United states tax collector

Chapter 366 The old fox who retreated when faced with difficulties

"Speaker Nanxi, whether this bill will shake the foundation of our United States is not up to you, it is up to the entire Congress!"

Although Nan Xi is the Speaker of the House of Representatives and has a strong interference power in the House, this bill will definitely be passed as long as it gets 218 votes in the House of Representatives, and he now feeds and houses so many members, so There is no need to be too afraid of the other party.

"Do you know what you are talking about!"

Nan Xi has dominated American politics for decades. Let alone ordinary people, even high-ranking officials such as the President, Vice President, and Secretary of State must speak well in front of him.

But now, being yelled at by a young boy like David in front of her face naturally made her quite angry.

"As far as I know, you announced more than a week ago that you will not run for the next Speaker of the House of Representatives, nor will you hold any position in Congress. Since you have chosen to retire bravely, just retire peacefully. Why bother taking a trip into this muddy water?”

"What if I have to go?"

Yes, due to his advanced age and various reasons, Nan Xi did announce more than a week ago that he would not run for Speaker of the House of Representatives again.

But even if he doesn't run for election, with her strong character, if she is afraid of a young boy like David, then her name won't be Nancy Galisi!

"Then I'll be afraid that you won't be able to guarantee your safety later in life!"

"Haha, I have never been to Loli Island, you can't threaten me!"

David was startled when he heard this. He knew that someone among the previous congressmen must have leaked the bill, but he did not expect that even the Loli Island incident was leaked.

From this point of view, the people who leaked the bill are probably the congressmen who have been to Loli Island!

Seeing David's dazed expression, Nan Xi thought that there was nothing the other party could do to her, and she couldn't help but feel proud as she raised the corner of her mouth, but David's next words made her expression freeze.

"You have never been to Loli Island, but your husband is known as the 'Capitol Hill Stock God'. I just don't know if he can withstand our investigation!"

Nan Xi's smile froze when she heard David's words. She replied with a face: "My husband has his own business, and it has been reviewed in many aspects. What else do you want to check?"

“On May 28 this year, a car accident occurred at an intersection five miles away from your husband’s home winery. However, when facing the police, your husband’s speech was slurred, his feet were unsteady, his breath exuded a strong smell of alcohol, and he tried to speak to the police. The police showed the membership card of a certain foundation, and the subsequent blood alcohol concentration test also proved that your husband was indeed driving drunk at the time, and drugs were even detected in his body..."

"etc……"

Nan Xi frowned and interrupted, and said impatiently: "Although my husband was indeed involved in this accident, he was acquitted in the end. You can't make a fuss about it!"

"Yes, you spent a lot of money to hire California's top operations team, including crisis management experts, Keimer who has handled public opinion crises for Harvard University and Nike, the well-connected public relations guru House Jeep, and the most famous barrister in California, Kirk. Well, these people are really awesome.”

"However, a week before being summoned by the court, Congress was discussing a 'chip bill'. According to this bill, the American semiconductor industry will receive US$52 billion in subsidies."

"What's interesting is that just before the bill was voted on, your husband bought a large amount of stocks in chip companies such as semiconductor giant Nvidia and made tens of millions of dollars overnight. Am I right?"

Nancy's husband is named Paulo Gerisi.

This guy can definitely be considered "notorious" in the United States. In addition to the drunk driving and insider trading that David just mentioned, he once killed his brother when he was 16 years old because of threatening driving.

Of course, the most important thing for this guy to be able to live happily despite his misdeeds is to curry favor with Shang Nanxi, the powerful Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Otherwise, he would have been in prison long ago.

"Haha, these things you mentioned are all well-known things, and they have gone through multiple investigations by the court and hearings, but they can't prove my husband's guilt!"

"But what do you think if I talk to three gentlemen, Monroe Antonio, Howard Archibald, and DuBois Hamilton?"

Nan Xi, who had a normal expression at first, suddenly changed his expression after hearing these three names.

These three people are executives from chip giants Invista, Intel, and Qualcomm. Of course, this is not the point.

The point is that the chip bill that David mentioned before, the biggest beneficiaries are these three giants.

In return, the three giants sent these three executives to reach a series of exchanges of interests with her before the bill was passed.

And now that David knows about these three contacts at the time, if these three people are taken away for investigation, with David's methods, it is really hard to guarantee whether these three people will say anything.

Thinking of this, the wrinkles between Nan Xi's eyebrows deepened.

She said how could David be so confident? It turned out that he knew something about the inside story afterwards.

"Okay, Speaker Nan Xi, I have no intention of going against you, but you don't want to interfere with what I do. The best outcome is for us all to stay in peace, what do you think?"

Although Nan Xi announced that she will no longer run for the next Speaker of the House of Representatives, her term is not over yet.

And David is now going to push such a bill in Congress, so it is better to let the other party retreat when they see the difficulty. There is no need to completely tear the face with the other party to avoid causing a lot of trouble at that time.

"Humph, David, I will remember it today!"

Nan Xi has been a fierce and even aggressive person in front of the world for so many years, but the persona is just a persona, most of the time it is just to show it to the public, don't really think she is just a reckless woman.

Being able to serve as the Speaker of the House of Representatives in Congress for so many years, her political wisdom can definitely be described as top-notch.

Now that she is about to step down, political achievements have no meaning to her at all.

And the reason why she came to David was just to see if she could deal with David and let the three major groups owe him a big favor.

But she didn't expect David to know some inside information about the chip bill, so after thinking about it, she finally decided to stop.

After all, David's methods are extraordinary. If she really wants to continue to pester him, the other party will make a big fuss about the chip bill, and she may not be able to retreat peacefully.

