Hardy came to Japan with the sword of Shang Fang. The current US policy towards Japan is still in the strictest period.
Everything is for one purpose.
weaken!
weaken!
Weaken it again!
Hardy ruined the foundation of Japanese military industry, and the Japanese lost their concubines like their parents, but for the Americans, Hardy did the right thing.
This is also called political correctness.
In a blink of an eye, October 1st.
A great event happened on the earth on this day. The great power of the East was founded, and the eyes of the whole world are all looking to the east.
Global Times,
New York Times,
The Times,
Le Figaro, France,
......
Hardy looked at the newspaper with excitement and disappointment in his heart. The excitement was that he had witnessed a history, but the disappointment was that he couldn't read it in person.
Almost all major newspapers in the world have reported on the establishment of the Great Eastern Powers, and many of them are still headlines.
Governments of various countries are highly concerned.
The response is also different.
The Soviet Union took the lead in reacting and establishing diplomatic relations, followed by Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and other countries.
The United States has adopted more stringent blockade measures.
MacArthur received the order to send more warships to blockade the nearby waters to help Old Chang on the island.
this day.
Duncan came over to report to Hardy.
"Boss, Boss Henry said he was ready, and asked if you would start to act?"
Hardy nodded.
Get started.
......
America.
the state of Wisconsin.
Madison City.
Mr. Judson, the owner of the Judson Trading Company, drove to the company after having breakfast at home.
The size of the Judson Trading Company is one of the best in Madison, mainly exporting grain, food, cotton and other materials.
A few years ago, Judson was just the owner of a shoe factory. The size of the shoe factory was only tens of thousands of dollars. One day he saw a newspaper and his cousin MacArthur became the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in Japan. Wan Li ran to Japan.
When Judson returned from Japan, he gave up the shoe factory business and opened a trading company, mainly engaged in the export of grain business.
He borrowed hundreds of thousands of dollars, transported a full ship of grains and various foods, and quickly sent them to Japan. After these grains arrived in Japan, some of them were sold to the military, and the other part went privately into the black market.
The first ship.
Judson earned more than $300,000.
And it is pure profit.
Judson was ecstatic, it was too profitable, and since then he started a crazy profitable trading business.
At least two cargoes per month, with tens of thousands of tons of grain and food being transported, two-thirds of them go through formal channels, and the remaining one-third goes to black market merchants.
His business.
Because smuggling is involved, there is never a way to match the accounts and amounts. Therefore, some of the funds go through formal channels, while the other part of the funds cannot be used, so they can only choose other ways to deposit.
And it also involves his cousin MacArthur. The reason why he can do this business is because of MacArthur’s asylum. In other words, he is actually just his cousin’s agent, and 60% of the money he makes is Belongs to MacArthur.
To save money.
Judson thought of many ways.
MacArthur told him that the money must never exist in Japan.
In the end, Judson set his sights on Hong Kong and opened several accounts with HSBC in Hong Kong, depositing a sum of money every month.
There are two accounts.
One was opened by Judson in his own name.
The other was opened in the name of MacArthur's second wife, Joanne.
The money exists in Hong Kong, far away, and Judson feels very safe. He also reported to MacArthur at the time. MacArthur felt that it was good for the money to exist in HSBC in Hong Kong. HSBC belongs to a British bank and is guaranteed.
They don't believe anyone will find Hong Kong.
Originally, Judson’s business could be bigger. It was nothing more than preparing more ships and cargo. However, he was a cautious person, and he only got so many shares every month. , Inevitably be suspected.
Therefore, the monthly shipment volume of 10,000 tons on two ships will be maintained in the later period.
Even so.
Judson can also earn millions of dollars a month. The money is deposited in the bank. MacArthur can allocate about 600,000, and he has 400,000.
Later,
Judson opened several accounts in Switzerland, Cuba, Brazil and other countries, using his own name and MacArthur's wife's name respectively.
Just like this, the water flows long.
After a few years,
Judson also has a net worth of tens of millions, and his money saved overseas is as much as 20 to 30 million, and MacArthur has even more money. MacArthur’s wife’s several accounts total more than 40 million US dollars.
