Chapter 121: A New Home

The work on the ranch is almost done, and the old Thomas is paying attention to the new TL gray cattle several times a day, always keeping track of the movements of these cattle, and even driving them into the fence at night, coaxing them like a baby, and even having the heart to give each cow a name, after branding, basically have to get up twice every night to see it, and the concern for the cattle makes Ju An a little moved. It is estimated that when I was young, I didn't care about my wife so much.

As soon as Lu Guangyuan and his wife came to hug the puppy, Ju An received a call from Wang Fan, Wei Dong and his family will come tomorrow, Ju An also began to pack up his things, ready to fly to New York in the afternoon, by the way to see Wang Fan's new home, the next day to meet the two newlyweds who sent a circle of money in Paris. After arranging the matter at hand, he handed over the two little birds and the little mountain lion to Da Zhuang to watch, let Thomas take him to the airport, and Ju An boarded the flight to New York.

As soon as he got out of the airport passage, he saw a big sign with his name written on it, Wang Fan behind the sign, wearing a sunglasses, a white shirt and trousers, was waving at Ju An, Ju An smiled and walked over and hugged Wang Fan.

Wang Fan lifted the luggage, saying that the luggage was a small soft cloth bag, with some changes of clothes in it, not much weight, Ju An smiled and said to Wang Fan: "I thought it was a big pants and a checkered shirt, and now I am dressed like a white-collar worker, yes, my image has suddenly improved a lot."

Wang Fan replied with a smile: "It was all chosen by Cora, saying that I used to dress at home as if I was on vacation in Hawaii, and it was a bit weird to wear it in New York."

"Damn! Your hands are fast enough, you have brought the female police officer to the house in a few days, I thought it would take at least two months to make progress, just now this is like me showing off my girlfriend's ability" Ju An teased.

Wang Fan said proudly: "As the saying goes, a good martyr is afraid of pestering her, which is applicable in ancient and modern times at home and abroad, and my brother has a deep understanding of it, so he will take it by a little means."

Ju An teased: "Damn! When you say that, I think about the scene when you were handheld and dragged into the bureau by others, which is really funny."

Immediately, Wang Fan's smugness was held back. The two of them chatted while walking like this, and after a while they arrived at the parking lot, Ju An saw that Wang Fan's car was actually a second-hand Ford, and said strangely: "These words are gone, your inner realm has also improved a lot, I think you want to buy a second-hand car, I thought you should at least get your favorite Audi."

Wang Fan touched his head embarrassedly when he heard it: "I really bought an Audi station wagon, but it was taken away by Cora today, this car will be repaired today, she asked me to help her pick up the car in the morning, and I have to drive it today."

Raised a middle finger towards Wang Fan, Ju An got into the co-pilot's seat, Wang Fan got into the car and threw Ju An's bag back and started the car.

After more than ten minutes out of the airport, he arrived at Wang Fan's house, Wang Fan stopped the car in front of the garage, Ju'an walked out and saw that the good guy was a cut taller than his ranch house, with blue-gray eaves and white walls. In front of the house is a large meadow with a swimming pool of twenty or thirty square meters.

When Wang Fan parked the car and came out with Ju An's bag, Ju An said to Wang Fan: "Good guy, it looks bigger than the house on my ranch, can you two live in such a big house?"

Wang Fan said with a smile: "It looks bigger, but it's really not as big as your house, you have a big and empty place, so it seems that the house is small, and my third floor is only five bedrooms, with four bathrooms." I was going to buy a smaller one, but after asking again, there was no small one, and the agent said that there are some public facilities in the school district here and everything is very good, so I bought it."

Ju An followed Wang Fan into the house, carefully looked at the decoration in the house, the decoration is still full of style, not very luxurious but looks very tasteful, light floor, light ceiling, white wall hanging some oil paintings, Wang Fan took Ju An upstairs, opened a bedroom, and then took Ju An's luggage in, Ju An took a look, a large bed with light flower sheets, a TV hanging on the wall, plain wallpaper looks simple and generous, with reading power of the bathroom, go in and take a look, Toothpaste, toothbrush, etc., have been prepared for yourself.

As soon as the luggage was still on the side of the bed, Ju An followed Wang Fan downstairs, and when he arrived in the living room, there was a fireplace in front of several dark black sofas, Wang Fan took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator for Ju An, and then the two of them sat on the sofa and chatted.

Wang Fan took a sip of beer and asked, "How about your ranch where things are going well?"

Ju An nodded and said: "It's not bad, a large number of cattle have been brought in, and now there are more than 30,000 cattle in the pasture, and the manpower has also increased a lot, more than 20 cowboys."

