Link wanted to talk to Fren about it. But Flon wasn't in New York, so he had to give up.

New York is over. At noon the next day, he was about to return to Huazhou with Song Xianhe.

Tiger drove the car to the hotel gate and called him, and he walked out of the hotel. The hotel gate is more than ten meters away from the car, and he can walk in a few seconds. But he almost couldn't walk. As soon as he left the hotel door, he was surrounded by a group of reporters. Fortunately, several bodyguards blocked him, otherwise countless mobile phones would have poked him in the mouth.

The reporter shouted at him like a flock of macaws, and he heard several of the questions in the cacophony.

"Mr. Hans, is your speech at the Council of 100 forum a formal declaration of war on whites?"

"Mr. Hans, what do you think about the fact that the New York police say that your accusations are completely unfounded, that the New York police are acting in accordance with the law, and that you are provoking contradictions in New York society?" The New York police did suggest that Link's remarks would strain New York's already rather bad population relations. But I definitely didn't dare to say that Link was provoking. But that's what the journalist said.

"Mr. Hans, you offer a billion dollars for anti-discrimination, and some people think it's too much. Say a few words, please! ”

……

He saw that even if there were bodyguards, they would not be able to leave, so he raised his hand and said, "I answer three questions!" ”

"I have quite a few white friends, and the majority of the company employees are white. That proves that I've never been hostile to the white race. I am waging war against the white supremacists, and in my eyes they are the cancer of the United States and the world, the scum hidden in humanity! All who are righteous in their hearts should oppose them. ”

"As for the New York police account, I will not comment until they provide a statement that corroborates their account. However, I would like to say that the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the Jipan people back then was also said to be for the liberation of all mankind. After all, the United States, along with Britain, Australia, and other countries at the Paris Peace Conference, vetoed their proposal for 'racial equality'. ”

This made all the reporters in an uproar. This is not only exposing the black history of the United States, but also poking at the biggest sore spot of the United States. This sore spot has not been alleviated by the gradual discontinuation of World War II. The more developed the United States became, the more Americans felt that the bombing of Pearl Harbor was a great shame.

Link ignored them and continued: "As for those who criticize me for funding the anti-discrimination movement, I send them four Chinese words: What do you do? ”

At this time, the security guard of the hotel also came out, and they separated the reporters, allowing Link and them to get into the car smoothly.

A reporter asked aloud at his car through the security guard wall: "Mr. Hans, can you tell me what those four Chinese mean?" ”

The door hadn't been completely closed yet, and Link had just heard the question. He opened the car door and said, "Those four Chinese words mean: I may have stepped on their tails, that's why they jumped out." Most likely, they are racists. ”

After he finished speaking, he closed the car door and said to Tiger, "Drive!" ”

He knew he had made a big fuss this time. But this was also expected by him.

He did make a big fuss. In the past, there have been many people who have criticized racial discrimination in the United States, including social activists, politicians, celebrities and ordinary people. There are American and international ones, and even the United Nations Human Rights Council has often criticized the United States for its serious shortcomings in human rights. But no one would be as straightforward as he was. Those people or organizations are usually criticized to the end with expectations at best. And not to have any action.

And some people say that Link is at war, and he is indeed at war. One billion dollars, equivalent to the operating expenses of the United Nations Human Rights Council for several years. That's a lot of money that can keep a lot of people active. Although he did not use force, he was paying people to uncover the fig leaf that the United States had maintained.

The darkest side of American society is likely to be completely exposed to the world as a result.

However, no matter how angry the U.S. federal government is at his words and deeds, it can only pinch its nose and endure it, at most secretly saying that Link is a dog and a mouse meddling.

The United States is the "most democratic" country, so the government dares to deny that it supports acts against racial discrimination?

Even if he offended the federal government, Link didn't take it very seriously. Just worried that his company would be more "taken care of" when it came to running it. He had to be more careful not to let them get the hang of it.

When he returned to Huazhou, there were only two little ones at home. They were cared for by Ms. Hemer. Jessica went to work. Hannah hasn't finished school yet.

He looked at the time and took the two little babies to Fox to pick up Hannah. Then he took his three children to the Ozette Bank building.

"Oh, you brought Catelyn and Evan with you!" Jessica saw the two little ones who were coquettish to her, and smiled and hugged the two for a while. "You've just come home?"

Laughing and letting Hannah play with his brother and sister first, he took Jessica's hand and sat down on the reception couch, saying, "I'll take Caitlyn and them out when I get off the plane." I think they're definitely going to miss Mom! ”

"I miss them too! It's only been a few hours, but I've wanted to get home from work right away. Jessica said with a smile. News says you've done something big in New York! ”

Link smiled and said, "Yes, it's bigger than I had planned. "He didn't think he'd have to pay that much money before he went. With 1.1 billion dollars, fewer than 1,000 families in the United States may be able to own that much wealth.

