Chapter 1199 Don't Be Too Capitalized

With Zhou Buqi's help, Liu Le has already moved, bought a high-rise apartment in Atherton, and lived in it with his three children. And contacted a nearby private school, about to start a new life.

She will serve as the director of Ziweixing Asian American Fund, and at the same time, help take care of a house of Mr. Zhou.

She knew that Boss Zhou was very rich, so she thought it was a luxurious villa.

But after looking at it, I realized that poverty limited my imagination.

Where is this villa?

Obviously a manor.

Standing outside the manor, you can't even see the house inside. Trees were planted all around, covering the houses inside.

No wonder Mr. Zhou offered her a high annual salary of 350,000 US dollars. This job is really difficult to do.

If you want to take care of such a large manor, you usually have to hire more than a dozen temporary workers to clean it up. Fortunately, there are many wealthy people in Silicon Valley, and there are many similar super-luxury houses, which have spawned a series of companies that provide services for the super-rich. Although the charges are expensive, the quality of service is good enough.

On this day, Zhou Buqi officially signed the house purchase contract.

He is the official owner of this manor.

The first thing is to change the name.

First of all, it is necessary to remove the English letters of the original manor. If the master is changed, there must be characters matching the identity of the master, which will be changed into square characters. Secondly, the name of the manor should conform to the identity, character and moral cultivation of the owner.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Buqi felt that the word "gentleman" was more suitable for him.

"A gentleman is not a weapon" can also show that Zhou Buqi is the owner of this manor.

Then it was settled, and the name was called "Gentlemen's Garden".

The total price is 68 million US dollars.

In addition to the purchase price, there is also a transaction tax. Under the arrangement of the housekeeping company, all the daily necessities have been replaced, such as bedding, curtains, slippers, bath towels, kitchen supplies and so on.

The tens of thousands of bottles of red wine stored in the underground wine cabinet and the five scooters stored in the garage are all preserved.

Wine was good.

The cars are average, a pickup, a GM, and a Ford, and the slightly better ones are an extended Lincoln and a silver-gray Bentley Flying Spur.

That night, Zhou Buqi moved in with Sun Guanran and Feng Muer.

The house was so big and empty that Sun Guanran didn't dare to wander around alone, and wanted to drag Feng Muer along. Checking from room to room, talking in whispers.

As we talked, we talked about Nicole Kidman's horror film "Small Island", which is a horror story that happened in an old villa.

So much so that the two of them didn't dare to run around, and they had to pull Zhou Buqi to accompany them no matter what they said.

"You two scare yourselves!"

Zhou Buqi was angry and funny, so he simply took the two of them on either side, walking around in the huge mansion.

"This is the life of aristocrats, right?" Sun Guanran came to a cloakroom that looked like a palace with an area of ​​more than 80 square meters. He sat in front of the dressing table, "I feel like a queen."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "You are at best a noble concubine."

Sun Guanran looked back at him and gave him a white look, "The noble concubine is the noble concubine, I am...I am the noble concubine Guan! Mu'er, what are you?"

"I……"

Feng Muer waved her hands repeatedly.

Zhou Buqi put his arms around her waist, "It's okay, think about it, no one is embarrassing you. You have also seen the situation on my side. You can think of me as an ancient emperor. There is nothing you can do about it. It's not that I want to do this, look at her, if I don't hire her, she will suffer from depression. I am saving a life than building a seven-level pagoda."

Sun Wanran snorted softly, "Don't be so smug, it wasn't you who accepted me, but I who surrendered you."

"Surrender me?" Zhou Buqi felt that he had heard the biggest joke in the world, so he was about to put on a posture and practice, and pressed the two of them together on the dressing table, "You two together, let's see how to surrender me?"

Sun Guanran jumped away giggling, "I haven't seen the room yet, let's go, Muer, ignore him, and just want to play with women every day."

It is indeed too big here, with a total area of ​​more than 3,400 square meters. In addition to the 200 square meters of the wing room, the 1200 square meters of wine cabinets, warehouses and garages on the two basement floors, the main house has a total of 2000 square meters.

Sun Guanran and Feng Muer walked in front arm in arm, Zhou Buqi followed behind them, watching from room to room.

Any room has a size of 70-80 square meters.

The luxurious master bedroom suite is even bigger, covering more than 200 square meters. In addition to the bedroom and bathroom, it is also equipped with a cloakroom, a study and a bar, a total of 5 rooms.

No matter where you go, there is only one feeling - big.

No servants, no way.

Sun Guanran came to a restaurant, and looked back at the direction of the master bedroom. It was hundreds of meters from here to the bedroom, "I usually run back and forth to pour juice."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "What do you want?"

Sun Wanran said: "Servant, isn't that how it's played in movies? There are maids in mansions, and they use English-style butlers."

Zhou Buqi was a little embarrassed, "It's easy to recruit people, but I'm afraid that the recruited people will be unreliable."

