Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

Before John Morgan could answer, Thomas Mellon said coldly: "This is the situation now. If anything happens to Mr. John, just go back."

John Morgan saw the cold-faced Thomas Mellon and secretly hated him: "If I hadn't been invited by the Rothschild family to help your Mellon family, it would be strange that we would interfere in this matter. It's better now." , as soon as he sees that he is losing money or the situation is not right, he will turn his back on others.”

Vanderbilt looked at the embarrassed John Morgan and sighed deliberately: "Actually, the big angle is a businessman. Who knew that such an unfortunate thing would happen? Now we are all in the same boat. What a shame." Each person has an extra brain, let’s think of a solution together.”

Thomas Mellon looked at John Morgan who looked grateful. Although he understood that Vanderbilt was sowing discord, he had no choice but to nod his head and said: "In this case, let's discuss it together."

British Empire, London.

"France, the Morgan family Mellon, the Mellon family actually want to rebel?" The Lionel Rothschild family was very shocked. In a fit of anger, he even smashed all the teapots made in the Far East 500 years ago that he had treasured for many years.

"Boss, should we attack the Morgan family? This time the Morgan family went too far. It's really ugly."

Barrett is Lionel's personal financial steward and the London steward of the Rothschild family, so Lionel does not hide many things from the other party.

Even because he was the helper left to him by his father, he was quite easy to use.

Barrett's proposal made her a little excited. No one wanted to be offended, let alone a world-class super capitalist like him.

But in the end, he resisted this idea, waved his hand, and said: "It is not the time yet. Even if we want to mess with the other side, we have to wait until the Dutch are suppressed, and then slowly 'rectify' them."

"Boss, Rockefeller's side," Barrett hesitated.

Lionel Rothschild knew what he was going to say and said with a smile: "That is the ancestral home of our Rothschild family. Prussia is currently powerful, so it is not appropriate to interfere too much in Rockefeller's internal affairs."

He turned back to look at his old butler, "This guy Bismarck is not easy to deal with."

Barrett: "The boss means books. Is the Rockefeller family too close to Berlin now?"

"Otherwise, what do you think?" Lionel said: "The United States is currently in disarray, which is the best time for us to enter. Barrett, help me send an email to my uncle James, thanking him for letting Paris come forward to make the DuPont family Support us"

Barrett's face changed slightly. James Rothschild wanted to seize power. He shouldn't have. Has he forgotten the ancestral precepts of Meyer Rothschild?

Seeing Lionel's victory in hand, Barrett was a little worried. Will Rothschild in London become a subsidiary of Paris?

On November 20, 1868, Vanderbilt, known as the "Captain" of the Commonwealth of America, began to close the net with the support of John Morgan, the heir to the Morgan family, and Thomas Mellon, the head of the Mellon family. The speculators in Austria fulfilled the contract and handled the delivery for him. The same tragedy as the parent company of Halle happened.

Short-selling speculators went to the market to buy shares of the Hudson Railroad Company, only to find that there were no sellers in the market because all the shares of the Hudson Railroad were in the hands of Vanderbilt.

At the same time, the truth finally came out and came to the surface.

It turns out that the former largest shareholder of the Hudson Railway Company, Chairman Teslin, had already signed a transfer contract with Vanderbilt three months ago. The contract was to transfer 25% of his shares in the Hudson Railway Company to The delivery was completed on November 25, 1868.

As the news broke out, people in the market immediately went crazy. Many people cried with joy because they did not sell their stocks, and some really cried because they sold them at a high price not long ago. out of their own stocks.

The stock price rose from $115 to $190 almost overnight. Vanderbilt finally took over the only two railroads in New York City. At the same time, as many world-famous newspapers commented, he completed The most magnificent battle in financial history wiped out 7 million US dollars in the pockets of the speculators who tried to kill him in less than a month.

This air squeeze battle is also considered to be one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of global financial operations from ancient times to the present.

Even the European Times, the most influential newspaper in Europe and even the world, declared on November 28, 1868: "The Wall Street market has never seen such a successful stock short squeeze."

"What a Vanderbilt, he is indeed the person I like. As long as he takes over the Hudson Railroad Company, the Dutch will soon gain another foothold on the economic map of the United States.

"The maritime transportation giants have succeeded in getting involved in the land railway giants, and the Dutch are more stable on the economic map. Capital, maritime transportation, land transportation, etc. are expanding from east to west, north and south, and the capital of the Dutch is spreading rapidly in the United States, and the political map is also following Andrew reached new heights when he became President of the United States.

As these gradually penetrate into all aspects of the United States, the influence of the Dutch will be enough to affect the future development of the United States and even Europe and the United States. "

"Your Majesty, now that Vanderbilt has successfully landed, what should we do next?" Dutch Prime Minister Tolbeck asked. In recent years, the development of the Netherlands has been so smooth that even he, the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, finds it unbelievable. Everything is progressing in an orderly manner under the guidance of His Majesty. The outside world sees that the Netherlands seems to be constantly struggling and resisting. , in fact, what they don’t know is that many things are in their deductions, such as the Dutch wooing the European team composed of France and Prussia on the South Africa issue to support the Boers in their fight against the British, causing the British to suffer heavy losses.

In the end, the Netherlands' "compromise" force forced the Dutch-born Boers to leave South Africa, and the British gave up the Australian continent to the Netherlands in order to win that strategic location.

Many people believe that the Netherlands should not give up South Africa, the strategic chokepoint between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. The Australian mainland is too remote, and the Netherlands would suffer a huge loss if it were replaced.

It is this view that caused a lot of controversy in the Netherlands. Even many remnants of the old aristocracy expressed dissatisfaction with their ancestors who sacrificed their lives to fight for some territory and are now exchanging them.

William IV looked at Tolbeck and smiled and said: "The matter is not over yet. Vanderbilt seems to have won. In fact, it means to conquer the city first and wait. The Rothschild family and others have not yet Let’s start real operations.”

"Prime Minister Tolbeck, don't forget, neither the DuPont family nor the Rockefellers are fuel-efficient. I don't think they can escape Rothschild's financial control at present. Moreover, it is just a small matter at the moment. Don't forget, Royal families and governments from all over the world are watching the battle from the sidelines.”
