Orc Tyrant
Chapter 558: Smuggling chain (below)
"What's inside?"
Peter looked at the liar pretending to be a rich businessman.
"Nothing, nothing."
The sweaty man assured him that although the expression in his eyes was well covered up, his reaction was a bit too fast, and these could not escape the eyes of the inspectors.
"Some of the second-hand goods that are going to be shipped to the Benedict Empire were not transferred to me by Bourbon. I am right—"
"The Holy Father swears, yes yes yes."
Peter glanced at the manifest attached to the box, then turned to Edlin, raising his eyebrows too exaggeratedly to express his surprise.
"He was telling the truth, and the manifest said it was shipped to Tyre."
He waited specifically for the smuggler’s eyes to relax before adding a key sentence.
"It will be transported away on the Grey Snake."
"Really?"
Adelin also raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
"Mechanical Parts?"
"Yes."
The businessman nodded, trying his best to show that he was cooperating.
"Local goods, I don't know how Bourbon plans to dispose of them, but I think they can always be sold, right?"
"Yes it is."
Peter agreed, but still looked suspiciously at the contents of the box.
This city is not only a port, but also one of the most important industrial areas in Vedria. About one-third of the factories on the outskirts of the city are arsenals, and many of its weapons are used to fill Benedict. The endless appetite of the empire serves as one of the trade chains of food-for-products.
But just as water flows to low places, a small part of the product always flows into the ground.
Then he opened a box and immediately tried to hide his surprise.
"It's just rubbish!"
"It can't be just rubbish."
Yang De scolded him while leaning over to look, then frowned, and looked back at Adelin.
"But it's not far from garbage."
He began to study the rusty metal objects.
"Almost all weapons are scrapped."
"Standard weapons?"
Adelin asked cautiously, but Yang De shook his head.
"It is indeed a military standard, but these gadgets are all popular products, there is nothing scarce or abnormal."
Adelin thought that it really made sense. The industry of the Benedictine Empire was extremely backward, but their border pressure was huge, so they were very happy to exchange their products for some weird or old weapons.
"Where did you get these?"
"Some underground channels."
The liar answered very calmly:
"I bought it from [Black Eye] Yasco, and he often trades with people in the military."
"He still interacts with people in the House, doesn't he?"
Although Adelin asked this, he already had the answer in his mind.
[Black Eyes] Yasco, the biggest gang leader in Asmedog, a brutal beast, enough to be hanged dozens of times.
But he is still alive and well, even able to walk in the sun, because he is the white glove of the Solisk family.
The ancestors of this family were once a member of the founding fathers, and were well-known wealthy merchants who traveled between the old and new continents, but during the colonial uprising they took out all their possessions to support the militias who resisted.
The family has always played an important role in the political circles of the Republic. There have been five presidents alone, and there are countless members.
But politics can never be separated from money, and the Solsk family is the same, and even has a greater appetite than other political families. Under normal business activities, sweet cakes such as smuggling, which are more profitable, naturally become them. Encounter the goal.
Yasco was the lucky one who was favored by the Solisk family. With the help of this political giant, he went from a street gangster to the sky, and in just five years he became the one in charge of the underground world of Asmet. "Godfather" and hired a dozen lawyers to **** him
.
He himself was arrested at least three times, but each trial resulted in an acquittal, which made many people, including law enforcement officials, extremely disappointed with the laws of the Republic.
"I think so."
The smuggler nodded again, shaking his surroundings with sweat again.
"Yasco's hands and eyes are open to the sky, there is nothing he can't get."
"Then I think I'm finished."
After Edlin finished speaking, feeling the faint trembling from the soles of the shoes, it was obvious that another ship had landed.
The next thing to do is to send this group of people back to the prosecutor’s office, and they will become evidence along with the contraband they smuggled. Of course, they have to remove the dead body, probably a few people, but they can also throw the body at There, let the police officer at the port want to break his head...
But he knew very well that these alone could not pose any threat to the black eye, because everything was just a side word of the smuggler, and in fact they did not have any evidence to prove where these weapons came from.
But, one day, Adelin believed that he would end up with that thug-in the name of the real law.
"My God!"
Suddenly, Yang De yelled and took out an object from the depths of the box he was looking for.
Then he carefully extended his hand to the longest and held the object firmly, his expression was both fascinating and disgusting.
"Ok's teeth are still the most valuable fangs."
Adelin couldn't help but pronounce the name of this disgusting object.
This is a yellowed fang, which is as long as a dagger. It comes from a green beast. It is at least a small boss in length.
Since the Ouke invasion began, people's understanding of this creature has gradually deepened. Many biologists and sociologists are studying them. One thing that puzzles many people is that their currency is actually their own teeth.
This sounds rather stupid, but it does not prevent many people from finding profit.
Can a creature like Ouke be traded?
The conclusion is that of course it is possible. As far as Aidlin knows, their vassal harpy seems to often trade with them. Since it can be traded, then this kind of tooth clearly has "value".
Especially when Oak plundered a huge amount of wealth in a series of wars, but didn't know how to use it.
At first, it was just a small group of vendors who bought teeth from border soldiers, and then turned to the harpy smugglers in exchange for real money.
This kind of trade was quickly declared illegal by the government, but the high profits allowed many people not to be deterred by jail, and to enter the state of underground trading. Even some large smuggling groups have begun to collect Ouke’s teeth and organize ships by themselves. The team went to Jaeger City to trade and reduce the price difference loss of middlemen.
However, these transactions are all on the eastern coast. It is the first time that Aidlin has seen the smuggling of Oak teeth on the western coast, because these border states are currently high-pressure areas, and the supervision is very strict. There is no way to avoid port affairs. Personnel's eyes.
Another point is that the people here generally hate Oak more than the people in the eastern states.
"Collaboration with the enemy obviously makes you very rewarding."
"It's hard to be collaborating with the enemy, right?"
The smuggler said with a smile, apparently thinking that his smile would ease the atmosphere.
"After that you will know if it is right or not, take it away."
