Text Chapter 18 Inherited Property
David waited quietly for a while, and then said, "There is another farm here, located at..."
Zhou Jiexi's eyes lit up when David mentioned the farm, and he hurriedly interrupted David's words. Although he knew it was a little impolite, but the stimulation was too great, "What, you are talking about the farm. The kind that grows and grazes."
"Yes, sir."
"Sorry to interrupt you, but can you introduce this farm?" Zhou Jiexi apologized first, after all, he was doing his duty to introduce it.
David smiled and said it doesn't matter, seeing Zhou Jiexi's excited look, he knew that he was very interested in this. "Sure enough, people in the Celestial Dynasty are very obsessed with land." David came up with this idea naturally, the reason is very simple, don't you see that the rich people of the Celestial Dynasty are now wantonly enclosing land all over the world. Came abroad to make wind and rain.
The U.S. emperors are now shouting that this is an "invasion" by the Chinese Empire. Perhaps in a hundred years, the whole world will plant red flags all over the world because of the rich people of the Chinese Empire. That really liberated the world and realized the path of... Greatism, of course this is a joke.
However, it can also be seen that the people of the Celestial Dynasty love the land and have a plot with the landlord. Moreover, if you bought land in the United States, it belongs to you, unlike the Celestial Dynasty, which still has property rights for how many years. But this is good, there is also a troublesome thing, that is, to pay taxes for the land continuously. Anyway, how many years do you live, then how many years do you have to pay, if you don’t pay in any year, or you can’t pay taxes, then wait for the house to be auctioned!
"Okay, Mr. Zhou, this is a large comprehensive farm located in California, but it was a little abandoned after it was bought by Mr. Bard. The farm has an area of 1,140 square kilometers, about 110,400 hectares land."
"It includes forests, swamps, mountains, large grasslands, lakes, creeks, etc. It has two vineyards, two wineries, a golf course, and a small horse farm. The scale of agricultural and pastoral development on the farm It's not big. Mr. Bard bought it mainly for vacation, so it was abolished and streamlined a lot. After all, he has no intention of operating it, but now the farm has appreciated a lot. Now if it is listed for sale, the estimated price It may reach more than 250 million."
"In addition to production, the farm also has a lot of luxury facilities, I think you will like it. From the main house of 10,000 square feet, you can overlook the Merced River and the vast grassland. There is also an indoor swimming pool. Various recreational activities can be carried out on the land, such as trout fishing, lake swimming, hunting and watching wild animals." David also said a little excitedly.
In fact, after he was hired by the old man, he also went there to enjoy it, and later he also had the idea of buying a farm. In the United States, a farm is an ordinary commodity. As long as you have money and like it, you can buy it. You don’t need to apply for approval, banquets or bribes. Once you buy it, it will last forever from generation to generation.
Many farms are outside the city's planning and their use is not restricted. You can buy a productive farm with good soil to grow crops, you can buy a breeding farm with average soil to raise cattle and horses, or you can choose a farm with beautiful scenery and good transportation. It is convenient to build buildings on farms, build hotels, build nursing homes, and build golf courses.
Turn your farm into an entertainment venue for the world to play, maybe one day, your carefully crafted farm. Just like the Butcher Garden on Victoria Island, it is world-famous, attracting millions of people to visit every year, making a fortune every day.
David is also considered a high-income group. Although the stable income is not as rich as those of the rich, he can buy small ones instead of big ones. So he also bought a small farm for the whole family to use on vacation, fishing and riding horses in his spare time. It can also relieve the fatigue caused by boring work.
Zhou Jiexi felt that he was the reincarnation of some illegitimate son of a god, seeing that he could not do well. Simply give you a cheating tool, and give you a fortune to do whatever you want in the future, that feels so happy.
This farm is definitely what Zhou Jiexi is most interested in. He likes it even more than the previous ones. Although the value is not as high as those properties, it is what Zhou Jiexi needs most. And it's such a big farm, what's more, the numbers don't feel that big. The current size of Zhou Jiexi's farm can already be compared with Zhonghai's Chong Ming Island, and it's even bigger. If it is not intuitive enough, you can go to the ferry to look at the map.
"In addition to these, there are several technology stocks and company shares. They are 1.5 million shares of Apple stock. According to the average price of today's opening price of 140 US dollars, the value is 210 million. 1 million shares of Google stock, today's opening price The average price is 420 US dollars, about 420 million. There are also 2% of Facebook shares, and the current valuation is 8 billion or 160 million US dollars. These are the most optimistic investments of Mr. Bard, and they are also handled by Mr. Bard Get rid of other stocks and assets, and keep them for you." David said.
At this time, Zhou Jiexi was no longer thinking about Bud's money, but sighed at the precise vision of the old man Bud. Although Jesse Zhou was a prostitute in her previous life, she still knows about the technology company with the highest growth rate in the US Empire and the most valuable technology company. These companies of the future are almost universally known, and they are related to every moment of people's lives. A large number of billionaires have been created. Zhou Jiexi should have known about Apple because of Jobs, let alone Google. Everyone knows more or less.
Facebook has gradually paid attention to tax evasion incidents because of their co-founders. Although its opening stock price was quite high, its stock price shrank very quickly, and after a period of time, it was almost only half of the original price. But compared to now, the price is almost several times higher.
