Driving on Highway 1, the scenery was beautiful all the way, Xiao Yifei turned a corner and came to another outlets.

"Camarillo also has a designer discount store and a lower GST."

After two hours of shopping, the two ladies not only spent the thousand dollars that those exhibitionists had accompanied, but also spent a lot more. Li Qinglin's heart is dripping blood, Xiao Yifei likes it here, it covers a large area, there are few people, and the parking lot is unusually wide, he can completely drive the car from one store to another.

Embark on Highway 101 again, one side is the mountain and the other side is the sea, the highway is sandwiched in the middle, the mountains are beautiful, the sea scenery is spectacular, the sunshine, the beach, the green trees, the mountains, with the car to form a flowing picture.

They drove slowly this way, and Xiao Yifei planned to spend 2 days on this No. 1 highway, walking and playing to San Francisco. Just left the sea and drilled into the canyon not far away. Li Qinglin shouted, "Get aside, get aside." ”

Xiao Yifei parked the car and asked angrily:

"What for?"

"Take Route 1, not 101."

Xiao Yifei looked at the map and found that there was not much difference between the two roads, except that Highway 1 was more remote, and the last two roads had to go to the accommodation booked tonight: Grand Arroyo. So as soon as he hit the steering wheel, he turned and got off the 101 highway.

The car drove forward again, no matter how Xiao Yifei inquired, Li Qinglin just didn't say why he took Highway 1. After the car passed Lombok, he said:

"Highway 1 goes past Vandenberg Air Force Base, we can't get in, we can take a look outside."

The angry Xiao Yifei almost turned around.

Vandenberg Air Force Base is one of the famous space launch sites in the United States, where the main purpose is to test and launch intercontinental missiles, as well as the launch of polar orbit satellites.

Originally, he would be the second and first space shuttle launch site on the West Coast after the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, but when the Challenger space shuttle launch failed, the adjustment plan canceled his mission and only served as a backup landing site.

However, there are very few launch missions here, only a few times a year, do you want to see the rocket launch here?

Just drove to the periphery of Vandenberg, 4 kilometers ahead of which was a straight and flat road, at this time, a puff of white smoke rose in front of him, getting higher and higher, Xiao Yifei immediately stopped and pulled over, and jumped out of the car with a camera. Li Qinglin also immediately got out of the car and started taking pictures.

The white smoke rises higher and higher, drawing a gray-white trail under the blue sky. When they were completely out of sight, the two stopped pressing the shutter.

Xiao Yifei stared at Li Qinglin strangely:

"You already knew that there was another mission today?"

"I know a."

"Then why did you choose Route 1?"

"I just want to see if the base is good, who knows if it happened to hit a launch mission."

"Yes, you kid is lucky, you have such a small chance of being bumped into."

"That's, who am I, Invincible Lucky Star."

Xu Shuyun hit him:

"And you want to thank us, if we don't go shopping at the Camarillo or go shopping, can you see?"

Li Qinglin immediately dogged and said:

"That's right, daughter-in-law, you've always been my lucky star."

Driving to the gate of the base, several people stood in front of the sign of the base, took a group photo, and asked the guards to help take a group photo. As long as they don't break in and speak in a better tone, these GIs have a good attitude. They also chatted about tourism in China.

Highway 1 is not good at this, there are too many curves, and the distance from 50 kilometers has been stretched to more than 80 kilometers.

Scheduled trips to the beach can only be postponed until the next day, and there are 3 parks in a row:

s

s

area。 They are all beach dunes and the like, and many people come here by car all year round.

It is said that Highway 1 is very beautiful, but the essence of Highway 1 is in today's 200 kilometers of road, and the most beautiful is between Carmel and Saint-Simeon, which is sometimes connected with more than 10 sharp bends down the mountain road; Sometimes the straight road in front of you stretches forward until infinity; Sometimes there are large meadows along the beach and herds of cattle. Sometimes it's magnificent, sometimes it's as quiet as a paradise.

On the left, the mountains are covered with succulents that have been sunburned for five years and six colors, or patches of yellow grass or green meadows. Like a rainbow spanning the cliffs of the two mountains, the Bixque Bridge has become an important landmark of Grand Sur. There are often sightseeing spots on the roadside for tourists to stop and stop. There are spectacular cliffs and rocks, whale sightseeing with free binoculars, and herds of walruses.

Driving between the mountains and the sea on this road is very refreshing.

Just like that, he stopped and drove out of the beautiful Big Sur.

In Monterey they didn't go to the 17 miles of golf and only visited the aquarium. The Monterey Bay Aquarium is much more diverse than what you can see at the California Science Museum.

They then abandoned Highway 1 and took Highway 101. Finally arrived at today's accommodation in the evening, Gilroy.

