"Really?"

Dave didn't react for a while, and looked at him stunned.

Seeing that Ye Xuan's expression didn't seem to be joking, Dave then understood, hugged his shoulders excitedly, and said in surprise: "Haha, man, thank you so much." ”

To be honest, for a moment, Ye Xuan felt very embarrassed in his heart. Obviously, he took a big advantage, but the other party was grateful to Dade. But that feeling soon faded, because even if he hadn't bought the farm, Dave wouldn't have known that the treasure was actually buried in the farm.

And, after Dave sells his farm, he can get out of his current predicament and go to Darwin City to open a restaurant and live a better life.

After bringing all the real estate deeds and other materials, the three of them hurried to Darwin City.

At about 1 p.m., the three arrived in Darwin, and then rushed to a law firm.

Dave's farm is very special, unlike other land properties in the Northern Territory, it is strictly considered a noble territory, so there is no need to go through the local government department to go through procedures such as sale and transfer. Find a lawyer directly, and the notarization contract is sufficient, which is convenient and has legal effect, saving both people a lot of time and trouble.

But Rao was so, and they were busy for nearly two hours.

In the end, Ye Xuan paid a price of 450,000 Australian dollars and got a private territory with an area of up to 2,450 hectares. This is a private territory in the true sense of the word, and he has the final say in everything about this land, except for the annual tax payment, and the federal government cannot interfere.

The reason why 450,000 yuan was spent is mainly because the stamp duty in the Northern Territory is too high, which is not only Ye Xuan, but also local residents are unable to complain.

Dave also got $390,000, and after paying off the hundreds of thousands of debts from the bank, he still has a large sum of money left, which is completely enough to open a small restaurant in the city.

The furniture, electrical appliances and clothes in the villa Dave all needed to be taken away, and in addition, everything else was left to Ye Xuan. Today's time is not early, it is close to five o'clock in the evening, and the three of them simply agreed to go to the farm tomorrow to move things.

Seeing the pickup disappear from view, Ye Xuan and Lin Chuan also stopped a taxi and went to a nearby 4S store.

"Patriarch, you don't really plan to run a farm in the future, do you?" asked Lin Chuan in the taxi.

Ye Xuan said speechlessly: "I bought it to live by myself, and the ghost will run a farm." ”

The climate and environment of the Northern Territory are not suitable for agriculture and animal husbandry at all, and with the scarcity of fresh water resources, opening a farm will only lose money. Of course, the main reason for losing money is the government.

The Australian government is curious, first of all, it does not allow the development of groundwater resources, which makes farmers need to pay a large amount of extra water bills during the dry and hot dry season. You must know that Australia is different from China, fresh water resources are scarce, so the price is many times higher than that in China. A wet and rainy place like Queensland is fine, but in the Northern Territory, it's a different story.

According to statistics, the average annual water bill for each household in the Northern Territory of Australia is as high as 600 Australian dollars, equivalent to almost 3,000 yuan. For families in China, the annual water bill of more than 500 yuan is already very exaggerated, let alone 3,000 yuan.

This TM is only for domestic water, and if it is replaced by a farm, the cost will become very exaggerated. That's why, Dave has always said that fresh water is a major cost on farms.

Secondly, there is the issue of selling. Whether it is meat such as cattle and sheep, or agricultural and sideline products in Australia, it can only be sold domestically, and the selling price is completely controlled by the three major supermarkets.

To give a very simple example, there is currently a surplus of milk production in Australia, so the three major supermarkets have deliberately kept the price of milk very low, and 1 Australian dollar can buy two liters of milk. The vast majority of farms in the Northern Territory are at least 200 kilometers away from the nearest milk processing plant, and it costs 30 Australian dollars per hour to hire a truck driver, and Australian drivers are very fucked, they never overload, so counting a series of costs such as processing, selling 1 liter of milk will not only not make money, but will also lose 1.3 Australian dollars.

