Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant Chapter 205

  Chapter 205 Adding property

Everyone was like-minded, so they exchanged business cards or contact information. From what An Feng saw, he had a variety of occupations, but being able to come out to race cars on Wednesday proved that he was usually free, and he had to have spare money to play. Most of them were investments. Those who eat dividends.

   Instead, Howard opened a comprehensive dealer in Los Angeles, engaged in the sales of some niche sports cars.

  An Feng looked at his business card: "Do you sell Koenigsegg and Pagani at the same time?"

Howard nodded: "Because the output of niche cars is too low, they generally don't set up sales centers. Of course, there are their sales points in Los Angeles, but I still open advanced ones, not only these two brands, but also some European niche brands, Ascari ( Ascari), Tramontana (Tramontana) both."

  An Feng asked: "Do you have Koenigsegg's latest AgerR?"

  Howard smiled: "Of course, but there is only one display car, and you need to place an order for all the existing cars."

   "I'll go to the store when I'm free, maybe I can bring you some business." An Feng said with a smile. Although the core competitiveness and research and development capabilities of the niche sports car are not strong, it is strong in customization and care. The most important thing is that it has a small number—fewer than the limited edition models of major manufacturers.

Taking Ferrari as an example, its limited edition LaFerrari sells 499 units, mainly manual work, and the slowest is completed within ten years, with an average of nearly 50 cars a year. However, compared with Koenigsegg, which claims to be mass-produced, it has only The annual output does not exceed 20 vehicles, and there is not much difference between mass production and the limited number of large manufacturers.

  An Feng also likes rare cars, but don't think about them in stock. Manufacturers only start work after receiving orders, and they pay attention to slow work and meticulous work. Can you believe that he dares to polish a car light in a day? So ordering this kind of car requires patience and a certain amount of financial resources.

  Howard said: "If you want to come, I will entertain you personally, but I have something to go out in the last three days, so it's best to call me first."

   "I will notify you." An Feng nodded.

  Joanna has been very busy recently.

  This is what I said...but it is true. It can only be said that it is the same as An Feng playing sports cars, the power of interest is infinite.

  She discussed with An Feng that the racecourse must take traffic into consideration, obviously it cannot be built in a deserted place, even if someone comes, it will take several hours. The plan based on convenience was cancelled, and the address was changed to near SLO, where the airport is large and the population is also large.

  Actually, the most suitable place for the racecourse is around the big cities, but they decided to enjoy it privately and with friends, so they changed most of the plan, focusing on being close to themselves. In addition, the luxurious grandstand is still retained, but the venue has been enlarged. In addition to the professional track, there is also a spacious leisure area.

Site construction is easy to do if you have money. One or two hundred acres of land can't be as high as the sky. The land around the SLO city is about three million, and then hire designers and builders. , the cost is lower than expected, maybe just over 200 million.

   But there is another big expense—famous horses.

Obviously, since there is a luxury racecourse, the horses themselves have to be worthy of the grade. They have to be purebred, descendants of parents who have performed outstandingly, or retired racehorses. Although retired horses are no longer Participate in the competition, but it is not bad to buy back and forth to add some fame.

Joanna has already calculated the demand: "There are about 15 warm-blooded horses for running the track, and 30 warm-blooded horses for comprehensive training. Taking into account the polo field, we need to add another 20 horses. It is estimated that we will need 65 horses. Horses, based on the average price of 300,000, the budget is about 20 million."

  An Feng rested his head on her legs, listened, and added: "As long as you like, you can be ten times taller."

"Rationality!" Joanna reminded him, "It's not like you! As long as you like it, you don't care about it. These horses are not used to participate in the Olympics, nor are they used to participate in the three major events. The level of 300,000-500,000 is enough to buy very good Yes. Millions of them are hard to raise, and they don't make much sense.”

   "Well, what you said makes sense." An Feng grabbed her hand and played with it.

Joanna didn't notice that his attention was no longer on the conversation, and continued: "Of course, if there are really good breeds, the budget can be increased to 30 million. According to the needs of future expansion, the settings for the four stables can accommodate two horses at the same time. Hundreds of horses and supporting equipment."

   "Two hundred horses? Not bad! But a simple racecourse is not big, so it certainly can't accommodate that much. You have to expand the foundation."

  Joanna nodded, leaned over and kissed him: "Thank you."

   "Kiss me a few more times, and I can sell you myself." An Feng said with a smile, turning his head and kissing her skin through a layer of cloth.

   "Sweet mouth!" She smiled and pinched his mouth.

   As far as the private racecourse is concerned, An Feng is basically soy sauce.

After the style was basically fine, An Feng flew a plane and took her to see the land around SLO in the air. Except for the grape planting area, there are many idle lands around the city. The area is not small, but the transportation is convenient and close to the city. Land prices are a little bit expensive.

   But this is not a factor that affects the purchase, it mainly depends on whether she likes it or not.

Joanna's requirements are relatively high. The surface layer of the land should be rich in organic matter soil, on the premise that it is suitable for lawn grass, and add appropriate amount of fertilizer and soil improver; and the road base should use loam or sandy soil, divided into layers or Two-story building; good drainage is required, and the runway is rolled with a roller.

After looking at it several times, she decided to buy a 165-acre piece of land. An Feng summoned the land agent, signed the contract and handed in the check. Then she called Angela and asked her to find a professional construction team for the racetrack. Starting from transforming the land to plant lawns, we pay attention to everything.

