Zhao Mingyang invited Li Yanqing to visit his little cousin at noon the next day. He came back too late last night. It takes about six hours to fly from Los Angeles to New York. He was mostly on the road. Zhao Mingyang has to fly to New York in a while. , go to see Brother Xiaosa.
That's it for flying trapeze. It really feels very compact. No wonder those celebrities like to use some exercise to relieve stress. Otherwise, life would really feel too boring, just sitting on the plane every day.
My cousin's house in Luo City is located in a large flat in the business district of Luo City. This type of housing is more expensive than villas far away from the business district. The house my cousin bought for her is also three-bedroom in size and is over 150 square meters. It's very big, not to mention there is no public stall, and it also comes with a balcony of more than 20 square meters.
If you live alone, it will be very big. This is also convenient for your little cousin. A single-family house in the United States does not mean that the house is expensive. The main thing is to look at the business circle. In fact, it is basically the same as in China. Business, medical, and educational circles are all in one area. , the housing prices there are definitely very expensive.
In fact, most Americans don’t want to drive. If they could drive less and walk less, it would be in the commercial circle. However, the commercial circle is already so large and it is impossible to build a single-family villa for you. They are basically high-rise buildings. , similar to Wall Street.
This is why many elites in American TV dramas live in an apartment instead of a mansion. Of course, there are many row houses here close to the business district, but the prices are ridiculously high.
Most people still live in townhouses five kilometers away from the business circle, that is, houses about five kilometers away from the business circle. They can just drive out and the prices are much cheaper.
In fact, just like Shanghai, land near the financial center is at a premium. Outside of this range, the price gap will obviously be very large. The price of a Tomson product will be more expensive in that circle.
Garden rooms in Shencheng are expensive because they are located in this area. There are also single-family villas in Luocheng located in the central business area, but they are all sky-high. They are indeed expensive. As I said, where can I find them? Where there are many people there is no shortage of money.
The only difference between this place and Shanghai is that it is vast and sparsely populated. Single-family houses five kilometers away from Shanghai's business district are also sky-high prices, and high-rise residences are not cheap either.
Houses in commercial areas are so expensive and they are not large villas. Why are there still people in the United States willing to buy such houses?
Two words, public security, maybe you can feel it yourself. In the urban area of your city, there are many patrols and guards near the business circle. But outside this circle, some second-rate people will appear, especially in suburban areas.
The same is true here. The more business circles you are in, the better the security. It is for the whole world and people cannot see the bad side. For this reason, my little cousin's family also bought her a house here.
As for property tax, the United States is a federal country, and the property tax varies from state to state. Some are a little more than 1%, and some are 3%. This fee is not low, especially for houses with high valuations.
Zhao Mingyang was busy in the kitchen. When Li Yanqing arrived, he saw Zhao Mingyang making spicy hotpot.
He likes to eat this the most. He used to eat it when he was in school, but after eating a few here, he felt that the taste was very different from what he had eaten before.
After a busy meal, Zhao Mingyang served Malatang and said: "I went to the supermarket early in the morning to buy a soup base made of mutton bones. I went to a Chinese supermarket to buy a lot of seasonings and added them. After cooking for more than three hours, I know you I like eating this, so I asked a friend in China who makes spicy hotpot, and he gave me a recipe.
The taste may not be more authentic than the ones in China. I also prepared the condiments myself. I also bought you your favorite salt soda. I went to several Chinese supermarkets before I found the brand you like.
Come! Have a taste of my craftsmanship. I have wine here. Do you want to have a drink?" The enthusiasm on Zhao Mingyang's face made Li Yanqing feel a little creepy.
"Mingyang, you are so kind and polite to me. This always reminds me of a movie and TV series I watched when I was a child. Pan Jinlian was also so kind to Wu Dalang." Li Yanqing said straightforwardly.
