Hong Kong Island: From a small stall to a global supplier

Chapter 223 Learning from the Strengths of Other Thieves
The man in the black hood was also stunned. He never expected that the mastermind behind the scenes could say such shameless words.

Which kind person would kidnap someone in the middle of the night and throw him into the dark sea to interrogate him secretly?

If you are not a bad person, then I am a bad person.

Of course, this kind of words just swirled in my mind, "Brother, if you ask, I will tell you everything I know."

“How long does it take for a bulk carrier to travel from Tokyo, Japan to Kuching?”

The man in the black hood raised his head. He didn't expect to be asked this kind of question. He thought for a moment and replied, "It's hard to say."

When Ajie heard this guy trying to shirk responsibility, he pressed the electric baton and rushed over without saying a word, "How dare you hesitate when I ask you a question!"

"Stop!" Wang Yaotang hurriedly shouted to stop, but it was too late.

"Fuck-"

"Uh--"

Wang Yaotang slowly lowered his outstretched hand, looked at the fat man twitching on the ground, and sighed, "He meant something that is difficult to express here."

"Ah? Really?" Ajie scratched his head.

"It's okay. If there is something wrong, correct it. If there is nothing wrong, try harder." Aji said in a deep voice.

In a word, the vibration amplitude of the black hood has become smaller.

"I mean..." The black hooded man gasped, causing the outer hood to rise and fall, "Why does the ship go from Tokyo to Kuching?"

"Send some equipment over." Wang Yaotang said.

“Then it should be sent to Singapore. There is no Kuching among the major ports in Malaysia. Unless the entire ship’s cargo is delivered to Kuching, the probability of going to Johor Port is higher than Kuching.”

Wang Yaotang and his companions looked at each other, something bad happened!

The information given by Ti Gu Dong was to go to Kuching, but the ship captain who has been in the freight business for many years said it was wrong. Who was wrong?
It is very likely that the boning director was wrong... I guess the person who ordered the equipment is in Kuching. After all, the fishing industry is more developed there, but the goods were definitely not delivered directly there.

This is a problem of lack of experience. I should find the freight company to find out the specific route the ship takes, when it is expected to arrive, and which port it will arrive at. Now I am at a loss!
“Generally speaking, where do 3000-ton bulk carriers from Tokyo go?”

"This..." The man in the black hood had a buzzing head.

If an amateur asked such a question on a normal day, he would slap the person in the face.

Now, he just wanted to give himself a big slap in the face.

“You mean, you want the goods delivered from Tokyo to Kuching?”

Wang Yaotang opened his mouth and said, "I'm not sure either."

Black hood: “…”

"It's not good for you to know too much." Wang Yaotang said in a faint voice, "I'm actually a good person. I don't like to do things to the extreme."

"Then...if I can't answer...can you let me go?" The man in the black hood wanted to cry but had no tears.

The cabin was silent...

The man in the black hood suddenly started crying. The sound made anyone who heard it sad and anyone who saw it shed tears.

Wang Yaotang and others looked at each other... Look how much they've forced the other person.

It’s all because of Gut-Tsui Dong!

"It's a device that's installed on fishing boats." Wang Yaotang sighed, "You can guess the rest."

Hearing this, Black Hood stopped crying and thought for a long time. It was for ship use and ordered from Japan. If someone could target it, the equipment must be expensive. It must be an ocean-going fishing vessel...

“The installation may not be done in Kuching. The shipbuilding industry in Malaysia is very poor and even simple maintenance is difficult. It is likely that the ship will be modified in Singapore.”

"Plus, Singapore itself is the largest port in Southeast Asia. I estimate that the most likely scenario is that the ship will go directly to Singapore."

Wang Yaotang looked up and sighed heavily. The pirate profession still has a long way to go.

“Is there a fixed route to Singapore?”

"Have."

"explain."

"Uh... this is best to draw. Also... this waterway is very busy, with many ships. Which one, which one..."

"Stop hesitating. Say what you want to say quickly." Ajie shouted.

"If you were a captain, how would you determine whether the person you encountered was a pirate?" Wang Yaotang asked in a deep voice.

The man in the black hood suddenly raised his head: You still say you are a good person!

He lowered his head, thought for a moment and said, "On the sea, we should not allow any ship to approach or have the opportunity to board our ship easily."

"Have you ever seen a pirate?"

"I've seen it."

"How did the other party rob you?"

"Drive the fishing boat closer and get your guns."

"and then?"

"We were also forced back with guns."

"that's it?"

"that's all!"

"What if they have more powerful firepower, like rocket launchers, artillery, etc.?" "Then stop the ship."

"why?"

"Regulation."

"What?" Wang Yaotang was very surprised. There is such a weird rule?

"If the ship is not stopped, it is more likely to be attacked by pirates with heavy firepower. Accidents in the power system or fuel tanks will cause the ship to drift in a dangerous state. Even worse, it will cause a fire, causing the ship to capsize and sink. Therefore, a rule has been formed for a long time that in the event of force majeure, the ship must be stopped and wait for subsequent arrangements by maritime security, insurance and rescue agencies."

