Chapter 651 Assistance
In front of the old Mr. Fox were a few personal materials with photos on them. There were some proofs that they had borrowed money from the old Mr. Fox's financial company, and some bank transfer or check stubs were pasted to prove that they had already transferred the money. Back to old Mr. Fox.

Seeing that old Mr. Fox remained silent, Qingpilian didn't care much about his confrontational attitude.

From the establishment of the Armed Taxation Team to the Federal Tax Service to the present moment, there have been too many challengers in front of them. History tells everyone that they survived in the end, and those who tried to challenge the Federal Tax Service , has completely disappeared in the long river of history.

Old Mr. Fox was not the first, and naturally he would not be the last. They have very rich experience and means to deal with these people.

"According to the Charter, every citizen of the Commonwealth must pay taxes. Mr. Fox, have you paid your taxes?"

If he was asking about the present, the old Mr. Fox would naturally nod his head and say that he has paid. Fox Films has no problems with taxation at all. After all, this is a legitimate business.

And since he came into contact with Lynch, he has noticed that Lynch has a terrible obsession with bills. Even if it is only a small change in money, he will leave various bills or sign.

This also allowed Fox Films, which did not plan to pay taxes in full at the beginning, to pay taxes on time, but they found an accountant to avoid some unnecessary taxes that could be avoided.

But before that, when he was doing usury, he didn't pay taxes.

This in itself is not a very legal business. He can't prove his income is legal, he can't register a company, and he can't get a tax number. Even if he wants to pay taxes, he can't pay them.

It's like a person who robbed a bank turned around and ran to the tax office to declare his income from robbing the bank. It's unbelievable and abnormal. These are precisely the reasons why he appears here today.

Old Mr. Fox lowered his head, stroked his hair with one hand, and then rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, still without saying a word.

Qingpilian had some smug smiles on his face. Sometimes people like the person being interrogated to speak, and sometimes they hope that person can keep his mouth shut.

"We have collected a lot of evidence like this...", he put the documents on the table back together in the file bag, "if you read the charter of the Union, you will understand that no matter what you do, legal or not Legally, as long as your actions generate income, and the income exceeds the standard we collect, you must pay taxes.”

"Whether your money was robbed, defrauded, stolen, or... loan sharked, you have to pay taxes."

"Paying taxes is the duty of every citizen, just as it is the job of the police to catch criminals."

"I don't know why the police didn't arrest you, why didn't the Bureau of Investigation arrest you, but you have to pay taxes, have you admitted that you evaded taxes?"

"Mr. Fox?"

The old Mr. Fox still didn't say a word. According to the scripts of some movies, he should ask for a lawyer now, but he didn't do that, because even if the lawyer came, it wouldn't help.

Lawyers don't want to offend the tax department. It's very miserable to be targeted by this department. After the lawyer comes, at most, he can win some sympathy points for him when sentencing. That's all, nothing else can be changed.

Once the fact of tax evasion is established, it is a felony in the federal government!
His continuous silence caused some displeasure on Qingpilian's face. At this time, he should answer instead of continuing to remain silent.

The corner of Qingpilian's mouth curled up, and the smile on his face disappeared almost invisible, and he changed into a rigid and serious face, "Don't try to use silence to confront us, let me tell you this, the evidence we have now is enough for You'll never get out for the rest of your life."

"At the same time, you will also face a huge fine. Maybe the police or the Bureau of Investigation will investigate your past crimes, and maybe your son will also be implicated."

Old Mr. Fox suddenly raised his head, looking at the green face in front of him, as if he was looking for something.

About ten seconds later, he suddenly spoke and asked a question, "Do you want me to do something?"

Qingpilian nodded slightly, he raised his legs, and took out a delicate cigarette case and a Langsheng lighter from his pocket. After a charming "ding", there was a faint smell of cigarettes in the room.

"You are very clever, Mr. Fox, and we do need your assistance in some matters."

The old Mr. Fox could sense this because the green face in front of him had been threatening him, threatening him with his tax evasion and his sentence.

If the tax bureau's target is really him, the other party can completely ignore him and send him to court and then put him in prison.

There was a reason for talking so much nonsense with him, and the reason was the word "assist," which made him realize that he was probably not their target.

Qingpilian pursed his lips, "We need you to testify against Lynch."

"We noticed before that Lynch helped you turn some illegal income into legal income, and then paid the tax smoothly. You only need to testify against Lynch in court and tell the judge that you laundered through Lynch. Just make as much illegal income as possible.”

