Of course, he wasn't in a hurry to get rid of the gold.
After all, it was impossible to get rid of such a large amount of gold every few decades.
Chen Zhao still cared more about his skills.
If he didn't have Neutron Star, Chen Zhao might have really failed.
Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, the studio had really helped him a lot this time.
This time, they didn't take a boat to the West Coast. Instead, they docked at the Charleston port on the East Coast, greatly reducing the distance.
The whole journey took less than two days. Then, they flew back to Los Angeles.
Home was indeed the most comfortable.
Chen Zhao had been away for a long time this time.
"Portia, this is for you."
Because Chen Zhao wasn't home, she basically had to do all the housework.
Especially the kids. None of them were easy to deal with.
Portia took it and looked. A bag?
So heavy … Portia weighed it.
Portia glanced at the bag. It was filled with golden beads.
"F * ck, gold?" Portia cursed, losing her composure.
Chen Zhao stretched his limbs and said calmly, "If you think my gift is vulgar, you can give it back to me."
"No, it's not vulgar at all," Portia said, overjoyed. "Boss, why did you suddenly change after one trip?"
"No, it's just that I have too much money."
Portia glanced at Chen Zhao. Her expression was one of deep disgust.
"Portia, do you think there are any places in my house that can be changed to make me look rich?"
"…" Portia's expression was lifeless. She'd always hated Chen Zhao, and now she hated him even more. "Boss, anyone who sees your manor will know that you're rich. You don't have to use extra things to pretend."
"I'm serious."
"Change all the bowls and chopsticks in your house to gold. That'll make you look really rich."
"Good idea." Chen Zhao nodded.
"Best if you can make a gold car. You don't need to drive it. Just park it in the garage. When people come and see your car, they'll immediately see your collection."
"…" Portia looked at Chen Zhao, speechless.
Chen Zhao was a bit obsessed. He had an endless amount of gold, but he didn't know how to use it.
It was a very painful feeling.
So, Chen Zhao was even worse now.
Since it couldn't be exchanged for real wealth, it could be used to show off.
Portia thought that Chen Zhao's brain had really gone haywire.
He actually thought that his rotten idea was good.
Chen Zhao picked up the phone. "Amira, how are you?"
"Not bad. When are you free?"
"Now."
"Eh …"
"If you're not free right now, we can arrange another day."
"Alright then. If you're free now, come over now."
Soon, Amira arrived at Chen Zhao's house.
"I heard that you've been out recently." Amira asked.
"Yes, I went to the sea." Chen Zhao nodded.
"I want to ask you a question."
"Hmm? What is it? "
"When I went out to sea this time, I got a batch of gold. It's a bit big."
"How old?"
"Anyway, there's a lot," Chen Zhao said.
"So what do you plan to do?"
"Do you want it?"
"Me? If you want to sell it to me, I can only give you 40% of the market price at most. "
Chen Zhao pursed his lips. Amira was much harder to deal with than Aquilati Gisli.
"How about I give you a plan?"
"What plan?"
"Mortgage it to the bank," Amira said.
"What's the difference between that and selling it to you?"
"Of course. If you sell it to me, the profits and losses are all mine. But if you sell it to the bank, my shares in Citibank are less than 2%, and my family only has 6%. So, as long as I don't make any major mistakes, the bank's profits won't have much to do with me."
"If the bank loses money, you'll lose money too, right?"
"The biggest value of my and my family's shares isn't in the board's dividends, but in keeping it safe. Plus, I won't do anything to harm the bank's interests."
"Then tell me your plan," Chen Zhao said.
"When you mortgage the gold to the bank, sign a mortgage agreement with the bank. If you don't pay on time, the gold will automatically belong to the bank."
"That's actually selling it to the bank, right?"
"Yes, but there's a trick to this kind of mortgage agreement. You can't use less to make up for more. You can only use more to make up for less."
"Do I need to provide proof of gold production?"
"You just need to provide proof of gold salvaging."
"You have to pay taxes for the profits from salvaging shipwrecks, right?"
"You have to convert the gold into cash."
"Wait … Can this really work? The tax bureau won't give me any trouble? "
"As long as the reason is legitimate. You can say that I only want to sell it for one dollar. Who can control how much you sell it for?"
"So, I just need to mortgage it to the bank?"
"Yes. The procedures are a bit complicated, but it's not impossible. You don't have to worry about most of the time. After all, you have your own lawyer."
"Then how much can I mortgage it for?"
"That depends on how much gold you have. Give me a specific number."
"Three hundred tons … How much can I mortgage it for?" Chen Zhao asked.
Amira's eyes widened. "Three hundred tons?"
"Yes." Chen Zhao nodded.
Even Amira, who was used to seeing the world, could not help but gasp.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes."
"This is already the total loan for our entire California branch for a quarter."
"Can you get a loan?"
"I'll have to report to the other directors about the loan amount that I can give you. You should also contact your lawyer as soon as possible. It's going to be a tough negotiation." Amira said.
Amira left in a hurry, so Chen Zhao immediately contacted Alex.
"Alex, this is the exact situation."
"Three hundred tons of gold? Chen, did you wipe out the gold reserves of some country's banks? "
"Alex, are you sure this can be done?"
"No problem. Tell me your bottom line."
"You don't need to know what my bottom line is. I'll give you a 3% commission."
"Chen, are you sure you want to give me a 3% commission? You have to know that 3% is definitely more than 100 million dollars. "
"I've never lied to you before."
"I understand." Alex nodded.
"Alex, if this can avoid taxes, does that mean all of my assets can be avoided like this?"
"You're thinking too much. We can only do this this time because of the bank's cooperation, because they've received enough benefits. But why should the bank cooperate with you for your other assets?"
