Chapter 2256: Chapter 2076: 500 Tons of Gold
Fortunately.
In recent years.
Thanks to the intelligence provided by the fighters, within Huaxia’s borders, any slightly larger fraud syndicates are brought down before they can grow too big.
The benefits are numerous.
Firstly.
People often see on TV that some fraud syndicate has been arrested, increasing their vigilance.
Secondly.
It also prevents the emergence of large ’scam villages’. Just as they’re starting, they get wiped out, and seeing this, who would dare take the risk?
As a result.
Many turn abroad.
Unfortunately.
They still can’t escape suppression. Often, the reason foreign fraud syndicates are hard to crack down on is that the evidence is hard to gather, and you can’t just trace it through their internet.
No way.
That’s their country’s internet.
You can only watch.
Entering is an option too.
Investigate!
That requires the relevant departments of the respective country to act. Moreover, gathering other evidence is also challenging. However, if you have evidence, it’s a different story.
For example.
Someone in the syndicate suddenly rediscover their conscience.
Reports it with their real name.
Or.
Sends the company’s relevant information to the cyber police, obtaining direct evidence makes it simple. Location, personal information, precise to every individual.
What more to say?
Arrest!
Even if some syndicates have protection in certain parts of Southeast Asia, they can’t control everything. Even if they escape, they struggle to survive in that country.
After all.
The information is there.
Run?
Directly on the wanted list.
Airplane.
Passport.
Visa.
All recorded, if foreigners, they directly become undocumented. In this way, one cross-border fraud syndicate after another falls into the net. Those who need to be caught are caught, and those who need extradition are extradited.
Those who need sentencing are sentenced.
Deterring countless budding evils.
Of course.
Even under these conditions, it remains rampant. Interestingly, those non-remote fraud activities where health products are sold to the elderly.
Are gradually diminishing, almost disappearing.
The reason?
Transcription Fluid.
Pfft!
If even cancer can be cured, why buy that stuff? This is a by-product of advancements in medical technology, unless someone claims their product ensures longevity.
Otherwise.
In general.
No one would spend thousands on that stuff, making a loss. Therefore, it’s no longer needed to combat this, but rather to improve several aspects of medical technology.
Of course.
Phone fraud.
Insurance fraud.
These two are the major cases, but there’s still an abundance of scams pervading locally, impossible to combat entirely, as many are opportunistic.
Someone.
Runs out of money.
Okay.
Finds someone and says: I’m XX, I have XX billion in assets at XX, need money to unseal it. Many such acts are not of a syndicate nature.
Phone calls.
Internet.
They don’t use any.
Just a word.
Is a scam.
In this way, Tang Qing has no way of knowing, he’s not omniscient, and can only say: Our powers are limited; we can’t manage everything in the world.
...
Two days later.
In Myanmar.
A piece of news once again shocks the world, as the Myanmar Bank Group announces that the first batch of gold futures has been delivered, and the second batch is now on sale.
Not much.
Five hundred tons.
Immediately.
The world was in an uproar.
"What the heck!"
"Five hundred tons? Is there an extra zero?"
"God!"
"Is today April Fool’s Day? Since when can gold sales casually be measured in hundreds of tons, last time three hundred tons, this time five hundred tons."
"How much is this worth? A trillion Asia Dollars?"
"About right."
"Over a hundred billion US dollars... I don’t even know what to say, even in the year with the highest mining output in South Africa, it was less than this."
"Terrifying!"
"What kind of gold mine is this, with such high production?"
"..."
Envy.
Jealousy.
Five hundred tons of gold—only a handful of countries in the world have reserves reaching this number, and you’re just selling five hundred tons at once, is that okay?
This is naked flaunting of wealth.
Heavens!
Madness!
"Strongly request the disclosure of the gold source. Let us see what kind of gold mine can be so frightening; otherwise, we resolutely won’t buy."
"Yes."
"Won’t buy without disclosure."
"Exactly."
"..."
These remarks.
Many are shouting.
Unfortunately.
To no avail.
Because it was never intended for individual consumers, but rather bulk demand, for national reserves and major related companies, not individuals.
Shouting till you’re hoarse, it’s useless.
"With such large quantities of gold for sale, I can’t help but suspect again that the Myanmar Bank Group might have misappropriated Myanmar Central Bank’s gold reserves."
"I hope the Myanmar Central... Myanmar authorities... international authoritative organizations will provide a conclusion."
At this point.
The hesitation.
Highlighting that person’s frustration, because the Myanmar Central Bank is almost considered part of the Myanmar Bank Group, with Myanmar’s highest authority as its BOSS.
Therefore.
The last ’self-refutation’ is still fresh in everyone’s memory.
Annoying.
"Rightly said."
"Must investigate."
"I too have some doubts now; three hundred tons could be understood, but another five hundred tons, what kind of gold mine is this, with such high quality, I’m very skeptical."
"Indeed! It’s too bizarre."
"..."
More and more people are questioning whether the Myanmar Bank Group is secretly selling the Myanmar Central Bank’s gold reserves; otherwise, what kind of gold mine is this?
With such high production.
As if producing iron ore.
Moreover.
The outcry is growing.
Even.
People in Europe and America are suggesting.
"To prove innocence, it’s suggested that Myanmar hand over more than two thousand tons of gold reserves to the Federal Reserve for safekeeping. I won’t doubt it however you sell it afterward."
"Makes sense."
"Should be done."
"We can help you keep it."
"..."
Many people are in agreement.
In response.
The Myanmar authorities remain silent. Countries take it as a joke, joking that once it’s gone, it won’t come back. How many countries can’t retrieve their gold from there?
However.
Just when they thought it would be ignored, the Myanmar Bank Group announced: Once this batch of gold is sold out, the gold mine location can be revealed to the public.
For a moment.
It became even more lively.
"Haha, we won." Some believed it was their threat that worked, rejoicing like snatching candy from a child.
Joyous.
"Finally, unveiling the veil? Looking forward to it."
"Great."
"Waiting for the announcement, and to the countries wanting to buy, hurry up, it’s best if it sells out today." They happily added a condition that they would reveal after selling out.
"Yes, yes, quickly."
"..."
Countless eyes turn.
Gold Mine.
In human history.
It’s always been synonymous with wealth. Such a mine, producing a thousand tons annually in recent years, has pushed Myanmar to the position of the third-largest gold reserves country globally.
It’s truly horrifying.
Moreover.
Calculating.
Without misappropriating the Myanmar Central Bank’s reserves, if last year’s three hundred tons weren’t sold and this year’s five hundred tons weren’t sold either, dear God!
Nearly three thousand five hundred tons, the world’s second-largest, second only to the United States.
To surpass?
Impossible.
The United States’ more than eight thousand tons of gold reserves are more than double that of the second place; if there were really such a terrifying gold mine, many people would envy it to death.
God’s favor.
Otherwise.
Such a thing couldn’t happen, absolutely impossible.
