C6646 Imperial Bank

1"Using fake money?"    

    

The Pavilion Master was very meticulous. When he heard these two words, he immediately frowned.    

    

Nowadays, the circulation of goods in the world was very fast. With the huge economic network led by Great Qin, it had long covered the entire Heaven Realm. Now, very few people used large amounts of spirit stones to trade.    

    

For small amounts, they used the paper money issued by the government, and for large amounts, they used the banknotes issued by large banks.    

    

The Treasure Gathering Pavilion gathered all the treasures in the world, so it inevitably had to deal with the three sects and nine clans. Therefore, they would often receive fake bills. When he heard the word "fake bill", he was very sensitive.    

    

"Let me see."    

    

The Pavilion Master picked up the silver bills and carefully examined them.    

    

After a moment, a layer of cold sweat appeared on the Pavilion Master's forehead. With his experience and knowledge, he was actually unable to distinguish whether the silver bills were real or fake.    

    

"Esteemed guest, may I ask for your name?" The Pavilion Master asked Lu Yu carefully.    

    

Lu Yu said indifferently, "Is your Treasure Gathering Pavilion still inquiring about the identity of the guest?"    

    

"Whether this silver bill is real or fake, you should quickly give me a conclusion. My time is very precious."    

    

Lu Yu did not want to waste time here either.    

    

However, there must be some kind of treasure here that could summon him.    

    

In the Kunlun Galaxy, there were a large number of ancient ruins. It was hard to say that there was something that Lu Yu needed in some of the ancient objects. Therefore, Lu Yu simply chose to buy all the exhibits on this floor and then slowly examine them.    

    

"Alright, we'll give you an answer as soon as possible." The Pavilion Master replied readily.    

    

"Hehe, how can it be fake? Do you think this is real, Pavilion Master?" Yuan Hong sneered.    

    

The Pavilion Master shook his head. He also did not believe that Lu Yu had the real ticket in his hand. After all, in his impression, only peerless experts or wealthy businessmen who were as rich as a country could take out so much money in one go.    

    

However, Lu Yu's appearance was like a student who was still studying in a private school. He did not look like someone who could control so much wealth at all.    

    

However, the Pavilion Master was experienced after all. Before he was absolutely sure, he would not easily reveal his attitude and even neglect Lu Yu.    

    

"Men, go and invite the people from the Da Yuan Bank over." The Pavilion Master said.    

    

Since he wanted to prove that the silver bills in Lu Yu's hands were real, he naturally had to invite the people from the Da Yuan Bank over.    

    

After all, only by getting the people from the Da Yuan Bank to acknowledge the authenticity of the silver bills could he exchange them.    

    

The maidservant immediately received the order and went out. Soon, three people from the Da Yuan Bank came.    

    

The leader was a woman dressed in luxurious clothes. She was tall and had heavy makeup on her face, and her expression was sharp.    

    

Everyone recognized her as the branch bank master of the Da Yuan Bank in the capital, Gu Xia.    

    

Behind Gu Xia, there were two black-robed cultivators. Their entire bodies were hidden under the thick black robes, making it impossible for others to see their background.    

    

When everyone saw these two black-robed men, they could not help but make way for them.    

    

The Da Yuan Bank, as one of the top banks in the entire Heavenly Realm, the number of gold coins it controlled was simply astronomical. Naturally, it would attract the attention of others. In order to ensure the safety of the money, the Da Yuan Bank had spent a lot of money to create a security army.    

    

Whether it was the money escort or the daily bank security, there were these black-robed figures. Most of them were experts with high strength. There were sects who had carelessly thought about the treasures of the Da Yuan Bank, and they had hired space pirates to rob the transport ships of the Da Yuan Bank. In the end, they were found by the black-robed figures, and the sect was annihilated.    

    

After annihilating dozens of sects, the Heavenly Realm finally became much quieter. Many people were afraid and did not dare to have any thoughts about the Da Yuan Bank.    

    

Many people knew about the existence of these black-robed figures. Therefore, when they saw them coming, they could not help but be afraid.    

    

"Pavilion Master, where is the fake banknote you received?" Gu Xia asked in a deep voice.    

    

Yuan Hong could not wait any longer and directly sent the banknote over. "It's this one."    

    

Gu Xia did not dare to be negligent and immediately checked the banknote.    

    

After checking for a long time, Gu Xia took a deep breath, and a look of relief flashed across her eyes.    

    

"How is it? Is it fake? I knew it was fake!"    

    

Yuan Hong slammed the table and pointed at Lu Yu, scolding, "Quickly admit your guilt! How dare you use a fake ticket? Just wait to go to jail and be sent to three thousand miles away!"    

    

"I think you guys have misunderstood." Gu Xia shook her head. "Your silver bills are indeed real."    

    

What?    

    

Pavilion Master and Yuan Hong revealed shocked expressions at the same time.    

    

Especially Yuan Hong, her entire brain exploded with a buzz, and her mind went blank in an instant. She simply could not believe her ears.    

    

This silver bill was actually real?    

    

How was this possible?    

    

"Check it carefully again. Recently, some skilled craftsmen appeared in the black market. This might be their latest method." Yuan Hong was still unwilling to accept this.    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

Gu Xia frowned. "Are you questioning the appraisal ability of our Da Yuan Bank?"    

    

Yuan Hong immediately lowered his head, not daring to answer.    

    

Although their Treasure Gathering Pavilion was powerful, it was nothing in front of the Da Yuan Bank.    

    

If all the forces in the Heaven Realm were to be divided according to strength, the Da Yuan Bank was enough to enter the top ten. Although their Treasure Gathering Pavilion had already developed to a certain extent, it was still a new force and could not contend with a force like the Da Yuan Bank.    

    

"However, although the silver bills are real, they are not yours."    

    

Gu Xia suddenly looked at Lu Yu.    

    

Lu Yu said indifferently, "Oh? Why isn't he mine?"    

    

"Recently, our Da Yuan Bank lost a banknote. We searched everywhere but couldn't find it. I didn't expect it to be in your hands."    

    

Yuan Hong stared at Lu Yu. "Do you want to answer by yourself or do you want us to force you to say it?"    

    

Hearing this, Yuan Hong burst into laughter.    

    

She clapped her hands and laughed, "Haha, so you weren't the one who made the fake banknotes, but the one who stole the banknotes of the Da Yuan Bank. Your crime is even more serious. You're dead for sure!"    

    

Lu Yu frowned.    

    

He stared at Gu Xia. "Are you sure that the banknote in my hand was stolen by you?"    

    

"Oh? So you're saying that we are slandering you?"    

    

Gu Xia sneered. "Our Da Yuan Bank was established during the Great Yu Dynasty. Now, it is the number one bank in the Heaven Realm."    

    

"The Lu Family of Xianyang is behind our bank. The actual controller is the emperor of Great Qin! Our Da Yuan Bank is the royal bank of Great Qin. The amount of money we handle every day is in the trillions. Do you think we would care about the banknote in your hand?"    

    

She was arrogant and bossy.    

    

Yuan Hong and the other maids took a deep breath. They did not expect the Da Yuan Bank to have such a background.    

    

That was Qin Huang, the top expert in the Heaven Realm. With such a background, it was no wonder that the Da Yuan Bank could run rampant in the Heaven Realm.    

    

"Men, capture him and interrogate him carefully." Gu Xia waved her hand, and the two black-robed men behind her immediately approached Lu Yu.    

    

"Do you have any evidence?" Lu Yu asked coldly.    

    

Gu Xia put her hands on her hips and sneered, "If there is no evidence, why can't Da Yuan Bank protect its own rights?"
