1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 288

In times of economic difficulties, there are naturally many demonstrations. This is because the life is not good, and there will be grievances. Second, because there are so many unemployed people, it’s okay to stay at home anyway, which makes people agitate. It’s easy to come out to demonstrate. However, under normal circumstances, as long as the first wave of political demonstrations does not form a riot, it will be difficult to continue for a long time. This is also because of economic difficulties. Everyone has no money and needs to constantly look for opportunities to make money. To support yourself, so, for such a political reason, it is absolutely impossible to gather in a certain area for a long time to demonstrate under normal circumstances. But after a few days, these people still gathered near the construction site and interfered with the entry and exit of the goods.

“This is definitely not right.” Rochek said to Tim. “Mr. Tim, they can always insist on being here. This must be someone providing material support behind, otherwise it is absolutely impossible. Our people are already staring. These guys, it shouldn’t take long to learn the truth.”

…

“These guys are really interesting.” Scrooge laughed. “Unexpectedly, we are not the only ones who want to play bargains. But they still think that France is not bad enough? They are really greedy. Dorothea, Scrooge turned his head and said to Dorothea, who was holding the child and shaking, “You said, are all Jews so greedy?”

“Shhh.” Dorothea said in a low voice, “The little guy just fell asleep, don’t wake him up.” This little guy has a bad habit of always needing someone to hold him when he sleeps. Swinging in his arms, he could fall asleep by shaking slowly, but he was particularly alert, especially when he was just asleep, almost a small amount of wind and grass could wake him up. And once he woke up like this, don’t look at this little guy smiling when he came to this world, but when he woke up halfway through his sleep, his cry almost shattered the windowpanes. And, well, as long as you put him down, he will wake up almost immediately.

Scrooge opened the door and made a gesture. Cherie, the maid waiting outside, hurried over. She nodded to Dorothea first, then carefully took the little Greystone, holding him and swaying slightly, so that he could sleep. Well, it usually takes more than an hour to sway like this for this little guy to really fall asleep, and then he can put it on the bed.

Cherie went to the nursery with the baby, Dorothea walked over and asked, “Is it the Jews?”

“Well, they tracked down that someone was giving money to the demonstrators, and the money came from the’Tangral Bank’. Well, this is a medium-sized bank with a history of more than 100 years and a good reputation in Paris. Because The investment failed in the Franco-Prussian War, and his owner, Mr. Tangglaer, had to sell the bank’s shares to the Rothschild family. This bank is still called the “Tangral Bank”, but it has nothing to do with the Tanglar family. It’s a relationship.” Scrooge explained.

“These greedy Jews should be the Jews of The Underworld. Jews are not good things!” Dorothea said, “Or we let the people of Blackwater teach them a lesson.”

“Are you talking about killing their important people with a gun or just sending this bank to the sky with a wagon of explosives?” Scrooge laughed. “If this happened in the United States, maybe we could really do this. Do, but, Dorothea, you know, it’s in Europe, not in the United States. There, people are the local snakes. The Rothschilds have been there for hundreds of years. Let’s go with them. If you play hard, you may not have played them. After all, there is their place.”

“But, let’s just let them do this?” Dorothea looked very dissatisfied.

“How is it possible? France is an important stronghold for our strength to truly ascend to Europe. On this strategic issue, we have no room to retreat. Moreover, although Rothschild is strong, it is not without weakness.” Gao Zhi said, “Maybe, we should talk to Joshua, but before that, we have to prepare something.”

…

“Joshua Uncle, your letter!” A soft knock came from outside the office.

“Come in,” Joshua said, looking up from the desk. He could hear that this was the voice of his assistant and nephew Marfa. The recent economic situation is very good, and the railways under Joshua’s side are soaring, so he is in a good mood. Moreover, because of the family relationship, Joshua knew that more funds were rolling in from Europe, especially from France to United States. The flow of these funds must pass through the banking system. Therefore, the Rothschild family, which controls the largest banking system in Europe, can naturally grasp various information about the flow of these funds. This is also in this type of speculative activity. One of the reasons the family can always take advantage. However, recently, the flow of funds from France seems to have slowed down a bit. According to family analysis, it may be related to the McDonald family’s investment in France. Because the railways in the United States have a tendency to overheat, not everyone can see this. Second, the investment of the McDonald family has caused some French funds to have limited optimism about the future development of France. This has slowed the speed of capital flight from France, and this obviously does not meet the need to continue to stir up the United States railroad, nor does it meet the needs of the Rothschild family to buy low prices for French companies. Maybe we should find some time to talk to Scrooge.

