Chapter 466 The Purpose is to Make Money
"Oh? Tell me what you have in mind." Allen was a little surprised. He never thought that Bo Wade could give him any financial advice, but when he heard Bo Wade say that, he also wanted to listen.
After all, he still hasn't found a solution to the financial problem.
He was almost scratching his head over this matter.
"Sir, you see, I gained a lot from my trip to Mumbai this time," said Bowede. "Those businessmen are very rich..."
Bowede spoke excitedly about his plan, but as Allen listened, his expression gradually became less cheerful.
Allen didn't expect that Bowede had this idea.
He wanted to take action against those businessmen.
According to Bowede, these businessmen are too rich and it is the fastest way to make money from them.
The fastest is the fastest, but the problem is that these rich people have connections, so which one is easy?
It's okay if it happens on one or two occasions, but if it happens on a large scale and the forces behind them unite, even he, the Minister of Finance, won't be able to handle it.
In Allen's opinion, Bowede just gave him a bad idea.
If this method was feasible, the Ministry of Finance would have taken action long ago. Why would they wait until now? While speaking, Bowede had been observing the changes in Allen's expression. He noticed that Allen's expression was different and realized that there was something wrong with what he had said just now.
So he immediately added: "Sir, I'm not saying to target the rich directly. We can target their industries, companies, etc."
"Is there any difference?" Allen asked.
Isn't it all about getting money from those guys? Such a decision will definitely be met with resistance, no doubt about it.
There is no way those guys would hand over the money obediently.
"Of course, sir." Bowede smiled, "This time we will do it in the name of the country."
"In the name of the country?" What Powede said aroused Allen's interest. It seemed that he had misunderstood Powede. It seemed that this guy really had some solution.
"Didn't the Prime Minister introduce a policy of unified taxation?" asked Powede.
"That's right, but although the policy has been introduced, it's difficult to implement it given the current situation," Allen lamented.
Before, the old immortal wanted to unify the taxation of each state and bring these taxes under the federal center.
In this way, the financial power of each state can be taken away.
Even if it is impossible to completely cut off the finances of the states, such tax consolidation can at least greatly reduce the fiscal revenues of the states.
Without money, the states will have to look to the federal central government for their decisions.
This is a means for Laoxian to strengthen the central power of the federation.
After all, the states now have too much autonomy, and the federal center has very limited control over the states.
The old immortal is ambitious and has a strong desire for control over power. He cannot bear to see those states retain such a large degree of autonomy.
It would be fine if those states were ruled by their BJP, but the problem is that many states are ruled by other opposition parties.
Those places are almost all rebels, opposing the federal central government in various ways.
The states basically ignore the various orders issued by the federal center, even if they are correct orders, and the federal center does not have much control over them.
It can be said that the states below basically act on their own, which makes the situation of the federal central government somewhat embarrassing.
"Leave it to the law enforcement agency." Bowede said loudly.
Allen was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Bowede continued, "If anyone doesn't do as he is told, the Enforcement Bureau will intervene, and we don't have to worry about them not paying taxes. Sir, these businessmen's companies are now in collusion with local governments in various ways, and they basically pay very little tax, or even no tax. Now the federal government needs to levy taxes uniformly. Regardless of whether the states want to impose other taxes locally, the taxes paid to the federal central government must not be reduced."
Allen was very moved by what Bowede said.
Since this policy involves all states in India and there is great resistance, he, as the finance minister, often has to put the matter on hold.
Since the old immortal issued the policy, only a few states can collect taxes from the local area, and these states have relatively good relations with the federal central government.
Even so, the taxes paid are actually discounted.
The federal central government naturally cannot ask for more.
Compared with those states that resist paying taxes and are unwilling to pay a penny, these states will be praised by the federal government if they pay even a symbolic few rupees, let alone pay some taxes.
For Arun, the finance minister, economic issues have always been a concern.
He was very excited about Bowede's proposal.
He found himself forgetting about the Enforcement Bureau. Perhaps it was because the Enforcement Bureau had been battling with the Central Bureau of Investigation, which made him forget that he could use the Enforcement Bureau in other places.
We can temporarily ignore the issue of the states not cooperating with unified taxation.
