american tax collector

Soon, more than an hour passed quietly.

Sean and the local tyrant families in various states, who were originally full of confidence, gradually became depressed.

Originally, they thought that even if the three major groups intended to stir up trouble in the stock market, they would definitely do so in a gradual manner depending on the situation.

Because if they sell in large quantities and fail to achieve the desired effect, and instead they are left holding the bottom, then they will lose both the wife and the army.

But what I didn't expect was that these guys didn't play by the rules at all.

If they don't make a move, then they won't make a move. But once they do, they sell off like mad, not caring how low the market price is, as if the stocks they hold will become worthless if they are a little late.

This made the traders of the major families so angry that they started cursing loudly.

Of course, no matter how much they scolded, they still had to ensure the task assigned by David.

In order to regroup, the major families could only go with the flow and frantically pour money into the stock market in the hope of stabilizing the situation as soon as possible.

However, the situation of the stock market is beyond the control of anyone, and the mad-dog selling by the three major groups has gradually caused a new round of panic in the stock market.

Investors are also afraid that they will be trapped if the next step is over, so they also follow the trend and sell their shares like mad dogs.

This did not make the situation any better, but instead made it even more serious than when it started.

Fortunately, after a melee, the time finally came to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, which was the closing time of the American stock market. Sean Thompson and his team finally breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Senado Island.

“Fuck, they managed to handle this!?”

"We sold so many stocks in large quantities, but we didn't trigger the circuit breaker. We suffered a bit this time..."

"Yeah, not to mention causing the stock market to crash, even the circuit breakers failed to trip. This still falls short of our expectations..."

"I knew that bastard David must have made a plan for this, and now it's proven to be true. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to make it today..."

The circuit breaker mechanism is also called the automatic suspension mechanism.

It refers to the suspension of trading measures taken by the exchange to control risks when the stock index volatility reaches the specified circuit breaker point.

So far, the U.S. stock market has been halted five times.

The first one occurred during the financial crisis in 97. The other four occurred in 2020.

And every time the U.S. stock market circuit breaker occurs, it will cause global shock.

So the Freemasons present were very sorry.

Because David is currently conducting a tax audit on Wall Street. If the stock market experiences its sixth circuit breaker at this critical juncture, they can use this to put the blame on David, and he will be in big trouble.

But unfortunately, things did not develop as they imagined.

After hearing these people's remarks, Soros and Buffett, the two stock gods present at the scene, cursed them as fools in their hearts.

Although they sold their stocks very quickly, the fact that David was able to deal with so many members of Congress meant that he also dealt with the chaebols behind these members. Although these chaebols were not as powerful as their three major groups, they should not be underestimated when combined.

And now, this stock market war has only started for a day, and you want to defeat others in one fell swoop? How is it possible!

Although they thought so in their hearts, neither Thor nor Buffett dared to say such offensive words.

Soros said tactfully: "The Kennidi family and the indigenous families in each state are still quite powerful. It's only been a day. It's not easy to defeat them. Let's slowly exert our strength next time!"

"Soros is right. The stock market situation cannot be rushed. Our three major groups control the stocks of so many American companies. This means that the initiative is always in our hands. We can play with them slowly!"

Buffett also echoed.

After hearing the explanations from the two stock market tycoons, the crowd, who had been quite agitated, calmed down.

At this time, Henrietta also looked at the two of them and said, "Do you think we need to do something at this stage?"

Soros thought for a moment and replied, "We need to use the media and social software that we can still control to spread and infuse investors with unfavorable market news, so that they will panic even more when the market opens tomorrow."

This was the trick he used when he blocked those countries in Southeast Asia. Relying on overwhelming propaganda before the market opened, he caused people to lose confidence in their own currencies, and thus shorted the currencies of these countries.

So he thinks that this tactic should be effective if used in the current American stock market.

"Time is running out. There should be a lot of funds from Kennidi and the local snake families in various states that have not been transferred in time. I think we can use the CSRC's fund supervision to hinder the operation of their funds, thereby delaying their investment in the stock market!"

Buffett also echoed his opinion.

"very good!"

Henrietta looked at everyone present and said, "You all heard it, so go do it!"

……

New York, Manhattan Bureau.

"According to today's closing situation, the Nasdaq Composite Index is at 17127.66, down 15423.03% from 9.63 on the previous trading day. It's still 10 percentage points away from the circuit breaker mechanism, and this is only the first day. If the three major groups launch a more rapid offensive, then we..."

Inside the office, a woman with a ponytail was explaining something. Her name was Megan, and she was a clerk at the Manhattan branch who was well versed in the stock market.

Since David didn't know much about the stock market, she was sent here to explain the stock market situation to David when the market opened.

"Today, the Nasdaq index fell by nearly ten percentage points. This means that if it continues like this, the circuit breaker mechanism may occur at any time?"

Although he didn't know much about the stock market, he knew what the circuit breaker in the stock market meant. It meant that investors would suffer great losses and it would cause panic in the market, and the stock market would not be far from a crash.

"Our funds are still a little weak right now. If there is no more capital to take over, this will indeed happen."

"Well, thank you for your hard work Megan, you can go back and rest."

"Okay, I'll come back when the market opens tomorrow."

After Megan left, David immediately picked up his phone, dialed a number, and said, "How's it going, Keppel, have you contacted Musk?"

"According to your instructions, I have been contacting him and even contacted his assistant through an intermediary, but he seems to be avoiding us and doesn't want to talk to us..."

When David heard this, a frown appeared on his face.

When he was rectifying the CIA, he happened to meet the newly crowned world's richest man, and even reached a cooperation agreement with him.

