247: Chapter 160 Security Work 247: Chapter 160 Security Work The remaining scratch-off tickets totaled 5440 US dollars, and federal and personal inco taxes still needed to be paid.
California has a tax-exemption policy on lottery winnings, while other states might require an 8% or 12% state tax, but in California, you only need to pay federal tax and personal inco tax.
Lottery amounts exceeding 600 US dollars, foreigners have to pay 30% federal tax, while locals only need to pay 25%.
If it were a normal redemption process, it would definitely be done by letting Aricans like Jesse or Jennifer, who are old White Flag People, to go redeem and sign for it.
However, a lottery ticket actually has a wide range of value and uses, there are people on the streets willing to buy these tickets at a higher price.
Allen Zhang simply drove Jesse to the Sunkist Bar, which was open for business today, already gathered plenty of booze-lovers; however, no strippers had been recruited yet, the steel pole was still unused.
Mary was serving drinks to custors, and a new white bartender was also recruited, surprising him, “Big boss, you’re inspecting again?”
Looking at the two distinctly different white beauties, one tall and one small.
Mary was a bit skeptical, “Are these your friends?”
“Yes, this is Jennifer, this is Jesse.
Just have the bartender make them any two drinks, I have so scratch-off lottery tickets here, take them and sell them to the custors in the bar, as long as they are willing to buy them at the sa or a higher price, the transaction can proceed, I don’t care about the source of the money.”
After all, it’s all for tax evasion, and the other party might be doing this to launder money.
Scratch-offs are also a kind of hard currency in the Black Market; after all, just by transferring them, one can easily launder money.
“Ok, wait a mont, I’ll handle it right away.” Mary took the scratch-off tickets from Allen Zhang’s hands, then guided the group into a relatively quiet private booth, and brought them so iced drinks.
It didn’t take long for Mary to manage the sale of those tickets in the latter half of the ti, coming back with cash, handing the US dollars to Allen Zhang, she said: “Soone offered 6000 US dollars for those tickets.”
Allen Zhang counted the amount, took out 20 US dollars and gave it to her, smiling, “Tough job, you can get back to your work now.”
“Call if you need anything else!” Mary winked and swayed her hips as she walked away.
Jennifer watched her leave and then looked at Allen Zhang with a aningful expression, “Buying this bar wasn’t so you could have a place to drink and fool around with won, right?”
“What are you talking about?
I don’t understand!” Allen Zhang denied flatly without changing his expression, “Am I that kind of person?
I’m just here to make money!”
Using money to shut Jennifer up, 6000 US dollars, split three ways, Allen Zhang willingly took a bit less, getting 1980 US dollars.
Dividing profits wasn’t necessary to ask of the child, after all, the other party had amassed many scratch-offs before the Beggar Gang was established.
The streets weren’t their territory back then.
The three spent so ti at the bar, briefly tried out the gaming machines in the latter area, felt a bit bored, and Allen Zhang simply drove the two back to the bridge tunnel camp.
During that ti, he also received a pager ssage from Olivia.
Olivia: The deal is done, the property owner’s manager has decided to hire your guys to work as security personnel, at 65 US dollars per hour.
You’ll need to prepare equipnt in advance, et at the Southern airport, taking a private business jet to a private island off the California coast.
Allen Zhang: Ok, is there a specific ti?
Olivia: We leave at 22:30 tonight, you need to gather there around ten o’clock.
I’ve sent you the contact info of the property owner’s manager [account id], you can contact her directly.
Allen Zhang: Understood.
Allen Zhang added the contact as a friend, greeted her: Hello, I am a friend introduced by Olivia.
The contact appeared to be a high-value blonde in the photos, dressed in office attire, donned in professional makeup, also working in the Crown District’s property departnt, her na was Lisa.
The contact quickly responded: Hello, Mr.
Jin, I’ve understood the situation through a colleague, I think you guys are very suitable for this security work.
You need to bring people to the Southern airport, area xx, before 21:59 and carry and declare the following legally permitted safety equipnt, such as bullet-proof vests, helts, night vision goggles, fully or semi-automatic firearms, walkie-talkies, lock guns, tasers, etc.
I’ll send you a detailed list with the specific procedures and a form to manually fill out the personnel declaration, specific arrangents, and interfaces will need to be coordinated with the security personnel on the island after landing.
The contact sent a form, along with an employnt contract and various precautions.
Allen Zhang glanced at it, then forwarded it to Sieg.
Sieg: ?
That was fast, haven’t we even interviewed yet?
Allen Zhang: I told you, we’re going through the back door; rich people only care about their travels, their personal butlers take care of these things, and I happen to know people in the property departnt, they will definitely take internal kickbacks, better for our own people, reliable!
Property might offer rates higher than 65 US dollars per hour for hiring security personnel, the property departnt will take a cut, reasonably priced as managent fees.
Those big bosses don’t care about this small amount of money, they have to pay expensive property fees every year which includes travel, flight bookings, vehicle maintenance, cleaning, and security work.