Because he can directly send law enforcement officers to local companies and enterprises. Even if they have some local network protection, the policy of unified taxation is made by the federal central government and is backed by law.
So, even if things really get out of hand, he is not afraid.
The taxes that should be paid still need to be paid.
If Allen can't handle a state, can't he handle these companies and enterprises?
"How confident are you?" Allen asked again, "I don't want to cause too much trouble."
"Don't worry, sir. The law enforcement bureau only needs to take down a few typical cases, and I believe those guys will know how powerful we are. Then you can come forward and give some preferential treatment in tax rates, and I think this will most likely succeed." said Bo Wade.
Alan smiled.
Bowede is the bad guy, and I am the good guy.
Not bad, not bad. Bowede is reliable and considers himself.
If the Ministry of Finance really follows what Powede did, it should be able to receive a lot of taxes, which can solve its urgent needs.
If I can solve the country's financial problems, even if not completely, but just alleviate them a little, I believe I will be valued more by the old immortal.
After all, it is impossible for me not to know how bad India’s financial situation is.
"Okay, let's do this. Don't rush into this matter. Pick a few people to try it out first and see how everyone reacts," said Allen.
He agreed with Bowede's plan.
Apart from this method, he couldn't think of a better way.
However, this method cannot be too radical, and we should take it one step at a time.
After all, Allen doesn't want to face too much opposition, which will not be good for him.
"Yes, sir, just wait for my good news." Bowede said with a smile.
He was able to think of these things because of the inspiration given by his trip to Mumbai.
Those businessmen are so rich that they really have a room full of cash, or a basement full of large-denomination cash piled up like that. Even he was shocked.
At least you should have your own share of this money.
As long as you have work to do, especially if you can target those businessmen, you can gain more benefits from it.
This trip to Mumbai brought him huge benefits, and he will never forget this feeling.
It feels like an addiction.
So this time I came up with some advice for Allen.
This method can not only help the superiors solve the problem, but also benefit oneself. It is simply killing two birds with one stone. What could be better than this?
Bowede's work efficiency is still very high. After all, he is working for his boss and also for his own benefit, so he must be proactive in this kind of thing.
Wides got the news very quickly. After all, he had sent people to keep an eye on the movements of the Law Enforcement Bureau.
"Tax inspection?" After listening to Wides' call, Roton was stunned.
He didn't expect that Bowede would focus on the taxes of those corporate companies.
However, after listening to more of Vides' introduction, Roton quickly reacted.
This is obviously due to the Ministry of Finance.
The power struggle between the federal center and the states has always existed. Lao Xian collected taxes from the federal center, which weakened the power of local states.
The implementation of this policy has not been very effective.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Taxes are basically still not collectable.
It is certain that the Ministry of Finance is short of funds.
This time, Bo Wade is obviously ready to help Allen resolve the financial crisis.
There is only one purpose, and that is to make money.
After thinking it through, Rawdon was no longer surprised that the law enforcement agency did such a thing.
You should know that the law enforcement agency later targeted Chinese investment companies, especially those mobile phone companies, and seized and froze various funds.
Of course, these actions are not purely for money, there are also some political disputes between countries.
In short, these are all done by the law enforcement bureau.
Now, Bovede is only taking action against some domestic companies in India, there is nothing to be surprised about.
"This is how I see this matter. The Enforcement Bureau will definitely offend people, and the Central Bureau of Investigation just needs to wait and see what happens." said Roton.
"I have thought about it. I will just watch Bowede do whatever he wants. But I don't think they are that stupid. They will probably just choose some people to deter them. In that case, too many people will be offended. Although Bowede arrested a lot of people for the last incident in Mumbai, he was able to get away with it. The higher-ups are still very satisfied with him. It's really absurd." said Vides.
"It can't be compared to what happened in Mumbai." Roton said, "The rich people in Mumbai were in the wrong. They hired people to exchange money and were caught red-handed. Whatever Bovede does is right. But this time he is targeting companies in various states, which is different. Those companies must have paid taxes in name, but they just paid them to the finance ministries of various states. He will need to deal with the governments of various states. Can the finance ministries of various states spit out the money they have taken? If it is a state ruled by the People's Party, it may be easy to deal with, but what if it is ruled by the opposition? Do you think this will be so easy?"
