Chapter 162: Mr. Poincaré’s Expectation
Mountain Eagle frowned as he said, "To be honest, those who need to launder huge sums of cash are mostly drug dealers, fraudsters, and the like. I’m not keen on dealing with these people.
It’s not that I am too fastidious to disdain their money for being dirty, but rather I believe that working with such people will invite endless trouble.
I even worry that I won’t be able to resist getting rid of them..."
Mr. Poincaré chuckled and shook his head, "You are underestimating the money laundering industry...
Mountain Eagle, people usually think of black money as dirty money earned by gangsters and drug dealers through crime, but in reality, black money refers to all money whose origins cannot be explained.
That money can’t just sit in a shell company’s bank account forever. It can’t all be used up in simple consumption, and because of the registrants, shell companies carry extremely high legal risks, so those people need to find a place for that money...
A place where the origins can be legitimized, and potentially even generate investment returns.
Your planned gas station alliance, trading companies, and even your Sunset Mountain villa are all very good projects.
You are completely different from Blood Fox and his crowd; if you’re willing, you actually have the ability to assetize those things, and you could even continue to look around Kamui for scarce resources like Sunset Mountain, and develop and operate them with that black money.
That would also benefit the local development, because black money is willing to invest and isn’t afraid of losses!
As long as it’s possible to transfer that money out of shell company accounts legally and into personal accounts, those people are willing to pay a hefty price."
