Chapter 483: The Birth of an Alternative Island Country

The lights are on.

The fishing boat BB left.

The sailors on the Big Penguin sent a few fish that had been bled to cold storage for storage.

Han Xuan asked people to cut a piece of more than 20 kilograms of fish loin from the back of the big marlin, which is the strongest part of its body, suitable for charcoal grilling.

Walk back to the villa located on the peninsula.

Fat Ding ran quickly to greet Han Xuan, and halfway saw the big octopus that kept crawling out in the bucket that George was carrying, and he was so frightened that he jumped back quickly, opening his cute big eyes.

Meowed twice, as if questioning Han Xuan, wouldn't he be planning to raise this ugly guy?

When I learned that it was just food, I immediately became interested in it, and saliva brewed in my mouth

McDull solved the physiological problem on the spot, but then Pooh didn't pay attention and stepped on it!

After running to the beach and taking a shower inside and out, he was holding McDull down at the moment, and the bear's paw slapped it on the buttocks.

Every time I shoot, I have to stop roaring twice, and I look quite angry!

Poor McDull couldn't break free, and Ang, Ang kept screaming, and when he saw his master come back, tears rolled in his eyes.

Pooh sniffed, it smelled a smell of food in the air, and immediately let go of McDull, shaking his body full of grease, and smiling on his face......

The people in black not far away, seeing its wild rush towards the boy, put their hands on their waists, and the Erna butler hurriedly explained a few words, and they relaxed.

Han Xuan saw three Mercedes-Benz S600 sedans flying the Maldivian flag parked in front of his house.

The license plate is from San Francisco, it should be a temporary rental car, and those men in black are naturally bodyguards.

The smaller the country, the more it likes to show off, which is understandable about the image of a country.

Remembering that yesterday he and the people from the Maldives embassy agreed to discuss the purchase of the island this afternoon, Han Xuan patted his head in annoyance and forgot about it.

Seeing that my grandfather's Bentley was also there, I walked into the villa quickly, and suddenly released the pigeons of two people, and the smile on my face became brighter.

I have no choice but to beg for forgiveness.

On the couch in the living room, Wai Cheng was talking to a short, dark-skinned middle-aged man.

Han Xuan smiled and asked, "It's Mr. Marta, right?"

I'm sorry, but I was dragged by a bluefin tuna and couldn't walk away, so it took me five hours to catch it. ”

"It doesn't matter, it's raining in Washington, and my plane is delayed, and it hasn't been long since I arrived. "Marta is fluent in English and has probably been in the United States for a long time.

"Please have dinner here in the evening, I brought back a big marlin meat.

When you were in the Maldives, you locals loved this, along with octopus.

I'm going to take a shower first, I smell fishy, sorry. ”

"I don't have anything to do at night, I'm not in a hurry, please feel free to ......"

End of politeness.

Han Xuan came to the second floor, his father seemed to have just gotten up, wearing pajamas and getting a cup of coffee, the top of the nightcap like a Santa hat, the ball hanging obliquely behind his head, standing by the window and looking at the sea view.

Han Xuan asked him with a smile: "What, the game is over?"

"No, I did the sixth task.

I had a headache, and when I was young, I didn't sleep for a year, but now I can't.

I was called up by your grandfather, and this time it's a shame. ”

Han Qianshan turned his head, the hair on his head was messy, and after speaking, he took a sip of the coffee cup and sighed.

"You just blow it, it's still a year, and you'll become a panda in one night.

Daddy, hurry up and wash and change your clothes, there are guests coming. ”

"Who?"

"The people from the Maldives embassy, they still have some islands left to sell, and I think it will appreciate in value in the future, so I want to buy them.

And a friend of mine is coming, the one you met at Brown University, Rami Reez. ”

"Well, then I'll go and have someone prepare dinner......"

Half an hour passed.

After taking a simple shower and drying his hair, Han Xuan looked in the mirror and went downstairs in a casual autumn dress.

I saw my grandfather and Marta standing in front of the oil painting of the School of Athens and asked him, "Is it Leonardo da Vinci's painting?"

"At least I don't see anything wrong, it's a painting with no historical records.

When I left, I showed it to my friends in the collecting world, and there was a man who had Leonardo da Vinci's "Salvator Mundi" in his hand, and he specialized in all of Leonardo da Vinci's oil paintings, and he knew more than I did. ”

Han Xuan noticed that his grandfather had a smile on his face, and said happily: "It seems that I am going to wrap a red envelope for Professor Gordon, who helped me identify."

Mr. Marta, did your president agree to what was discussed yesterday?"

Everything else was fine, but he wanted to settle the money for the islands over three years.

But if you insist on it for five years, I don't think it's a big problem, and the contract has been drawn up, just waiting for you to sign it.

Mr. President has given me the authority to sign a contract with you in place of the Republic of Maldives, and you can see what else is wrong. ”

With that, Marta took a document out of her bag.

Glancing at the painting on the table, the price of this painting was equivalent to the sixteen best islands in his country, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

The money of this family in front of him can even buy the entire Maldives

Han Xuan read it first, and then handed the thick document to his grandfather.

Guo Muzhou looked at the additional conditions for buying islands for a while, and there were no perverted treaties like buying islands in the United States, and the islands could not be developed if they had protected animals.

When he saw the tax collection, he raised his head and said: "The corporate income tax is 30% of the profit, which is too high."

The upfront investment is huge, and the maintenance expenses in the future are not small, so it will take us many years to pay for itself.

We can't agree to take such a large sum of money without investing anything.

Even the world's most stringent tax policy does not impose such a high tax every year, which is higher than the inheritance tax in the United States. ”

Marta was embarrassed for a while, he also knew that this was unreasonable, and said: "Those people who bought the island before have the same policy. ”

"They are for personal use, and business is only a small part of the business, which cannot stimulate tourism in the Maldives," Han Xuan said.

I'm different, I'm going to make them resort islands that attract tourists, it's different.

I can't make much money in the first place, and if I charge such a high tax, I will have no profit, and when I earn back the money for construction, I will have to invest in hotel decoration and other aspects.

Maybe the number of tourists will decrease in the off-season, and it will lose money. ”

Guo Muzhou will never object to this kind of purchase of freehold land.

Especially on such beautiful islands, the rich have always regarded them as a kind of fixed asset investment.

"Yes, maybe we need to think about it again," he said. ”

As soon as Marta heard this, she was anxious, if the government had money, it would definitely develop it by itself, but the problem was that there was no money!

The news of the purchase of the island has spread to the country, and the president has even said that it will create jobs for thousands of people.

This is equivalent to solving the livelihood problem of thousands of families at once, so that more than 5,000 people in the Maldives can solve the problem of food and clothing.

If it is yellow, it is estimated that the president will be changed tomorrow.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

"A little more than in the United States, 9% is about ......"

Han Xuanshi opened his mouth, but he didn't expect Marta to pick up the phone and go out, and came in a few minutes later and said that the president agreed!

Guo Muzhou and Han Xuan were stunned on the spot, they really couldn't laugh or cry about this kind of joke-like law of a small country.

In addition, several articles were amended, and Marta agreed to the Maldivian government's control over the islands in terms of security, economy, and transportation.

Looking at the revised contract, Han Xuan felt that something was wrong.

Being able to arrange the police independently, to be able to open a bank, to make laws and customs on the island, how is this the same as a small independent country (to be continued). )
