"If it were me, I would demand that the issuance of existing checks be stopped immediately and new designs be produced. In addition, people holding existing checks should be instructed to exchange them for new ones as soon as possible."
"For example?"
"Fold the check from end to end, and the patterns will connect. Or you can use an ultraviolet light to see the Shi family logo, and there are many other ways to distinguish them."
Several managers listened, and although they didn't say anything, they all nodded in agreement.
If this approach is taken, it may be possible to temporarily minimize the losses.
But Uncle Shi Ran scoffed and mocked, "If this continues for a long time, someone will definitely make fakes, and we'll still suffer losses."
"So what will you do?"
"If it were me, I wouldn't cash the check at the window and make them wait a week or so."
"How can this be possible?"
Before Shi Chuan could say anything, the bank manager stood up and objected.
"Banks operate on the basis of trust and credit, and people can deposit money there. If we can't withdraw money and exchange it for cash in a timely manner, how can people trust us?"
"Then what should I do? This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. How about you find a way to identify real checks?"
"I have a way of distinguishing the real from the fake."
"lie!"
Before Shi Ran's father could say what the method was, his uncle immediately called out, but he didn't look at him. He just waited calmly for Shi Ran's grandfather's words.
"Is that true?"
"Yes, Dad. Now give me a fake check and a real one, and I'll show you how to tell them apart."
Without being told, the bank manager had already taken out a fake check and a real check from his pocket.
I came here today with the check just to report it directly to Grandpa Shi Ran, but before I could take it out, Shi Ran's father showed up. Now is a good time.
"Here."
The bank manager gave the check to Shi Ran's father.
"Thank you." Shi Ran's father, holding the check in his hand, turned to look at his younger brother and extended a hand, "Can I borrow your lighter?"
Although he didn't know what it was for, he still took out the lighter.
Then, Shi Ran's father took the lighter and started to light the check.
"What are you doing?"
Uncle Shi Ran yelled.
"Please look at the color of the flames on these two checks."
So, that's when everyone started paying attention.
“The colors are different!”
The different red and blue sparks can be seen at a glance, making people around excited.
"How? Why? When it burns, the color is different?"
"Although we don't know exactly how fake checks are made, we can be sure that the materials used are unusual. Real checks burn red, while fake ones burn blue. We can determine whether a check is genuine by burning a corner of it."
After Shi Ran’s father put out the flames, he said.
"It's this serious, and you can check it right at the window! It's actually burning! It only burned a tiny corner. What an incredible method!" The bank manager said excitedly: "I can't believe it."
"How on earth did you know this method?"
Uncle Shi Ran asked in disbelief.
"It's just good luck. Luck favors a person when he is looking for a way."
“Who could have thought of this method?”
Now that they had a method to identify the check, their attention naturally turned to Shi Ran's grandfather, and everyone was waiting for his decision.
Grandpa Shi Ran took one last look at his two sons in front of him.
Although Shi Ran's father was full of confidence, there was no smile on his face.
Uncle Shi Ran, twisted with anger, also looked at his father.
This is a difficult decision.
But now is the right time, with so many people here and coming to impeach the former acting head early in the morning.
After a moment of silence, Grandpa Shi Ran whispered, "Before I return, let Shi Chuan fulfill his duties as acting head."
"dad!"
Uncle Shi Ran protested in a deafening voice.
Grandpa Shi Ran looked at him calmly.
"Dad, are you really going to do this?" He couldn't contain his anger, and the veins on his neck bulged. "You can't do this just because of a fake check! You can't treat me like this."
He cried out, feeling wronged, like someone whose things had been taken away.
"Do you think the removal of the acting head was just because of that incident?"
"Otherwise, what else?"
He really hasn't realized his mistake yet.
This made Shi Ran's grandfather even more certain that his previous decision was correct.
"That's it." Shi Ran's grandfather said coldly. "You can go now."
Uncle Shi Ran, with his fists clenched and shaking, finally stared at Shi Chuan with a fierce look, then walked out of the bedroom angrily.
Bang!
Although the door was shut heavily, no one cared.
Grandpa Shi Ran sighed and shook his head, but the managers in the bedroom breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Chuan's gaze accidentally fell on Shi Ran's face.
She had a blank expression on her face.
No, Shi Ran was smiling instead.
A sense of victory and accomplishment that was incompatible with that quiet face.
Shi Ran watched all this and to be honest, everything was unexpected, starting from the appearance of these managers.
At first, Shi Ran just wanted her father to solve the problem of fake checks to prevent the bank from suffering huge losses, but unexpectedly, her father actually plucked up the courage to say that he would be the acting person in charge.
