Chapter 397: Two People Fighting
Wait a minute...

Kaqila seemed to have thought of something, so she put away her thoughts and looked at Windsor and asked, "I heard some rumors that David seems to be trying to win over our former president. As far as I know, the former president is determined to make a comeback in 24 years. What do you think about this?"

"This is not a rumor, it should be true. But don't worry, Madam Vice President. Although this bill has passed the Senate with your support, if our current president really refuses to sign it and is impeached, then you will still have to sign this bill!"

"Besides, you will still be in office for nearly two years. During these two years, both the IRS and David will surely rely on you a lot..."

Windsor's meaning is very clear, that is, they are still of great value now, and this value is much greater than that of the former president.

Therefore, as long as they negotiate or strive for it, even if David had previously offered some price in order to win over the former president's family, it is not impossible to reverse it.

Kaqila nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Windsor's statement, and then she immediately ordered: "Without further delay, we should go to the IRS and have a good 'negotiation' with David."

According to her status as vice president, she is qualified to summon anyone who wants to meet her to her residence, except the president.

But at this time, Kaqila no longer cared about so much in order to show her sincerity. She planned to lower her posture in order to win David's full support at that time.

……

Half an hour later, at the gate of the State Taxation Bureau.

A convoy arrived at the door, and Ivanka and her daughter got out of one of the Maybach cars.

But just as they were about to step through the gate, a loud noise from behind forced them to stop.

Looking back, I saw that another convoy had arrived here.

"Father, this is the Vice President's motorcade!"

Ivanka recognized the owner of the convoy at a glance and reminded him with a frown.

Upon hearing this, the man in the red scarf was a little surprised, but his face soon darkened.

But before they could think more, Kachila and her chief of staff Windsor walked down from the stopped convoy.

They were also quite surprised when they saw Ivanka and his daughter standing at the door.

But Kachila quickly reacted, pretending nothing had happened and walked up to greet him, "Mr. Thompson, what a coincidence..."

"Yes, Madam Vice President, what a coincidence..."

Even though Kachila is now his "number one enemy" in his heart, there is nothing he can do. After all, she is the vice president, and it is not easy to fall out with her in public.

"I don't know, Mr. Thompson, what are you doing at the IRS?"

Kaqila actually already knew the other party's intention. It was nothing more than that they saw that they were sure to win after seeing this bill, so they were ready to join David and get some benefits. But at this time she still pretended to be ignorant and asked.

"Nothing. I came to discuss something with Inspector General David. By the way, Madam Vice President, what are you doing here?"

Kaqila was silent for a moment, then replied, "What a coincidence. I'm here to discuss something with Inspector General David as well."

Hearing this, the father and daughter looked at each other.

They came to David about the 24th presidential election, so why did Kaqila come here?
It can’t be such a coincidence that you came here for this matter, right?

Having said that, logically speaking, since the bill has already passed the Senate, Kachila, as the Senate President, should be preparing to submit it to the President.

But now the bill has not been submitted to the president yet, but he has already gone to the IRS to meet David. It is very likely that he is thinking of raising the price!

If this is true, then we must not let the other party take the initiative first!

Thinking of this, the man in the red scarf replied anxiously, "Is that so? Then please wait for a moment, Madam Vice President. Inspector General David has been looking for me many times. I can finally get away today. I should be able to finish my discussion with him soon!"

After saying this, he and Ivanka walked inside without looking back, as if they were afraid that something would be robbed.

But at this moment, an unhappy voice behind him forced him to stop.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Thompson!"

The man in the red scarf patiently turned around and asked, "What's the problem, Madam Vice President?"

"I'm here to discuss urgent national affairs with Inspector General David. Please wait patiently for a moment and don't delay national affairs!"

Kaqila was indeed somewhat dissatisfied with the other party's attitude. Although you are the former president, you have stepped down now and are just a businessman.

And I am the second boss of America. You are so arrogant. Why should I wait?

So what she said was also telling the other person that you must understand your current identity and status!

Let me wait? Do you still have the qualifications now?

Ivanka's father was very straightforward. He could not stand hearing this and immediately retorted, "Madam Vice President, everything has to be first come first served. We came here first, so we should go in first to discuss our affairs with Inspector General David. Isn't this unreasonable?"

"What's unreasonable..."

"Okay, Madam Vice President, sir, Inspector General David said that since you are all here, let's go up and talk to him together!"

Just when the two were about to have a fight, a staff member from the State Administration of Taxation came out to remind them.

When they heard that it was David who knew they were coming, the two stopped arguing, glared at each other, and followed the staff member inside.

Office of the Inspector General.

Seeing two groups of people coming in one after another, David put down the documents in his hand, stood up and said, "Madam Vice President, if you have anything to say, just let me know. How can I ask you to come in person?"

"Knowing that the tax avoidance bill passed the Senate, Inspector General David has been very busy, so I don't want to waste your time. Besides, I, the Vice President, am usually quite free, so it doesn't matter if I come here in person."

This time she came to ask David for a favor, so Kaqila was naturally very humble.

"Is that so... All right then!" David turned to look at Ivanka and her daughter and said, "Mr. Thompson, I have been trying to see you many times but to no avail. I never thought I would finally see you today."

