Genius remembers "Love ♂ Go ÷ Xiao? Talk → Net" in one second to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The good news is that Jiang Hai wants to expand the approval from Haiyang, and the state has approved it, but the price is not cheap.
To be honest, there was no so-called private fishing ground in the sea on Winthrop's side.
What is different from domestic fisheries is that in China, fish farms are basically farmed fish. The fish you raise are naturally your territory. If others come to catch them, it will definitely not work. But abroad, basically No one raises fish. All fish are wild. If you catch them, others can catch them. Unless you are the island owner who bought an island, he will have a specific fishing area of his own.
Jiang Hai's manor, the original fishing area, was given as a gift when he bought this land, but he didn't expect it to be so valuable now.
Since Jiang Hai still wants to buy Hai, there is no reason for Massachusetts to disagree.
Agreeing to sell the sea is good news, and what the Massachusetts government is asking for is good news.
Because although they agreed to sell, they did not plan based on square kilometers, acres or nautical miles.
They directly designated the entire area outside Jiang Hai's original sea area as the territory Jiang Hai wanted to buy.
If calculated by square kilometers, it would be about 20,000 square kilometers. Just kidding, the size of the sea area of Jiang Hai is larger than the urban area of the domestic imperial capital, with a sea area of nearly 200 kilometers across and a depth of nearly 100 kilometers. of sea areas.
According to Jiang Hai's ship, it can run 24 knots per hour at full speed. One knot is equivalent to one nautical mile, and one nautical mile is equal to 852 kilometers, which is equivalent to less than 50 kilometers per hour. If it keeps going, Jiang Hai needs to spend It took more than an hour to drive out of my own fishing ground. This time I have to drive to the end. Well, I can't stop for three hours. This is just driving straight. What if it is a patrol?
There might really be some trouble. Thinking of this, Jiang Hai couldn't help but pat his forehead.
"Actually, it's okay. If you're really not short of money, you can give it a try, because part of this sea area is considered to be within the original scope of Cape Cod, where a large number of tuna, bluefin, and yellowfin gather every year. We have everything, this can be regarded as a compensation." Seeing Jiang Hai hesitate, Mayor Wallis here was also a little embarrassed. Originally, Jiang Hai only wanted to buy about 5,000 square kilometers of sea area, that is, The sea area outside them has been added to a circle, but now it is also added to the circle, but this circle is three or four times as big as the original fishing ground. It will also cost a lot of money to transform these places...
"Huh, how much does the state charge? How can I protect my rights?" After thinking for a while, Jiang Hai asked Mayor Wallis.
"The state also knows that it is really difficult for you to buy such a large fishery, so they have said that if you buy it, they will give it to you at US$10,000 per square kilometer, and they require a one-time payment. If you pay in full, they can get you some conveniences, such as exempting you from all taxes on fishery for three years. You don't need to pay taxes on buying boats, selling fish, etc. If you buy fry, aquatic plants, etc., We can provide you with a five-year interest-free loan, and then rebate 5% of the payment. We will place a Coast Guard station near you to strengthen coastal patrols and ensure the safety of your fishing grounds." Listening to Jiang Hai's tentative words Mayor Wallis hesitated and said, but after hearing his words, Jiang Hai's eyes lit up instantly.
Ten thousand U.S. dollars per square kilometer is indeed a bit high. If it were on the Gulf of Mexico, three thousand U.S. dollars per square kilometer, no, one thousand U.S. dollars per square kilometer, would not be considered expensive by anyone, especially in this area. The sea, not the land. If Winthrop's territory were worth ten thousand dollars per square kilometer, it would definitely be a bargain, but it would not be worth much on the sea.
And the most important thing is that once sold, it will cost 20,000 square kilometers and cost 10,000 US dollars, which is 200 million US dollars.
The most important thing is that it has to be paid in one lump sum, 200 million, which is a beautiful dollar, and it is also a bit distressing for Jiang Hai.
