Chapter 1: A Rebooted Life
April 1, 1979
It's a day to remember.
Well, at least for William White.
I really don't understand, is Mr. God also celebrating April Fool's Day?
Otherwise, how could you choose this day.
William White is a second-generation die-hard who inherited a large fortune after his parents were accidentally killed in a plane crash.
It's a pity that he was too capable of death in his previous life. not only ruined all the family business, but also caused five labors and seven injuries to himself.
Luckily, he ran out of money. His life also came to an end. Luckily, this product was actually reborn.
Suddenly, the brain is working uncontrollably. A lot of information of all kinds was frantically instilled.
What's wrong with me?
Why are there so many memory fragments?
No, no, what the hell is this David Liszt? Isn't it the street writer in the seat next door?
That's right, airplanes.
Oh my God, isn't it an air current?
This phenomenon is so supernatural, could it be that I have encountered a wormhole or a space storm?
Based on the contents of the brain, the poor fellows are probably finished.
Alas, is it another plane crash? The planes of this world are so.
When he thought of the plane crash, William thought of his parents.
Although he is a young man, he has a very good relationship with his parents. His mother, in particular, was really doting on him.
Well, his mother is a Chinese woman.
Generally speaking, Chinese Americans are more spoiled by their children. This thing is what is engraved in the soul. It has nothing to do with your nationality.
"Mom, don't worry, I will live well. I will be your pride. William muttered silently in his heart, and before he knew it, he was already in tears.
Knock knock, knock knock
"Young Master, you haven't eaten for a day. ”
"I know Fauber, I'll take a shower and come out. ”
"Okay, young master"
Fauber is his old butler, let alone him, even his mother respects him very much. The old man came to the United States with his grandfather. On the surface, he is a housekeeper, but in fact he is the same as a relative. This is his grandfather's brother in life and death.
Fu Bo also sighed, the eldest lady has been gone for almost half a year. The young master still hasn't recovered, so it's not okay to go on like this. There is not even a single person in the family who is in charge. That's how it can be good.
William felt a little weird, his strength seemed to be a little greater, and his mind seemed to be clearer. Is this the benefit of crossing?
Well, William Jr. seems to be a little stronger, too. It's a pity that it's useless now. It looks like I haven't gone crazy for a long time.
Changing into casual clothes, William left his bedroom. Now he's hungry. I just don't know what to eat tonight.
"Fauber, what's there to eat at night, I'm a little hungry now. ”
"Young master, today's steak is good. Very fresh. The truffle soup was also very good. ”
"Yes, Fauber, bring me a wine bar. I'm almost 19, you can't keep me in check. ”
"Okay, young master, but it's only one cup. ”
"Okay, okay"
Seeing that his young master was in a good mood, Fu Bo did not preach. I hope the young master recovers soon, but this can't be the case at home.
William White was still very depressed, if he had come back a year earlier. Parents won't have accidents. Parents' vacation plans can also be changed. I really don't understand, what's so nice about the pyramids.
Alas......
The family foundation left by my father is still very thick. Although not a top rich man. But a proper billionaire.
The billionaires of this era are basically equivalent to the billionaires of 19 years.
Now the millionaire is already very bullish. Billionaires belong to the top of the pyramid.
Although Dad had a plan, this accident was too sudden. Being robbed by the tax department is simply unavoidable.
To say that the inheritance tax of Lao Mei is really ruthless, half of the family property will be confiscated. Although many ways have been used to avoid taxes. But the industry left by my father is still very hit.
The family's main industries are farms and oil fields. As soon as these taxes are paid, they are over. Either lose the farm or lose the oil field.
"Fauber, how is the family's property?"
"Young Master. ”
Seeing that Faub wanted to speak and stopped, William White couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Tell me, Fauber, I have to take on this responsibility. Just say it. ”
"Okay, young master, White Oil has been suppressed recently. The stock price continues to be depressed, and it seems to be being targeted. ”
"Well, how much cash do we have?"
"There are about 30 million dollars missing. ”
"I see, Fauber, apply for a deferral of estate tax. See what will change recently. ”
"Okay, young master. I will inform the accountant immediately. ”
Inheritance tax is actually a bad tax, and this thing is useless to the rich class. They have all sorts of means to circumvent it.
But in the case of William White, this is a big problem. If one is not handled well, the family's property will not be saved.
In the context of the oil crisis, his father successfully counterattacked. But it also offended a lot of oil tycoons. This is the reason for the stock price turmoil.
William White had no interest in the oil industry. But that doesn't mean people can take advantage of their family.
It seems that how to quickly circle a sum of money is serious. You can't be fooled by those bastards.
William White remembers very well that his family's oil company was sold cheaply in his previous life. The stock worth 200 million US dollars was only sold for more than 50 million in the end.
By the way, it's the Hunter family. His family's oil field eventually went to the Hunter family.
Isn't this bastard a silver smash?
Wait, Silver?
Haha! I have a way, see how you die?
Although it is a capital country, the pursuit of profit can be unscrupulous. But there aren't many like the Hunters. After all, the relationship between the two families is not bad. This level of falling into the well is a bit excessive.
As the heir to hundreds of millions of assets, the funds that can be used now are only a few million. Although it is already very powerful. But it still looks a little aggrieved.
Inheritance tax must be paid within nine months. It is possible to apply for an extension once. That's six months, before you pay your taxes. These assets have nothing to do with you.
The farm is very quiet at night, looking at the pitch black night sky. William White was very confused. The day was too long for him. It feels like half a century has passed.
He can't stay on the farm anymore, and Texas is really not suitable for his development. Neither farming nor oil is his favorite industry. Taking advantage of the good price of oil in recent years, it is better to dispose of it quickly.
Engaging in oil in the United States is actually very. This thing is all oligopolistic by a few. There is simply not much room for others to survive. There is no residue left to be eaten sooner or later.
In fact, the White family is also a veteran capitalist, but unfortunately the family is not prosperous. Now it's even worse, there is only one single seedling left. If William had any more accidents, the White family would have declared his death.
It seems that the continuation of the family inheritance can only rely on itself. For the prosperity of the family, it is still necessary to have a few more children. I really can't figure out why my father and mother don't have more children. If you have several siblings, it is much easier to manage the family business.
