"boom!"

Andy, who had just stepped out of the cabin, glanced back and was holding out a little assistant with a black umbrella. He couldn't help looking up at the gloomy London sky. The drizzle of the rain was annoying, and the cold wind was blowing the windbreaker hunting.

London, which has entered a long 'gray' winter, is undoubtedly the most luxurious bright sunshine.

"This **** weather is really annoying!"

Andy sat in the car, watching the rain dripping from the window, frowning.

"London is very short in autumn. It should be regarded as the early winter of Britain, and the rain and snow will increase. However, the forecast indicates that the rain will stop." The assistant took out a British number mobile phone from the bag and turned it on. Looking at the text messages and emails on the mobile phone of the Devil King explained.

"Boss, arrive in half an hour." The little assistant picked up the phone and dialed out. After the call was connected, he hanged up after speaking briefly.

"Filmore Garden is ready."

Andy nodded. When he first came to London in September last year, he let his think tank use the offshore company under his name to find suitable properties in London. Although he did not know much about the situation in Britain in the previous life, after all Wang Yiyi has read the news of buying tens of millions of pounds in London, so he knows that after the financial crisis, the real estate market in London was blown up.

Andy will never let go of the rich business, not to mention London has a hidden "advantage" and "tax haven".

Countless luxury homes are sold each year in London, but few real-name registered owners, most of them bought in the name of companies, and most of them are registered in well-known tax-free areas. Many people do not know that the biggest "player" in the global free zone offshore system is not Switzerland or the Cayman Islands, but the United Kingdom.

Under British law, holding a property, especially when generating capital gains due to a transfer of ownership, is subject to various taxes, but properties held by offshore companies are often exempt.

In this way, inheritance tax can be avoided by this means. Not only do you not have to pay British tax, you also have the opportunity to evade tracing from your tax or judicial department.

It is an open secret in London's luxury market to covert warehouses in the name of offshore companies. Because there is no worry about paying taxes, housing prices will be repeatedly raised. While most of the real estate market is still sluggish, it's not surprising that London has repeatedly "his".

The offshore company that Andy specifically set up to buy real estate in London now has six luxury homes over 20 million pounds in hand, and has also prepared a big boss for 60 million pounds at the time to buy the famous London rich man Ken A women's college prep school in Hinton.

A major renovation of 10 million pounds began in October last year. After 12 months of luxury renovations, it is now a building with 10 bedrooms, an indoor pool, a gym, a sauna, a private cinema and a security guard. Supermansion with tight bomb-proof emergency refuge room.

To be honest, at the beginning, Andy learned through a briefing that his men bought a beautiful school building with a very beautiful blue roof and white wall, but he was a little surprised, but it didn't matter. He wanted to cover it anyway. One click, and then sold it at a high price.

But in February of this year, he received a phone call from his wife, Yelena, the wife of Ukraine's second richest man, Pinchuk, who offered an 80 million pounds bid to buy the mansion that was being renovated to buy the Philemon Garden mansion Know the madness of house price increases in London.

After he saw the decoration renderings, he did not hesitate to let the other party reject the offer. After all, he also needed a real foothold in London. This Victorian-style Fillmore Garden was undoubtedly his Fancy it.

Andy tried everything to avoid taxes in the United States, let alone pay taxes to the British. His branch on the Financial Street in London earned him a lot of pounds. If he returned to the United States, he would be almost The US government took half of it, and he would only do it unless he was crazy. Since the British government has opened the door to tax avoidance, how could Andy miss it!

Andy's convoy drove quickly into Kensington, and soon arrived at its destination. Surrounded by tall yellow trees due to winter, a five-story main building and a horizontal landscape resemble open arms. A super-mansion with a dark blue roof and white walls appeared in front of him.

Andy stepped into the house under the umbrella of the little assistant and was welcomed by the four maids. The magnificent entrance hall was extremely luxuriously decorated and divided into three directions leading to the three main rooms.

The warm-colored decoration style is full of British atmosphere. There is an amazing bay window in the living room, which can clearly see the beautiful bay. The living room leads to a formal dining room and garden. The dining room has a huge south-facing window that fills the room with natural light.

"Sir, the roof is a viewing platform, but the weather today is too bad ..."

Andy stood in front of the glass sliding door and looked at the spacious viewing platform. He nodded with a smile when he heard the words of the maid. The pedestrian walked down the stairs through the spiral stairs. , Gym, private theater, temperature-controlled wine storage room, stores more than 1,000 bottles of vintage wine.

After strolling around, Andy can be said to be very satisfied with the converted mansion of this school. Although there are some gaps compared to his flower of Lisse, this does not prevent Andy from being satisfied with the mansion. After all, the location of the mansion is in the center of London. When the door is closed, it is a private courtyard. When you open the door, it is a bustling city. In two steps, you will reach the top shopping malls, theaters and various bars. "It's very attractive to many people.

There is a saying in the real estate industry that the three main points of real estate are "location! Location! Location!" And London's "location" in the world map has become an unparalleled "golden spot" in the eyes of many people.

Andy's mansion is located in Kensington Street, which is known as the "Royal Block", so this mansion has been continuously appreciated since the moment it was bought.

The four maids in the mansion were all assigned by Andy a little housekeeper George, long ago, although more professionally trained maids can be found in Kensington, but in terms of trust, Andy believes in small After being sent by George, after all, these maids were constantly instilled with various rules against Xing when they were trained, unlike the popular version trained by the British housekeeper school. Although professional, they were too professional. Having a non-disclosure agreement will inevitably lead to unruly people.
