The Aboriginal people took out five blue crabs from the bucket.
Five blue crabs took up most of the bucket. They were strung together with a rope and handed to Chen Mo.
There was an oversized crab that was hard to catch with one hand. The other two were estimated to be about a pound, and the remaining two were about half a pound in size.
Chen Mo picked it up and weighed it: "How much does it cost?"
"No need." The native smiled and shook his head.
"How is this possible? It's not easy for you to catch these crabs." Chen Mo didn't know the approximate price of these crabs. He took out his wallet, counted six 50-dollar bills and handed them to the other party: "Are these enough?"
"My name is Paralejo, and I am your employee...it doesn't cost any money. These blue crabs are not expensive either..." The aboriginal people backed away quickly, with a smile on their face as if they were crying: "Boss, I was wrong, I shouldn't have secretly
Come catch your crabs.”
Chen Mo was slightly startled: "Oh, be careful..." Paralejo tripped on a stone while backing up and almost fell down, but Chen Mo quickly grabbed him with his quick hands.
"Is everything okay?"
"It's okay, thank you boss."
"How much would it cost to sell these crabs?"
"The big one is about 30 US dollars per pound (the one that weighs 2 to 3 pounds), the small one is about 23 US dollars. The smaller one is about 15 US dollars. Boss, it's nothing, I'm going back first." Paralejo
As he said that, he wanted to leave.
This man, Chen Mo smiled silently: "Wait a minute..." Seeing that he refused to accept the money, Chen Mo put his wallet away: "Are you on night shift?"
"Yes." Paralejo smiled and nodded.
The entire southern part of the oasis, including the coastline and the 1 kilometer sea area in front of the coastline, is the private property of the boss. Although the South Point Park is still open, it will be closed for unknown reasons...
He is a technician at the South Island Wind Power Station, and the power station also belongs to the boss. He is picking up seafood on the boss's property, and I don't know... Paralejo is a little uneasy.
"It's still early. Can you tell me about some delicious seafood that you can pick up on the beach?" Chen Mo said, also very curious about catching the sea.
"Oh... there are a lot of seafood that can be picked up, including shells. The more common ones are golden scallops..." Chen Mo couldn't understand some of the local names Paralejo said. He understood the golden scallops, so he showed them.
The goods received in the bucket include Kui clams (hairy clams), white clams, and red shells, some sea melon seed-like shells... In addition, there are pointed snails as big as little fingers, dirty-looking girl snails (bao snails, peach blossoms)
Colorful, it seems to be called Peach Blossom Snail, it is almost impossible to look directly at it), and there is also a very big pulse snail...
After chatting with Paralejo for a while, the sun climbed to the top of his head. Chen Mo picked up the crab and went back to the car. Paralejo drove a four-wheel drive off-road, and the two of them walked one behind the other, along the bumpy dirt road, towards the south corner.
Drive over to the park...
This is only suitable for off-road vehicles, preferably modified off-road vehicles. It is actually the most suitable for four-wheel drive off-road vehicles.
Chen Mo was driving the Ford Raptor pickup truck, and it was a bit difficult to bump around...
When he got home, Chen Xiao had already cooked the meal and was editing the video in the living room: "Brother."
Chen Mo lifted the big blue crab on his hand and said, "Look, it's a super big blue crab."
Chen Xiao's eyes lit up: "I can make another food video. Where did you buy it?"
"It was given by an aboriginal employee in Paya Bay." It's funny to say that there are only 5 employees in Lovely Ranch now, and Chen Mo hasn't recognized him yet.
Chen Mo has seen Paralejo. He visited a wind power station a few days ago. Paralejo was wearing work clothes at that time. Today, Paralejo is wearing a hat...
He was just an ordinary employee and he was from Polynesia. He took a look at it a few days ago and didn't pay much attention to it at the time. It's normal that he doesn't remember it now.
Chen Mo opened the refrigerator, took out some ice cubes, froze the crabs, and then went to get some hot water.
"Are you going to steam it?" Chen Xiao's cheek twitched slightly.
"Such a big blue crab is best steamed. These crabs are caught in clean waters and steamed directly to taste the original flavor."
Steamed live crab...
