will no longer be able to hide it.

Xun Pengcheng's explanation made sense, and the police didn't dwell too much on this issue and just let him go. After signing and stamping the transcript, Xun Pengcheng's task of cooperating with the investigation was over. The investigation of Wang Hao will not end so quickly. The police must at least determine whether he has other accomplices and whether he has other fraud records in the past. If there are other victims, then they must open a separate investigation.

Before the gossip newspapers on the market got news about this case, the relevant investigation reports had been sent to the Police Department. After the case was classified here, it was reported to Ren Liang, who then reported it to the Executive Committee. Make a report.

In the recent public security situation report submitted by the Police Department to the Executive Committee, the fraud case encountered by Xun Pengcheng was also included as one of the cases. The recent frequent fraud incidents in Haihan attracted the attention of the Executive Committee. .

These fraud incidents basically have one thing in common, that is, they only began to appear after the news of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Ming Dynasty and Haihan, and the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries was used as an important theme for fraud. Cases like Wang Hao's case of impersonating Ming officials or even special envoys are not uncommon. There are even cases of impersonating Ming Dynasty eunuchs in an attempt to defraud people of money. Among the many fraud cases, there have indeed been successful cases, but so far, no scammer has successfully taken the money away from Haihan. Although the luckiest person fled back to Guangdong with the defrauded money, he was captured by the Guangdong Office immediately after disembarking at the Pearl River Pier. After all, no matter how fast the ship was, it was impossible to outrun the telegraph, as long as it was controlled by Haihan. Where to go, no matter how you escape, it is impossible to escape from the area controlled by Haihan.

"You see, the benefits of establishing diplomatic relations with the Ming Dynasty have not been brought yet. Instead, a lot of troubles have come." Tao Donglai spread his hands and expressed his helplessness about this situation: "If we don't take care of it, then we will be in trouble." In a while, there may really be a fraud gang that comes to Sanya with a guard of honor to commit fraud.”

"I will keep a close eye on this situation." This task can only be taken on by Ren Liang, but he is obviously also a little dissatisfied with the root cause of this situation: "But having said that, when will the Ming Dynasty's mission We’ve just arrived? When the real owner comes out, these monsters will disappear.”

"Have you arrived in Guangzhou as scheduled? We can confirm it after the telegram from the Guangdong Office comes back." Schneider was not in a hurry about the matter: "Anyway, the duck has been cooked, and it is impossible to fly away now. Besides, the dilemma in the north has not yet been resolved. Ming Dynasty should be more anxious than us. If we are anxious first, it will be difficult to negotiate terms later.”