"Comparatively, the damage caused by the destruction of the ship may be greater, and pirates do not kill people."

"That's right, legitimate pirates never kill people!" Black Hood emphasized, "Once they kill someone, it will bring very bad consequences."

"What consequences?" Ajie sneered.

"Negotiations are not going smoothly, and it is difficult for both parties to gain trust. Even if the deal is reached, the shipping company is likely to hire mercenaries to kill the other party as a deterrent."

Ajie shut up instantly and looked at Wang Yaotang in surprise.

Wang Yaotang nodded. He knew that in the 98 Changsheng incident, 10 crew members were killed and finally all 25 members of the pirate gang were arrested, including those who were overseas.

"Tell me your name, address, and family members."

The black hood shook his head desperately.

"How can I feel at ease if you don't tell me? If I'm not at ease, how can you live? I'm doing this for your own good." Wang Yaotang said earnestly.

The black hood gnashed his teeth and said, thank you fucking much!

"Don't worry, your family doesn't know anything. As long as you keep your mouth shut, you will all be safe. By the way, don't lie to me. I will arrange for someone to verify it right now. How can I let you go if I don't verify it clearly?"

Finally, Wang Yaotang persuaded him, "My name is Yang Xiangyu."

"Okay, in a minute, you can take off your mask. I've prepared paper and pen for you. Draw or write the route he will take, whatever you want. Make it clearer. Then design two, no, three pirate robbery plans. Write them carefully and make them reasonable with a high enough chance of success."

Yang Xiangyu raised his head. Although he couldn't see anything, his face was full of disbelief. I planned to rob myself?
"Why, you don't want to? Are you ready to sacrifice yourself for a just cause?"

"No...no, I'll write it."

"Oh, that's right. A man of insight is a wise man. Okay, you can take it off in a minute." Wang Yaotang smiled, patted his shoulder, stood up and walked out.

Walking out of the cabin, Ajie gave a thumbs up, "Big brother is big brother, so bad!"

"Get lost!" Wang Yaotang cursed with a smile, "Go, next one."

This time we captured three people, two captains and a first mate. It doesn’t matter that I am not familiar with the pirate profession, I can gather wisdom and learn from the strengths of all the pirates!

An hour later, three people wearing hoods were pushed into the water. After struggling for a few times, they immediately took off their hoods and looked around. When they saw the neon lights not far away, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

nice guy!

thank you!
The three of them swam quickly to the shore, sat on the ground, and gasped for breath. They truly escaped death!

Thinking about what happened tonight, my heart started pounding.

I just went there for a drink, but how come I got kidnapped?

Alcohol and sex will lead to bad consequences!
From now on, quit drinking!
……

On the other side, on the boat, Wang Yaotang was concentrating on the three pieces of paper in his hand.

It takes 12-15 days to get from JD.com to Singapore, so he must hurry. It is his first time playing for the country and he must not make any mistakes.

Ajie and Aji came up to Wang Yaotang and also watched.

After a while, Ajie said, "According to Yang, it is best for us to wait outside the island of Danshenbinlang on the west side of Lion City. This place is at the mouth of the sea and is the only way to go."

Aji nodded, "Brother Yao, what do you think?"

"No." Wang Yaotang shook his head. "Originally, I was thinking of robbing this ship, but now I have changed my mind. The water here is too deep!"

"How to say?"

"Rules. They all said that shipping companies have a set of standard rules for dealing with pirates. Any industry, as long as there are rules, means there is a complete industrial chain, and many related organizations make a living in this industrial chain." Wang Yaotang frowned, "Just like our club, if a group of people rashly come to Tsim Sha Tsui to plant a flag and steal business, what will you do?"

"He must be killed!"

"Yes, the forces behind the pirates think so too."

"Is there really someone behind these pirates? No way, what organization has such great power? How can such a powerful organization look down on these trifles?" Ajie looked puzzled. Now he even looked down on the trifles in the stables. All the stables have been converted into motels.

Some grooms simply let their girls stay in Fenglinwan permanently, and each room is charged a monthly fee.

As for why the young lady doesn't run her own business...

As a weak woman, she can still make some money. Once she is targeted by someone, the other party will not dare to do anything in Fenglinwan. But you can't stay in the hotel all the time, so you still have to find a backer.

"This is not a trivial matter." Wang Yaotang thought for a moment and said, "I overlooked one thing before, the insurance fee!"

"These shipping companies will insure their ships, cargoes and people before setting off, and the insurance premiums are not low. Tell me, if the seas are peaceful and there are no pirates, who would be willing to buy insurance?"

"Without bandits, there would be no soldiers; without gangs, there would be no need for Organized Crime and Triads; without pirates, there would be no insurance."

"Ah, this..." Ajie and Aji looked at each other. Insurance companies, especially multinational insurance companies, are giants. Others can crush them with just a flick of their fingers.

Of course, whether or not to take action over such a small matter is another matter.

But why take the risk!
