Chapter 283: Solving the Problem of Talent
"Then buy some banks. ”
John was quick to give a solution.
The acquisition of ready-made banks can not only solve the problem of stores, but also solve the problem of talents, and more importantly, it can also obtain the customers of these banks, which can be said to kill multiple birds with one stone, but it is a bit expensive, and only a few can be acquired to solve the problem, not a large-scale acquisition, otherwise the funds needed will be too huge, and it is difficult for the old Morgan to explain.
"Which banks do you think we should buy?" Buying a bank is a big deal, and Smith doesn't have the right to decide.
"You put together a copy of the bank information in the United States and give it to me, and I'll think about it and give you the answer when the time comes. John didn't dare to pat his head and say which bank to buy, he needed to look at the information, and decide according to the size of the bank, its operating conditions, and its main place of operation, otherwise it would be fun to acquire some repetitive ones. For example, JPMorgan Bank is mainly located in the northern and coastal areas of the United States, and its main business is bonds, trust business, and storage and other commercial businesses are relatively small, so John must find some banks in the middle, south, and west of the United States that focus on commercial business, so as to complement each other.
Smith was very efficient, and the old man handed over a copy of the National Bank to John in one day.
After getting the information and studying it carefully, John took out a page of letter paper and wrote on it the name of the bank he wanted to buy.
First Bank of Chicago, the second largest commercial bank in the Midwest after the "Continental Bank", is the right size, and the location is just right to make up for the Morgan Bank.
Wells Fargo, this is the bank that Wells Fargo is not the bank that will compete with ICBC in the future, he will not merge with the Northwest Bank in 1998 to become a giant, but now he is just a big bank in the western region. As for the acquisition of it, there will be no Wells Fargo in the future, this is not John's concern, there is no rich country, there are rich people, there is wealth...... There are many banks in the United States, and the acquisition of Wells Fargo is also a merger into Morgan Bank, although the name is gone, but the property is still there.
National City Bank, the Eastern Regional Bank, is not as big as Wells Fargo, but it can solve the problems of the Eastern Region for Morgan Bank.
Midland Bank, the main bank in the southern region, was bought by Wells Fargo in the previous life, but now that John has bought Wells Fargo, he will not leave it behind.
After John wrote down the four banks that needed to be acquired on the letterhead, after some consideration, and waited until the final decision was made, he asked Dani to draft the acquisition documents and hand them over to the old Morgan for review, and the old Morgan looked at the names of the four banks and said nothing, and directly stamped the letter documents.
If John wants to rectify Morgan Bank and launch an online trading system, it must be supported by offline banks, so the elder Morgan has already calculated that John will buy other banks, so as to keep up with the speed, and he even calculated that John will definitely buy five or six small and medium-sized banks, but he didn't expect one or two less than he imagined.
After getting the stamped documents, John transferred the documents to Smith, and at the same time instructed Smith to start the acquisition as soon as possible, the matter of Morgan Bank finally came to an end, and John could finally take a break.
John in the rest wants to go to activities, the weather is cold and very suitable for hunting, he wants to hunt bears or wild boars back, the 260 square kilometers of primeval forest where Morgan Manor is located belongs to the military restricted area, ordinary people can not enter, Morgan's family has been here for more than 100 years, so this primeval forest is flooded with animals, especially bears, this guy has no natural enemies in the forest, so a large number of breeding, until now there are at least more than 2,000 bears, more than 1,000 wild boars, and a large number of wolves in this forest. If it weren't for the fact that there was a dense minefield of 200 meters long on the outermost part of Morgan Manor, these guys would have broken into Morgan Manor a long time ago, but the minefield was messed up by these guys, and every few days either a bear was killed or a wild boar was blown up, and then they had to go to the new place to bury mines, which made the Morgan family tired of it.
Deciding to go hunting, John changed into an army camouflage uniform, which is resistant to dirt, wear, tear, and concealment, making it suitable for hunting.
After changing his clothes, John still needs to get equipment, he can't go bear hunting with his bare hands, Morgan's guns are in the basement, managed by the secret service, and there are a lot of varieties in it, from pistols to rifles to bazookas, grenades, because there is everything, it is an arsenal.
"Coulson, give me a Light 50 and an M9 pistol, oh...... By the way, take another M9 and use more bayonets. John came to the arsenal and looked at the caretaker and commanded.
"Light 50" is a nickname, the official name of this gun is Barrett M82A1, it belongs to a heavy special-purpose sniper rifle, this gun has an effective range of more than 2000 meters, using 0.50 inch ammunition, if you replace it with an armor-piercing bullet, a distance of 500 meters can penetrate more than 10 mm of armor steel plates, so no matter how big a bear is a shot can solve the problem, and the effective range is long, it can open up the distance between it and the prey, it is simply the best choice for hunting bears.
M9 pistol, melee weapon, Barrett is too big for melee, if you get close to the bear, then you have to use the M9, but this gun is a bit powerful, unless you can hit the bear head with a dozen shots, otherwise you will inevitably have to have a hand-to-hand fight with the bear in the end.
This is also the reason why John wants an extra military stab, in case of bad luck more than a dozen shots did not knock the bear down, at least there is a knife in his hand to fight, although John does not think that he can win the bear, but at the critical moment with a knife in his hand, it is better than bare-handed.
"Boss! What ammo do you need Barrett? Coulson asked after placing the equipment John needed on the table, Barrett could use a lot of ammunition, and the power of the ammunition was different.
"En......"
John thought about it.
"Get me armor-piercing bullets. ”
The primeval forest of Morgan's house is full of American black bears, this guy can reach more than 2 meters in length and weigh more than 200 kilograms, so John thinks that such a large body has to use armor-piercing bullets.
But Dani's on the side exclaimed.
"Boss, do you want to be like the last time you hunted wild boars?" she was very upset with John's behavior of fighting mosquitoes with a cannon, Barrett was known as a steel cannon, and if he used armor-piercing shells, helicopters and tanks could be defeated, not to mention flesh-and-blood black bears.
"That'...... That's good with ordinary bullets. When John heard Daini's words, he remembered the last time he hunted, he found a few wild boars in the woods, and after aiming the largest boar with Barrett, he shot down, and the wild boar was torn into several parts and flew into the sky in an instant, and there was no good meat, and finally all the hounds were cheapened.
