My Ranch

Okay, gentlemen, congratulations, you have got a job. After looking through it, Jiang Hai hesitated, nodded to the few people in front of him, and officially accepted these people as his own staff.

After hearing Jiang Hai's words, these people's faces obviously had a hint of joy. They didn't expect to find a job so quickly, and then they simply set their salaries first.

Because Jiang Hai set the salary for Robbins-Garcia at 800 US dollars per week, so he didn't set them too low.

Burke-Dalle's salary was seven hundred and fifty dollars a month; The same is true for Te, but this is just a dead salary. If it is profitable, there will naturally be a bonus. After setting up the money, Jiang Hai and others can be regarded as relieved.

The first wave of people has been recruited, and if you want to find the winemaker and crew next, you won't be able to find them here.

According to the words of Philemon Turner, who used to be a sailor, if you want to find a sailor, you have to go to another bar. Winthrop is a real seaside town. If you want to find cowboys here, you can only find them in the song of cowboys. They arrived, but it was much easier to find a seaman. After everything was discussed, the two got into Robbins's old pickup truck and headed for Jiang Hai's manor.

Hush, this time the structure of the farm is finally established. Sitting in the car, watching the scene of continuous retreat, Jiang Hai whispered, but after hearing his words, Robbins-Garcia here laughed.

Hey, boss, your thinking is too simple. Now we just find all the people, and then we have to buy cattle. Oh, by the way, if the boss wants to raise so many cattle, he needs a lot of cattle dogs. We also need to Need to buy, there are also carts for pulling cattle, we can’t always rent them, we need too much, there are also lawn mowers, and machines for cleaning cowsheds, huh, it’s been a long time without raising them It’s a cow, now that I think about it, it’s really troublesome.” There are so many troubles in raising cattle alone, and it will be even more troublesome when it comes to raising fish, but in Jiang Hai’s view, it’s actually much easier to raise fish .

Because of his blood, he just needs to dilute it and sprinkle it on the edge of the water. He believes that it is impossible for those fry and the like to escape, and it is very likely that other big fish will be attracted, but in this case, he But there is no way to say.

As for the issue of raising cattle, he had also thought about it, directly feeding the cattle to drink his own blood? He's not that perverted.

But if the diluted blood is put on the grass, after those cows eat the grass, the effect will be discounted, but it probably won't be good, but it's just that I'm going to bleed again this time, but fortunately, It can be replenished quickly here, with a drop of blood, it can be recovered in a day, so that it will not be particularly distressed.

Do you still want to buy a dog? What kind of dog do you want to buy? Temporarily withdrawing his thoughts, Jiang Hai asked Robbins.

Oh, that's what matters! Hearing Jiang Hai's question, Robbins said with a smile.

Cattle dogs are similar to shepherd dogs, but they are somewhat different, because cattle and sheep are different. Although they have the same personality and are very gentle, cattle are too powerful and have a certain degree of aggressiveness. Therefore, cattle dogs can only choose smart large dogs. dog.

As far as the present is concerned, there are basically four breeds of cattle dogs selected by cattle farmers, Australian Cattle Dog, Belgian Cattle Dog, Appenze Cattle Dog, and German Shepherd Dog. Among them, the German Shepherd Dog is the German Shepherd An improved version of the dog.

As for the German shepherd, it is the legendary black back. The main reason for choosing cattle dogs is to choose those smart and powerful ones.

Some people said that these dogs are not as smart as Su Mu, but Su Mu's strength is too small, but he is stronger than his strength. Those large dogs such as Caucasus and Doberman are stronger, but these dogs are too stupid, but for Jiang Hai , this is not necessarily the case, after all, he has the ability to improve the IQ of these dogs, but he didn't tell others.

In addition to the dog, according to Robbins' words, the second thing is to buy a flatbed truck. The so-called flatbed truck is not the kind that is pushed by hand, but the kind of flatbed truck that hangs on the back of the pickup truck to pull cattle. For this, a large pickup truck is needed , the more horsepower the better.

There is also a need for a machine to clean the cowshed. It is conceivable that if Jiang Hai wants to buy cattle, even if it is 20,000 head, how much shit will he poop that day? If there are hundreds or thousands of heads, it can be solved manually, but what about 20,000 heads? It can’t be done in a few days by people, so we need a machine to clean these things. When the cows are released during the day, they need to be cleaned. Before the cows come back at night, they must be cleaned. This is really not the case. An easy thing to do.

