Immediately, more than half of the people present looked at Qin Shiou with strange eyes. Several people didn't understand English very well. Hamre spoke quickly, so he didn't understand, so he asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Why do you all have such expressions?" ?¡±
"This young man is here to pay taxes. He has to pay more than 10 million in taxes!"
¡°Oh shit, it¡¯s over 10 million. Canadian taxes are really bad. This money can buy two houses in the third ring road in Kyoto.¡±
"Are you kidding me? It's more than 10 million Canadian dollars! You can also buy two villas!"
Qin Shiou secretly cried out, if it was in China before, if he could pay 10 million in taxes, he would wish that everyone around him knew about it.
But now that he has come to Farewell Island, firstly, the low-key and simple folk customs of the small town have smoothed the ferocious edges in his emotions; secondly, after more than a quarter of living as a rich man, his personality has improved a lot, and he has learned to keep a low profile and bide his time. I fell in love with low-key luxury.
Suddenly, he became the center of attention, so naturally he felt uncomfortable, so he smiled and did not answer Hamre's words.
Yan Donglei also twitched the corner of his mouth, and now he asked directly: "Mr. Qin, are you interested in politics? Do you know anything about the Liberal Party?"
Qin Shiou smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, President Yan, I have just been in Canada for a quarter, and I am staying in a small place like Farewell Town, so I don't know much about politics."
He winked at Auerbach, saying that his father would always be his personal friend, and quietly turned around and entered the tax office next to the town government.
Afterwards, Auerbach came out. For about a minute or two, a staff member from the tax office came out and said, "Do you have any tax payers? Please hurry up, because there is something wrong with our accounting machine. It will be sent to St. John's later." Repair it."
Taking this opportunity, Qin Shiou said goodbye and left, and went into the tax office to submit the tax bill, social security number, etc.
For a small and medium-sized business owner like him, paying taxes is not as simple as ordinary people paying personal taxes. After signing, he needs to fill in several documents and statements, and he does not have a driver's license, which makes it even more troublesome.
After working for half an hour, Qin Shiou got the tax payment certificate. Capitalist society also has benefits, that is, it is a paradise for rich people. Because Qin Shiou paid more than 10 million in taxes, his social security level was improved, which is comparable to what the domestic government gives you. A medal engraved with 'Big Tax Payer' is useful.
His current social security level is enough to ensure that when he is involved in civil or criminal disputes in the future, the local police station must obtain a search warrant issued by the provincial court to search his home, and it can also ensure that he has priority for medical treatment at the national hospital.
Capitalist society is so unfair. In China, connections and positions determine everything, but in Canada, money determines everything.
As long as you have enough money, even if you are a dog, Americans are willing to worship you. This is what Max said to the protagonist Noodles in the famous movie "Once Upon a Time in America", and it hits the nail on the head!
Not long after swiping the card to pay taxes, Qin Shiou's phone rang. It was the call from Alan Brandon, the president of the Bank of Montreal in Newfoundland. His voice was enthusiastic: "Qin, your account manager told me that your bank card has just been More than 10 million yuan disappeared across the ocean. If I guess correctly, you paid taxes, right?"
Qin Shiou still has a good impression of Allen Brandon. After all, he helped him get a gun license and said, "Yes, I just paid my taxes."
Brandon's phone call was nothing trivial. It was still related to money. After a round of chatting about family, fishing grounds, basketball, horse racing and wine, he got back to the topic: "If you want to pay for the accounts next quarter, I suggest you give it a try. For our bank¡¯s services, we have dedicated tax managers, all of whom are highly paid talents poached from the four major tax offices.¡±
Qin Shiou agreed that he would not have any high income this quarter, so he could just sell favors to Brandon.
As a result, there are always more changes in reality than planned.
While he was still calculating how much money he had left, his cell phone rang again. This time it was Billy Stermer, a diver from Odyssey Ocean Exploration Company, calling: "Qin, I have arrived in St. John's. Are you saying goodbye to the town?" Really? Is it convenient for me to go there now?"
Qin Shiou secretly thought that you are all in St. John's, how can I say that it is inconvenient for me? She told him her address and said she would wait for him at the dock.
