Chapter 657: Another Christmas year

Christmas is coming again in a long-awaited way. ¥f,

This is Jiang Hai’s second Christmas at Winslow, but compared to the first Christmas, this time his Christmas is much more fun than at the beginning, at least people are much more than before. Not only is there more people around him, but there are also a lot more people in the manor.

On December 24th, Christmas Eve, according to the custom of the year, this time is also the day of holiday in all major regions of the United States.

Just like the Chinese New Year, Christmas must also be a holiday, and Christmas and Spring Festival are still connected.

At this time, the children will spend at least half a month off, and some working adults will stay for about a week.

At the time of the number, many people came to the home of Jiang Hai, the two sons of Philipmont Turner who had been there last year.

However, when I came last year, there were two pairs. But when I came this year, there was only one pair. The eldest son still came with his wife, but the younger son had already broken up. In addition, Penelope also came. However, only at the time of the number, after a look at Burke-Daller, he left, unlike the two sons of Philip, to stay here until the New Year.

At the time of the number, Jiang Hai held a party in his villa at night, saying that the party was not really right.

It is more like the annual meeting. In summing up this year, it is also looking forward to next year. Of course, the most important thing is to give the year-end award.

This year, Jiang Hai’s manor, although the fish has not yet been listed in large quantities, but the lobster, with the promotion of tourists, also earned a lot of money, within three months, Jiang Hai is not counted in the town The income, just the money he sells lobster, is about 1.35 million US dollars, of course, in addition to lobster, abalone, sea cucumber and the like are counted in it.

This 1.35 million US dollars, Jiang Hai left a million, the remaining 350,000, it was a reward for these fishermen.

Jiang Haiyi has a total of five sailors, Edward Anderson, Tang Mi-Charles, Ener-Sési, Andrew Kristian, Mullen-Rubert, each of which has a salary of 70,000 US dollars. Of course, these money are taxable, just look at their own.

When seven cheques were placed in the envelopes and sent to the hands of the seven people, the seven eyes were almost inaudible and could not be seen.

This is the real money and silver other than wages. They have done almost nothing this year, and they have already earned nearly 200,000 US dollars.

Such gains were not imaginable in the past. Those fishermen who own ships have no such high income in a year. They are more likely to repair ships, hire sailors, and pay more. High taxes are not like they are pure earned.

In this regard, they are more expecting that their income will be higher after they can start fishing in March next year.

In addition to the sailors, Jiang Hai is the most profitable here, but his ranch, the cowboys, is naturally a top priority.

Jiang Hai’s year-end award is based on total income. The fisherman only earned more than one million, and he received an integer.

But the number of pastures, there are some fierce, last year Jiang Hai sold a total of 12,459 cattle, this is a detailed record.

The average price of each cow is 142,550, and the total income is 1,7,760,300,045 US dollars. There are a lot of taxes to be paid.

The federal tax is 38.6%. In the eyes of the Chinese, George Bush is a very masculine US president, but in the United States, he has a high popularity.

It is because after he took office, he gave the American people a tax of 0.5%. In the United States, the tax is divided into five files. The lowest file is not required. After Bush took office in 2002, the annual income is different, and the tax rate is different. .

In addition to not paying, there are 27% of the pay, 30% of the pay, the annual income is more than 50,000, less than 130,000 US dollars to pay 35%, Jiang Hai's income is definitely more than 130,000 US dollars Therefore, it is necessary to pay the highest grade of 38.6%.

In addition to the 38.6% federal tax, he also needs to pay 2% social security tax, regardless of whether he will enjoy the US social security services in the future, but this money must be paid, as well as property tax, housing and automobile use tax. Of course, these are small money. The real estate tax is the same as last year. It is about 6 million US dollars. The car use tax is hundreds of thousands of lazy.

State tax in Massachusetts, 5%, local tax rate is not required to pay because there is no local tax rate.

That is to say, in April next year, the current annual income of Jiang Hai will pay 45.6% of the tax.

According to the figures from the Moses-Adams newspaper, the tax rate is about 890.97 million, plus the tax on the house, which is about 815 million, but he does not have to use the money. Paid.

Because the federal encourages the relationship between agricultural and sideline products, he has a 3.5% reduction in tax rate, plus 1.2% of the local government government subsidies, 1.5% of the local government-fish subsidies, 2% of the federal financial subsidies, and feed subsidies. In total, Jiang Hai reduced the tax rate by 8.5%. That is to say, Jiang Hai only needs to pay a tax rate of 37.1%, that is, he has to pay more than 655.89 million.

Counting the money for the house and the car, probably 600 million to less than 70 million, although still a lot, but it is not bad.

A large part of the money is going to be handed over to the Federation, and about 30% is sent back to the local state.

Massachusetts State Government is about 20%, Boston is 5 percent, and Winslow is 5 percent.

According to the mayor of Wallis, Winslow will probably receive more than 30 million of the Jiang Hai tax.

It is said that Jiang Hai has no problem with Winslow. There are 30 million tax revenues next year. This is a good thing. It’s no wonder that Mayor Wallis will be so fancy. The reason for Jiang Hai.

Of course, it is impossible for Jiang Hai to give the cowboys a bonus according to the percentage of the fishermen.

But there must be few, Jiang Haiyi has five cowboys, Robbins-Garcia, Burke-Daler, Philipmont Turner, Harriman-Fells, Bell-Lester, these five Personal income this year is more than 300,000 US dollars, and today, Jiang Hai gave them 200,000, 500,000 US dollars a year of income, before they say they think, even listen to Have not heard of it.

Robbins-Garcia They are very happy, Bell and Harriman are going crazy, especially Bell.

