Chapter 169 People are not rich without foreign wealth
"Maybe it's easier to catch fish by diving at sea in a dinghy. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Soon, Mo Ye thought of a way.
His super biological detector can search for fish, and if he drives a dinghy to search for fish, he will go into the water to catch them if he finds them, which is both efficient and numerous.
"I heard that the fishery resources in the waters of Timor-Leste are also very good, so I must stay nearby for a while this time." Mo Ye quickly made a decision, this time he entered the ocean, naturally trying to find a little more harvest.
"Huh? That's a shipwreck, right? After swimming for a short time, Mo Ye scanned the freighter that sank to the bottom of the sea.
This is a container ship, with a length of more than 160 meters, a width of 25 meters, and a height of more than 13 meters.
After checking the depth of the water, this place is only more than forty meters deep, and now there is a twenty-five-meter big guy lying sideways here, and a slightly larger cargo ship cannot pass through here.
Mo Ye scanned the cargo on the ship, there were more than 700 containers on it, such a cargo ship should be more than 10,000 tons.
It seems that it was because there was too much cargo piled up, and after entering this reef area, it hit the reef and flipped on its side.
Of course, it is also likely that the wind and waves were too strong at that time, so the behemoth will turn on its side.
After scanning the surroundings and avoiding a few divers, Mo Xie secretly collected all the containers scattered around him into the space.
"Huh? That's too heavy, right? Putting away dozens of containers, Mo Xie found that these containers were stuffed with copper ingots, so the weight was too great.
Finding the anomaly, Mo Xie scanned some more containers and found that the containers were all stuffed with copper ingots, but there were too many copper ingots in these containers.
These containers are all 20-foot standard containers, that is, the outer dimensions are 6.1m×2.44m×2.59m, and the internal volume is 5.69m× 2.13m×2.18m.
This kind of container is almost all used to carry heavy cargo, but the gross weight of the container is generally not allowed to exceed 17.5 tons, and the volume of cargo that can accommodate is about 24-26 cubic meters.
The specific gravity of copper is 8,900 kilograms per cubic meter, so that more than 20 cubic meters can hold 180 tons.
After scanning the copper ingots in the container, the purity is indeed very high, and the price of such electrolytic copper is very high, generally exceeding 43,000 yuan per ton.
"The copper ingots in a box are worth more than eight million yuan!" After calculating the price, Mo Ye was a little staggered.
Even in dollar terms, the price of copper ingots in a container is more than a million dollars, and how much is here?
Now Mo Xie had already put away dozens of containers containing copper ingots, and as for what was in the other containers, Mo Xie hadn't had time to check yet.
However, Mo Xie judged that the containers here would definitely not all be filled with copper ingots, because that would be too heavy.
Even if it is a real 10,000-ton ship, it is impossible to load tens of thousands of tons of cargo, which is talking about displacement, which is the weight calculated together with the hull.
"Those people are in a hurry to salvage these containers, there must be nothing good."
Mo Ye looked at the divers on the bottom of the sea, picking and choosing among some containers, and knew that these guys were selective in salvaging containers.
The containers with a large number of copper ingots, they did not move, but lifted some very light containers, which is strange if there is no cat in it.
"Is it smuggling?" Mo Xie calculated the container in his hand, and in the forty-five boxes, there were more than 8,000 tons of copper ingots, and the other containers must have been filled with other things.
In the interval between the divers' afloat, Mo Ye came to the vicinity of the container where they were working, and sure enough, it was not a copper ingot, but a cigarette.
"Haha, there will be no loss if the copper ingot sinks to the bottom of the sea, if it is a cigarette, it will not work, fortunately, these people are experienced and packed well enough, otherwise these cigarettes will be useless if they are salvaged." Mo Xie collected the containers while checking what was inside these containers.
Mo Ye was afraid that another diver would come down, so the speed was very fast, and it only took him ten minutes to put away more than five hundred containers, all of which were cigarettes.
After a little calculation, Mo Xie found that this batch of cigarettes exceeded 1,000 tons, and because it was by sea, it was very well packaged, even if it sank to the bottom of the sea, it did not enter the water.
After harvesting so many things, Mo Xie didn't want to continue to go deeper into the container ship to check, so he picked a direction with a complicated environment and dived away.
When he returned to the boat, he saw Zhou Hongbo and the others who were in a hurry, Mo Ye smiled and said, "Wait!" Don't be in a hurry, soon we will be able to pass. ”
"What's wrong? Those people don't salvage containers anymore? Wang Yihe asked.
"So many containers, they have time to salvage? I think they'll be running away soon. Mo Xie said about the situation under the water.
The container was filled with large quantities of copper ingots and cigarettes, which would be strange if this was a normal business practice.
"I heard that Australian cigarettes are expensive." Wang Yihe said.
"Expensive? How expensive is it? Mo Xie asked curiously.
