British 1986
Chapter 3 Someone wants to pick peaches?
Except for those messy things during his school days, everything else in his life made him extremely satisfied!
Allen had always imagined life as an adult.
An An is content to be an old man, transformed into a playboy, happily lying on the aristocratic family of the Hill family, being a blood-sucking moth, and living a life of sin happily!
Although the inheritance right to the earldom belongs to his eldest brother and not to him, there is a very interesting phenomenon in Daying.
In many traditional high-end aristocratic families, the head of the family holds more than one aristocratic title.
When holding multiple titles, in addition to the eldest son inheriting the most important title, other titles can be passed on to other legitimate descendants according to the father's wishes.
This legal status refers to the offspring of a legal wife with a marriage certificate, and the certificate must be obtained first and then married. It doesn't matter if the order is wrong!
As for illegitimate children who want to inherit the title? Don't even think about it.
And Allen's father not only has the title of earl, but also the title of viscount.
His title will belong to Allen from now on, and he only has two children. This viscount is his compensation for Allen's lack of care.
But with a car accident, everything is gone now!
Now, Allen, who fantasizes about living his whole life, was affected by a car accident and returned to before liberation.
I want to nibble on my old age, but the person who is nibbled on is just gone.
A beautiful life has just begun. Allen, who has only experienced a decadent life for a few short years, has now become the only remaining legal heir of the Hill family and a quasi-count.
Normally speaking, after the old earl passes away and leaves the family property to his descendants, besides being sad, the rest should be happy.
Moreover, the expected viscount was obtained, and even the earl who exceeded expectations was obtained.
But in addition to leaving him a large "family fortune", Allen's father also left him several huge foreign debts and other troubles, as well as the extremely harsh and damn inheritance tax for nobles!
Theoretically speaking, the Hill family's family business is still very strong. Although Allen has not learned about it in detail, at the dinner table, he heard his father and eldest brother talk about how much income the family factory will make this year. Allen Still impressed.
If his family hadn't been relatively well-off, the old count wouldn't have been so coquettish as to buy a few Bentleys to replace several old cars that had been driven for nearly ten years.
In the past few years, policies have been changing, and the environment in Britain has become increasingly unfriendly to the nobility. The old earl sold some land and several manors in exchange for a large amount of cash, which he invested in the stock market.
In Britain, from the Queen to the common people, there are two economic activities that most people cannot do without - stocks and gambling.
For a big boss, stocks.
Every day I listen to other people making whatever decisions they want in the stock market and earn a lot of wealth.
But it was finally time for the old count to take action himself.
The performance of the young and powerful old count in the stock market can only be described by one idiom - coming and going like the wind.
This coming and going like wind, to be precise, does not describe the heroic appearance of the old count himself, but accurately describes the wealth in his hands.
Come and go quickly, come and go like the wind!
These things all happened in the past few years. When Allen was serving abroad, the old earl only sent him a letter home every quarter. The content of the letter was often very short. Occasionally, he said some words of concern and the situation at home. Rarely mentioned.
Butler Hu Te told him most of it.
Normally, when the old Earl was still here, these "minor" economic problems would not be a big deal to the Hill family if they just gritted their teeth and repaired them.
But now something suddenly happened at home, and Allen has not yet completely taken over the family business.
And the first thing he has to face is Britain's malicious, huge inheritance tax against the nobles!
If he wants to inherit the Hill family business, Allen will first have to pay a large amount of inheritance tax.
He can now sell his property and pay taxes, but the inheritance tax alone has already taken up nearly half of his property.
Although most nobles have some way to avoid inheritance tax, these are based on normal circumstances. The old earl is now in the prime of life, so why is there any need to do these things?
As for what foundations and trusts? Hahaha.
In a financial country like Great Britain, the aristocrats put all their property in foundations and trusts. What is the difference between this and seeking death?
Now, by accident.
And at this critical moment, if you want to sell those valuable properties at normal market prices now, you don't even have to think about it!
No one is a fool. When everyone knows that you are short of money and have to sell certain industries at a low price to raise funds, how can you live up to the word capitalist if you don't suck a mouthful of blood and swallow a mouthful of meat?
Allen can't afford to wait, but others can!
The longer you delay, the lower the price of some things will be. This is a dead end!
He can't sell off all his property and pay the inheritance tax and have nothing left, right?
Taking over a shabby family with only servants and titles?
Thinking of this, Allen's eyes even turned red.
As a young man who was born under the red flag and grew up under the red flag, when had he ever encountered such a thing? !
He came to Great Britain to enjoy life!
This is not a charity for these capitalists.
In his previous life, Allen was just an ordinary studio veteran who was involved in the entertainment industry.
I have worked as an assistant director, as a director's assistant, as well as in photography, scene notes, set management, lighting, and so on.
However, it is not the same.
Due to his lack of fame, he didn't have any investors looking for him to invest in any large-scale film and television projects. The largest film and television project he ever led was an online drama with an investment of "up to" 600,000 yuan.
With his experience and ability, how should he deal with the affairs he faces next?
He is now a child without a father, and he can only rely on himself for everything.
Could he still be allowed to take out the love letters he had received over the years, which Butler Hu Te had kept for him, and use them as scrap paper to sell them as scraps to raise funds?
Tons of love letters may seem like a lot, but they are a drop in the bucket when it comes to the huge inheritance tax!
And for a man who is about to become an earl, he pays inheritance tax by selling a large number of love letters.
If this spreads out, how will Allen live in the future?
The Hill family will be completely disgraced by him!
Hu Te drove the car attentively, maintaining a speed of 40 miles. He looked at the rearview mirror from the corner of his eye, and saw the second young master's eyes in the mirror were slightly red.
Seeing the second young master's appearance, Hu Te thought that the second young master was looking for things and missing people. He saw the car that the old earl often used and thought of the late old earl.
Hu Te's nose was slightly sour, and he said with some sadness: "Second Young Master, please express my condolences. The count's funeral affairs have been taken care of, that is."
"???"
When he first heard the butler's advice, Allen didn't pay much attention to it, but what happened later
Already done?
Fuck?
No matter where you are, no matter what the customs are, is there any reason why the father's funeral affairs have been taken care of before his son comes back?
In other words, everything is settled? Then the reason why the housekeeper asked him to come back was to come back to take care of the funeral arrangements. What the hell, dad's funeral arrangements have already been taken care of before he comes back?
Is it some bastard son of a bitch who wants to seize his family property through special means?
Although faced with such difficulties, they are not unacceptable. At this moment, Allen's face that was different from ordinary people showed a violent look.
"Hu Te, that's not what you said on the phone!"
Seeing the angry look on Allen's face, Butler Hu Te was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that the second young master had misunderstood!
You can't publish more in the new book issue. I originally planned to publish two chapters, but think about it, what's the point of publishing two chapters on the first day of publishing?
This is not my style!
Add a chapter!
but
Results are important, and process is important!
Dear readers, please forgive me!
I still have to work around for a month, so I can slowly add some recommendations and add them to my favorites. From now on, I can only update twice a day, sorry!
It’s not that you can’t add new books, it’s that new books are added too quickly, and the time to retain new books is too short. I’m a newbie, so my grades will definitely improve.
so!
I’ll make a point first, please be considerate, thank you!
