Chapter 723 -362: The Ruthless Person of America_2
So, with those additional factors considered, it is highly likely that the major families will agree to the proposal.
“You’re right…”
David nodded, signaling his agreement.
About twenty minutes later, the three representatives from Beisemai returned to the suite.
“Our family is willing to help Inspector David push through this bill, but as we discussed earlier, you must offer us a tax incentive for Texas. In addition, due to the social resource reshuffling this bill will cause, we expect you, Inspector David, to help us get some benefits when the time comes.”
“Our family feels the same way…”
...
“Our family as well.”
Just as Sean had predicted, the three men and their families behind them did indeed come to a compromise.
David nodded with satisfaction and responded, “As long as you agree to help push the bill, I will naturally offer a tax policy favorable to Texas, and as for other benefits… rest assured, I am not stingy when it comes to our own people!”
“That’s good to hear.”
With the assurance given, the faces of the Beisemai representatives relaxed.
“Ha ha, who would have thought we could come together like this, let’s drink to it!”
Sean was the happiest about this cooperation.
After all, this is Texas, with a total of 38 House seats and two Senate seats.
And now they had secured all of these seats!
With the congressmen David had already persuaded, their bill could almost be said to have one foot over the threshold of passage!
Sean took a bottle of champagne out of the hotel’s refrigerator, poured a glass for everyone, and looked at David.
“Here’s to the bill we are about to draft!”
David did not decline and raised his glass first, followed by everyone else who lifted their glasses and drank in unison.
Next, the group discussed the process of pushing the bill.

According to the Constitution of America,
Introducing a bill is not as simple as just thinking it up; it must go through many steps.
For example, a Congressman must first present an outline of the bill to the public, making them aware of what the legislation entails before it can be submitted to the Congressional Committee for review.
After the review, the bill is drafted. Once drafting is complete, it can be debated and voted on in the House. If it passes, it goes to the Senate for review and a vote.
After the Senate completes its review, the bill can finally be presented to the President. If the President signs it, it officially becomes law and is implemented!
They discussed for nearly an hour.
Once the general matters were decided, the family representatives left one by one, ready to go back and manage their affairs.
On David’s end, he picked up the phone and called Donald.
In the Washington D.C. Headquarters office, Donald also beamed with happiness after hearing that all the seats in Texas had been secured.
He immediately went out the door and headed to Obadiah’s office, saying, “David just called. The trip to Texas went smoothly, and The Big Three native families are willing to work for us!”
“Excellent!”
Obadiah was also excited upon hearing this. Texas is the second-largest state in America with many congressional seats.
If they were willing to support the bill, then, together with the congressmen David had already secured, there was high hope for their legislation!
…
Back at the hotel, David and Sean continued to discuss their next steps in the work process.
Just then, a knock came on the door, Manson walked in, and said, “Chief Inspector, the Speaker of the House is here. She’s downstairs and specifically asking to see you.”
“The Speaker of the House?”
David was startled. He didn’t have much to do with this Speaker of the House, and had never sought her out like he had other congressmen. Why had she suddenly come over?
Could it be…
“David, her coming to you in person at this critical moment probably means she’s found out about the bill!” Sean said with a grave look on his face.
David nodded. If it wasn’t for the matter of the bill being exposed to her, why else would the Speaker of the House come to see him in person?
“After all, she is the third most influential person in America, and the bill you want to push through has to pass through the House of Congress she controls, so I think it’s best to see her and find out what she really means,” Sean suggested.
Considering Sean’s advice, David thought it made some sense and then gestured to Manson, “Bring her up!”
Seven or eight minutes later, the door was pushed open again. A woman dressed in burgundy women’s suit, with short blonde hair, walked in.
She was the current Speaker of the House, Nancy Garry.
Nancy first glanced at David and then turned her gaze to Sean, with a mock smile, she said, “Mr. Sean, you’re here as well.”
“All well, Speaker Nancy.”
“Mr. Sean, if I were your family, I would choose to keep a low profile, and not always think about some things that are not there. You’re playing with fire!” Nancy said with accusatory tones.
Hearing Nancy’s words of reproach, Sean’s brow furrowed too.
And David from the side took a few more glances at Nancy.
Speaking of which, this Speaker was definitely a tough character in the current American political arena.
She started her political career as a congressman in 1987 and then was re-elected many times, serving in the Senate for over 30 years now.
Her most famous act was during the 2020 Congressional session, when she tore up the State of the Union address in front of the former President for the whole world to see, an epic scene in American political history.
This was a person bold enough to defy the President before the entire world, so one could imagine just how domineering and ruthless her style was.
And now, her public criticism of Sean and his family barely registered as child’s play.
“And you, David, I don’t care about your grudge with Freemasonry, the Ansa Group, or the Illuminati, but please don’t bring this war to our House of Congress, you understand what I mean?”
Seeing that Sean remained silent, Nancy turned her gaze toward David, her tone still unquestionably commanding.
“What do you mean by that, Speaker Nancy?” David inquired without any intention of backing down.
“Haha, what do I mean?”
Nancy let out a cold laugh and said, “You’ve been running around the states lately, threatening our congressmen to help you push some offshore tax avoidance bill. Do you really think I, as the Speaker of the House, am unaware of this?”
David’s expression darkened. He knew that with him reaching out to so many congressmen so publicly, the bill was definitely not a secret anymore, but he didn’t expect that it would be the Speaker of the House who found out.
“So what you’re saying is, Speaker Nancy, you’re lobbying on behalf of The Big Three Groups?”
In principle, this bill and the Speaker had no major conflicts of interest, so David wanted to ascertain whether she was sent by The Big Three Groups to make life difficult for him.
A flicker passed through Nancy’s eyes, and then she said nonchalantly, “As the Speaker of the House, no one has the right to make me their lobbyist. I just think that your bill would shake the foundations of our nation, so I must stop you!”
She said this just to maintain her persona.
In reality, a few days after the meeting of The Big Three Groups, they had agreed on a plan to have Nancy, the Speaker of the House, come forward to coerce the congressmen into compliance.
Although Nancy was a powerful figure in America, she still needed to make concessions in the face of pressure from The Big Three Groups.
However, she didn’t think warning the congressmen of her House was going to be effective. It was the bell-ringer who must be the bell-undoer, she believed that to end this farce, she had to start with David. Thus, she had made the trip herself.
