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

Chapter 173: The Way to Move Goods (asking for monthly tickets)

When we walked to the beach, the younger brothers were struggling to move the oil drums off the big plane.

The oil drums were placed on the simple dock, immediately loaded onto a special cart, and pulled along the pier at a trot.

(Oil drum transporter, as shown in the picture:)

Seeing his younger brother carrying the materials with great effort, Wang Yaotang frowned. Although he brought 15 people with him, 50 tons of cooking oil meant that each person had to carry more than 3 tons on average. It might be okay at the beginning, but he would definitely not be able to bear it later.

Sure enough, there is still a difference between the experiment and the actual practice. We should make a movable electric small crane.

(As shown in the picture:)

A group of people pulled over, and Wang Yaotang jumped from the pier to the big plane, watching them move things.

Da Fei was shaking so much that it was difficult for him to exert strength. When he got onto the temporary pier, the pier was up and down and somewhat unstable.

I didn't feel it when I tested it before, but I found it still didn't work when I used it.

I touched my chin and frowned, thinking about how to improve it. In fact, it can be made into a building block style.

(Pictured)
But it seems that it is not available on the market yet.

Hong Kong Island is one of the three largest ports in the world, with docks everywhere. People who need to build temporary docks to park their small boats...are not well-known!
But we can get a patent, there will always be people who need it.

Prepare these things later, and it will be much more convenient to ship the goods next time.

Quick to build, quick to load and unload, quick to dismantle!
After watching for a while, Wang Yaotang jumped off the big plane and went ashore. He took the intercom from Shaze and said, "Calling Logistics Team 2. This is the boss. You can set off. You can set off."

In the Shekou warehouse, Badong looked at Siyanzai and pointed at himself, "Call me?"

Seeing Siyanzi nod, Badong immediately picked up the intercom and said, "I am Badong, no, I am Logistics Team 2, got it, we will leave immediately."

He handed the walkie-talkie to his deputy, said hello and slowly left the port, with three large aircraft following quickly behind him.

After 8 minutes, we rushed to Lanjiaozui and turned into Longgu Waterway. After contacting the sentry tower, a red beacon lit up on the sea. We confirmed the direction was correct and rushed to the temporary dock in a few minutes.

Chaozai Dafei was still unloading cargo, so the three of them stopped Dafei on the other side and jumped down by stepping on the bow.

I stood on the pier and jumped off to try it out. It was quite stable!

When they ship goods, they drive the fishing boats until they are stranded, and then carry the goods ashore little by little in waterproof bags. They carry dozens of kilograms of goods back and forth in the sea water, which is very tiring, and the sea water is very cold in winter...

The eight people came ashore and trotted over to Ti Gudong and Wang Yaotang, "Grandpa."

"Well, good job."

"Brother Yao, that's pretty sharp!" The Badong guys gave him a thumbs up. "When we were traveling, it was either windy or rainy at sea, so we had to find a place to stop the boat at any time. We would drift for half a month or a month, and it was easy for us to not be able to come back."

"Yes." Pojiaoqi said with emotion: "I have been shipping goods for 5 years, and almost every year a ship disappears at sea, and the people on board are most likely dead."

"So dangerous?" Wang Yaotang asked in surprise.

"Of course it's dangerous, we need to move the goods!" Chai Ji looked around subconsciously, and then whispered, "There are strong winds and rains at sea, and the weather changes at any time. Once there is extreme weather, there are no small islands in the nearby sea area, and we can't go ashore. We are basically dead."

"This is not the most dangerous thing. We have experience with weather changes. What we are most afraid of is encountering Vietnamese monkeys." Badong said and shook his hands, "Damn, those monkeys will chase after a lone fishing boat and try to rob it."

"Aren't you all carrying guns?" Wang Yaotang asked.

"They also carry guns when they go fishing. They don't know we are transporting goods, so if they see three or five boats, they will come and siege us. It's very troublesome. Sometimes we even encounter navy patrol boats..." Badong shook his head and said, "It all depends on luck."

Wang Yaotang turned his head to look at Qigudong, who turned his head away. It must be dangerous to move the goods, otherwise why would the goods be sold at such a high price?

Seeing this, Wang Yaotang laughed softly. With such desperate energy, why not do something else? It's really funny.

"What are you laughing at!" Qi Gudong asked unhappily, "How come your walkie-talkie has such a long communication range?"

"Want to use it on the sea?" Wang Yaotang laughed, "Forget it, it's impossible."

"You can see that it's very easy to move goods today. I have been preparing for it a week ago. The last time I went to Renwan, I bought a two-story house and set up a 15-meter-high iron frame on it. The base station is there."

"Repeaters are installed on the sea sentry tower to ensure intercom communication. Even so, it can only guarantee a communication distance of 7 kilometers in normal weather. In windy and rainy days at sea, the communication distance will be reduced, which is useless."

"Then there is no other way?" Chi Gudong still didn't give up. If two ships could cooperate with each other on the sea, the safety performance would be greatly improved.

"Sure, we can get a few maritime radios. They can communicate up to 1000 kilometers away. But the ones we can get are civilian versions that are not encrypted. When a call is made, the first ones to receive it must be the Marine Police or the Navy. The military ones are encrypted. I guess Tiao Lin and Xin Ji may have them. They are the Military Control Commission."