  She has been very leisurely recently. Apart from beauty and fitness, she doesn't like to drive and have fun all day. She is worried that she has nothing to do.

   After she took over the work at the racetrack, An Feng went to Los Angeles.

After making an appointment with Howard on the phone, Fred drove him to the research center in Santa Monica by helicopter, and then drove a huge Mercedes-Benz SUV to the address provided by Howard, which is a two-story general sales store. In the parking lot behind, many cars were covered with cloth.

  Get out of the car, greet Howard with a hug, and walk into the store together.

  The store is small, but beautifully decorated. There are two salesmen, one man and one woman. There are two rare sports cars in the indoor exhibition hall: Koenigsegg AgerR and Pagani Huayra.

  As soon as An Feng saw them, his pace quickened a little. These are rare items, just like the McLaren F1, which can only be seen at auto shows.

   "It's rare to see it!" An Feng sighed.

  Howard smiled: "I can understand this feeling. I was very excited when I first opened the store. I had to look at them a few times every day to fall asleep."

   "It would be better if it was your own?" An Feng joked.

   "Of course!" Howard nodded, and said with his head sideways: "So I quietly kept one for myself."

   An Feng laughed, this guy is very funny.

An Feng left the white Agera and turned to look at Pagani-Huayra, which means "wind god". It adopts huge gull-wing doors, that is, the door opens upwards, and the body adopts a large amount of carbon fiber structure. Sitting in the car is also full of metal feeling.

Howard introduced at the side: "Whether it is Agera or Huayra, they are both excellent. The theoretical top speed is above 400 kilometers per hour. If you refresh the driving computer of Agera and release the electronic speed limit, it can run to a top speed of more than 430 kilometers. .”

   "It's great, it feels comparable in performance!" An Feng said, which also aroused his interest in driving them on the track for personal testing.

  After carefully admiring the two customers' ordered cars, he sat down with Howard again.

   "I like them very much." An Feng said straightforwardly, "I can have it sooner. Is it convenient to sign a contract now?"

   "Oh! I can't react at your speed! I've only watched it for ten minutes!" Howard said, but his reaction was not slow, and he turned his head and waved to a saleswoman.

   "I've always paid attention to efficiency!" An Feng smiled.

The sales contract is very easy. Anfeng has put a lot of effort into the color of the vehicle. Because it is produced in a small amount, there are many places for customization for customers, including color and interior decoration. If necessary, you can add your own personalized name to it. , but the wait is longer.

An Feng's requirements were simple, so he chose Koenigsegg with white body and black wheels, and Pagani with red body, and carefully selected some interior styles. , An Feng signed his name.

  These two cars are not cheap, Koenigsegg is 1.45 million US dollars, and Pagani is 1.35 million US dollars. Counting the profits earned by the middlemen, they are already very close to the market price. But the manufacturers sell so high, naturally they also have their own profits, but it takes a little longer, and they have to wait for one and a half to two years.

   An Feng was annoyed by waiting, he asked: "Is there no way to go faster?"

  Howard said: "I can contact the factory and ask them to work overtime and deliver within a year, but the customer has to share part of the salary."

  Koenigsegg is quite well-known, but its factory has only about forty employees, and the manufacturing speed is quite slow, so it is also a shortcut to give them more wages to increase the speed. After all, in a capitalist society, if there is no big-name status like Ferrari, money is easy to talk about.

   "How much will it cost?" An Feng asked.

   "It depends on their answer, the two cars do not exceed 300,000." Howard said.

   "Let's do this." An Feng said, 300,000 can be changed quickly, and he thinks it's worth it.

   "If you are in a hurry, try to contact the factory in the afternoon. If you are not in a hurry, it will be two days later. You know that Europeans are very laid-back."

  An Feng remembered that Pagani is from Italy... no wonder.

   "I'm not in a hurry, just call me." An Feng stood up and said goodbye to him, "I won't stay any longer, I have to look at other cars and consider a four-door car."

   "What brand? If it's a Rolls-Royce, I know the owner of Beverly Hills."

An Feng originally wanted to buy a Bentley. After all, Les-Royce is too old... He has to be older, and he will be able to sit up with a gray-haired butler in his 30s and 40s... But it is still a choice. He decided to go and see the details with Howard. of. It's close, everyone is around Beverly Hills.

   As a result, Bentley was ruled out at first glance.

Although on the surface, Rolls-Royce is in the shape of a large black coffin that has remained unchanged for decades, but its luxurious workmanship and grand appearance are unforgettable after experiencing it in person... Buy it, and Joanna will be knighted in the future, St. After Barbara's mansion is completed, it will definitely come in handy.

   So he decided to buy it.

And there's more than one, three Phantoms - two Phantoms with a black exterior and red interior, and they are long-wheelbase versions, that is, the popular extended version, which is about 15 cm longer than the ordinary Phantom, and most of them are added to the In terms of rear space, VIP guests are more comfortable.

The third car is a two-door version, a convertible Phantom, with a milky white exterior and white interior. It has abandoned the image of a dull black coffin in the past and has become sporty and fashionable without losing luxury. It is most suitable for wearing a suit The male owner of the hotel drove the car himself and took his wife and children on an outing.

After adding some personalized decorations, the three cars cost more than one million yuan. The time to pick up the cars is expected to be about two years. An Feng is not in a hurry this time. The racecourse is built, and you can take the driver and bodyguards with you when you go out.