"Wait, Speaker Nan Xi..."

Nan Xi, who had just walked to the door and wanted to push the door to leave, turned back.

"What I want to know is, how did you know I was here?"

In order to avoid trouble, David has been very low-key during this period and has never revealed any news, so he is also very curious about how the other party found him.

Nan Xi did not mean to answer, gave a contemptuous look, and then pushed the door and left.

"It seems that she retreated in the face of difficulties..."

After all, the other party is a politician who has been active in the United States for decades, and also holds an important position such as Speaker of the House of Representatives, so after seeing the other party retreat, Sean finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, by the way, who are the three people you just mentioned?"

"Intel and other chip company executives, and she and her husband have some interests."

"So that's it..."

Sean said why the other party was so uncharacteristic when he heard these three names, so that's it...

But then again, Nan Xi is about to step down, and David knows some of his handles, so if he is the other party, he can't fight David to the death.

He is about to retire and enjoy his old age. If it's not a matter of life and death, who would be willing to risk their life!

David took out his mobile phone, found Gavin's number and dialed it. The call was connected quickly. He asked: "What's going on? Has my whereabouts been leaked?"

The last assassination incident left him with a little psychological trauma.

Now that Nan Xi knows his whereabouts, if the Freemasons know about it, and then give him explosives or killers, wouldn't it be dangerous?

So this problem must be solved first.

"No, as you instructed, I have been closely monitoring your whereabouts and safety, but I haven't found anything."

"Okay, I'll ask the CIA."

David hung up the phone, dialed Elvis' number, and repeated what he had said to Gavin before.

"Whereabouts... We at the CIA have indeed not detected any leaks, what's wrong?"

Elvis thought about it and didn't think of what went wrong.

"Just now, Nan Xi from the House of Representatives came to find me..."

David told him about Nan Xi's arrival.

"I understand. I think... it should be our director who leaked your information to Nan Xi."

"Your director?"

"Yes, the director of our CIA Intelligence Department is called Sawyer Holder. He has a close relationship with Nan Xi. If Nan Xi can find you, it should be through him!"

"What is your relationship with him?"

"We are just superiors and subordinates. There is no big relationship."

"Is that so... Then I will go back to Washington in the next two days and tell me his whereabouts!"

Since this director can leak his whereabouts to Nan Xi, David naturally cannot keep him any longer.

"Okay, I know."

After hearing this, Elvis, who was in the office of CIA, instantly turned red.

The last time David asked him to give a list of the three major forces' placement personnel, he actually thought of writing the name of this director.

It's just that this director is not from the three major forces. In the end, after some entanglement, in order to avoid causing David's displeasure, he still held back.

But what was unexpected was that Nan Xi actually came forward to find David, and also involved the director of their CIA Intelligence Department.

In this case, he can't be blamed!

...

Two days later in the evening.

Washington, at the gate of Arlington Mansion.

Countless sports cars and luxury cars came to the gate one after another, and celebrities from Washington's upper class walked in with their female companions.

In the lobby of the mansion, in an inconspicuous corner, David and others came here early.

At this time, they either became bearded men or bearded men. In short, they all looked like they had changed their appearances and were completely "changed".

"Hehe, the CIA's camouflage technology is really strong. I guess my mother can't recognize me here!"

Munson looked at himself on the screen of his mobile phone and couldn't help but smile.

After they came back from Texas, they received a message from Elvis saying that Sawyer would come to attend the charity dinner here today, so they came here too.

In order not to attract attention, Elvis deliberately asked his disguised personnel to dress up David and his party.

While talking, it seemed that almost everyone at the scene had arrived.

At this time, the host of the dinner walked onto the stage and said, "Thank you all for coming to the charity dinner hosted by Mr. Harrington. Mr. Harrington will be here later due to his busy schedule, so I am sorry to everyone!"

"But it doesn't matter, the charity auction will be held as usual."

"Mr. Harrington will select 50 fine pieces from his collection for auction, and then donate them to the people affected by the flood in Georgia!"

As soon as the host finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out at the scene.

After a while, the applause gradually dissipated.

I saw a staff member bring up a blue and white porcelain vase and place it in the most conspicuous position in the center area.

"This is an official kiln collection produced in the Qing Dynasty of China. The starting price is now 500,000 US dollars. Each bid must not be less than 50,000 US dollars. Bidding starts now!"

The host gave the celebrities below a detailed introduction to the year information of the vase, and then started bidding.

"500,000!"

"600,000!"

"800,000!"

"..."

As the host finished speaking, the celebrities on the scene began to bid.

Not long after.

This collection was raised to a high price of 2 million US dollars.

This also made Munson, who was watching secretly, sigh: "These damn rich people are really generous..."

"Hehe, taking this collection can not only make a big splash in front of a group of celebrities, but also win a good impression of disaster relief donations in front of the media. Why not for them!"

"What do you think, if we arrest these people present and interrogate them one by one, can we squeeze out some "oil and water"?"

Jerry's words made Munson and Larin look stunned.

Not to mention, this idea is really good.

To put it nicely, these people are celebrities in the upper class of Washington, and to put it bluntly, they are a group of capitalists.

How can there be a clean capitalist?

If it is really investigated on the charge of tax evasion, it will be a sure thing!

"Don't think about these nonsense here, we are not here for this today."

David was a little puzzled. According to the information given by Elvis, his director should be here, but why hasn't he arrived yet?

"Deal, congratulations Mr. LeBron!"

As the few people were talking, the host on the stage shouted, and the transaction of the first collection was completed.
