When he got up in the morning, Shi Lei ran to the beach as usual to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. Many young people in the United States have the habit of exercising, especially the wealthy.

Santa Barbara is undoubtedly occupied by rich and idle people, so there are not many people who get up in the morning to run on the beach, and after seeing Shi Lei, they also greet him in a friendly way.

There are many young beauties who come out for morning exercise, and they are all proud to run on the plank road wearing cool sports**, and some are also holding their own dogs, and the protrusions on their chests are falling together with the running action, which is really a rare sight.

Especially most of these beauties who insist on exercising have good figures, which makes Shi Lei feast his eyes, which is also an important motivation for Shi Lei to insist on morning exercise. is also the reason why Shi Lei obviously has a well-equipped gym, but he doesn't like to exercise at home.

On the one hand, there are beautiful views, fresh air, and moving beauties, and on the other hand, there are only unchanged walls and cold machines, and a normal person knows which one to choose.

In fact, this is also Shi Lei's mentality has not been adjusted, and he has not understood how much difference there is between the life of the American emperor and the rich, he can not drool at a beautiful woman, but like many Midi rich second generations, he has a young people's party or a topless dance party, and a lot of beauties are willing to post it.

It's just that the strict education since childhood has made Shi Lei's three views very positive, and he can't accept this rotten life of capitalism.

It's like he is already very rich now, and there are still more than 300 million U.S. knives lying in the bank to eat interest, but I haven't seen him go out with luxury cars, yachts, and private jets, and even a few brand-name clothes or legendary watches that represent the value of men have not been purchased (of course, the system is still worn as a watch, and it can also change its appearance at any time and disguise itself as any watch, which is really unnecessary).

Up to now, Shi Lei is still used to wearing denim or casual clothes when he goes out, the watch is still the shape of Hamilton, and the F150 Raptor with a ranch in the car is enough.

On the one hand, Shi Lei's influence since childhood made him develop the habit of frugality, but he will not pick the door, but he will never be extravagant and wasteful.

On the other hand, Shi Lei is a more rational person, and the sudden receipt of a huge sum of money did not make him float, except for the ranch and other properties that Shi Lei spent a lot of money to create his own business, and the others did not have any big expenses, and they would only be considered when necessary.

Moreover, Shi Lei felt that after he really made a lot of money through his own efforts, he would be qualified to start enjoying the wealth he had created.

However, this time the domestic classmates came to play, Shi Lei did not have a suitable car to pick them up, especially if he wanted to include food and lodging throughout the whole process, it was impossible to call a few cowboys to drive his friends every time, and it would be inconvenient to communicate in that case, so he decided to buy a car that could fit all the people who would come this time.

There are 8 people who came this time, and it is not easy to find a car that meets the requirements, and the full-size luxury SUVs of various brands, such as Toyota Sequoia, Cadillac Escalade, Range Rover, etc., can seat up to 7 or 8 people, including the driver, and the third row space is very cramped, not suitable for long-distance travel.

In the end, Shi Lei took a look, there are three models that are suitable, and they are undoubtedly Midi cars, because the people of the United States have always been not seeking the best in the pursuit of cars, but seeking the largest, whether it is the body size, or the displacement and power have this trend.

Shi Lei's target is Ford's E-series off-road wagon, the GMC Business Star, which looks about the same as the former, and the F650, which is jokingly called driving on the second floor.

Ford's F650 is no longer an SUV but an XUV, with a height of 1.1 meters for the original tires alone, and a car like a Hummer is like a small child in front of it.

After the modification, the design of the six-door door and the 9-seat passenger space including the driver's seat, coupled with ultra-luxurious built-in equipment, can meet Shi Lei's needs. Of course, its price is enough, the front price is nearly 60,000 US dollars, and the renovation cost is 220,000 US dollars not including tax.

But what is inappropriate for Shi Lei is that this model is fully customized, only the front of the car is ready-made, and it will definitely not be able to get the goods in the short term, and it cannot meet Shi Lei's needs, so it was honorably eliminated.

As for Ford's E series and GMC's Business Star, there are many similarities in both exterior and interior. However, GMC has recently introduced a new model with improvements in the exterior and interior, and the key is that the powertrain of the Business Star is much better than that of the Ford E series at a similar price, as the Ford still uses the previous generation of 4-speed gearbox and the 6.8-liter V8 engine of N years ago.

Therefore, Shi Lei's ultimate goal is to set the 10-seater model of GMC's Business Star 2500S sports version.

This model has a length of 6.2 meters, a width of more than 2 meters, a height of 2.4 meters and a wheelbase of nearly 4 meters, which is already the size of an ordinary medium-sized bus, and can usually pull the space of 20 people.

The car has a fully functional bar, the second row of electrically heated massage seats, and the back two rows of long seats can be completely folded down to form a flat big bed.

The new model also comes standard with a 40-inch LCD screen in front of the second-row seats, as well as an integrated in-car control system and office system, as well as fax and Wi-Fi, which is convenient and fast.

