American comic: Attack of the Witcher

&nbAt 5:20 in the morning, in a private dock in Ninghai City, a dozen men gathered at the foot of an empty mountain. Some of them looked around from time to time, as if they were waiting for something.

&nbThis place is called Sifangling, and it is one of the most famous smuggling docks in Ninghai.

&nbIt is not a sea smuggling terminal like some terminals, but a terminal on land, but it does not transport smuggled goods by car.

&nbSomeone gave Sifangling a nickname, called Smuggling Paradise.

&nbBecause Sifangling is relatively close to the Nanyue Kingdom, one side of the many mountains here is the Chinese border, and the other side is the Nanyue border.

&nbMany smuggling terminals are engaged in big business. Chicken feet, frozen meat and other items are shipped from South Vietnam in ships, and then transported to the port and sold to various parts of China. Or they smuggled in luxury cars and sold them to rich second-generation coal bosses in various places. Through their connections, they communicated with the underworld and paid some money for tea, and then they successfully registered the cars and turned them into legal cars.

&nbBut it’s different here in Sifangling, because their smuggling channels and sea machine freight are different. Most of them come over mountains and ridges, and can only smuggle small and high-value items, such as watches, luxury mobile phones, high-end cosmetics, etc.

&nbAfter all, customs duties are too expensive. Products such as cosmetics have to pay 50% consumption tax, plus 17% value-added tax and 25% customs duty.

&nbThe tax rate method is not to directly multiply these tax rates, but to first multiply the tariff rate to get the tariff, then add the value of the cosmetics itself, and then multiply it by other taxes.

&nbAfter counting all the taxes and fees for cosmetics worth 10,000 yuan through customs, more than 10,000 yuan is the tax that should be paid. If the value of the cosmetics itself is more than 20,000 yuan, and then transported to various domestic dealers for sale, the value will be around 30,000 yuan or even higher.

&nbHigh taxes and fees make things imported into China much more expensive than abroad. A Land Rover costing 300,000 yuan in China costs more than 1 million yuan, and most of it is paid in taxes.

&nbIf you can save these high taxes and fees, it will be equivalent to making a lot of money in vain. Add in the profits from selling at high prices, and it can only be described as huge profits.

&nbMarx once said such a famous saying: "If capital has a profit of 10%, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; if there is a profit of 20%, it will become active; if there is a profit of 50%, it will be used everywhere. It takes desperate risks; for 100% profit, it dares to trample all human laws; with 300% profit, it dares to commit any crime..."

&nbWith ​​huge profits, there will naturally be people who break the law and commit crimes, so smuggling becomes active.

&nbSifangling is surrounded by mountains on all sides. Unlike other places where buses and passengers pass through Nanyue Expressway, the only roads here are steep mountain roads and mountain walls.

&nbMost of the people responsible for the transportation are residents from South Vietnam, because their country is still too poor compared to China. As of 2015, their per capita annual income is only more than 1900 US dollars, which is about Chinese dollars. The average monthly salary is just over a thousand Chinese dollars.

&nbBut here, they set a month’s salary in China after just a few days of work.

&nbThese South Vietnamese people worked very hard to put the smuggled boxes on their backs, and then fixed them with ropes and tied them to their bodies. Some people even carried two or three boxes at once, with a total weight of more than 100 kilograms.

&nbMost South Vietnamese people are relatively short in stature, and there are both men and women who come here to move things. Most of the boxes like this are carried by women, even old women in their fifties and sixties from South Vietnam.

&nbGenerally, men carry heavier things. There were news reports that a man climbed a mountain road just by carrying a motorcycle on his shoulders.

&nbThere are more than 100 kilograms of stuff on their backs, which is equivalent to the weight of the two of them. However, these South Vietnamese people are as if nothing happened. As long as they tie the rope tightly, they can walk on the steep mountain road as if they are walking on flat ground.

&nbSometimes it is necessary to climb, and they climbed over it as if nothing happened. It was as if the packing box behind them, which was several times heavier and even larger than them, had no impact on them at all.

&nbA person who had some relationship with the local forces once came here and used his mobile phone to take pictures of them carrying things up the mountain. Then he just sighed: "When China and South Vietnam were at war decades ago, they finally understood that South Vietnam How brave the female soldiers are."

