MTL - Wall Street Legend-Chapter 17 Good start
Chapter 17 Good start
The old mobile phone received a call, and Ye Dongqing was refreshed when he heard the ringtone. He had never seen the number displayed on the screen.
It is not clear whether it is the old Mr. Sam who called. He coughed twice, deliberately thickened his neck after connecting, and imitated the British accent: "Hello?"
A voice came from the other end of the phone: "It's me, Sam Evans from Love Home Apartment. I heard that the Federal Taxation Service is investigating my financial situation? There must be some misunderstanding here, the tax that should be paid has never been less However, an accounting firm manages my funds and does my taxes for me."
It seems that old Mr. Sam has organized his language in advance, and he said such a long paragraph just after connecting, trying his best to keep himself out of the whole thing.
How could Ye Dongqing make his wish come true, and said with a smile: "Since you think so, then I will go to your place with my colleagues to check the account tomorrow, OK?
Ask your tenants when the time comes, and they will give me an accurate answer, but if there is something to be investigated, with my colleagues around, it will definitely not end well. I heard from my cousin that you already have cancer. I don't want a patient like you to face court proceedings. "
He didn't want to be overheard by the driver too much, so he handed the cash to the taxi driver shortly after getting in the car, signaling to get off at the side of the road.
"..."
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and Old Sam hadn't hung up yet, so he was probably weighing things up.
Since he was able to make a call, Ye Dongqing knew that this time he would probably be settled for him. If Old Sam hadn't evaded taxes, he wouldn't have ended up in the current situation. In the final analysis, he was still to blame for his lack of greed.
Just after getting out of the taxi, I heard the old man say, "I'm willing to give you 20,000 dollars and give up the investigation on me. It's a fair deal, isn't it? It's good for you and me."
Last time it was easy to extort a few watches, this time old Sam is also willing to obediently give the money. Ordinary residents of Manhattan may not be able to earn so much money after spending a whole year. This kind of no-cost transaction is indeed very profitable.
As long as she nods, Ye Dongqing can get 20,000 U.S. dollars, with nothing invested except a phone card.
However, his appetite was more than that, and he continued to speak: "No, no, sir, who do you think I am? Regarding the specific amount of tax evasion, I have already got an approximate figure, and that is not a small amount of money."
The implication is obvious, and he feels less.
Old Mr. Sam could hear it, his voice was a little annoyed and impatient: "Then what do you want to do, give me a number!"
Who would feel better if they were blackmailed?
Ye Dongqing didn't care, and said in a relaxed tone: "Mr. Evans, I'm here to help you. You should have made a will recently. Has anyone told you that the price of inheritance tax is very high?"
"Ok?"
"I have a way to help you solve this problem. You only need to pay a small price, including the building and the shady funds in your hands, to legally enter your children's bank accounts.
No need to hide anymore, they can spend that money openly, and still keep renting out your apartment building, and use the income to protect their own lives, or it will cost tens of millions of dollars, and give it to New York city hall for nothing, no one will Thank you for your dedication. "
By revealing the real purpose through the phone, compared with the commission income from helping money laundering and hiding funds, you can only earn a little money by direct extortion. If he got in a hurry, the other party might directly confess to the IRS that he had cancer anyway, and he didn't have a few months to live. Ye Dongqing had taken all of this into consideration.
He has talked about business countless times, and he has already mastered the skills. He didn't say how much money he could bring him, and he captured Old Sam's current needs in his words.
When death is approaching, how to achieve wealth inheritance at the least cost has become a very important thing.
The old Sam on the other end of the phone is not stupid. He was very interested in Ye Dongqing's words and asked, "So can you help me avoid taxes? Give my inheritance to my two daughters?"
"That's right, if you don't worry, I will launder a small amount of money for you first, and then continue to cooperate after the funds enter their account. I have helped many people do the same thing before, go ask someone about the king of money laundering in New York My nickname, everyone knows me."
Ye Dongqing continued to babble: "Mr. Walton, the founder of the Wal-Mart supermarket chain, passed away in April, and one of the inheritances was to be laundered by me. My clients also include the heirs of the Rockefeller family. Your assets will soon disappear. It can be washed clean, saving at least five million dollars!
Before that, you have to tell me the total amount of your real estate and cash, including money in the bank and untaxed cash, and I will tailor a tax avoidance plan for you. "
If he faced the real rich and social elites, he would definitely not use this rhetoric.
Feeling that old Sam's head is not that bright, so he borrowed the aura of the Walton family and the Rockefeller family to put gold on himself to make himself look more powerful.
There is no way to find the other party rashly, and to help the other party launder money, there is no prior contact, which means that Old Sam will inevitably be wary, and Ye Dongqing is trying to make him believe in herself.
Ye Dongqing, who was already famous at the time, was able to attract clients based on the accumulated reputation alone, but now he is just a kid who is still in high school.
I felt a little nervous, worried that what old Sam would say to refuse next time would pass me a big order, and I had to think of other ways to earn start-up capital.
But it's not bad, even if it fails, it shouldn't be difficult to extort tens of thousands of dollars, which can be regarded as a consolation prize.
Old Sam didn’t say how much money he had hidden, but after thinking for a while, he asked him: “If, I mean, if I give you 10,000 dollars, how much of it will go into my daughter’s account?”
This is a good sign, indicating that the old man is interested. Ye Dongqing replied decisively: "It's only about seven thousand dollars. The larger the amount, the lower the cost of money laundering. If there is one million, I can give her seventy-five dollars." Ten thousand U.S. dollars."
He still has a dark heart. Money laundering does not require much investment. He wants to make more money from it. The main thing is to bully old Sam who doesn't understand the market.
Old Sam usually uses cash transactions to pay less taxes. How can he know how much money laundering usually takes? He only knows that after the tax-free quota is used up, the remaining money needs to pay a tax of up to 55%, which means that more than half of it will go to the federal government. In the fiscal account of the tax office.
The 25% commission is an acceptable figure in his eyes, and it is more cost-effective than going through legal channels. After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively said: "Well, I will give you 30,000 US dollars first, and if you prove it This method is feasible, so that my daughters can get clean money smoothly, and I will give you more in the future."
30,000 US dollars, the old man was prepared to be blackmailed, so he didn't feel bad for such a small amount of money.
Ye Dongqing smiled after listening: "I will tell you where to put the money, wait for my notification, some things need to be prepared first, such as their social security numbers and bank card accounts..."