When he retired from the Delta, he went to be a cowboy, but he was ridiculed by many people. Although they did not dare to laugh at him, but in the town, his reputation was not too good, until he met Jiang. The sea, he only knows what is called a real cowboy.

Watching his father accept the cheque of 200,000 US dollars, here the two sons of Philipmont Turner, it is impossible to say no red eyes.

But unfortunately, there is no other place in the manor now, they can let them in, and they still regret it.

Why didn't you hold Jiang Hai's thigh last year? It’s really too bad...

In addition to cowboys and fishermen, other people Jiang Hai also gave a lot of benefits, for example, although there is no wine, but this year is also very hard Dulles Gerrard and O'Connor Murphy, wine After that, they will naturally be rewarded, but this year Jiang Hai also prepared a red envelope for them, a check of 50,000 US dollars, although not many, but also made these two people quite grateful.

Afra is naturally not too small, each person has a hundred thousand dollars, which makes these gimmicks get together and has begun to study what to buy.

Women, there is no love for beauty, especially when there is a pleasing person.

Since that night, Jiang Hai and Bernice had something that should not happen, although in the middle of the night, Jiang Hai was driven out of the room and rushed back to his room to go to sleep, but As she said, she no longer cares about the relationship between Jiang Hai and Afula. Afra is free to enter and exit Jiang Hai’s villa, and can stay here at night.

Only every night, before Jiang Hai returns to the house, Bernice will find him to go to his room, ‘talk’.

In this regard, Afra, they have nothing to say, because they do not care about these.

As the two little rich women, Xiaoya and Bernice, Jiang Hai did not fall, their money is theirs, Jiang Hai gave Jiang Hai.

Xiaoya is Jiang Hai’s chief chef here. After doing so long, there is no credit and no hard work.

Bernice is Jiang Hai's doctor here. When I have a headache, I usually come to see her.

Therefore, Jiang Hai gave them a check. After all, the relationship between the three people, some, cough, so Jiang Hai gave a million.

Bernice and Xiaoya are not welcome, Jiang Hai gave them to accept.

Azalina and Consonson-Peters, this is the bodyguard of Jiang Hai, they will naturally not fall.

Azalina received a million dollars in addition to her salary as a year-end reward, and Consonson also had one million.

But after Consonson got the money, he had some confusion because he didn't know what to do with the money.

In the past, his money was controlled by his economic man, that is, those buddies. He was only responsible for boxing.

Come here to find Jiang Hai is also to repay, now Jiang Hai gave him money, he really does not know what to do.

Usually, what I eat here in Jiang Hai is eating. When I wear it, Jiang Hai is also ready for him. No matter whether it is sports or not, it is very complete, so he I don't know what to do with money.

The only one in the villa that did not receive the money, only Darena and Marianne, who called these two little girls, although it has already been fifteen, oh, in a few days, it’s sixteen, but it doesn’t help. What? Of course, there is no money, but there are many gifts...

Happy to share the money, Jiang Hai's atmosphere of the festival is also more intense, on the 23rd they gathered together.

On the 24th, in the morning, Jiang Hai went to the forest, cut a few small trees to be the Christmas tree, and dressed up after going back. With the help of natural energy, the trees in this forest are long. They are quite fast.

It grows fast, the seeds are fast, the seeds are fast, and the forest coverage is naturally faster. When Jiang Hai cut the trees, he went to the forest for a while, but only saw the mountain lions, the otters. And the crocodile Jiang Hai did not see, it may be hibernating.

The snake is going to hibernate. Jiang Hai is very clear, but is the crocodile still hibernating? Oh, okay, just let it hibernate, I don’t see it anyway.

Although it is winter now, the mountain lions have a better family. There are countless turkeys, pheasants and hares in this forest.

Large hunters only have them, so they have something to eat, so don't worry about it.

It took a whole day to dress up the Christmas tree, and Christmas Eve came on the 24th. The origin of the three days of Christmas, Jiang Hai did not say much here, after all, it was explained last year because Jiang The sea does not believe in religion. In fact, there is no one in his villa.

So on Christmas Eve, they will not do anything like mass, that is, everyone will eat and drink together, and Christmas Eve will pass.

And this evening, Afra, they also lived in the villa of Jiang Hai, the whole villa suddenly squeezed into eight people, the total number

The second day was Christmas. When Jiang Hai walked under the Christmas tree in the morning, I found that it was full of gifts.

This is also the habit of Europeans and Americans Christmas, will give each other gifts, Jiang Hai is naturally sent by everyone, and he also received gifts from everyone in his room, Darena sent a pair of gloves, is her I personally hooked it, although it was a bit thick, but a heart.

Marianne sent a scarf, and Bernice sent a leather hat, like a domestic animation, a kind of leather hat with a bald head. This was very popular in the Northeast many years ago. Oh, the specific time is probably The time period when the king is covering the tiger...

Basically, everyone is sending these little things, because to be honest, all people are not short of money, send some precious things, some are not necessary, if you say that the most valuable thing in the delivery, is Azalina sent Something, she gave Jiang Hai an aug clip.

But it’s not the kind of clip that Jiang Hai bought, but a 30-piece magazine. You know, you can’t buy 30 rounds of magazines on the official side of the US, on the black market. Thirty rounds of magazines are much more expensive than guns.

For this gift, Jiang Hai still likes it very much. Now he goes upstairs with a gun and goes outside to play a lining.

Then everyone began to be busy, preparing for the Christmas dinner tonight, which is the same as the group dinner that was eaten during the Chinese New Year, but it is very important. Naturally, Jiang Hai’s chef, Xiaoya, deservedly became the chef of today.

No one will feel wrong about this, but when cooking, Xiaoya has been using his eyes to glare Jiang Hai... (to be continued.)