"This is the kind of radio that spies use. If you dare to use it, it won't be the anti-drug team that comes to arrest you, but the military."

The corner of Qi Gudong's mouth twitched, and he immediately gave up the idea, "Aren't you afraid that the police will receive your intercom?"

"Let me introduce you to Motorola's latest Sabre intercom system, which is specially developed for the American police force. It has high power and encryption function. The intercoms in the hands of the Hong Kong police are all five years old. They are outdated."

"Okay, Brother Dong." The fourth master smiled and patted the boning Dong's arm. "Ayao, this is called professionalism. Since you are ready to change your career, don't think too much." Uncle Lin smiled and pointed at his busy younger brother. "One night, 50 tons, can make 80. Do it once every four days, 5000 million a year, and there is no risk."

"The first time we ship goods, we mainly check the routes and problems during transportation. Once it's mature, we can easily ship a hundred tons in one night." Wang Yaotang said with a smile.

"Can it be faster?" Ti Gudong immediately became interested.

"Sure." Wang Yaotang explained the problems he had discovered and the solutions, and patted his chest with a smug smile, "I'll apply for a patent for this assembly barrel. Then I'll be an inventor. Who would want to hang out with you guys and be a gangster?"

"You bad boy." Qi Gudong was so angry that he kicked him.

Uncle Lin, Fourth Master, Chaozi and others all started laughing.

After two hours of hard work, all five boats were unloaded, and the 5 Chaozai men started the big flight and returned along the original route.

"The food stalls, horse pens, KTVs, and fish farms should be taken care of sooner rather than later. It's too conspicuous to turn on the lights here in the middle of the night." Wang Yaotang said in a deep voice.

"Well, land is a problem, but I will find a way." After making a delivery, Qi Gudong's confidence increased.

He is not worried about the shipping channels. The boat people in Hong Kong Island can easily digest them, and there are also vegetable markets and restaurants.

Notify Siyanzi to make the second trip in two hours. The brothers are all exhausted after moving, transporting and loading 25 tons of goods. Wang Yaotang simply asked his brothers to go back with the truck and exchange with the people who are unloading the goods.

We called Qi Gudong and a few others to go back to the car to rest and wait for the next shipment. We opened five docks at the same time and equipped them with cranes. It would only take more than ten minutes to complete the shipment. It would not be a problem to ship 300 tons in one night.

……

Shekou.

"Chief, they have started transporting, using a large aircraft, and the speed is really fast!" A man in a green uniform trotted over and reported.

"Lao Shi, it should be smuggling, what do you think?" the man who was called the director asked with a smile.

"You said smuggling is smuggling!" Director Shi snorted, "Can't it be that there are fewer people at the dock at night, so it's more convenient to transport goods?"

"Who normally uses a big plane for delivery? It has 6 thrusters and diesel is free, right?"

"It's old lady Elizabeth who can't collect taxes. What does it have to do with you, Ning Guohui? You don't need to worry about it. Don't use the US dollars."

"Hahaha, I definitely want the US dollars. I can just ship the goods as normal." Ning Guohui said with a smile, "That kid has so many goodies. I'm really jealous of Dafei. If we can pair up with him, it will be very convenient to catch smugglers."

"We also intercepted some communication signals. There's only one warehouse here, and we can hear someone shouting. They must be communicating with Hong Kong Island, but we can't crack it. What a great thing!"

"Hey, Lao Ning, I'm warning you, don't mess around. This batch of rapeseed oil is worth $80. According to Xiao Wang, we need to ship at least $500 million worth of goods this year. We only made $110 billion in foreign exchange last year. Five million is 500 percent of a thousand."

"Nonsense, of course I know, I was just thinking about it."

"Don't even think about it. I mentioned it to him once before. I wanted to get a set of high-powered ultra-low temperature freezing equipment. He agreed to help me try it."

"What is it?" Ning Guohui blinked.

"I don't understand it either. Many laboratories need it, but it can't be produced domestically."

It was not until early 2003 that Zhongke Meiling launched the -86℃ ultra-low temperature storage equipment with completely independent intellectual property rights.

Ning Guohui nodded, "If he can be brought back, he will not be a smuggler, but a patriotic overseas Chinese."

Director Shi nodded in agreement.

……

Two hours later, the second batch of shipments was no longer divided into the first and the second. Five large aircraft broke through the waves and rushed out of Lanjiaozui. As soon as they rushed out, the walkie-talkie rang.

"Calling Logistics 1, calling Logistics 1, this is the sentry tower, please reply if you receive it."

"This is the logistics team." Chaozai responded fluently this time.

"We have spotted a Marine Police patrol boat. Please evade to the west. If you receive any, please reply."

"Fuck his mother, he's not sleeping in the middle of the night and comes out to bite people again!" Chaozi threw the walkie-talkie away almost like a conditioned reflex, grabbed the steering gear and hit it hard. Dafei tilted almost 50 degrees, and the oil drums on the boat collided with each other with a loud bang.

"I lost it, it's going to flip over!" The deputy looked horrified.

"I..." Chaozi broke out in a cold sweat. This was not a fishing boat. It was going too fast and he hit it too hard.

Gritting my teeth, I grabbed the steering gear and tried to adjust it back, but it was too late. The car tilted more and more, and then it went down!
The waves instantly splashed up three or four meters high!

"Oh my god!" Badong and Pojiaoqi who were following behind screamed!