In addition, the Agricultural Bureau also very fucked regulations on the scale and number of each farm, for example, a 1,000-hectare farm can raise 2,000 head of cattle, but the Agricultural Bureau stipulates that only 1,200 head can be raised, and if you exceed this number, you will be fined. Moreover, the labor cost in Australia is very expensive, if you hire an employee, the hourly wage must not be less than 25 Australian dollars, and it will cost almost 6,000 Australian dollars a month.

For all these reasons, farmers in the Northern Territory are still making a lot of money, and they are thankful that they can save their capital.

"So what are you going to do? It's just a waste to stay. There are a lot of taxes to be paid every year, and it is not cost-effective at all. Lin Chuan also had some understanding of these and retorted.

Ye Xuan explained: "Are you stupid? Dave's farm is different from other farms and is not subject to government interference. I can do whatever I want, whether it's a resort or a hunting ground, which one is not profitable?"

In Australia, land must be used according to government planning, for example, if a farm is divided into agricultural and pastoral land, it cannot be used for commercial purposes, and it is simply not possible to convert the farm into a leisure resort. But Dave's farm is different, this land is a domain given to Baron Hall by the federal government, and the government has no control over it except for paying taxes.

Therefore, as long as he doesn't do illegal things, Ye Xuan can do whatever he wants on the farm.

Not to mention the fact that there are treasures and underground mineral resources, and there is no such thing as losing money?

During the conversation, the taxi had stopped in front of a 4S store.

After paying the fare and tips, the two walked briskly towards the store.

Coming to the 4S store is naturally to buy a car. Unlike foreign and domestic countries, the basic transportation is not developed, it will be very troublesome without a car, and taxis are very expensive, which is not cost-effective at all. If you live in the center of the city, that's fine, but if you live in the suburbs or on a farm, you have to have a car, otherwise even getting around will be a problem.

The best-selling car in Australia is the Japanese car, which is loved by locals because it is fuel-efficient and cheap. However, Ye Xuanbian didn't plan to buy a Japanese car, he wanted to buy a pickup truck.

Especially if you live on a remote farm, a pickup truck is even more necessary. Because of the remote location, there are no people within a radius of dozens of kilometers, and the nearest town is also two or three hours away by car, so it is impossible to travel and shop every day like in the city. Many times, the farmer often only goes out once a week or two, or even a month or two.

Every time I go out, I buy a lot of ingredients and daily necessities. In general, it is difficult to load so many things.

Of course, the most important point is that the pickup truck is durable and practical. From Ye Xuan's farm to Erwen City, there are nearly 100 kilometers of dirt roads on the way, which is a little better in the dry season, but it is muddy in the rainy season, and if it is replaced by a car, it is estimated that it will take two or three years to be completely reimbursed.

It's no exaggeration to say that pickup trucks are standard equipment for a farmer.

In fact, the Australian used car market is very mature, almost the same as the United States, and the price is very cheap. A second-hand BMW X3 costs only $8,000 Australian dollars, can you believe it? As for the pickup, it is even cheaper.

The reason why Ye Xuan chose a new car was mainly to save worry. Australian cars are very cheap, but the repair fee is very expensive, and if you buy a new car, the warranty period is generally 5 years, so he still decided to buy a new car.

Walking into the 4S store, the two went straight to the pickup area exhibition area.

The pickup truck doesn't have to be too good, after some selection, Ye Xuan chose a Holden Colorado. This brand, which is very unfamiliar to domestic people, is one of the few local brands in Australia, and its performance is not good, but it is cheaper.

The price is only $16,000!

Note that the 16,000 Australian dollars already includes stamp duty, and you don't need to pay other fees to drive it away.

Huaxia driver's license can be used in most countries around the world, including Australia, so after paying, Ye Xuan and the two drove away from the 4S store to get a license plate.

It is very simple to get a license in Australia, there is no need for the so-called detection of exhaust gas, and there is no such thing as annual inspection, and the whole process did not even exceed 10 minutes, Ye Xuan successfully got the license.
