During lunch, his mother and Tina were really shocked by William's appetite. Not only did he eat three big pieces of grilled salmon, he also ate two big pieces of bread, a vegetable and fruit salad, and a glass of fruit juice before he was full.
Lena asked worriedly, "William, are you really okay to eat so much? Should we go to the hospital for a checkup? "
William wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "It's okay, mom. I've been like this for the past few months. Look at my arms, they have grown muscles. I'm much stronger than before." After saying that, he even rolled up his sleeves to show his arms and made an arm folding gesture.
Lena looked at the bulging muscles on William's arms and was shocked. Although William was tall, he didn't have any muscles and was as thin as a bamboo pole. Now that she saw William's strong upper arms, she nodded with satisfaction, "En, you look better now. Before, you were as thin as a bamboo pole and ugly to look at. Since there's no problem, I'm relieved."
Tina pinched William's arms and touched William's chest with a love-struck look.
"Tina, sit properly and be a lady. If you continue like this, I'll send you home." Lena looked at Tina's love-struck look and said angrily.
"Okay, Auntie Lena, I know I'm wrong. I promise I'll be a lady." Tina was scared by her mother and quickly returned to her seat. She sat properly and elegantly drank her fruit, looking like an obedient girl.
William looked at Tina with an amused expression. He winked at Tina and made a funny face, which made Tina burst into laughter.
When Tina saw her mother staring at her, she quickly sat properly and said with a wronged expression, "You can't blame me, Auntie Lena. It was Brother William who made a face at me. He's so annoying. He purposely made me laugh and made me look bad. Auntie Lena, you have to help me teach Brother William a lesson. I was framed by him."
"Then just stop looking at William," Lena said as she rolled her eyes.
"How can I do that? I just like to look at Big Brother William. Big Brother William is too handsome," Tina said to her mother, Lena, with an aggrieved expression.
"God, how could I let a love-struck fool like you stay in my house? William, are you done eating? If you're done, then get out and wait for your guests in the hall. I'll bring Tina to tidy up the garden in the afternoon and then go to the forest to see if there are any mushrooms. I don't have time for you." Lena saw that Tina was pretending to be wronged, so she had no choice but to chase William away. She still liked Tina very much. With Tina's company in Oxford Castle these few months, she was not lonely.
Seeing that the fire was on him, William had no choice but to put down his cutlery and wipe his mouth, "Alright, mom, I'm full. I'm going to get busy now. Bye bye mom, bye bye Tina!"
Seeing that William was about to leave, Tina giggled and secretly blew a kiss to William. She looked at William with a blushing face as he left.
"Alright, what are you looking at? Are you done eating? If you're done eating, come with me to tidy up the garden." Lena looked at Tina speechlessly. She really felt that Tina was hopeless now. She was so obsessed with her son that she was dying.
At 1: 30 in the afternoon, Christmas reported that the guests had arrived. William stood at the entrance of the castle and saw Anthony and his group of more than ten people arriving on time. He shook hands with everyone and greeted them.
Barney and Christmas used a scanner to scan everyone and their bags. They nodded at William, indicating that there was no problem. William led everyone to the reception room on the first floor. Barney and the others waited outside the door of the reception room. After the servants served delicious drinks, William said, "Sign the confidentiality agreement first."
William took the confidentiality agreement from Anthony and read it carefully. After he felt that there was no problem, he got everyone to sign their names. He said, "Anthony, this is my income from the futures market and this year's other income report. Take a look and help me come up with a reasonable tax plan."
Anthony took the report and shared it with the two accompanying middle-aged lawyers. Ten minutes later, when the three of them saw that William had earned 3.416 billion dollars in the stock market this time, the three of them gasped in shock.
Anthony said with a shocked face, "Boss, this is really shocking."
After the three of them finished reading it, they handed it to the other lawyers. When everyone finished reading it, they all looked at William in surprise.
After a few minutes of silence in the conference room, lawyer Lang Te, who was in charge of tax issues, said, "Mr. Devonshire, I just read your information. To be honest, your tax issues look very troublesome, but in fact, they are very simple to deal with.
I just calculated that nearly two-thirds of the funds in the futures market of the Swiss National Bank were bought on the Japanese stock market. The other funds were from the United States, England, France, Germany, Bullfighting, and Helan. Among them, the United States earned only 400 million dollars, England earned 300 million dollars, the other countries added up to about 700 million dollars, and Japan earned two billion dollars. "
"Is there a problem?" William asked.
Lawyer Lang Te said, "Of course there is a problem, Mr. Devonshire. The real account of the money is actually your registered account in the British Virgin Islands. The account in the Swiss National Bank is just your gambling account with the National Bank. To be honest, your funds have not entered those countries at all."
William stood up in surprise. "How is that possible?" Then, William's face suddenly became ecstatic. "So, I don't have to pay capital gains tax in other countries?"
Lawyer Lang Te said with a smile, "You don't have to be surprised, Mr. Devonshire. The best choice you made this time was to choose to entrust the National Bank to operate for you. If these countries want to investigate, they can only investigate the Swiss National Bank, and I believe that they can't find anything.
Hearing this, William understood. "You mean, the 11.6 billion that I shorted in the stock market with the Swiss National Bank was the National Bank's money? I didn't have any direct financial transactions with those countries. The money I earned was also the gambling money from the National Bank. I just paid a 3% transaction fee to the National Bank."
"That's right, Mr. Devonshire. That's right. Otherwise, the Swiss National Bank wouldn't be the safest bank in the world with the most comprehensive service. But to avoid trouble, I suggest you pay 20% capital gains tax of the 400 million dollars in the United States.
After all, the tax authorities in the United States are too powerful. If you don't pay this money, they will definitely keep an eye on you all day long. You don't have to care about the taxes of other countries. We can directly push the tax issues of those countries to the National Bank, "Lawyer Lang Te said with a smile.
Hearing Lawyer Lang Te's words, William laughed. The Swiss National Bank was indeed the best bank in the world. They really thought about what their customers thought. Originally, he thought that he had to pay 680 million dollars in taxes to the United States, and his heart ached for many days. Now, he only had to pay 80 million dollars in taxes. William's heart was bursting with joy.
80 million dollars was nothing compared to 680 million dollars. After being excited for a long time, William calmed down and asked, "Why did the Swiss National Bank do this? The funds were all taken from their bank. Doesn't that mean that they have to pay taxes in those countries?"
This afternoon at 2: 00 in the afternoon, it will be forcefully promoted by the urban category.
