1855 United States Tycoon

Although both Jr. MacDonald and Jr. Morgan said politely and graciously, if Jacob Schiff hadn’t eaten yet, he could go to eat first, and they could wait for him. But at this time, as long as Jacob Schiff still has a brain, how dare they keep them waiting? After all, the current problem for the Macdonald and Morgan consortium is not a question of life or death, nor is it a question of whether or not they can make money. It is not even a question of how much money is made or how much money is made. For the Macdonald and Morgan consortium, the problem now is just a question of whether it looks good or not. But for Jacob Schiff, the situation is completely different. This is what determines whether he will also be washed, put on a plate and become the two terrifying gluttons of the Macdonald and Morgan consortium. Problem with dinner. At this time, any delay is fatal.

So Jacob Schiff immediately said: "I have eaten dinner, and I dare not let Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Morgan wait for a long time. I think it would be better for me to visit the two gentlemen immediately."

So a few minutes later, Jacob Schiff met Greystone and Little Morgan in a small living room as he wished.

"Mr. MacDonald, Mr. Morgan, thank you for taking the time to meet me at this time." Although Jacob Schiff is considered to be the elder of Greystone and Jr. Morgan in terms of age, he is Behaved very respectfully.

"Schiff Uncle, you can sit down and talk." Little Morgan spoke first. Schiff, who is also a Wall Street banker, has dealt with the Morgan family quite a few times, and the two of them are naturally familiar with each other a long time ago. .

Jacob Schiff sat down in a chair, leaned forward, with his hands flat on the table, watching the two people in front of him, like a prisoner waiting to be sentenced.

"Mr. Schiff, I don't want to say more than that. Everyone knows why we are sitting here now. So we don't have to talk nonsense anymore." Graystone said blankly." You must also know that if we are willing, you will not only lose the tens of millions of dollars you have invested in this change, but you will also face a crisis of trust. For financiers, the crisis of trust is the biggest Naturally, you will be very clear about the consequences of this crisis."

At this point, Greystone stopped, staring at Jacob Schiff, watching his reaction.

Jacob Schiff's face was stern, he seemed to want to say something, but he just opened his mouth a little bit, and then immediately closed it again.

"Schiff Uncle, after all, you and my father have been working together for many years. They are old friends." Little Morgan said, "I can fully understand what you did before, in order to make more money, what you do Correct. But now, you also understand that even if so many things happen, we still treat you with kindness, otherwise, we will not talk about these things here. But, Schiff Uncle, you also understand that any kindness It shouldn’t be unilateral, and it’s necessary to get a response to be effective. To put it more clearly, Schiff Uncle, if we want you to be our partner now, you can’t ask us to reduce it. Profits are even losses. What is your opinion on this?"

After saying this, Little Morgan also looked at Jacob Schiff with very sincere eyes. Jacob Schiff knew that it was time for him to show his "sincerity." He must come up with something that is enough to impress the two gluttonous things in front of him, otherwise, don't even look at Little Morgan but also deduct an Uncle, a mouthful of a decades-long friendship or something. Jacob Schiff knows that the status of these things in the hearts of these two gluttons is completely incomparable with money, and compared with beautiful gold coins, these things are nothing. Of course, this is also true in Jacob Schiff’s own mind.

"Mr. MacDonald, Mr. Morgan. I think I can contribute to our cooperation." Jacob Schiff said slowly, "I know many secrets in the Midwest Banking Union, which are also in this league. A lot of money has been invested in China. If you two need to make this alliance immediately collapse, my use of this money will definitely make this process easier. However, two gentlemen, I have another A recommendation."

"Oh, Mr. Schiff, please tell me about your other suggestion." Grey Stone said.

"The current Midwest Bank Union is actually limited in size, and if they are completely destroyed, it will inevitably bring about a new full-scale crisis. In this way, investing in the Midwest will be more efficient than investing overseas." Jacob Schiff began to seriously talk about a series of things he thought about in the car.

"Mr. MacDonald, Mr. Morgan, you all know the importance of controlling finance in the Midwest. This vast land has the power to maintain a consortium that can stand on top of the McDonald Consortium Morgan Consortium. This is also my participation. One of the reasons for their integration. Faced with such an opportunity, how many people can withstand the temptation even if they know the dangers are high?" Jacob Schiff first defended himself, and then continued, "Yes. This temptation, although you have destroyed this alliance this time, in the future, as long as there is a chance, someone will always try to build something like this. So, I think for gentlemen, a better way is actually not to destroy it. , But with my full cooperation and help, I controlled it with a small price and became its real behind-the-scenes controller. In this way, there is this alliance that is actually controlled by the gentlemen, any new An alliance that no one can circumvent, the Midwest region can be said to be fully controlled by the gentlemen."

"Mr. Schiff, the money we earned by doing this doesn't seem to directly destroy the much it earned." Greystone said coldly.

"Ah, Mr. MacDonald, are you testing me?" Jacob Schiff said with a smile, "If my cooperation can't make you earn more, why would you be willing to waste precious time to listen? I’m nagging? Yes, but if you count this business, you don’t make a lot of money directly, but it may be different in the long run. And even if you just look at it, if it leads to a full-scale crisis, it will inevitably lead to The whole market is shrinking, so the loss to gentlemen in other places is definitely not to be underestimated. It will even interfere with some of the gentlemen's original plans. So in a comprehensive look, I think my plan On the whole it should be the most beneficial."

After listening to this, Greystone turned his head to discuss a few words with Jr. Morgan, then turned his head, smiled at Jacob Schiff and said, "Mr. Schiff, your idea touched us. Let us Let’s discuss how to proceed."