But more importantly, he heard what was said later, about the five percent rebate, which Jiang Hai didn't care about. The establishment of a coast patrol was indeed a good thing for Jiang Hai, but it was the best, the best, and the best. The good thing is the three-year tax exemption...
Of course, what they can reduce is the state tax. He cannot reduce the 37% of the national tax. But even if the state tax is eliminated, Jiang Hai can save a lot of money. That is only 5%. Haiguang's fishery income this year must be more than 2 billion US dollars, 5% of more than 2 billion US dollars, even 5% of 2 billion US dollars, it is still 100 million US dollars, a reduction of 30% In the year, even if Jiang Hai didn't invest, he could still make it cheaper in the past three years. He spent 200 million to buy the land, but it turned out to be 300 million cheaper in three years. This is an out-and-out good thing.
And the most important thing is that after Jiang Hai bought the sea, he would definitely plant seaweed and raise fish fry. After planting the sea of grass and raising fish fry.
Will he still make this money next year, or the year after? Will he earn more? If his business becomes 4 billion a year, he will be equivalent to saving 200 million. If it becomes 6 billion, it will be equivalent to saving 300 million. Jiang Hai's eyes lit up in an instant. .
He is not stupid, he still calculates this account clearly. This not-so-good news is absolutely good news for Jiang Hai.
Thinking of this, he immediately called Moses Adams. Tomorrow, they were going to kill this matter.
"Uh, are you really going to buy it? That's 20,000 square kilometers." Hearing Jiang Hai call to sign the contract tomorrow, Mayor Wallis was a little confused. Two hundred million US dollars, plus The money to develop there is almost 200 million, so Jiang Hai just agreed?
"It's okay, we have an old saying in China, if you don't want to let your children catch the wolf, I know it well." Jiang Hai listened to Mayor Wallis's words and put down the phone with a smile. This is a very promising thing. Why? Do you agree or not?
"Uh, okay, let's talk about things on land. This is the bad news..." After hearing that Jiang Hai was determined to buy, Mayor Wallis did not dissuade him. He also knew that it was useless to persuade him. , because Jiang Hai knew what he was doing.
Jiang Hai is not as stupid as they thought. When they learned that someone spent 300 million to buy this manor, they all said, who is sick and would buy this thing? Isn’t this waiting for money?
But what now? Who else would say such a thing? Everyone knows that Jiang Hai made more than one billion a year.
He is now spending 200 million to buy that piece of sea. Who knows if he has a better way to make money?
I heard that he made a lot of money at the fish industry exhibition a while ago, and he delivered fish every day, but obviously they didn't know that Jiang Hai's real big head was not in these fish, but in these fish. After confirming this matter, Mayor Wallis shut his mouth.
"What's the bad news? Tell me about it?" After listening to Mayor Wallis's words, Jiang Hai thought for a moment and asked him. Things that he could call bad news did not seem to be easy to deal with.
"I basically went to check out all the houses on land, but to be honest, none of them were definitely for sale. Firstly, because Winthrop has developed now, they can see that their land will be sold in the future. It is valuable, so even if the manor was not very profitable originally, they have no intention of selling it. Secondly, it seems that a family is also acquiring these lands..." Looking at Jiang Hai, Mayor Wallis said seriously.
"Someone wants to take over these lands? Who is it?" Hearing what Mayor Wallis said, Jiang Hai frowned. He knew the first thing, but he didn't care, because he had a lot of money, and these manors Lord, he just wants to exchange the land on his hands for some money.
In the United States, inheritance taxes are extremely heavy, and consumption is encouraged here, so 70% of normal Americans have some kind of loan.
For these houses, after the elderly people die, their children will not have the money to inherit these houses and the arrears.
They will still have to sell it then, but now Jiang Hai directly offers a high price, which can basically be collected.
At most, the asking price would be 20% higher, but he would still be able to earn it back anyway. If these manors are connected together, and if charged at 120% of the market price, the total cost would be more than $50 million, and these sites would add up to more than $50 million. Together, it is more than three times larger than Jiang Hai's manor.
