1855 United States Tycoon

The genius had just dawned, and Stein went out as usual and walked in the direction of the company. But halfway through, he suddenly remembered that there is no need to go to work at the company today, because the company declared bankruptcy yesterday. So Stein stopped, after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to go home first. Now is not a good time to find a job. At this time, the streets are full of unemployed traders. There is no company, and I still need to hire traders. In addition to this job, Stein really couldn't find other suitable industries for his own. In that case, let's go home first. The storm will always pass. At that time, with your own skills and experience, you should still be able to find a job. Moreover, unlike ordinary blind investors, as a trader, Stein is much more aware of the risks in the stock market than most people. Therefore, even though he also invested his own private property in the stock market during the period when the stock market was booming, he controlled the scale very well. After each profit, he would withdraw a certain percentage of the profitable capital from the stock market and exchange it for five dollars in gold coins. In this way, although Stein’s last transaction still lost a lot, because of the previous practices, in general, he still made a lot of money in this stock market frenzy, so even if he can’t find it in the short term Work is actually no big deal anymore.

Stein then turned around and walked towards the house. After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered that it was not far from the vegetable market, so it was better to go there to buy something and go back. So he turned around. Into the vegetable market.

Usually Stein rarely goes out to buy vegetables by himself, but he is basically aware of the prices of various dishes, but today, he found that the prices of these things have dropped greatly. So he bought a sea bass, and some other things, and then went to the shop next to him to buy a bottle of wine.

Just when he went out, he met his neighbor Petrov. Petrov was a lazy drunkard, a loafing rascal. In Stein's impression, he is a guy who gets himself drunk every day, and then dreams of falling a golden pie from the sky, smashing it in front of own, and making himself a fortune right away. Naturally, Stein has always despised such people.

"Yo, Jew, got rich?" Seeing what Stein was holding, Petrov walked over maliciously and said in a malicious voice.

"No, it's just not bankrupt." Stein replied casually and planned to leave. He didn't want to entangle with such a person too much.

"It's not bankrupt? You damn jew! You cheated us all the money from United States, aren't you satisfied? You jewish pig!" Petrov suddenly yelled.

Stein hurriedly speeded up to avoid Petrov, but Petrov grabbed him.

"You damn Jew, you made a lot of money in the stock market, right? You stole all our money... Give us back our money!"

"You lunatic!" Stein struck hard and slammed his arm, shaking Petrov, who was already a bit too drunk and unstable, and sat down on the ground.

"You Jewish pig, you dare to do it!" Petrov glared at Stein, then got up, rushed towards Stein with his fists, and shouted: "Jews robbed us of the money from the United States. Kill the Jew!"

Their actions attracted the attention of some people. These people originally just wanted to see the excitement, but after hearing Stein yell "Kill the Jews", they all changed their faces and surrounded them.

"Kill the Jew!" I don't know who yelled first, and then a group of people rushed up, and countless fists fell on Stein. Stein was knocked to the ground, and those people kept fighting, punching and kicking. Stein could only hug his head with his hands and curl up into a ball... Just when he was about to pass out, in a daze, he heard a police siren...

A policeman ran over and asked, "What's the matter?"

"A damn Jewish thief!" someone replied.

"Oh. The Jew who wants to rule the world." The policeman said, "Don't fight on the street, the influence is not good..."

...

East Atlantic, yacht "Fast".

This is a luxury high-speed cruise ship produced by Morgan McDonald Shipyard with a displacement of up to two thousand tons. It is powered by the latest fuel steam turbine and has a maximum speed of 32 knots. Even the cruising speed can be maintained at two. More than fifteen knots. The advanced damping fins and the beautifully floating Atlantic bow make this boat quite stable.

In the entire world, there are only three such fast cruise ships, one is the shipyard’s technology verification ship, and the other two are Morgan’s Viking and Scrooge’s Express.

"Mr. MacDonald, Mr. Morgan took a telegram for you." A servant handed a telegram to Scrooge.

"Okay." Scrooge took the telegram and looked at it.

The content of the telegram is actually very simple, that is, Morgan believes that the crisis has developed and various conditions have matured, so Morgan plans to return to Manhattan in the near future. He called Scrooge and told Scrooge that now "Mr. People's Hope in North America, if the drought is too long," Scrooge should quickly return and implement the savior's plan with Morgan according to the plan.

"How far is it from Caen?" Scrooge asked.

"There is still half a day's voyage." The servant replied.

"Very good." Scrooge said, and took out a prepared letter from his own drawer and handed it to the servant. "After landing, you will immediately help me deliver this letter to the World Medical Exchange Committee Organizing Committee. Yes, I’m very sorry, because of some unexpected events, I have to rush back to United States immediately."

This is the script agreed upon by Scrooge and Morgan. Morgan first returned to Manhattan to release the news of a rescue, but he did not take any effective action. Instead, he complained to the media that he could not deal with unsuspecting foreign capital and reverse the whole situation with his own power. Then Scrooge rushed back, the two sides worked together and mobilized a series of big capitalists from United States to join in, finally stabilized the market and saved the crisis. And this successful rescue proves that without a unified organization, United States cannot prevent those foreign capitals from cutting United States wool through financial means. Then the Republicans can take advantage of the trend and throw out their "Plan A".
