In the past, Situ Nan heard that the economic lifeline of the United States was in the hands of the Jews, and he always felt skeptical. (To read the latest chapter of the book, visit the Wèn Novels biquge.info) but he did know quite a few people on the boat tonight, and several of the bankers were Jewish.
For example, Jacob Schiff, the owner of Kuhnrepo, and his son-in-law, Paul Vogber, were both present at the same time.
Jacob Schiff was a well-known Jewish in the industry, and in order to confront the Tsar who had abused the Jews and taught him a lesson, this guy went to the Japanese to lend hundreds of millions of dollars and let the Japanese fight Lao Maozi in the Far East.
This old guy is so ruthless! Situ Nan secretly smacked his tongue in his heart, thinking that he couldn't come up with a few hundred million dollars to let the Beiyang government also come to Little Japan.
However, if the Beiyang government can have half of the small Japan's competitiveness, it will not have to go to the United States.
Hate iron does not make steel!
If the Beiyang government or the later government of the Republic of China can give some strength, it is not bad to embarrass little Japan with some money, but I am afraid that once my money passes, I don't know which person's pocket it will go to.
Situ Nan shook his head, shook off this unrealistic thought, walked up to Jacob Schiff and respectfully greeted, "Hello Sir, Sir, I'm Stoney William. Nice to meet you. ”
"Oh! Hello Stoney! What a nice boy! I know you! ”
Jacob Schiff's gray beard shook and said kindly.
He knows, he does know, he is one of the bigwigs on Wall Street, and Situ Nan's situation can't be hidden from Morgan, and he won't hide it from Jacob Schiff, an old fox who has been famous on Wall Street for a long time.
At their level, when they came out to mingle, everyone almost knew each other's affairs, so it was not surprising that Jacob Schiff knew about Situ Nan.
"Mr. Schiff's status and influence on Wall Street are obvious to all, but what I admire most is your adventurous spirit and courage in the Russo-Japanese War!" Situ Nan said sincerely.
Although the Jewish banker was regarded by the outside world as a majority of the reputation, his philanthropy, his contribution to the Jewish people, was admired by Situ Nan.
And Jacob Schiff has always had a good relationship with the White House, whether it is Woodrow Wilson, who is now in office, or former President Theodore Roosevelt, both of whom were helped by Jacob Schiff when they ran for president.
Jacob Schiff also has close ties to the British and Japanese royal families, so it is not unreasonable for some to accuse him of using mysterious conspiracies to control the world economy and politicians.
Situ Nan's compliment clearly tickled Jacob Schiff, and he was a little pleased to hear it, and said:
"Who's to say it isn't! Damn brutal Slavic pariahs! ”
Jacob Schiff did not hide his dislike for the tsar at all.
"This is my son-in-law, Paul Vogberg. You young people have a good talk. I'm sorry, people are old and can't stand the toss. Find a time and let's have a good chat! Jacob Schiff patted Situ Nan on the shoulder with relief.
He beckoned a waiter to come over and helped him back to his room.
It's not Jacob Schiff who relies on the old and sells the old, he is fully qualified, he is 70 years old, and he can be Situ Nan's grandfather. In another three or four years, this generation of Wall Street heroes will see God.
(Do Jews believe in God?) It seems to be! But they don't believe in Jesus. )
"Hello, Mr. Vogber."
"Hello, Mr. William!"
After Jacob Schiff left, Stuart Nan went on to talk to Paul Vogelberg.
If Situ Nan is seven points of admiration and three points of vigilance for the elderly Jacob Schiff, then this Paul Vogelberg is eight points of vigilance!
This is a sinister fellow!
A genius!
This is recognized by Wall Street.
Why?
Paul Vogerber made Stuart a little taboo not because he slept with the niece of the company's owner, Jacob Schiff, but because he was the general architect of the Federal Reserve.
The establishment of the Federal Reserve was not a smooth sailing, but after a hundred years of efforts by American bankers, and in order to level the Congress, the White House, and the banks in the Middle and West, Paul Warberg devised a genius solution consisting of 12 regional banks of the Federal Reserve. In fact, most of the U.S. money distribution is concentrated in the Federal Reserve Bank, and controlling the Federal Reserve Bank is equivalent to controlling the Federal Reserve.
What's more, in the arrangement of the Fed's managers, after some ingenuity, Paul Vogerber's "Federal Reserve Act" seems to simulate the separation of powers and checks and balances of the US Constitution. Presidential appointments, congressional approvals, independent directors and bankers as advisors are truly watertight designs!
In fact, those banker advisors are the soul of the Fed! The directors of the government and Congress cannot understand as much as the bankers, and the twists and turns in it are not something that ordinary people can play.
However, under Situ Nan's vigilance, the conversation with Paul Vogelberg ended soon in a friendly atmosphere.
In addition to Paul Vogelberg, Stuart Stuan also met a great god, who was Robles's idol Bernard Baruch.
Situ Nan could never have imagined that he would meet Barnard Baruch on Morgan's yacht.
Tonight is really a bull ghost snake body has run out, if Jack Morgan wants to show his muscles to Situ Nan, a junior, then this purpose has been fully achieved.
Just gone a Paul Vogber and now another Bernard Baruch is here.
You really don't need to make this trip!
Compared with Morgan, Stuart Nan and Robles's connections are too thin. And this thing takes time to accumulate, and money can't buy it.
When a person's career reaches a certain height, on a certain course, his connections are more important than his wisdom.