Just selling grass in these places, Jiang Hai can sell one billion a year, so he can afford to buy it even if he adds 10% to it. However, someone is raising the price with him. This surprised Jiang Hai.
"Who is raising the price? Do they also want to buy land?" In the United States, land is actually not valuable.
It may be due to different consumption concepts. In the United States, things like houses and land are indeed not very valuable, and not many people can buy them...
"It seems that it is Carlite Company. They also want to take over these territories." Seeing Jiang Hai ask, Mayor Wallis hesitated and said. After hearing his words, Jiang Hai also understood and instantly remembered the previous These days, Gladstone Narga said that it seems that Carlite Company has got together with some club in an island country, and wants to organize themselves. It seems that they will set up a new farm next to themselves, which is also theirs. Planned, but what Jiang Hai is least afraid of is this kind of competition, let them do it if they have the ability.
"Tomorrow we will go and sign the contracts over the sea first, and then I will go to these homes to ask in person." After making up his mind, Jiang Hai smiled at Mayor Wallis, and then said clearly, after hearing After Jiang Hai said this, Mayor Wallis wouldn't say anything more. After all, this was Jiang Hai's matter. It was inevitable that Jiang Hai would settle this matter.
Early the next morning, Jiang Hai and Mayor Wallis went to Boston. Today, Moses Adams knew that Jiang Hai had a big business.
Naturally, he did not dare to delay and came to the company early. After Jiang Hai arrived, he immediately went downstairs and followed Jiang Hai to the Massachusetts government. The foreign government was not very different from the domestic market.
In the United States or Europe, foreign governments are very cowardly. Even if they meet ordinary people, let alone rich people, they have to smile and go to the city hall if they want to go to the toilet. , no one is stopping you at all.
You know, if this were in China, let alone just one session of ****, even a person like Jiang Hai who took advantage of tens of billions of soft girl coins, let alone meeting the mayor, *********, etc. Yes, even if he saw an office director, secretary-general or the like, Jiang Hai would still have to lower his head and smile. This is the essential difference between the official standard and the gold standard.
After Jiang Hai arrived here, he explained his purpose of coming, and the top land administrator in Massachusetts met Jiang Hai immediately.
After discussing benefits in detail, there was nothing left to say. Regarding legal matters, the municipal government naturally had lawyers, and Jiang Hai was handed over to Moses Adams. Moses Adams was still very powerful. Not only did he save Jiang Haisan The fishery tax is not the only benefit.
Moreover, the subsidy for fish fry and other things was increased from the original 5% to 8%. Although it was only a small amount of money, Jiang Hai also liked to take advantage of it. After everything was settled, Jiang Hai A contract was also signed with the municipal government.
Jiang Hai then transferred $200 million directly into the Massachusetts government bank.
From then on, the large sea area outside Jiang Hai's manor became Jiang Hai's back garden. It was really a huge territory.
After negotiating the biggest business deal, Jiang Hai also invited Moses Adams and Mayor Wallis to have a meal as a small celebration. Then Moses Adams went to work, and Jiang Hai returned After visiting Winthrop and sending Mayor Wallis home, he thought about who he should visit. After all, he was going to Europe soon. What if he found someone in his home when he came back? Next to him, these lands were taken over by the Carlite Company. He was probably as sick as if he had eaten a fly.
However, although he has met all the people nearby, his relationship is not particularly good. The only one with a good relationship may be Old George's house. After all, he bought a horse there and also met Old George's daughter. Ahem...
So after Jiang Hai thought for a while, he decided to go to Old George's place to have a look first. It is estimated that based on their friendship, it is unlikely that he would mess with him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hai also started the engine and drove his own battle shield to Bob George's racecourse.
As soon as the car stopped, he saw Delia George walking out of the room from a distance. When she saw that it was Jiang Hai's car, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes and she immediately ran away from the villa. Come over, lie down in front of the door and look at Jiang Hai.
