Act 218 Rockefeller

Nick completed his brain supplement, and for a while he didn't know whether he wanted his hair to grow or not.

If he can grow it, he can naturally restore his past appearance, but if he can't grow it, he can make a lot of small money.

Although this money may not be earned by him in the end, even if Doug earns it, he is happy.

Because, he is Doug's employee, could it be that Doug has made money because of this, and will not make some representations for his "sacrifice"?

Absolutely!

Because Nick can be sure that Doug is not a stingy boss.

It's not based on what Doug said, it's based on what Doug did.

The past few months at Claydon Investment Bank have been the happiest Nick has ever been with him.

First of all, here he is no longer the kind of person who has to swallow his anger and be a turtle in the face of his boss.

Because, here his boss is only Doug.

And Doug doesn't ask a lot of of him, and he doesn't even have to go to work every day. Just make some demands on him, such as how much money he must borrow each month.

Of course, this does not mean that the money can be lent to anyone.

After the loan is issued, there will be a special person who will be responsible for the review.

If any problems are found in the process of investment and lending, they will be reported, and the Ministry of Supervision will punish them accordingly according to the reported situation.

Although there are many restrictions, this feeling of lending your money to others is still very refreshing.

Complete the task in any month and you will get a bonus.

Now that Nick has been working for almost half a year, he now earns enough money to buy a piece of land and build a house in New Haven.

However, he didn't want to buy a house here at all.

Because for him, New Haven is a good place, but it starts to be a small place.

One day, he will return to the financial center of the United States, Wall Street in New York.

Because, whether he leaves here to work in other financial institutions, or continues to expand here.

He has a chance to return to Wall Street.

Now, he is even more convinced of the second year.

Just continue to work here, and one day, he will return to Wall Street with Claydon Investment Bank.

Because, Doug has enough strength to confront those Wall Street financiers.

And the result of victory in the confrontation is not to destroy Wall Street, but to integrate into it.

Because, only by integrating into this financial heart can we really manipulate the financial of the United States.

Of course, this was just wishful thinking.

What exactly Doug thinks is unknown.

Still, he made a choice and said, "Boss, I want to continue working at Claydon Investment Bank!"

His affirmative voice was very sonorous.

Doug looked at the serious expression of the boiled egg, although he wanted to laugh a little, but he still walked over, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on!"

"Hmm!"

Nick replied heavily.

After Nick left, Doug sat back down.

Claydon Investment Bank invests not only in an "idea", but also in an "entity".

Of course, this kind of entity is not limited to ordinary entities.

Buying more than just a house, buying it and waiting for it to appreciate in value means something that has never been there before.

Lately, Doug has focused on mechanics.

He wanted to find a power machine that could operate efficiently.

However, the ideal internal combustion engine, he has not yet found.

He just saw a wide variety of external combustion engines.

Perhaps, the vast majority of people may not be familiar with external combustion engines.

In fact, the steam engine is a kind of external combustion engine.

In addition, there are many external combustion engines.

However, what Doug was looking for was not really an external combustion engine.

This is because the external combustion engine is simple to implement, but the thermal efficiency is not high, and at the same time, the volume is too large.

Doug hopes that within ten years, he will be able to build a world-changing means of transportation, that is, the car.

Cars are definitely cheaper than trains compared to trains, although the same amount of transportation is certainly lower in terms of long-term use.

However, the car has a very good point, that is, it is more flexible, both the price of the car itself and the price of transportation in the early stage are lower.

Most crucially, the United States has abundant oil resources.

Doug wasn't a big fan of finding oil deposits, a way to make a fortune that bordered on gambling.

But he was very fond of oil and its ancillary products.

The petroleum industry is an important part of modern industry.

Even the coal tar that Tom and Doug Chemical now needs can find a substitute in the composition of the petroleum.

Even, the petrochemical products that can be replaced are lower in cost and better in effect than coal chemicals.

The oil industry is undoubtedly the mainstream of the future.

Doug thought that if he could find the internal combustion engine directly at Claydon Investment Bank and invest in it, would he be able to occupy a large part of the automotive market.

However, after searching for a long time, he still did not find it.

He had realized that he was looking in the wrong direction.

First of all, the development of the internal combustion engine has developed with the development of the petroleum industry.

In the beginning, there was only one product of chemical industry that was valuable.

It is anthracite kerosene, which is the lamp oil of oil lamps.

Because, even if the other substances are separated, there is no use.

For the capitalists, of course, this kind of waste is not seen.

Therefore, the properties of other products of petroleum were experimented to see if they could be found where they could be applied.

For example, the heaviest part, the asphalt, can be used in buildings and roads, while the lighter parts have found more applications.

This includes, but is not limited to, candles, fertilizers, plastics, gasoline, diesel, and many more......

Doug wanted to find the internal combustion engine when gasoline had not yet entered the market in large quantities and no one was trying to discover its application scenarios.

It is tantamount to looking for a rocket in primitive times.

Therefore, the right thing to do should be, invest in refineries.

Crude oil is refined in a refinery to separate the various substances and then find application scenarios for each of these substances.

And how did the original refinery make a profit?

Very simple!

Kerosene is enough!

Learn from history, refine the best kerosene, and promote smokeless safety oil lamps.

With low prices and excellent quality, candles are a luxury item that will be eliminated.

Of course, at the same time, there is also the competition with petroleum kerosene, which is actually produced from coal.

However, coal kerosene is more expensive and of inferior quality to oil.