Unlike Paul Vogber, who had a pair of Jewish conspirators behind him, Bernard Baruch was completely self-made and made money speculating in stocks.
In just three years, from 1897 to 1900, Baruch's personal fortune rose to $1,000,000, and in 1989 he was a penniless poor boy when he first entered the industry!
In such a short period of time, he has earned millions of dollars in assets, which is truly a miracle. Related to this, however, in order to acquire these wealths, Baruch developed his eclectic and eclectic investment methods.
Almost every investor working Wall Street today is a master in a certain field, or a brokerage expert, or a venture capitalist, or a floor trader, or an investment banker, but Baruch can combine all these roles in a short period of time and become an investment "all-rounder".
In 1896, Baroo, which started as a speculator, merged six major U.S. tobacco companies to form the United Tobacco Company (Consolidated).
tobaccocompany), and subsequently, he helped the Guggenheim family merge the U.S. copper industry. He also worked with Schiff's Harriman to control New York's transportation system.
In 1901, together with his brother, he founded the Balu Brothers.
This is also a big name on Wall Street. Although his influence is not as deep-rooted as that of old big families such as Morgan, Rockefeller, and Schiff, it is also a force that Stuart and Robles want to praise.
If it is only a talent in investment, how about Bernard Baruch, there are already two financial geniuses in Robles Securities, analyst Graham and super market player Jesse, in terms of finance, Robles Securities is full of talents, in addition to the two super brothers just mentioned, the company bosses Robles and Situ Nan are also geniuses in financial speculation.
Of course, Situ Nan is a little different from Robles, his talent lies in the golden finger given to him by God, he remembers several major financial events in American history, he only needs to give instructions and ask the following group of geniuses to help him operate.
Returning to the topic of Bernard Baruch, history has given him an American financier, a stock market speculator, a political advisor, and a political consultant.
The latter two identities are the focus!
After his commercial success, Bernard Baruch became active in politics. He is also an economic adviser to President Rowood Wilson.
"Mr. Baruch, I really didn't expect to see you! I'm Stoney William, and this is my partner and good friend Robles Mellon. Situ Nan hurriedly beckoned Robles over.
"These two are the new rising stars of Wall Street, and I've heard others mention it, but I didn't expect to be so young." Bernard Baruch lamented.
Fortunately, he didn't know the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, otherwise he would have said something that pushed wave after wave.
Situ Nan didn't know that Bernard Baruch's words were really deceived by this gentleman's hat, gold-rimmed glasses, and smiling man? Don't look at Bernard Baruch is 47 years old, but he doesn't look old at all, he is only in his 30s, Bernard Baruch lived to be 95 years old, and died in the 60s.
Situ Nan didn't dare to guarantee that he would live longer than this guy! Barnard Baruch is simply a living fossil of the American economy today.
"Mr. Barnard is an economic adviser to President Woolrod, do you have any advice for us juniors?" Situ Nan lowered his posture and asked.
"Haha. Stoney, you're so funny. Didn't they all say it just now? Barnard Baruch said.
Tonight is also a briefing on the war by the heads of the major banks on Wall Street, otherwise he would not have had to rush over from Washington.
However, Bernard Baruch had a good impression of Situ Nan and Robles, and he talked to them a lot.
Robles was a little excited to see his idol, but as a superior person, he knew how to adjust his mentality, and the two discussed some experiences in financial speculation.
The reason why Situ Nan values this Bernard Baruch in front of him is because he knew that when this guy was about to become the chairman of the American War Industry Council, he immediately had the power of life and death for all industrial companies in the United States. He procures $10 billion a year, almost single-handedly determining the price of U.S. government war material purchases.
Situ Nan has so many industries, steel, food, petroleum, shipbuilding, automobiles, mortar factories, ····· Which one isn't a golden doll?
Now, although desperately making a lot of money from the British and French, no one is disgusted with money.
If it can be included in the list of government procurement, it will be issued.
This is a big financier, serve him well, and then the large orders will not fly like snowflakes?
Situ Nan had impure motives in his heart, but his face was sincere, and from time to time a few little farts made Bernard Baruch flutter, and in the end, Baruch and Robles Securities reached a cooperative relationship.
Looking at Barnard Baruch's satisfied smile, Situ Nan knew that this cold stove was burning.
"Everyone is gone, and you're still watching!" Robles stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Situ Nan's eyes, "I never saw how enthusiastic about that person just now?" Even though I admire Mr. Baruch's investment talent, it seems that you, a wild crazy speculative maniac, seem to have made more money than Baruch. ”
Robles had heard of Bernard Baruch's legend before, so he had always admired him, but after talking to Baruch just now, his mentality changed slightly, and he realized that he was also an equal to him.
"What I'm interested in is his connections in the White House! Once the United States enters the war, with his relationship with the president, he may be reused, and it is difficult to say if we have to ask for him at that time. Situ Nan said.
Both of them speak very loudly, so you don't have to worry about anyone being able to hear them.
Tonight is the night that Situ Nan has seen the most big people in this world, more than he has seen on the Titanic, representatives of Rockefeller, Mellon, Boston, Cleveland and other consortia have come.
What a grand event! The essence of the rich Americans is condensed into this ugly Corsair.
Situ Nan
I didn't expect to be one of them, life is really up and down too fast.
The luxurious decoration, the crystal chandelier, and the red wine in the blur made Situ Nan feel a little shaky.
