On 30 August 1794, Fukang’an 福康安 (1753–1796), Governor-general of Sichuan, informed the Qianlong emperor (r. 1736–1795) in a memorial that a large counterfeiting enterprise had been uncovered in the border region of Guizhou and Sichuan. Apparently the site of the crime was called “Old Crow’s Nest”(Laoyawo 老鴉窩) and the scale of the bandits’ operation was increasing day by day. They had already built dozens of furnaces and shacks and, to some extent, were armed to be prepared for all eventualities. The leaders were said to ride proudly on horseback, to assemble gamblers and to commit all kinds of evil deeds, which could only be described as unscrupulous and shameless. 1* Centred on this case study a textbook on Qing documentary Chinese for students and others interested in Chinese history has been authored by Cao Jin, Sabine Kink and Hans Ulrich Vogel. It contains a great variety of primary sources of different genres and provides detailed information on the case. The book is entitled Die Falschmünzerbande vom Alten Rabenhorst
