Chapter 163: The Mystery of the Century
"Stop! Get checked! ”
The speedboat came from the sea through the waves, and several American soldiers in camouflage uniforms, armed with weapons, began to board the ship.
The dozen or so crew members on the ship were a little flustered at first, but soon they all pretended to be innocent.
By extending the rope ladder, the two American soldiers climbed to the deck in three or two clicks.
"Documents!"
One of the American soldiers wearing sunglasses, speaking some rough English, looked at the people on board.
He asked for the paperwork to be checked, and everything seemed to be in order.
"Sir, we are absolutely legitimate!"
The middle-aged man in the lead was the captain, who was dark-skinned and took out his island passport, with his name "Fujiwara Keiji" written on it.
The captain told them that the final destination of the ship was Stay Bay.
Another American soldier, using an iron pin tool he carried, skillfully pried open a wooden box.
Inside, a black-and-red wine bottle was revealed.
Under the sunlight, it is red and red, making people look salivating.
He licked the corners of his mouth and whispered into his companion's ear, "It's all red wine, and it's produced in a place called Yamanashi Prefecture." ”
The American soldier's expression remained unchanged, and he returned the documents to the captain, and said, "We need to check further to see if you are carrying prohibited items." ”
"Okay, sir, you can check these wines after direct sunlight, which will affect the taste, and we will not be able to sell them again."
"If you don't mind, can you take it for us?"
The captain looked at their earthy gray camouflage uniforms, and instantly reacted, this was obviously not a customs officer, not even a navy, it should be an army soldier stationed on Okinawa Island.
I heard that they often drive speedboats, under the pretext of routine inspections, intercept cargo ships along the way, and ask for benefits.
The hard currency among them is wine.
The two American soldiers glanced at each other and saw a hint of joy in each other's eyes.
One of them coughed and said with a solemn expression: "This is not very good, after these wines are sealed, they should still be sold..."
Before he could finish speaking, the captain gave the two crew members next to him a look.
In the dark red container compartment, three intact wooden boxes were moved out one after another, containing about forty bottles of wine.
"OK, I've checked, your ship, there's no problem."
The two American soldiers looked at the unopened wooden box and were happy, but they still finished the process with a calm face.
They walked to the side of the boat, grabbed the rope ladder, and jumped back onto the speedboat.
Followed by.
Several crew members also quickly used ropes to lower the three wooden boxes.
"Have a great trip!"
Several American soldiers did not expect this "inspection" to be so rich.
Before leaving, they greeted everyone on the boat with great joy.
Looking at their speedboat in the distance, everyone's high hearts finally fell.
"Silly dog."
A young man laughed and scolded.
Sure enough, the most dangerous place is the safest place.
In the waters on this side of Okinawa, because of the presence of US troops, the customs of the island country seem to have deliberately avoided this place, and no one came to inspect it at all.
Such a small episode is not new to everyone on board.
Later, they encountered "two waves of inspectors", both of whom were sent by similar means.
The steamer was moving at full speed at sea without danger, and in half a day, they were about to enter the waters of the East China Sea.
When the time comes, all the people who check them are their own people.
If nothing else, they will only need another three days to successfully return to Yantian Port.
End this thrilling trip.
Meanwhile.
Island country, Shimane Prefecture.
A group of salesmen with briefcases and suits and leather shoes stood at the door of the Larsen Machinery Factory, looking at the locked gate of the factory, with helpless and complicated expressions.
They all came to the owner of the factory to negotiate procurement.
Recently, many peers told them that this machinery factory is being rebuilt and needs to purchase a lot of equipment, so they can come here to try it.
Therefore, there are quite a few people who aim at this "fat meat".
However, the gates of this factory are always closed, and the security guards do not know where to run.
Everyone gathered together and talked about it.
This is the third day they've been here, but the silver chains on them haven't even moved, as they were yesterday.
Finally, someone couldn't hold it back, so they found a few stones to put together, stepped on the stones, climbed over the fence, and entered the factory area.
However, they were soon surprised to find that a huge factory area was empty!
Someone walked to the door of a factory building, and through the gap between the two doors, he found that it was also empty, there was nothing but some weeds.
The sight amazed everyone!
Isn't this plant being rebuilt?
Some time ago, they also ordered a lot of equipment, and at most, the playground in front of them was piled up!
However.
Now they've searched the entire factory and can't find a single mechanical tool!
Could it be that the equipment of the factory was stolen?!
Soon, the news was reported to the local police station.
When the police officers received this report, they thought they were joking, the scale of the Larsen Machinery Factory is so large, there are at least hundreds of various machinery and equipment.
Who can steal their equipment?
Even if you put it there and let someone else move it, it will take more than half a day!
However, the person on the other end of the phone swore that they couldn't help but pay no attention to it.
Several police cars slowly stopped at the gate of the Larsen Machinery Factory, which had long been surrounded by water.
Someone brought a chainsaw and sawed the chains on the factory gate.
The two doors creaked open.
What catches your eye is a deserted factory area, with nothing but scattered weeds and shallow truck tire imprints, proving that there was once human activity.
A cold wind blew, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.
They searched the entire factory and did not find a single person, not even a single scrap of iron!
What about that smiling LeBron boss, that American billionaire?!
The police officers did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately reported the matter layer by layer.
In less than an hour, the public security department of the island country received this shocking news!
Hundreds of precision machinery and equipment have disappeared!
And the American boss of this factory, and his assistants, seem to have evaporated from the world, and they can't even find the exit record!
The news couldn't be concealed at all, and it soon spread all over the island country!
And caused an uproar!
Even the United States of America has made several phone calls in a row to inquire, and the tone is fierce!
They said the island nation must crack the eucalyptus and recover all the stolen equipment within three days!
Otherwise, they will reconsider the relationship between the two countries.
Because most of these equipment are banned from export by the Paris Coordinating Committee, if they go to third world countries, it will have a significant impact on the world economy!
The monopoly that they have blocked for many years will be likely to be broken!
