Back at the hotel, Xiao Yifei gathered the team before dinner:

"It's Thanksgiving, and I'm sorry that everyone has to work on Thanksgiving, and it's also a trip away from home to work. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:strawberry,.cmxsw] In the evening, I asked the hotel to prepare a meal for you, hoping to make up for your soul a little, everyone rest assured, I have a treat, you can eat openly, rest assured. ”

Thanksgiving is a unique holiday in the United States and Canada, and there is no such thing as Thanksgiving in Europe and Asia. Even though only these two countries have ever been, and they are still next to each other, their Thanksgiving times are not the same. Thanksgiving in Canada falls on the 2nd Monday in October, while Thanksgiving in the United States falls on the 4th Thursday in November. Because the United States is big, many people know about this Thanksgiving in the United States.

The origin of Thanksgiving officially announced by the United States is that when British immigrants first arrived on the American continent, they were hit by various blows such as disease, food, and winter, and the population dropped rapidly to 50 people, and they were on the verge of annihilation. Many now question this Thanksgiving, and some say it was to celebrate the massacre of the Indian Pecots in the Connecticut Valley.

Such a heavy topic is more than 200 years ago, Xiao Yifei doesn't want to be a party, he is not interested in this thing. The second day of Thanksgiving, which he is interested in, is the festival of the chopping party, and now it has added the feast of online merchants, the famous Black Friday.

He didn't even have an appointment with Tina today, just to enjoy this crazy Black Friday.

There is a saying that what should come does not come, this sentence may not be right, but the next sentence is definitely true, and what should not come is coming.

When he returned to 704 after dinner to recuperate, he found a car parked in the driveway, blocking his Ferrari's path. Look again, dizzy, isn't this the Lotus sports car? Plus the lights are on in the house, so you don't have to think about it. This is Concubine Yue has arrived.

Why was Concubine Yue able to enter the house, because Xiao Yifei gave her the key to 704 by himself.

Why give her the key? Because Xiao Yifei asked Concubine Yue to hand over the key to the fat intermediary Grace.

So why give the key to Grace? This goes back to a conversation with Concubine Yue a few months ago, when he just bought Danville's house.

Concubine Yue knew that Xiao Yifei's housing usage rate in Danwei was not high. So he specially told him to be careful of the squatters.

There is a social phenomenon in foreign countries called house squatting. To put it simply, a house is empty, so a homeless person or someone else runs in and lives in it. And that's not even counting if you live for a certain period of time. You can also apply to the court to award it to you.

Squatters originated in Britain after World War II. As we all know, Britain was badly bombed by Germany in World War II, with serious damage to houses and many people left homeless. However, the country was slaughtered by the United States several times because of the war, and Germany was unable to pay so many war reparations for a while, so Britain's reconstruction work was progressing very slowly. In 1946, a group of homeless retired soldiers in Britain occupied some properties in central London, demanding housing and vacant properties.

Originally, this kind of behavior must have violated the property law, but it is different when politicians stir up such a stir in the middle. What is most important to these elected politicians? Ballots, of course. Anyway, these properties are not their own, so they are generous to others, and I agree with you to take them, and since you have the benefits, then you should choose me. So the new law was born, as long as you lived in it for 10 years, the house was yours.

This is the occupancy. Later, this method became popular in Europe, which was badly damaged by World War II. A proper noun was also born, called squattersright.

Squatters are also found in the United States, and California is also the hardest hit area. Why, because the climate in California is so good in winter. Many wealthy people have bought houses here to spend the winter. When they left after the winter, the squatters came, and they occupied the magpie's nest and doves, as if they were masters. Some of these people are truly homeless homeless people. Some are illegal immigrants, while others are purely mixed. These people made the house a mess and a miasma. So many times the neighbors called the police, and the police came to drive them away.

But now these guys have learned to be smart, they have learned to forge rental contracts, and wait for the police to come. The fake rental contract was shown to the police, and the police could not verify the authenticity of the contract for a while, so they had to leave and let these guys occupy it.

For California squagglers, it is generally impossible to obtain ownership of a home through the courts. Because California law requires the first squatter to live in the house for 5 consecutive years, this is obviously half the 10 years in the UK. Second, property tax must be paid within these 5 years. First, the squatter may not have the money to pay property taxes, and second, if the owner of the house has not paid taxes for five years, it is estimated that the house will have been seized by the IRS long ago.

Xiao Yifei asked at the time:

"What to do if you encounter a squatter?"

Concubine Yue replied to him:

"When you encounter a squatter, remember that you can't use force, it's against the law. All you need to do is first give him a written document telling him that he is an intruder. This is important because the court is particular about evidence, and only documentary evidence is the best protection for itself. ”

"The second is to call the police and have the police expel him. Then you change the locks and garage codes right away. But remember, you have to make an appointment with him to move his things. You can also throw things at the door and wait for him to pick them up himself, but you don't sell them, otherwise it's theft. ”

Xiao Yifei asked puzzledly:

"And what if I leave him and come again?"

"Only with the first eviction and he comes, you can apply to the court for a restraining order, if he is close to your house, he is breaking the law, you call the police directly, and the police will arrest him."