Thinking about the things he still has to do, Jiang Hai has some headaches. He is very lazy and afraid of trouble, but it seems that he found a trouble for himself, and he calmed down. After all, money It's all spent, and he doesn't plan to sell this place, so he can accept this idea. After sorting out his mood, Jiang Hai suddenly remembered what Robbins said when he came here.

By the way, Robbins, when you came here, you said, I still need to file taxes? What kind of taxes should I file? I didn't make any money. Looking at Robbins, Jiang Hai asked a little strangely, hearing Jiang Hai's words , Robbins froze for a moment, then explained.

In fact, when I was in China, no matter what forum or website, there were always some beautiful people, or European people, who said every day that the living environment here in the United States is good, the air is good, the food is good, and the accommodation is good. , sleep well, work well, earn a lot, etc., and so on, it is like a paradise here, but in fact, there are a few benefits in China, which are completely incomparable here.

That is the tax policy. To pay taxes in the country, to be honest, very few people know how to pay taxes. The highest personal income tax in the country is only 20%, which seems to be a lot. One-fifth is given to the country. , but compared with the United States and Europe, it is far worse. Jiang Hai didn't come before, he didn't know, but now he came, and when he applied for a green card, he also learned about some taxes.

For example, federal tax and state tax. The state tax in Massachusetts is relatively low in the United States. Even if Jiang Hai’s future ranch is profitable and reaches the highest line, it is only a 5% tax rate, but the federal tax is high.

Even if it is calculated according to the subsidy, he is still 39.6% of the maximum amount. After deducting the subsidy, there is still about 35%. That is to say, 1% of his annual income Forty is to be handed over to the US emperor.

At the same time, they have to pay 6.2% of the social security fund, which is the retirement fund, which is also called social security money in China.

There is also 1.45% of the medical insurance money. Of course, this is also divided into files. Jiang Hai is not too clear about the details, but he knows that half of his annual income cannot reach his own pocket. That's all I can say about it.

But the question now is, has he made money yet? What does he pay? As it turned out, he was too naive.

In the United States, everything costs money. Every breath of air you breathe costs money. You really need money.

The land Jiang Hai bought has to pay property tax every year. This is regardless of whether you make money or not. Moreover, the land Jiang Hai occupies is huge, and you have to pay the most high-end real estate, which is 3.6%. Taxes, of course, are mostly grasslands and fishing grounds, but they also need to be taxed. To balance it, he has to pay 1.2% of the land use tax every year.

The price of this piece of land is 280 million U.S. dollars. If there is no accident, just paying the tax for the use of this land is 3.36 million a year, which is not counting the medical insurance required. In the future, if you get married and have children, the education expenses will be outrageously expensive. After all, the schools here are divided into public and private.

But public schools are really bad. On the contrary, private schools are much better, but at this price, they are also much better.

My dripper! Hearing what Robbins said, Jiang Hai couldn't help rubbing his temples. He felt that his head was about to explode. Why are there so many things? When I read novels before, I didn't mention that there are so many things on the side of the US Emperor?

He felt as if he had been deceived by others, and he thought everything was too good.

If I knew this, I might as well just buy a piece of woodland and drill into the mountains. He muttered in a low voice, and Jiang Hai said helplessly. When he said this, he used Chinese, so Robbins didn't understand.

But he could see that Jiang Hai's current mood didn't seem to be very good, so he closed his mouth consciously.

Life in the United States is indeed difficult. According to the news released by the United States in 2011, the income of the middle family in the United States is about 50,000 dollars a year. If this is the case, they have a small house in the suburbs. A villa, a couple, with two children, a dog, plus two cars, 50,000 dollars, after paying taxes, they may only be able to receive subsidies to live, let alone the US emperor , even in China, with 50,000 yuan a year, if you live alone, you will live very chicly, but if you live as a family, hehe, what if the children have to go to school? Hehehe... If there are old people to support, hey...

After Jiang Hai returned home, he didn't go to sleep directly. Instead, after taking a shower, he turned on the laptop he brought from China. Buying a laptop abroad is cheaper and has better performance. But the problem is that without a Chinese operating system, he can't understand it. It happened that this time when he returned to China, he brought it along with him. The computer and mobile phone are all matching. left over money.

Robbins doesn't know how much money Jiang Hai has now, in fact, only Jiang Hai knows how much money he has.

Those stones were sold for a total of 332 million US dollars, and the purchase of this manor cost a total of 280 million US dollars.

There are still 52 million US dollars left, to renovate the house, plus shopping, returning to China, etc., 2 million US dollars can be regarded as spent.
