Chapter 521 [Trip to Los Angeles]
It's rare to have a break, so Yang Yong and his two sons are demons. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info almost turned the entire Huaxia Manor over, to the point that the two little ones were happy to make a mess, and the laughter like silver bells was spread in this manor in the breath of spring.
The happy time is so short, unconsciously came to February 2, commonly known as the dragon raised its head. This festival will be particularly lively in the north and south of China, celebrating the Chinese dragon began to go wind and rain, but also wish this spring the wind and rain, the dealer is strong. In autumn, the five grains are abundant, so on this day, there is a custom of dragon dance in the south, and women are not allowed to use needles and threads, for fear of hurting the dragon's eyes.
The north eats pig's head meat to celebrate the important day of the second dragon raising its head in February, but it's a pity that the Yang family is just two and a half people. Don't think about the dragon and lion dance, but the customs of the north can be inherited at that time, so two days ago, Yang Yong began to prepare the raw materials for the day when the second dragon raised its head in February.
A big fat pig weighing 300 catties that was slaughtered before last year, and a pig's head is still in handy until now. After the pig's head is handed over to the kitchen to be cleaned up, it is placed in a large stuffy pot and marinated by more than a dozen flavors of Chinese herbs and various condiments. At dinner in the afternoon, the fragrant and delicious pork head meat became the star of the table.
According to Western customs, animal heads and feet are not eaten, but no one can resist the smell of pig's head meat. Since moving the first chopsticks, Anna has overturned the theory that animal heads and feet are not tasty, and eats with a mouth full of oil. In particular, the pork head meat marinated by Chinese herbs is not a little greasy, fragrant and delicious, and very bite.
After February 2, Yang Yong's leisure days were finally gone, and after bidding farewell to his family, he took Smith on a direct business plane to Los Angeles. He came to the Willis family's territory, personally visited Willis's father with gifts, and rested in the Willis family's manor for three days.
Three days later, Willis personally accompanied by the landlord Willis to inspect the real estate in Los Angeles. Although the economic crisis has not yet broken out, the signs have gradually appeared, and people with a little sense will choose to search for money to ensure their survival in the economic crisis.
And financial tycoons like Yang Yong began to short the stock market as early as last year. Shrinking the monetary base intends to make a big profit in the economic crisis, and then invest a lot of money to buy those strong stocks and prepare for investment.
So even though the financial markets seem to be calm, everyone knows that this is the calm before the storm. I don't know how dangerous this economic crisis is, I can only do my best to obey the fate of God, but fortunately, Yang Yong doesn't care about this.
The Yang family's investment in the financial market does not account for 1/3 of the family's assets. The amount of gold in his hands has reached about 60 tons, which is more than the gold reserves of ordinary small countries.
With these sixty tons of gold as the backing, the Yang family will not break its muscles and bones even if it loses again, so Yang Yong went the opposite way. came to Los Angeles to inspect the gold cave, and with the help of the local snake Willis, Los Angeles can be regarded as half of the Yang family's home field. Here, no one dared to provoke the Yang family, as well as the Willis family, the allies of the Yang family.
The first thing to look at is of course the bustling areas of Los Angeles, such as the area where Los Angeles is home to museums, St. Perrod's Bay. It is surrounded by famous museums such as the Los Angeles Maritime Museum, the Fort MacArthur Museum, and many more. It is also a well-known area rich in tourism resources, coupled with its proximity to the sea, which is more compatible with the business purpose of his family's pirate gold museum.
As for those Beverly Hills and the High Street, they are second choices, and they must be in harmony with their own museum purpose to complement each other. If you get the Pirate Gold Museum inland, it's a bit of a different flavor than reality.
And in this area where museums are located, the real prime location is frighteningly high. However, Yang Yong doesn't care about the real good real estate, even if the house price is high, it is within a reasonable range, even if it encounters an economic crisis, the house price of Central Park. Housing prices in downtown Los Angeles are not going to fall anywhere, and even if they do, they are going to rise very slowly, and they are a good commodity to keep their value.
Therefore, Yang Yong would rather buy and sell at market prices before the outbreak of the economic crisis, rather than covet some small bargains after the outbreak of the economic crisis. Besides, what does it have to do with the economic crisis of real estate when opening your own museum?
With Landlord Snake, Willis's help in finding a home was a fitting fit, and he spent the whole morning looking at the house. Yang Yong is a very strange person, and the requirements for buying a house are strange, and the following hard requirements are more difficult to do. The first point is that the purchase of a house must be an independent house structure, and those skyscrapers that are office buildings are automatically excluded.
The second point is that the floor area of the house needs to be large, and it is best to have an old building with a garden in front and back. The third point requires full ownership to avoid any trouble later, and with the renovation of Los Angeles over the years, there are fewer and fewer independent old buildings that Yang Yong likes. Even if there is a price, it is not expensive, but Yang Yong is not short of money, as long as he likes it, he will buy it.
After a morning of looking at three detached villas that were not satisfactory to the house, there was still more than an hour left for lunch. Yang Yong is going to inspect another house, and then go to the restaurant with Willis for dinner, as the saying goes, guests are as good as they come. In addition, Willis really can't stand up to Yang Yong here, and it is impossible to change Yang Yong's mind, so he can only follow Yang Yong with a wry smile and hunger.
Not to mention that after coming to the fourth place to buy a house, Yang Yong felt a light in front of him when he saw the house in front of him. The house is a free-standing four-storey masonry building with an outwardly granite foundation. The granite is covered with red bricks of water, which has a sense of vicissitudes, and the walls are covered with all kinds of creeper-like greenery. The most special thing is that it covers a very large area, which is the size of five acres.
It's the heart of downtown Los Angeles, and it's over five acres of land. It was surrounded by stone walls, and it was a large cast-iron gate more than ten meters wide, and some of the wrought iron on it was very beautiful. Most of them are myths about heaven, where angels with small wings hold various musical instruments and fly freely in the sky.
The estate has four acres of garden space surrounded by greenery, including some century-old trees. In particular, some tall palm trees are particularly beautiful, and I heard the explanation of the real estate agent who sold the house to know that the identity of the owner of the house is not simple. The first owner was the estate of the Michelle family, a famous Southern general during the American Civil War, and it has a history of more than 250 years.
It is a century-old building, and the building itself is very historical, so it is a kind of protected historical building. In fact, it is not possible for the owner of this house to change the exterior of this historic building in violation of US federal law, but you can change the appearance of the house at will, but you must ensure that the exterior of the house is not affected in any way.