The money.
Can't see the light.
First, the money was originally made from the black market business, and there is no way to tell the origin. Second, the money cannot be brought back to the United States because the legal source cannot be proven. Simply put, this is the most typical black money. If you want to bring it back, you need it. Money laundering, you have to know that the cost of money laundering is very high, and Judson feels that the gains outweigh the losses.
And even if you get the money, you still have to pay a personal income tax to the Federal Revenue Service. You have to know that this tax is not low. If he brings back so much money, he will probably pay about 35%, one third, Judson It hurts to think about it, which he absolutely doesn't want.
Simply.
The money has been kept abroad.
Judson's business is going smoothly, and his life is getting more and more nourished. In his vision, he will earn hundreds of millions of fortune in the future and become a master of the United States.
But just today when he came to the company, several men in suits came to visit, and one of them took out his credentials.
"Mr. Judson, we belong to the Federal Revenue Service. Please come back with us to assist in the investigation."
Judson's body immediately stiffened.
he knows,
People from the tax bureau are not looking for a good thing.
I was a little stuttered.
"A few gentlemen, me, I have been paying taxes according to regulations, no, there is no tax evasion."
The leader of the team said lightly: "If you have anything to tell us, please Mr. Judson, I hope you don't let us use coercive means."
Judson dared not resist.
Had to obediently follow the people from the tax bureau back.
In the Inland Revenue Department's investigation and interrogation room, Judson sat in a chair. Although it was still October, he felt that there was a gloomy coolness digging into his bones.
"Mr. Judson, how many years have you been in the trading business?" someone asked.
"More than four years."
"Where do you usually sell?"
Judson paused for a moment.
"The main market is Japan, and I have formal export documents."
"What we want to ask is not whether your exports are in compliance. That is a matter of customs. I now ask you, do you have an overseas account?"
Judson suddenly got cold all over.
he knows,
Since the people from the tax bureau asked this, they must have some evidence, otherwise they would not bring themselves and directly ask about overseas accounts.
Even if Judson is not a lawyer or accountant.
But for so many years in business, he also knows the general tax situation.
According to U.S. law, the subject of personal income tax is U.S. citizens' income from all over the world.
He is doing export business. If he has an overseas account and transfers money to an overseas fund account, it is a very obvious tax evasion.
"No, I don't have an overseas account." Judson denies that he will not give in easily.
The tax inspector who was interrogated on the other side was not in a hurry, opened a folder and took out a few documents, "After our investigation, you opened an account in Cuba with a deposit of 2.5 million U.S. dollars, and you opened an account in Brazil with a deposit of 3.58 million U.S. dollars."
"The two funds under your name were remitted separately in the past two years. Do you have any explanations."
Judson's body began to tremble slightly.
The figures that the interrogators said were exactly the figures he had deposited in those two banks, which showed that they did have the evidence.
Huhuhuhu~~!
Judson's heart was beating wildly, breathing heavily, but he still gritted his teeth, "I'm sorry, I don't know what you are talking about, I want to see my lawyer."
He can't say.
Because his overseas deposits are not limited to these two.
and,
Just speak up.
I am afraid that more things will be implicated.
There is.
He still has expectations in his heart.
Just hope MacArthur can save himself.
So he chose to shut up. As long as he didn't say it, there would still be a chance. He also knew the truth about sitting in a lenient prison and frankly.
So no matter how the interrogator asked, he only said one sentence, that is, he wanted to see his lawyer.
......
Hardy originally ordered Duncan to investigate MacArthur, and later found out on the black market in Japan, involving MacArthur's cousin.
He immediately ordered Henry to investigate this Judson fully.
Henry used elite personnel,
monitor,
Surveillance.
Track the cargo ship.
Investigate the black market.
Finally, the investigation revealed clues, and it was discovered that this Judson's funds actually existed mainly in Hong Kong HSBC.
As a result, when he reported to Hardy, Hardy laughed at the time.
Isn't it a coincidence?
