1855 United States Tycoon

"Wake up, wake up!"

"Really woke up! My God, his eyes are moving!"

"God! Jesus!"

"Hey, Bill, I couldn't think of it, you really woke him up! God bless you, you finally..."

"Scrooge... can you hear me?"

When Rayong opened his eyes very hard, he heard a large group of people next to him chatting in English. The sound was very noisy, making Rayong a headache. He reluctantly opened his eyes, um, a large group of Europeans were forming a circle, enclosing him in the middle, each of them stretched out their necks.

At this time, the noon sun was passing through the empty space in the middle of the circle of people's heads and shining on Rayong's face. The sunlight was too strong. Luo Yong just opened his eyes and had to close it again. At the same time, he wanted to raise his hand to block the excessively strong sunlight. However, he could not raise his hand. On the contrary, this action made him dizzy for a while and almost passed out again.

"Here is the stretcher... Be careful, John, you can help me lift his head... Be careful, don't use too much force... Carl, raise his hips, don't lift from the waist, from the hips You idiot, don't you even know where your buttocks are... Be light! You will hurt him again by doing this."

Rayong felt that he was carefully lifted up by several people, and only then did he realize that his whole body was hurting.

Rayong lay in bed for several days. In the past few days, he worked very hard to figure out one thing, that is, he unfortunately became a member of the crossing army.

Unfortunately? Yes, unfortunately. Many people think that crossing is a low-risk, high-yield business. You see, which poor dick did not immediately get a set of protagonist templates after crossing, and good luck has continued since then? To practice, there is an old grandpa who pops up, holding a god-level Secret Technique, and kowtowing to beg you to learn. That attitude is definitely better than the people's teachers in the basic school who ask you to study hard. Grandson a thousand times; too tired and don't want to practice the exercises? It doesn't matter, grandpa will beg you, please let him give you all his skills for hundreds of years and thousands of years. Want beauties? That was the shock of the tiger's body, and immediately there were a lot of top beauties posted upside down, from Loli to Onee-san, from pure girls to mature wives, everything was upside down. Anyway, all of them "take your dowry, take your Little Sister, and sit on the cloud boat."

But this is not necessarily the case. This is like stock speculation or gambling on rocks. What everyone hears are stories of "successful people". As for those hapless people who jumped off the building, who cares who he is?

It took a few days for Luo Yong to figure it out. He now traveled to United States in 1855 and became a kid named Scrooge McDonald who was just eleven years old. A few days ago, "I" climbed a tree to dig out a bird's nest and fell down and fell to his death. Fortunately, the neighbor's Bill Rockefeller, who is said to be proficient in medical skills, happened to be at home. .

Of course, Scrooge's parents are now very grateful to Bill. I was so ashamed that I believed in rumors that Bill was an immoral Rivers and Lakes liar, and even slandered his reputation in front of others more than once. When Bill awakened Scrooge, Scrooge's father Joseph apologized to Bill very sincerely in front of everyone.

Bill is indeed very knowledgeable. When Scrooge's strange phenomena appeared in the next few days, such as suddenly not recognizing people, such as the accent became extraordinarily weird, Joseph asked people to look for them. A priest came to see if there was something unclean and asked his neighbor Bill for advice. Bill let Joseph relax. He told Joseph that it is not surprising that people who break their head often have similar symptoms. This statement was also recognized by Pastor Stephen, who came afterwards. Therefore, Joseph and his wife Laura were relieved. On the one hand, they admired Bill, and on the other hand, they also expressed their respect for Rayong’s all sorts of weirdness since then. It's no surprise that you are not surprised, at most it is a mutter: "Poor Scrooge, I hope he will get better soon."

A week later, Scrooge McDonald was finally able to get up and go out. After spending two days running around, Rayong-Scrooge was finally convinced that he really came to the United States in the nineteenth century.

In other words, Rayong's luck is not bad among those who pass through. Although he couldn't wear it to the homes of big nobles and rich men, his family background is still moderate. His father Joseph is a good shoemaker. The shoes he makes are beautiful in appearance, comfortable to wear, durable, and there are very good nearby reputation. Thanks to Joseph's craftsmanship, the life of the family is pretty good. After a week, I can eat meat again at home. Speaking of it, it is better than neighbor Bill's family. As the youngest son, Scrooge is the most beloved child in the family. Whether it is his father Joseph, his mother Laura, or Dage Carroll, who has already started to help his father make leather shoes, he loves him very much.

