The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

Chapter 248 The Smuggling Business of the Red Empire

"Boy, it doesn't matter what it is!"

Lukitz patted Dunn's shoulder with a smile on his face.

"The most important thing is that you have already gained tangible benefits, right?"

Lukitz pointed to Dunn's pocket where the rubles were.

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

Dunn and Rokoff were the only ones left in the warehouse.

"Nepo, you are a smart kid. I've seen that since I took over from you!"

The smile on Rokoff's face was gone, and he spoke to Dunn in a serious tone.

“Although we didn’t tell you directly what’s going on here, I think you’ve probably already guessed it!

Remember not to report this to your superiors. If you dare to tell anyone, we can all testify that you are the one who caused the trouble!"

Rokoff also patted Dunn on the shoulder.

"If I don't agree to what happened today, will the people outside rush in and hold me down? I won't be able to get rid of what happened today, right?"

Dunn winked at Rokoff, and the man outside just walked out the door but didn't go far.

Considering the atmosphere just now, Dunn could basically guess that these people were doing it in private, and to put it bluntly, they were smuggling some prohibited items for extra income.

"You are really smart! If I can tell you straight out of this matter, everyone in the inspection team is involved! If you don't participate, you will be the only one who will be in trouble!"

Rokoff had already adopted a semi-threatening tone.

"I think you know what to do!"

"Of course I should know what to do!"

Dunn patted his pocket with a smile.

"To be honest, if I didn't need this thing, I wouldn't have come to the Far East!"

Rokoff was satisfied with Dunn's attitude and nodded.

“I know many of you came here to the Far East reluctantly!

But as you can see, it is not difficult to make a fortune in the Far East, as long as everyone is united enough!"

"Yes, unity is the most important!"

Dunn emphasized solidarity.

He originally thought that the social corruption of the Red Empire would not occur until the Soviet revisionist era of Emperor Xunzong.

I didn't expect that this era has already begun.

However, this is probably also related to the fact that the Far East region is high and far away.

Vladivostok is too far from Moscow.

Far away in Moscow, many things are not even noticeable.

Or maybe even if they noticed it, there was nothing they could do, or there were even people in Moscow taking care of them, otherwise people here wouldn't be able to do such things so recklessly.

You have to know that you have not been in the inspection team for long, and the other party may have been observing you when you entered the inspection team.

After a month of investigation, I decided to do it myself.

But it is very likely that the other party is simply fearless and is not afraid of being informed by oneself.

If, as Rokoff said, the entire inspection team was involved in this matter, then as a minority, even if I reported it, it would be very disadvantageous to me.

What's more, Dunn is not a member of the Red Empire, so what does the corruption of the Red Empire have to do with him?

Dunn even planned to find a way to contact this group of smugglers, but he couldn't use his current identity.

Moreover, the inspection layer is definitely the lowest level in the smuggling process. There is no point in looking for these inspection team members. It happens that I am on a business trip in the Red Empire now, so I might as well take this opportunity to observe the smuggling ecology in the Red Empire!

Dunn walked out of the warehouse with Rokoff calmly.

As soon as he left the warehouse, Rokoff nodded to Lukitz who was not far away.

Lukitz raised his index finger and shook it in his ear, and Dunn saw that all the patrolmen who were not on night shift turned around and left.

Including Rokoff, there were only a few patrolmen on night shift left at the scene.

"Just do what you need to do, kid. This has never happened!"

Lukitz, who was closest to Dunn, whispered something to Dunn and turned away.

Dunn continued with his work.

Until the morning shift.

Rokoff, who had worked with Dunn last night, took over from Dunn. He showed no emotion on his face, as if what happened yesterday had never happened.

Dunn and Rokoff quickly took over as usual, then went to John's warehouse to find John and go home together.

As soon as he returned to his residence, John took a shower and fell asleep directly on the bed.

Although the night shift is slightly easier than the day shift, it requires staying up late, which is actually not much easier. John, who was tired after a night of sleep, slept soundly and fell asleep almost as soon as he lay down.

Dunn did not go to bed directly. As a member of the inspection team, he actually had many opportunities to be lazy, even though he did some work last night.

But first of all, the intensity of his work could not be compared with John's. Secondly, he had plenty of time at night and could be lazy and find a place to take a quiet sleep.

Last night he was called directly by Rokov to work. Although he paid attention to many details, he never thought that they were doing smuggling work.