Behind the second-row seats, there are several small LCD monitors that provide entertainment for rear passengers, and the starry roof and cashmere upholstery make the interior feel comfortable and luxurious. The combination of a 6.0-liter V8 engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission, as well as a 20-inch big foot, allows you to travel with confidence.

The interior of this car can also be fully customized, but the standard equipment can already meet Shi Lei's requirements, so for Shi Lei, as long as he pays a total price of $120,000 after tax, a car that can not only be used to pick up friends and family on trips, but also can be used as a private mobile palace, the price is a little cheaper than the latest Mercedes-Benz S-class.

After having a good experience of this car in a nearby 4S store, Shi Lei happily signed a check to the store manager who smiled very sincerely.

In order to facilitate the luggage of the students, Shi Lei added an electrically foldable trunk lid flush with the roof to the trunk of his beloved Raptor pickup, so that he did not have to worry about the damage to the students' things in bad weather such as rain.

In addition, in order to fulfill the promise to his classmates, Shi Lei, who usually has no fishing habits, went to buy a few pairs of fishing rods and bait. And several quad motocross bikes on the ranch were overhauled one by one.

As for the horses in the ranch, I bought more than a dozen spare horses under Hanks's mention when I bought them, all of which were good ranch horses such as Quart, which could fully meet the needs of the students.

After thinking about it carefully, Shi Lei went to the outdoor goods store and chose a few camping tents, even if the students couldn't use them this time, they could also use them for camping in the future.

Finally, Shi Lei remembered Jack Lee, whom he hadn't seen for a while, and this benevolent brother had disappeared for a while since the last meeting, because he was making great efforts for Shi Lei's future.

It is foreseeable that Shi Lei's annual income in the future will definitely be very high, at least it will easily exceed the annual income required by the maximum personal income tax rate of 35%, so in order to achieve the purpose of reasonable tax avoidance, in addition to registering several offshore accounts in the early stage, in order to deal with the IRS's possible asset investigation of Shi Lei, Shi Lei needs to take more measures.

Fortunately, Shi Lei currently only holds a U.S. green card, and has not become a naturalized U.S. citizen, so he can change his nationality relatively lightly, because the United States is very strict in regulating the outflow of nationals.

But there are too many people in China, and it doesn't matter if you lose one or two, and neither Shi Lei himself nor his relatives have any big officials who will be remembered, and Shi Lei's acquisition of a large amount of money is currently unknown in China, which makes Shi Lei become a foreign citizen with a lot less variables.

Shi Lei's destination country is St. Kitts and Nevis, a tax haven known as a Caribbean country with no personal income tax – except for the individual portion of social insurance. It is also one of the few countries that offers "citizenship by investment".

At some point, obtaining citizenship may seem relatively easy, but it's basically not cheap. The country stipulates that a minimum investment of $400,000 in real estate in the country, plus an application fee, or a donation of $250,000 to a public welfare agency, can apply for naturalization. Dependents (dependents) over the age of 18 are subject to an additional fee of $50,000 each, in addition to the spouse of the main applicant.

Shi Lei has also asked his parents for their opinions on this matter before, mainly because he is afraid that his parents who have been patriotic for many years will not be able to get over this hurdle in their hearts, but thinking about patriotism, it doesn't matter about nationality, and he can't cheapen a lot of money to the Midi government, so he finally agreed to Shi Lei's plan, but his parents will definitely not immigrate again.

Although this small country has more visa-free or visa-on-arrival countries than the domestic country, there are more than 100 countries or territories. It provides great convenience for traveling, etc., and there is no need to worry about being rejected by many countries that are completely incomprehensible.

Shi Lei chose to donate 250,000 US dollars, because it takes 3 to 4 months to successfully become a naturalized citizen, and investing in real estate is not only a troublesome process, but also requires 7 to 12 months of review time.

In addition, Shi Lei's money is now scattered in banks located in various tax havens such as the Virgin Islands, Bermuda, British Jersey, Nauru and Panama, and a number of offshore companies have been registered in these places, respectively, controlling a part of the shares of ROCKSTONE, and controlling Stone Ranch through ROCKSTONE in Nevada. And Shi Lei just got a little bit of a stake in ROCKSTONE from an offshore company that didn't know who it belonged to.

Most of the profits from ranches will be deposited in overseas accounts, so as not to give the IRS a chance to take advantage of them. Moreover, formally Shi Lei is just an ordinary employee, with a small salary. The development of reservoirs in China is also controlled in this form.

Of course, in addition to Jack Lee's unsparing help, he also has to rely on the law firm he works for and its parent company, they have a lot of experience in dealing with such things, and even offshore companies are prepared in advance, what Shi Lei needs to do is to keep signing a series of complex contracts and pay a considerable amount of money to the law firm.

Of course, Shi Lei also had to give Jack Lee some compensation, and a check for 100,000 US dollars made Jack Lee immediately stop complaining about endless flights and signings, and put on an obscene smile.

Shi Lei invited Jack Lee to bring the whole family to the ranch to play again on the phone, and by the way, he introduced a few friends from China, and Jack Lee happily agreed.
