Additionally, Du Heng would provide him with another source of income, namely laundering the money into cash and gold of equal value to Du Heng.
The United States has some of the strictest tax audits in the world. In the United States, it is much easier to commit murder and escape than to evade taxes.
The Left Army Governor’s Office secretly increases shale oil production by a large amount every year. The IRS (US Internal Revenue Service) does not monitor their actual production capacity, but monitors every penny that flows to the Left Army Governor’s Office. The annual increase in shale oil production reaches hundreds of millions of US dollars. Because this shale oil must be kept secret from Victoria, it cannot go through the normal sales process. The oil was sold privately to the Getty family. The Getty family first had to find a way to wash this shale oil and put it into their own refinery. Then, by fudging the cost of adding so-called loss reduction equipment and technology, they can blend this shale oil into their refineries, refine it, and then sell it through normal channels.
The refined petroleum products were laundered through the Getty family’s global sales, turning into large, anonymous, unnumbered, and untraceable amounts of cash and precious metals, which were then returned to Du Heng. Including money laundering costs, at least 50% of the money is lost in this round trip.
In other words, of the 100 million US dollars worth of shale oil produced and sold secretly by the Left Army Governor’s Office, only about 50% ultimately returned to Wu Yongzhen in the form of cash.
Even so, it was still acceptable for Wu Yongzhen. After all, he didn’t care about selling his father’s land. He only cares about earning 50 million US dollars without any effort. As for how much loss he suffered, it was none of his business, because all production costs were covered by the bankruptcy.
Because of this deep-rooted affair, Rachel’s father also valued Du Heng very much, and the two had a good personal relationship. Every time Du Heng visited the Getty family, his father would receive him personally.
As Du Heng slowly brought his yacht to the Getty family’s dock, he did not realize that a pair of eyes were watching him intently from the shadows.
Charlie had already seen him before he even reached the shore, for no other reason than the man’s cultivation level.
Du Heng’s cultivation level was slightly higher than Song Ruyu, but he looked older, at least around forty years old. So, overall, his cultivation speed was not faster than Song Ruyu.
Rachel’s mother, Shirley, was waiting there. As Du Heng got off the ship and walked onto the dock, he immediately stepped forward respectfully and whispered, “This subordinate will provide for Deputy Commissioner Du.”
Du Heng smiled faintly and said calmly, “Madam, you don’t need to be so polite. I’m here on the orders of the Commander-in-Chief. I need to first confirm whether your husband is aware of the information your daughter, Rachel, received from the Rothschild family tonight?”
Shirley answered without hesitation, “Don’t worry, Deputy Minister Du, my husband doesn’t know anything about this.”
“Good.” Du Heng nodded with satisfaction and said, “Tonight, the Grand Commander wants to buy spot oil from your husband, hoping to make a little profit using this rare secret information. There are some details that require your cooperation. Is your husband here?”
Shirley nodded and said respectfully, “Reporting to Deputy Commissioner Du, my husband is already waiting at home.”
“That’s good.” Du Heng smiled and waved, saying, “Go see him.”
Hiding in the shadows, Charlie did not follow Du Heng to the Getty family. He didn’t care about the private transactions between the two parties. What he really cared about was this Assistant Commissioner Du. He was like the vanguard sent by the Tiger Bee Group. As long as he could leave traces on it, he would definitely be able to find its nest.
Apart from that, there was another important thing: he needed to know the facial features of Du Heng, the Deputy Commander. Apart from the headquarters being completely isolated from the outside world, the other members of the Warriors Den Society, including the Five Military Commandos and various scholars, all lived in seclusion. Du Heng, as the Deputy Commander of the Left Military Command and the Supreme Commander’s confidant, was bound to be in frequent contact with the outside world. Without any clues, even if he ran into someone from the Warriors Den Society directly, he would not be able to find any clues. But once he knows his facial features, it will be much easier to find him in the future. The ground network system can search for its whereabouts 24 hours a day throughout the world.
Now that Du Heng had surfaced, almost every step he took from now on would be under the control of his own underground network system!
