Chapter 369 Fishing at Sea

(I will take a day off today to prepare for my grandmother's three-year grave, to prepare for returning to my hometown, and to prepare the manuscripts for those days.) There is only one shift today, Lao Yang apologizes to everyone)

"Charlotte, why are you here?" Xiao Peng looked confused when he saw Charlotte.

Unexpectedly, Charlotte also looked confused: "Xiao, why are you here?"

After Xiao Peng returned from Mount Vernon, he went to his company with Pagio, signed a power of attorney, authorizing Pagio's foundation to help him take care of the fund, and after doing all this, he and Yang Meng and Yali came to the dock early the next morning, ready to go fishing.

This Alexandra is here with Xiao Peng, and in her words, it is much more fun to follow Xiao Peng than with her sister. So she directly occupied Xiao Peng's room.

He was afraid that Yali would call her sister again, and he didn't want Charlotte to say that he didn't recognize anyone when he put on his pants. It's too late to hide from Charlotte.

But he may be afraid of something, but after arriving at the dock, Xiao Peng saw that Charlotte was also on the dock, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a loose long skirt, which looked generous and good-looking.

Xiao Peng lit up the fishing rod in his hand: "You can see my equipment, is this preparing to go to sea to fish." What about you?"

"I'm waiting here for Nikki, and she said there's a yacht party today, and she told me to come over and play with it. Charlotte replied.

When Xiao Peng heard that Nikki Hilton was also coming, he looked at Yang Meng very meaningfully, and Yang Meng twisted his head to the side, pretending not to see it.

"Where's Nikki? Why didn't you see her? and let you wait here?

"His husband didn't bring seasickness medicine, so the two of them went to buy seasickness medicine. Charlotte said.

"Damn, her husband is also very hard. Do you want to go to sea to play seasick?" Xiao Peng sighed. "Why don't you go with them?"

"I've got a couple of friends coming over, and I'm waiting for them here. Charlotte replied.

"Xiao! here!" Xiao Peng tilted his head and saw that on a large yacht next to him, Pagio was waving to him from the second floor of the cabin. Xiao Peng was relieved: "Charlotte, let's get on the boat first." Ally, you stay here with your sister for a while, and we'll call you in a boat. ”

Alexandra nodded and whispered to Charlotte, Xiao Peng and the two got on the boat with their fishing gear, and Pagio was sitting there drinking champagne with a cigar in his mouth.

Xiao Peng looked at the yacht: "Dude, this is your ship? ”

Pagio shrugged: "This isn't my boat, it's my rental." ”

"Rented?" Xiao Peng was stunned, with Padgio's financial resources, do you still want to rent a yacht?

Pagio nodded: "Xiao, the first basic rule of investment is not to invest in things that are easy to depreciate, what yachts, luxury cars, houses, and women are not good targets for investment." ”

Xiao Peng lit a cigar and sat aside: "We Chinese people like to invest in real estate. ”

Pagio nodded: "I know this, your real estate industry in China, for your country's economic development has provided a great boost, although the real estate industry only accounts for 6% of your country's total GDP, but it has driven a huge industrial chain from the upstream steel, cement, midstream household appliances, furniture, downstream decorative lights, absorbing a huge number of employed people." In addition, you Chinese people like to buy houses, so the real estate industry in your country is a very good industry. ”

After hearing this, Yang Meng pouted and said: "Damn, don't mention these, now the housing prices in our country's cities are still high, and how many young people can't afford to buy a house at all." ”

Pagio asked Yang Meng rhetorically: "Yang, in fact, I don't understand, why do you Chinese people like to buy a house so much? I feel that the first thing that Chinese people think about when they go anywhere is to buy a house here." However, this house is not a commodity for young people to consume. ”

Yang Meng grinned when he heard this: "What you said is really right, now in Huaxia, many small couples, originally lived a sweet life, but in the end, they paid a down payment to buy a house, and repaid the loan every month, and now they have to live a poor life for decades, how unthinkable it is." ”

Xiao Peng shook his head: "Dude, this is also a helpless thing, now in China, many things are so realistic, who will marry you if a man doesn't have a house? Even if the woman agrees, the old man and the old mother-in-law don't agree? Besides, if you don't have a house, what should you do with your child's education? The link between the child's school registration and household registration is very fatal." Without a house, you can't even have children go to school. ”

Pagio grinned, "Your country has really done its best to develop the real estate industry. ”

Xiao Peng shrugged: "In recent years, although the development of our country's real estate industry has been good, but because it has been too high-profile, it has caused too many people's emotions, and the state has also come forward to coordinate this problem. It's not as arrogant as in previous years, and every day people say that house prices are going to fall, and the result is that there is no downward trend. After all, as you said, this is a big industrial chain, which has driven too much economic development, and it is impossible to abolish an industry because of the complaints of some ordinary people, right?"