Sun Guanran gave him a strange look, "Signing a non-disclosure agreement, isn't that popular in the United States? Besides, you find a special company to take care of it. If something goes wrong, the company will go bankrupt and have to settle insurance claims. You Anyone who can think of it, people have already thought of it."

Of course Zhou Buqi knew, and sighed, "It's too capitalist."

He actually asked the housekeeping agency about this.

They have long established a global maid industry chain, serving the top rich like human trafficking. However, this is a legal and compliant business with complete procedures, mutual benefits, and everyone gets what they need.

It probably means that if you are an ordinary rich man, you can hire the existing maids in the company and sign a non-disclosure agreement, which is binding on both the maids and the housekeeping company.

If the privacy is leaked, not only the maid loses her job and pays a large sum of money, but the housekeeping company also needs to pay compensation. This is the evil of imperialism. This kind of top-level domestic service company can use legal means to do some very harsh things. Any maid who dares to leak the secret will basically end her life.

It's just the general plutocracy.

If it is the most top-notch rich man, there are even more top-level services. The housekeeping company can search for their favorite maids all over the world according to the requirements of the employers.

For example, go to some backward places, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Southeast Asia and other places to hold some beauty contests, recruit models or beauty pageants, all kinds of requirements are extremely strict.

After being selected, a job as a maid with a sky-high annual salary can be provided, and there is also the opportunity to immigrate to the United States.

Those who are unfamiliar with the place of life and go to a foreign country can be manipulated by the housekeeping company even more unscrupulously. Even if the rich man did some bad things to the maid in the mansion, he could only swallow his anger.

Especially in Central and North America, beauty contests can be held hundreds of times a year. Girls do not study since they were young. They seek teachers to receive training in diet, image, body and temperament, so that they can improve family life through beauty pageants in the future.

Zhou Buqi heard about the advice of the housekeeping agency, and said that he could tailor the material according to his requirements, such as measurements, age, nationality, appearance, leg length, eye color, hair color, whether it is complete or not, and so on. As long as there is a request, it will be done. He also said that as long as no one is killed, they can solve it. He also said that if he really killed someone, he could find a way to solve it.

In a word, money can turn ghosts.

Zhou Buqi felt that he was too kind.

Or he was too rich to accept this kind of aristocratic life for a while.

Anyway, don't worry.

Zhou Buqi doesn't live here for a long time.

Ning Yaxian said that she will be on vacation in a few months, and she came here to raise her baby. When the time comes, let her go and watch the arrangements. She is pregnant and must be taken care of by a maid.

...

The next morning, Zhou Buqi stayed in bed.

When I looked up, I saw a hyper-realistic oil painting hanging on the wall, which showed six nude girls with beautiful branches and swaying postures.

This is an authentic work, but the painting is too realistic and beautiful, but its artistic value is not high. Hanging in the bedroom, it is full of artistic atmosphere. Looking at Sun Wanran and Feng Muer beside me, and looking at the girls in the oil painting, I feel that there are four missing.

"No! No! Fall! Fall!"

Zhou Buqi was afraid that he would fall into the money trap of the capitalist society, so he quickly alerted himself secretly in his heart. It's okay to have fun, but don't indulge.

Without a strong career achievement, it is impossible to control so much wealth.

Gotta work!

He didn't need to take the initiative. When he went out to eat lunch, he received a call from David Sachs. He was a little anxious: "Mr. Zhou, I have already contacted Musk. When are you free? See you?"

Zhou Buqi smiled, "I'm a bit busy recently."

David Sachs was silent for a while, "He has been in a lot of trouble recently, and the capital chain of the two companies has been broken. If you are free, can you help?"

It seems that Musk can't stand it anymore.

Yes, the selling price of Tesla cars is far below the cost price. Selling a car loses money, and it has to continuously increase research and development funds; rocket launches are exploding repeatedly, and investors are desperate.

At this moment, Americans don't want to go crazy with this lunatic anymore, so they can only find foreign fools to take over. Or wait for the major venture capital funds to survive the current crisis before trying to contribute money to him.

Zhou Buqi sighed, "That's okay, then...in the afternoon? In the afternoon, I will go to Tesla's R\u0026D department and workshop."

David Sachs was very happy, "Okay, thank you very much."

Then, Zhou Buqi called the financial assistant, sister Chen Ran.

Chen Ran may be a habit developed at work. As soon as he received the call, he began to report to work, "The Marvel case has been finalized, and I will go to Los Angeles to sign the contract in 3 days. I have already bought the shares of Netflix. I won 260,000 shares. However, Netflix’s share price has been raised from $11.7 to $12.9 by me. Also, there is a slight discrepancy in what I said that day. The total shares of Netflix are now 62 million shares. In the first half of this year , they have repurchased 6 million shares successively..."

Ramble.

Zhou Buqi likes this kind of work method very much, he is vigorous and efficient, "Sister Chen, I have a new case here, and I may need you to follow up. Do you have time to come to San Francisco?"

"OK."

Chen Ran simply agreed.
