"André, if you want to inherit your father's company, then you have to sign this inheritance agreement."
Harvey Specter seemed to know a lot about Li Mochen. "There are legal procedures for inheritance, so they can't make a big deal out of it. They won't do it for the sake of the law firm's reputation. But if it were me, I would start with the valuation of the property. You know, in America, once you inherit more than a hundred thousand gold guilders, you have to pay a large inheritance tax. "
Li Mochen seemed confused. "But Xuri Company is now close to negative equity."
"But you have an Archibald condominium project under construction, don't you? That's where you can make a big deal out of it. "
Specter smiled. "They can value the project at three million gold guilders, or more than thirty million gold guilders. As long as it doesn't exceed that number, it's within the reasonable range. According to Georgia's thirty-five percent inheritance tax rate, you will have to pay more than nine and a half million gold guilders in taxes. André, you definitely won't be able to pay that amount, so you will need to auction off the shares and use the proceeds to pay the tax. And because of the loophole in the law, you may not be able to collect the inheritance tax even if you sell off the entire Xuri Company. So, the moment you inherit your company, it actually belongs to someone else. Of course, you can file a lawsuit, but the money spent in the process can also make you bankrupt. "
"But wouldn't that be betraying the employer?"
"Not really. As long as the national tax bureau assigns a suitable property appraiser, it will be done. That way, the Kajaron Law Firm can achieve its goal and stay out of it. "
Li Mochen could not help but show a hint of coldness in his eyes. "I think you must have a way to deal with it?"
"Yes, I do. One is to sell your condominium project to Antonio. I know him. He is a relatively gentle person among the gang leaders. If there is a more peaceful way to get what he wants, Antonio will not refuse. "
Spector paid close attention to Li Mochen's reaction, then decisively said the second option, "If you can't accept it, there's still a second way. Before they start their evaluation, let Xuri Company take the initiative to submit an application to the municipal government. They can use the objection of the residents as an excuse to stop the Archibald Apartments project. Of course, this was based on the premise that you still had sufficient control over the Xuri Company. If you can do it, then I have a way to get the city government to help you finalize this within a day. André, this is my promise to you. In addition, if you can afford it, I can even help you design a trap for the Kajaran Law Firm. "
Li Mochen was interested. "A trap? Can you tell me more about it? "
Specter raised his eyebrows slightly. "We'll also start with the IRS. Find a way to get them to assign an appraiser who has no previous business ties with the Kajellan Law Firm. Since there was no previous business contact, then the tacit understanding between the two parties has to be cultivated and negotiated again, right? At this time, a brilliant magic energy hunter or magic energy shadower, as well as a high-tech surveillance camera, can solve the problem. In a situation where they are unprepared, our chances of success are very high. I think that neither Antonio of Blood Hand nor the Kajellan Law Firm will be wary of a lonely teenager who has just lost his parents. As long as we find evidence of colluding with the appraiser, they won't dare bear the notoriety of selling out their clients. We can probably get the Kajellan Law Firm and the responsible appraisal agency to pay a huge sum of money to settle with you. At the same time, Remington Daniel will lose his law license and job. "
Li Mochen did not speak again until the young man named Mike Ross drove the car to a remote and uninhabited lakeside of Lake Lanier. Li Mochen got out of the car slowly and threw the sunglasses man's body into the lake.
This method of disposal seemed a little random, but in fact, he had already dealt with the body before abandoning it. The body was still intact on the surface, but its bones, meridians, and even flesh had been smashed into pieces by his True Essence. Especially the bones, every inch of them had been repeatedly crushed into powder by his palm force. So in less than a moment after entering the water, the body would naturally decompose and become food for the small fish and shrimps.
Li Mochen stayed in the same place, watching a large number of fish surging on the surface of the water and began to compete for 'food'. It was not until the movement of the surging gradually disappeared that he let Mike Ross drive away from the scene of the abandoned body.
There might still be some flesh and bone powder left here, but they would be mixed into the mud below and would be difficult to separate. And even if the police found it, they would not be able to recognize who it was.
Li Mochen read from the newspaper that although people in this world had already invented DNA comparison technology eighty years ago, this technology was still stuck in the laboratory. Because the equipment needed to compare DNA was expensive and took a long time, it could not be popularized to this day.
And when the day came when the police had the ability to confirm the identity of this person, all the relevant evidence would disappear in the past.
"I can leave the matter of suing the Kajlen Law Firm to you. But I can't afford it, so the reward will be fifty percent of their settlement. Is that okay? "
"Eighty-five percent!" Specter shook his head. "You have to consider the cost and the investment beforehand. Even if you put a gun to my head, I won't give in at all."
As expected, Li Mochen took out Alloy Roar 3221 again and put it to Specter's head. "I think sixty percent is a reasonable price."
"At least seventy percent! I won't give in again. "
An awkward smile appeared on Specter's face, but his expression was firm. When he saw Li Mochen put away his gun, he pretended to be indifferent and pulled at his clothes. "Then we have a deal? I think the result will definitely be satisfactory. Shall we go back to the Black Star Building to sign the contract now? "
Mike Ross also let out a long sigh. He thought to himself that they should have escaped the danger of being killed.
When the three of them returned to the building again, it was already late at night. The building, which had been bustling with activity five hours ago, was now empty.
Li Mochen looked at the sign of the Kajlen Law Firm in the elevator with mixed feelings. But then he put away his thoughts and followed the two of them to the twelfth floor of the Pearson Darby Specter Law Firm.
Even though it was a Friday night, there were still people working overtime in the office. Harvey Specter quickly drafted the details of the commission contract. After getting Li Mochen's approval, both parties signed and stamped the law firm's official seal.
What was worth mentioning was that Spector had purposely set the signing date on October 13th, which was seven days later.
"This is to prevent accidents. If the opponent learns of the contract, it will become their evidence. Signing the contract a few days in advance will be suspected of maliciously targeting you. This will be a penalty in court. Also, on Monday, I will send my colleagues to your company for guidance. "
Specter sorted out the contract in his hands and shook hands with Li Mochen again. "Then it's a pleasure working with you, Mr. Li. I know you may prefer this name."
Li Mochen also stood up. "There is one more thing I would like to ask of your law firm."
"What is it?"
At this time, Specter was still smiling from ear to ear.
After returning to the Pearson Darby Specter Law Firm, his fear of Li Mochen had actually been reduced to its lowest point.
The security company in charge of the Black Star Building had four outsiders stationed there. There were also tight magic arrays here to prevent any accidents — this was also the reason why the Black Star Building was so expensive.
But he still maintained enough respect for the person in front of him.
Li Mochen was very satisfied with Specter's attitude. "On Monday afternoon next week, I will go to the East Headquarters of Nathan Sports Group to sign a sponsorship contract. I hope to receive legal assistance from the Pearson Darby Specter Law Firm."
This law firm's name could be said to be stinky and long, but it just happened to show their strength.
If one was not a big lawyer with a certain level of reputation in the industry, they would not have the face to put their name in front of a big law firm.
And Li Mochen felt that this lawyer in front of him had already proven his strength to him.
"Nathan Sports Group?"
Harvey Specter's face suddenly showed a smile. "Then how about letting Mike go with you? Although he is my assistant lawyer, in our law firm, he has already obtained the title of Senior Associate (Senior Associate) (Senior Associate). Mike's current hourly rate is not high, only 120 gold shields. "
