Chapter 257: David's dilemma
"So what did the IRS compromise with them?"
David grasped the point in Donald's words.
Donald first lowered his head, then raised and pushed his glasses and said: "Remember Stevenson, he is actually a politician cultivated by the Mogen family, and the original plan was to run directly for the state's senator after stepping down as governor of Nevada, but then you stepped down, which caused the Mogen family to be very dissatisfied with the waste of resources." β
"Two days ago, their Freemason Group held a meeting, and under the strong lobbying of the Mogen family, those people felt that you were an uncontrollable person, so they didn't want you to enter the General Bureau, for fear that after you took over the power of the General Bureau in the future, some policies would be made to harm their interests."
"The ...... of the Demon Roots"
David clenched his fists, and his expression was slightly angry.
Now that he understands, he said, how dare a Dishini family say such a thing as buying out his career, it turns out that there is the Mogen family behind as a promoter.
"That means that the General Administration has compromised with them at this time? This is the bad news that Deputy Chief Donald just said? β
"It's not entirely about compromising with them, what we talked to him about is that we won't transfer you to the General Administration in the short term, but as your prestige in the IRS and the private sector grows higher, when the time comes, we senior executives will have to follow the trend."
Donald felt a little ashamed, according to David's contribution, even if he was transferred to the General Bureau now, it would be enough to qualify.
But it can't be helped, as he said before, politics is about compromise.
No matter how powerful the IRS is, for the sake of the bigger picture, it must also be concerned about the consequences of conflict with Freemasonry.
According to Donald, Davy's hopes of entering the General Directorate are still very high, but at the moment he is not happy at all.
Because he will definitely not be able to enter the center of power of the IRS in a short time, but you must know that Bellamy Hardy and Brown Sollos are already there.
And now it can be confirmed that these two guys were planted by the Freemasons in the General Administration to clamp him down.
Even if he enters the General Bureau in the future, the General Bureau may have become the lair of these two guys, and he is afraid that this strong dragon will also overpower these two ground snakes.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much, of course we won't let Freemasonry get into our core, just like they won't let us get into the heart of the Fed."
As if to see what David was worried about, Donald reassured him again.
David nodded, and instead asked, "By the way, Deputy Chief Donald, I have something I would like to ask you for your opinion." β
"What is it?"
"When the three Pipps guys attacked the black tax bill before, Stevenson quietly came to conspire with these people, and he should have come to stand up for them, and as far as I know, this guy has gone to New York State to run for the Senate, and with the support of the Mogen family, he also won the party nomination, if he is really elected, then I'm afraid it will be very troublesome, what do you think about this matter?"
"Has he stood up for the Black Tax Act?"
Donald frowned, Stevenson was running for Senate in New York, he knew, but he really didn't know about it.
"Yes, there will be no mistake in the information captured by the intelligence department of our bureau."
After being confirmed again, Donald's face became even more cloudy.
If Stevenson really stood up for the black tax bill, it means that he has this political intention.
If this guy is really chosen, he stands up and attacks the black tax bill, and the three Pips in the House of Representatives make waves, then the trouble will not be as easy to settle as last time.
After all, the power of a senator is enormous.
After thinking for a while, Donald raised his head and asked, "What about you, what is your idea?" β
"Of course I don't want him to be elected, but Deputy Director Donald, you know, just because I messed up his governorship in Nevada, and now the Mogen family has personally dissed me, if I mess with this matter again, I'm afraid I'll have to wear a bulletproof helmet when I go out."
Donald was a little crying and laughing, and then replied: "That's not it, the Demon Root family is very powerful, but not to the point of daring to kill our IRS, but then again, if you are allowed to make a move, are you sure to stir up this matter?" β
"Of course."
It was too easy for David to mess up Stevenson's campaign.
Either give him some black material at the critical juncture of this guy's campaign, or find his competitor in New York State, hand over this guy's black material to this opponent, and then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
It's not like David hasn't done this before, that's what he used when he was doing Stevenson in Nevada.
In short, it's easy to make this Stevenson run defeat.
It's just that he is afraid of the behemoth of the Demon Root Family, otherwise where would he have waited until now, he would have done it a long time ago.
