1855 United States Tycoon

On June 28, 1858, something small or small happened in United States. The old gunpowder factory in Wilmington, Delaware-DuPont's gunpowder depot exploded. If that’s just the case, it’s nothing. Anyway, the United States is so big and there are so many gunpowder companies, and there will be no such stories as the explosion of the ignition magazine. Well, in the eyes of some United States people, the attractiveness of such news is not as attractive as the bear kid who killed his father by playing a gun.

But this is not the case, because the boss of DuPont, Henry DuPont, was shot by an unknown gunman when he rushed to check the scene. At least 6 bullets hit this hapless man, and one of them directly knocked off half of his head.

The killer creates a huge accident and shoots a millionaire. This suspenseful story is highly visible. Although the more serious New York Times and New York Tribune are not embarrassed to dig behind the scenes, but in some tabloids, All kinds of stories with discipline and without discipline appear like mosquitoes after a summer rain.

"Well, this story is well made, and it can be scored eight points." In the office, Morgan leaned against the soft boss chair uncharacteristically, and put his feet high on the large desk in front of him. Holding a newspaper in his hand, he was reading happily.

"Well, the female assassin's family is hurt by hatred. It's not bad. It's both violent, and there are some content that is not suitable for children. Well, the content is very wonderful...Leather whip, candle, thorny rope... Ah, how interesting it is to look at. Would you like to ask a girl to try it? Well, let's forget it for now, let the old man find out, he has to beat me up."

"We haven't started spreading rumors yet? Why are there so many rumors?" Rockefeller shook his head in the own office, facing various newspapers, "Our efficiency of action is very problematic! Compared to those Tabloid reporter, our efficiency is too low."

"It can't be helped, John." Kroll said a few words to the staff responsible for spreading rumors, "You know, tabloid reporters don't need to think about anything, they just need to think about how to frighten and how to excite. How can you make a woman scream and make a certain part of a man react. They usually prepare a variety of templates. When that happens, they only need to change a few names, and a report like this will immediately It's coming out. Anyway, no one is really true to these tabloids. But we are not the same. In terms of procedures, we need to look at various reports in various major newspapers and tabloids first, and adjust our things for them. , We have to consider what we can say and what we can’t. This will naturally be more troublesome. Moreover, we have no previous experience in doing this."

In these days, Rockefeller found a lot of dark history about DuPont to show Kroll, including the story of how Henry sent his competitor and his family to the sky. Now Kroll has no psychological resistance to the company's use of illegal means to deal with Henry DuPont. Instead, he feels that this is a kind of "illegal justice."

"What a pure person, now we have taken him badly." Rockefeller thought this way proudly.

"Well, this report is interesting!" Morgan, who had just returned from the outside with deep satisfaction, flipped through various newspapers. He actually read these newspapers in order to find some interesting gameplays like whip candles, (although it’s good to have this), but to find really useful information in a lot of junk messages. At this time, a report caught his attention.

"'DuPont's stealing of technology secrets led to the killing?' Well, it says that Scrooge and others did this. Although there are a lot of mistakes and flaws, for example, Scrooge personally made the decision. To teach those guys who dare to covet their technology secrets, "set an example", without considering that Scrooge is still floating in the Atlantic Ocean. She will have to be in Houtian to reach England at the earliest, and wait until he knows this. It is estimated that it will take next month to send a message back to the instruction. However, this may be deliberately leaving such a loophole. Well, this article is for a specific person. Well, the whole logic makes sense. Although it is not clearly stated as a technology secret, I all know that it must be the smokeless propellant used in the 1857 precision shooting version of MacDonald. With the virtues of Henry DuPont before, it is not to think about it. It's reasonable. As for bombing factories and killing people, John Rockefeller is absolutely willing to do it, and "Blackwater" definitely has the power to do such a thing. This report must have been produced by Rockefeller and others to warn those People who stare at their technology secrets, um, smokeless gunpowder is a trivial thing compared to the sulfa, and even more things in their hands. These guys are really ruthless! Well, maybe we have to form an own black Water. Otherwise, I won’t sleep at ease."

