Half an hour later.
Chen Rui and Dawson. Berg met at a coffee shop.
"Mr. Chen, this is the information you want." Dawson. Berg sat down, took out a stack of Wen Jiàn from Wen Jiàn's bag, and handed it to Chen Rui.
"Thank you, please." Chen Rui took the text, thanked him, and asked the waiter for two cups of coffee.
A few days ago, Chen Rui asked Dawson. Berg consulted about the purchase of farms, pastures and islands abroad.
Chen Rui's personality is a little youthful.
Loved traveling, hiking, nice scenery, like freedom.
Longing for a life away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
It has always been Chen Rui's dream to have a farm with natural idyllic scenery, or a pasture with green grass, rivers, blue skies, and herds of cattle and sheep, or a private island surrounded by turquoise waters and bathed in sunlight away from the hustle and bustle.
There is a lot of information, very complete, it seems that Dawson. It took a lot of effort for Berg to gather this information.
First of all, there are some conditions for buying farms, pastures, and islands abroad.
In Canada, for example, farms and ranches are immovable property, and Canadian provinces have different regulations on foreigners' acquisition of farms.
In Prince Edward Island on the East Coast and Saskatoon, Alberta and Manitoba, the three traditionally agricultural provinces of the Midwest, foreigners are allowed to own land limited to 5 acres, 10 acres or less than 40 acres, respectively.
In the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, and New Brunswick, there are no laws in place that explicitly restrict foreign investment in agriculture, but foreigners are subject to registration, reporting, and taxation.
In contrast, Ontario is not only the locomotive of the Canadian economy, but also the most open area for foreign investment, Ontario is the only province in Canada that treats Canadian citizens, foreign citizens, new and old immigrants to buy farms equally, the price is uniform, you can buy as much as you want, and the property rights always belong to the buyer.
There are also restrictions on the purchase of islands.
It is worth noting that no matter which country the island is purchased, the purchaser only has the ownership and right to use the island, and has no sovereignty, and the sovereignty belongs to the country to which the island belongs.
Moreover, some countries also have very strict regulations on the remodeling, construction, and construction of island owners on the island.
After reading some conditions for buying farms, pastures, and islands abroad.
Chen Rui flipped to the next page, and the text Jiàn listed the farms, ranches and islands that had recently been put up for sale.
The first is agriculture and animal husbandry, farms, and pastures, which are mainly distributed in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and other sparsely populated and relatively free countries.
For example, in Canada, the southern region from west to east is fertile and is an excellent agricultural and pastoral region.
Eighty-nine per cent of Canada's land is publicly owned.
Chen Rui took a general look, and there were many farms and pastures listed for sale.
Areas range from a few hundred acres to tens of thousands of acres, and prices range from hundreds of thousands of dollars to hundreds of millions of dollars.
For example, in the San Benito River Basin in California, there is a Stone Canyon Ranch, covering a total area of 10,000 acres, with vineyards, farms and pastures, and the price is 32 million US dollars, equivalent to about 200 million yuan.
In Ontario, Canada, a large quality farm (Grade 1 land) of nearly 7,000 acres in the south is for sale in its entirety at an asking price of $20,000 per acre.
After looking at it for a while, Chen Rui turned to the next page.
This page lists the islands listed for sale.
More than 600 in total.
In the list of sellers of the islands, Chen Rui saw the names of many Hollywood stars and American tech tycoons.
For example, the famous singer Celine. Dion sold a small Canadian island with a French-style villa for $30 million.
One of the founders of Microsoft, Paul. Allen put the island not far from Seattle up for sale for $13 million
The more than 600 islands are priced in the range of $5,500 to hundreds of millions of dollars.
The $5,500 area is about 1,500 square meters and is located in the middle of a Canadian inland lake.
The most expensive was the island of Serralvo in Mexico's Gulf of California, at $350 million. The island is an untouched virgin land and is located 30 miles from the mainland. The reason why the price is so high is because the island has an area of 60 square miles, and one square mile is converted into kilometers, which equals 2.59 square kilometers.
The island of Seralvo covers more than 150 square kilometers.
The main areas of island distribution are in Europe and the eastern islands of Canada, the islands of the West Coast of the United States, the Caribbean Islands, the islands of Central America, the islands of South America, the islands of Australia and New Zealand, the French Atlantic Islands and the Indian Ocean islands.
The island's main source is mainly privately owned, but there are also state-owned sources.

Chen Rui feels that buying an island is not as difficult as everyone thinks.
Most of the islands listed for sale are priced in the range of hundreds of thousands of dollars ~ millions of dollars.
Converted into RMB, it is between 2 million ~ 6 and 7 million.
In China, the money can only buy a slightly larger house in the bustling urban area of a first-tier city.
It's not difficult to buy an island, but how to develop an island is the key.
To make the island live. There are several problems to be solved.
First, the problem of transportation.
Second, sources of electricity, communications, and drinking water.
Third, food supply.
Fourth, when you buy an unexplored island, you sometimes have to deal with wild animals or endangered rare animals.
For example, Hollywood star Nicholas. Cage once bought a small island in the Bahamas for $3 million, but the discovery of an endangered lizard on the island and the authorities' ban on human exploitation shattered his dreams of living on the island.
These problems, for the average person, can be a big problem, in addition to the money to buy the island, it will cost a lot of money to build a residence, a garbage disposal site, water supply, electricity, communication system, docks, etc.
These problems are not too big a problem for Chen Rui, who wants to run the island and has a huge fortune of 240 million US dollars, as well as a pregnant Haizhu.
After reading some information about the islands listed for sale.
Of the more than 600 islands for sale listed above, Chen Rui did not fancy one.