&nbAfter they transported these things to the top of the mountain, there was a simple small house made of cement bricks on the top of the mountain. The surroundings were built with cement bricks to form a guardrail, and the things were placed inside. Those small houses were where the porters usually rested.

&nbOpposite this simple residential area is the Huaxia Customs on the top of the mountain. A few dozen meters further is the Nanyue Customs Control Card.

&nbThis is equivalent to a very large mountain range, with China on one side and South Vietnam on the other. On the top of the mountain in Nanyue Country opposite, there are also simple little houses like this, and they are piled with things.

&nbThey can't transport things there during the day. Even after moving the things, they can only take a nap and play with their mobile phones in the simple small house or next to the cargo pile, waiting for the arrival of night.

&nb From 9 to 11 o'clock in the evening, the customs officers on the mountaintops of the two countries would sleep and take a nap. Then these porters from South Vietnam would move things from the mountains on the Chinese side, and then from the mountains of South Vietnam on the opposite side.

&nbSimilarly, the same is true for the porters over in South Vietnam. They move here and bring new ones back there.

&nbWith ​​one round trip like this, you can earn 100 Chinese coins. Two more trips will make it 300 yuan a day. It only takes three or four days to reach South Vietnam's monthly income. If there are more goods, it may be even more.

&nbA month's work is equivalent to a year in South Vietnam. Those who are considered poor in South Vietnam will naturally not let go of this opportunity to turn a crow into a phoenix.

&nbThe sacks outside the boxes they carry goods are usually marked with numbers, such as "xl01" or "jq12".

&nbThe English letters in the front represent the code number of a certain contractor, and the numbers after it represent the porter's number.

&nbGenerally, on a mountain top, there will be about thirty contractors assigned by the underworld forces. These thirty contractors must pay 9 Chinese coins to the underworld every month. Then they will get inside information and take advantage of the customs at 11 o'clock and o'clock in the evening. When staff take a nap, they can smuggle goods over.

&nbEach contractor can recruit thirty porters to help them carry their things, and they will be paid 100 yuan for a round trip.

&nbIn addition to transporting things, if people from the two countries sneak into another country, they can also sneak into the team of porters. As long as they don’t take anything and follow them, it’s usually fine and no one will care about you.

&nbBut if a person walks over with a lot of expensive things and is discovered, something will usually happen. All the things on him will be confiscated for smuggling and then sent back.

&nbSimilarly carry things there. If the number on the sack is not a familiar one, I'm sorry, it will be confiscated.

&nbOnly those who have paid protection fees to the underworld can use legal transportation numbers and move things there. Otherwise, no one will support you and stand up for you in this barren mountain.

&nb As the saying goes, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. If a disobedient person is killed by the underworld here, his death will be in vain. Without any help or pity, he is almost like a dead ant.

&nbThe dozen or so people looking around at the bottom of the mountain were just stowaways who had just paid a small amount of money to the contractor assigned by the underworld, and the contractor took them to smuggle them over.

&nbAt this moment, they were looking around, as if waiting for someone to join them.

&nb"Huhuhu"

&nbAt this time, the sound of a motorcycle speeding towards this side was heard at the foot of the mountain, and then it turned off and stopped at the foot of the mountain.

&nbAfter a while, a man in a white shirt quickly rushed towards the dozen stowaways and said in a panic: "Pluto, Elvis, it's not good, it's not good."

&nb"Why are you so flustered? Didn't I tell you in the training class to stay calm when things happen?" Hearing this person yelling, someone in the crowd soon responded coldly.

&nb "The Snake King is dead and so is the Blood Fiend. The other people who arrived in Ninghai first and lurked are all dead." The white shirt finally trotted up to the crowd and said breathlessly.

&nb"What?" Upon hearing what the man in the white shirt said, the dozen or so people present couldn't help but open their mouths, and everyone looked surprised.

&nb"What do you mean, everyone is dead?" Someone in the crowd grabbed the man in the white shirt and asked, shouting almost crazily.

"Yes, everyone is dead, including the Snake King." The man in the white shirt was not angry because he was caught, but said in frustration.

&nbAfter a while, the person who caught him finally let go, and the crowd calmed down, as if the death of the person had little impact on them.

&nb"Were they all killed by the United Nations special forces?" A thin man walked out of the crowd and asked coldly.

&nb"The Snake King sneaked into the embassy first and was killed by them. The others who had not lurked in were killed by a team of Chinese special forces in the Sanben Hotel," the man in the white shirt responded.