Hardy did not directly ask HSBC's senior executives to investigate, but let the people who had been placed in HSBC secretly investigate, and this investigation allowed Hardy to discover more astonishing things.
MacArthur’s cousin Anderson first deposited his money in HSBC. Because Hong Kong has loose supervision of funds and freedom to go out, it is also known as a free financial port.
He not only opened an account by himself.
He also opened an account for MacArthur’s wife. A discerning person knew at a glance that the money was for MacArthur.
And more funds are remitted.
It shows that in the black market smuggling business, MacArthur is the biggest seller.
In fact, Hardy is not surprised at this point. As the Japanese imperial emperor, it is very normal to use his power to profit for himself.
It's just that they open an account directly with their own name and their wife's name. This is too blatant. I guess they didn't expect someone to come to Hong Kong to investigate them. They can only say that they were careless.
Although the Federal Taxation Office is very powerful, in this era, the Federal Taxation Office still does not have as strong investigative capabilities as later generations.
Even later generations,
There are still countless illegal fund accounts that cannot be investigated.
Although the Federal Revenue Service is powerful, they are not gods.
It can only be said that they shipped poorly,
If you are someone else, it may be difficult to find out here, because you need extremely high authority to investigate these private accounts.
But the person to be investigated is Hardy.
Today, this Judson still has more than 10 million US dollars in HSBC, and MacArthur's wife still has more than 20 million.
At first, Judson kept all his money in HSBC. Later, when he had more money, perhaps it was to spread the danger, or it might be useful elsewhere. Judson successively used HSBC’s financial channels to remit money to Swiss, Cuban, Brazil and other national banks.
Cuba in this era is still the back garden of the United States. Under the control of the United States, many Americans will go to Cuba for vacation in the right season, including dignitaries and rich people.
And now Cuba’s financial supervision is very loose.
Because of this, the Basini mafia felt that it was profitable to open a casino in Cuba. If only Hardy fudged them and went to Cuba, it would be too dumb.
Since the money was transferred from HSBC, there are traces to follow, and the accounts in these countries will be quickly checked.
After investigating these things, Hardy thought about it, and finally asked Henry to take out Judson's own accounts in Cuba and Brazil.
As for the HSBC account, Hardy does not intend to leak it out, because this is the source, and the Swiss account is not revealed because it is difficult to check.
There is also the MacArthur’s wife account, he did not let Henry disclose, so now the Federal Revenue Service only knows about Judson.
Even so.
The Federal Revenue Service also felt that it had caught a big fish.
After all, this is more than 6 million U.S. dollars.
Hardy was targeted by MacArthur Although Hardy designed him to offend the seven consortiums, and finally handed over the three hundred military enterprises, but the matter would never be over. Hardy’s mind was not big. He wants to get back by himself.
So it was arranged for Henry to poke Judson.
certainly,
This was not something that surprised Hardy. When Hardy asked him to investigate the accounts of Judson and MacArthur's wife, his subordinates later reported another matter to Hardy.
At HSBC,
Not only MacArthur’s wife’s name, but MacArthur’s own name.
And it’s not cash in his name,
Is gold,
8 tons of gold.
According to the current gold price of 35 US dollars per ounce, it is exactly 10 million US dollars.
Hardy suddenly thought of the rumors about MacArthur in later generations. During MacArthur's time as Japan's "Emperor", Japan paid a large amount of bribery to him. This allowed MacArthur to withstand the pressure and retain the emperor's existence instead of fully implementing democracy.
There is also a group of war criminals who have been released privately.
It is said that the bribes MacArthur received were mainly gold, scattered in many banks, with a total of 100 tons.
certainly,
This is just a rumor. People look at it as gossip, because these news have never been confirmed, but from the current situation, these rumors are estimated to be true.
If he really collected 100 tons of gold.
That is more than 100 million U.S. dollars.
This old boy has a really big appetite.
At first, Hardy was surprised that the amount was huge, but when he converted it, he found that it was only more than 100 million US dollars, which seemed to be normal again.
I have come to Japan during this period of time, and I have gained more than 100 million U.S. dollars.
