After negotiating the price, Fang Yi was ready to pay, of course, a lawyer is indispensable, and he directly found a lawyer in Los Angeles to do the rest, and Fang Yi himself became the shopkeeper.

After the land is purchased, the next step is to think about the house.

Of course, there is not much money to pay for a small house or something, but if Fang Yi builds another big house on his own land, it will have to pay more. As for how much depends on how big the house Fang Yi builds, and the market valuation of the final house, there is no discussion at all in the capitalist countries.

Back in the hotel room, the first sentence Fang Yi said to Zou Heming: "Heming! Help me find an American designer! It's better to be younger."

"What kind of house are you going to build? Wood or concrete? Concrete is a little more expensive! If it's wooden, as long as it's not too out of line, it's almost the same as finding a random construction company, and you don't need an architect," Zou Heming thought for a while and said to Fang Yi.

Fang Yi shook his head: "I want concrete, a simple modern building with large floor-to-ceiling glass!" ”。 For the fact that the acre of land in China did not allow him to play freely, Fang Yi is still a little unhappy when he thinks about it now. I just got a piece of land here, and the scenery around me is so satisfying, it's time for me to make a big play! This time the house must be built to your satisfaction!

"You're the boss!" Zou Heming looked at Fang Yi and spread his hands and said, "Let's talk about it, what kind of requirements do you have, in addition to style." For the master bedroom, how much to ask about the guest room or something! ”。

Fang Yi thought for a moment: "I won't mention the master bedroom, I want four secondary bedrooms." Six guest rooms, and then my studio should be separate from the house, so that my studio is transparent on all sides! ”。 After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Of course, I also need a swimming pool, um!" Thermostatic! ”。

Reaching out and patting Fang Yi on the shoulder, Zou Heming said with a smile: "The California government will like you!" Such a house is built at least two or three hundred thousand dollars a year in taxes! But it's really nothing to you, it's just that I'm a little curious! You know the way, right? Build a house like this and find a professional designer, the check I gave you last time can only cover the design cost in addition to the land purchase. Have you figured out any ways to raise money to build a house? ”。

"What's that?" Fang Yi shrugged his shoulders relaxedly: "I'm going to sell one of the works in my collection, but if I can't do it, I'll sell two!" Now the Russian tycoons are crazy! ”。 Gregory's work has now easily jumped over $8 million, and is speeding straight to the tens of millions mark.

It seems that these Russian giants are trying to bring their own art back home. The ruble has been treated as waste paper. And the Russian media praised the magnates for spending a lot of money to bring Russian art back home. In Fang Yi's opinion, this behavior looks like the taste of sparing a lot of money for the head of the beast in China, and every time he returns to one, it is so fanfare. The whole media seems to have gone crazy.

Fang Yi didn't understand such a phenomenon. If Fang Yi is asked to say, it is better to invest the money to buy them to build a school, and then go and grab these things back later. The return to the right is also robbed by others, what is the matter of spending money to buy it back!

"Whose work? Buying one is enough for you to build a house like this? Zou Heming paused and asked Fang Yi.

"The Russian expressionist painter, Gregory's works, I still have two left, both of which can be regarded as his representative works, and they should be able to get a lot of money back from the Russians," Fang Yi replied.

Listen to Fang Yi say this. Zou Heming nodded and said with a smile: "That's enough, in addition to easter eggs and the works of a few Russian artists." The contemporary artist is the most accomplished artist! That's enough for you to build this house! ”。

"In general, the Russians paid for me to build a house!" Fang Yi said with a smile.

"Where are these two works now?" Zou Heming asked.

Fang Yi said: "Now hanging in my parents' residence, my room!" Save a little trouble, and I'm ready to hand it over to the domestic auction house! Anyway, they took it last time! ”。

Zou Heming thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you take it to the United States for auction!" ”。

"Why are you in such trouble?" Fang Yi waved his hand and said, "Just sell it in China and exchange it for dollars to build a house!" And the taxes in the United States are not light! ”。

Zou Heming looked at Fang Yi and said: "You don't understand the things inside, although the tax is a little heavier when you sell it in the United States, but compared with China, the tax on art sales is really nothing!" You sell in the U.S. and then spend the money in the U.S., there's a tax deduction in that, and if you spend it all, the tax money will be refunded to you! You came to the U.S. with U.S. dollars, didn't you pay China's art tax for nothing? And then pay the house tax or something, it's too much to repeat."

After a while in his mind, Fang Yi felt that this matter should be handled according to what Zou Heming said, the domestic art transaction tax is really too high, if you buy 8 million paintings, I am afraid that there will be 100 or hundreds of thousands of taxes to be paid, as for tax refunds? Fang Yi had only heard of it, but he really hadn't seen this thing yet.

