Chapter 676: They Went to Hong Langman
After ending the call, Yu Dazhang returned to the interrogation room.
"What price did Zhang Jiangke offer you?"
Since Zhang Qian's floor price for others was one hundred thousand per person, the price Zhang Jiangke offered must have been even higher.
"Twelve thousand per person, fifteen thousand for good quality," Zhang Qian replied:
"I asked other big shots in this line of work in other provinces; they all have this price."
"Actually, our take-home profit isn't much, because we still have to give commissions to the middlemen, but luckily this money comes easily; we just need to pass it along, and the money is earned."
This profit isn't even high? Yu Dazhang truly didn't know how to comment.
As everyone knows, retail definitely doesn't earn as much as wholesale.
Most importantly, at Zhang Qian's level, she doesn't need to commit crimes personally; this way, the risk of exposure also decreases accordingly.
"How do you and Zhang Jiangke usually contact each other?" Yu Dazhang asked again.
"By phone," Zhang Qian replied with a calm expression:
"But every time he calls me, and the phone numbers are all different; this method of changing SIM cards was taught to me by him."
Changing SIM cards seems simple, but it can effectively prevent being tracked.
Her meaning was clear: finding Zhang Jiangke through positioning was almost impossible.
"But he has a foreign phone number he uses frequently."
Zhang Qian continued:
"Before, when he was abroad, he often used that number to call me; once I called back, it connected."
"That number is 95988649..."
Starting with 95? In Yu Dazhang's impression, only phone numbers from Old Myanmar have this format.
So, Zhang Jiangke is a human trafficker who has lived in Old Myanmar for a long time?
Don't think everyone over there is involved in telecom fraud.
Let's put it this way: without those human traffickers, Northern Myanmar couldn't have developed at all.
The foundation of telecom fraud is people; only with enough people can the scale be expanded.
"The last time he contacted me, he used a domestic phone number."
Zhang Qian added:
"That's why I concluded he is still in the country, and since the price of this business is so tempting, he will definitely take this opportunity to make a big score."
Make a big score? Yu Dazhang quickly caught the key point in her words.
So, that Zhang Jiangke is also a second-hand trafficker; the business he does is also resale, only his scope of operations is nationwide.
Until this moment, Yu Dazhang realized he had previously underestimated the trade of human traffickers.
Unlike those small-time players who fire once and move to a new place, the real circle of human traffickers is actually such a vast and complex network.
As long as the money is right, there are plenty of people in this circle willing to sell their lives, and at the same time, this network will uniformly integrate the people trafficked by these traffickers.
"Zhang Jiangke acquires so many girls; what exactly does he do with them?"
Yu Dazhang estimated that Zhang Qian didn't have an answer to this question either, but he still had to ask.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhang Qian shook her head:
"I don't know either; the rule of this trade is to hand over people and collect money; no one asks about the purpose. I estimate Zhang Jiangke doesn't know the final destination of these girls either."
This answer is interesting... Yu Dazhang immediately heard her subtext.
A human trafficker who can acquire people nationwide is considered the highest level in this circle, yet even such a person doesn't know the final destination of those girls.
This means...
The person who spent a huge sum to buy girls is not from the human trafficker circle.
The reason is simple: if the other party were inside the circle, they wouldn't let these human traffickers pass through so many hands.
"From your perspective, what is the purpose of the person spending money to buy girls?"
Yu Dazhang wanted to see what Zhang Qian thought.
Although human traffickers don't ask about the purpose among themselves, they must have speculated on it; after all, curiosity is something no one can completely control.
