This thought that suddenly occurred deep in his heart shocked Vladimir himself. Vladimir actually knew more or less about the history of his family's fortune, nothing more than those things in the 1990s...
…
To be fair, Vladimir is very reluctant to become the heir to the family business in this way. In contrast, he hopes that his father will be safe.
Because my father was suddenly invited to have tea by the prosecutor's office, he did not go back to his manor, but went directly to his parents' residence.
As soon as he saw his mother, Mrs. Sofia, Vladimir immediately felt that his mother's face looked a little haggard.
"Mother."
Sophia was sitting on the sofa in a daze. When she saw her son coming, she forced out a smile.
Mother and son could never get around the topic of their father drinking tea.
Mrs. Sofia told Vladimir that she actually didn’t know what was going on at the moment, but she would try her best to find out through the family’s connections and resources, and would notify her immediately as soon as there were results.
Vladimir was also anxious in his heart, silently praying that his father would be okay.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, my father's good friend Polov called Mrs. Sophia.
"Madam, I found out that it was the merger and acquisition of the Siberian Tourism Company two years ago. At that time, 200 million US dollars in taxes were evaded through means. It could have been done perfectly, but there was a small flaw and someone caught it, so this
A total of US$600 million will be paid each time plus fines, and now what you need to do is pay back the tax."
"Is it okay if you make up for it?" Mrs. Sophia is not a flower vase.
"That should be it. Let's do it. Tomorrow morning you can go to the Procuratorate to meet Maxim and learn more about the specific situation. I have opened up the relevant channels for you. You go and see Prosecutor Altin and he will take you there.
Yes, remember, this matter must be kept confidential."
Sofia thanked Polov gratefully, and after hanging up the phone, she habitually crossed herself on her chest and murmured: "Amen, God bless you."
There was no need for Sofia to hide this matter from Vladimir. After seeing that there was a high probability that it would be fine if he paid back the taxes, his hanging heart was half relieved.
"Mother, do you need to bring a lawyer with you tomorrow?" Vladimir suddenly asked in order to prevent the prosecutor's office from setting a trap.
Sophia nodded. This was the same as what she had considered. With a lawyer present, the other party would not dare to mess around.
"Son, you just arranged this matter for Peter and asked him to implement it as soon as possible."
Vladimir did not expect that his mother would actually ask him to make arrangements for his father's secretary Peter. After a little hesitation, he agreed.
"Peter, two things. The first thing is to raise 600 million US dollars overnight and must be done before ten o'clock tomorrow morning. The second thing is to inform the lawyer and wait for us at the prosecutor's office before eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Peter nodded and quickly went to implement these things.
Obviously, the first one is much trickier.
In the major banks in Moscow, the family has quite a lot of deposits, but they need to raise 600 million at once, and Peter still needs to communicate with the presidents of the major banks.
The phone calls lasted until one o'clock in the morning, and Peter finally settled the $600 million deal.
…
Vladimir got up early. When he got up, Peter was still sitting on the sofa and taking a nap. The servant on the side saw this and quickly patted Peter.
Peter was startled and immediately woke up from his dream.
When he saw the young master, he was quite surprised that he had already gotten up before seven o'clock.
"Master, everything is settled. All you need to do is provide your tax bureau account number. If nothing else happens, lawyer Ma Wei will be at the Procuratorate soon."
…
In the morning, Sofia took Vladimir, accompanied by bodyguards, and drove straight to the prosecutor's office. With the help of Prosecutor Altin, they met Maxim, who had been detained all night.
When Maxim saw them coming, he couldn't help but laugh.
Although his face still looked a little haggard.
Maxim also confirmed that what Polov said last night was true.
But Maxim also told them that this time the Siberian Tourism Company owned by the family would have to be sold.
When Vladimir heard that his father was going to sell the Siberia Tourism Company, he was quite surprised. You must know that the tourism company owned by their family basically monopolizes the tourism business in some of the most beautiful places in Siberia.
Foreign tourists or domestic tourists, if they want to travel to places with beautiful scenery, they can only go through this travel company.
Vladimir is not clear about the profits that this travel company brings to his family, but he feels that if nothing unexpected happens, the annual profits will be at least more than one billion.
It can be seen that my father is still quite reluctant to sell the Siberia Tourism Company.
But there is really no other way at the moment. Only in this way can we protect ourselves wisely.
When the tax bureau received a transfer of US$600 million from the Ivan family, it immediately notified the prosecutor's office...
At 11 o'clock in the morning, Maxim, accompanied by his family, left by car through the small side door of the Procuratorate.
In the afternoon, the documents sold by Siberia Travel Company were signed.
The Siberian Tourism Company, estimated at US$4 billion, was acquired by another wealthy family in Mao Zedong, the Yeluo family, for US$1.5 billion.
Vladimir accompanied his father throughout the process.
When he saw the agreement being signed, the muscles on his father's face visibly trembled several times.
The Ye Luo family?
The first thing Vladimir did when he returned to the manor was to ask his secretary Andrei to collect information about the Yeluo family.
"Andrei, the sooner the better." After saying this, Vladimir walked out of the villa quite unhappy.
The butler Sergey followed closely behind him.
"Sergey, get me some dogs."
"Master, how many do you want?"
"Four or five."
"Don't you have it at home?"
Vladimir glanced at him, "Stop talking nonsense, go and buy it from outside."
Sergey did not dare to neglect and hurriedly asked people to prepare.
An hour later, several purchased dogs were brought to the manor.
"Throw them into the tiger park." Sergey looked at these dogs, and he felt that these were the incarnations of the Yeroou family.
Sergey was shocked and said, "Master, my husband and wife have specifically asked you not to feed live animals to tigers."
"Sergey, if you continue to behave like a woman, believe it or not, I will throw you away too."
When Sergey heard this, he immediately shut up obediently.
To Vladimir's surprise, when several dogs were thrown into the tiger park, "Hero" and "Victory" looked at the dogs like idiots.
In contrast, these dogs were full of aura. They lined up in a row and barked at the two tigers...
"Hero" and "Victory" continue to behave like idiots, allowing the dogs to provoke them.
Finally, the "hero" couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him...
