Chapter 12 In a society with rules and order, IQ can beat everything

"Is there Michael's family information?"

After wandering outside for a while and making sure no one was following him, Lynch came to Mr. Fox's office on the ground floor.

There was a trace of pity for the weak on his face, which was the greatest sorrow of a man like Mr. Fox in this age.

They are rich, maybe not as good as those big capitalists, but more than enough than the average small businessman, but they can't even rent a better office.

They can't see the light, neither their business nor their wealth will be protected by the law, but will attract legal action, so they can only work in this damp, musty underground office.

The mildew in the corners and some yellowed trim made Lynch want to laugh, if he had so much money and resources, he would have taken off.

The "business" between him and Mr. Fox is still in the honeymoon period, and Lynch, who can provide more than [-] change every day, has become the person that Mr. Fox pays the most attention recently.

At first he thought Lynch couldn't do it, but over time Lynch got faster and faster, and now he can give change three or four times a day.

There may have been a significant decrease in the number of times compared to the dozen or so times on the first day, but the amount of change he provided was increasing, which was also extremely effective in helping Mr. Fox to turn the money into deposits as soon as possible. bank money.

Every day before he gets off work, he will take the initiative to declare his income once, and let people from the tax bureau come to watch them pour out the money from the coin box of each washing machine, and directly deposit it into the bank after counting.

Large amounts of money deposited into the bank require tax documents to prove that the money is legal before the bank will allow them to enter the system.

This also means that Mr. Fox's money is bleaching faster and faster. It may take a few months before he can rent a street-facing facade in the most prosperous part of Sabine City, in a splendid environment. work in.

This also keeps the relationship between the two good. Lynch makes some money, but it also keeps Mr. Fox from being troubled by some problems. This is a very suitable business.

After Lynch came here today, the first sentence was to ask Michael's family information. The other party repeatedly troubled him and punched him. It was impossible for him to pretend that nothing had happened. He wanted to revenge.

Mr. Fox frowned, and quickly stretched out again, "You shouldn't compete with him, you know, he has a 'license', and he will definitely not be the one who suffers in the end!"

People with "licenses" don't mean people with car license plates, but people who work for the federal government and have law enforcement powers. These people are troublesome, and they will naturally see each other as a whole.

When you deal with someone, you may not deal with him alone, but the whole group.

There was such an interesting incident. A lawyer was fined by a mounted policeman for illegal parking. The lawyer and his friends joked that not only did he not need to pay the fine, but he could also ask the mounted policeman to apologize. The friends did not believe it.

Soon the lawyer took the local police station to court, and after a fierce court battle, he won the case. As he said, not only did he not need to pay any fines, but the mounted police were also present in court and in front of the media. He apologized.

But is this the end of the story?

No.

The lawyer has won his case but lost his life, and since the day he won the case, police departments across seventeen federal states have been watching him.

On the expressway, he was forced to stop by eleven expressway precincts on his own section, and pressed him eleven times on the hot expressway ground, frisked and photographed.

Is this over?

No, until now he has been living in fear, the police will come to the house to ask for trouble if he has nothing to do, and there are various reasons, such as someone heard screams from his home, for example, someone called the police his address was invaded... …

Every time he repaired the door, it was smashed with a hammer, and then a group of mobile police rushed into his home, lifted him and his wife from the bed and threw him into the yard...

So here, it's best not to compete with people with "licenses". If the entire group of the other party is angered, Lynch's next life will be a nightmare, especially the object he wants to compete with is the tax bureau.

The tax office would keep an eye on every transaction he made, and would encourage those who dealt with him to report him, and as long as one was verified, they could put Lynch in jail.

But Lynch smiled, "I just want to send some gifts to resolve the conflict. He shouldn't think I'm humiliating him, right?"

Mr. Fox hesitated. He couldn't tell whether what Lynch said was true or false, but he said what he had to say anyway. Even if he didn't tell Lynch, Lynch would get it from other places. thing.

At that time, in turn, he will have a gap with himself, so it is better to say it directly here.

Lynch took Michael's information seriously, and then chatted with Mr. Fox again. If nothing else, at the current speed, Mr. Fox's money should be in the bank in about two or three months. .

That's a good thing, and at the same time Mr. Fox has a new question, "Lynch, my friend, I know you're a very thoughtful young man. How do you think I can make my business legal?"

Then he smiled, "I finally got rid of these troubles, and I don't want to get into it easily. Maybe you have some methods that I didn't think of?"

Mr. Fox's business is actually lending money to people in need and charging interest, but his interest is much higher than the maximum interest cap set by federal law.

And in some agreements, there is still illegal compound interest, which makes his business so embarrassing that even if he can get the money back, the money cannot be deposited in the bank.

If the transaction is done through a bank, the other party can directly convict Mr. Fox by providing the agreement and the bank statement - the interest he is demanding exceeds the provisions of federal law.

Not only will he be investigated by prosecutors and the tax office, but the money he lent can't be recovered. The law will not recognize the legal effect of the agreement, and it will not support Mr. Fox's claim for loan and interest through any legitimate means. .

This is also the problem that the vast majority of people in this industry are facing. They can't solve these problems. Even if their money is bleached, it will eventually turn into gray.

Lynch didn't answer, just shrugged, actually he knew how to fix the problem, but he wouldn't say it now.

After chatting with Mr. Fox here for a while, Lynch left contentedly. After walking around outside, he came to the place where Michael lived.

Michael's home lives in an upscale community in Sabine, and he has a nice family.

His wife is very beautiful and looks very young. She should be a full-time housewife. Every day is surrounded by her husband and children. The rest of the time is spent watching TV and socializing with the housewife group.

His son, Michael Jr., is a high school student who attends a nearby private high school with average grades, has had several girlfriends, and is interested in everything but studies.

Simple, common, very common low-level privileged family.