Wang Fan said with a smile: "According to me, you really might as well engage in tourism, when the time comes, let Wu Ming be in the country, how easy it is to contact your ranch directly, you just can't think of it."

"I'm annoying a lot, it's better to raise some cattle and sheep or something, you don't have to face so many people, by the way, when you come to the United States, Wu Ming will take care of domestic affairs, you are too hand-shaken, you are really deceitful enough to put the work that you suffer on others" Ju An said teasingly.

Wang Fan said with a smile: "I'm not here to eat and drink for nothing, I'm also preparing to open a trading company here, that is, to make a little money by turning things from the United States and China.

"This trade is not very easy to do, I met two people who do domestic and foreign trade at a dinner party, both of whom are Chinese," Ju An thought for a while and said.

"Whoever pours that thing, they are usually toys, towels, clothes and the like, and I pour some big things, what small machines, big factory machine tools or something," Wang Fan said.

Ju An was a little worried: "You have to be careful, Lao Mei thinks that everything is a treasure, and even a broken rag can't wait to be sold to you as high-tech, you mess around, maybe one day the FBI or something will find you to drink tea."

Wang Fan smiled and patted Ju An's shoulder: "I'm not a spy, I just want to dump high-end things, and I don't need me in China, those big companies in the United States are about to turn red-eyed, watching Germany and France export some things from time to time to make money, I can only do it, I just dump some machines or something to be an agent, civilian people don't break the law, I'm not stupid, if I dump those, I dare to live in the United States."

The two talked about kung fu for a while, and it was time for dinner, Ju An looked at the table below and joked to Wang Fan: "Why won't Cora come yet, waiting for her to cook."

Wang Fan was stunned when he heard this: "What Cora cooks?" She won't be staying here today, and we will settle it ourselves if we want to have dinner."

Ju An looked at Wang Fan and said with a smile: "Damn! I said why did you tell me to come early, it turned out that I wanted to cook, didn't you and Cora have lived in bed, why are you still living separately, I thought you were living together."

"That's what I mean, you don't know the old beauty, sleeping with you is the same thing, moving in with you is the same thing, Cora only comes to live with you occasionally, or I go to her now, because I heard that you are coming, she will not come today, let me catch up with the old days, tomorrow night she will come over after work, and meet Wei Dong and his family" Wang Fan explained.

"Talk about your sister's old, you owe it to move to my house next door and reminisce about the old" After speaking, Ju An had to stand up, walked to the kitchen, looked at what was in the refrigerator, and did it himself.

made three or four dishes casually, Wang Fan cut some cold dishes, and salted duck eggs bought from the Chinese supermarket, the two of them made a little wine, and chatted while eating, and the time passed quickly, and when the two of them finished drinking, they had already arrived at the hotel, and the two of them killed a little more than a pound of liquor, and then they went upstairs and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, the two of them had nothing to do for most of the day, and in the afternoon they went to the airport again and took Wei Dong and his wife, who were carrying large and small bags, to Wang Fan's residence.

Wei Dong and his family got out of the car and put down their luggage, visited Wang Fan's house, and just sat on the sofa in the living room and boasted: "Yes, this single-family family actually has a swimming pool, and it costs a lot of money."

Wang Fan said with a smile: "It cost a total of six or seven hundred thousand US dollars."

Wei Dong nodded and said, "That's not expensive, such a big house, with a piece of turf and a swimming pool, how much did it cost to decorate."

"It's all decorated, even six or seven hundred thousand renovations," Wang Fan explained with a smile.

Wei Dong's wife also nodded and said: "That's really not expensive, it's only about four million yuan for co-authoring, and this price is just enough to buy a three-bedroom apartment in Haishi."

Ju An explained with a smile: "This house is not something you don't have to spend money to buy, you have to pay property tax every day, I don't know how much it is in New York, it is generally one to three percent, and you have to pay it every year, and I have to pay hundreds of thousands of taxes a year, which is fixed, although it varies from state to state, but it can't be saved."

Wang Fan said with a wry smile: "New York is three percent, the highest in the United States, and New York's taxes are also the highest in the United States, I have to pay more than 20,000 US dollars for this house a year, and there are all kinds of miscellaneous expenses that add up to more than 30,000 US dollars."

Wei Dong said: "This means that it is cheap to buy a house here in the United States, and it is expensive to raise a house, and this house will cost more than 200,000 yuan a year, which is really a lot, and it is more than 2 million yuan in ten years, which is not cheap when it adds up."

Ju An said with a smile: "Don't be emotional, Comrade Bill Gai's house in Washington State has to pay more than one million dollars in property taxes a year, so you will have a balance in your heart."

Wang Fan scolded with a smile: "Can these two houses be compared, I don't even think it's even the size of someone's own movie theater, your spirit is a bit ridiculous."