Donald thought about it for a while, and finally said: "Forget it, I need to go back and discuss this matter with the director, and I will inform you when the time comes, anyway, there is still a period of time before the midterm elections." β
"Okay."
The so-called good news and bad news are basically over here.
In the days that followed, Donald had a discussion with David about putting the finishing touches on Hollywood, and it wasn't until six o'clock that he left to return to his hotel.
β¦β¦
At eight o'clock in the evening, David was frying a steak in his apartment building when a doorbell prompted him to turn off the fire and come to the door.
In front of the door is a smart template, which can directly open the door of the apartment building downstairs, and you can also see who is coming through the camera.
And David turned on the camera for the first time, and what caught his eye was that it was none other than Serena, who had already been here once last time.
After a moment of contemplation, David pressed the button to open the door of the apartment building below, and then opened the door.
A few minutes later, there was a dinging sound from the elevator entrance, and Serena walked out and said, "Director David, didn't bother you, did you?" β
"Of course, it's only eight o'clock, let's come in and talk about it."
After walking in, Serena smelled a strong fragrance and said, "Didn't you eat dinner, Director David?" β
"Yes, fried steak, would you like one?"
"No need."
Serena sat down on the couch.
"Would you like to have something to drink?"
"Give me a glass of water."
Soon, David brought a glass of water in front of her, and sat down across from her.
Because David had just finished washing up and was wearing a bathrobe, looking at the thick chest muscles that were slightly exposed, Serena looked at it unconsciously, and then took a sip of the water glass.
"Tell me Serena, what's the matter with coming to me?"
David didn't seem to notice anything unusual about her, and asked to himself.
Serena put down the water glass, adjusted her thoughts, and said, "I heard that the Freemasons have personally taken action against you, and they are going to prevent you from entering the General Bureau?" β
"You're well-informed."
"Bellamy Hardy and Brown Solos, these were originally your two defeated men, but now they have been run by the Freemasons into the General Bureau, they are obviously supporting these two to restrain you, Director David, you must be cautious about this."
"Thanks for the reminder, I will."
Looking at David's calm and breezy appearance, Serena was also a little speechless for a while.
She originally thought that David would be very angry when he learned about this.
After all, in the past few months, I've punished criminals big and small, established the authority of the IRS, and launched a tax clearance on Hollywood, and everything has been done beautifully.
And you, Brown ThorrΓ³s and Bellamy Hardy, two guys who originally lived in my shadow, were transferred to the General Bureau before me, is that fair?
But what she didn't expect was that David was not only not annoyed now, but looked away, which made her really incomprehensible.
"Anything else?"
Serena adjusted her thoughts and spoke again, "Director David, may I ask you a question?" β
"Say."
"Do you want to take your career further, or are you content with the status quo?"
"Why do you ask?"
"It doesn't mean anything else, if you're already content with the status quo, then I don't need to say any more."
"Go on."
Hearing this, Serena's heart was relieved, it seemed that David really didn't want to be satisfied with the status quo, and then she continued to speak: "Hollywood's tax clearance has now entered the finishing touches, and you have really done a beautiful job in this matter, which has been appreciated by the top management of the General Administration, as well as the White House and other departments. β
"However, this incident has also planted a foreshadowing in everyone's hearts, that is, the expectation of you has reached a new high."
"This means that the work you have to accomplish in the future is not as good as Hollywood's tax clearance, but at least it can't be lower."
"Once it's low, once or twice may be nothing, but over time, whether it's the General Administration or the White House, the favor for you will gradually decrease."
"And now you know that moving a Hollywood has affected the interests of so many people, and even caused Freemasonry to end up against you."
"If you want to continue to maintain the level of Hollywood tax clearance, you will inevitably continue to offend those people or other forces in the next road, which is probably equivalent to dancing on a tightrope for you!"
After hearing these words, David's eyebrows were also slightly tightened.
Although he knew very well that Serena had always wanted to win him into the camp against Freemasonry, he had to admit that the other party's words were reasonable.
This is like a person who has been admitted to Tsinghua University, so the people around you will not only be surprised, but also have expectations for you to a new height.
And at this time, you retake the test, if you can't pass the test, then the people around you will inevitably be disappointed.