Of course he knew the other party's reason for coming to see him at this time. It was simply because he saw that he had the upper hand and made a choice, but he did not point it out directly.

The man in the red scarf was speechless and could only smile awkwardly.

The reason why he was reluctant to meet David before was mainly because of the power of the three major groups, so he didn't want to get involved at this critical juncture and bring trouble upon himself.

But what was unexpected was that David was so well-connected that he actually had both the Senate and the House of Representatives under his control, and now he has an absolute advantage.

What worried him most was that Kaqila might disrupt his plans, so he was forced to make a choice.

"Inspector General David, the tax avoidance bill has been successfully passed by the Senate. I came here this time to express my congratulations to you in person..."

Without waiting for the man in the red scarf to speak first, Kachila said this in order to seize the initiative.

"This matter is all thanks to Madam Vice President. If it weren't for the Vice President's crucial vote, our bill would have been in jeopardy."

Hearing David's words, Kachila felt extremely pleased and even glanced at Ivanka and her daughter with a provocative look.

That look seemed to be saying: See me? Right now in this camp, the one who can really make the decision is me, Kaqila, and not you and your daughter!
The father and daughter were not blind, and of course they saw the smug look in Kaqila's eyes.

However, although the father and daughter were furious at the moment, they really didn't know how to refute, because the vice president really made a great contribution by passing the bill.

"By the way, Madam Vice President, why are you here this time? You're not here just to congratulate us on the bill passing the Senate, right?"

"Um... of course not..."

Kaqila glanced at Ivanka and her daughter, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

"Mr. Thompson is our friend, just tell us what you have to say, Madam Vice President!"

The reason why David wanted to talk to the former president many times was, of course, because he saw the influence behind his family.

And now his words are implying to the other party that I already treat you as my own people, and I hope you can be more sensible next time!

Sure enough, although Ivanka and her daughter didn't say anything after hearing this, they were still somewhat moved by David's attitude of not treating them as outsiders.

"Then I'll tell you, this is it, the bill has passed the Senate, and the White House will definitely make some statements next. I want to ask if there is anything I need to do or prepare in advance!"

"If the situation I told you about before really happens in the White House, then you just need to prepare for the job. If there is anything else, I will let you know!"

David's words made Ivanka and his daughter look at each other secretly.

Just as they guessed, if the White House refused to sign, David did plan to take action against Padden, and then support Kachila to take office, so as to sign the bill and make it officially effective!

"I see. By the way, my plan for after I take over is this..."

Kachila described in detail some of the plans and construction plans she had made for America after she came to power.

Of course, the most important thing is to use the tax funds collected by the IRS from this bill.

After listening to this, David nodded slightly: "Madam Vice President, your plan is good. If you really develop it according to our plan, I will apply to the director to approve the funds!"

"Since Inspector General David said this plan is good, I will implement it strictly according to it when the time comes, but..."

At the end of her speech, Kaqila looked hesitantly at Ivanka and his daughter.

"I've already said that Mr. Thompson is one of us, so just say whatever you want to say!"

"Ok."

Kaqila organized her words and said slowly: "Any of these plans will take at least three or four years to achieve outstanding results. And you know, Inspector General David, if I take over now, there will only be less than two years. By then, I am afraid that these plans will be affected..."

She did not explicitly ask for re-election in 24 years, but the people present were not fools, so how could they not understand?

Especially for Ivanka and her daughter at this time, for them, what they feared was really going to happen!
They came here to discuss the 24th presidential election.

But I didn’t expect that Kaqila’s arrival was also for this matter!
It really was a car crash!

But no matter what, anyone who dares to snatch away their chance to regain the throne after 24 years is absolutely not allowed!

The red scarf man immediately retorted angrily: "Vice President Kaqila, you just need to make good plans during your term. As for when your term ends, your successor will naturally be able to continue your plans. You don't have to worry about that!"

What he said was actually telling Kaqila that your plan has been approved by David.

Well, when I get back to that position, I will be able to make myself look beautiful!

Of course Kachila understood, but now that things have come to this, there is no reason to back down.

She immediately replied, "Mr. Thompson, every ruler has his own vision and ideas. For example, some drivers can drive trucks, while others can only drive cars. If a car driver insists on driving a truck, it is hard to say whether the car will be destroyed or people will die in the end!"

Kaqila's words were actually a veiled criticism of the other party. These plans were all made by me. What if you, a successor who knows nothing, messes up?
The man in the red scarf also understood the sarcasm, and was so angry that he pointed at Kaqila's nose and cursed: "Fuck Kaqila, who is driving a car and who is driving a truck?"

In such an important occasion as Congress, he dared to scold Nancy. Now in such a private occasion, he would not be afraid of a vice president who has no real power.

"Don't worry, Mr. Thompson. I didn't..."

"All right!"

Just as the two were about to continue arguing, David couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted directly, "Madam Vice President, you have a point... But 24 years is still a long time, and it is a serious matter. We need to think about it carefully, and it's not a good idea to make a decision now!"

Kaqila's face darkened when she heard this, but Ivanka and his daughter beside her secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as David is not determined to support Kachila's re-election in 24 years, they still have a great chance!
But next they have to think carefully about how to get David's support.
