Happy Tycoon
Chapter 332: Be neighbors with the richest man
The small town of Pisuri did not disappoint Yang Jing and Gege.
This is a small town close to the land of Taoyuan. It is alone between two hills at an altitude of more than 100 meters. A small alluvial plain with a length of more than 800 meters and a width of more than 500 meters has emerged from the location of Haikou. The small town of Pisuri is located on this small alluvial plain.
There are mountains on both sides of the town. To the north is a valley with a width of two hundred meters to connect with the outside world. In this valley, there is not only the Saint-Pierre River but also a road leading to the outside world. And to the south of the town, there is the blue and rippling, vast and boundless Mediterranean Sea.
When I came to the small town, Yang Jing learned that the town said there were a thousand people, but in fact, the permanent population is about 400 people, and the rest of the population are rich people.
The houses in the small town are very distinctive. The biggest feature is that almost every house has a small swimming pool. This is really hard to see in other places, and it also shows how wealthy the residents of this small town are.
But walking on the quiet small road in the small town, Yang Jing found that this small town was really amazing. Walking along the way, he saw no fewer than a hundred luxury holiday villas. These villas just took out one. Come, the value will be millions of dollars.
But there is also a strange phenomenon here, that is, many luxury holiday villas have "for sale" signs hanging on the gates.
"What's the matter? Why do so many villas have to be sold?" Yang Jing asked Lin Dan next to him.
"Ah, isn't this all caused by the Greek debt crisis? Most people in Nancy are Greeks. Although it has nothing to do with the current Greece, you must also know the influence of the Greek debt crisis. Cyprus. Although it is a developed country, it also belongs to a southern European country. Therefore, the impact of the Greek debt crisis in the past few years has been relatively large, and now Cyprus has gradually become the first choice for many wealthy immigrants in the world. These billionaires want to immigrate to Cyprus. It’s very simple. It only needs to spend more than 0 million Cypriot pounds, which is about 2.4 million US dollars. You can obtain citizenship by buying a property here, and then you can obtain an EU passport in half a year. Just like the small town of Pissouri, in fact, It is an immigrant town, where 60% of the villas are purchased by immigrants."
"In the past two years, the consequences of the Greek debt crisis in Cyprus have begun to be revealed, so some wealthy people are preparing to sell their properties. Moreover, those who immigrate to Cyprus through the purchase of houses only need to keep one set of properties after three years. Real estate worth more than 300,000 euros, other real estate can be sold. Like these villas here, those rich people can live here for half a month in a year is very good, so in the current situation, those who pass Most of the wealthy immigrants began to sell their real estate. This is the situation in the small town of Pissouri."
Grid smiled and said: "Then the Cypriot authorities are not shooting themselves in the foot? Do they play a house? You can buy a house with money and you can sell it in three years. This is not good for Nansai's economy. If it catches up with a large number of people. If people sell houses at the same time, it is easy to trigger a real estate crisis in Nansai."
Yang Jing shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be a big problem. Nansai's current economic pillars are financial services, banking and tourism. Real estate accounts for a small proportion of Nansai's economy. Moreover, these villas are sold, and there are receivers behind them. , For example, we..."
Grid covered her mouth and laughed.
Lin Dan looked completely defeated.
Yang Jing asked: "Then how are the prices of these houses?"
Lin Dan said: "Brother Yang, you just said that you are the pickers. Now Cyprus is very attractive to wealthy foreigners, especially wealthy immigrants from China and Russia, so these houses don’t have to worry about selling at all. In terms of price, it’s hard to be cheap. These villas are all worth more than US$2.4 million. As long as you buy such a villa, you can immediately have Cypriot citizenship."
Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and was about to say something. Grid next to him pointed to a three-story villa in surprise and said, "God, this villa is really beautiful."
Yang Jing looked in the direction that Grid pointed, and sure enough, about fifty or sixty meters in front of his left, there was a separate villa. The area of this villa alone was several times larger than that of other villas. Because the elevation of this villa is much lower than where Yang Jing and the others are standing, the general situation of the villa can be vaguely seen through the lush canopy.
This villa occupies a large area. Most other villas in the town occupies an area of about 600 to 700 square meters, and this villa covers an area of more than 3,000 square meters. The length is only a rough estimate. Over sixty meters.
And in the courtyard of this villa, there is a huge swimming pool. The length of the swimming pool in other holiday villas is about 20 to 30 meters, and this irregular swimming pool is more than 50 meters long, and the widest point is also 30 meters.
