Chapter 483 Birth of an Alternative Island Country

The lights are on.

The fishing boat bb has left.

The sailors on the Big Penguin sent the blood-released fish to the cold storage for storage.

Han Xuan asked someone to cut more than 20 kilograms of fish spine from the back of the big marlin. This is the strongest place on its body and is suitable for charcoal grilling.

Walk back to the villa located on the Peninsula.

Fat Ding ran to greet Han Xuan quickly. Halfway through the way, he saw the big octopus crawling out in the bucket that George was carrying. He was so scared that he jumped back quickly, with his cute big eyes open.

He meowed twice, as if he was questioning Han Xuan, was he planning to raise this ugly guy?

I learned that it was just food, and I immediately became interested in it, and my saliva was brewing in my mouth

McDull solved his physiological problems everywhere before, but later Winnie didn't pay attention and stepped on it!

After running to the beach and taking a shower inside and out, I was holding down McDull and slapped his butt with the bear paw on it.

Every time I shoot, I have to stop and roar twice, looking very angry!

Poor McDull couldn't break free, yes, yes, yes, yes kept calling, and when he saw the master come back, tears rolled in his eyes.

Winnie sniffed her nose, and it smelled the food in the air. She immediately let go of McDull, shaking the greasy body, and ran over with a smile on her face...

The people in black not far away saw it running wildly towards the boy and put their hands on their waists. Butler Elna hurriedly explained a few words, and then they relaxed.

Han Xuan saw three Mercedes-Benz S600 sedans flying the Maldives flag and parked at his doorstep.

The license plate is from San Francisco, and it should be a temporary rental car. Those men in black are naturally bodyguards.

The smaller the country, the more it likes to show off. This is understandable to the image of a country.

Remembering that he had agreed to discuss the purchase of the island with the people from the Maldives Embassy yesterday, Han Xuan patted his head in annoyance, and even forgot about it.

Seeing that my grandfather's Bentley was also there, he quickly walked into the villa and suddenly put two pigeons on his face, and his smile became brighter.

There is no way, I can only be cute and ask for forgiveness.

On the sofa in the living room, Grandpa was talking to a short, dark-skinned middle-aged man.

Han Xuan asked with a smile: “It’s Mr. Marta, right?

I'm very sorry, I was dragged by a bluefin tuna and couldn't walk away. It took me five hours to catch it."

"It's okay, it's raining heavily in Washington, and my plane is delayed. It's not long since I arrived." Marta spoke fluently in English and must have been in the United States for a long time.

“Please enjoy dinner here tonight, I brought a piece of marlin back.

I remember when I was in the Maldives, you local residents liked to eat this and octopus.

I'm going to take a shower first, there's a fishy smell on my body, I'm sorry."

"I have nothing to do at night. I'm not in a hurry, please feel free to..."

Finished politely.

Han Xuan came to the second floor. His father seemed to have just gotten up, wearing pajamas and holding a cup of coffee. The top of the nightcap like a Christmas hat was hung obliquely behind his head, standing by the window and looking at the sea view.

Han Xuan teased and asked him: "Why, the game is over?"

"No, I'll get the sixth mission.

I had a headache. I didn’t sleep for a year when I was young, but now I can’t do it.

It was so embarrassing by your grandfather this time.”

Han Qianshan turned around, his hair was messy on his forehead. After saying that, he took a coffee cup and drank it, and sighed.

"Just blow it, I'll become a panda in one night.

Dad, wash and change clothes quickly, and a customer is here.”

"Who?"

"The people from the Maldives Embassy have some islands left and have not been sold. I think they will appreciate in the future, so I want to buy them.

And one of my friends is coming, you've met at Brown University, Ramirez."

"Well, then I'll go and have someone prepare dinner..."

Half an hour passed.

After taking a simple shower, drying his hair, Han Xuan looked in front of the mirror, and changed into casual autumn clothes to go downstairs.

Seeing his grandfather and Marta standing in front of the oil painting of "Academic Athens", he asked him: "Is it a painting of Leonardo da Vinci?"

"At least I didn't see anything wrong, it should be a painting without historical records.

When I left, I brought it to my friends in the collection industry. There was a person who had a picture of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Savior" in his hand. He had specialized in all the oil paintings of Leonardo da Vinci, and he knew more than I did."

Han Xuan found a smile on his grandfather's face and said happily: "It seems that I will give him a red envelope to Professor Gordon who helped me identify.

Mr. Marta, did your President agree to the matter discussed yesterday?"

"There is no problem with everything else, but he wants to settle the money for buying those islands in three years.

But if you persist for five years, I don’t think it’s a big problem. I have already drafted a contract and I’ll wait for you to sign it.

The President gave me the authorization to sign a contract with you on behalf of the Republic of Maldives, and see what else is wrong.”

After Marta finished speaking, she took out a document from her bag.

I glanced at the painting on the table. The price of this painting was comparable to the sixteen best islands in my country, and I couldn't help but feel sad.

The money from this family in front of us can even buy the entire Maldives

Han Xuan finished reading it himself first, and then handed the thick document to his grandfather.

Guo Muzhou looked at the additional conditions for buying islands for a while, and there were no abnormal treaties like buying islands in the United States, where there were protected animals on the island.

When he saw the tax collection, he raised his head and said, "Corporate income tax is 30% of the profit, which is too high.

The initial investment is huge, and the maintenance expenses are not small in the future. This will take us many years to make a profit.

We cannot agree to this point if you don’t have to invest anything, but you take such a large amount of money.

Even the world's most demanding tax policies will not be imposed so high every year, which is higher than the inheritance tax in the United States."

Marta was embarrassed, and he knew that this was unreasonable, and said, "The people who bought the island before all had the same policy."

Han Xuan said: "They are personal use, and business accounts for only a small part, which cannot drive the tourism industry in the Maldives.

But I am different. I plan to build them into resort islands that attract tourists, which is different.

I couldn't make much money at all, but if I charge such a high tax, I have no profit. When I make the construction money back, I will invest in hotel decoration and other aspects.

Maybe the number of tourists will decrease during the off-season, and you will lose money.”

Guo Muzhou never objected to this kind of purchase of permanent property rights of land.

Especially for these beautiful islands, the rich have always regarded them as fixed asset investment projects.

Bangkong said: "Yes, maybe we need to think about it again."

Marta became anxious when he heard this. If the government had money, he would definitely develop it on its own, but the problem was that he had no money!

The news of buying an island has spread to China, and the president has even said that it can create jobs for thousands of people.

This is equivalent to solving the livelihood problems of thousands of families in one go, allowing more than 5,000 people from the Maldives to solve their food and clothing.

If it is bad, I guess the president will be replaced tomorrow.

After thinking about it, he asked, "What do you think is appropriate?"

"Slightly more than the United States, about 9%..."

Han Xuanshi spoke loudly, but unexpectedly Marta picked up the phone and went out. A few minutes later, he said that the president agreed!

Guo Muzhou and Han Xuan were stunned on the spot, and they were really amused and crying about such a joking law in a small country.

In addition, several more amendments were made, and Marta agreed to the Maldives government's control over islands in terms of security, economy and transportation.

After looking at the revised contract, Han Xuan felt something was wrong.

How can you be able to arrange police independently, open banks, and formulate legal customs on islands? How can this be the same as a small independent country? (To be continued.)