However, this is not what makes Rayong the most satisfied. Such a life level, in any case, still cannot compare with Luo Yong's original life level. What really satisfies Luo Yong is that his neighbor believes in Rockefeller. And Luo Yong is now sure that this Rockefeller is the Rockefeller who will become a legend.

Neighbor Bill Rockefeller has three sons and two daughters. Their eldest son is named John, their second son is named William, and their third son is named Frank; their eldest daughter is named Lucy, and their second daughter is named Mary. Isn't this the Rockefeller family that will be famous in the world in the future? According to history, John Rockefeller will become the oil king. The Standard Oil Company he founded controlled more than 80% of the United States and more than half of the world's oil when it was at its strongest. And he himself became the first super rich man in the history of United States with a personal asset of more than 1 billion U.S. dollars, and by the time of his death, his personal wealth was as high as 1.4 billion U.S. dollars!

This 1.4 billion US dollars is not the gold-free 1.4 billion US dollars of the 21st century. The ratio of this money to the GDP of the United States, which had become the world's largest economic power at the time, is as high as 1:65. According to the ratio of the United States GDP in 2013 to 16.56 trillion US dollars, his personal wealth is as high as 255 billion US dollars. !

Of course, the Rockefeller family has not yet developed. The future United States' richest man, the oil magnate John Rockefeller, is still in high school. But isn't this a good opportunity? As long as you hug this thigh, there is much hope in the future.

Scrooge was four years younger than John Rockefeller, but because of the good family conditions, Scrooge was younger than John when he started school. As a result, the two are now studying in the same middle school. It's just that John is one grade higher than Scrooge. Two people used to go to school together every day.

After resting at home for two more days and confirming that there was no problem, Scrooge was finally going to school. After breakfast, John Rockefeller from the neighbor's house called him.

"Scrooge, you should go to school today!" While saying, John also helped Scrooge pick up his schoolbag, and the two went out together, "My mother asked me to take care of you on the road. He always worried about me. Dad is not very reliable... Well, I still don't say this... I heard that you forgot a lot of things. Do you remember those things you learned in school?"

"Forget some, but most of them remember. Even if you don't remember, just learn again. I think as long as you work hard, there is no reason to learn badly." In the view of Scrooge, who was an engineer in his previous life, in the 19th century It should be easy to deal with the things in the United States Middle School.

John Rockefeller stopped suddenly. He stared at Scrooge up and down for a long time, and then said: "Strange, can a fall really turn a person into another completely? You are now much calmer than before. Now, um, I have more confidence! It seems to have grown up all at once."

It was really weird to see a sixteen-year-old kid saying that he had grown up all of a sudden. Although he knows that the half-year-old child in front of him will be the richest man in the history of the United States in the future, although he knows that he will drop out of middle school this year, enter a business school to learn bookkeeping, and then embark on the road of creating legends, but history Gao Zhi still feels weird.

The road to the school is very long, it takes about half an hour to walk, and the two people are talking while walking.

"Hmm... Scrooge, I don't know if you remember one thing?" John Rockefeller said suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Scrooge asked.

"I know, you forgot." John Rockefeller shook his head, and then said, "I don't plan to continue studying in middle school. I plan to go to a business school in the city to learn bookkeeping. I think this is even more important for me. Practical. You know, the condition of our family is not good. My father has always been unreliable. Although he did well when he rescued you this time, he... In short, as the eldest son, I must take on the responsibility of supporting the family as soon as possible. "

"I seem to know a little bit." Scrooge frowned, as if thinking hard. "I seem to remember that the tuition fees of this kind of school are not cheap, John, do you have that much money?"

"That's it. It costs 40 dollars. My father promised to borrow me 40 dollars, but he asked me 15% interest. Damn, this interest is a lot higher than the bank! He just bullied me. Ways to borrow money from the bank. I want to know if you can let your family lend me a little money, part of it is fine, when I work, I can pay the bank interest, no, a higher interest rate than the bank , Pay you back the 11% interest. How about?" John Rockefeller looked into Scrooge's eyes expectantly.
