Pedro held his chin and looked at Roberto carefully as if he had discovered a new world.
This look made Roberto's anus tighten, and then he realized a serious problem.
Do I know too much? !
Damn, why do I talk so much? Isn’t it better to be a little transparent?
Shouldn't he be silenced?
The more Roberto thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his face gradually turned pale.
"Robedo, what's your education level?"
"Well, I graduated in philosophy from the University of Naples."
Everyone else's expressions became strange, and Luo Ji asked: "Why did you think of coming to this place to find a job? Isn't it a good idea to go north?"
"Uh, what's the problem here?" Roberto said secretly, he could only pretend to know nothing and asked in confusion.
Pedro glanced at him interestingly, but did not expose the other party's poor acting skills, "Okay, now that you are here, do your best. Maybe you can become a CEO and marry Bai Fumei in the future."
Roberto smiled dryly and said, "Haha, is there something wrong here?"
"Do you know about the Holy Crown Alliance?"
Um?
After hearing this question, Roberto perked up. Didn't he come to this ghost place just to track down the inside story of this mafia organization?
Does the other party know something inside?
He was surprised at first, but then he thought about it, this group of people are planning to start Nasdaq, it's not surprising if they know the inside story of the Holy Crown Alliance.
Roberto quickly said with a cute expression on his face: "I have heard that it is said that they control the black business in the entire Puglia area, and they are also inextricably linked to the local wealthy and dignitaries, but I think it should be those Is it exaggerated by the media?”
Luo Ji looked at him and said: "No! It's not an exaggeration, but an underestimation. Do you remember the port near us?
They control the entire port of Bari! "
boom--
Roberto's mind exploded after hearing this. How is this possible? !
He recalled what he saw and heard at the port a week ago. The entire port was so orderly. There was not even a gangster, let alone a mafia boss. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was a serious port.
Luo Ji then said to him: "Aren't you always wondering why I converted my apartment into a warehouse?"
Roberto quickly pricked up his ears for fear of missing a word.
"In order to combat the increasingly rampant smuggling activities in the country, the Italian government has decided to divide the major ports into zones so that smuggled goods will no longer be as common as before. It is estimated that it will take more than two months to officially start, but the major gangsters The Dang family has prepared a response plan.
The Vizzini Mafia in Sicily and the 'Ndrangheta in Calabria were already at loggerheads with the government, so they were not very popular with the government. They were still the same as they were before, and the central government was powerless to do anything.
The Camorra and the Holy Crown Alliance, under the advice of us Chinese businessmen, decided to make changes in several important port cities within their jurisdiction and gave us a group of apartments near the ports to be converted into warehouses. "
"You Chinese people are actually colluding with the mafia!"
Roberto was completely frightened.
"Don't look at me like that. I don't care about their other black businesses at all. I just regard them as the company's distributors in Europe."
Roberto's mind slowly calmed down, and he wanted to know more about the inside story.
"What did you say just now?
Oh, it's an apartment converted into a warehouse, so let's continue.
Because the Holy Crown Alliance and Camorra don't want to break up with the Center yet like the other two mafia groups, so when encountering this kind of situation, they usually build warehouses in other places, such as the suburbs.
But this obviously increases the logistics cost. In the past, the goods were unloaded directly from the port and then sent to their distribution center, and then sold to various countries in Europe. Therefore, we proposed that the apartment areas near the port could be directly converted into goods. The warehouse, as a temporary transfer station, greatly reduces logistics costs. "
Roberto was even more surprised at this time, because he had been walking around a lot in the past few days and was probably familiar with the environment here. He recalled at this time that there were probably more than a hundred rental apartments nearby.
In other words, the Holy Crown Alliance really has this demand and needs so many warehouses.
And this also shows that theoretically all these goods are smuggled!
Thinking of this, he quickly asked: "How is it possible! How could there be so many smuggled goods! The officials should have discovered that something was wrong in this situation long ago!"
Pedro rolled his eyes: "Yes, it has been discovered a long time ago, but the official has no way to start, because with the development of the Camorra Mafia, the smuggling activities for profit have spread all over the world, and the Camorra has also A huge network of interests has been secretly woven, and everyone on this network will cover for each other. Under layers of protection, the official has only caught a few minor characters in these years.
For example, a 'very large' smuggling gang was arrested a few months ago, and household hardware tools worth $100 million were seized, but this was just a drop in the bucket compared to this smuggling network.
Let me tell you this, at least 50% of the goods entering Italy from various ports in southern Italy are smuggled goods. "
When talking about the 100 million knives of hardware tools, both Pedro and Luo Ji looked a little weird, because the 100 million knives were from Starlink Technology and were reported by a family from the Holy Crown Alliance. At that time, it happened It was the time when Jinsha was on the market. Well, this batch of goods also set a record for the official inspection value of Italy.
hiss--
Roberto gasped.
Damn it!
Isn't this too exaggerated? !
Then Pedro directly moved down the hot pot that had been cooling for a while, picked up the induction cooker and showed Roberto the "Production Place - Italy" logo on it.
"Before, I was talking about smuggling. Now let me talk about Italy's 'locally made' products. For example, this induction cooker was just shipped out of the port yesterday. Do you think it is made in Italy? ?
Why do you think the port next to it is so efficient?
With so many locally made goods waiting to come out of the factory, do you think those transport drivers and port workers dare to let efficiency drop?
Many containers in the port have the same number. The port staff can always get the news first and know that those numbered containers will be 'randomly' inspected, so they put the batch of containers that have been prepared in the first row. After customs inspection, only one with the same number has passed customs, and all the others with the same number have passed customs and can travel unimpeded within Italy.
A similar approach is used for export, which may appear behind the counter or window of a shopping mall in other European countries on the second or third day. "
After Pedro's explanation, Roberto now understood what the other party meant when he said that the port was controlled by the mafia.
Nima is doing magic here!
Many goods may only pass through the transfer station of Italy, but as soon as they enter Italy, they will become the inventory of various factories in Italy. This way, they can avoid the high import tariffs, and then they will be shipped from the port. Transported to the whole world.
This kind of thing has formed a fast and fixed assembly line system. Everyone in this system performs their own duties, just like the various parts of a machine, working together to make this smuggling network operate efficiently. .
The new clothes that a young man in Bali, Gaul, wants to buy this month, the expensive watch on the wrist of a white-collar worker in the Financial City of Niu Country, the expensive caviar that a Hans Mu Nihei couple enjoyed on a date in a restaurant, etc. Wait, maybe these things all passed through a port in the south of Italy, and they were all produced in Italy!
No wonder it was so quiet at the port. He said that something always felt wrong. Of course it had to be quiet for this kind of thing!
But he immediately had a new question: "Where do all the goods here come from?"
"Ten percent comes from Ukolan, and eighty-nine percent comes from Asia."
