American Ranch

Chapter 76 Upstart

Back home, Chen Xiao and Zhang Xia were grilling oysters and seafood at home...

With a furnace of charcoal and a barbed wire fence, Chen Mo asked about the aroma when he got off the car, and walked over to get a garlic abalone.

The abalone in California is fat and big, with the aroma of minced garlic, the taste is so delicious: "Abalone is still sold in this season?"

"Only a few were bought from the fishermen at the wharf."

"This abalone...beautiful." Chen Mo ate one in two bites.

Zhang Xia's face was flushed... Chen Xiao spat hard: "Being old and disrespectful, I won't leave food for you in the future."

Chen Chen walked over with a smile, and also took an abalone, and scalded his mouth with one mouthful...

Chen Mo poured Chen Chen a glass of soda water: "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Zhang Xia smiled and handed Chen Chen a tissue...

The puppet cat at home has grown up a lot and is becoming more and more beautiful.I was sleeping in the room just now, and I vaguely heard Chen Mo's voice poking at the door, so I walked slowly with small steps.

Chen Mo hugged it in his arms: "You have gained weight again."

Aphra let out a 'meow' in dissatisfaction, while in Chen Mo's arms, she wanted Chen Mo to scratch her head...

"Brother, are you going to move to the ranch in the future?" Chen Xiao snatched Aphra from Chen Mo's arms, and said.

"Well, it should be, come back to live occasionally, don't miss me too much."

"Leave Aphra to me."

"Okay." Chen Mo said with a smile, Brett was driving an RV on the way here.

Chen Mo has two dogs and two cats in his car.

Afula looks weak and weak. She saw Dahua and Ari in the pasture, and she was not bullied to death.

The fog over the San Francisco Bay lifted after noon and the sun came out.

After eating barbecue, Chen Mo turned on the faucet and turned on the two Lamborghinis and Lexus to wash...

Even washing the car becomes a lot of fun when the whole family does it together.

"Why, you look like an idiot."

Chen Chen looked at the Lamborghini and smirked, his eyes were sometimes dull and sometimes excited: "Brother, let me drive the car."

"Idiot." Chen Xiao laughed beside him and said, "I lend you my car."

Chen Chen looked at Chen Xiao's BMW Z4 with a look of disgust...

Chen Mo stretched his waist, took out his checkbook and filled out two checks for 500 million US dollars, and handed one to Chen Chen and Chen Xiao: "Save the flowers, and there will be no more in the future."

"500 million!" Chen Xiao quickly shook his head: "Aren't you sending money to the tax bureau?"

In the United States, as long as you have income, you have to pay taxes, no matter how the money comes from.Gift money is also subject to tax...

However, there are loopholes.

If you donate 1000 million, you will have to pay millions of taxes. Isn't this crazy?

"Are you stupid..." Chen Mo rolled his eyes, the money from selling the Snow Mountain Ranch has already been taxed, and the money in Chen Mo's bank does not need to be taxed again: "It's tax filing season again, you just say this money I lent it to you. Only personal income needs to be taxed, and how to declare tax is not a one-sentence matter..."

"Hee hee..." Chen Xiao pursed her lips and smiled, not daring to take it, 500 million, instantly become rich and beautiful, do you...

She knew that Chen Mo was not short of money, and his net worth was several hundred million... 500 million, to Chen Mo, it was a drizzle.But after all, it's 500 million...too much.

"Take it? No, I'll take it back." Chen Mo looked at Chen Chen and Chen Xiao with a smile.

Both of them are the same, wanting it, but not daring to want it.

"Thank you brother." Chen Chen quickly took the check.

Chen Xiao also shrank her neck and put the check in her pocket...

Chen Mo pressed his head one by one: "The money is given to you, I want you to live a better life, don't let me waste it, low-key, low-key is king."

"Yeah, keep a low profile." Chen Xiao nodded vigorously: "I want to buy a few bags, can I?"

"Okay. Don't become a fetish... If you have money, you should go to work or go to work."

"Hey... I know."

Chen Chen took Zhang Xia's hand: "Brother, I want to buy a sports car."

"There are two in the garage, you can open them as you like."

Zhang Xia smiled and pinched Chen Chen lightly: "Don't make big brother unhappy."

"I want to drive a Ferrari."

"Okay, if you want to buy it, go for it. Don't buy a turbo steamed duck, buy a self-priming big V8, V12. Buy it and love it and drive it. It will be worth selling second-hand cars in the future, and the depreciation will not be too great..."

"Okay brother." Chen Chen said with excitement on his face.

Chen Mo took the car keys of the old Daniel and handed them to Chen Chen: "Come on, take me out for a drive."

"Let's go too..." Chen Xiao pulled Zhang Xia up, ran into the garage and drove the other one out.

Compared with domestic prices, luxury goods such as sports cars are really cheap here...

If you buy one car in China, you can almost buy two cars here.But the cost of owning a car is not bad at all compared with domestic ones.

The income in the United States is high, calculated according to the exchange rate...

Some people have calculated such an account. According to the average salary in the United States, it only takes a few years to buy a Ferrari or Lamborghini, but why are there so few of these cars? It is because Americans have passed the stage of nouveau riche?Have a higher spiritual pursuit?
fart!
The United States has a special muscle car culture, and muscle cars with high horsepower sell well here.

why?
It's cheap, you can't afford a luxury sports car.

For the working class in the United States, a luxury car worth more than 20 yuan is still out of reach.Owning Ferrari and Lamborghini is also a very cool thing in the United States.

The higher the income, the higher the disposable income.

A supercar is a supercar, it is the same in any country, just like your dad will always be your dad, seeing your dad is basically a virtue...

Even in the community where Chen Mo lives, Lamborghini's return rate is also very high.Don't look at these people who live in houses with millions of dollars, can do whatever they want, and buy supercars if they want, there are less than ten families.The richer people lived on Backbone Mountain, the top of Mill Valley.

The two supercars drove out of the community one after the other and got on the highway.

Only then did Chen Chen relax a bit, and said with a smile: "Brother, are we considered a standard nouveau riche?"

"Upstarts describe people who are ugly, and we call them upstarts. They are handsome and rich..." Chen Mo put on his seat belt and lit a cigarette: "You should buy a convertible. Sports cars like Ferraris are easy to buy. Occasionally drive, the sunshine in this place in California is good, it is suitable for driving a sports car to go out and have fun.”

"I want an 812, self-priming V12, I heard it's very powerful."

"Whatever, I'm a nouveau riche anyway, so I can buy whatever I want, as long as I'm happy. You can buy as many as you want...Anyway, we are rich."

With 500 million US dollars in cash, he can be regarded as a real rich man in the United States.Having a net worth of 500 million and having 500 million cash that does not need to be taxed are completely two concepts.

In the United States, even if the annual salary is 50, which is fixed, according to the consumption habits of the vast majority of Americans, it is likely that they will not be able to save 500 million in their lifetime.Even if you use the extra money to invest in financial management every year, it's the same...

A person with 500 million in cash is a real cow, and he walks with wind.

Chen Chen and Chen Xiao walked into the bank, opened an account, exchanged the check into money, and opened a black card (credit card).

In China, except for high-consumption places that directly use bank cards or credit cards, most of the time credit cards are not used, and mobile phones are used for payment.But not in the U.S., where credit cards are used in most places to spend...
