Chapter 225, Smuggling of Goods

Don't look at Ah Hu's hands holding a few mines, and there are family members who are bandits on them, but the food, clothing, housing and transportation are very simple, and even the drinking place is a small workshop.

"I'm sorry, it's a little shabby, but it's a mine after all. ”

Luo Tian waved his hand and said, "It's okay." ”

"Where are you going to sell all that iron ore in?" Ah Hu asked.

"Weiguo. "Luo Bi didn't hide it, most of the situation of the running business will develop a continuous business chain, which includes both purchase and shipment, Ah Hu and Luo Bi are old relationships, and they are not afraid that Ah Hu will pry away the business.

"Weiguo, where is this batch of iron ore sent? "It sounds like Ah Hu has some knowledge of Weiguo.

"What's wrong?" Luo Bi asked.

"Recently, I heard a rumor that I don't know whether it is true or not, but it has a relationship with Weiguo, it is said that Weiguo has recently entered iron ore through various channels, and I have a few familiar peers who are said to have received bulk orders from Weiguo, I calculated, before and after Weiguo has bought thousands of tons of iron ore. ”

"So much, how much equipment is this going to build?" Luo Bi said in surprise, it was not clear if he didn't understand, and this understanding was also shocked.

"Also, I've heard that these thousands of tons of ore aren't all used to build equipment. Ah Hu paused for a moment and said, " I heard that Wei Guo and the neighbors had a very stiff quarrel a while ago, because they found some ancient ruins of the old era at the junction of the two countries, and found a mechanical design of the old era in one of the ancient ruins, this mechanical design seems to be some kind of powerful old era weapon, but to build such a weapon requires a lot of iron ore, the neighboring countries are afraid that Wei Guo will make a big killing weapon and it will be unfavorable to them, so they have adopted trade control measures, and Wei Guo has sought other ways to import iron ore. ”

"Really, wouldn't it be dangerous for us to transport iron ore this time?" Luo Tian asked.

"It is possible that I heard that the neighboring countries of Weiguo have sent many people to sabotage some of Weiguo's official trade routes, and several of my peers have been affected, and the goods of one of the convoys have been robbed. ”

"Then we'll have to be careful this time. ”

At least he heard some warnings from Ah Hu, but Luo Bi was still full of confidence in this shipment.

The convoy was loaded on the road in a few days, and according to the itinerary, it would take nearly ten days to get to Weiguo, which is very close to the entire continent.

The team leader is an experienced man in his fifties who likes to talk about how good he has been and how many legendary events he has experienced while smoking a cigarette.

"Do you know, thirty years ago, I was a hairy boy about the same age as you, at that time I was a fledgling but a guts, once in charge of a large cargo transportation, but we encountered a tide of wild beasts, we were frightened, the leader of the convoy said that we would die here, I took the lead, used the flames to drive away the approaching beasts, and kept the cargo for a whole night, and since then I have been the leader of the entire convoy, and I have been doing it for thirty years. ”

Some of the beasts are afraid of fire, especially the nocturnal beasts.

But he was still exaggerating when he said this, and Luo Tian smiled and didn't debunk it.

"I'm going to change the customs clearance document in front, and after that pass, I will walk for two days to Weiguo. The team leader said smoking a cigarette.

Looking back, the convoy is like a long dragon, and the transportation is a special puppet cow, this kind of puppet cow has a huge pulling force, and after all, it is just a puppet that does not need to eat and drink, as long as it ensures that the internal spirit stone energy is abundant, it can always move, a spirit stone can go on for half a month, and each puppet cow can pull five tons of goods, there are a total of twenty puppet cows here.

There are a total of fifteen people in the team, including the team leader and the manager, and they take care of the finishing touches, for fear that someone will steal things along the way.

"Where are you going?" asked the guard guarding the door.

Because this is a neighbor of Weiguo, everyone confessed in advance, saying that these goods were passing through the two countries and did not stop, and in order not to arouse suspicion, Luo Bi also specially prepared a few trucks of potatoes to deal with the inspection, and the customs clearance document did not indicate that it would go to Weiguo.

"We are transporting potatoes through your country. Luo Bi said with a smile.