"How do you think the DuPont family will react?" Carol asked Rockefeller, "most of them know that we did it. What do you think they will fight back?"

"Ah, I don't think the DuPont family will fight back at all. At least not now. First, they are now headless. Henry DuPont died when he was young and strong, and he was a very powerful person. I think the family was dissatisfied with him. There are many people in. Henry did not have time to determine the leader of the company when he died, so after his death, he did not do well, and the DuPont family itself was going to be in civil unrest for a while. Where can we launch a counterattack so soon? Second, counterattack. It’s a risk. In the last match, DuPont’s gang should have understood the power gap between us and them. If they dare to fight back, then our next blow can send them the whole family. See God. Now we have not completely denied DuPont a living, they can still live a relatively comfortable and prosperous life, how dare they completely turn their faces with us."If this analysis was heard by Scrooge, he would definitely appreciate it. Rich people cherish their lives. Unless there is a profit of 300%, it is the hatred of killing their fathers and taking their wives. As long as their money is still there, they will probably not gamble on everything and go desperately. . Only those guys who will lose nothing except the chains will bet on own everything to fight resolutely. When Scrooge was in middle school in his previous life, he studied modern Chinese history. He often wondered why the Manchu, Beiyang, and Baked Steamed buns were so accustomed to compromise when he was abroad, that he was ridiculed by his history teacher as a "traitor capital". Can’t sell for a price.” Now, Scrooge can understand this, because they realize on the one hand that own is weak, and on the other hand, they have a very moist little life, so they also realize how easy it is for others to break their pots and pans. , And how important these altars and pots are to them, in order to protect these altars and pots, they will become very easy to compromise and easily buy teammates.

Now, the DuPont family is nothing more than a dead individual. Is there one person missing from the DuPont family? Although he was excellent, he was dead, and after he died he gave himself a way out. DuPont’s gunpowder depot exploded, but the problem with the factory is not serious. As long as this is relieved, the life of the DuPont family will not be sad. And if they do a desperate fight with McDonald’s Infantry Arms Company, McDonald’s Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company, and Blackwater Security Company, do they have any hope of winning? Blackwater and McDonald’s infantry weapons are nothing but a series of giants behind the McDonald’s Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company: the Morgan family, the Rothschild family, and even a large number of large aristocratic capitals in Europe. Even if they kill Scrooge or anyone else, the benefits will definitely not fall into their hands. On the contrary, under the counterattack of this huge community of interests, they can only be crushed without suspense.

"In fact, there is one thing that best reflects DuPont's attitude, and that is our order from DuPont." Rockefeller went on to say, "Before the action, we passed a large number of propellants to DuPont. This is normal and honest. Said that DuPont’s technology is good and the quality of the gunpowder produced is very good. We have been ordering gunpowder from them. Of course, this batch of gunpowder ordered by DuPont must have exploded in the recent explosion. Well, that’s it. Said that DuPont will definitely breach the contract in terms of delivery time. I think they will soon send a representative to discuss with us about this contract. And some of the performance of this representative will show that DuPont is right. This attitude."

"But, John, the attitude can be disguised. They can completely paralyze us with the attitude of a family." Carol was still uneasy.

"Do you think the statements they made are for us to see?" Rockefeller laughed. A series of giants. Think about it, if they want revenge, who can they target? Kill you? Scrooge will let their entire family be buried for you. I guess the same is true for killing Scrooge. What about killing Scrooge? Let's not talk about it. Can’t do it. So many rich men and nobles have invested so much money in Scrooge. If Scrooge has an accident, their interests will suffer a huge loss. So if they can’t make people believe it. They have no threat. Those guys will tear them apart without our hands. Well, they are all bad guys who believe in'prefer to kill by mistake, not to put it by mistake'."
