Verse 31: Go out to New York again
Kevin is obsessed with the overhead balloon show, and wants to move to the event here because of the prankster effect. In keeping with the holiday theme, Kevin plans to swap the tap water in the balls for cheap wine.
Steve appreciates this, and the festival should have a festive spirit, and naturally the music is indispensable, and he wants to invite his old friend band to perform at the castle winery. The Old Friends Band is a local band, and the average age of the musicians is over fifty. Street performers in Napa County all year round, and it doesn't cost much to invite them over.
The program was decided, and everyone divided their labor to prepare for the upcoming festival.
'Treasure Hunt in Pakka', the biggest event of the festival.
13,000 acres is equivalent to 52 square kilometers, which is about the size of Ye Mo's hometown of Chongshan Town. The Vaca Mountains are rocky and have complex terrain. Ye Mo is responsible for the 'Baige Treasure Hunt' activity, first of all, making a map to mark out danger areas, landscape areas, camping areas, etc. Contact a notary company to make a map of the treasure and place the treasure......
The architecture, environment, and atmosphere of Park Ge Winery look too formal. There should be flowers, cute mascots, and make Bai Ge look more festive. Steve set up the venue and contacted the guest list for the opening ceremony.
Kevin is in charge of business.
Unsurprisingly, the event should attract a lot of tourists. Whether or not he can recover the cost through the event depends on Kevin's ability.
After the division of labor, Kevin and Steve each leave.
Ye Mo drank the remaining red wine in the cup and began to work.
It's easy to map, but it's a matter of time to mark danger zones and landscape areas.
"Hey, Mr. Harry, are you free now?" Ye Mo took out the phone and called the account manager of Citibank.
"Of course I'm free. It's been a long time since I've been in touch, how are you doing? Harry smiled and said, "I guess you must have called me because of Ms. Xia Wei's lawsuit." β
βNOγ I have other troubles to ask you for. My estate has a big event for the upcoming festival......"
βOKγ I'll send someone to assist you. By the way, I would like to remind you that we represented Ms. Xia Wei in her lawsuit. According to the previous retention agreement, Ms. Xia Wei's attorney's fees will be paid by you in advance......"
"Yes. I've said something like that. β
"Okay. Your account balance will soon run out of money. β
βwhatοΌβ Ye Mo almost jumped to his feet.
Ye Mo hurriedly logged in to the Citibank client and looked at his account expenditure. Every expenditure is recorded on it.
In half a month, it cost him 230,000 yuan to file a lawsuit against Xia Wei.
"U.S. attorney fees are notoriously expensive in the world, especially when it comes to huge compensation lawsuits. Of course, the lawyer's fees you paid for Ms. Xia Wei will be repaid in full after the lawsuit is won. I just want to remind you that the Citi Black Card can theoretically be 'unlimited', but the overdrawn portion will be repaid with high interest. β
βOKγ I would like to ask, how much more attorney fees will be next? What are your chances of winning this lawsuit? β
"In order to have a 100% chance of success, we invited a well-known Cape Town law firm to fight this case for Ms. Xia Wei. If nothing else, the lawsuit will be over within a week......"
Hanging up the phone, the two girls came out of the gym.
"Brother, teach us something else. Turning over and over for an action, boring to death. β
Ye Mo was very lazy and said, "Thousands of tall buildings rise from the ground." If you want to work hard, you must lay a good foundation. Okay, you guys keep practicing, I'm going to go out. It may not be back until very late. β
"Where are you going? We're going too. I don't want to stay at home anymore, I'm bored to death. Ye Zi said.
Ye Mo glanced at Yiyang's girl, and saw that she was staring at herself, obviously not wanting to stay at home anymore: "Okay, hurry up and pack two clothes, I'm going to New York." β
"New York?"
"Hmm. Let's talk about something in the past. If you're together, you'll be in New York for two more days. It's a global shopping paradise. β
"YES, LONG LIVE. Dude, we love you. Ye Zi excitedly sighed on Ye Mo's face.
New York, the largest city in the United States.
After getting off the plane, I still rented a car from a car rental company near the airport. followed Ye Mo to call the boss of Sotheby's Auction Company and make an appointment.
"Brother, do you still have friends in New York?"
"Business friends." Ye Mo shrugged, drove the two girls to the Hilton Hotel in Manhattan, and arranged a room for them: "I have some business to discuss, you wait for me in the hotel, don't run around." β
"Okay. You come back early, I still want to go around. β
Seeing Harry again, the two hugged each other.
"My dear Ye, what treasures do you need to identify or auction this time?" In the company, Harry poured Ye Mo a glass of champagne and said with a smile.
Ye Mo took out the three pocket watches and said, "I'm short of money, I want to sell them." β
βOKγ Just like last time, we'll help you sell for a very high price. β
"I want to take things to auction in Hong Kong. The last time I was ignorant, I remembered that I was Chinese and could completely avoid the high personal income tax in the United States. β
"Oh, sorry. This was our mistake and should have been warned of earlier. "As the owner of one of the most successful auction houses in the world, how could Harry not be aware of these things. Without reminding, the biggest possibility is that he wants to squeeze the greatest benefit from Ye Mo.
And, he succeeded.
Harry acted as an intermediary and introduced Leafmo to his younger brother Harry, who became one of Harry's big clients. After Harry's introduction, Ye Mo bought Park Ge Winery.
Hong Kong is a duty-free port and imposes a very small transaction tax on the sale and purchase of art, usually no more than 3% of the auction items. The U.S. green card only enjoys the treatment of a U.S. citizen, Ye Mo is still Chinese, and the U.S. tax bureau has no right to collect his personal income outside the United States.
The most expensive of the three pocket watches is the 'red rose', which is estimated at 31 million, and the other two are estimated to be between 2 million and 5 million, US dollars.
After re-appraisal, after confirming that the three pocket watches were not boring, they signed the contract under the witness of the lawyer. Ye Mo also received a 30 percent advance payment from Harry, $11 million.
The advance payment is directly transferred by the auction house from abroad to Ye Mo's bank account in China.
Times Square, the busiest neighborhood in Manhattan, New York, is known as the crossroads of the world.
Back at the hotel, Ye Mo took the two girls out to play. There are more than 40 shopping malls in the vicinity of The Times, and the bustling shopping malls are home to most of the world's luxury goods.
Obviously, one night can only be a short time.
Spent three days in New York. For three days, the two girls spent most of their time shopping near Times Square. If it weren't for the fact that the two girls were really shy, Ye Mo probably wouldn't be able to pull them away.