Billy seemed to know that Qin Shiou was not very welcoming to him, so he brought up a topic straight to the point: "I am here this time with a plan to help you deal with one hundred tons of silver. If there is no problem, the silver can be exchanged for it in a month at most." Into cash!¡±
¡°Damn it, Qin Shiou cursed in his heart as soon as he hung up the phone, and then he thoughtStarting from now on, his income this quarter is not relatively small, but may be a lot! When the time comes, I will ask the Bank of Montreal to help with the tax avoidance problem. I don¡¯t know if it is reliable or not.
It was still some time before Billy arrived at Farewell Island. Qin Shiou first went back to the villa to put down the receipts, and then told Wei Ni about the situation and said that a friend was coming to visit.
Winnie listened to what he said and said, "Billy Stormer? I know this guy. He is very famous in Miami. He is, um." She pursed her lips and smiled, and continued, "He is a very famous flower girl. Young Master, he is also an excellent diving expert.¡±
Upon hearing that this guy was a playboy, Qin Shiou immediately distanced himself from the relationship and explained: "I don't know him. He came here to ask me for a notebook. I once got a notebook in the sea. It was a Dutch ship Deng The captain¡¯s notes of the Uchiyu seem to be related to some public case between the United States and the Netherlands.¡±
Winnie was stunned, and then said: "It seems like something good is going to happen. I wonder if you have noticed that the relationship between Odyssey Ocean Exploration Company and the Dutch government is particularly tense now. Both parties want the other party to go bankrupt immediately. I think Mr. Stermer is so I'm looking for you in a hurry because I plan to cause some trouble for the Dutch government."
Qin Shiou really didn¡¯t know what was going on here, so he asked, ¡°What do you mean? How can a person who salvages a sunken ship have any trouble with the Dutch government? Did they salvage something and the Dutch government took it away?¡±
Winnie smiled and said: "You are very sensitive, yes, that's the thing. But what was robbed from Oside was not just any ordinary thing, it was all the treasures on the sunken Mercedes, with a total value of more than 1 billion US dollars! It's above The gold and silver coins alone weigh 49,000 pounds!¡±
"Your mother exploded!" Qin Shiou said a new style of national curse, regardless of the girl he loved standing in front of him.
Wei Ni saw that Qin Shiou really didn¡¯t understand the relevant matter, so she introduced it to him: "This matter is very famous in the United States and has caused a lot of trouble. Farewell Island is a paradise and may not be very sensitive to this kind of information."
"The Mercedes warship is a Spanish frigate. On October 5, 1804, this warship set out from Montevideo, Uruguay, escorting 58.09 million gold pesos, 900,000 silver pesos and about 2,000 A copper ingot and a tin ingot to the port of Gardez."
"The day before arriving at the port of Gardez, the Mercedes was attacked by the British navy, which was competing with France for European supremacy, and sank minutes after the naval battle. Since no one knew exactly where it sank, the wealth on the ship remained sunk. to the bottom of the sea.¡±
"Five years ago, Odyssey Ocean Exploration launched an ocean salvage program code-named 'Black Swan'. They found the Mercedes and used advanced remote-controlled small submarines to salvage approximately 500,000 diamonds from the sunken ship. The gold and silver coins were then shipped to Florida.¡±
¡°After the Spanish government learned of the news, it dispatched the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Law, the Embassy in the United States, and the National Archaeological Research Department to join forces, and hired Skadden Law Firm to file a lawsuit against Odyssey Marine Exploration Company. , and finally won the case in the U.S. Supreme Court, and two Hercules transport planes were used to transport the treasures back to the country at the beginning of the year."
"There is no doubt that the people in Osaide will not be willing to give in. This is a billion-dollar fortune! They worked hard to salvage it, but the Netherlands took it away just by talking. If they say they don't want revenge, it must be a lie. of."
"So, I say your diary may become the trigger for a big dispute."
Winnie explained the matter in concise words, and at the same time expressed her opinion in a subtle way: try not to get involved in the disputes between these large groups and the rogue government, it will not be good for him.
Qin Shiou listened with great interest. He rubbed his chin, but thought of something else: This matter seemed to have nothing to do with him, but if he used it well, he could take advantage of it. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
