Chapter 659: I Can't Afford to Die
Put aside the question of whether it is good or not, anyway, it will be idle and idle, Zhang Nan began to call again to "harass" his exclusive consultant of Yuntong - listening to the voice, it was a lady, and her name was also, referred to as Jenny, but she had never met.

"Mr. Allen, if you really want to build a fantastic super castle, then I strongly recommend that you not choose a site in the United States, or the guys from the tax office will be eyeing you like vampires.
And according to federal and Montana regulations, your castle is not eligible for farm subsidies and tax incentives, and the high annual property tax will be tied to you and your family for generations, although you shouldn't care much about those costs.
But as your advisor, I still have to say that because you build a castle, the tax office will definitely send you a real estate valuation notice with sufficient weight when the property is valued for the property tax every year.
With an annual tax of about 0.6% and interest and other factors, according to the most optimistic estimates, in less than 100 years, you will pay enough taxes to build another castle.
And, Mr. Allen, out of professional ethics, I have to remind you again that the Coalition Estate Tax uses an excess progressive system, with 18 levels of tax rates, ranging from 18% to 55%.
Given the size of the castle you might build, you're bound to be taxed the highest amount in a hundred years!"
Summary: I can't afford to die!
"Hell the Tax! These bastards! Vampire ..."
After Jenny finished speaking, of course, Zhang Nan couldn't help but scold on the other end of the phone, although these situations had already been known, and the departments in the "Sunshine Star" group that specialized in dealing with the tax bureau were not furnishings, and there were already various ways to deal with the tax bureau.
But there are some things that don't work with means such as trust funds, Zhang Nan wants to build a castle, not an ordinary house that can be thrown out at will.
Jenny told the truth, Zhang Nan didn't blame people for not hiding their mouths - it was already very good to say that he could live to be more than 120 years old, and any more would be a monster!
Hearing the scolding of the service object, Jenny listened quietly with a professional ethics: There are many rich people who are idle and have nothing to do to scold the tax bureau, and it is not strange to see it, but on the contrary, they are idle, and scolding is healthier.
After scolding and scolding, I had to continue to ask the consultant: "If it is not in the United States, then Canada is also a ball, a virtue."
Can you give me a suggestion, in which country in Europe is it more convenient to build a castle?"
"Austria or Switzerland, there is no third option.
Austria's property tax is less than 0.18%, and the abolition of inheritance tax is very likely, which is already in the formal process, and even the current inheritance tax rate is very low in Europe, let alone compared to North America.
As for Switzerland, there is no property tax, which is very rare in Western Europe, and although there are other fees similar to property taxes that need to be paid each year, the fees are very low, basically the same as the property tax rate in Austria.
As for inheritance tax, Switzerland applies different standards, ranging from 0 to 40 per cent. But unlike North America, which is based on the value of real estate, they have a very complex set of calculations, and the high tax rate is only for very few special cases, excluding real estate and real estate.
To put it simply: if you build a super castle, a professional lawyer should be able to save you a large part of the inheritance tax in 100 years, if their laws don't change significantly......"
After saying this, Zhang Nan has a general concept of building and buying a house in Western Europe: except for Austria and Switzerland, other countries are more damn than the other!
The most ruthless are France, Germany and the United Kingdom, like the United States, in terms of taxation, especially the inheritance tax, it is simply eating people and only spitting out bones, which is more ruthless and inhumane than Zhou Peel!
Since a small farm in England is also paying taxes every year, although the real estate transaction did not buy farmland, but the nature of the house has not changed, it still belongs to the category of farms, so I can enjoy the biggest discount of British property tax, and I don't feel deep.
If this will build the castle to the UK by itself, whether the land can be approved or not will be said, and when it is completed, it is estimated that he will be so angry that he will blow up the royal palaces of the British, and by the way, he wants to make Downing Street a no-man's land!
At this point, Zhang Nan suddenly thought of a question: in his previous life, he seemed to have heard that it is extremely difficult to build a house in Switzerland, because a lot of woodland is not allowed to build a house at all!
Zhang Nan will be talking looking at the beautiful scenery of the nearby mountains and lakes, thinking of the problem of Switzerland, and drawing inferences: none of the houses in this neighborhood are new!
Switzerland is in trouble, so can you build a castle in the mountains near Salzburg?
I don't have much interest in eastern Austria, such as near Vienna, and I always feel that the castle is still in the mountains, and the plains are less flavorful.
Voiced his doubts.
"Mr. Allen, Austria and Switzerland have similar regulations on nature conservation, but there are ways!
As far as I know, there are at least three places in the two countries where castles of sufficient size can be built, and the method of reconstruction and renovation is adopted.
Those three places originally had castles, but they were damaged for various reasons, so they could be bought and rebuilt, and two of them had no special requirements for the style of the castle..."
"How do you know in such detail?"
The other party didn't have to turn to Yuntong's network to answer like a stream, the speed was too fast, Zhang Nan had to express his doubts.
"Because I had a client who had a similar need to you before serving you individually, it was a coincidence, so I knew better. And my previous client ran into Black Monday, so Mr. Allen, you know..."
"Those three places haven't been bought yet?"
"It's unlikely to be bought, people as rich as you are always in the minority in the world..."
At this point, Zhang Nan officially asked Jenny to inquire about the situation, and this Fuschl castle should also carefully explore the possibility of purchasing, and if there is the latest progress, you can call your mobile number in Austria, or a satellite phone.
There are two satellite phones, one is dedicated to this kind of business contact, and now the mobile phone signal around the world is not good, and many countries do not know what is called Big Brother!
It's getting dark, it's dinner time, Zhang Nan won't leave, and many bodyguards haven't eaten yet.
Visitors from all over the world flock to the terrace restaurant, where all languages come together.
Zhang Nan didn't understand, but Boss Guan could understand, and by the way, he brought some of the latest outside news to Zhang Nan.
I was busy all night last night, and today's newspaper is all in German, Zhang Nan didn't watch it at all--- TV is the same, I can't understand a word, it's better to watch the scenery.
"Iran had a supreme spiritual leader yesterday, and the Polish Communist Party ended its election in the parliamentary election yesterday...... And ......"
The conversation of the tourists was basically about the East, and the presence of a large number of Hungarians and East Germans in Austria.
After listening to Boss Guan's words, the corners of Zhang Nan's mouth twitched, and before he could make any comments, the mobile phone rang.
It was Jenny who called, and there was news from the land.
