American Tax Officer-Chapter 604 - 304: The Debate Over David’s Entry into the Headquarters_2

Chapter 604: Chapter 304: The Debate Over David’s Entry into the Headquarters_2

“”That’s right, not only should the San Jose region cooperate, but from now on, whenever a domain’s taxation is involved, all the major regions should cooperate with David!”

“…”

Some higher-ups who didn’t understand the situation were still speaking out for David.

However, Donald remained unmoved and calmly said, “Cooperation is all well and good, but our taxation authority also has its rules and regulations. The rules clearly state that the director of a regional taxation authority can only be responsible for their own region’s affairs. To intervene in another region’s affairs, you must obtain the consent of that region’s director. If they don’t agree, there’s nothing you can do about it…”

Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene, including Obadiah, Consultant Welton Heng, and Rohan, looked at Donald with a puzzled and incomprehensible gaze.

What’s going on with you, you old geezer?

In the past, if anyone spoke a word against David, you’d immediately jump up and argue back. Now, why are you instead criticizing David at every turn?

They didn’t remain confused for long, as Donald’s next statement suddenly enlightened everyone present.

“That’s why, I think what David just said is quite right. Los Angeles has been somewhat limiting his potential. If he were one of us at headquarters, then no matter what, Chicago or San Jose, they would all have to obey and cooperate!”

After Donald finished speaking, a barely noticeable smile appeared at the corner of David’s mouth.

Indeed, his real purpose for previously complaining about investigating companies like Ethereum and USDT, which had caused trouble and displeasure, was actually to pressure the high-ranking officials present to quickly arrange for his transfer to headquarters.

Donald, having been confidant with him for so long, obviously also understood his intent and immediately played along.

And at this moment, everyone present had their awakening as well.

So, you, old Donald, after all this roundabout talk, your intention was to get David transferred to headquarters!

“Ahem…”

Obadiah coughed to ease the atmosphere and spoke up, “There seems to be some truth to this. According to the rules of our taxation authority, a regional director indeed should not interfere with the affairs of another region, but if David were to join us at headquarters, then in the future, when dealing with tax issues of companies like USDT and Ethereum, it wouldn’t be interfering with other regions’ affairs, but instead, he would have the authority to directly order the cooperation of all regions!”

After these words, the room fell silent, but many high-ranking officials were exchanging glances with each other.

After a long pause, Rohan couldn’t sit still any longer. He stood up and said, “I think this is inappropriate. David has risen from an Inspector to the position of Los Angeles director in just over half a year. This is unprecedented in the history of our taxation authority. If he were to be promoted to headquarters now, it would make everyone in our taxation system anxious and restless.”

“I support Vice Director Rohan’s view. Director David certainly has made many contributions, and based on those alone he would indeed deserve a promotion to headquarters, but still, one should wait and gain a bit more seniority before moving to headquarters prematurely.”

“I disagree with Vice Director Rohan’s opinion. As everyone knows, a former president of America didn’t even have political experience before running for office, and Director David has at least spent several years working in our taxation authority. What seniority does he still need to gain?”

“That’s right, with the contributions that David has made to our taxation authority, if he’s not transferred to headquarters, I’m afraid the taxpayers themselves won’t stand for it!”

“…”

The debate over whether David should be transferred to headquarters became intensely heated on the spot.

“Alright, enough!”

Obadiah interrupted impatiently, then turned to Consultant Welton Heng, asking, “Consultant Welton Heng, what’s your opinion on this matter?”

“This matter seems a bit rushed. I believe we should consider it more thoroughly.”

Consultant Welton Heng’s words appeared to be noncommittal, but the undertone of his speech, which seemed to favour not transferring David to headquarters just yet, was picked up by many present.

His leaning against transferring David to headquarters wasn’t just because of the Brown Soros matter; it was actually quite simple.

The main reason was that David currently had significant conflict with Freemasonry, and if they were to transfer him to headquarters at this juncture, it would certainly cause dissatisfaction within that group.

To avoid a direct conflict between the taxation authority and Freemasonry, he believed it necessary to postpone this action.

“What if we encounter cases involving another jurisdiction in the future?”

“That’s simple. If Director David uncovers any issues involving out-of-state taxes next time, he can give us a call. We, the headquarters, will authorize it. That way, no other local directors will have objections.”

Obadiah frowned slightly, but due to Welton Heng’s status as chief consultant, he couldn’t directly dissent and could only respond, “Alright, then this matter isn’t so urgent. We can study it slowly.”

In the midst of conversation and debate among the senior officials, David hadn’t had a chance to interject. Now, hearing that the matter of his transfer to headquarters hadn’t been resolved, he felt a tinge of disappointment.

In the time that followed, Obadiah and others briefed David on some general policies of the headquarters and sought his opinions before concluding the work report.

After the meeting, Donald took David back to his office and immediately tried to console him, “Your move to the headquarters is just a matter of time. There’s no need to rush. Besides, I’ll start applying pressure over the next few days and will ensure the matter of your transfer to headquarters is settled as quickly as possible.”

“Understood…”

David acknowledged with a response.

“Oh, by the way, you’ve heard of America’s four great families, haven’t you?”

“In America, it would be hard to find someone who hasn’t. What about the four great families?”

The four great families of America should, more strictly speaking, be called the Four Great Onsager Families.

These families are the Kennedy Family, the Roosevelt Family, the Bush Family, and the Adams Family.

The reason these families are known as the great families of America, aside from their tremendous influence, is that each has produced a President!

The Kennedy Family needs no mention.

Regarding the Roosevelt Family, they had two Presidents, one of whom, the younger Roosevelt, was not only the only President of America to serve four terms but was also hailed as one of America’s greatest presidents, alongside Lincoln and Washington.

The Bush Family has also produced two Presidents.

The history of the Bush Family is long, tracing back to King Henry III of England, making them a truly distinguished and storied American family.

Moreover, in modern America, the rise of the Bush Family can be seen as a microcosm of America’s rise to power, so their influence needs no further elaboration.

As for the Adams Family.

Even today, in terms of notoriety, this family doesn’t compare to the Bush, Roosevelt, or Kennedy families.

But in terms of true strength, this family, which has kept a low profile in recent years, is definitely at the top of the hierarchy.

In the upper echelons of America, this family has been dubbed ‘the First Dynasty.’

The reason is quite simple.

John Adams and John Quincy Adams, a father and son from this family, respectively served as America’s second and sixth Presidents.

The Adams Family is inextricably linked to America’s history.

A family member, Samuel Adams, personally took part in the American Revolution and its organization.

John Adams was one of the four drafters of the American “Declaration of Independence.”

Thus, many people refer to the Adams Family as “the First Dynasty of American history.”

Because the only individuals in the same league with them are Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, and the other founding fathers of America.