It was precisely knowing that there was such a house occupier, Xiao Yifei gave Danwei's house key to Concubine Yue at that time, and asked her to help herself take a look when she passed by here in her free time. Similarly, after buying the number 704, he was ready to give Grace a key so that he could come and see if there were any intruders or squatters from time to time. Obviously, Concubine Yue hasn't given the key to Grace yet. This sister earns so much commission, and it shouldn't be bad to live in a hotel, but she came to live with Xiao Yifei here, it's too picky.

Seeing Xiao Yifei push the door in, Concubine Yue was taken aback:

"Hey, why are you in Los Angeles?"

Xiao Yifei is very depressed, this is my house. I should ask you:

"Why didn't you go home to spend Thanksgiving with your parents?"

Concubine Yue flew over with an eye dart:

"My parents are in the country."

"Then why don't you take them over?"

"They said they weren't used to it, and I wasn't as rich as you, so they came to drink the northwest wind with me?"

"Why haven't you been back to San Francisco yet?"

"Then why are you in Los Angeles again?"

"I'm here to talk about business. What about you? ”

"I'm thinking about life."

Xiao Yifei vomited blood. Seeing his constipation-like expression, Concubine Yue was happy:

"Okay, I'm not going to tease you. Don't you still have a lot of money, I'll find you a good investment channel. ”

"What to invest in?"

"Real estate. Let me tell you, in the past few days, I have driven all the cities in Southern California once, and I found that this housing rental market is promising. ”

Then she pulled out a map of Southern California. began to peddle her plans. In fact, even if Xiao Yifei paid money, he immediately bought a large number of houses. Of course, she mainly aimed at the Chinese market, so Xiao Yifei hoarded a large number of houses in places with a large number of Chinese, such as Arcadia, Rourumi, Rowland Heights and other places in the east of Los Angeles, Irvine in the southeast of Los Angeles, and several cities near San Diego, and then set up an intermediary office to manage these houses. and so on in the future that house prices will rise. You can choose to hold it or sell it.

Looking at her excitedly introducing city by city on the map, Xiao Yifei sighed:

"You've got a lot of places to run this lap."

Another eye dart:

"What, I'm sorry for your car rental fee, can't I pay it myself?"

"That's not true, it's just that it won't take nearly 20 years to pay for itself by rent."

"You can resell it when the time comes."

Xiao Yifei thought about it,

"It's a pity, my money is basically used now."

"What do you do?"

Xiao Yifei thought about it again before telling her:

"I also just got the news not long ago, Lei Shidong is going to sell a batch of shares, and I took out my wife's book. I took out some money in Phu Quoc and prepared to eat him. ”

Concubine Yue's eyes were as big as a copper bell:

"Lei Shidong? That Lei Shidong? ”

"Well, it's that Lei Shidong."

"How much is this share?"

"Many, worth more than 300 million."

Concubine Yue slapped Xiao Yifei on the shoulder. Almost took a picture of him on the map.

"Oh, you're so rich."

Xiao Yifei rubbed his shoulders:

"Didn't I tell you, for the sake of these stocks, I have to sell all the Apple stocks I bought before, and I have to find a loan from Wells Fargo to make it up."

"Do you still have Apple stock? Think about it, how do I think Apple stock is better than CBS stock? ”

"Honestly. I also think maybe Apple's stock is more profitable. But I took this opportunity to take out some A shares with voting rights from Lei Shidong. ”

Concubine Yue slapped her again, but Xiao Yifei dodged this time.

"You're such a great kid, you must have paid a lot."

Xiao Yifei smirked:

"Hehe, we're only negotiating now, but we're definitely not far from being on the board."

Concubine Yue rolled her eyes and gave Xiao Yifei a thumbs up:

"Be ambitious, I wish you to enter the board of directors as soon as possible, and it is best to snatch CBS over and fight for us Chinese."

"Lend you good words."

However, the little woman has a question, and I hope that the future media tycoon Mr. Xiao can answer it with a face.

Xiao Yifei showed momentum:

"Yes, you say."

"You can also see that Apple stock should make money, right?"

"Nonsense, I wouldn't have bought it if it didn't make money."

"Then why are you selling now?"

"Don't you want to make money for Lei Shidong?"

"If you can take out a loan, why don't you use this batch of Apple shares as collateral? Then you can enjoy the profits of Apple's stock price rise, and you can afford to buy CBS shares. ”

Xiao Yifei was dumbfounded.

"This, this."

Xiao Yifei felt that it seemed to be a good thing to do this. Anyway, Xiao Yifei is very confident in the few stocks in his hands, and feels that they can definitely outperform the interest on bank loans.

For example, Apple, in the just-released third quarter quarterly report, other mobile phone businesses such as Nokia shrank across the board, but it has soared in the smartphone market, actually sold 5.2 million units, an increase of 6 times over the same period, it is conceivable that those feature phone manufacturers, it is not so easy to change production, and it is not possible to launch products to compete immediately, so Apple's market will continue to expand. Moreover, Sosby and CBS have risen several times from the lowest point in March, and Apple has only doubled, and there is still a lot of room for growth in the future, so it is indeed a pity to sell its shares at this time.

Even if you can't fully lend 100 million to mortgage Apple, it's a big deal to add others. (To be continued.) )xh118
