    Brandon is the oldest of the four. He didn't show much when dealing with Shen Bao in the past. Anyway, he was responsible for converting funds and paying taxes, and there was never any problem.

    But this time he showed his big brother style: "It's not difficult to process gold ore, isn't it a thousand tons of crudely extracted gold ore? Listen to my idea, I have been thinking about it for a long time."

    The three people looked at him, and he paused and said: "It is not reliable to salvage a thousand tons of gold ore from a ship. We can expand it and find a fleet that sank in the North Atlantic! And we have to open up  With this news, several tons and dozens of tons of ore will be dropped, allowing more salvage companies to enter."

    Qin Shiou shrugged: "Why? This is also millions of dollars, isn't it?"

    ¡°Expand the beneficiary group, increase the credibility of this matter, and reduce our risk of being investigated.¡± Brandon said.

    The three of them nodded to express their understanding, and Brandon continued: "But I still want to handle it in the United States. Why come to Canada? The taxes in Canada are terrible. Don't handle the funds here."

    Canada has always been known as the "Land of Tens of Thousands of Taxes". Their tax system is very complex, and it is difficult to use a single number to describe how much tax people pay.

    But there is a simple and crude way to judge, that is, Canada has a customary holiday called "Tax Freedom Day", and this holiday is also the most hated by the people.

    As the name suggests, everyone's income will be free after Tax Freedom Day. The money earned after this day is theirs. Before this day, most people have to pay taxes on the money they earn. Only the money earned after this day can enter  Own fanny pack.

    This year¡¯s Tax Freedom Day is June 8, which means that the money Canadians earn before this day is just enough to pay this year¡¯s taxes.

    Of course, this festival is only for ordinary working-class people. For top rich people like Qin Shiou and those homeless people, this thing is useless.

    But from this point we can see how terrible Canada¡¯s taxes are. Foreigners only see the country¡¯s generous benefits, and then immigrate one after another. When immigrants come in, they know that they have been cheated - they will wet their pants when paying taxes.

    In addition, the famous Fraser Institute has created a comprehensive statistical method. They followed the "Consumer Price Index" of the Bureau of Statistics to calculate the comprehensive price index and created a "Canadian Consumer Tax Index."

    There are many taxes in Canada, including various taxes and fees paid to federal, provincial and local governments, such as income tax, payroll tax, health tax, business tax, real estate tax, fuel tax, vehicle tax, import tax, tobacco and alcohol tax, etc.

    After adding all these taxes and fees together, the total taxes paid by Canadian households last year totaled CAD 33,272, accounting for 42.1% of the average Canadian household income of CAD 79,010. According to research by the Fraser Institute, this is the highest in the world.  top ten.

    There are some countries that are even more impressive, such as Sweden with an index of 56.6%, Denmark with 55%, and Aruba with 59%. Of course, the gap between rich and poor in these countries is also the smallest, and the national welfare is the best.

    Qin Shiou took out his mobile phone and did some calculations for a while, then sighed: "Ma Dan, I always thought that I would double my assets and become a rich man this time. In fact, I can't get much, right? At least 50%  Even if I can get 200 million yuan in taxes, I still have to pay 100 million yuan in taxes?!"

    As he spoke, he became confused: "There weren't so many in the past, right?"

    They have auctioned art works many times. Qin Shiou has calculated before that the tax he paid each time was less than 20%, never less than 50%.

    Brandon said: "Yes, there weren't so many in the past. I used to use leather companies to avoid taxes. You have to know that there are many places in the world where taxes are relatively low, such as Macau, which is only 12%, even with the upper and lower taxes.  The money is not even half of 50%.¡±

    "But if you bring the gold ore to Canada for processing, it will not be that simple to avoid overseas taxes. Canada's tax laws are much stricter than those in the United States, especially when it comes to overseas tax recovery. France and France are simply awesome!"

    After such a discussion, Qin Shiou and Billy were dumbfounded. It seemed that it was more cost-effective to process this batch of gold ore in the United States. Half of the tax amount was too high.

    "Is it still going to be done in the United States?" Qin Shiou asked with a sigh, really sad, "I'm worried that Washington will get the news about our gold ore and directly send the navy to steal it secretly."

    According to the provisions of the internationally accepted "Discovery Act", if they want to salvage this batch of gold ore and bring it to the United States, they must first publish an announcement through the media at the beginning of the discovery.

    The "Discovery Act" is a method that has been implemented for halfMore than a century of international salvage regulations, this law was not originally created to protect sunken treasures, but for whales, fish catches, etc., property that has never had an owner.

    Later, with the emergence of the international ocean salvage craze, the "Discovery Act" was gradually applied to sunken ships. Lawyers believed that because of its age, sunken ships meant that they had been abandoned by the original owners, and they had no owners just like fish catches.  .

    For shipwreck salvage companies, the "Discovery Law" is a good thing. This thing is simply explained as "whoever finds it shall own it." Therefore, many ships salvaged in international waters almost follow this practice. Whoever finds the sunken site and salvages it  Whoever comes out will belong to him.

    Therefore, under normal circumstances, there is no problem in issuing a notice. Whoever finds and salvages it will belong to whoever finds it. This is protected by international law. Ordinary salvagers are incapable of looting. It doesn¡¯t matter even if relevant news is reported.

    ¡°However, the US government has this ability. What if they get the news and go to intercept it?

    After Qin Shiou expressed his concerns, Brandon and Little Blake shook their heads and said, "You filtered it. Don't worry about it. It's just ten tons of gold. It's not worth the US government's action."

    Billy also nodded and said, "Yes, don't worry about that. The U.S. government is not so dark yet."

    Qin Shiou looked at him and said, "Then why did you agree with my proposal to come to Canada to process ore?"

    Billy lamented: "The two of us are thinking about different things. You usually don't pay attention to the news in this area and don't know the situation. Not only did the damn Washington government enact the "Abandoned Ship Act", they also want to cancel the international  The general "Law of Discovery" adopts the "UNESCO Draft Convention for the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage."

    "What the hell is this?" Qin Shiou really didn't pay attention to the news in this area. Little Blake had heard about it a little bit, but didn't take it seriously. As for Brandon?  He talks about love all day now, so naturally he doesn't understand this matter.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