"Haha~~That's true." Vides laughed, "I even have reason to guess that the Enforcement Agency will take this opportunity to cause trouble for the state government that opposes it."
"That's for sure. The current law enforcement agency listens to the People's Party." Roton said with a smile.
The Enforcement Directorate has now become a lackey of the BJP.
In the process of tax inspection, conflicts with local governments of various states are inevitable.
It is impossible for the Enforcement Directorate to make a fuss in this regard and create opportunities for the BJP.
"So once you get involved in this kind of political struggle, things will be serious. If the opposition parties start to make trouble, the Enforcement Bureau will probably have a headache as well." Roden said, "And the tax investigation will definitely take up a lot of the Enforcement Bureau's energy. I think the Central Bureau of Investigation can seize the initiative in other areas."
"That's right." Vides sighed, "These days, those bastards in the Enforcement Bureau are so abominable. They have their eyes on the Central Bureau of Investigation. Whenever we go out to handle a case, the Enforcement Bureau will definitely find a way to intervene. If there is no chance, they will find a similar case and make those cases bigger and involve more people, in order to suppress our Central Bureau of Investigation. It's abominable."
After hearing what Vides said, Roton could only shake his head secretly in his heart.
This kind of thing is unavoidable. The Enforcement Bureau is now in a fight with the Central Bureau of Investigation. They have to follow whatever the Central Bureau of Investigation does and investigates.
Even without the conditions, he still finds ways to keep up. It has to be said that Bowede is still very motivated.
This puts a lot of pressure on Vides.
"You can only do your best." said Roton.
Although the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Enforcement Directorate are engaged in various battles, it has to be said that the case handling efficiency of these two departments is far superior to before.
The Central Bureau of Investigation, in particular, has become much more diligent.
It was not just Vides who felt the crisis, but the entire Central Bureau of Investigation, from top to bottom, felt the tremendous pressure from the Enforcement Bureau.
Now when you go out, you will see those guys in the Law Enforcement Bureau looking down on you and not taking the people from the China Tobacco Investigation Bureau seriously at all.
This is too hard for the old man from the Central Bureau of Investigation.
You know, the Enforcement Bureau was nothing in the past. It could only assist the Central Bureau of Investigation. How could they have any say?
Such a big change happened suddenly, and many people still find it difficult to adapt.
Vides went to Roton just to complain, and he found someone to talk to about his troubles, which made him feel better.
Some things can't be said to just anyone.
It is precisely because of this that Vides regards Rotten as a true friend.
Although there is a big age gap between the two, Rotten has great potential after all, and Vides really wants to establish this kind of close relationship with Rotten.
That morning, Rawdon sat in the director's office as usual, reading the newspaper and drinking tea.
Wait a minute, take a look at the reports sent in from below. This day will pass quickly.
During his time in Mumbai, Rawdon lived a very fulfilling and leisurely life.
Since he became the Commissioner of Mumbai Police, he has become absolutely the top figure in Mumbai.
With the addition of Fia's Mishra family, Rawdon's relationship with the wealthy and powerful in Mumbai became closer, and he got to know more people.
Ding-ling-ling, the landline phone rings.
Luoton picked up the phone. This should be a call from the leader above.
In Luoton's mind, it should be the call from the director's office of the General Administration.
After all, in Mabang, except for the director general, no one else, not even the nominal number two, Mos Pendaka, would do this.
Generally, they would call their office director as a courtesy.
Of course, if Moss really wanted to put on airs and show off his leadership, it wouldn't be impossible for him to call himself and give him some orders.
But this would definitely make Roden uncomfortable.
Moreover, Roton might not necessarily execute these orders.
Rotun is now the powerful director and the chief of the Mumbai Police Department. Unless you are crazy, no one wants to offend Rotun.
The phone was picked up and a familiar voice came from the other end.
Of course, the familiar voice did not come from the office of the Director General of the State Administration of Maharashtra, but from the office of the Union Home Minister.
The content of the call was very simple, asking Rodon to go to New Delhi immediately as Home Minister Rajnath wanted to meet him.
The other party didn't say much, just said that Rajnath had something important to discuss with him, and he would only know what it was when he went there.