"You are too cruel, you can't kill him and then steam him."
"Whether you want to eat it or not, why did you become so coy?" Waiting for the water to grill, put down the grid, threw the frozen crabs in the ice water directly, and then started to make the sauce.
Soy sauce, vinegar, mix with horseradish, add some grated ginger, and it's done.
Chen Xiao quickly brought the camera and started shooting...
"When did the camera arrive?" Chen Mo asked.
"In the morning, after you go out."
"Has my fishing rod been delivered?"
"It's been delivered. It's on the cabinet in the living room." Chen Xiao said and started shooting: "The delicacy we made today is blue crab. We are now waiting patiently..."
Chen Mo returned to the living room and played with the fishing rods he purchased online.
Chen Mo bought 5 fishing rods at one time, including two long rods for cliff fishing, a 6-meter rod for recreational fishing, and two sea rods for boat use.
I bought a large ranch on the island, which is close to the coast and has a fishing resort called South Point Park. If I don’t fish here and enjoy life, I would be really sorry for myself.
Chen Xiao only recorded the beginning of a video in the kitchen, turned off the camera and came out: "Brother, how much tax did you pay this year."
"Almost 250 million." Chen Mo raised his head and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Why is this so?"
"That's it..." Chen Mo almost vomited blood. With only this amount of US$250 million, he could buy a super luxury yacht.
"If your income this year is not 3 to 4 billion, why did you pay 250 million US dollars and how did you operate it?"
"You don't have to file taxes, so why bother asking?"
Chen Xiao chuckled and said, "Curious."
Chen Xiao and Chen Chen are only temporarily green, and have never applied for a formal green card. The spot gold is London gold, and they use HSBC bank accounts to operate. The profitable funds are still in HSBC...
"I only reported a profit of US$877 million. The remaining money is still options that have not been settled..." Options, a bank bond financial product of US$3.3 billion.
US$877 million, reported as net profit.
The remaining US$3.3 billion contains principal, expected profits, and a hidden contract. The final settlement of US$3.3 billion will be done in three years, so there is no need to declare taxes now...
Tax avoidance is also risky.
This 3.3 billion tax avoidance is not much different from temporary tax evasion. For a 3.3 billion tax avoidance project, ordinary accounting firms really can't handle it, and Chen Mo didn't dare to leave it to them.
If he files taxes in full this year, Chen Mo will have to pay at least US$1 billion.
Exchange all 3.3 billion into options, that is, bond financial products, with a holding period of 3 years. The U.S. tax law stipulates that if you hold stocks or options for more than one year for a long time, you do not need to pay capital gains tax. You can simply operate it again after three years
, 3.3 billion U.S. dollars, the tax that needs to be paid is only about 450 million U.S. dollars...
And the 3.3 billion still has 5% interest in the bank.
Why buy such bank options?
Why should you go to a bank to borrow money if you have money...
And why do we need to declare 877 million in one go? Even the money to pay taxes has to be borrowed from a bank, why not leave some more money...
It's a good deal to borrow money.
Chen Mo now owes the bank US$253.6 million, and will borrow another US$200 million from the bank. This means that he owes the bank US$453.6 million, and the interest is 6.2%.
These are the funds borrowed from banks after tax returns, which are used to invest in pastures and expand pasture production scale.
The bank borrowings are well documented, particularly $243.6 million, which was used to pay this year's income taxes.
Next year, Valley Ranch, or Chen Mo, will definitely not have a profit of hundreds of millions of dollars. Then it will be able to declare a loss next year...
Everyone knows who Trump is.
Trump declared a loss of more than $900 million on his 1995 personal income tax return, which would allow him to avoid paying taxes on $50 million in annual income for the next 18 years.
As long as they are not super rich, most wealthy people buy options and stocks with their money. When they need money, they borrow it from the bank...
Especially if you suddenly earn a large amount of money in a certain year, you must deal with this income in advance. Otherwise, you will be bitten off a large piece of meat by the time the tax bureau comes to your door.
Using the option income to offset the loan interest, Chen Mo's loan interest is only 1.2%. Although the large funds have been frozen, for Chen Mo who just wants to securely hold on to his wealth, this approach is the simplest.
