American Tax Officer - Chapter 31
Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Is this a bit too much?
“We’ll find out tomorrow…”
Nisen didn’t say more and immediately started his car and left.
…
The next morning, it wasn’t even 8 o’clock yet when David arrived at the office.
The reason he came so early was mainly to prepare the required tax documents and files before Quan Zhentai and his people arrived.
The assessment period meeting was scheduled for noon.
In other words, as long as he completed the filing of those people’s funds and materials before noon, the tax performance would be counted in this assessment period.
After drinking a cup of coffee, time swiftly moved to 8 o’clock.
At this time, inspectors started to trickle into the third floor workspace.
But just as everyone was preparing to start the new day’s work, they found a group of people emerging at the passage.
The appearance of this group attracted the attention of many people on the scene.
However, when they saw clearly the direction in which this group was headed, many of them revealed surprised expressions.
Because the group was headed towards David’s workspace.
This early in the morning, could it be… these people were here to pay taxes too?
But didn’t David just deal with that group of Islanders yesterday? It’s only been one night, where did he find this new group of people to settle with?
This efficiency in handling cases, not even a rocket is this fast!
It’s outrageous!
At this moment, quite a few inspectors began to doubt their lives, and to understand the situation more clearly, they moved closer to David’s workspace, eager to hear the details.
Over here, watching Quan Zhentai and others arrive, David showed a satisfied expression and said, “You’re quite punctual!”
Quan Zhentai, uncertain, asked with a blank expression, “Inspector Sir, may I ask you a question?”
“Go ahead!”
“Is the reason we were approached related to that group of Islanders?”
After last night, Quan Zhentai felt more and more that something was off.
It was true that the Tax Bureau had extensive powers, but he did not believe that they could have obtained such detailed criminal information on them.
Moreover, after a night of research, he found something in the provisions of the black tax law.
According to the provisions of the black tax law, if the Tax Bureau approached someone, any behavior that included informing or meritorious conduct would result in a certain amount of tax reduction.
Taking into account the news Smith told him, that Miyano Masho’s group had been approached by the Tax Bureau before them, it was very debatable.
Miyano Masho’s group was not only competitors but also enemies of the Bangguo People.
And with the tax reduction provision, they definitely had the motive to ‘betray’ them!
Moreover, because they all worked in the same industry, the Islanders had a lot of information on the Bangguo People, which allowed the Tax Bureau to get so much evidence against them!
“I’m sorry, but according to the regulations of our Tax Bureau, we must keep taxpayers’ identities confidential. I cannot divulge that information!”
You have to admit, Quan Zhentai had some brains.
Indeed, the reason David could approach him was with the information provided by Miyano Masho.
But what he didn’t know was that the many pieces of evidence against his gang were obtained through a bug called the Golden Finger!
“Inspector Sir, as I understand it, your black tax law has a provision for informing and meritorious conduct. I’d like to know what kind of tax relief is available?”
“As for the illegal activity of theft…”
A few minutes later, after understanding the tax relief policy, Quan Zhentai showed an expression of heartache and indignation.
This tax mitigation is not a one-time thing but lasts for a lifetime. If the conditions were met, the accumulated savings would be substantial.
But what a pity it was that damned Miyano Masho snagged such a great deal!
The more Quan Zhentai thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Why hadn’t the National Tax Service come to them first?
Had that been the case, he could have betrayed that cursed group from the Island Nation and reaped the benefits!
“What, do you have a target in mind to report?”
Quan Zhentai thought for a moment but ultimately shook his head, “Not at the moment…”
In Las Vegas, the people he knew best were naturally those from the Island Nation, but he had missed that opportunity, and he was not familiar with and dared not rashly denounce other forces.
“Then let’s start filing…”
“…”
Listening to the conversation between David and Quan Zhentai and watching the taxes being withdrawn one by one, the surrounding inspectors could finally confirm.
These people were indeed here to pay taxes!
In just two or three days, this was already the fourth case David had resolved, which seemed a bit too exaggerated…
While the inspectors were shocked, they also couldn’t figure it out, with some already picking up their phones to inform their superiors and report another explosive incident.
…
On the fourth floor, in Liu Yi’s office.
“673,300 US dollars, truly an unbelievable tax achievement!”
Liu Yi looked at the assessment form he had just compiled, his face beaming with smiles.
But just then, the ring of the landline interrupted his thoughts. He picked up the receiver, “What’s the matter…”
“…”
A minute later, the previously beaming Liu Yi’s eyes widened, his lips slightly parted, even trembling, as if he had heard something inconceivable.
According to the news from the other end of the phone, David had resolved another case and was currently on the third floor processing and recording it.
Could it be… the Bangguo thief case he mentioned yesterday?
Yes.
According to reports from below, there were about 20 people, all of whom had Asian faces. What else could it be if not the Bangguo case!
But how could this be possible!
David, this guy, had resolved the group from the Island Nation in just one day, which was already astonishing, but this Bangguo group was even more outrageous, almost settled overnight!
How did he do it?
“Giggle giggle giggle…”
Before Liu Yi could sort his thoughts, a knock at the door forced him to set aside his reflections, to which he responded, “Come in!”
The next second, four or five men entered through the door.
And these were none other than the other Chief Tax Officers from the Lake District Sub-Bureau Branch.
“Chief Tax Officer Liu Yi, your Inspector David has cracked four major cases in just a few days. Isn’t his efficiency a bit outrageous?”
The first to speak was Hector, who obviously had also received the news from the third floor and could not sit still any longer, coming to probe for information.
Although the other Chief Tax Officers did not speak immediately, they also stared at Liu Yi with bewildered expressions.
Because in their eyes, as David’s superior, Liu Yi must know some details about these cases.
“This kid’s efficiency in solving cases is indeed high, but there’s nothing to be done. Who can help it if he’s gifted and capable? I think he might just be born for the Black Tax Code!”