Zhao Mingyang(⊙o⊙)…
"What are you thinking? I am sincere, but she is vicious. Speaking of Water Margin, have you done any research on the Three Kingdoms?" Zhao Mingyang mixed a sauce for Li Yanqing and handed it to him.
"Three Kingdoms? That was a must-read when I was in school. I especially like to read Three Kingdoms, Water Margin and Journey to the West, but I can't get into Dream of Red Mansions. I try to make myself read it, but I can't get into it after reading it for a while.
The food you made tastes really good, you can open a store now, I’m not bragging, it’s really good.” Li Yanqing said.
Did you see that knowing how to cook can not only make girls happy, but also make boys happy?
Zhao Mingyang took a bite of vegetables and talked while eating, as if he said it casually.
"Then what do you think about Wang Yun using Diao Chan?"
"The Three Kingdoms drama is a novel, let's just say that in the novel, Wang Yun, I think, he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, at least he thinks he is too. He wants to eradicate the traitorous ministers, but he uses Diao Chan to do those things, which is a bit disappointing.
Disgraceful, let’s not talk about Diao Chan’s authenticity. According to the book, we should not regard Diao Chan as a singer or an escort.
She is accurately classified as a spy. Of course, she was working for Wang Yun at the time, so she can also be called an agent. She approached Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu to collect evidence and to sow discord. She basically completed the task perfectly."
"Yes! Your analysis is right, what you said is right. Wang Yun is also a loyal and patriotic person who can sing and cry. Sometimes, we can't think of things too dirty. If we look at the problem from another angle, it may be different. I
I appreciate that about you.
Sometimes, some things require the use of extreme means, but they are not necessarily bad. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used a beauty trick to deal with the South Vietnamese country. It was just to seek peace and tranquility, and for the sake of the common people in the world.
There are also many beauty traps in modern times. We should not look at the problem from a narrow perspective. Beauty traps and honey traps may not necessarily be derogatory terms, right?
For example, if we encounter any big problems with what we are doing now or what you are doing, you and I can also risk our lives for this career and use the beauty trick in exchange for the smooth completion of the career. Let’s have a drink! There is nothing to do for our dreams.
Be afraid, have the courage to try for your dreams, and you and I can both be handsome for our dreams!" Zhao Mingyang picked up the salt soda and clinked glasses with Li Yanqing.
Li Yanqing took a sip of salt soda and said with a smile: "The beauty trap? I can't do it. It's up to you. I don't have to use it even if I want to. After all, I have nothing to do with being handsome. You can use it, so you might as well go find Gates."
daughter, in this way we will directly reach the pinnacle of mankind."
Zhao Mingyang squinted at Li Yanqing and said, "I admire your courage. Even Gates's daughter can dare to think. I'll check it out, just in case I can find clues. But, let's talk about business, you are not young.
Ah, you don’t plan to fall in love? Don’t you like women?”
"Nonsense, I'm very straightforward, okay? I just haven't met the right person, and I don't have the intention. Now I want to make a new breakthrough. I want to start a career first and then start a family." Li Yanqing said.
"Oh~ what you are saying is, is there any difference between starting a family and starting a business? It turns out that it is not the same. It is nothing more than working together and finding a partner to start a business together, and the other is starting your own business successfully and finding a partner you like.
Don't consider cost performance or cost.
But, you haven’t considered this important point. You first establish a career and then start a family. How long will it take to establish a career? Ten years? Twenty years? When you find someone you like, your father-in-law may not be much older than you.
Years old, and this body, you know, I am afraid that you will have a career and lose energy, so what do you say you are killing?
The most important thing is that you can find someone you like but who only wants your money. Isn't Wu Dalang the best example?
Yanqing, you have to be responsible for your children. Think about it, you will have children in your forties or fifties in the future. When your children are thirty, if they imitate you and marry later and have children later, is it possible that your descendants will not have grandparents to talk to?
Already?"
Li Yanqing??? What he said is right, but something feels wrong.
