1855 United States Tycoon

"Send all our people out. I will know even if a mosquito flies into Philadelphia. Do you understand?" Nero said to own son at last.

"Okay, Dad. I will do it." Harry stepped back.

"Witch Black, what kind of method does this pervert want to use?" Nero said to himself. Then he went into the back room and picked up the phone.

"I'm Cross, please pick me up Mr. Rodin... Mr. Rodin, I'm Cross, we caught the assassin who tried to assassinate the President, and we also got some news from other assassins..."

...

Rodin was one of Rockefeller's secretaries. After receiving this call, he immediately went to see Rockefeller.

"Mr. Rockefeller, there is information about someone trying to assassinate the President." Rodin said to Rockefeller. Rockefeller is now sixty-five years old. In that era, his age has exceeded the average life expectancy of a United States. But compared to Morgan, who is two years older than him, Rockefeller's physical condition is significantly better. If you don't look at the color of his hair, but just look at his usual movements, you might even think that he is just like a man in his 30s or 40s.

For example, until now, Rockefeller still walks faster than most young people. It's almost like a trot, and people who come and go can bring a gust of wind. And when he sits there, you will also find that his sitting posture is completely different from that of Scrooge and Morgan. Morgan has always been able to lie down without tilting, not sitting when tilted, and not standing when able to sit. Of course, this may also be because Morgan is the oldest among them, and he is also the heaviest. As for Scrooge, although he is not like Morgan, you can infer his sitting habit from the fact that his seats are all leather sofas with a thick sponge layer. This is not the case with Rockefeller. The seat behind Rockefeller’s desk is a stiff wooden chair bought from the market. Although there is also a backrest that is also straight and stiff, this backrest is almost useless, because Rockefeller hardly Will lean on it. He sits there, always upright.

Like his still young body, Rockefeller still maintains a strong enthusiasm for work. In contrast, both Morgan and Scrooge are much lazy. This also determines that Rockefeller's management style is somewhat different from that of Scrooge. That is, Rockefeller is more meticulous in management, and sometimes it is quite a legacy of Zhuge's prime minister.

"Where did the intelligence come from?" Rockefeller asked while taking the intelligence and looking through it.

"The Philadelphia underworld leader Cross came from. They caught a sniper who was going to shoot the president with a .50 caliber sniper rifle at a distance of kilometers." Rodin replied.

"Are all possible sniper points controlled now?" Rockefeller asked.

"The police and gangsters have monitored all positions within 1,500 meters where you can see Mr. President's podium." Rodin replied, "In addition, the people from Heishui also participated."

"How is the balloon preparation?" Rockefeller asked again. According to the plan, Rockefeller's subordinates planned to hang colorful balloons around the small square. In this way, it can decorate the scene, and secondly, it can also block the sight of possible snipers. So, in fact, if Sith was not discovered, if he came to the sniper position he chose that day, he would find that the original clear vision had been filled with balloons of various colors. Generally speaking, Scrooge would not go too far with such details, but by contrast, Rockefeller is much more detailed.

"Who is that witch Black, do you have any information?"

"Yes, Mr. Rockefeller." Rodin took out another piece of information, "This is the information we obtained by combining all aspects of intelligence. This Black is a pervert. He cut off the own thing himself and wants to become a female. He is an expert in explosions, and it is said that he was responsible for the bombing in Chicago last year."

"Can the thing we prepared for the president stop an explosion of that degree?"

"No problem, Mr. Rockefeller." Rodin said affirmatively.

...

The so-called thing prepared for the president is actually a bulletproof glass cover. When cars were invented and many manufacturers started to produce cars, in order to enhance their competitiveness, McDonald began to develop a glass that would not break in a collision, so that McDonald’s cars competed with other manufacturers. China further occupies an advantage.

The principle of this kind of glass is actually very simple, that is, a layer of transparent glue is sandwiched between two layers of glass. In this way, when the glass encounters an impact, although it will still crack, the cracked fragments will still be glued together by the glue in the middle, thus avoiding the accident, the glass fragments flying around and causing serious damage to the passengers. The problem of secondary injury.

