The next morning, Li Mochen and Mike Ross appeared together in a bright and spacious meeting room in the Kjellan Law Firm.
Lawyer Garrett, who was in charge of Li Mochen's inheritance case, obviously recognized Mike Ross and was rather surprised by his arrival. However, he didn't think too much about it. He placed all the documents in front of Li Mochen.
"Mr. Wildenstein, the procedures for the inheritance of Xuri Company's shares have been completed. As long as you pay 9,360,000 gold duns in inheritance tax to the IRS, it will be yours. Of course, if you can't, we can auction off the shares you inherit to pay the tax. "
Li Mochen could not help but sigh inwardly, thinking that Specter had guessed correctly. Even the final amount of inheritance tax was about the same.
"9,360,000 gold duns? That's 31,200,000 gold duns, right? "
Mike Ross took the documents on behalf of Li Mochen and flipped through them one by one. "I'm sorry, I can't see that my employer's company is worth that much money."
"That's an authoritative valuation agency appointed by the IRS. Although our law firm tried our best to salvage the situation on behalf of Mr. Wildenstein, the result was regrettable."
Bobby Garrett spread his hands and looked helpless. "Xuri Company has five warehouses, three of which are near the eastern part of the city. They're all larger, and they're developing a real estate project. They estimate that this Archibald Apartments can earn Xuri Company a profit of 22,000 to 31,000,000 gold duns. That's a reasonable valuation."
Ross sneered. "As far as I know, this Allen Valuation Agency isn't authoritative at all. I've also seen your valuation documents. They're not rigorous, and the process is very irregular. For example, you actually chose Durfield Apartments, which is 1.3 kilometers away, as a reference for the house price. They're separated by half a block. That's unbelievable. I now strongly doubt your professional integrity. "
"Mr. Ross! That's a very serious and false accusation! Durfield Apartments is the only apartment building nearby. Using it as a reference for Archibald Apartments is in accordance with legal procedures. If you can't produce any evidence, can you please shut up? "
His eyes were like torches as he stared at Li Mochen. "Mr. Wildenstein, of course our law firm will do our best to help you reduce the inheritance tax, but things don't turn out as we wish. I think you must have offended someone, right? This is beyond the ability of our law firm. Of course, if you are not satisfied, you can also choose to continue to appeal. But we, the Kajaron Law Firm, can't do anything about it. I'm afraid you'll have to find someone else. "
Ross looked at Li Mochen with a questioning gaze. When he saw the latter nod slightly, he slowly took out a letter. "I'm sorry! My client doesn't want to talk to you, and I don't think there's any need for further discussion. This is our lawyer's letter. Please accept it, Mr. Garrett. My client believes that the Kajaron Law Firm, motivated by unclear interests, colluded with Allan Appraisers to intentionally harm the interests of your employer. Now, we will give you three days to rectify everything and compensate accordingly. Of course, the Kajaron Law Firm can also choose to receive a subpoena from the court after three days. "
Garrett was stunned. After a full three seconds, he looked at the lawyer's letter in his hand. Then, he raised his eyebrows slightly. "You want me to fire Mr. Garrett and Mr. Daniel, notify the legal department of their violations, correct the Xuri Company's appraisal results, and compensate all losses amounting to 9.7 million gold duns? Is this Mr. Wildenstein's request? "
"That's right!"
Ross's lips curled into a smile. "I think my client's request is very reasonable."
Garrett looked like he wanted to smash the lawyer's letter in their faces, but in the end, he shrugged. "I'm sorry, I don't have the authority to respond to your request. I'll have to consult my partners on this matter. But with all due respect, the possibility of our law firm agreeing to your request is almost zero. "
"Then please look forward to the subpoena from the court."
Mike Ross had already stood up and shook hands with Bobby Garrett. "My client's time is limited, so that's all for today. Before I leave, please allow me to give you a friendly reminder. Just last Monday afternoon, you should have received a phone call and a letter from the Xuri Company. I don't know if you missed it or deliberately ignored it, but there is no doubt that it was a huge mistake. "
Before he could finish speaking, Bobby Garrett frowned, and his eyes were filled with vigilance. Mike Ross chuckled and followed Li Mochen out of the meeting room.
Just as the two of them were walking towards the elevator, they saw a burly, white-haired middle-aged man with a triangular waist and head in front of them. He was surrounded by a large group of people as he walked towards them.
Mike Ross's expression turned cold, and he whispered in Li Mochen's ear, "It's Antonio from Blood Hand!"
Li Mochen immediately focused on the man, and then didn't care anymore. This should be a Level-15 Warlock, and his strength should be quite good. Coupled with the top-notch magic weapons he carried with him, in the City of Atlanta, he could probably be ranked among the top experts.
But Warlocks were magic professions, and according to Li Mochen's understanding, they should be the easiest type for him to deal with.
But the two level-13 magic professions beside this person made Li Mochen feel rather fearful.
But that was all. Li Mochen didn't think that these people had the strength to threaten his life. He was also confident that within half a year, he would be able to trample all these guys under his feet.
But just as they were about to brush past each other, Antonio suddenly stopped. "You're André Wildenstein, right? Are you interested in talking? "
Hearing this, Li Mochen also stopped. "Talk about what? Archibald's Apartments? "
"You're very smart. It seems that you've gotten some information."
Antonio removed the cigar from his mouth and exhaled a big mouthful of smoke. "Then let's get straight to the point. I'm very interested in your Xuri Company's apartment project and import and export business. I'm willing to buy them for 5.2 million gold duns. And I heard that you have some problems with inheritance tax, right? How about I help you solve this problem? "
Li Mochen shook his head slightly, then turned around and left. He didn't think there was any need to talk about it.
"Hey! Boy, I know you're at the peak of your passion, but you can't do anything just by being hot-blooded and impulsive. This is my precious experience when I was young. "
Antonio smiled, not angry at all. "You know what? I just met your sister, Jennifer Wildenstein. Compared to your family, I think I'm still a bit more humane. I don't kill if it's not necessary. So, don't you want to reconsider, Mr. Wildenstein? "
But in the next moment, he saw the elevator door open, and Li Mochen walked in without hesitation.
Antonio shrugged and turned his gaze back. Then he saw some of the employees in the office suddenly panic, getting up and hurrying towards the conference room.