And now his tax clearance against Hollywood can be said to have won a round of applause from the top management and even the White House.
If this level and tax amount cannot be maintained in the future, then these high-level leaders will definitely gradually become disappointed or even lose favor with him over time.
And if you want to maintain this level, it is definitely useless to just hunt down criminals.
It is impossible for these criminals to squeeze out tens of billions of taxes for him at every turn, just like the giants of the eight major film companies.
Then you can only attack capital.
In the United States, the people who control the capital are either the Yutai, or the Angsar group, the Illuminati, the Freemasons, and the major families.
No matter which side he touches, there is a lot of risk.
And if he doesn't move, he will gradually lose his political capital.
As Donald told him today, the Freemasons have named him and forbade him to enter the General Bureau, so he can only gain room for promotion by accumulating political capital.
The more he thought about it, the more David felt a little big.
He is now more and more aware that politics is really not something that ordinary people can play.
Especially an ordinary person like him who has no background and no foundation, if he wants to climb up, he has to fight his way out of the various power families.
And behind him, there is also a cliff, if you accidentally step on the air or be plotted, you will have to be crushed and never recovered!
"Director David, I'll make it clear, the internal environment of the United States is like this, the more you want to climb up, the more people you have to touch, this is something that no one can change, and if you want to succeed, the right time, place and people are indispensable, of course, I think the most important thing for you now is that you need a political ally to escort you, and our family is definitely your best choice!"
In fact, Serena wanted to say that they were David's only option.
The reason is also very simple, the purpose of the You Tai people has always been that the hearts of non-our race must be different, and those who do not have their bloodline will not be easily absorbed.
In other words, even if David takes the initiative to kneel and beg for refuge, there is a high probability that people will not accept it.
Although the Angsar group is not so particular about blood, they pay attention to faith and social lifestyle, while David has Asian ancestry, and his beliefs and social methods are obviously different, so he is naturally unlikely to be accepted by this group.
As for the Illuminati and the major families, not to mention.
So, apart from the Ken Halfy family, who have a blood feud with the Freemasonry group, does David have any other choice?
"I would like to ask, what is your family's current influence in the Congress?"
As the legislature of the United States, the role of Congress is to establish the existence of the sea god.
Theoretically, if one side controls Congress, it can basically do whatever it wants in the United States.
Not to mention the director of the IRS and the chief adviser, if he completely controls Congress, even the president can be abolished.
Of course, there are more than 500 members of both houses of the Diet, so there is basically no way to say which side can completely control it.
And now David just wants to test whether the Ken Bady family still has influence in Congress.
If not, it doesn't make much sense to form an alliance with them, and it may even get into trouble of being killed by Freemasonry.
"Our family still has some influence in Congress, for example, like the last time Pepps attacked the black tax bill, if you are willing to let our family intervene and let the other two legislators not get involved, we are still confident that we can do it."
Although Serena didn't say it directly, David also heard something from her words, and the Ken Maidy family did still have a certain amount of influence in Congress.
But soon David seemed to think of something, his eyes narrowed into a slit and asked: "November is the midterm elections, and there will be a big reshuffle in Congress, your family...... Can it continue to maintain its influence inside? β
Serena's eyes darkened slightly, and over the years, the Freemasons had been encroaching on their family's power.
And their family's influence in Congress is also declining.
If nothing else, in this midterm election, under the siege and suppression of Freemasonry, their family's influence in Congress will definitely decline further.
Putting away her thoughts, she replied: "Don't worry, our family has been able to stand in the United States for so many years, and both political and business circles have our connections, and reaching an alliance with us will definitely outweigh the disadvantages for you now." β
David put his hand on his cheek, thought for a moment, and replied, "Let me think about this matter." β
"Of course, but Director David, you have to make a decision as soon as possible, after all, Brown Thoros and Bellamy Hardy have entered the General Bureau, and under the influence of Freemasonry, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not become the climate at that time, and then you, a feudal official far from the center of power, will be in danger."
After saying this, Serena also stood up and left, leaving only Davy who was lost in thought.
At this time, David was indeed a little upset.
On the one hand, Donald's words today made him realize that the Freemasons were paying attention to him and even targeting him.
