Alaska Gold Rush

95 The Rich Man

Lesnar drove the newly purchased Ford F-150 straight to Turnergan Bay, where Chen Ruobai rented a villa.It's time to attend Chen Ruobai's moving party, and there is a little something worth looking forward to about this matter.

Looking carefully at the two-story villa in front of him, Lesnar was still a little envious.He is currently inspecting the house, and if nothing else happens, he is the same as Devi and Abigail, choosing a single-family house in a fairly good middle-class community.

Parking the car on the side of the road, Lesnar rang the doorbell and waved to the video doorbell.

Carrying a box of macarons, Lesnar entered the villa.Although the lawn is now covered with a layer of snow, and there is also a layer of ice and fallen leaves in the swimming pool, but looking at this courtyard with more than [-] square meters, Lesnar is even more envious.

Chen Ruobai stood barefoot at the door and said loudly, "Don't look, this is not my house, I just signed a two-year rental contract, this is just my temporary residence!"

Lesnar raised his middle finger and said angrily, "I know this villa has an attached pier. You chose Turnagain Bay to go to sea smoothly in the future!"

Anchorage itself lacks beaches and has vast, unpredictable tidal mudflats.But Turnergan Bay, even if it is one of the few better piers, has a lot of boats here.

"The good thing about being a bachelor is that you come early." Chen Ruobai took out the box and immediately disliked it, "Did you buy it casually?"

Looking at the house, Lesnar said, "The floor heating is good, and my house should be remodeled in the same way."

"The cost of electricity in Alaska is not low. I remember that the monthly electricity bill of an ordinary household is more than two hundred dollars." Chen Ruobai pointed to the house and said, "My monthly electricity bill here is more than eight hundred dollars. I have done Get ready to pay the bill."

Lesnar pointed to the living room and asked, "Can I visit?"

"Of course, the living room and entertainment room are together, and the usable area exceeds [-] square meters." Chen Ruobai said proudly, "There is an open kitchen and dining room, [-] square meters. I bought a good set of home entertainment equipment, and I can listen to music , watching movies, playing games, and there is a pool table over there, but it’s a pity that I live here alone.”

Lesnar pointed to the second floor and asked, "How many rooms?"

"There are two rooms on the second floor, a study room, and two and a half bathrooms." Chen Ruobai joked, "I didn't understand why some villas had half bathrooms before, but now I understand that the wet and dry areas are separated here. There are two bathrooms on the first floor, and A guest room."

Lesnar said sourly, "You live alone in a house with an indoor area of ​​more than [-] square meters, wouldn't you be afraid?"

Chen Ruobai said mysteriously, "I just went to the bar the day before yesterday, and I managed to get that girl to leave. You also know that some girls are very realistic, and she might want to develop me into a long-term meal ticket."

"You have the potential to become a long-term meal ticket. You are a rich person." Lesnar said more seriously, "You need to learn to be a rich person now, and there will be some girls who want to move in. When you are doing business Check Umbrellas too, those girls will deliberately get pregnant for alimony. They don't love you, they just want to use your baby to get thousands, tens of thousands of dollars a month in support."

Chen Ruobai had heard of this kind of thing, but had never experienced it. He was not a rich man before, so he did not receive such treatment.

Thinking of something, Lesnar gossiped and asked, "When you moved, did the party company leave you a business card?"

Chen Ruobai immediately beamed with joy, and began to gossip happily, "You never imagined how wonderful the life of a rich man would be! After I rented this house, I received a business card immediately. They told me that if I wanted to hold a party, they would There will be drinks, drinks, and a lot of young girls will come, just like those rich guys' parties in movies!"

"I'm not surprised at all, it's normal." Lesnar said with a sour tone, "Many of those young girls like material things. If they can meet rich people at high-end parties, their lives can be improved." Guaranteed. Even if you don’t find a sugar daddy, you can still eat good snacks and drink delicious champagne. All they need to pay is makeup and low-cut clothes, which can be reused for the next party.”

Chen Ruobai continued to say cheerfully, "Since I have money, the bank has contacted me more, my credit card has also been upgraded, I now have an exclusive manager, and many investment consultants and stockbrokers contact me. But I don't understand that, I need to be cautious, I'm not used to being a rich man yet."

This is also true, some time ago he was busy panning for gold, Chen Ruobai had no time to take care of other things.

