Chapter 1336

Brandon is the oldest of the four. He didn't show much when dealing with Chenbao in the past. Anyway, he was responsible for the conversion of funds and tax payment, and there was never a problem.

But this time he showed his big brother's style: "it's not difficult to deal with gold ore, isn't it a thousand tons of crude gold ore?"? Listen to me. I've been thinking about it for a long time. "

When the three looked at him, he paused and said, "it's not reliable to fish 1000 tons of gold ore from a ship. We can expand it and find a fleet that sank in the North Atlantic! And we want to open up the news. At that time, we will throw a few tons and dozens of tons of ore and let more salvage companies enter. "

Qin Shiou shrugged: "why? It's also millions of dollars, isn't it? "

"Expand the beneficiary population, increase the credibility of this matter and reduce the risk of our being investigated." Brandon said.

The three nodded to understand, and Brandon continued, "but what I want to do is deal with it in the United States. Why come to Canada? Canadian taxes are terrible. Don't deal with funds here. "

Canada has always been said to be a "country with ten thousand taxes". Their tax system is very complex. It is difficult to use a single number to describe how much tax people pay.

However, there is a simple and crude way to judge, that is, there is a custom festival in Canada called "tax Freedom Day", which is also the most hated Festival by ordinary people.

As the name suggests, everyone's income will be free after tax freedom day. The money earned after this day is their own. But before this day, most people have to pay taxes, and the money earned after this day can enter their own pockets.

This year's tax Freedom Day is June 8, that is, Canadians earn just enough money to pay this year's taxes.

Of course, this festival is only for the ordinary working class. It's useless for the top rich like Qin Shiou and those tramps.

But from this point, we can see how terrible Canada's taxes are. Foreigners only see the good welfare of this country, and then immigrate one after another. When immigrants come in, they will know that they have been cheated - they will pay taxes and pee their pants.

In addition, the famous Fraser Institute has created a comprehensive statistical method. They have created a "Canadian consumer tax index" following the "consumer price index" of the Bureau of statistics.

Canada has a wide range of taxes, including various taxes paid to the federal, provincial and local governments, such as income tax, payroll tax, health tax, business tax, real estate tax, fuel tax, vehicle tax, import tax, tobacco and alcohol tax, etc.

After adding all these taxes together, the total tax of Canadian families last year was $33272, accounting for 42.1% of the average income of Canadian families of $79010. According to the research of Fraser Institute, this can be ranked in the top 10 in the world.

Even more impressive are some countries, such as Sweden's index of 56.6%, Denmark's 55% and Aruba's 59%. Of course, these countries have the smallest gap between the rich and the poor and the best national welfare.

Qin Shiou took out his mobile phone and "click click" for a while, sighed: "Ma Dan, I always thought I wanted to double my assets to become a millionaire this time. In fact, I don't have much in my hand, can I? At least 50% of the tax, even if I can get 200 million, I have to pay 100 million tax?! "

Then he wondered, "there wasn't so much in the past?"

They have auctioned many works of art. Qin Shiou has calculated before that he pays less than 20% tax every time, never less than 50%.

Brandon said, "yes, not so much in the past. I used to use leather bag companies for tax avoidance. You should know that there are many places in the world where the tax is relatively low. For example, in Macao, it is only 12%, and even with the money for up and down management, it is not half of 50%

"However, if the gold ore is brought to Canada for processing, it will not be so simple to conduct overseas tax avoidance. Canada's tax law is much more strict than that of the United States, especially overseas tax collection, Fark, which is absolutely awesome!"

Qin Shiou and Billy are silly at such a discussion. It seems that it is more cost-effective to deal with this batch of gold ore in the United States. Half of the tax amount is too high.

"Is that still in the United States?" Qin Shiou sighed and asked, "I'm worried that Washington will send the navy to steal the gold ore from us."

According to the provisions of the internationally accepted discovery law, if they want to salvage this batch of gold ore and take it to the land of the United States, they have to issue a notice through the media at the beginning of the discovery.

The discovery law is an international salvage law that has been implemented for more than half a century. At the beginning of its establishment, this law was not used to protect sunken ships and treasures, but for properties such as whales and catches that have never been owned by owners.

Later, with the emergence of the international ocean salvage fever, the discovery law was gradually applied to sunken ships. Lawyers believe that because of its long history, sunken ships mean that they have been abandoned by their original owners, and there is no owner like fishing.

For sunken ship salvage companies, the discovery act is a good thing. It is simply interpreted as "Whoever finds it belongs to him". Therefore, almost all ships salvaged in many international waters follow this practice. Whoever finds the sunken ship location and salvages it belongs to him.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is no problem to issue a notice. Whoever finds it, salvages it. This is protected by international law. Ordinary salvors are not capable of looting. It doesn't matter even if they report relevant news.

However, the US government has this ability. What if they get the news and run to cut their beard?

After Qin Shiou said his worry, Brandon and little black shook their heads and said, "you filter it. Don't worry about it. It's just ten tons of gold. It's not worth the U.S. government."

Billy also nodded and said, "yes, don't worry. The U.S. government is not dark enough."

Qin Shiou looked at him and said, "then why did you agree with me to come to Canada to deal with the ore?"

Billy lamented: "what we two consider is not the same thing. You usually don't pay attention to the news and don't know the situation - damn Washington has not only formulated the abandoned sunken ship law, but also wants to cancel the internationally used discovery law and adopt the draft UNESCO Convention on the protection of underwater cultural heritage."

"What the hell is this?" Qin Shiou really didn't pay attention to this news. Little black heard about it, but he didn't take it seriously. As for Brandon? He talks about love all day now, and naturally he doesn't understand it.