"You Huaxia have really worked hard for economic development. Pagio sighed.

Xiao Peng shrugged: "Maybe, what about Steve? Why hasn't he come yet? Let everyone wait for him?"

"I just called and said it would be there soon, and besides, didn't we make an appointment at nine o'clock? Pagio said, "By the way, Raymond asked me to give this to you." After speaking, Padgio took out a folder from behind him, Xiao Peng opened it and saw that it was two formal car purchase procedures, one for Ford and one for Chrysler. All of them are new car purchase procedures, which Xiao Peng asked Raymond to help handle, otherwise it will be a troublesome matter whether it is to go through the customs border inspection or return to China to be listed.

Xiao Peng was quite happy when he first saw it, this Raymond's work efficiency was really fast enough, but after a closer look, he was dumbfounded: "What does this mean? The two cars add up to 1.7 million US dollars?"

Pagio listened with a smug expression: "This is what I specially asked Raymond to open, but I know that you Chinese people like to issue invoices, and they like to open the amount high! This is the news that all of our Prada stores have fed back." So when I asked Raymond to go over there to go through the formalities, I also filled in the amount for you, which is already the highest, and it can't be higher than that. Are you satisfied?"

Xiao Peng was about to cry when he heard this: "Big brother, I'm not one of those moths who eat and drink at public expense, what's the use of issuing invoices? Who will reimburse me? You have filled in 1.7 million yuan for me this time, and I will pay more than 1 million US dollars just for paying taxes! Big brother, are you playing with me?"

"Huh?" Hearing Xiao Peng's words, Pagio was also stunned: "What should I do? This is a formal procedure, and this price has been entered into the tax system of Ford and Chrysler." ”

Xiao Peng sighed: "What else can I do? Pay taxes according to the rules, I'm crying now, I go back to buy insurance and pay taxes, it's a lot higher." ”

Pagio looked apologetic, "Well, Xiao, I really didn't know it would be like this." ”

Xiao Peng shrugged: "It's okay, it's a big deal to pay more insurance premiums." But Pagio, you have to go back and tell your store that all those who want to invoice more, one counts as one, and all of them are not good things. Xiao Peng handed the folder to Yang Meng: "Steve, are they coming?" ”

Pagio looked at his watch, "It should be coming soon, he still adheres to the concept of time." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voices of men and women talking from under the boat. Pagio laughed, "Here we are." ”

Xiao Peng tilted his head and looked down, good guys, twenty or thirty men and women came. At the forefront, it was Nikki Hilton. Feelings Charlotte said yacht party and their own fishing is a matter of a while。。。。。。

Seeing Xiao Peng, Steve BisAudi stretched out his hand to greet him, there were several men beside him, Xiao Peng looked at it, and there was an old acquaintance inside!

"Hua Tian, why are you here?" Xiao Peng really didn't expect to meet Hua Tian here.

Hua Tian waved his hand and smiled: "I came to find you on a special trip!"

"How do you know I'm in New York?" Xiao Peng was stunned: "Forget it, you come up quickly, come up and talk about it!"

After everyone got on board, the yacht started directly and sailed away from the dock, the DJ on the boat played music directly, and the bartender also made a variety of cocktails, which instantly became lively.

Xiao Peng looked at the bikini girls with cocktails speechlessly: "Is this still fishing?"

Pagio also looked embarrassed: "That, isn't this more lively? ”

Xiao Peng didn't know what to say.

Hua Tian walked over: "That, Xiao Peng, can you borrow a step to speak?"

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Of course you can, go, go to the back." ”

At the back of the yacht is a platform about a meter above the sea, where you can fish and swim.

Xiao Peng pulled two sun chairs: "Hua Tian, when did you come to New York?"

Hua Tian sat down: "Just two days after I came, Xiao Peng, I came this time specifically to introduce you to a friend." ”

Xiao Peng asked, "Who? Don't tell me that you ran half the world just to introduce him to me. ”

"That's true. Hua Tiandao: "Let me introduce you, this is my alumnus and one of the investors of my horse farm, James Rothschild, one of the 'old Eaton students', this is his wife Nikki Hilton." ”

Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, and saw a man in a neat suit walking over, smiling and greeting Xiao Peng.

"Uh, James, hello, Nikki, you're okay too. Xiao Peng shook hands.

Nikki Hilton smiled: "Xiao, I really didn't know that this yacht party was for you today, if I had known that this was the case, I would have arranged this event more carefully." ”

"Nikki, do you know each other?" James was stunned.

Nikki nodded: "Tocharlotte's blessing, I really know Xiao and Yang." ”

James was a little speechless, in order to get to know Xiao Peng, he entrusted Hua Tian and asked Steve, but he didn't expect to look back and find that his wife actually knew Xiao Peng, this Nima。。。。。。

Xiao Peng asked, "James, what should you do with me?"

James nodded: "Actually, I came this time to discuss a business with you." ”