At this time, his assistant Marfa had already walked in and handed a letter to Joshua.

“Sent from MacDonald’s.” Marfa said.

Joshua took the letter. It was a large envelope, very large and thick, and it seemed to contain a lot of paper. Joshua tore open the envelope, took out the letter paper inside, and looked at it. Gradually, his face turned pale, and finally, Joshua couldn’t help but cursed fiercely: “Asshole! Who is doing this! What the hell is going on in France!”

“What’s wrong, Joshua Uncle?” Marfa asked.

“These guys in France used the media to encourage local people to interfere with Mr. Scrooge McDonald’s power plant project. They are too shameless. They dare to do this for infighting! Well, Marfa, you can also look at it! “Joshua handed the letter paper to Marfa, and Marfa took it and quickly scanned it.

This new letter paper consists of two parts, one part is the content of the French newspapers and the information on the sources of funds of the protesters. From these materials, it is not difficult to see what the Rothschild family has done in France.

“Although McDonald’s investment did affect the family’s investment in France to a certain extent, we can negotiate with them first instead of directly fighting them. Although they are not as powerful as us in Europe, they are in North America. , It’s so easy for them to trouble us.” Marfa said, “they, I mean, do some people in the family want us to make a fool of yourself?”Unlike the sparsely populated MacDonald, the Rothschild family, which has a history of hundreds of years, is definitely thriving. In the McDonald family, as long as you have McDonald’s blood, as long as you are not a complete fool, you will definitely be reused. But this is not the case in the Rothschild family. You have to do better than many people before you can get the favor of the upper class and become the most important person in the family in the future. In matters concerning North America, Joshua had already made a serious mistake. Like many people, after the outbreak of the Civil War in the United States, he believed that the United States would be divided and become a country similar to South America. North America retreated, and the timing was too good. For this reason, he was constantly criticized, and now the family returned to North America, trying to re-establish roots in North America, and he finally regained this opportunity to make up for his mistakes. But obviously, some people do not want to see him succeed in North America.

As for the second part of the letter paper, it is about a lot of Rothschild family supporting Prussia before the Franco-Prussian War, and then shorting France, then lending usury, and purchasing French resources and factories at low prices.

“Joshua Uncle, these are all nonsense. We have never done some of the transactions mentioned in this.” Marfa said, “What do the people at MacDonald mean by sending this?”

“The key is not that we have not done it, but who others believe.” Joshua sighed. “Most of the specific transactions mentioned above are fabricated. The Macdonald family belongs to them in Europe. Power is limited, and they may not be able to investigate the specific transactions very clearly. But in the general direction, they are not wrong. We have indeed supported Prussia in the capital market, and we are indeed shorting France. On the European continent, we Reveal Scrooge’s old bottom in the newspaper. He is sending this over now, which means that they plan to promote these things in the newspaper. Although most of the details are fake, Marfa, you tell me, Are those French people willing to believe this?”

Marfa stayed for a long time, and then said: “Uncle, the French will believe it. Losers are always reluctant to admit that they fail because they are too bad, but are more willing to blame others. This is also why they immediately believed us to McDonald. One of the reasons for Na’s propaganda. Moreover, we are Jewish and we are naturally suspected and despised by them. If they propagate this way, the French will definitely believe it.”

“You are right. This is our greatest weakness. We are evil pagans. This is our original sin! As long as you say bad things about the Jews, no one will believe it. We are rich, and we are also powerful. , But our strength is always incomparable with the country, and we Jews do not have a motherland. Even if we are truly willing to be loyal to a certain country, they will not trust us. Once such a large-scale propaganda war is fought, Eastern Europe’s The situation may be repeated in France.” Joshua sighed again.

“But the Germans will support us.” Marfa said.

“What about the British? You should be very clear about their usual policies. Now stand on the side of Germany. Is it wise? In fact, United States is the best refuge. It’s a pity… well, let me prepare for it. We have to go as soon as possible. Visit Mr. MacDonald.”
