Chapter 1115: Asking for Blessings
Here, when Weng Yeming heard Zhang Nan talk about smuggling, he seemed to have a struggle of thoughts, and then he said: "Brother-in-law, I don't touch the smuggling business, and I don't lack that money." Besides, I'm still studying with the teacher, but I don't have time to get some money, and my sister will cut me 100% if she knows about it.
He doesn't touch Aihua either, but there are little brothers below him who sometimes stop by and do something, but he can't care about it, and he wants to live a good life.
Brother-in-law, there are smuggled goods everywhere now, and some people joke that they are embarrassed to go out without some smuggled goods.
Is this really going to be a bad luck?"
"It is estimated that there is not much of a problem in recent years, where is there no smuggling along the coast now?
Brother Guan's other hometown is a typical example, now there are some foreign countries where you can buy everything, and the speed boats that run the smuggling connection can't catch up with the speed border defense boats, and even the smuggling boats with armor are available.
With smuggled goods, it's fashionable to say it, is it normal?
Now the state is not strict in grasping this, but wait, in a few years, 100% of the crackdown will be the same as in previous years, and those who make it big will have bad luck!
I'll tell him that his little brothers want to make money, so they should bring some money to Qiong Province.
It's all smuggled like this, and no one can say anything wrong to make some legitimate investment money.
As long as you don't be greedy, get a few votes and leave, don't be too big, you can earn it several times casually.
When he comes back, he will honestly engage in real estate, and if he can't become a predator in the future, he can only blame himself for being stupid!"
Stupid, it's been smooth these days.
Smuggling, smuggling, since the beginning of the car, this is the same thing as smuggling cars at all times, but there is a difference between more and less.
Before the liberation, there were smuggling cars in China, and it is estimated that there were also in the twenty or thirty years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
In another twenty or thirty years, there will still be smuggling, but it is much less than in the 90s: it is less, and the smuggling in imported cars is several times that of the regular ones.
In the 90s, smuggled cars were rampant and crazy, that was for its special reasons, China has been reforming and opening up for more than ten years, and the first batch of real rich people in China appeared in large quantities, and the demand for imported cars increased sharply compared with the 80s!
What Toyota Crown, Duke Nissan, Mitsubishi Pajero, Lexus, BMW, Mercedes S, Audi, Cadillac, Lincoln...
However, except for rich people like Zhang Hui, the price of imported cars in Huaxia is really expensive, too expensive, and super expensive!
A government worker's monthly income is only about 300 yuan, or even less than 300, and the car will be sky-high!
It is a sky-high price for the common people, and the average boss can't bear this price: a Santana is at least 1780,000 yuan, and a Xiali is 71,000 yuan, and imported cars are even more expensive!
In the 90s, luxury cars such as Bentley and Rolls-Royce have not been imported into China in batches, and there are no 4S stores to sell cars.
There is no Internet in China, and the price of a car is not as transparent as it will be 20 years later, and the price difference between the same car in all regions of the country will be very large: a domestic Santana is said to be 140,000 yuan, the cheapest price is 170,000 yuan, and in some places it is as high as 220,000 yuan.
Why is the gap so big?
Because the tax standards are different in different places, most places have education surcharges and road construction fees for buying a car...
Well, I don't know if there is a family planning sponsorship fee.
Anyway, there are all kinds of messy expenses, and there are actual situations in various places, and there are a lot of messes.
Those who can buy a car have money, just add more, and the local government can have more income.
This is still the situation of domestic car sales, if you buy imported cars, it is not only those: with the seventh-generation 140 Mercedes-Benz 600SEL that Zhang Nan is sitting on now, for example, the price of the Germans plan to start at 120,000 US dollars when it is launched on a large scale in the United States, which will make Huaxia's comprehensive import tariff 180%-220%, and 120,000 US dollars of cars will be sold to Huaxia domestic...
$360,000 is a small matter!
Plus transportation costs, purchase tax, insurance, education surcharges, road construction fees...
