Chapter 633

~17 min read 3,239 words

At night, when a smuggling ship approached the waters around Jingang City, it stopped the sound of the engine and also turned off all the glowing things on the ship.

This is a smuggling ship from Xiang Yalan, with about two hundred and fifty thousand smuggled alcohol on it.

This is their daily smuggling behavior. They agreed to meet in this area. What they need to do is to unload the wine to the receiver's ship, and then leave with cash.

Now the difficulty of smuggling is much greater than before. Even in the middle of the night, the success rate is not very high.

The Coast Guard's ships search for fishing boats or smuggling ships that need help in the waters without interruption.

They are equipped with some advanced equipment. The sound of the engine and light can be discovered from far away. Now the days are getting harder and harder. If it were not for the low price of these wines themselves, they would very likely not do this.

Two hundred and fifty thousand alcohol, the cost of producing it in Xiang Yalan might be about seventy or eighty thousand.

A profit of 300% is enough to make anyone crazy.

In the night, they merged with the moonlight reflected on the surrounding sea and the dark night sky.

If no one knows they are here, it is difficult to find them.

The people on the ship are waiting quietly. One wait might be one or two hours.

Someone couldn't help but want to smoke. The cigarette was just held in the mouth, and the lighter was taken out and struck, but it didn't light up, and someone slapped his head.

"Do you want to be thrown down to feed the sharks?" A guy who was obviously a small cadre scolded twice. "Did you forget the boss's words?"

"If you want to smoke, wait until we unload the goods before smoking."

"If you attract the Coast Guard because you light a fire, you and your family will go to hell!"

The eyes that were originally dissatisfied and resentful gradually became soft and obedient.

The small cadre looked at the young man in front of him in the moonlight. The faint light shone on his eyes, and then reflected out, with a hint of coldness.

"I was wrong..."

"Well, if you do this again next time, I will throw you down."

Soon, someone suddenly shouted, "There is a ship coming, at three o'clock direction."

They looked toward the three o'clock direction, it was pitch black, and they couldn't see anything.

The guy who made the judgment had a sound receiver specially used to listen to the sound, which could collect the diffused sound around, so that some weak sounds became clear.

About four or five minutes after he said this, a little light lit up from the sea.

A larger fishing boat, the light on the fishing boat seemed to be broken, flashing constantly.

Only these smugglers know the meaning represented by those flashing lights.

This is a kind of secret signal for meeting. Only when the secret signal is matched will they take the initiative to expose themselves.

Watching the other party's light flash the secret signal three times completely, the small cadre let people turn on the light.

Soon this smuggling ship began to respond using light, and the other party easily discovered the situation here.

After the two sides finished the secret signal, they gradually approached each other. The people on the receiving ship used a lasso to connect the two ships together, so that their people could jump onto the smuggling ship.

The gang member responsible for receiving the goods hugged the small cadre of the smuggling. They are not meeting for the first time, nor is it the first time they are responsible for escorting.

After chatting for a few words, the person receiving the goods was led by others into the cabin.

The cabin was full of wine. He picked one box at random, opened it, and then identified it seriously for a while borrowing the slightly dim light.

From the wine flowers formed by rolling back and forth, from the color it was irradiated at night, and everything.

Finally, he opened this bottle of wine, poured a little for himself, and then tasted it.

"This batch of goods is very great!" He praised sincerely.

The "cost" of this kind of wine, including the profit appeal of the gang that produced it and sent it here, is about fifty-five per bottle.

But its price in the bar is more than two hundred per bottle.

This is not the craziest thing. The craziest thing is those cheap whiskeys with a cost of ten dollars. Their price in the bar is basically seventy or eighty per bottle, and some can even be sold to one hundred dollars.

A profit of several times, or ten times or more, it is no wonder that people will go crazy for these things.

Not all places' wine can be sold at a high price. Only a very few cities' wine can be sold at a very high price. Jingang City is one of them.

The leaders of the two groups chatted for a while, then shook hands and hugged each other.

The receiver put two suitcases on the table. The sender did not check whether the money was enough just because everyone often cooperated.

When they started to check whether the money was enough, the receiver had already started to arrange for his subordinates to move these wines out and then load them onto their cargo ship.

"Is it true that the Lanse family in your place said that no bottle of wine that has not been allowed by him is allowed to enter Jingang City?" The small cadre responsible for transporting these wines lit a cigarette.

After twenty minutes, these wines were loaded onto the ship, and everything had nothing to do with him. It can even be said that at this moment, safety and everything had nothing to do with him.

The money had been put into the dark compartment. Don't talk about smoking. If he had fireworks in his hand, he wouldn't care if he set off a firework now.

The person receiving the goods nodded, appearing a bit depressed. "It is indeed like this."

