Chapter 1160: 1160. Sea Mansion (4/5)
Chapter 1160 1160. Sea Mansion (45)
Things went as Li Du expected. After discovering that this was a big scam, the angry old gentlemen and old ladies quickly overwhelmed the organizer.
Even, the emotions of the tourists were more violent than he expected.
The police station originally arranged for two police cars to come over to check things out. After finding that there seemed to be a riot on the beach, the police didn't even dare to get out of the car. The police car drove slowly on the beach, and they asked for support in the car.
Then, four more police cars drove over, and then more police came from all directions, including a city riot vehicle.
The police apprehended the scam organizers and separated the tour group to calm tourists down.
Some old gentlemen and old ladies were so emotional that they couldn't be appeased at all, and almost attacked the police.
Seeing this, the Australian police were rude, and directly knocked him to the ground with a shield, put on handcuffs and took him away.
At this time, the angry old gentlemen and old ladies calmed down. They found that the foreign police were not as shy as domestic ones and could do nothing to them. These blond-haired and green-eyed policemen don’t care how old you are.
After the police brought down a few people and arrested a few people, the rest calmed down.
But when they were honest, they had nowhere to go, and the tour guides were taken away by the police, saying they were taking them back to assist in the investigation.
Li Du and his parents were involved, so they could not leave and were arranged by the police to stay on the beach.
At this time, the high-level contacts of the Hai Rui-Winston Group became effective, and they didn't even need to be released on bail, because Li and Du were both victims, and the police let them go directly.
Some people were anxious after seeing it and asked: "Why can they leave when we have to stay here?"
The policeman shrugged and said, "They're not with you."
"But they also drew a lottery, I know them, especially that young man, his surname is Li, he got the special prize, a big yacht." The man said anxiously.
"Would you like some coffee?" asked the policeman.
The man was dumbfounded, and said, "I want to know when we can leave."
"Soon." The policeman smiled, "We are not detaining you, but protecting your personal safety. Once the investigation is over, we will send you away."
The man resentfully said: "Okay, give me a cup of coffee."
The policeman nodded, waved to his colleague and said, "Come on, pour auntie a cappuccino."
Li Du left with the big yacht without leaving his body or name.
Of course, this is just an ideal state. After all, he took away the biggest prize, and the police still want him to investigate.
But the case had nothing to do with Li Du. The police only investigated and collected evidence, and couldn't even confiscate the yacht.
That night, reports of related cases appeared on the news station.
The report said that the police cracked a major transnational fraud case. The perpetrators were multi-nationalities, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Americans and British.
The gang used the free lottery as an excuse to contact travel agencies and send tourists to participate in the event. The prizes were all fake and low-quality products.
They make money through two methods, one is to pretend to help the tax bureau to collect taxes that do not meet the value of the prizes, and the other is to charge tourists a handling fee on the grounds of helping to sell the prizes.
For example, if tourists get a car and it is not easy to take it back home, scammers will sign a consignment agreement with them and charge them for handling fees, venue fees, labor costs and other reasons.
After collecting the money, they will leave the city that day, take the cheated money away, and leave tourists with a pile of tattered and worthless things.
This kind of fraud has happened in many countries, but it appeared in Australia for the first time, so the local police did not detect the abnormality in advance.
The scam gang has succeeded many times, and they can be said to be rich and powerful. In the past, their grand prize was only a real luxury car. This time they came to Sydney and decided to play a bigger role and got a luxury yacht.
The yacht is the only real item among the prizes. This must be genuine, because they have to pass the Sydney official inspection for the lottery, and there is a link to check the prizes. This yacht is used to cope with the inspection.
They were going to drive away the yacht on the same day after the fraud was successful, return it, and leave Australia with the money.
Unexpectedly, the yacht was taken away, and the fraudulent activities were exposed, and finally ended up in the end, losing money and losing face.
Australians have little interest in this kind of hoax news, it's just an after-dinner conversation for them, a joke about the stupidity of the scammers.
They didn't think deeply about what was going on in the case, but the swindlers did think about it, thinking that there was something wrong with Li Du, and all of this might have something to do with him.
But they are about to be thrown into prison, so they have no way to investigate this matter, so they can only suffer from being dumb.
Li Du read the news on the yacht, and the platform got a luxury yacht, which made him very happy.
This yacht was produced by Sunscot in the UK, the specific model is Manhattan55, which has just replaced the old model 53 and was launched on the market. The scammer bought this yacht, which is the first Sunscot M55 in Australia.
All luxury yachts need to be customized. The one in his hand is a sample. The scammers don’t have time to customize it, so they bought the sample boat at a high price. In fact, if it is customized, the M55 will be cheaper, only about 4.5 million Australian dollars.
Compared with the Haixing X60 yacht owned by Li Du, this yacht is more advanced and luxurious.
The hull of the M55 has smooth lines and has three decks. The proportion division and space utilization are perfect. The shape is very dynamic and the internal room capacity is large.
This is a multi-level yacht with a view. Like the Starfish X60, it also has a double-deck driving area, which can be comfortably driven around the clock. The cab is very spacious and can accommodate a bed.
The length of the hull is nearly 20 meters. There is a spacious main reception area, a master bedroom, a large VIP room and four small rooms. There are well-equipped kitchens and entertainment facilities.
In the past, it was quite crowded for Li Du and other seven or eight people to live on the starfish, but there is no problem in putting it on the Sansk M55, which can accommodate seventeen or eight people.
In terms of power, the M55 adopts powerful and quiet dual diesel engines and propellers. Big Ivan said that this can play a double insurance role. The two engines and propellers can work independently at ordinary times, and the other can continue to be used if one is broken.
In the evening, Li Du couldn't wait to live in, to experience the driving feeling of this luxury yacht first.
The yacht itself has a viewing layer, you can sit on it to watch the sunrise and sunset, and you can lie on it and look up at the endless starry sky.
If there are more people, you can go to the salon area behind the yacht. There is a sea bathing platform that can be raised and lowered at the stern. This platform not only allows people to take a sea bath in it, but also can park multi-functional rubber boats and motor boats.
In short, Li Duxin has acquired this yacht, which is a mansion on the sea!