&nb"Damn it, it's the Chinese special soldier again." After hearing this, the thin man cursed angrily. But he quickly calmed down and asked: "With their superb concealment methods, they should not be discovered. Have you found out how they were found and killed?"

&nb "I don't know. I have contacted some powerful people in Ninghai to inquire about the information. As long as we promise enough benefits, those people should be able to give us the most authentic information." The man in the white shirt said.

&nb "Okay, hurry up and investigate. At any cost, you must find out the reason why they were caught, otherwise you will come to see me." The thin man said coldly with a straight face.

&nb"Yes" the short man agreed quickly.

&nbThe thin man waved his hand expressionlessly and said, "You go back first. We will not enter Ninghai City for the time being. We will lurk here for a few days. We will go out after you send accurate news."

& nb

& nb

&nbAt twelve o'clock at noon, in a chic villa in Ninghai, a thin boy was practicing martial arts on the backyard lawn.

&nb"嚯嚯嚯" The boy practiced very hard, punching and kicking like a tiger, and shouting after the moves from time to time.

&nbHe was wearing a set of loose training clothes, his forehead was covered with sweat, and the clothes on his body were soaked with sweat, which showed how hard he practiced.

&nbAt this time, a young girl wearing a long gown came over and said to the boy who was practicing: "Xiao Wu, go take a shower and change clothes, and prepare to go out to eat with me."

&nb"Can I go out after practicing for a while?" After hearing what the young woman said, the boy replied.

&nb "No, it's already noon. You're not hungry and I'm not hungry. Besides, how can you have the energy to continue practicing if you don't eat." The young woman curled her lips and complained with some dissatisfaction.

&nbThe boy is Lu Xuan’s disciple Xiao Wu, and the girl is Luo Xun’er, the mistress of this villa.

&nb"Okay Sister Xun'er, then I'll finish all this set of punches and then go take a shower." After hearing this, Xiao Wu pursed his lips and responded.

&nbWhen Luo Xun'er heard this, he suddenly showed a hint of displeasure on his face and shouted, "I still have to finish a set of punches. How long will it take?"

&nb"It's almost time. It's already halfway through the fight. It will be over in five minutes." Xiao Wu replied.

&nb "Ouch, five minutes takes so long." When Luo Xun'er heard that there were still five minutes left, she, who was always in a hurry, seemed to be waiting in no hurry, and couldn't help complaining.

&nbBut seeing that Xiao Wu was concentrating on practicing boxing and ignoring her, she suddenly felt like a frustrated ball. She pursed her cherry lips and murmured: "Okay, okay, then hurry up."

&nb"Finished"

&nbFive minutes later, Xiao Wu finally finished a set of punches, yelled and ran to his room to take a shower and change clothes.

&nbAfter about five minutes, Xiao Wu changed his clothes and came to Luo Xun'er with slightly damp hair that had not been dried by the hair dryer. He said, "Sister Xun'er, I've finished taking a shower." .”

&nb "So soon" Seeing Xiao Wu appearing in front of him so quickly, Luo Xun'er looked slightly surprised and shouted in a low voice.

&nbXiao Wu smiled slightly and replied: "This is normal. Men can be clean after just scrubbing, and they are not migrant workers who work every day. The master said that in the army, the average soldier seldom takes a bath for more than five minutes. Use the time saved to do other things.”

&nb "Huh, you're not a soldier. Besides, why would you want to learn from a bad guy like your master?" Luo Xun'er curled her lips and said a little angrily.

&nb"Hey, my master is not bad." Xiao Wu smiled and said with a meaningful smile.

&nb"Pa"

&nbLuo Xun'er raised her hand and gave Xiao Wu a slap on the head, complaining slightly unhappily: "You little brat, why are you doing all this nonsense? Hurry up and get something to eat."

&nb"It's unfair, I didn't think anything of it." Xiao Wu rubbed his head and shouted innocently.

&nb "You're still pretending, your smile just now has betrayed you deeply." Luo Xun'er raised her cheeks and muttered.

&nb"Hehehe." Xiao Wu just smiled, rubbed his head and didn't speak again.

&nbSo the two of them walked side by side in front of Luo Xun'er's yellow Lamborghini, opened the door and got in the car, and drove away from the villa to find something delicious.