He seemed unwilling to say more. The Lanse family is not famous in the outside world, but within Jingang City, there are finally many people who can see its strength.

It is said that now the entire city's law enforcement departments are Lanse's people. Under such circumstances, the words Lanse said and the rules he formulated really have no good way to bypass him.

Just like buying smuggled alcohol like this now, it can only be said that buying once is less once.

Usually, they only buy about one hundred thousand worth of wine each time, but this time, they bought twenty-five thousand worth of wine, which is considering some changes in the later period.

It's not that they are unwilling to buy more, but they are worried that something will go wrong.

If there is no problem with this transaction, then they will arrange the next transaction as soon as possible, which is nothing more than a day apart.

Listening to the receiver's admission, the small cadre who sent the goods sneered and patted his holster. "If I were you, I would let him know what a big crime it is to block others from making money."

The person receiving the goods didn't intend to continue arguing about this problem. These monkeys in the tropical jungle of Xiang Yalan don't understand the terror of the Lanse family at all.

The current Lanse family can be said to have completely formed a climate. Once they take action, it is not just the level of gang fire fighting, but also police cooperating with them to enforce the law.

You fired, you are attacking the police.

You don't fire, then they will fire first.

No solution.

They dare to trade now, actually, it is also drilling loopholes. Lanse said it is from October, and it is not yet October now.

The two were chatting when suddenly several light sources appeared on the sea, some high-magnification searchlights aimed at them in an instant, and the sound of shouting through the loudspeaker also sounded on the sea.

"This is the Liklai State Coast Guard. Everyone immediately raises their hands and stands on the deck to accept our contact."

"Repeat, this is the Liklai State Coast Guard. Everyone immediately raises their hands and stands on the deck to accept our contact."

Whether it was people moving wine or people who had completely relaxed after escorting goods, they were all stunned.

The dazzling searchlights made them unable to open their eyes, and soon they reacted.

There were two different attitudes among the people on the ship.

The gang members who came to receive the goods in Jingang City raised their hands one after another and stood in the most conspicuous place.

But those smuggling group members from Xiang Yalan tried to fight back.

The cadre responsible for receiving the goods had a look of panic on his face. He watched the guy who was chatting with him just now take out a rifle from under a rainproof cloth, and the consciousness of the whole person appeared for a moment of blankness!

He suddenly shouted with all his strength, "Don't shoot!"

But the moment he opened his mouth, the sound of gunfire also sounded. The words he shouted didn't play any role at all!

Not just one gun, not just one burst of bullets shot out, one of the searchlights was hit and broken, the light suddenly dimmed a lot, and then they began to shoot at another searchlight.

Their idea is very simple. Break these searchlights, and then directly use full horsepower to escape on the pitch-black sea. They are very likely to be able to escape.

If caught, they don't know what to face. It is possible that their families will also be implicated by the boss because they were caught.

This kind of thing often happens in Xiang Yalan, and they often hear about someone losing a batch of goods, or losing a batch of money, and then the whole family being thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

So their only thought now is to find a way to leave here!

But they obviously underestimated the firepower of these Coast Guard members and overestimated themselves.

In the terrified eyes of these gang members who received the goods in Jingang City, the three armed warships on the sea opened fire directly.

The bullets fired by the machine gun can no longer be called bullets. That is a small shell!

The fire tongue sprayed by the four-linked machine gun tore the black curtain of the night at night!

The fearful expression on the receiver's face froze at this moment. One of his companions was torn in half by a bullet head as thick as a child's arm in an instant, and blood and internal organs sprinkled all over the surrounding deck.

On his face, there was even a small piece of intestine or something.

People were constantly torn apart, and the ship's body was also mourning in the strafing, accompanied by a "boom" of artillery, the surrounding sea surface obviously sank a bit.

Even the two ships on the sea had violent bumps.

"Fuck, fuck!"

He could only lie down, as much as possible not to let himself become a target in the metal storm.

This "rainstorm" came very suddenly and ended very quickly.

The machine gunner on the armed warship found that there were no bullets, and licked his tongue with some satisfaction. "It's really enjoyable, but the bullet chain is too short."

"They should design a longer bullet chain..."

A sea breeze dispersed the smoke, and only two floating objects on the sea that were dead and silent like ghost ships remained on the quiet sea in the distance.

They put down a small boat, and some fully armed people sat on the boat and approached the two ships.

Although the firepower coverage time was very short just now, it almost destroyed these two ships, and they were sinking slowly.

There were some gang members who were not hit and called for help loudly, but they only got bullets.

Ten minutes later, the two ships sank to the bottom of the water, but before sinking to the bottom of the water, they used a floating beacon to make a mark.

As an old member of the Coast Guard, they know very well that this kind of transaction is basically a cash transaction.

In other words, there might be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of cash below.