As long as you don't make too many mistakes, you will definitely not lose in the confrontation with kerosene.

Doug pressed the bell on the table, and although it looked very attractive outside the door, the secretary lady who couldn't remember Doug's name walked in.

"Check out if anyone looking for investment wants to open an oil refinery. ”

"Yes. ”

The secretary lady swayed her ass and left.

At the same time, a young man happened to come to seek investment when he heard that the Claydon investment bankers were stupid and had a lot of money.

The young man named Rockefeller was in his early twenties, but he was already very successful compared to his peers.

Although his father was a liar, after graduating from vocational school at the age of 20, he worked in the company for two years, and later started his own business with his friend Clark and became the boss.

He has escaped poverty and hunger, and has succeeded in the eyes of others.

However, Rockefeller, who now runs the agricultural products company, felt a strong sense of crisis.

This sense of crisis comes from his understanding of industry.

Although, to some extent, people always have to eat, agricultural companies will still have room to survive even after 10,000 years.

However, unlike industrial goods, grain grows from the land.

Everywhere Rockefeller went, these fields could only produce grain once a year.

Grain can only be produced once a year, which means that agricultural products will be left far behind in terms of quantity by industrial products.

And quantity means scale, and the scale of quantity means the scale of profit.

Therefore, he wanted to make a career change.

He wanted to go into industrial production.

However, it is a pity that the capital winter of the past two years has not made it so easy for him to find investment.

Moreover, when those people saw that he was running an agricultural product company, but wanted to engage in industrial production, they felt that he was extremely unreliable, so they did not invest in him.

After all, no matter what investor is, the purpose of investing is not to lose money, but to make money.

Just when he was wondering if he would talk about it in a year or two, he suddenly heard about Claydon Investment Bank, and he heard that it was a Kaizi in New Haven.

So, he took his plan book and came to the city of New Haven.

When he came to Claydon Investment Bank, he found that there were a lot of people here.

Therefore, he could only wait in line, follow the line, and wait slowly.

Of course, when he got to the front of the line, someone asked him to buy a place in the queue, and he didn't agree.

As for the plan book in his suitcase, it is a plan book about the oil refinery.

Why would he want to build an oil refinery?

It's not because he knows that there are many products that can develop a whole set of chemical industries.

But because he discovered that there are a lot of oil deposits.

And these oil deposits inevitably need a downstream industry.

These oil capitalists are like one gambler after another.

They will not be willing to do downstream industries.

Instead, he hoped that he would spend $1,000 to buy a piece of land, and a well would multiply it a hundredfold.

But think about it with a simple idea.

According to the current frenzied posture, if more and more oil is produced, will more refineries be needed?

And these oil capitalists, in turn, are not willing to build their own refineries.

Therefore, the price of oil will definitely get lower and lower in the future.

And oil itself is very valuable.

Whether it's replacing coal on trains or lamp oil used to make kerosene lamps, there are a wide range of scenes.

At that time, the price of oil will be lower than that of coal.

Doesn't it mean that oil can eat up the coal market?

At this time, the barbaric production of oil wells has no bargaining power in the face of the refinery.

As long as you control the refinery, you control the wells.

However, to build an oil refinery, it takes a lot of money.

Rockefeller, although he ran his own agricultural company, had a few thousand dollars left after dividing it with his business partners.

Compared to when he worked for others, it has increased several times.

But how can a few thousand dollars be built into an oil refinery?

Perhaps, by selling the agricultural company, you can barely scrape together the initial construction funds.

But unfortunately, this is not his own factory, his partner Clark, who thinks that the refinery or something, is too risky.

It's not that you can't live now, so why take so much risk?

Why not do some solid business?

It's time for Rockefeller.

"Sir, what kind of project do you want to start a business?"

It was a small living room, and in this living room, opposite Rockefeller, was a very well-dressed man, but still wearing a hat and sunglasses in the room.

"The project I want to invest in is an oil refinery. Rockefeller said.

"How did you come up with the idea to invest in an oil refinery?" asked the person opposite.

"That's right......" Rockefeller began.

One of Rockefeller's specialties is persuasion.

Therefore, he can get so much salary and so much income.

The person on the other side was quickly persuaded by his words.

"Well, you're right, it's true that there are all kinds of chaos in the oil extraction industry right now. In such a situation, it is not a good choice to invest in the oil extraction industry, while investment in the oil refining industry has good prospects.

And in this case, I think it's a good idea to invest in the refining industry.

However, as you can tell from your proposal, the budget required to build a refinery is large.

With such a large amount, I don't have a way to get through it.

Therefore, I need to take you to meet the President of Claydon Investment Bank, His Excellency Doug Claydon.

Please prepare. ”

"Is that today?"

"It's today. ”

"Is this now?"

"It's now. ”

"It's not that ...... Is it difficult to meet Lord Doug, even harder than getting an investment?"

The man in the room wearing sunglasses and a hat said, "That's true for other investments, after all, the time of the governor is very valuable."

But, you know, there are exceptions to everything, and when you fancy the refining industry, don't the elders see it?"

Rockefeller seemed to have an instant realization.

He walked behind the man who was wearing a hat, but the back of his head was still empty.

I went upstairs, walked through the long hallway, knocked on the door, entered, and met an unusually young man.

"Stop wearing hats and sunglasses in the house. ”

The young man said.

"Yes!"

At this time, Rockefeller saw a shiny bald head.