Don't think about the official exchange rate of five yuan, three cents and two, simply calculate it to eight, and start at 3 million.
More than 2 million to buy a Mercedes-Benz S600?
That was after the comprehensive tax fell to 110-150% in 1994, and even if the tax was lowered, imported cars through formal channels were still expensive, so there was a large number of smuggled cars.
If there is demand, there will be a market, this is a natural law, you can only control, it is difficult to put an end to it.
If you can buy a full vehicle for smuggling, you are lucky, at least the quality of the car is guaranteed, of course, the price is relatively high.
Weng Yeming said that the company bought a few assembled cars to fill the façade, which is a kind of import of parts and domestic assembly, which is "relatively formal", and pays 33% of the tax on the import of parts.
The parts of these assembled vehicles are at least new, and as for the assembled vehicles that are "completely smuggled", they are basically unloaded in foreign countries, and the new, old, and stolen vehicles are first unloaded, and then smuggled to China for assembly, which is actually an assembly of old parts.
New parts?
Don't think about it, it is unlikely that the stolen "newer second-hand cars" are basically extremely cheap "seven or eight hand" old cars abroad, which are dismantled into parts and smuggled to China after assembly, cleaning and polishing before being sold.
However, it is troublesome to reassemble the assembled car, and it is necessary to have good technology, and not every boss who engages in smuggling cars can find a talent like Lao Wang of the Yanxian overhaul factory at the beginning.
In addition, many smuggling vehicles are transported in containers, and in order to save transportation volume and effectively use space, Chinese smugglers have also "invented" a very distinctive type of smuggling vehicles: top-cutting vehicles.
Cut off the roof of the car, so that several layers of car body can be stacked in a container, and the cut roof and windshield can be found in an air raid plug, or packed in other boxes for transportation.
When you get to the place, you will weld the roof on, and polish and paint the outside, which is not very visible anyway.
As for whether the welding and painting places will rust and break in the future, it is not for those who engage in smuggling to worry about it.
If you drive such a car in case of an accident, don't roll and turn your feet to the sky, otherwise hehe!
In the early and mid-90s, the sales volume of smuggled cars in Huaxia was at least 4-5 times that of regular import channels.
No way, smuggling cars are cheap!
In 95, Zhang Nan was still working as a native master, and once saved some money to go back to his hometown, he met a friend he knew before and drove a very glamorous Mitsubishi coupe.
Zhang Nan felt that the car cost at least 300,000 yuan, and when he asked the person how much it was, the other party said that he got it back for 25,000 yuan, and the license plate cost another two or three thousand.
If you drive it for a few days, you can sell it for at least 35,000 yuan, if Zhang Nan wants it, an old friend, give 30,000 yuan to this car and it will belong to him.
Yes, sell smuggled cars to support a guy who drives his own car.
Zhang Nan has this money, and he finally saved it, and the car is liked, but...
The previous houses were sold, and this trip back was to buy a house, not the car, and finally bought a commercial house of nearly 100 square meters, 460 yuan per square meter, 45,000 yuan.
Then continue to be a tufuzi until the partner hangs up.
House, car, tickets, son...
Zhang Nan in this car thought about it, and when he thought of the son he had never met, his head began to get bigger.
"Ye Ming, your sister has been doing this recently..."
I didn't go on, and I didn't know what to say.
The brother-in-law in the passenger seat smiled wryly, this expression...
Brother-in-law, you can ask for more blessings for yourself!
Zhang Nan doesn't know how to play mahjong, but this time he also plans to go back and forth, ready to be criticized.
After the car entered the urban area of the capital, the number of cars on the street was obviously a lot more, and of course, the familiar army of bicycles was still as large as ever.
There are a lot more construction sites in Beijing, many places are being demolished, and the big word "demolition" on the roadside wall is particularly conspicuous.
Soon arrived in front of his own Baylor Mansion, how did Zhang Nan, who got off the car, feel a little weak in his heart!
