Money laundering is a technical job. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Money laundering refers to the act of disguising and concealing the source and nature of illegal gains and the proceeds generated by various means to make them formally legitimized.
This also explains why Gould attaches great importance to the lottery, after all, the financial statements of private companies can be falsified, for example, Gould issued lottery tickets in New York, even a lottery ticket could not be sold, and Gould could also falsify financial statements to claim that his company sold five million dollars, or ten million dollars, so this part of the money became legal income.
Even if Gould is shameless enough to blow up the lottery revenue to $200 million, there is no way to investigate this kind of thing anyway.
In this way, the lottery is not only meaningful to Gould, but also to Able and Burnside, and even to all the corrupt officials in the U.S. government.
No wonder Li Mu didn't want lottery dividends, Able and Burnside introduced hundreds of thousands of dollars of business to Li Mu when they changed hands!
Thinking about this, Li Mu stopped asking, and hid the topic with Abel after a haha, and didn't dwell on the lottery ticket-
It seems that Will and President Grant had a good conversation, and it was not until after dinner that Will returned from the Presidential Building.
Seeing Li Mu, Will glanced at Li Mu mysteriously, and then took Li Mu up to the rooftop of the Grand Cross Hotel.
After going up to the rooftop, Will didn't forget to let Yan Hu and Yan Shun guard the entrance, and then came to the side away from Yan Hu and Yan Shun with Li Mu.
Li Mu couldn't help but be curious when he saw Will's style: "How is it?" β
"Hehe-he-" Will looked around for a while, and then he smiled sneeringly: "Good thing, hurry up and pack up, let's go back to Springfield tomorrow." β
"Isn't Tiger going to fight the French?" Li Mu didn't know what to do.
Yan Hu won two firsts in the National Shooting Competition, and was supposed to compete with the French.
In fact, it didn't take long for the match against the French to take place on the first day of the new year, on January 1, 1873, and there were only three days left.
"Tiger can stay, but we have to go first, this time George's son of a bitch and his cheap brother-in-law will be unlucky, our good days are coming." Will is confident and ready to go back to Springfield to make a big move.
"What's going on?" Li Mu didn't quite understand that George was just a chief of the Springfield City Police Department, and such a small person should not be able to enter Grant's eyes.
"Hmph-" Will smiled grimly, and the standard skin smiled without smiling: "This time it was not George's son of a bitch who was raised, but George's brother-in-law Amis, you know that Amis is a shareholder of the Union Pacific Railroad, about five or six years ago, Amis formed a Mobile Credit Company, and then this bitch raised the Mobile Credit Company to undertake part of the construction of the Pacific Railroad from the Union Pacific Railroad, Union Pacific Railroad and the federal government paid Mobile Credit for the $94 million project, and guess what, now that there's evidence that Mobile Credit actually invested less than $50 million on the project, where does the rest of the money go? β
Amis is George's brother-in-law, mayor of Springfield, a Massachusetts congressman, and even a deputy to Congress.
No wonder Will broke the jar when he faced George, George had such a brother-in-law, and Will really had no chance of winning.
"Wait -- you're saying that George's brother-in-law may be involved in a $44 million crime?" Li Mu feels a little bad, 44 million, this is not a small amount, can Mills do it alone?
Don't be funny, Mills alone doesn't have that much energy, maybe it's another nest case, and it involves the federal government, the U.S. Congress, and even President Grant himself.
If that's the case, Li Mu and Will rashly get involved in it, undoubtedly killing themselves, and they don't know how they died.
"Maybe it's moreβ" Will didn't sense the crisis, and now his mind was full of excitement.
"So you think this is something we can meddle in? Who gave you the order? Li Mu was speechless, once again doubting Will's ability, if Will started his political career like this, then Li Mu had better draw a line with Will as soon as possible, so as not to be dragged down by Will in the future.
"Hehe-he-I wouldn't have dared to, but that's what Mr. President meant." Will slowly unraveled the mystery, and it seemed that he was really fearless.
"Mr. President-Will, be sober, do you think Mr. President is innocent in this matter?" Based on Li Mu's understanding of Able, Li Mu has reason to suspect that Grant will not be able to escape at least one "unstrict royal majesty".
According to Li Mu's observation during this time, in Li Mu's heart, Grant is indeed a bastard, look at the people appointed by Grant, Emile, Burnside, and Bernapp, all of them are bastards, unscrupulous when accepting bribes, and insatiable when taking black money, it can be seen that Grant is not a good person.
"How is that possible? Do you doubt Mr. President? No, no, No, Reem, you don't know President Grant, Mr. President is a person who values feelings, he is a person who misses the old, maybe Mr. President has made mistakes in employing people, but Mr. President is absolutely impossible to be a traitor. "Will has faith in Grant.
"Hehe, Will, look at Able, look at Burnside, look at Bernapp, these are just the officials we have been in contact with during this time, and there are many that we have not been in contact with, look at what these people are, you will know the quality of Mr. President." Li Mu didn't believe Grant.
Although there is information that Grant was reluctant to leave the White House after leaving office because he had no place to live, this was definitely not because Grant had no money to buy a house, but because this guy was too selfish and unwilling to leave the White House, the political heart of the United States.
In October of this year, when Grant was campaigning for the presidency, one of Grant's main opponents for the presidency, Horace Greeley of the Liberal Republican Party, wrote an article in the New York Tribune, revealing that Grant had a close relationship with Gould, who created "Black Friday", and that Horace Greeley also revealed that Grant's wife had accepted a bribe from Gould for a box of bills.
When he left the White House, Grant was not penniless, this guy even had money to work in the banking and investment industry, but unfortunately this guy had no talent in business, and all his property was lost, so he was so poor that he had to sell Civil War souvenirs to survive, and even sold his most beloved saber.
For such a person, Li Mu can't have a good impression.
"Ream, I won't let you say that!" Will's expression was excited, and his face turned red and roared at Li Mu.
Tsk, this seems to be the first time Will has clashed with Li Mu.
