Chapter 1,725: Join forces with powerful forces to learn from each other's strengths and offset weaknesses
The reason why today's tomb robbery gangs are extremely destructive is not only their increasingly higher professional level, but also has a lot to do with their professional division of labor.
A professional team with a clear structure and each performing its own duties will naturally increase its combat effectiveness exponentially.
According to information provided by the Xishan police, today's tomb robbery gangs have clear internal rights and responsibilities, and can basically be divided into four parts: Zhiguo, Zhangyan, Legs and Xiaku.
The so-called supporter can be understood as the person in charge of a tomb robbing gang.
He is like a contractor on a construction site or a producer on a film crew. He is responsible for building a professional team of tomb robbers. His main job is to recruit personnel and coordinate internal relationships.
In a sense, Zhi Guo is a bit like the financial backer behind a tomb robbing gang.
He needs to be responsible for all expenses incurred during the tomb robbing process, including the purchase of equipment and remuneration of personnel.
As the donor, Zhiguo does not need to personally participate in the actual actions of searching for the tomb and placing the tomb, but only needs to provide logistical support.
Because they bear the basic cost of the entire tomb robbing activity, they can get 20% to 30% of the profit after completing the transaction of funerary objects.
The vast land of China is dotted with various types of tombs.
Only in this way can there be a time lag with the official investigation operation, which also requires us to establish contact with each other.
In order to avoid being exposed, domestic grave robbing gangs have established a very secretive circle.
"Legs" are also replaceable in the team. As the person in charge of the tomb robbery site, we are less likely to direct others and do a lot of things ourselves.
"Shangku" works the least, but the income is low, and there are no dividends until the work is completed.
As long as it can bring endless benefits, not many people will participate in it, and they will take risks without hesitation.
And if something like that only happened once, it would rarely be caught, so it would not be exposed.
There are not even a few "legs" from Nanhe Qi County and Xishan Linfen Quwo County.
The stolen goods will definitely be recovered, and even if the person is arrested, it will be difficult to convict him.
To protect themselves from danger, both Palm Eyes and Zhi Guo were hidden in front of the curtain. From the time they went to the scene of tomb robbery, it was actually "Legs" who was in charge of directing.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the source-changing app, huanyuanapp, that is used by all chasing bugs.]
Such a large circle makes it easier for us to move around the country, and it is possible for us to be exposed even if we stay in one place for a long time.
We are often local farmers hired by the gang, or newcomers to the industry.
Not only can we find hidden tombs based on knowledge related to history, Feng Shui and geology, but we can also appreciate the cultural relics and determine the true value of Hanhu's burial objects.
However, after many large-scale tomb robbing trends in history, it is extremely difficult to find a suitable tomb even in provinces like Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi that have a large number of underground cultural relics.
Moreover, before the circle is established, as long as a team detects the wrong location of a certain tomb site, there will be no shortage of tomb robber gangs swarming there.
What makes the police say something is that before such a circle was established, the profit chain of cultural relic theft was gradually improved, and the efficiency of selling stolen goods by tomb robbery gangs in various places was increasing exponentially.
Recently, the Huainan police arrested a small group of tomb robbers. One of the tomb robbers confessed that we do not have many WeChat groups for "insiders".
The Huainan police cracked down on this tomb robber, except for a small number of locals in its gang.
Those who actually participated in the tomb removal and excavation work were actually the lowest level of the entire tomb robbing gang, and they were not the "Shang Ku".
The tomb robber Yang Bin mentioned later, who has extremely weak professional ability, is not the mastermind of his team.
Precisely because that kind of profit chain can run smoothly, it has become almost possible to completely eliminate the crime of tomb robbing.
Some small tomb groups can be solved by a single team, and only a "weak and weak alliance" can solve the problems encountered in the process.
In fact, if you think about it, with the hard work of studying Feng Shui, history, geology and other knowledge, I would have passed the elementary school a long time ago, and I would have been able to find a decent job.
No one would even regard being in jail as a rare opportunity to recuperate and seize every moment to read books on history, Feng Shui and geology to accumulate knowledge for previous tomb robberies.
And that person has what he calls palm-eyes and is the core member of the team.
Therefore, an excellent tomb robbery team must have someone who can grasp the information of the tomb and help the team quickly locate it.
Those people are divided into the following occupations: stepping on the spot, looking out for the wind, digging holes, installing blast holes, and finding treasures. We complete the work of illegal excavation based on our cooperation.
Without the nearly professional division of labor, the operational efficiency of tomb robbery gangs will be significantly improved, and the distribution of benefits will be clearer, which will in disguise increase the difficulty of detection.
Those people cannot be regarded as engineers of the tomb robbing team. We have mastered the most practical tomb raiding technology and are quite proficient in various types of equipment.
And it is almost inevitable for such a person to embark on a criminal journey again before serving his sentence.
With the advancement of modernization and the explosion of information, coupled with the convenience of communication and powerful equipment, the damage caused by those people to the ancient tombs has become even greater.
In the process of tomb robbing, the "shangku" involved in the excavation also need to have a clear division of labor in order to achieve the worst effect.
Various signs now indicate that the domestic cultural relic theft circle has not yet developed very small.
Therefore, before the tomb robbery is successful, I cannot take away the extremely small number of benefits.
At the same time, Zhang Yan is also the most well-connected member of the tomb robbery team, and we often don’t have a sales channel of our own.
Moreover, before the tomb robbers form a nationwide linkage, it will not be conducive for us to "learn from each other's strengths and offset our weaknesses" in the process of communication and cooperation and learn from each other's excellent techniques in tomb robbing.
Moreover, when the tomb robber gang disposes of their stolen goods, they must retreat far away from the place where they committed the crime.
Before digging up worthless funerary objects, the stolen goods can be sold off in just a few days and the cultural relics can be successfully sent to the country.
Our internal division of roles is becoming increasingly clear, and the stability of hierarchical divisions is gradually improving.
Officials from all over the country have found no similar findings. Most of the people who were arrested for tomb robbing never thought about reflecting on their past before being imprisoned, but instead quietly planned their last action before being released from prison.
Before these people formed a group, they effectively coordinated the country's tomb robbing resources, and the exchange of information between them made arrests across provinces much more complicated.
Before the tomb is successfully robbed, the tomb cannot be sent out through specific channels by contacting relevant personnel.
The intensity of crackdowns on such crimes has remained at a low level, and the risk of tomb robbing is definitely increasing day by day.
If you don’t have that kind of ability, why bother risking countless others and embarking on the road of illegal crime? As the saying goes, "The devil is as low as the devil." Although the professionalism of the tomb robber gangs is getting weaker and weaker, the official
The ability to do business is also not what it used to be.
That kind of person has mastered the most hard-core knowledge, and there is absolutely no substitute.
Before I inquired, I found out that the reason why we colluded together was because the blasting technology mastered by the locals in Huainan was relatively crude, and they needed "professionals" to make up for the shortcomings.
