Chapter 1364: Continue to Spend Money

Since the scope of Shi Lei's request was already very narrow, the other party's quotation was quickly sent to Shi Lei's mailbox.

Shi Lei got up and washed himself. When he returned to the bedroom, he turned on the computer.

Then, in the lower right corner of the computer, it showed that there was a new email.

After opening the new email, Shi Lei subconsciously wanted to pick up the cup next to him, but suddenly found that the cup was empty.

I wanted to pour some water to drink, but found that there was no water in the kettle.

It seems that a mansion still needs a housekeeper and servants. Otherwise, no matter whether you live here or not, someone has to take care of the house.

Shi Lei stood up and got himself a bottle of water. While drinking, Shi Lei browsed the quotation list.

It’s really not complicated, there are only seven types of yachts in total.

The cheapest one is more than 8 million euros, and the most expensive one is 20 million euros.

It seems that the guy who compiled the quotation is quite smart. Although Shi Lei asked for more than 10 million euros, but more than 8 million is extremely close to 10 million. Shi Lei has to choose whether to choose or not. Maybe he will list it. Is necessary.

After all, if you order a yacht from this company, it may not be used in Paris, or even in Europe. When shipping to other countries, there will be some shipping and tax issues.

A yacht worth more than eight million yuan, taking into account different taxes and fees, will definitely cost tens of millions.

It was precisely because of the reminder of the end of the email that Shi Lei also thought of this.

So, while looking at the pictures of the yachts, he called the company again.

Obviously, the other party has replaced Shi Lei's call with a dedicated person. Otherwise, if this call is made, it may not be answered by the salesperson just now.

But as soon as the call was answered, the other party immediately said politely: "Hello Mr. Shi, have you seen our quotation?"

Shi Lei was very satisfied with the other party's service and said with a smile: "I've seen it. Thanks to the reminder at the end of your email, I remembered that there is also the issue of taxes and fees. I need to place this yacht in the Magic City of China. . So, I’m afraid you need to re-formulate the quotation. What I want to see is the final total price, not your sales price.”

“You mean you’d like to see the price with customs duties and excise taxes and final shipping charges added on?”

"yes."

"Okay, please wait a moment. It will take about twenty minutes for me to process it. A new quotation will be sent to your mailbox soon."

"Besides, I'm in London now, and I don't want to make a special trip for this matter. You guys..."

The other party immediately understood what Shi Lei meant. It was a joke. It was a business worth tens of millions of euros for anything, and it was a place not far away like London. Of course, the other party agreed in a hurry.

"Don't worry, once you confirm your intention to purchase, we will send someone to London to discuss the relevant details with you."

Shi Lei nodded and said, "Okay, then you can make the quotation first."

After hanging up the phone, Shi Lei searched online again and found a local butler service company in London.

After making a phone call, the other party heard that a castle would be equipped with butlers and servants, and immediately said that they could go to Shi Lei's castle to discuss it in detail.

After Shi Lei gave the other party his address, he told them to bring him some breakfast.

Of course this is not within the scope of the other party's services, but in the face of such a customer, what reason would there be for them to refuse?

Moreover, people from that company came very quickly. In just half an hour, they arrived at Shi Lei's castle with a steaming breakfast.

At this moment, Shi Lei had received the second quotation from the yacht company and was looking at it.

After adding taxes, freight and other expenses, the cheapest yacht on the quotation becomes more than 13 million euros.

The most expensive one directly costs over 30 million euros.

At the same time, there is also a schedule. Payment methods are listed on the schedule.

In addition to full payment, this company also offers installment payment methods for ready-made products.

The down payment only requires one-tenth, and for the remaining part, you can apply for a two-year interest-free loan.

To put it bluntly, customers are allowed two years to pay off all the payments without interest. And this installment method is also relatively flexible, with a maximum period of three months and eight periods of two years.

This is more in line with Shi Lei's wishes.

Shi Lei was just calculating how he should pay to best use the amount, when the doorbell rang.

From the monitor, he saw a Jaguar car. Shi Lei guessed that it was someone from the housekeeping company, so he opened the door by remote control and said to the intercom: "Park the car wherever you want. Please wait in the living room after entering. I will be there soon." Go downstairs."

After finishing speaking, Shi Lei hugged his laptop, changed his clothes, and walked down.

In the process, he also figured out how to make the payment in his best interest.

In the end, he chose a yacht with a total value of 30 million euros after taxes and freight. The down payment was 10 million euros, and the remaining 20 million euros would be paid in four installments of three months each. . It is payable within one year, with an additional five million euros in each installment.

In this way, Shi Lei would need to pay more than 70 million soft sister coins for the down payment, and then pay close to 40 million soft sister coins three months later, for a total of more than 110 million. This can consume as much of his remaining 150 million consumption quota as possible.

The remaining three installments will be for the next credit cycle and the next credit cycle.

As for the remaining 30 million in the credit, Shi Lei estimated that he would have to spend so much money in half a year. After all, his expenses are increasing day by day, and there is no guarantee that he will need to spend a lot of money somewhere.

After going downstairs, Shi Lei saw the person from the housekeeping company. He nodded to him and continued to talk to the person on the phone about the purchase of the yacht and the payment method.

The other party said that there was no problem, and then asked Shi Lei when it would be convenient for him to come and sign the contract with him. Shi Lei said the sooner the better, and the other party made an appointment with him in the afternoon.

After hanging up the phone, the person from the housekeeping company also understood that Shi Lei had bought a yacht worth 30 million euros, and his attitude became more attentive.

Without much effort, Shi Lei reached a consensus with the housekeeping company, an old British housekeeper, a gardener, and two maids, one of whom must be able to cook simple meals.

Although the configuration of these four people is a bit shabby compared to this castle, Shi Lei told the other party that the total time he lived here in a year might hardly exceed two months, and the other party understood.

The contract was signed on the spot, and Shi Lei also directly paid the four people's annual salary. Of course, these salaries are paid to the company, and they will be paid weekly.

After paying the service fee, Shi Lei saw the guests off.

The butler, servants and gardeners were in place an hour later. Shi Lei finally stopped living alone in this huge castle, and the castle finally became a little popular.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the yacht company called and said that the commissioner had arrived in London and was about to arrive at the castle.

Now there is a butler to entertain, Shi Lei only needs to wait for people to come in, and no longer needs to open the door for the other party himself.