"Others include shares in sports companies, a 20% stake in the NBA's Golden State Warriors, and a 10% stake in the Premier League's Arsenal. There is also $50 million in cash, which Mr. Budd wants to give You still have cash in your property stock shares, and there are more detailed schedules in the information."
Zhou Jiexi has become numb after hearing this, and feels that money is just a bunch of numbers, but a bunch of happy data. Those strings of zeros always make Zhou Jiexi feel elated.
Next came some legal issues, which Zhao Jie discussed with Huo De and David. During the period, several people ate pizza in Huo De's office, and Zhou Jiexi signed a copy of the transfer documents and was busy all afternoon. A few people were busy, Zhou Jiexi turned on the computer and played Tetris, or crossed his legs to watch them busy there.
Time flies by like a fleeting moment, and it will never return, but ripples are caused.
In the next few days, with the help of several people, Zhou Jiexi went through the naturalization procedures under the pretext of investment immigration. As long as Zhou Jiexi has completed the asset certificate, investment certificate, and other bits and pieces, but these are not the main thing, in fact, as long as you bring a large amount of Franklin, Lao Mei will never turn you away In addition, she opened the door and lay down on the bed, then spread her legs to welcome your arrival.
The number of times the U.S. emperor has done special affairs is definitely comparable to that of the Celestial Dynasty. Zhou Jiexi soon arrived at the Immigration Bureau, and took the naturalization test alone with the chief examiner. Zhou Jiexi's English reading and writing is no problem, and there are some American history and laws. Such hundreds of years of history are really nothing compared to the history exams from the Celestial Dynasty. It can be said that they are weak.
What's more, Zhou Jiexi's mind has become more and more active recently, and his memory has become much better. He is definitely comparable to ordinary geniuses in this world, but there is still a gap between those talented humans. So it is still necessary to cling to the book and gnaw to death. Although it was said that cheating and bribery could be used, Zhou Jiexi didn't want to leave a stain on small things, so he didn't do it. During the period, I also went to the space to work overtime with the characteristic that the space time is longer than the reality.
Among them, Zhou Jiexi was even proud, "Nimma, in the past, all the pig feet in the novels were all practiced in the space, buddy retreated and studied hard? Is this happiness? Or is it happiness? But it's still a pretense." B is a magic tool, maybe I can be a genius in the future." But my heart was full of helplessness and wept secretly, "Sure enough, behind every genius there is a history of suffering, even a suave person like my brother is no exception Ah." Zhou Jiexi, who was "studying hard on a beam" in the space, thought silently.
Later, when Zhou Jiexi went to take the exam, he realized that it seemed that he could cheat unconsciously by placing the book in the space. Zhou Jiexi was immediately depressed, really depressed, especially the chest dream, which was the same as the two dots on the chest during the second development. It was as if I had hit the cotton with a hard punch, it was indescribably uncomfortable.
After completing the naturalization procedures at the fastest speed, Zhou Jiexi signed all the documents. At this time, everything really belongs to him, and it is legal and reasonable after tax, so there is no need for Zhou Jiexi to pay it separately.
During this period, Jessie Zhou hired David as his own accountant, and fully accepted his accounting team, so that Jessie Zhou, who didn't know much about the United States, would not be bothered by the complicated tax issues in the United States. And many things can help Zhou Jiexi in the future, making Zhou Jiexi proud of his decision.
Originally, he wanted to hire Huo De to help him with his legal business in the future. After all, Zhao Jie was still too young for a lawyer, so he could only work as an assistant and consultant. It's a pity that Huode said that he is going to retire soon, which makes Zhou Jiexi feel a little regretful. However, he introduced his son, a colleague who is also a partner of this firm, to Zhou Jiexi. At first, Jessie Zhou thought that Yankees were also cronyists, but Huo De's son, Harvey, convinced Zhou Jiexi and Zhao Jie with his outstanding work ability.
Speaking of Hodder's son, Harvey, he is also a very powerful character. He is an outstanding graduate of Harvard Law School's graduates. It is also a legendary existence at Haval. Perhaps proud people always find ways to prove themselves, so they did not enter his father's office after graduation. Instead, I chose to join another law firm, from an assistant lawyer to a well-known barrister, and a junior partner of this firm.
Later, when he was about to become a senior partner, Huode recruited his son back and became a partner of his own firm. Not only is there no gossip in the company, but it is also very fortunate that Huo De has such a relationship with Harvey. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to get Harvey, but the price paid is also free. In Harvey’s words , Forget it, let’s translate it into Mandarin. That is "Brothers settle accounts clearly."
Zhao Jie became Zhou Jiexi's assistant and consultant. Regardless of whether he could take care of it or not, Zhou Jiexi would ask when he was free to show his care and support for the consultant. Zhao Jie also likes this well-paid job. Although there are personal relationships involved in getting this job, Zhao Jie is not a pedantic person, so he readily accepts it, and the job is done in a decent way.
Zhou Jiexi is also trying to be a trapeze now, flying to New York's Fifth Avenue to say hello to the tenants and re-sign the contract. Then I flew to San Francisco, said hello to the general manager of the real estate company in charge of managing the apartment building, and signed the contract casually. There is also a party to connect with several major tenants.