The next morning, the last shopping stop of the tour, Gilroy's Outlets.

Li Qinglin asked Xiao Yifei with a sad face and a pitiful face:

"Brother, this is the last shopping spot, isn't it?"

Xiao Yifei laughed and didn't tell him that there was also one next to Napa.

In the afternoon, we passed through San Jose, Silicon Valley, and arrived in San Francisco. When I arrived in San Francisco, I must still stay at the Four Seasons Hotel, the old place, and a few people rested for an afternoon, and after dinner, Li Qinglin actually said that he wanted to go out for a walk.

"San Francisco's attractions are basically seen during the day, and there is nothing to see at night. Besides, the city center and some districts are still not safe at night, or tomorrow. ”

"You're so boring, it's boring to stay in a hotel, let's go, there's always good security."

Xiao Yifei thought for a while:

"Then let's go sit in Union Square."

Came to Union Square, walked around a few shopping malls, and the group came to the open-air coffee sitting. At this time, Li Qinglin saw the shop next to him and pointed to Xu Shuyun.

"Go ahead, I'm too lazy to move."

Xiao Yifei glanced at it, didn't find anything new, and asked curiously:

"What did you say?"

"That's it."

Xiao Yifei finally saw that what he was pointing to was actually an Apple store.

"Li Qinglin, aren't you crying poor, why did you take the initiative to buy apples this time?"

Li Qinglin took out a list with a bitter face:

"Hey, there's no way, it's for someone to bring it."

Li Qinglin, who was not accompanied, could only go to the store alone, and after a while, Li Qinglin came over with a large bag, and Xiao Yifei looked at what he bought.

"5 crazy, 4 pies. Are you going to open a store? ”

Li Qinglin shook his head and sighed:

"Hey, no way, I heard that we are going to the United States, and a bunch of people are going to help bring this thing."

"I just don't understand why so many people want to buy this."

"Cut, you're not using an iPhone yourself."

"I bought this when I first got off the plane, and it was very cheap."

"How cheap?"

"I'm a contract machine. Sign a one-year contract with a telecommunications company, promise to use it for 2 years, and get a monthly phone bill of no less than $60. ”

"Damn, it's so cheap."

"It's all so cheap, it's almost the same in this grade, I took one casually. As a result, I regretted taking it. ”

"Regrets? Why? ”

The Apple mobile phone is not used much in the city, but when it comes to the winery, the problem of Apple or the large-screen mobile phone is highlighted, that is, vulnerability.

Working in a winery or vineyard, it is inevitable that you often climb the hill, squat down and stand up, and put your mobile phone in your trouser pocket, which is inconvenient and inattentive to damage the screen. If you put it in your pocket, it will easily fall out when you are active. No wonder Davy: They basically use old-fashioned flip phones. If it weren't for the cancellation of the contract and a fine, Xiao Yifei would have planned to change his mobile phone.

Listening to the saxophone performance of the joint artist next to him, Xiao Yifei's thoughts drifted to investment.

Jensen had already called, and the proceeds from his paintings had been transferred to a Swiss bank card. Now the exchange rate of the pound against the US dollar is very high, reaching 1:1.688, deducting the exchange procedure of 0.03, and deducting the money used in his Hong Kong auction, a total of 236 million US dollars has arrived. This card was opened with his domestic ID card when he was traveling to inspect European agriculture, and it was definitely not under the surveillance of the US government, and it stands to reason that he should be able to evade the surveillance of the IRS.

The Internal Revenue Service (ISR) is the agency where God blocks and kills God, and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha. What made the IRS a household name was the Capone affair in the '30s.

Capone is a godfather, and he has countless younger brothers, and the U.S. government, the FBI, and the police can't do anything about him, because there is no evidence. In the end, it was the IRS who came out, and he was imprisoned for 11 years for a crime of not filing taxes (there seems to be a contradiction in the information about the number of years), and naturally Capone's empire was destroyed.

In the past year, the IRS has been in the limelight.

When Obama won the election and did not take office, his nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services Daschler, Secretary of the Treasury Geithner, and White House Chief Performance Officer Kleiff were continuously found by the IRS to evade taxes, and finally Obama carried the thunder for them, but only Geithner chose to accept the nomination, and the other two consciously canceled their plans to take office. And Geithner's secretary of the Treasury is the superior unit in charge of the IRS, so to speak, the IRS gives its future boss and his boss's boss a deterrent.

Such a powerful organization, everybody grits their teeth at them, and of course, they are also very conscious, and everyone who goes to the IRS has to go through strict security checks, and then they can only wait in the lobby and call you before you can go in and see the IRS staff.

Xiao Yifei was a newcomer, and he definitely didn't want to mess with this kind of organization that claimed to be able to stop crying, so he had to find someone to determine whether the money needed to be taxed.