Because of the terrain of Cyprus and the control of the best plains in the north by the Turkish people, there are few places suitable for the establishment of towns within the control of South Cyprus. This has also led to very high land prices in the towns of South Cyprus.
is like the small town of Pissouri. It is just an alluvial plain at the mouth of an estuary, and the area is small and pitiful, but such a small flat place was also used by the Nansai people to build such a small town.
Similarly, in this small town, villas worth millions of dollars can be seen everywhere, but these villas do not occupy a large area, because it is not an inch of money here, and it is estimated that it is not much difference.
But the villa in front of me occupies such a large piece of land very luxuriously, which is really shocking. The area occupied by this villa alone is enough to build five or six holiday villas.
Lin Dan pulled out a pile of information from his bag, and after checking it, he said, "Brother Yang, sister-in-law, you two don't think about the villa in front of you. If the information is correct, this villa is the richest man in Cyprus, John Frey. A holiday villa in Derrickson. The value of this villa is about thirty million euros..."
Grid heard this price, not only stuck out his tongue. This price is about to catch up with the villas in some high-end villa districts in Yanjing. But where is this place? It's just a small town, and it can't be compared with Da Yenching anyway. But this villa is so valuable.
Yang Jing asked a little surprised: "John Frederickson? That world ship king who immigrated to Cyprus from Norway?"
Lin Dan nodded and said, "Yes, that's the guy. The biggest ship king in the world at present."
Yang Jing shook his head speechlessly and said: "Even this guy has immigrated to Cyprus?"
Lin Dan said: “It’s not okay if you don’t emigrate. Norway’s taxes are terrible, and it ranks fourth in the world. John Frederickson was a Norwegian before, and his net worth of up to 2 billion US dollars made it impossible for him to live in Norway anymore. Keep staying, don’t forget, he is engaged in the ancient shipping industry. There are not many ways to avoid taxes in this industry. As for his net worth, if he stays in Norway, nearly half of the property has to be handed over. The Norwegian government."
Yang Jing knows that Lin Dan’s remarks are definitely not alarmist. Norway’s taxes are very high. The United States, known as the “land of ten thousand taxes”, is nothing compared to Norway. 45% of Norwegian fiscal revenue comes from taxation, and the proportion of domestic taxes levied is scary.
Grid obviously knew this person, and asked Yang Jing in a low voice: "Is this John Frederick the Norwegian ship king who made a fortune and risen in the Iran-Iraq War? Unexpectedly, now even he has immigrated to Cyprus. ."
Yang Jing did not speak, and Lin Dan explained to the side: "Sister-in-law is the ship king. The rise of this guy is similar to that of the legendary American Mark Rich, except that John Frederick is not as good as Mark Rich. He was greedy, so he could eventually become the world’s ship king, and Mark Rich became a criminal wanted by the United States for five crimes including treason. Although Mark Rich was the president of the United States in 200 years by President Clinton. Was pardoned on the last day~lightnovelpub.net~ But since being wanted, Mark Rich never returned to the United States and eventually died of illness in Lucerne, Switzerland. Oh, yes, Glencore’s predecessor is Mark Li The Rich Fund created by Qi."
Yang Jing added: “John Frederick’s father was an electric welder at the Oslo shipyard. He dropped out of high school at the age of sixteen and worked as a broker for a Norwegian shipping company. This guy is very courageous. Da, when he was 27 years old, the Iran-Iraq War broke out. At that time, no one dared to go to the Persian Gulf to transport oil, so he dared. In the end, he made the first pot of gold in his life by transporting oil from the Persian Gulf during the Iran-Iraq War. , From then on, it was out of control."
"Until now, the world's ship king controls a $2 billion shipping empire, with nearly 50 oil tankers, LNG carriers, deep-sea drilling platforms, dry bulk carriers, and other ever-changing ocean-related assets. Collection. Frederickson was once known as the'modern version of Onassis', but now he is worth twice that of his Greek predecessors. In the industry, the Norwegian tycoon has a reputation as a'sea wolf' and a'pirate king'. nickname!"
Yang Jing shook his head and said: "I really didn't expect the Norwegian ship king to become the Cyprus ship king now."
Gege smiled: "Then if we buy a villa here, wouldn't we become neighbors with the richest man and boat king in Cyprus?"
Yang Jing smiled and nodded and said: "If you are willing to be a neighbor with the richest man, we can do this!"
