Reborn American Giants

"Sir, do you want to invest in this food company?" Nathan asked in a surprised tone: "According to my opinion, this food company is now insolvent and can only wait for the court to come and seize it for auction.

What other investment value can there be?”

"Haha, Nathan, I'm going to tell you an investment principle now. You must remember it clearly," Victor put down the documents in his hands and said to his personal lawyer: "Putting money in a bank means nothing to me.

It's just a bunch of meaningless numbers. As someone I trust, you understand my situation very well. I must always pay attention to everything that can increase my "influence".

Compared to investing in financial investment products, I prefer industries that can affect more people."

After a pause, and looking at Nathan's thoughtful look, Victor continued: "You know, in addition to owning a certain amount of private property, I am also a member of the San Salvador City Council, and I also have political pursuits.

, I intend to make you my chief of staff, so when you look at the problem, you must not only consider it from the perspective of economic interests, but also need to consider it politically. What is El Salvador's main export trade product?"

"Alpine coffee," the answer came out of his mouth, and Nathan quickly understood what Victor meant. After understanding his situation, he also learned about the situation in El Salvador, with rampant civil war, political chaos, soaring prices, and serious inflation.

, the country's economy is on the verge of collapse.

However, the export of El Salvador's alpine coffee, which was originally the largest export-generated product and a flagship product in international trade, is in the hands of a few large plantation families.

Victor has taken a fancy to Edmond Food Company. In addition to being able to influence more people, there is another advantage, that is, he can use Edmond Food Company's American background to get in touch with those large plantations.

In the case of family interests, let the other party take advantage of the situation and have temporary hesitation.

"Good, it looks like you understand."

"Then sir, now we should find someone to find out the details of Edmond Food Company." After thinking about these things, Nathan quickly came up with a plan. Of course, the first part was to investigate Edmond first.

The specific situation of the German company is to see how bad the situation is, and then come up with a more specific investment plan for the next step.

"Well, we can find someone to introduce to this Miss Patricia first and listen to her personal opinion first," Victor said towards Laurie Young who was walking quickly from the aisle of the bank office area holding something.

He shook his head.

"Ah, Mr. Jose, I kept you waiting for a long time. Here is your checkbook and personal seal. Please check it." Laurian put a pile of things in front of Victor and picked up a silver hexagonal

Key told Victor: "This is what you are doing at Citibank."

The password for the exclusive safe key is the same as the number engraved on the key. Anyone who gets this key and matches the password on the key can open the private safe inside the head office, so please keep it properly.

Don’t lose it.”

"Thank you very much, Manager Lauryn."

"Ah, Mr. Jose, it is my honor to serve you," Laurian said with a charming smile on his face and an exaggerated tone: "But please wait a moment, the data entry will take a little time.

Copies of all documents will be sent by my staff soon."

"It's not urgent." With a few polite words, Victor took the pile of things on the table and handed them to Ato for safekeeping. He pointed at the thick document on the table and said to Laurian: "I don't know.

This...Patricia..."

"Miss Patricia Ellen Edmond, Edmond Food Company..." Lauryn looked at the direction of Victor's finger, but couldn't remember Patricia's full name for a while, so he spoke quickly

added.

"Yes, this is the Edmond Food Company." Victor tapped his fingers twice on the title page of the memo. "I am very interested in this Edmond Food Company. I wonder if Manager Lauryn can make an appointment for us.

Meet this Miss Patricia."

"Uh," Laurian seemed a little embarrassed. The bank staff privately matched up the two clients. In principle, it was an obvious violation of Citibank's rules and regulations, so he didn't say anything for a while.

Victor had already expected this, and he said to the embarrassed Lauryn: "Of course I won't let your help go in vain, Manager Laurian, as long as you introduce us to each other, I will pay

You have 30,000 US dollars, and if our cooperation is successful, there will be more introduction fees paid to you."

It was obvious that Lauryn was a little excited when he heard that Victor would pay him a referral fee of 30,000 US dollars. His nostrils opened and closed rapidly twice, and after a while he said hesitantly: "Mr. Jose, do you have any questions about E-mail?"

I think you haven’t done any investigation into the situation of Demond Food Company. In addition to the apparent shortage of funds and debt pressure, there is another situation that I think you will definitely want to know...

Even if the Salvadoran government forces repelled the guerrillas and Edmond Foods regained control of the coffee plantation near Santa Ana Volcano, I think Miss Patricia would probably not be able to run the coffee plantation smoothly.

, In addition to the above reasons, there are other people who are also coveting this high-quality land..."

"Oh? I wonder if it would be convenient for Manager Lauryn to reveal who this "other person" is?"

After thinking for a while, Laurian was indeed interested in the twenty thousand dollars that Victor had promised. He pondered for a moment and said to Victor: "The people who are interested in this coffee plantation are members of the Owert family. This family is a big family.

The plantation family owns large plantations in El Salvador, and as a local leader, it also has very strong political power. Anyway, I have no hope that Miss Patricia can keep the coffee plantation.

, that’s why I rejected her loan application.”

"The Owert family," Victor muttered silently. He felt that he had definitely interacted with members of this family, but he just couldn't remember it for a moment. But Laurian was right, the Owert family is in El Salvador.

It's indeed quite powerful.

As a traditional agricultural country, El Salvador relies on the plantation economy as its main national economic support. 42.5% of the country's people rely on land for food. It can be said that whoever controls the land has the right to speak and has strong strength.

However, since World War I, most of the country's arable land has been concentrated in the hands of large planters. By the 1960s, 75% of the country's land was controlled by 13 families.

The development-oriented families constitute the fourteen families that control most of the country's economic and political power.

The Owert family is one of these thirteen plantation families. They control a large number of people and means of production by relying on the land they control. They are naturally powerful. In the local area, they are like a local emperor.

But Victor will not be afraid of this. There is no way that a group of rich people in the countryside can make him give up his decision.

"I understand this. Thank you, Manager Lauryn, for your concern, but we still ask you to introduce Miss Patricia to us."

Good words can't persuade a damn ghost. Since Victor insisted, Laurian wouldn't care about his life or death. He shrugged his shoulders and grabbed the phone on the table. He quickly dialed the number on his client record without saying anything specific.

Who just informed Miss Patricia that there was an investor who was very interested in Edmond Food Company. With the current situation of Edmond Food Company, any potential investor would believe it.

That Miss Patricia would be like a drowning man grasping at straws to save his life, clinging to it with all his might.

Hanging the receiver to his ear, Laurian turned around and asked Victor: "Mr. Jose, when and where will you meet?"

"Tomorrow at noon, just at the Marriott Hotel where I'm staying," Victor quickly responded after a little thought.

Lauryn turned around, whispered a few words to Patricia on the other end of the phone, and finally hung up the phone gently.