On the one hand, Serena's words just now, if he can't continue to maintain high taxes in the coming days, then his career will probably stop here in Los Angeles.
The current situation is that neither advance nor retreat!
After thinking about it for a long time, he took out his mobile phone, flipped out Nissen's number and dialed it.
"What's the boss?"
As soon as the phone was connected, Neeson's voice rang out.
"Do you have time now, come and talk to me here?"
There are some things that the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, so he wants to share this matter with Nissen to see if he can get some good advice.
"I'll come now."
At this point, Neeson knew that the director of the bureau must be in some trouble, so he said that he wanted to talk to him, so he quickly got dressed and went out.
Neeson also came from Nevada, and in order to facilitate David's dispatch, he came here and stayed in the same building.
So just a few minutes later, he came to the door of David's house, saw that the door was not closed, pushed the door and walked in, and then closed the door by the way.
Inside, David was in front of the refrigerator, took out two bottles of bottled beer, approached and threw them away, and Neeson took it.
"Poof......
The two sat down and pulled the ring and took a sip, and then David said, "Do you know what Deputy Chief Donald talked to me about today?" β
"What did you talk about?"
Neeson actually wants to know too, but sometimes David doesn't take the initiative to tell him, and he doesn't want to ask directly as a subordinate.
"The sudden transfer of Bellamy Hardy and Brown Solos to the General Directorate was actually arranged by the Freemasonic Group......"
After listening to the words, Neeson was also stunned.
He knew that Bellamy Hardy and Brown Solos were transferred to the General Bureau, and some forces must have been involved behind them, but what he didn't expect was that it was actually the legendary behemoth Freemasonry.
And what made him feel even more numb was that even David was targeted by the Freemasons, and he couldn't enter the General Bureau by name, which is also ruthless enough!
"Damn, this damn Freemasonry, this damn Demon Root Family!"
As a member of the IRS system, almost everyone's dream is to one day be able to enter the General Administration, and he is no exception.
originally thought that with the rise of David, and he, as David's henchman, it was certain that he would enter the General Bureau in the future.
But who would have thought that this Freemason suddenly stood up and intervened, and the influence of Freemasonry is well known, so his dream now cannot be said to be broken, but it can be regarded as shaky.
"And just now, Serena came to talk to me, and some of what she said I think still makes some sense, she said......"
David spoke again about what Serena had said to her.
After listening to these words, Neeson's face also became heavy, and he said thoughtfully: "What she said does make sense, according to the current situation of the Director, if you want to break the barrier of Freemasonry and be promoted to the General Bureau, you must make the tax work beautiful." β
"But if you want to make the tax work beautiful, the next step must be to touch the interests of the Jews, the Angsa group, or the major families, which is also very dangerous."
David took a sip of his beer and said, "So, what do you think I should do now?" β
"Hiss......"
Neeson showed a trace of entanglement on his face, and then slowly turned into firmness, and said: "You have contributed a lot to the success of the black tax bill, and now that the people are so supportive of you, you really shouldn't back down......"
"What do you mean...... Should I accept the Ken Badi family's alliance? β
In fact, reliving a life, David was indeed unwilling to be restrained like this, and forcibly extinguished the light that had begun to bloom.
And as the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier.
Now that he has entered the IRS system, it is natural that winning the title of Attorney General is the ultimate goal in his heart.
Even though the road is full of difficulties and dangers, he doesn't want to give up.
And the reason why he called Neeson over was more or less to have some psychological comfort and support, so that he would not feel like he was fighting alone.
"The reason why you are reluctant to get too close to the Ken Maidi family is just because you are worried about being targeted by the Freemasons, but now, the Freemasons have personally come down against you, what else is there to worry about?"
Neeson's words made David pause instantly.
Grass!
Oh, yes!
Now that the Freemasons have gone down to deal with him, if he is still worried about this problem, isn't it superfluous?
In that case, the alliance with the Ken Badi family is basically more beneficial than disadvantageous.
"Although the Ken Saddy family has been suppressed by Freemasonry over the years, they can still be called the four major families of our United States, and they still have strength, according to the current situation, it is a good choice to form an alliance with them."
Neeson added.
