On March 18, 1889, John? Huntelaar and Anna? Brister's big wedding day.

Compared to other wealthy people of the same level, John? Huntelaar's wedding was unusually low-key, with no large number of guests, no extravagant spectacle, and even the wedding notice published in the newspaper was just a small tofu block.

But for the guests, the wedding left a lasting impression on them.

The men were concerned about the Aurora, and for the first time since the birth of the automobile, such a large motorcade roared collectively - more than forty Auroras appeared in John? Mr. Huntelaar's wedding. Among them were the Aurora that John brought from Europe, and the Aurora that the guests rode on, and half of the people who had Aurora in New York attended his wedding. The women are concerned about Anna? Miss Brister's wedding dress - the slim wedding dress perfectly shows off the girl's slender body, and the drooping veil and the skirt that needs to be held up by several little girls are so dazzling that they seem to fill the passage of the church!

So by the time John and Anna were about to leave New York for their honeymoon, the wedding had already appeared in New York newspapers......

"Honey, we've got to leave."

As he saw off the newlyweds, Mr. Brister looked at his daughter and sighed, "By the time you return from your honeymoon, we will be back in Europe." ”

"Hmm!"

Holding back the reluctance in her heart, Anna's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

The separation was inevitable, of course, and the Bristers had been in New York for almost three months since the end of last year, and they had to go back anyway. The Brister family has many properties, which need to be taken care of by Mr. Brister. Even the Huntelaar family's property needs him to help take care of it, and it is certainly impossible to stay in New York all the time.

Mrs. Brister stepped forward to hug her daughter and pulled her aside to comfort her, while Mr. Brister stepped forward and said to her son-in-law in a deep voice, "John, I'll leave Anna to you." She doesn't even have a friend in New York, so you have to take good care of her! ”

"Don't worry, sir."

Bowing slightly respectfully, John nodded solemnly and said, "I will take care of Anna like my own heart, and I will not let her be wronged." ”

"Uh......"

Mr. Braist was a little speechless about John's analogy, but finally patted his son-in-law on the shoulder and nodded. He also knew John quite well, so he was naturally very relieved.

After some whispering, John and Anna boarded their Aurora and set off on their honeymoon on the East Coast. The Bristers, accompanied by old Huntelaar, quietly watched the two Auroras roar away. At the moment when the aurora disappeared from sight, the sensual Bristers finally couldn't help but have red eyes and burst into tears......

……

After his grandson's wedding, the elder Huntlaar soon fell into a different kind of busyness.

In the United States at the end of the 19th century, interest in new technologies, or new things, was far beyond the imagination of the elder Huntelaar, after job advertisements were published. Soon a large number of young people interested in cars came to apply. After careful selection, the old man finally decided on fifteen candidates to study at General Motors in Germany—five more than originally planned. That means tens of thousands of dollars more in related costs. You know, it's not cheap to travel from New York to Karlsruhe to study for at least one year, or two years, plus a salary for them, which is quite expensive for everyone.

However, the old man didn't care about this little money, and quickly sent people out after signing a strict contract.

Influenced by John. The old Huntelaar also paid more and more attention to automobiles, and spontaneous combustion did not hesitate to invest in the early stage. He knows very well that the roots of the Huntelaar family are in North America, and the future investment in American automobile companies will definitely exceed that of General Motors in Germany, and the most important thing is naturally the cultivation of talents in the automobile industry. Not to mention the addition of five places, if necessary. Even if there are fifty more old men, his brows will not be wrinkled.

Supported by this mentality, fifteen people signed contracts at breakneck speed and set off for the continent.

So John, who was on his honeymoon, did not know that among the fifteen men was a young man who had just quit his job, and the name of this twenty-six-year-old young man would be remembered by the whole of America in the future, because his name was Henry. Ford......

……

After John's wedding, old Huntelaar spent almost all of his time and energy on the bank. He had signed a loan contract of two million dollars, plus dividends from various properties in 1888 and 1889, which meant that by the first half of 1890 he would have more than three million six thousand dollars in cash, which was already the standard for acquiring a bank!

In the United States at the end of the 19th century, there was an unprecedented boom in the banking industry!

Bankers control a large number of real industries through financial means, such as the Morgan consortium that is gradually beginning to take shape under Morgan, and some industrial bulls integrate resources and expand their scale through banks, such as the Rockefeller consortium, which has monopolized the US oil industry, almost all of which have banks as the core. Otherwise, how could they have achieved such a mythical speed of development by their own strength?

The Huntelaar consortium, which has already taken shape, is naturally impossible to ignore this point.

The pharmaceutical industry is the core at present, but in the future, the scale of the automobile industry is undoubtedly larger, plus daily chemical products, toys and medical equipment, etc., the scale of the industry under the name of the Huntelaar family is already very amazing. In order to continue to develop, it is obviously unsustainable to rely on the dividends of the industry alone, not to mention that John's hospitals and schools also need to invest a lot of money, so it is imperative to buy a bank as soon as possible.

However, for the Huntelaar family, buying a bank is not an easy task.

In the final analysis, both John and old Huntelaar have a very shallow understanding of the financial industry, and it is very stupid to rashly invest more than three million dollars in it, and I am afraid that they will not know how to sell it if they are sold. Therefore, after several discussions between the grandfather and grandson, the acquisition of the bank was postponed until 1890, that is, a year later. During this period, in addition to raising another year's dividends and other income, they can also learn about the banking industry in detail and find suitable targets......

……

It's easy to write about this kind of thing.

So the wedding is abbreviated, and the spring and autumn penmanship is used to buy a bank or something, so we just know what it means. (To be continued.) )
