The security check process for checked luggage at the airport is different from the security check process for carry-on luggage.
Carry-on baggage is carried by the guest through the security check, while checked baggage is transferred to a special place for security check via a conveyor belt after completing the check-in and check-in procedures.
At this time, Ma Lan still had no idea what was going to happen next.
After she checked in both suitcases, she took her boarding pass and headed to the security checkpoint.
The woman who was watching her nearby felt relieved and immediately stood up and walked out of the airport after seeing her check-in and her suitcase being sent away by the conveyor belt.
Carrying her Hermès, Ma Lan went to the security check channel and after showing her first-class boarding pass, she immediately enjoyed the warm service of the staff.
While others were still waiting in long lines for security check, Ma Lan quickly completed the security check and then found a nearby first-class lounge to rest.
At the same time, the two suitcases she checked in were waiting in line to pass through the airport's security check machine one by one.
During this process, if no abnormalities are found, the luggage will be released directly and put on the passenger's flight. Once any abnormalities are found in the luggage, customs border inspectors will immediately unpack and inspect the luggage.
Generally speaking, contraband that has been carefully concealed is basically very concealable. In addition, leaving the country is far less risky than entering the country, so this link is relatively relaxed, and criminals at least have
There is a 50% chance of winning and successfully passing the exit security check.
However, the entry security check after landing will be much stricter, because many countries and regions have strict entry standards, and some countries do not even allow any fresh fruit to be carried, even if the fruit brought by the passengers on the plane is not finished when they land.
If there is an apple left, and it is discovered by the border inspection, a heavy fine will be imposed.
Therefore, the biggest test is actually the entry process.
At this stage, the chance of winning will plummet to only about 30%.
Combined with the 50% in the first stage, the approximate overall pass rate is actually around 15%.
Precisely because the success rate is very low, the price of this new type of contraband in East Asia is surprisingly high, with a single gram selling for more than two thousand U.S. dollars. It is an exclusive product for the super rich.
As long as Ma Lan can successfully land in Hong Kong this time and pass the border inspection, the contraband she is carrying will be worth more than 10 million US dollars.
At this time, Ma Lan was sitting in the luxurious first-class lounge, drinking coffee, taking photos and posting on Moments.
Her caption read: "I'm about to leave for home, but I'm still a little bit reluctant to leave. My friend's private jet is being maintained by Gulfstream. I have no choice but to make myself miserable and take a first-class seat on an ordinary civil airliner."
After editing her circle of friends, she did not forget to specifically block Ye Chen, Xiao Churan and Xiao Changkun.
After sending the message to Moments, she leisurely sent a video call to Xiao Churan.
At this time, Ye Chen and Xiao Churan had already driven away from New York and began to return to Providence.
Xiao Churan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, connected to the video sent by his mother and asked: "Mom, have you boarded the plane?"
"Not yet." Ma Lan said with a smile: "I guess it will take a while to board the plane. I'm in the first-class lounge!"
Xiao Churan reminded: "Then you must pay attention to the time and don't affect boarding. Boarding starts half an hour before departure time. Get there early to avoid being late and rushing on your way."
Ma Lan said disdainfully: "Tch, what are you afraid of? I'm a distinguished first-class passenger. If I hadn't boarded the plane, he wouldn't have dared to take off if I gave him the courage. Besides, they would definitely call my name through the radio.
Remind me to board the plane. It won’t be too late to leave by then.”
Xiao Churan said helplessly: "Mom, it can be solved in an orderly manner ten or twenty minutes in advance, why do you want to cause trouble to others?"
Ma Lan hummed and said, "Silly girl, you know we spent this much money on our air ticket? Otherwise, why would our air ticket be several times more expensive than others? It's all right to cause him trouble."
Xiao Churan only felt a headache.
Sometimes, she felt that she and her mother were in two different worlds and could not find the same communication frequency at all.
Moreover, she also knows that her mother has very good ideas. Once she has decided on a certain plan, nothing anyone can say can change her decision.
So Xiao Churan said no more and just reminded: "Then when you get on the plane, you must tell me before the plane takes off, so that I can rest assured."
Ma Lan smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I understand. You don't have to worry about it. Tell my good son-in-law to be safe when driving. I'll hang up first."
With that said, Ma Lan directly hung up the video.
After the video ended, Ma Lan immediately went to check the Moments she had just posted, which made her furious again.
Just like the circle of friends she posted when she took a private plane last time, no one liked her at all.
Ma Lan couldn't help but cursed and muttered: "These people just can't see others living better than him! It's boring, it's really boring!"
Just as she was talking, someone suddenly liked it in her circle of friends. Ma Lan almost pissed her off when she saw it.
Because the person who liked it is Qian Hongyan again.
With so many WeChat friends, Qian Hongyan’s likes are the least valuable in Ma Lan’s eyes.
While he was depressed, Qian Hongyan suddenly sent a video call. Ma Lan couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. At this moment, she even wanted to hang up the video.
However, she quickly changed her mind: "Anyway, if you don't pretend to be unhappy today, then it's the same as anyone else."
So, he pressed the answer button, looked at Qian Hongyan on the other end of the video, and said with a fake smile: "Oh Hongyan, what are you doing?"
Qian Hongyan said hurriedly: "Sister Lan, I just got up. Didn't I see in your circle of friends that you are going back to China? So I sent you a video greeting."
Ma Lan asked in surprise: "It's almost night, and you just got up?"
Qian Hongyan said hurriedly: "Oh, Sister Lan, you are such a noble person and forgetful about things. You forgot that we are jet lag and it is still morning here!"
Ma Lan suddenly realized, nodded and murmured: "How could I forget this... No wonder no one in the circle of friends gave me likes, everyone must be sleeping..."
Qian Hongyan smiled flatteringly and said: "Sister Lan, when will your flight arrive? When will you arrive in Jinling?"
Ma Lan said with a proud look on her face: "The plane will take off in about an hour, but I won't go back to Jinling yet."
"Ah?" Qian Hongyan couldn't hide her disappointment and asked her: "Where will you go if you don't go back to Jinling?"
Ma Lan said very proudly: "The flight ticket Ye Chen booked for me happened to be a first-class flight to Hong Kong Island with a connecting flight. I went to Hong Kong Island to play for a few days. It just so happened that I have a good sister who kept inviting me to Hong Kong Island to visit her.
Staying at Shi Xundao's villa for a few days is such a warm invitation."
Qian Hongyan said with great envy: "Oh my god, Sister Lan! It has to be you! I know everyone! You, a good sister, are the friends with private jets that you call in your circle of friends, right?"
"Yes." Ma Lan was praised by Qian Hongyan, and her mood immediately lifted a lot. She said with a smile: "She is really powerful. She is worth billions of dollars. I heard that it is as good as our domestic drinks."
The king is still a distant relative!"
As he said that, Ma Lan was already a little carried away and couldn't help but show off: "Hey, do you know how rich this friend of mine is? He bought three Raelfas in one go and said he would give me one as a gift when the time comes!"
