Chapter 4: The Story of Wealth
100 million dollars!
Gu Mu almost ran out of breath.
100 million US dollars can be converted into RMB, that's 6 or 700 million! With so much money, it is really capable of spending 100 million yuan to buy a villa for him.
Provided, of course, that the old man doesn't brag.
The old man retorted to Gu Mu, and then pinched his fingers and calculated:
"After selling that piece of land, I played for a few more years, and I was really tired of it, so I thought it would be better to buy another piece of land and plant it. Didn't you have some money? I didn't want to farm in that poor part of Africa, so I went to Kangaroo Country, bought a 1,000-hectare piece of land there, and thought that I would grow grain, raise pigs, raise cattle and sheep there, and so on, but I didn't expect that after a few years, a big iron mine was found there......
Gu Mu: "......"
If this is true, this old man's luck is a little too rebellious.
But he was very skeptical that it was not true.
How can there be such lucky people in the world?
The old man continued to tell the story of his luck:
"After the news of the discovery of the iron ore came out, people always came to me to buy the land, so that I couldn't farm there at peace, I really had no choice, I had to sell the land again, sold to an iron ore company, but not all of it, I still have half of the equity in my hands. This time it was sold for 300 million ...... Well, it's also dollars, and then I went to the United States to buy a farm, became a farmer there, and joined the nationality of the United States. ”
300 million US dollars, that is, 2 billion yuan, with such financial resources, spending 100 million to buy a villa is simply trivial.
"I sold half of the equity more than ten years ago, and then the price of iron ore also rose for a while, relying on the other half of the equity, the dividends were also shared, a few years ago I felt old, too lazy to worry about those things, so I sold the other half of the equity, this time the price was a little higher, sold five or six billion. ”
Gu Mu rolled his eyes, he couldn't believe what this old man said.
But it's true, if it's all dollars, then there are billions of yuan.
Looking at this old man's rustic appearance, he doesn't look like a billionaire at all.
Looking at the hundreds of thousands of banknotes in this old man's garbage bag, he felt that there was no need to debunk it.
The old man continued: "After selling that piece of land completely, I feel that I have been wandering abroad for so many years, and I am also old, so I think that I should return to my roots, so I will return to China to see." I want to change my nationality back, but it's easy to throw out our nationality, and it's very difficult to get it back. I thought about making a little contribution to the country, so that I could get a nationality back. ”
Gu Mu couldn't help but say: "Your idea is very incorrect, foreign nationality is good, you have foreign nationality, you are a first-class person in our country, why do you have to enter the nationality of our country to be a fourth-class person?"
"Overseas Chinese like me are not first-class people, their nationality is first-class, but their bloodline is still fourth-class, and in general, even if they are a 2.5 class, such an identity, if you give up, you give up, it's not a big deal, for that mere 1.5 level, it's not worth turning your back on your motherland. ”
When the old man said this, he paused for a moment and said: "What's more, in the United States, inheritance inheritance, inheritance tax must be paid, and if the amount is more than 25 million US dollars, 50% inheritance tax must be paid, why should I hand over that money to them?"
"Dad, you're doing the right thing," Gu Mu said in admiration, "We can't turn our backs on our motherland for the sake of that mere 1.5 grades." ”
If what this old man said is true, then the 50% inheritance tax is really unacceptable.
The old man continued: "Isn't the country going to carry out the Silk Road project in the past few years? Africa is in that plan, and I think that I will stay in Africa for a few years, or I will invest some money there." So I bought a big piece of land in a country over there, and I was going to get an ecotourism spot. I don't have the technology, I don't have the culture, and I can't do anything else, so I made a place for the workers in our country to develop Africa, and within two years of buying that piece of land, I haven't found a team to help with the development, and I was discovered, and there is oil ......."
“…………”
Gu Mu was completely speechless.
- Do you want to be so exaggerated?
- Not to mention that no one believes this in reality, even if it is put into the person who wrote the novel, no one will believe it! Even the greatest writer in the world could not have conceived such an absurd plot.
It's okay to walk shit luck once, how can you take shit luck every time?
"Oil was found on that piece of land, and there is no way, and there is no way to engage in tourism development, so I wondered if our country is not short of oil? So I sold that piece of land to our country's oil company at a price 10 percent lower than the market price, and this time it was sold for 20 or 300 million yuan, and then I also got the nationality of our country, so I came back. ”
After the old man said these things, his face showed pain again: "After I came back, I remembered the events of the year, so I inquired about the news of your mother and son, and later learned that your mother had died of illness at a young age, and you didn't know where to go." It took more than half a year to find out that you were in this place, so I came looking for it. Child, I'm really sorry for your mother and son!"
"What's that...... Father...... Is everything you say true?"
Gu Mu asked cautiously.
If it is true, he is developed.
Even if there is only a tenth, or even one thousandth, of the truth, he is developed.
Now as described by this old man, he now has at least one or two hundred billion yuan of belongings, even if it is one thousandth, it is one or two million, which is enough for him to live this life in style.
"Of course it's true. The old man said to him with certainty, "If you don't believe me, we can do a paternity test." ”
"No, no, Dad, listen to me, I didn't mean that, I can fully believe that you are my father, we don't need to do a paternity test to prove our relationship," Gu Mu hurriedly said, "I'm asking if the deeds you said are true? As for whether you are my father, as soon as I saw your eyes, I was already determined, you are my father, and I can't kiss my father anymore!"
What are you kidding about doing a paternity test?
Wouldn't it be embarrassing if it was found out that they were not biological father and son?
Isn't the hundreds of thousands of dollars in hand going to fly away?
How many times does he have to deliver takeouts to earn enough hundreds of thousands of dollars in this garbage bag?
This kind of risky thing, he shouldn't do it.
