Chapter 420: Ranch Purchase
After boasting like a princess selling melons, Kent finally smiled and said, "Anyway, you need to believe that our ranch is the best in the country, and you will not regret it, and you will definitely like it." ”
Although this best may be a bit overblown, it does not prevent Padrich from liking, he nodded and said: "Listening to Mr. Kent say this, I really want to go and see it, to be honest, I have been so decadent these days, after coming out of prison, except for wandering or wandering, it is like a lonely ghost who has lost his home!" ”
Gossi smiled and said: "Lonely ghosts can also find a sense of home, if you don't mind, you can go to the ranch today, there is a very nice cowboy camp where you can live very comfortably, and very friendly colleagues who will make you feel at home." By the way, we haven't bought the helicopter yet, but soon, maybe you can see the helicopter being sent to the ranch as early as tomorrow, and then it will be yours, so cherish it. However, I may have to work with my lawyer and accountant to set up the company, and it may be delayed for a day or two, but you can rest assured, I will not let you down. ”
Padrick nodded and said, "It may not work today, I rented a room in Bozeman, I'm afraid I have to deal with my own personal affairs first, and I should be able to go over tomorrow." ”
"Okay, that's fine, if you need us to have someone come and pick it up, just make a call, this is my business card, if you have any difficulties, just look for me." Gossi spoke, then took a beautiful business card out of his pocket and handed it over.
"No problem." Padridge looked in a good mood.
"Then Walt, Kent and I will go first, we still have some things to buy, so we won't waste time here. The other people that the ranch needs will depend on your introduction, don't forget. ”
"Don't worry, I can't forget it."
After leaving the agency, Gaucy and Kent went to Bozeman's second-hand market to visit.
Speaking of the second-hand market in the United States. It was really very developed, and you could buy almost anything.
In China, unless they really "know the roots", few parents let their children use other children's "second-hand" clothes or "second-hand" toys. But in the second-hand market abroad, children's products are one of the most popular items. In the second-hand market, you can not only find bargains, but also make good use of second-hand items for charity, and in the United States, donations and gifts can also be deductible, all of which promote the prosperity and development of foreign second-hand markets.
The United States is a civilian society, and most people do not buy people by clothes, which also promotes the development of "second-hand stores". Furthermore. In the United States, donations and gifts in kind can be tax deductible, which also promotes the prosperity of second-hand stores.
In the United States, there are many large and wide range of second-hand stores that accept donations of various items such as furniture, appliances, dresses, children's clothing and toys, and they also buy some high-value household goods, but the purchase price is generally low. When it comes to collecting donations or buying second-hand goods, stores don't have to do everything. Instead, receive selectively. Recycling clothes, toys, furniture, home appliances and other best-selling items are basically more than eighty or ninety percent new, and they also have to go through hygiene inspections.
Among the many second-hand stores, children's products are one of the most popular items. Because a lot of children's products are basically only used once or twice. Some baby costumes may be small before they even have time to be worn. Therefore, people love to go to such stores to shop for goods. Most of these second-hand items sell for only three to five dollars, and no more than $10 at most. The reason why parents feel comfortable wearing and using second-hand items for their children is mainly because larger second-hand stores have very clear rules on recycled old items. In most stores. All are equipped with free HIV testing equipment. Some stores also have iPads that customers can use to follow the steps to check. After receiving the old clothes, they have to disinfect them again.
Furthermore. Many Americans host "yard trades" in their yards, leaving things they don't use outside for passers-by to buy. Some non-profit organizations will give each family some scrap bags at a fixed time, so that people can leave the things they want to donate at the door, and someone will come to pick them up regularly, and at the same time, they will issue a tax credit form, which needs to be filled out by the residents themselves.
Of course, this time there will be no shortage of second-hand machinery that they need in Gaoxi.
In the United States, the second-hand market is really developed, not only is it cheap, but it is not necessarily worse than new. With Kent as an expert, the two of them went to several second-hand markets and bought some of the machinery needed for the ranch, including tractors, trucks, pickup trucks, etc., some of which were ninety percent new, but the prices were much cheaper.
There were also some people who took the building materials from their ranches to sell on the second-hand market, and Gao Xi found that these materials were still very useful and much cheaper than those new materials, so he discussed them with Kent and simply bought them all.