Jessica kissed him twice on the lips and said, "You're doing the right thing." I think you'll be an American hero for it! But will your money become more strained as a result? ”

Link shook his head and said, "Of course not, that money can't be spent in a year." The rest of the money makes no difference whether it is in the Hans Fund or in my hands. ”

The Hans Fund is now run by Morris as a risk assessor, and has tighter control over the budget. 1.1 billion yuan may be used for four or five years.

He changed the subject and asked, "Can you get used to it in the past two days?" ”

"Of course, I felt like I had never left."

"That's good!" Link smiled and said. "Let's go home and talk again, I'll go up and talk to Claire."

Claire is a busy person right now. The network of Ozette Bank has been expanded, although it is still focused on agriculture. However, in addition to agricultural loans, he is promoting the agricultural insurance business of Ozer Bank. At the same time, the bank that has already opened also has some things for him to deal with.

Bank of Texas and Bank of Atlanta are independent banks, and their business has expanded into the realm of individual business. But the business of Ozette Bank also needs to cooperate with those two banks, so he needs to understand the operation plan of the two banks, and communicate with the two banks.

Finally, there is one more job that has been busy lately. They are preparing to open a third bank. This time, the market target is the northern United States. Agriculture in those states was equally developed. The opening of a new bank will help to promote the business of Benehans.

But Cargill's headquarters are in Minnesota. That's a tough bone to gnaw on, too.

"Welcome back, Link!" Claire was busy, looked up and saw him come in, put down the workstation and laughed. "How have the girls in New York changed now compared to before? Is it more enthusiastic or prettier? ”

Link hugged his increasingly fat body and said, "Maybe it's both." But I haven't seen it. ”

"Okay. You're so boring! Claire sat back in her seat. What are you looking for me? ”

"I wonder how the third bank is going?"

"It's up to you to decide on the dividend."

Their third bank headquarters will be in Minneapolis City. The investment remains at $6 billion. Neither Claire nor Neil had enough cash, though. If they still want to continue investing, there are only two ways, one is to wait for the company to pay dividends, and the second is to borrow from the bank.

Their best bet is, of course, to borrow from Ozette Bank. But they don't want to use the bank's money.

Link laughed and said, "Banks always have to pay dividends. Isn't it? ”

"Then only the Ozette Bank needs to pay dividends, but the other two will not."

In fact, the only one who is really short of money may be Claire. Neil's financial investment company has made a lot of money in the past year, and the two of them own 100% of the company's shares, and a huge dividend at the end of the year is inevitable.

Although the business of Ozette Bank was spread, it did not make a lot of money, and Claire's dividends the year before last were not only invested, but the rest of the money was used to pay off his debts. So he may be "poor" now.

Claire thought for a moment and said, "Since you're here, I also happen to have two things to discuss with you." ”

"You say."

"Are you going to give out bonuses this year?"

In fact, companies that usually have year-end bonuses have them, but many American companies will have a more rigorous reward system. If it's cash, it's a few more weeks' salary. Usually it's a month or two. And everyone's salary is different. So that kind of proximity can also represent their contribution and importance.

Claire only asked when she saw that some of Link's companies under his name were giving out huge bonuses.

Link shook his head and said, "Just distribute it according to last year's method." It's up to you to decide. ”

Claire was even happier with his decision, and now that the business network has been rolled out, the bank has a large number of employees. If higher incentives are issued, the labor cost is a big pressure.

The human heart is never satisfied. If Link gives all the employees a hefty bonus this time because the bank starts making money, those employees will only demand more and more rewards.

"And. Your gold mine is going to start next year, and it's time to mine it! ”

Link nodded and said, "Yes." It will be officially mined in May next year. How? You're hitting the gold with your idea? ”

The wasteland where the gold mines are located has only two seasons, one winter and one summer, and summer is only four or five months. Once it is winter, it is cold and snowy, and construction is impossible. This summer, it was already a factory building while exploring. But only this year can it be partially built. Miners will be able to mine in the winter in the future, but now they will have to wait for the snow to melt before they can start mining gold.

"Yes. I want you to deposit your gold in the bank. ”

"Deposit to the bank? Why? ”

Link had no intention of selling all the gold he mined. His plan was to sell some of the gold to cover the cost of gold mining. The rest of the gold was saved.

And he had thought of a place to store his gold, which was in the underground vault of Hannah Castle. There is a lot of groundwater there, and even if someone wants to dig a tunnel and steal it, there is no way. And he has his own guard, Hannah's castle is not necessarily less secure than the bank.