Starting from this technology, McDonald’s engineers recently introduced a bulletproof glass technology. The so-called bulletproof glass is actually very similar to the front car glass, except that the glass is thicker and has more interlayers. When a bullet hits it, the broken glass cannot be scattered like broken copper glass because the broken glass is stuck. In this way, if the bullet wants to penetrate the glass, it must squeeze through the glass abruptly. The hardness of glass is actually greater than that of most steel. At the same time, in this process, the energy of the bullet will be continuously transmitted to the glass, and the bulletproof glass will continue to crack to consume the energy of the bullet. The final result is that relying on the sandwich technology, only a lot less than the normal thickness is needed. Glass can block bullets.

Of course, there are other requirements for making bulletproof glass, for example, the transparency of the glass and the interlayer must be excellent. Because it is very thick compared to ordinary glass, if the transparency is not good, it will appear cloudy. This also brings another problem, that is, the manufacturing cost is quite high. But this is not a big problem, because this thing will be used in luxury bulletproof cars in the future. People who can afford such a car will not care about the amount of money.

This time, for the president's security work, MacDonald made a bulletproof glass fence specially for the president to stand inside and give a speech. It is said that President Roosevelt was not very satisfied with this arrangement at first, and he felt that it was too detrimental to his fearless image as a war hero. However, considering that it is indeed more dangerous recently, and because "the unnecessary risk is not brave but reckless", he finally agreed. Later, this bullet-proof glass fence almost became the standard equipment when the President of the United States gave speeches and participated in activities such as military parades. In future generations, even when visiting foreign countries, the President of United States will bring this thing with him....

Facts have proved that the efficiency of the police department in United States is not low. Their previous inefficiency was just useless or insufficient resources. After receiving special funding and the cooperation of the gang’s intelligence and personnel, they only It took two days for the Philadelphia police to find "Blake the Witch" and killed him on the spot. They seized up to one kilogram of explosives and 4 kilograms of steel balls in his residence, as well as the electronic control invented by Scrooge. Into the remote control detonation device.

With the close cooperation of black and white, President Roosevelt successfully delivered a speech. In his speech, he praised Mr. Rockefeller's enthusiasm for public welfare, and also expressed the determination of the United States government to firmly protect the free market and free trade.

"Only in a completely free market can there be truly free people! Therefore, to defend the free market is to defend the people’s freedom. And to defend freedom is God’s notorious destiny given to America! It is in order to realize freedom that our ancestors Europe has come all the way to this land of freedom God has promised us. Today, when free people are enjoying the freedom God has given us, we can’t forget the infamous destiny taught to us by God, that is Spread the voice of freedom throughout the world, and let the people of the world enjoy freedom with us. Therefore, we must implement an open-door policy to the world, so that the entire world market will become a completely free market! We believe that any unfreedom Yes, closed markets are immoral. They are against God's will.

Of course, promoting a free market does not mean starting a war. We, the people of United States, are peace-loving people. Although we have a big stick in our hands that can be used to maintain freedom, we must speak more peacefully when we promote freedom..."

...

A week later, an "antitrust law" that looked more stringent from the text was passed smoothly in both houses. Although most Democrats voted against it, it was useless. Then, in accordance with this bill, the federal government and the court ruled that a series of large companies, including McDonald Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, McDonald Steel, and Standard Oil Company New York Railroad, and a series of local companies in the Midwest, were suspected of monopolizing. , Must be split.

Since then, the McDonald Consortium spent about a year splitting McDonald’s Chemical and Pharmaceutical into six companies including McDonald’s Pharmaceuticals and McDonald’s Chemicals, and splitting McDonald’s Steel into six companies. With eight companies including United States Steel, Western Steel, and United States Aluminum, Standard Oil was split into more than a dozen companies including Mobil, California Petroleum, Alaska Petroleum, and New Mexico Petroleum. After these companies were split, many investors entered, and the company's stock price was ascending. In just one year, the wealth of the McDonald family was expanded by almost 50%.

But this was not the most satisfying for Scrooge. What satisfies him most is that now, almost no industry in United States can close his funds. With sufficient funds, he has begun to enter some industries that were previously controlled by others. In the years that followed, United States kept popping up new millionaires, multi-millionaires, and new winners, but if you look up the bills of these upstarts, you will find that behind them, often There will be funds from MacDonald or Morgan.
