Chapter 17: A good start
When the old mobile phone received a call, Ye Dongqing was in good spirits when he heard the ringtone, and he had never seen the number displayed on the screen.
It wasn't clear if old Mr. Sam was calling, he coughed lightly twice, deliberately thickened his neck after connecting, and imitated the British accent and said, "Hello?"
A voice came from the other end of the line: "It's me, Sam Evans from the Love Family Apartment." I heard that the Federal Tax Service is investigating my finances? There must be some misunderstanding here, the tax that should be paid is never less, and an accounting firm helps me manage my money and file my taxes. ”
It seemed that old Mr. Sam had already organized his language in advance, and as soon as he got through, he said such a long sentence, trying his best to get rid of the whole thing.
How could Ye Dongqing let him get his wish, and told with a smile in his tone: "Since you think so, then I will go to you with my colleagues tomorrow to check the accounts, OK?"
When the time comes, ask your tenants, and they will give me an accurate answer, but if something is investigated, with my colleagues here, it will definitely not end well. I heard my cousin say that you have cancer, and I don't want a patient like you to face a court trial. ”
Not wanting to be overheard by the driver, he handed the cash to the taxi driver and motioned to get off the side of the road shortly after he got into the car.
“......”
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and Old Sam hadn't hung up yet, probably weighing it.
Since he was able to call, Ye Dongqing understood that most of the time he would have eaten him, if Old Sam didn't evade taxes, he would naturally not end up in the field like he is now, and in the final analysis, he still blames himself for his lack of greed.
As soon as I got out of the taxi, I heard the old man say, "I'm willing to give you 20,000 dollars, give up the investigation of me, it's a fair deal, isn't it, it's good for you and me." ”
Last time, I easily extorted a few watches, and this time Old Sam was willing to give money obediently, and ordinary residents of Manhattan may not be able to make so much money if it takes a whole year, and the benefits of such cost-free trading are indeed high.
As long as he nodded, Ye Dongqing could get 20,000 US dollars, and he didn't have any investment except for a phone card.
However, his appetite was more than just a little bit, and he continued: "No, no, sir, what do you think of me? As for the specific amount of tax evasion, I have obtained an approximate figure, which is not a small amount of money. ”
The implication was obvious, he felt that it was less.
Old Mr. Sam heard this, and his voice was a little annoyed and impatient: "Then what do you want, give me a number!"
Who would be okay 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, did anyone tell you that the cost of inheritance tax is very high?"
"Huh?"
"I have a way to help you solve this problem, and for a small price, including the building and the funds you don't have enough money in your hands, you can legally get into your children's bank accounts.
No need to hide, they can spend that money openly, and they can continue to rent out your apartment building and use their income to support their own lives, or the cost will be tens of millions of dollars, and no one will thank you for your efforts. ”
Revealing the true purpose over the phone can only make a few dollars by direct extortion compared to the commission income from helping to launder money and hiding funds. If you are in a hurry, the other party may confess directly to the IRS, anyway, she has cancer and does not have a few months to live, and Ye Dongqing has taken these into account.
He had talked about business countless times, he had already mastered the skills, and he did not say how much money he could bring himself, and his words captured the needs of old Sam at the moment.
When death is approaching, how to achieve wealth inheritance at the least cost has become a very important matter.
The old Sam on the other end of the phone was not stupid, he was very interested in Ye Dongqing's words, and asked, "So you can help me avoid taxes? Give my inheritance to my two daughters?"
"That's it, that's right, if you don't worry, I'll help you launder a small amount of money first, and wait until the funds enter their account before continuing to cooperate. I've done the same thing for a lot of people in the past, and if you ask someone about the nickname of the New York Money Laundering King, everyone knows about me. ”
Ye Dongqing continued to talk nonsense: "Mr. Walton, who founded the Wal-Mart supermarket chain brand in April, passed away, and one of the inheritances is laundered by me, and my customers are the heirs of the Rockefeller family, your assets can be washed away soon, saving at least five million dollars!"
Before you do that, tell me how much real estate and cash you have, including money in the bank and untaxed cash, and I'll work out a tax avoidance plan for you. ”
If he faced the real rich and social elites, he would definitely not use this set of rhetoric.
felt that Old Sam's head was not so 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, he boldly found the other party and wanted to help the other party launder money, without any contact in advance, which means that old Sam will inevitably be wary, and Ye Dongqing is trying to make him believe in himself.
Ye Dongqing, who had already become famous, could win customers just by relying on the credibility he had accumulated, but now he was just a hairy boy who was still in high school.
I was a little nervous, worried that if Old Sam said something to refuse next, a big order would pass by him, and he would have to find 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 was hiding, but after a short thought, he asked him, "If, I mean, if I give you $10,000, how much will it get into my daughter's account?"
This is a good sign, indicating that the old man is interested, Ye Dongqing replied decisively: "Only about seven thousand dollars, the larger the amount, the lower the cost of money laundering and sharing, if there is one million, I can give her seven hundred thousand dollars." ”
His heart is still a little darker, money laundering does not require much investment, he wants to make more money from it, mainly to bully old Sam for not understanding the market.
Old Sam usually uses cash transactions to pay less taxes, where will he know how much is the general money laundering commission, only know that after the tax exemption is used up, the remaining money needs to pay up to 55% tax, which is equivalent to more than half will go into the financial account of the Federal Tax Service.
Twenty-five percent of the commission is an acceptable figure in his eyes, which is better than going through legal channels, and he hesitated for a moment again, and said tentatively: "In this way, I will give you 30,000 US dollars first, and if you prove that this method is feasible, so that my daughters can get clean money smoothly, I will give you more later." ”
30,000 US dollars, the old man was originally ready to be blackmailed, and he didn't feel sorry for such a little money.
Ye Dongqing smiled at the corner of his mouth after hearing this: "I will tell you where to put the money, wait for me to inform you, there are some things to prepare first, such as their social security number and bank card account ......"
