Chapter 818 A special gold coin that rose dozens of times as soon as it appeared
For Prime Minister Richard and other cabinet members, the first shipment of gold from Mars is worth more than just gold, and even if they don't understand it, they will be reminded by economic professionals.
But as soon as Richard saw William, he offered not to pay for gold, but for cash.
William would have been a fool if he hadn't come to his senses at this point.
But he doesn't admire Richard like some reporters in his heart.
It's actually a very simple arithmetic problem.
In their opinion, instead of arguing with William over 20 tons of gold coins that do not know how long it will take to appreciate,
It is better to have a clear goal from the beginning and strive for 120 tons a month and 1,440 tons of gold a year.
Besides, William has the final say on how to pay taxes, and if he wants to pay taxes in pounds, then no one can force him to pay gold.
But it's true that William has a little bit of a good impression of Richard at the moment.
After all, no one wants to cooperate with scheming and short-sighted people.
At the end of the press conference, William stepped down from the podium and asked his personal lawyer Anthony in the first sentence,
"This time I paid my taxes in cash, and then the gold that came back from Mars after that, did I have to pay in cash as well?"
"Ah", Anthony thought silently, and then discussed with his lawyer for a moment before replying,
"Boss, as long as England agrees, then legally, you want to pay taxes with gold instead of cash, of course no problem.
But if they don't agree, there will be a lot of trouble, after all, gold is no longer legal tender."
After Anthony finished speaking, Abigail naturally hugged William's arm and said confidently,
"Don't worry, my dear, if they don't agree, we'll stop selling gold and switch to other precious metals, and when we sell them, we'll wait until the next year's tax deadline.
Or, as you said, just stop the ship to Mars.
Anyway, our family is not short of money, and we will stop for three months to see if we can't bear it first, or if the government of England can't bear the opposition of the people first."
When Abigail said this, Anthony and his team of lawyers didn't know how to reply.
Wilson on the side also felt that it would be better to be honest when facing Abigail in the future.
He whispered to William, "There is still a lot of time before the evening banquet, or we will go and see Viscount Charles first."
"Hehe, what are you going to do?" William teased with a smile, "When you see the bloody scene, you may think about some personal rights, or vomit."
"I," Wilson argued with a red face as William ridiculed Wilson the most, "how is it possible, I'm not that vulnerable, and there is such a thing as interrogation, please can you say it alone in private."
"Hehe, you won't say it, will Anthony be too talkative?"
Seeing William looking at him, Anthony shook his head with a smile and said, "Boss, my team and I are your personal lawyer team, even if you want to do something,
We will only solemnly advise you and tell you step by step, how to do it so that it will not break the law.
As for the rest, that's the police's business."
"Haha, I like you Anthony".
As soon as I was happy, I thought about rewarding some gold coins I made.
But before his hand reached into his pocket, it suddenly occurred to me that he had taken the opportunity of the press conference to announce the gold coin plan, but without the physical object, the effect of the publicity would be greatly reduced.
And if you want to attract the attention of the people, it is better to take out the gold coins with particularity, so that it is easier to speculate.
Pretending to reach into his pocket, he took out ten gold coins that he had been playing with and weighing 100 grams.
He deliberately took it in his hand and turned it upside down, making a tinkling sound, which quickly attracted the attention of many people around.
"Send some gadgets to you and your men".
"Ding Ding Ding",
There was a sound of gold coins striking from Anthony's outstretched palm, and all the people who had not yet left approached and gathered around.
"Devon Hill gold?"
Some people immediately recognized the gram instead of the usual ounce gold coin.
But after Anthony took out five of them and divided one among his five men, he took the remaining five gold coins without blushing and glanced at the light a few times.
However, everyone found that these gold coins were very different from the Devon Hill gold coins that had been circulated before.
"This is a Mars commemorative coin, which I made myself with simple instruments on Mars when I was bored, if you are not short of money, keep it yourself, there should be a good appreciation space."
After William finished speaking, everyone understood that this was probably the smallest amount of Martian gold coins in existence.
Immediately, a reporter who looked to be in his fifties asked Anton's lawyer, "How about I pay 10,000 dollars for the gold coins in your hand?"
"Not very good", the lawyer, who looked to be in his thirties, put the gold coins directly into his inner pocket and said to the reporter silently, "idiot".
Everyone present understood that if the number of this kind of gold coins made by William himself was really small,
Take it out for auction, let alone 10,000 US dollars, even if you bid 50,000 yuan, there must be enthusiastic fans of William who bought it on the spot.
If the pattern on the coin is more special, the value will increase even more.
Therefore, even if he was ridiculed, this reporter did not mean to be angry, but looked at the gold coin in Anton's hand and asked with a smile,
"Let's see, right?
Anthony looked directly at William, who shrugged his shoulders.
This kind of gold coin is all pure gold coins without dazzling gold, no matter how special it is, it is only 100,000 US dollars in the sky, and it is impossible to get hundreds of thousands, millions, not dozens, hundreds of years.
So, what would happen to these gold coins, William didn't care at all.
Seeing that William had no objection, Anthony put a gold coin in the reporter's hand,
The people who were close to the reporter immediately gathered around, and soon someone exclaimed, "God, this is not a Devon Hill gold coin."
I saw that the obverse of the gold coin was not William's head, but Mount Olympus.
On the reverse side is not the deer-headed family emblem of the Devon Hill family, but the golden canyon of Mars.
At this time, everyone immediately understood that these ten gold coins were definitely authentic Martian gold coins.
"$20,000, Mr. Anthony, $20,000 each."
Anthony ignored the reporter who was bidding again, and took back the gold coins and put them away.
He didn't lack 20,000 or 100,000 US dollars, so an idiot would sell the gold coins given by his boss at a high price in front of William in less than ten minutes.
If that's the case, it's not taking advantage, it's an idiot who has come home.
Besides, if you want to succeed with only 20,000 yuan, you really take everyone for a fool.
Therefore, after thinking for a while, the middle-aged reporter, who also understood this truth, could only look at William.
I hope to be able to pick up one from William, the main owner.
