Although your confidentiality measures are very good and no one knows what exactly you did, some things don't need to know the process at all. You just need to pay attention to the results. Think about the results and you can understand the intention of your previous actions.
Before the stock market crash, you deliberately leaked to the paparazzi that the stock market would crash. This is a good preparation. At least now ordinary people are not so resistant to you making a lot of money.
What happened at Black Mountain was a demonstration to make people afraid of you, but your mistake was that you did it too deliberately. You didn't attract attention. Making a fortune in silence is the way of the king.
Now the people in the Finance Department are watching your actions. You better think of a reason why you want to return the money from Switzerland to England. I advise you to pay taxes in England. God, I'm happy to think that you have to pay a huge amount of taxes. Hahaha, William, can you still laugh now? "Gallis said gloatingly.
"Damn it." William cursed and hung up the phone. These old foxes were really not easy to fool. The more he did, the more flaws there were. If he wanted to cover up one thing, he had to do a lot of things, and these actions would let smart people guess that he had other things. It was really a headache.
He understood what Gallis had said on the phone just now. He was testing William. They knew that William had been watching the futures market in Switzerland for the past few months, but they were not sure if William had made a profit or a loss, let alone how much he had made.
Damn, William secretly regretted. He was really arrogant. Now he had a big mouth. These guys all knew that he had made a lot of money. These old foxes were really smart.
William picked up his phone and called his lawyer, Anthony. The call went through.
Anthony picked up the phone and said, "Hello, boss."
William said, "I'm back in Oxford. Come to the castle to see me. I have something to ask you."
Anthony heard that William's tone was a little serious and said, "I'm in London. I'll leave now and be at the castle in two hours."
"Bring your law firm's best tax experts. I need you to help me with my tax declaration. Everyone who comes today has to sign a confidentiality agreement," William ordered.
"Okay, boss. I'll do it now. The staff was ready yesterday. See you in two hours, boss," Anthony said.
"En, bye bye."
William sat in the car gloomily. He didn't expect that his confidentiality measures were so strict, but they were still guessed. Fortunately, the outside world didn't know how much money he had earned, but William knew that he was in trouble.
On the one hand, Gallis was testing him. On the other hand, he was reminding him that he could no longer hide the fact that he had made a lot of money from the stock market crash. He believed that it would not be long before the English newspapers would be full of news about him. It seemed that he really had to stay in Oxford for a while or go abroad directly.
He needed to properly arrange the tax affairs. At this time, he couldn't reveal any flaws. As long as there was nothing illegal, the government couldn't do anything to him. At most, they could condemn him in public opinion. If they scolded him, then so be it. After all, he wouldn't lose anything.
Barney and Christmas saw William's gloomy face after the phone call and knew that William was in trouble. They didn't say anything to disturb William along the way. When they arrived at the castle, Barney reminded him, "Boss, we've arrived at the castle."
When he got out of the car and looked up, he saw a Gothic building more than 30 meters tall. The main building was 90 meters long and 45 meters wide. It occupied more than an acre of land, and there were 10 acres of gardens, grasslands, and woods around it. The castle was an open castle. The walls were torn down more than 60 years ago when the city of Oxford was being rebuilt.
His mother, Lena, had carried out a large-scale modern renovation of the castle. The walls of the castle were polished to the original tiger-yellow color of the original granite. There were large and small skylights, arches, and slender columns on the top of the tower. Because it was built in the 19th century, it didn't have the gloomy feeling of a medieval castle. After the renovation, it gave off a bright and spacious feeling.
Tina ran to William's side and hugged his arm. "How do you feel? Aunt Lena and I supervised the completion of the renovation. The glass windows inside are the colors and patterns that I chose. Let's go, I'll show you." After that, she dragged William into the castle.
After entering the castle, the 200 square meter hall no longer had the gloomy feeling that William remembered. There were more than 10 small chandeliers on the ceiling of the hall, and they were surrounded by an 8 square meter large circular chandelier. The windows on the walls were also very large. They were all modern glass sills. When the sunlight shone in, the sky-blue marble floor was dazzling. The handrails and steps of the stairs were all replaced with new milky white marble.
After looking around the hall, Tina pulled William to his bedroom. They went up to the third floor of the castle. That was where William lived alone. It was a 50 square meter large bedroom. Beside the bedroom, there was a 20 square meter cloakroom, a 20 square meter bathroom, a 60 square meter study, and a 40 square meter living room.
There was also a baby room, a nanny room, and five empty rooms after the renovation.
"How is it, Brother William? I discussed a lot of these parts with the designer. I like this bedroom the most. There are two large windowsills around it. This is the only room in the castle that can be renovated with two windowsills. I also bought this bed for you. Brother William, come up and try this bed to see if it's comfortable."
William was speechless as he looked at Tina who was about to pull his hand and lie down on the bed. This little girl was really unscrupulous. She had even resorted to such methods.
Fortunately, Tina didn't choose a pink bed for him. Instead, she chose the Phoebe Phoebe bed that William specially asked for. This bed only cost William 10,000 pounds. In the 1900's, Phoebe Phoebe wasn't as popular as it was in the future. 3,000 Chinese coins could buy a square meter of wood. The furniture in his living room on the third floor were all made of Phoebe Phoebe wood. The whole set only cost him 100,000 pounds.
The antiques from the Ming Dynasty in the auction house were only worth tens of thousands of pounds. At that time, antiques from the Great Celestial Empire were not expensive. William wondered if he should buy a large number of antiques from the Great Celestial Empire in England and Europe. If he stored them for more than ten years, they could increase in value by 20 times.
In his previous life, when he was poor, he could only watch TV and watch those expensive antiques on the internet. He couldn't even afford to buy a good piece of jade. Now that he had money, and the castle was so big, there were plenty of places to store them. The prices of antiques from the European Celestial Empire were also cheap. Even if he filled up the entire third floor, the remaining four rooms wouldn't cost much. The antiques from the Celestial Empire would become the most valuable collection after more than ten years.
Since William was not going to the Great Celestial Empire, it would take more than ten years for the Great Celestial Empire's antiques to return to the Great Celestial Empire. Now was the time of the stock market crash, so Europe could still receive a lot of rare items.
"Big Brother William, what are you thinking about? Why are you ignoring me?" Tina complained when she saw that William didn't speak.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about buying some antiques from the Great Celestial Empire to put at home. There isn't much furniture in the castle right now, and I like the culture of the Great Celestial Empire. I want to buy some antiques from the Great Celestial Empire to put at home." William said.
Tina curled her lips, "What's so good about those bottles and jars? I have a lot of antiques from the Great Celestial Empire in my house. They are all in the storeroom and no one has touched them for many years."
William smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't like them, as long as you know that those antiques will be very valuable in the future."
Tina curled her lips, "You only care about money."
Seeing that Tina was not interested, William smiled helplessly, "Forget it, you won't understand anyway. Let's talk about something else. Tina, you're going to be 17 years old soon. Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"
"Hmph, Big Brother William, you're not even 20 years old yet. You're just like my mother, always asking me what I want to do in the future. You're not cute at all." Tina complained in a huff.
"Big Brother William, why don't you marry me now? I haven't thought about what I want to do in the future, but my biggest wish right now is to marry you. Big Brother William, let's go secretly and get the marriage certificate, okay?" Tina hugged William's arm and swung it back and forth, causing William to fall into a daze.
Tina laughed proudly when she saw William's perverted expression.