"Potatoes, so many? 20 carts, a few of you go over and see if it's a potato." ”

At the beckoning, several guards walked over and lifted the black cloth covering the two cars in front of them, and placed the potatoes prepared by Luo Bi underneath.

"A few people have worked hard, this is a small meaning, the weather is getting cold, everyone buy some wine to drink. Luo Bi stuffed a small red envelope over.

The guard took it and smiled, "It's a potato, let it go." ”

The city gate slowly opened, and Luo Bi covered the black cloth and let the convoy slowly enter the city.

After more than 20 cars entered the city, the city gate was closed, and suddenly a beacon fire was lit on the wall, and then countless soldiers surrounded him from all directions, Luo Bi and the team leader's faces changed, and Luo Tian looked around coldly.

"What's going on?" Luo Bi asked loudly.

A general who looked like a captain came out of the soldiers defending the city, and said: "According to the laws of our kingdom, you have illegally transported goods and concealed the contents of your declaration, and now your goods will be confiscated and you people will be taken into custody. ”

"What!" Luo Bi was shocked, "It's also illegal for us to transport potatoes?"

"Hehe, is it really a potato?" the other man walked over, then walked to the center of the convoy, and jerked the black cloth open, peeling off the top layer of potatoes to reveal the iron ore underneath.

"It's the first time I've heard that you need to use puppet oxen to transport potatoes, and I'm afraid I won't be able to pay the shipping costs if I sell all the potatoes here. ”

Luo Tian deliberately rushed out, but Luo Bi's neck was already with a sword, Luo Tian simply raised his hand and did not resist, and soon a group of them were imprisoned in the dungeon of the border guards.

"I said Luo Dashang, are you considered to die before you get out of the school, and you still have four thousand taels of silver, I think this time it is a blood loss. Luo Tian shouted at Luo Bi, who was locked up next door.

"Boss, I didn't expect them to find out, but it doesn't matter, I still have friends outside, and I should find a way to get us out. ”

"Oh, you really have someone to send you paper wherever you. ”

Luo Bi's friend was an official in the country, and he had a little power in his hands, so he tossed for several days before he brought Luo Tian and them out.

"What about my goods, can you get them back?"

"Don't think about the goods, it's not easy to get you out alive, I've prepared a carriage for you, leave as soon as possible." The other party shook his head.

If the goods can't be recovered, not only will the money paid to buy iron ore and the high transportation costs be lost, but also a large amount of liquidated damages will be paid to Weiguo.

"No, we have to find a way to take it out, do you know where they put the iron ore after seizing it?"

"I heard that it is in the yard outside the city, and it will be transported away tomorrow, what do you want to do, it is more than 20 trucks of iron ore, how did you steal it?"

Luo Bi waved his hand and said, "We will handle the rest of the matter ourselves, thank you brother for helping us out." ”

"I can warn you not to come nonsense, our country's laws and regulations are very strict, if you know the law and break the law, it will be a crime of one more degree, and I will not be able to save you at that time. ”

After sending off his friend, Luo Bi looked at Luo Tian and said, "Boss, I have a way, but I need your help." ”

The iron ore that was stopped when they entered the city was not only Luo Tian and his family, but also a batch of goods seized before, a total of nearly 30 trucks, which were escorted by a squadron to the smelter 30 miles away from here.

After they knocked out a group of soldiers, they asked the convoy and themselves to change into soldiers' clothes and set off with the squadron.

"What the hell is the plan?" asked the team leader.

"My boss has a stunt to control other people's minds, when the time comes, we will follow this squadron all the way, and after leaving the monitoring range of the border town, let my boss take down the squadron leader, and then forcibly change the direction of the convoy, bypass the border and enter the border from the city on the other side, and find a way to set off from there to Weiguo, I calculated, although our time is urgent, but by the time they find us, we should have reached the border of Weiguo. ”

Luo Bi's brain turned fast, and what he wanted to use was the method of Luo Tiannu seal.

The squadron leader was on his horse, Luo Tian slowly approached, and heard the squadron leader shouting: "All cheer up, wait until the smelter unloads, and everyone will rest." ”

At this moment, Luo Tian raised his head to look at the squadron leader, and then slowly stretched out his hand, and the severed limb was imprinted on his body.