"It's basically a cigarette for one dollar! Equivalent to five yuan a piece, most Australian cigarettes are still 25 a box, calculate the price yourself! Wang Yihe said with a smile.
"More than a hundred of each?" Mo Ye said in surprise.
"It may be cheaper in China, but even if it is one-third of the price, a pack will cost more than 50 yuan." Zhou Hongbo said.
"I've heard that the smuggling has been very good in Australia recently." At this time, Mu Ne spoke.
"You've heard? So, you go to sea a lot? Zhou Hongbo said with a smile.
Mu Ne said: "If you haven't been out of the island, how can you speak English?" ”
"Tell me, smuggling cigarettes in Australia is very profitable?" Mo Xie asked.
Mo Xie now has more than a thousand tons of cigarettes in his hands, and if the price is very expensive, then he will make a lot of money this time.
"Of course it's expensive, I heard that the Australian police recently seized a batch of cigarettes, worth more than 40 million Australian dollars." Murne.
"More than $40 million? That's not more than 200 million yuan? That's about $30 million! Mo Ye's eyes lit up a little, and he felt that he had really made a lot of money.
"How many cigarettes are worth $40 million?" Zhou Hongbo asked.
"I heard that there are more than 70 tons." Murne.
"More than seventy tons?" Hearing this, Mo Xie laughed.
Seventy tons of cigarettes is 40 million Australian dollars, how much is 1,000 tons? Almost 600 million Australian dollars, how many yuan is that? Sure enough, people have no foreign wealth and are not rich!
"Cigarettes are worth so much money in the hands of the Australian government, and who are we selling them to? Besides, we can't get cigarettes into Australia even if we have them, and these smugglers earn tax evasion.
I heard that if the 70 tons of cigarettes entered Australia through regular channels, the Australian government would be able to receive 27 million Australian dollars in taxes, and if they were smuggled in, the money would be made by the smuggling gang. Mu Ne said.
Talking about Australian cigarettes here, Mo Xie did not forget to observe the cargo ships opposite, and sure enough, when another group of divers entered the water, they immediately found that their containers had all disappeared.
This time they came up quickly, and when the situation was explained, there was a certain panic on the cargo ship.
However, the panic soon subsided, and another group of people went into the water, but they surfaced in less than ten minutes.
Obviously, these people have determined that all the underwater containers are missing, and anyone who encounters such a strange situation will be afraid.
But they can't help it, even if they want to break their heads, they can't think that it is Mo Xie's ghost.
I don't understand, the goods below have disappeared again, and the owners of the goods naturally don't dare to stay here, after all, what they are doing is not visible.
Watching the freighters set sail and leave, Mo Xie laughed, who made these guys want to let him work for nothing?
Now you know it's amazing, right?
Having lost 8,000 tons of copper ingots and more than 1,000 tons of cigarettes, this company must have suffered heavy losses.
These goods fell into the hands of Mo Ye, and they would definitely not be sold at the original price, but even if they were sold for half of their value, they would be a huge fortune.
The fishing boat started again, this time with a smooth sail and it took a few hours to reach the port of Dili.
Seeing Dili Port, Mo Xie had to plan his next trip, originally he planned to put down the gold in Dili Port and return to China, but at this time, he didn't have this kind of idea.
The cigarettes in your hands need to be disposed of, the surrounding offshore fishery resources need to be fished, and if you are lucky, you may be able to upgrade the super biodetector to level 3 here.
Of course, Mo Xie didn't want to get into the fishing net to collect the fish by himself, instead of this, it was better to salvage it and sell it, and use the money to buy food!
Therefore, if Mo Xie wants to go out to sea to fish, he will not let the super biological detector directly absorb it.
Along the way, Mo Xie found a lot of fish, but the oxygen in his hands was consumed too much, and he was afraid that Zhou Hongbo and others would be suspicious, so Mo Ye never went into the water after that.
When he came to the port of Dili, he could go to sea in a speedboat by himself, and when he went to sea alone, he could do whatever he wanted.
"Maybe it's a good trip to Australia, I heard that they have more resources there." Mo Ye looked at Dili Port, which was getting closer and closer, not far from Australia.
Australia is a big grain exporter, and it is difficult to buy large quantities of food at home, but it is easy in Australia.
Of course, Australia not only has food, but also has a well-developed fishery and mining industry, and the words "vast land" and "vast land" and sparsely populated land are quite appropriate to describe Australia.
The country, which ranks sixth in the world in terms of land area, has just crossed the 23 million mark, which is just the size of a large domestic city.
Before the sale of iron ore in large quantities, Australia was known as a "country on the back of a sheep", and animal husbandry has always been its strength.
With the development of agricultural technology and the development of drought-resistant and water-saving food crop varieties, Australian agriculture has also sprung up and become a major food producer and exporter, with enough grain production to supply 60 million people.
