The gift Wang Bo gave was a CD containing the edited version of the interrogation. Based on his understanding of Robert, the grumpy old man would definitely be angry after seeing it.

That's all he expected, as long as he could make the little old man angry. He didn't expect this CD to bring any other big effects. He had other ways to take revenge on Tahiti Town.

Hani contacted his former friends in the town, and then he told Wang Bo that there might be an underground music piracy factory in Tahiti Town!

This matter has not been confirmed yet. Haney just got this information. If it is confirmed, then he can make Robert feel happy.

The inspector was looking for evidence to confirm the matter, and Wang Bo took Kidd and Uncle Bing to Dunedin. He was going to choose cars, one hundred scrapped cars.

The South Island's abandoned vehicle processing center is in Dunedin. If a car is scrapped in an accident or has expired, it will be declared scrapped and sent to the processing center.

Generally speaking, these cars will be cut, and the iron plates will be sent to the steel plant for smelting and reuse, while other parts will be disposed of as garbage, such as being sent to the ocean to sink to the bottom of the sea.

Another way to deal with them is to sell them. These cars can no longer be used on the road, but they can be used for other purposes. Some people like to collect abandoned vehicles, some crews use abandoned vehicles to shoot movies and TV series, and some have special purposes like Wang Bo.

Kidd's home is in Dunedin and he is very familiar with this coastal city. He acted as a guide and Uncle Bing drove directly to the processing center.

The car was driving on the coastal road. Wang Bo lowered the window and was greeted by a moist sea breeze, carrying the fragrance of spring flowers and plants, which was very comfortable.

Looking outside, a white and delicate beach appears in the field of vision. White seagulls circle and fly on the offshore sea. Clusters of trees are exuding greenery. The scenery is very beautiful.

Seeing the beach here, he remembered that he planned to build an artificial beach by the lake. There was no rush, it would only be used in the summer.

The Abandoned Vehicle Processing Center is located in a vacant lot on the outskirts of Dunedin, surrounded by barbed wire. There are two border collies tied at the door. They growl when a car approaches.

Wang Bo took the young man with him. Hearing the barking of the dog, the young man revealed his big head from the car window. He glanced coldly with his eyes. The two border collies immediately calmed down and quickly jumped back to the kennel. They only dared to poke their heads out to look out and did not dare to make any more noise. Call.

An old security guard with gray hair came out and asked, "What are you doing?"

Uncle Bing said: "We made an appointment with Manager Dax and wanted to buy a hundred cars."

The old security guard looked at them suspiciously, opened the door and let them in.

The so-called Manager Dax is actually the supervisor responsible for the cars entering and exiting the processing center, but because the cars are clearly priced for takeout, he can also make the final decision on sales.

After Wang Bo saw him, the two parties shook hands. Dax, who had short chestnut hair, said: "I'm very busy. You can choose yourselves. The price is what was said on the phone. Then fifty cars and fifty SUVs are Right? I'll give you a watch with parking spaces on it, remember to mark it clearly."

As expected, New Zealand is vast and sparsely populated. This treatment plant covers thousands of acres, which is three to four square miles, not much smaller than his ranch. There are various vehicles parked inside, probably tens of thousands of them at a glance!

"Damn it, it is indeed a country on wheels. There are so many abandoned cars in Nan Island alone?!" Wang Bo couldn't help but exclaimed.

Kidd shrugged and said: "This is not surprising. According to statistics, New Zealand has 4.7 million people and 5 million cars. Of course, there are many cars in the abandoned vehicle processing center in the South Island."

Wang Bo said: "I am mainly surprised. New Zealand does not have mandatory scrapping requirements for vehicles. Why are so many cars scrapped?"

Kidd smiled and said: "It's very simple. Although the government will not force cars to be scrapped, they have united insurance companies. It will cost more to insure old cars and heavily repaired cars. In this way, some old cars will need to be insured for several years. The extra money spent is enough to buy a better second-hand car, so what happens to these old cars if they don’t apply for scrapping?”

Wang Bo nodded. This is indeed the truth. The insurance premium for his Jeep is twice as high as that of the GT-R. It costs thousands of New Zealand dollars to scrap an old car every year. This is a scary figure. Many second-hand cars in New Zealand only cost 2,000 to 3,000 New Zealand dollars. piece.

The next step is to choose. Lao Wang's bad taste started to show up. All cars have the same unit price, so he will choose luxury cars.

BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, Jaguar, Lincoln, Land Rover, etc. He kept choosing and quickly picked out a lot.

Seeing this, Uncle Bing quickly grabbed him and said with a wry smile: "Boss, we bought these cars as props, not to drive them on the road. Why are you buying these luxury cars? Buy Japanese cars!"

"The luxury car is comfortable to look at even if it is parked at the training ground."

"But luxury cars are heavier and cost more. This is not necessary. Buy Japanese cars. Japanese cars are lighter and there are many famous brands, such as Lexus, Acura, etc. These cars also look good."

Wang Bo thought about it, this was the truth, but he still chose a luxury car. At most, a car weighing half a ton would cost one or two hundred yuan more, so why not choose a luxury car

During this period, he unexpectedly discovered a Ferrari FF. Although this car was not as expensive and rare as the FXX, it was still a super luxury car. He remembered that it would sell for five to six million in China.

This car was involved in a car accident, and the engine and gearbox were removed, leaving an empty shell. However, the interior is still very luxurious, and you can sit in it and try out the feeling of a Ferrari.

Wang Bo also chose this car. He asked Kidd to help him choose this kind of super luxury car, and he found out that the most precious one was the Maybach Zeppelin, which is also the oldest classic Maybach car.

Likewise, the car's gearbox and engine were gone, the tires were in tatters, and the interior was in disrepair. However, it was a former super luxury car, and it still had that style, so he bought it.

He originally wanted to pick 100 cars, but after a lot of picking, he picked 140 cars in total, which was 40% more. The total cost was 55,000 yuan, which was less than 400 yuan per car on average.

Almost all the engines and gearboxes of these cars had been removed, and some even had no tires. However, the ones Wang Bo selected were of relatively good quality, and Dax kept saying that he had made a profit.

Although Wang Bo is fanatical, it does not mean that he is stupid. He said funnyly: "These cars are useless, how can I make money?"

Dax shrugged and said, "But there are a lot of luxury cars in there, aren't there? Go back and polish and wax the models to make them for collection. It's definitely worth the price."

Wang Bo thought about it, he was really right! (.)