Looking at the goods they were carrying, Dunn could actually roughly guess what they were, although all the goods were tightly wrapped in cartons and he couldn't see clearly what was inside.

But Dunn still carefully discovered that some of the cardboard boxes were covered with some hair, and it was not ordinary hair.

It's animal hair.

It is obviously processed animal hair.

The analysis was based on the size and weight of the cartons being moved and the hairs clinging to the cartons.

The paper initially concluded that the box should contain fur.

In his previous life, Dunn’s girlfriend preferred fur.

Dunn himself also bought several furs for her.

It was possible to recognize that the furs he moved yesterday contained fox fur and mink fur.

The Red Empire has always had a great demand for fur. The embarrassing thing is that it seems that all the Red Empire's technological points are focused on heavy industry. For these light industrial products, the domestic production has not been very high, and basically all of them are imported from other countries.

The future will be better, but not much better.

Even to the Russia of the era that Dunn traveled through.

The current situation in Russia is that heavy industrial enterprises are more developed than light industrial enterprises.

When domestic production demand cannot meet the purchasing desire of domestic people, smuggling comes into being.

This is true even for a socialist country like the Red Empire.

Moreover, Dunn analyzed that the smuggled items here were definitely not just fur.

Otherwise, why did Aliyev choose all tall and strong young men when he was selecting people?

Although he said that it was to suppress those old-time dock workers.

But the problem is that in this era in the Red Empire, there are patrol teams, inspection teams, and even supervision teams.

How many ordinary people or workers dare to resist?

It is very likely that this group of tall and heavy young people were recruited in order to be able to smuggle heavier items in the future, heavier in the physical sense.

But now Dunn has plenty of patience since he has already participated in it.

This group of people from the inspection team have shared the work together, so if it gets dirty, I should be considered one of their own in their eyes. They will definitely call on me next time there is such a job.

Observe a few more times and see what is going on!

The second smuggling trip came soon, about three days later, and Dunn had already switched to the day shift.

So when it was time to get off work, Lukitz quietly told everyone to gather at the last warehouse after 12 o'clock in the evening.

"I'll come find you tonight!"

After Lukitz released the news, Rokoff came up to Dunn and whispered to him.

"Because this is a private job, you can't go through the warehouse door. I'll take you there first, and next time you'll know how to go!"

Dunn nodded calmly, followed the normal shift change procedure and left the dock.

Rokoff knew his address, and Dunn did not hide it from him.

Dunn did not sleep at night. At 12 o'clock, he heard a knock on the door on time.

At this time, Leo struggled to get up and wanted to open the door, but was stopped by Dunn.

"I'm here to see me, just go to sleep!"

Leo is a light sleeper and will be woken up by the slightest movement.

Except for the first few days when I was not used to the work in the logging mill, I was exhausted every day and could not hear any sound when I fell asleep.

After getting used to it a little, Leo's old problem soon recurred.

Turning around, Leo saw that Dunn hadn't taken off his clothes yet, and knew that Dunn must have been ready. He nodded and went back to his bed to sleep.

Although I am very curious about Dunn's behavior.

But as a qualified agent, Leo also knew things that he shouldn't know, so it was best not to investigate too deeply for now.

Dunn left the bedroom after getting dressed.

Their residence had only two rooms suitable for bedrooms.

Even as the leader, Dunn had to share a room with several other people.

In order not to disturb everyone's rest, the enemies Leo and John must sleep separately.

After walking out the door, there was Rokoff waiting for Dunn on a bicycle outside.

Seeing Dunn coming out, Rokoff raised his head and Dunn understood and sat on the back seat of Rokoff's bicycle.

"The people you live with weren't awakened, were they?"

As he rode his bicycle towards the pier with Dunn, Rokoff asked the question casually.

"There was a worker at the lumber mill who was a light sleeper, and you woke him up when you knocked on the door just now!

But I told him that I had to go to an extra meeting today, and he didn't ask any questions and just fell asleep again!"

Rokoff nodded slightly first, then spoke to Dunn.

"Next time this happens, you'd better not tell him that he is working overtime! There are very few people in our inspection team, and there will be overtime. Fortunately, he is from the logging factory and doesn't know much about the situation at our dock!

But I will only knock on the door this time. Next time, you will know how to enter the warehouse and you can go there by yourself!"