Although modern cattle sheds need to be built by professionals, some cheap buildings can be built on their own, including the fence of the pasture, which has always been repaired and organized by Kent, which requires materials.
After paying the money, Gao Xi himself was surprised, and bought a lot of things, but the money spent was very small, and anyone who was a second-hand dealer who sold second-hand goods from the United States to China really didn't know what he would earn.
Someone will be responsible for sending things to the ranch, and Gao Xi doesn't have to worry about it, but it's still early to see the sky, so Gao Xi suggested going to the helicopter 4S shop with Kent to go around, find out first, if you can, just buy a helicopter and go back, anyway, now you have spare money on hand.
First, the ranch really needs such a helicopter, and secondly, Gao Xi also wants to try the feeling of flying a plane, and in the future, he will learn from Pandaric on his own ranch, which is also very good.
Kent listened to it and thought about it, so he took Gao Xi to the helicopter 4S shop for a walk, but it was a bit far, and it turned out to be Helena, and Bozeman didn't have it at all.
Gaucy prefers a small helicopter called the R-22 to the big guys, and a funny name called Beta.
That's the name of one of Gausse's two favorite little mice when he was a child, "Shuck and Beta" is the childhood of many post-80s.
"Robinson Helicopters has always been known for its high performance, reliability and value for money. Robinson Helicopter is mainly engaged in the design and production of R22 and R44 helicopters. Superior performance and safety, as well as an affordable price, have made the single-engine, two-seater R22 the world's most popular light helicopter for nearly two decades. To date, more than 3,600 R22 helicopters have been delivered to more than 60 countries around the world. ”
The clerk of the 4S store was very enthusiastic, and when he saw that Gao Xi was interested in Beta, he praised the helicopter as if it were a flower.
"The R22 developed by Robinson Helicopters holds every performance record in the same weight class, including speed, altitude and distance. And the latest Robinson R22 Beta II still has the most affordable price and lowest operating costs in the aircraft industry. If you really want to buy it, I recommend buying the Beta II, which not only has better performance, but is also inexpensive. ”
In the face of the aggressive momentum of the clerk, Gao Xi suddenly thought of what he looked like when he bought a car for the first time, but he was knocked down by this enthusiasm, and he didn't think much about it, so he bought a car in a daze, and then he always felt all kinds of bad.
After thinking about it, he told the clerk that he needed to discuss it with Kent, so he stepped aside, after all, he didn't know much about helicopters, and he actually came here today to take a look, first understand it, and then buy it if possible, so it is necessary to discuss with Kent.
To his dismay, Kent wasn't familiar with the helicopter, he was just a traditional cowboy, and it would be really embarrassing for him to ask him about the helicopter.
"Why don't you give Padrick a call and ask, he's the expert." Kent came up with an idea.
"You see I'm really confused, I didn't expect such a helper to be here."
Gao Xi quickly took out his mobile phone and called Pan Ditch and asked about the situation of the plane in detail, and finally Pan Ditch concluded that this plane could be bought, because it was really a very good aircraft in terms of engine, maintenance and other aspects.
Although what Gao Xi admires most is the large transport helicopter in the United States, but that is not a civilian one, and it will definitely not be able to get his hands on it, besides, he uses the helicopter to spray the pasture with the spring of life and magic spring, and then it is used to find and chase the herd of cattle and sheep, which is not only fuel-intensive, but also impractical.
After discussing, Gao Xi simply took out the check book, and then wrote the check, of course, the 4S store will send the plane directly to the ranch.
Sometimes Gao Xi thinks that this kind of check transaction in the United States is actually quite convenient, and of course it has its own advantages with online trading.
After completing the formalities, Gaucy and Kent hurried back, but before they reached Bozeman, it was already dark.
By the time they got back to the pasture, it was already dark.
So Gao Xi didn't cook at all, but used to eat with the cowboys, eating a more convenient barbecue, and then fruit salad.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gao Xi planned to have a small meeting, and said while eating: "Everyone has been on the Yellowstone Ranch for a long time, and we are like relatives between us, probably you also learned from Kent and Severn, I want to make our ranch bigger, so it may be a little busy in the future, but after all the equipment is ready, it should be easy, and there are professionals in equipment maintenance and use, so what should you do and what you should do, the workload will not increase in the future."