As soon as Zou Heming said that Fang Yi was over, even if he didn't know about it, he would directly check China's art transaction tax on the Internet to know how ruthless this thing is in China.

"That's fine! Just do as you say, and I'll call my parents in the evening and ask them to get ready to ship the paintings to the United States! "Having saved more than a million dollars, Fang Yi is still very happy. Fang Yi This is not tax evasion, this is called reasonable tax avoidance.

"And how many more days can you stay here?" Zou Heming asked.

"I'll leave tomorrow night! I still have a lot of work to do! Fang Yi opened his mouth and said that during this time, Fang Yi has been devoting most of his time to paint and oil, until now Fang Yi has only five works on hand and satisfied with himself, and there is still a little distance from setting up a stall at the Venice Biennale, and there is really no effort to mess around here in Los Angeles.

Zou Heming asked, "What about finding an architectural firm?" ”。

"You can find one for me, I want that kind of young and creative architect, not that kind of uninteresting thing! Other than that, I don't have any big requirements," Fang Yi said.

Zou Heming listened and said, "You still don't have any requirements?" ”。

Fang Yi smiled and patted Zou Heming's shoulder.

In the evening of the next day, Fang Yi arranged this matter, flew back to Paris from Los Angeles, and began to devote most of his time to creation, taking a little time every day to go into his small workshop to 'study' the painting materials.

A week later, Zou Heming sent Fang Yi some information about the architects, and asked Fang Yi to select the right ones from among them in order to start the design of the villa.

Fang Yi sat on the sofa at home and looked at some of the information at hand, and then asked Beronica, who was sitting next to him, "Which person do you think is more suitable?" ”。

"I don't understand, why do you have to spend so much energy to build such a big villa in Los Angeles!" Beronica flipped through the information in her hand and opened her mouth to speak.

Fang Yi said happily: "You haven't been there before!" I'll take you around when I have time! Speaking of this, Fang Yi raised his arm, his palm was in the shape of a knife, and he cut it: "That place is really amazing!" Just as I thought, there were trees everywhere, clear streams, and wild animals were often seen in the woods! I can still see some deer, and I even saw a fox! Not to mention the squirrels scurrying around the trees! ”。

"Do you still want to move your home?" Beronica looked at Fang Yi and said.

"Why not?" Fang Yi looked at Belonica and said, "Anyway, let's not sit in the office at work and listen to those bosses pointing fingers!" Even if you come to Paris, it's convenient for you, grab your passport and get on the plane! ”。

Beronica looked at Fang Yi and said, "I don't want to live in Los Angeles!" ”。

"Let's talk about it!" Fang Yi preached disapprenosingly. Building such a house in Paris is much higher, even in the countryside, the land price is higher than where I just bought, and although the environment in Europe is good, after all, it has been developed for thousands of years, and the beauty has lost the original taste there.

"I think this guy is good!" Fang Yi pointed to a piece of information in his hand and said, the information read: Wyatt? Frontham! Some of this person's works are interesting in Fang Yi's opinion!

Taking the information from Fang Yi's hand, Beronica flipped her mouth and said, "It's quite imaginative!" After looking at the information, he read it softly: "The Gensler Architectural Office in Los Angeles?" Look at this age, it shouldn't be a few years after graduating from college! Isn't it a little too young! ”。

"Isn't it good to be young?" Fang Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to the paper in Beronica's hand and said, "I like his creativity and imagination!" ”。

"Be creative and imaginative without fail! But you're going to build a building, and a building that's too imaginative to support it is a heavy pocket! Beronica glanced at her boyfriend and smiled.

"Money is coming soon, and the Russian tycoons are going to pay for my house right away! I'm going to let him use his imagination to the fullest! If the design is satisfactory to me, then invest a little more! Fang Yi generously put his two arms on the back of the sofa and said happily.

Belonica hadn't been very concerned about how much money Fang Yi had, but she still asked, "Then you are ready, it is possible to build a villa for hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions, do you have so much money?" ”。

"Hundreds of millions of people haven't thought about it! I've prepared a budget, if a few million can't do it, then invest a little more, and finally see the plan! Fang Yi said.

Beronica listened and put down the information in her hand: "You just have to decide!" ”。

"That's him!" Fang Yi pointed to this person named Wyatt? Said the young American architect of Frantum. After saying that, he didn't pack his things, got up from the sofa, and followed his girlfriend into the room.

Fang Yi still doesn't know what it means to this architect by clicking on his hand, and choosing this young architect! (To be continued......)