But now that I am free, I have discovered a lot of interesting things, and my life is completely different from when I was at the bottom of society.

However, Chen Ruobai also knew very well that he was a nouveau riche, and he didn't have much background and ability.So sometimes he will be a little more conservative. He has indeed made some money, but it does not mean that his money comes easily, and he needs to think carefully.

Lesnar was very envious, but he still said, "My credit card has also been upgraded, and I have also received a lot of self-recommendations from accountants and lawyers. I used to only receive calls from cheap products, but now the grade has been upgraded."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They can be regarded as "crossing classes" now, and their lives will naturally undergo some changes.

While the two were chatting, the doorbell rang, Chen Ruobai looked and saw that Montgomery had come.

Montgomery complained as soon as he came in, "I never thought that there are so many police officers in Alaska. I suspect they are just patrolling these rich neighborhoods."

"I don't think it's strange, don't talk about it here, even Javier's community can see police patrolling." Lesnar seemed to be cynical, "Very few people occupy a lot of wealth in this society, the police It will protect them too. Those rich people will donate, but they will not pay taxes."

Chen Ruobai said, "I may arrange a donation, which can reduce some taxes. The most important thing is that I can get some benefits, and I can get more convenient approval when I start mining next year."

Donations are tax-deductible, but Chen Ruobai obviously didn't intend to donate to some people on social relief.He will donate to the 'relevant departments', all of which are to make his next work smoother and easier.

"Look, this is a rich man." Lesnar said, "We don't have to worry about him not being able to adapt to the life of a rich man. His way of thinking changes faster. We are still studying high-end home appliances carefully. He has already I'm researching how to use money to make more money. I wouldn't be surprised if he attends a high-end reception next time."

Chen Ruobai smiled and did not speak, he also felt that some of his changes seemed very natural.

Even if some things are not familiar, some things still need to be understood and tried slowly.It's just that there are some things that Chen Ruobai has changed in an incomparable way, and he also realized that his resources and connections have changed silently.

After all, now that I have money, many things seem to go with the flow after I have money.Money is indeed not a panacea, but after having money, it does make it easier for people to do some things.

Abigail and Devi came too, looking middle-class in their new X5.

"Do you have enough funds?" Chen Ruobai couldn't help worrying, "The house you just bought, I saw that you bought a lot of home appliances and furniture, and those things are not cheap."

Devi spread his hands, looking distressed, "I thought I could pay the full amount, but now I need a loan for many things. Whether it's my house or my car, I was wrong, it's not my house and my car. The cars, they still belong to the bank. Once we don't make more money, I'm going to lose them."

It's okay to say that, those things do belong to the bank now, although Devi and the others have made some money.It's really hard for you to just want to pay the full amount in one go.

But in any case, the lives of Devi and Abigail have also changed greatly, and they can be regarded as the middle class in the eyes of some people.Their consumption and income are also slightly higher than the average middle class, that is, because the starting point is too low, so it is more difficult to do some things now.

Abigail looked around and joked, "Zoe's dream is to live in a house like this and have a spa while drinking champagne. You just need a phone call, and she will come here happily wearing high heels and stockings."

Chen Ruobai was not moved, so Lesnar asked, "Abby, do you think Zoe is willing to help me find an apartment?"

Abigail thought about it, not sure, "She would definitely prefer to live in Robert's house, but if there is no chance, you should be eligible to be her plan B. You should also know that it is difficult for her to find a higher class people."

Lesnar's eyeballs rolled around, but he didn't necessarily have deep feelings for Zoe.The simple thing is that Zoe has a good figure and good looks.Zoe used to not even look at Lesnar, but now it's hard to say.

After visiting Chen Ruobai's house, Dewei asked curiously, "Are you going to the west coast soon?"

"Yes, I will go to Seattle first and sign up for helicopter driving." Chen Ruobai said with a smile, "Now I have a lot of vacations, and I will also go home. I haven't been back for a long time, and it's time to reunite with my family. "

Lesnar immediately said, "I will take good care of Da Zhuang, this fat dog will like me!"

Everyone also tacitly understood that Da Zhuang, a fat dog, was quite attractive, and if he was taken out, it might also become a tool for flirting with him.Although it's winter now, it doesn't stop Lesnar from being in a good mood.

There is nothing wrong with being chic now.