Now it is too dark, they are not very easy to operate, and they will come again when it is dawn tomorrow to find the money inside.

Everyone, not to mention more, it is no problem to divide one or two thousand dollars.

After confirming that there were no survivors, the small boat began to return. They will continue to search the surrounding waters.

Because Lanse said, no bottle of wine is allowed to enter Jingang City without his permission!

Early the next morning, at the customs wharf, two businessmen were surrounding a customs officer, constantly trying to stuff the gold bars and other things that could represent wealth in their hands into the hands of this officer.

But they were all blocked by this officer. Whether it was these things or money, he didn't want any of them, and didn't dare to want them.

"Help, after the matter is over, I can give you another number!"

It is said to be a businessman, but the smell of gangs on them cannot be washed away.

They were notified early in the morning to clear customs, which was originally a good thing, but the bad thing was that their container was randomly selected for inspection.

This is really too bad!

Unlike those gangs who are still trying to smuggle alcohol with smuggling ships, these gangs are obviously more "advanced." They disguise their wine as other goods, and then go through the formal process of customs declaration, and then enter the warehouse of the Jingang City wharf.

Then after disassembly, it can be sent to the designated place, and then filled into glass bottles by the selling gang, and then pasted with wine labels, which is a bottle of original imported wine.

Jingang City is a super port, and its throughput is the first in the Northern Hemisphere. It is impossible for the customs here to check every container, so it has always been a random inspection method.

They will randomly extract some containers for inspection according to various factors such as arrival batch and origin.

The probability of being drawn is very small, and even if it is drawn, they have ways to solve this problem, which is to give money.

Opening the container and taking a look is also an inspection. Opening the container is not just looking at it, but also going in and randomly opening some goods and checking to the end, which is also a kind of inspection.

Giving enough money, most of the officers will raise high and put down lightly.

But this time, I don't know why this officer who had cooperated before didn't accept the money.

"Fifteen thousand!" The guy who followed him couldn't help but offer a higher price. "I guarantee, as soon as the container leaves the wharf, I will immediately let you see that money."

The officer glanced at him sideways. Looking at the face that the other party had sent him money before, he said softly, "You should say these words to Mr. Lanse. As long as he gives me a call now and tells me that I can release the customs, I can sign directly on the inspection list."

A small businessman's face was so ugly that it turned black. "Can't you discuss it at all?"

"No one will know what you did!"

The officer shook his head. "I can't bet the happiness of my family on whether they don't know."

"I can't afford to bet, and I can't afford to lose!"

He said and paused, then pushed the two away. "Sorry, I still have work to do, your time is running out."

The two looked at the back of the officer leaving, looked at each other, and their eyes were full of disappointment and even despair.

Tens of thousands of goods, very likely to be detained.

Once a container is found to have contraband during random inspection, all containers in a batch must be fully inspected.

Those wines that were exported in the name of soybean oil in oil drums will definitely be discovered.

They only have one doubt now, how did the customs find their container?

Hundreds of containers are piled together, even they themselves cannot accurately find their own containers. Why can the customs find them?

They don't understand, but this is not important. What is important is that this batch of goods is finished.

Sharing the same depressed and desperate mood as them are two trucks on the road into Jingang City.

The driver stood on the side of the road. Their car was stopped by the patrol police. The driver was explaining that they didn't know what was in the train, and they couldn't open it casually, otherwise they couldn't explain it.

But the police just demanded that they open the cargo compartment immediately, otherwise they would not be allowed to enter Jingang City, and even talked about arresting them!

"I have never encountered such a thing. Did you see this lead seal?"

"This is the lead seal that the company hit after loading the goods. If I open it casually, I have to compensate for all the losses."

"God, I am just an ordinary driver, why do you have to make it difficult for me!"

A patrolman pinched his waist and said, "We can give you a certificate. It is our request to temporarily check the goods in the truck. If they don't pay you money, or want you to compensate, you can sue them, and we can provide help."

But the driver obviously didn't agree with this point. The bearded driver complained loudly. He was wearing a sleeveless leather jacket and looked a bit fierce. "Why do you have to make it difficult for me?"

"What did I do wrong to make me encounter such a thing?"

"I am not a person who is easy to bully!"

When the emotions were up, he walked two steps toward the patrolman. His tall figure and fierce appearance made the patrolman suddenly become nervous. They immediately pulled out their pistols and loudly demanded that the other party retreat and lie on the ground.

Sometimes after emotions are up, people will lose their reason. The driver felt that he was repeatedly made difficult, and he kept waving his arms while walking forward, expressing his point of view with a flushed face.

But he was too excited, and as an old Federal person, he had not been treated like this for a long time.

This is what those dark-skinned people can enjoy. He thought those police officers would not shoot.

He thought...
