182 Jade Dragon
For Zhou Wenqiang, what happened at the Taixing casino can only be regarded as a small episode at best.
In his eyes, even if the gaming industry has a special status in Australia, it is still too biased and too low! Don't look at Fu Laorong's big business, known as the 'King of Aocheng', and even not as cultural as Wang Laoji's flower stall.
Compared with any casino, racetrack, and the future Mark Six lottery, Wang Laoji's word flower stall is simply the 'intangible cultural heritage' of the gaming industry, which is a combination of lantern riddles, history and culture in one of the gambling methods, but even this kind of gambling business he does not look up to, let alone others.
After solving a promise to his master Long Si, Zhou Wenqiang asked Hongsen to arrange Long Si and Cen Xiaojin in a high-end residential area in Aocheng, which was also the fate of master and apprentice, and then waited for the fleet to come to Australia and hand over this batch of embargoed goods to Nanguang Company, even if it was completed.
That's the big deal.
I don't know what the reason is, the uneasiness in Zhou Wenqiang's heart is getting stronger and stronger, and he always feels that this delivery will not go too smoothly.
"Wen Qiang, this line should be safe, although there are also a few groups of 'sea seals' on the sea route, but I have done all of them. Most of them are fishermen from several islands, who usually rely on the weather for fishing and food, but when the sea is blocked by continuous hurricanes, they will not be able to live anymore, so they will venture out to sea to plunder the passing merchant ships. ”
"But even if we encounter these 'sea seals' who are half-fishermen and half-thieves, with our escort armament, there will definitely be no problems."
Standing on the Aogang wharf, Lei Yingdong looked to the east, comforting Zhou Wenqiang in his mouth, but in fact, his face was also worried.
These days, the sea route from Hong Kong Island to Macao City is calm, and there is no need to worry about the fleet encountering strong winds and waves, but the timing is not right.
In order to arrange the handover with Nam Kwong Company, he and Zhou Wenqiang came to Macao two days in advance, and it is now noon on the third day.
The fleet was scheduled to depart from Victoria Harbour at 8 a.m. today, and although it was necessary to make a detour to the high seas in order to circumvent the Hong Kong Island Marine Police, it would have taken up to two hours to reach the Macau Port Pier, but now it has exceeded the time by more than an hour.
Lei Yingdong is a person who begs for a living on the water all year round, and judging from his experience, the fleet must have encountered some obstacles.
"Here they are......"
Zhou Wenqiang's eyes condensed slightly: "There is one less cargo ship!" ”
Is the sun in the middle of the day? A line of ship shadows gradually appeared on the sea level in the east? After ten minutes, you can already see the company logo on board? It belongs to 'Shenzhou Company' and 'Dongfang Shipping'.
Ten speedboats are there? But as Zhou Wenqiang said, the most important cargo ship is missing.
"Let's go!"
Lei Yingdong's face turned blue? and Zhou Wenqiang and He Hongsen hurriedly walked to the dock.
Zhou Wenqiang also had a straight face, and the murderous aura appeared in his eyes.
On the sea route of Hong Kong and Macau? Someone dared to keep his Zhou Wenqiang's goods?
Before, his smuggling fleet attacked Malacca? The goods cover most of Southeast Asia, and there has never been such a thing, and now it is unreasonable to capsize in the 'gutter'.
The fleet is also approaching the dock at this time? The weapons on the speedboat have long been hidden below deck? However, you can still see dense bullet marks on the hull, some of which are left by heavy firearms.
Lei Yingdong greeted the workers of 'Taixing' with a calm face to unload the goods immediately, turned to He Hongsen and said, "Brother Hongsen, you are staring here." Wen Qiang, let's get on the boat? I, Lei Yingdong, want to see who dares to touch my goods in this sea area! ”
Early fifties? Hongmen is still there!
The disciples of Hongmen are known as planting flags from all over the world and helping each other.
These 'sea dogs' dare to rob Lei Zuoxiang's goods? That's impatience!
Zhou Wenqiang sneered: "Brother Lei, I'm afraid this matter is not so simple?" I'm afraid it's not something that ordinary 'sea dogs' can do. I think? Is it mostly because of these embargoed goods? It attracted the attention of 'certain forces'. ”
The two jumped on the largest pilot speedboat, and saw Jin Shan looking for a dusty face and a thick bandage on his right arm in the wheelhouse.
"Boss, me! If it weren't for the ammunition running out, Lao Tzu would have fought with them! ”
Jin Shan looked for two blood-red eyes, like a madman, and was stopped by two brothers from Beiwang so that he didn't run away on the spot: "A whole shipload of goods, and more than 20 of our brothers were injured, and five people were broken!" These 'sea seals' are damned, let Lao Tzu catch them and light them sky lanterns! ”
"Calm down!"
Zhou Wenqiang pressed on the shoulder of Jinshan: "What is the origin of the other party?" How many ships are there and what is the firepower? Speaking slowly, revenge must be avenged, there is no need to rush for a while! ”
"Boss, the other party has all the boats, there are ordinary fishing boats, hidden weapons, and I caught the brothers off guard!"
"There are also four or five ironclad ships, bigger than our speedboats, and there are naval guns on them! This thing is more accurate than the mortars we set up on the deck, and if it weren't for our speedboats, we would have sunk a few of them! ”
Jin Shan shouted: "I look like a gunboat of the Marine Police, but the firepower is more fierce and the ship is bigger!" Damn, it's like a regular navy! ”
"Regular navy, gunboats?"
Lei Yingdong's face sank, that's right.
It is impossible for the 'sea seals' who are active in this sea area not to have heard of the names of him and Zhou Wenqiang, and robbed their goods for no reason.
Unless it is a more powerful force, it is not afraid to provoke them.
After thinking about it, he asked: "Jin Shan is looking for a brother, where did the fleet encounter the other party?" ”
Jin Shan thought for a while and said, "It's near the Wanshan Islands." ”
"That's right, the Wanshan Islands are not far from Taiwan Island, and if there is a regular navy involved, it is very likely that Taiwan Island will take action."
Lei Yingdong sneered: "I can't imagine that in order to prevent us from transporting these sought-after goods to the mainland, the Taiwan Island Navy even didn't have a face and pretended to be a 'sea dog'!" ”
"Wen Qiang, if it is the Taiwan Navy, we can only lose one cargo ship, which is already a great luck in misfortune, and it is not easy to find this field."
It's not that Lei Yingdong has boosted the morale of others, but he relies on strong ships and guns at sea, and no matter how strong Shenzhou and Xiangdong Company are, they can't match the regular Taiwan Navy, which is not the same level at all.
"This Taiwan Navy should have only recently visited the Wanshan Islands, and how could there be fishing boats in their formation?"
Zhou Wenqiang thought for a while and said, "Jinshan is looking for, are there any signs for those fishing boats?" ”
"Boss, what you are asking, since it is a fishing boat, how can there be ......?"
Jin Shanxuan was stunned for a moment, and slapped his head suddenly: "I remember, there is a largest and tallest fishing boat, and the hull is covered with iron sheets, as if there is a flag, um...... It was a black flag with a little white snake or earthworm or something......"
"Black flag, white snake?"
Lei Yingdong's face changed: "That's not a snake, it's not an earthworm, it's a jade dragon." ”
"It's her, Jade Jiaolong, Huang Man!"