However, when his tax avoidance bill was passed and he was about to start work on the midterm elections, he could not get in touch with the other party. That would have been fine, but now he heard from Keppel that the other party was actually trying to avoid him. What was going on?
Could it be that the three major groups have done something against Musk?
Or did Musk stand on the opposite camp?

This seems a little unlikely!
As soon as this idea came out, it was rejected by David immediately.

According to the information he obtained, Musk had no connection with the Freemasons and the Ansa Group. On the contrary, after seeing his rise, these major groups, fearing threats, had suppressed Musk many times.

So logically speaking, it should be impossible for these two to stand together.

Then there must be another reason that forced Musk to avoid him!
"Inspector General, are you still listening?"

The voice on the other end of the phone brought David back to his senses. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Well, immediately notify Sean, Thompson, and...these people, and have them meet me at the Times Square Hotel in New York before 9 o'clock tonight!"

Sean, Thompson and others are currently in Washington, D.C. It only takes more than an hour for them to get here, and it is only four o'clock in the afternoon, so they still have time.

The offensive of the three major groups will definitely be more fierce tomorrow.

Therefore, the purpose of his gathering these people was naturally to discuss and arrange the tasks for tomorrow's market opening.

At the same time, in Washington, DC, at the Thompson International Hotel.

"Father, this is a little strange. If things continue like this, let alone the 500-800 billion dollars we expected, I think even 1000 billion will be hard to stabilize the market."

According to Ivanka and Thompson's previous speculation, with the scale of the three major groups' selling on the stock market, as long as they spend 500 to 800 billion to enter the market, they may not be able to completely cover the bottom, but at least they can stabilize it for at least a week.

But judging from today's situation, we'd be lucky if we can make it through tomorrow, let alone a week.

"The decisiveness of the three major groups is indeed beyond our expectations, but there is no need to think about this method. It must have been planned by those two old bastards, Soros and Buffett!"

Freemasons are a group of profit-seeking people.

Although they did pour out the milk at the beginning, they did not pour out all the milk at once.

At that time, that group of people were observing the economic market at that time. Once the economic market recovered, they would immediately stop losses.

And this time, Thompson felt the same way.

He felt that this was just the beginning and it was impossible for the three major groups to pour out all the milk in their hands.

But I didn't expect that they could actually take such a decisive action.

Now thinking about it, he felt that such a decisive measure must be related to Soros and Buffett.

Only under the leadership of these two people who are known as the stock gods of the time can others work together to do such a thing.

"That should be it. Such decisive and ruthless methods are what Thoros always uses!"

"Forget about him. What did Musk say?"

Thompson knew very well that he could not lose this war, so after some thought, he decided to find some foreign aid to help.

The only person who has a good relationship with their family and has the ability to do so is Musk, the new richest man in the world.

"His secretary has replied, saying that he will come to see you, father, at 6 o'clock tonight..."

"Giggle..."

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the office door. Thompson had no choice but to patiently shout, "Come in!"

"Mr. Thompson, David Inspector General's assistant Keppel called and asked you to come to the Times Square Hotel in New York before nine o'clock tonight. He wants to see you."

"Nine o'clock...Okay, I get it, get out now!"

The situation in the stock market today was so intense that it was obvious that David had seen that things were not going well, so it was normal for him to hold a meeting to arrange the next plan.

Thinking of this, Thompson looked at his daughter and said, "You just said that Musk will come to see me at 6 o'clock?"

"Yes, it only takes us an hour to get to New York. We can still make it in time after meeting him and then flying to New York!"

"Okay, that's it!"

At 6 o'clock in the evening, a Tesla arrived at the entrance of Thompson International Hotel.

The car door opened, and a man about 1 meters tall with a peaceful look walked down.

He is Musk, the current richest man in the United States, a technology fanatic, the controller of companies such as Tesla and Spacex, and known as the modern Iron Man.

"Mr. Musk, welcome!"

Thompson and his daughter, who had been waiting here long ago, came forward immediately.

In Thompson's business empire, Musk has always been his business partner.

And when he took office as president, he immediately hired Musk to serve on his advisory committee.

However, due to some other reasons, Musk resigned from this position in 17.

But no matter what, the two have a good relationship in private.

This is also why Musk could avoid David for some personal reasons, but it was difficult for him to refuse to meet Thompson.

"Hello, Mr. Thompson and Ms. Ivanka!"

"Come in first and talk later!"

The Thompsons, father and daughter, took Musk through the hotel lobby and up to a private room on the upper floors.

After both parties sat down, Thompson asked impatiently: "Mr. Musk, I believe you already know that I have joined David's camp, and I heard that David also invited you before, so I came to you today for the same purpose."

"Excuse me Mr. Thompson, I did reach a verbal agreement with David before, but as the situation developed, I thought it would be better for me not to get involved."

"Don't be fooled by everyone calling me the modern Iron Man. In essence, I am just a businessman. In America, as long as you are in business, you can't get around the three major corporations no matter what. And you have seen what the major corporations did to me before. I don't want the situation to become more difficult. I hope you can understand!"

Masco said these words with a little struggle.

In fact, from a deep down point of view, he wanted to cooperate with David.

Not to mention that David has now taken control of Congress and has become a rising star in the United States. Just think about the repeated suppression of him by several major groups in his early years. Any man would have to take revenge, right?
The reason why he finally broke the contract was mainly because he received a rumor that when the tax avoidance bill was in the Senate, three major groups took action against the families of those congressmen.

Family is his weak spot.

This is why he was still hesitant to bet on David even though he saw the bill passed. (End of this chapter)