"We'll turn you into a tainted witness, plead for your fine and downplay all your prior crimes."

"On the one hand, you can't get out for a lifetime, and on the other hand, it's three to five years. A normal person should know how to choose, what do you think?"

Although the old Mr. Fox was surprised, he didn't show it on his face. He shook his head, "I don't know what you're talking about. Mr. Lynch and I haven't done the things you said."

Qingpilian smiled and stood up, he took the file and walked to the door, "All you have is time, Mr. Fox, you can think about it slowly, but I still want to persuade you to give up some unrealistic ideas, that will be of great help to us. The case isn't helping."

"see you later!"

As soon as he came out of the interrogation room, another guy who looked very imposing greeted him, "What did he say?"

This guy who is talking is the assistant director of the State Taxation Bureau. According to the tax bureau's specifications, he is considered a half-director, with a higher status than the deputy director. Sometimes when the director is away, he will be responsible for handling things that only the director has authority to handle work.

Of course, this is only after he has contacted the director. This is a process issue.

Qingpilian nodded, "Our evidence is solid, Fox can't escape, but I don't think he will confess to Lynch's important role."

While talking, the two walked towards the bungalow across the parking lot.

"Don't tell Lynch?" The assistant director frowned, "Then it's not easy."

The investigation against Lynch actually didn't start here. The Sabine City Taxation Bureau had already noticed these people when it investigated the Fox and Lynch money laundering case.

Their money laundering methods are somewhat unexpected. They don't have any high-tech or profit-making methods. They are so simple and easy to use that people throughout the state and even the country have begun to use this method to launder money.

In addition to the loss of face of the Sabine City Taxation Bureau, the State Office's Joint Investigation Bureau conducted an investigation on the relevant people, but later because of a series of coincidences, many things happened, so that the investigation was forced to suspend—— The main thing is that Lynch picked himself out and returned the steps to the tax bureau.

At that time, the whole case had a great impact on the society. There were a lot of protests and complaints against the tax bureau's violent law enforcement every year. Once a nationwide demonstration was triggered, the people in the tax department in York State would fall down again. a large piece.

In order to stop the spread of this momentum, the two sides used Michael's imprisonment as an opportunity for reconciliation and ended the confrontation.

The confrontation is over, but that doesn't mean the investigation is about to end. They continue to collect evidence and are always ready to pick up Lynch elsewhere.

But later, Lynch came into contact with the president and other high-level officials of the country, and quickly made a fortune, which made the tax bureau's idea of ​​quietly solving Lynch in private fail, and they sealed the file until a few days ago.

A few days ago, a well-known figure contacted the Commissioner of the York State Taxation Bureau through certain channels, hoping that he could investigate Lynch, and it would be even better if Lynch could be pulled down.

Big people have great energy, and so does Lynch, so the final result of this incident is that the director went to the General Administration to "study", and the assistant director took full charge of the subsequent investigation.

Before the director left, he gave the assistant director enough power. In addition to the previous incidents, Lynch made the tax bureau lose face. Combined with other factors, it finally led to this matter.

Standing outside the office door, the assistant director patted Qingpilian's arm, "It's fine if we don't move this time, since we move, we must hit the vital point, do you understand what I mean?"

Qingpilian nodded vigorously, "I know what to do."

At noon, I don't know whether people forgot or because of other reasons, no one brought any food to old Mr. Fox, only a little water, he had been hungry for a long time, and his physical strength was gradually disappearing.

In the afternoon, he slept for a while, sleep can slow down the exhaustion of physical strength, and at the same time make him less hungry.

In a daze, he had a wry smile on his face. This might be the first time he has been hungry for so long since he was an adult...

Sure enough, it was the same feeling as when I was a child, and it was unforgettable.

……

I don't know how long I've been asleep, but the sudden sound of the door opening woke up the old Mr. Fox. He opened his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment. After a brief absence, his eyes quickly fell on the person who came in.

It was Qingpilian, and there was a tray in his hand with some food on it, which exuded a delicious smell.

"Sorry, there are too many things at noon. I forgot to remind those people to give you a lunch. It shouldn't be too late, right?" He put the plate on the table with a smile.

Some potato chips, a small bowl of vegetable puree, some boiled chicken and a sausage, the bright color and aroma made Old Fox swallow his saliva.
