On June 28, 1858, a small event was born in the United States. The old gunpowder factory in Wilmington, Delaware, DuPont's powder magazine, exploded. If that's all there is to it, it's nothing, anyway, the United States is so big, there are so many companies that produce gunpowder, how can there be no story of a powder magazine explosion and so on. Well, in the eyes of some Americans, the appeal of such news is not as good as that of a bear child playing with a gun and killing his father or something.

But this is not the case, because DuPont boss Henry? When DuPont later arrived at the scene to check on it, he was shot at by an unknown gunman. At least six bullets hit the unlucky man, one of which directly knocked off half of his head.

The killer caused a major accident and shot a millionaire, and the watchability of this suspense story is very high, although the New York Times and the New York Tribune are not embarrassed to dig up behind-the-scenes stories or anything, but in some tabloids, all kinds of stories with and without discipline have emerged like mosquitoes after summer rains.

"Well, the story is well written, and you can give eight points." In the office, Morgan leaned back in the soft boss chair and put his two feet high on the large desk in front of him. I was holding a newspaper in my hand and was having fun reading it.

"Well, the female assassin's family feud is not bad, it's not bad, it's violent, and there's something that people like to see that is inappropriate for children, well, those contents are very well written...... Leather whips, candles, barbed ropes...... Ah, how interesting it is. Why don't you call a girl to give it a try? Well, forget it for the time being, let Daddy show up, he has to beat me up. ”

……

"Haven't we started spreading rumors yet? Why are there so many rumors? Rockefeller shook his head in his office, facing various newspapers, "The efficiency of our actions is very problematic!" Compared to those tabloid reporters, we are too inefficient. ”

"It can't be helped, John." Kroll said two words for the staff who were responsible for spreading rumors, "You know, tabloid reporters don't need to think about anything, they just need to think about how to be scary, how to be exciting, how to make women scream, how to make a certain part of the man react." They usually have prepared all kinds of templates a long time ago, and when the time comes, they only need to change the names of a few people, and one such report will come out immediately. No one is really serious about these tabloids anyway. But we are different, procedurally speaking, we need to look at all kinds of reports in various newspapers and tabloids, and adjust our things for them, we also need to think about what we can say and what we can't say, which will naturally be more troublesome. And we didn't have any experience with it before. ”

These days, Rockefeller has found a lot of dark history about DuPont to show Kroll, including the story of how Henry sent his competitors to the sky with his entire family. Now Kroll is against the company for using illegal means against Henry? DuPont did not have any psychological resistance, but felt that it was an "illegal justice".

"What a pure person he was, but now he has been damaged by us." Rockefeller thought proudly.

……

"Well, that's an interesting story!" Morgan, who had just returned from outside with deep satisfaction, flipped through the various newspapers again. He didn't read the newspapers to find some interesting things like whips and candles in them, (although this is not bad) but to be able to find really useful information in a large pile of junk information. That's when a report caught his attention.

"'DuPont stole technical secrets and killed them?' Well, it says Scrooge did it. Although there are a lot of mistakes and flaws above, for example, Scrooge personally made the decision to teach those who dare to covet their technical secrets a lesson, 'set an example', but do not consider that Scrooge is still floating in the Atlantic, and she will not be able to reach the UK until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, and when he knows this news, it is estimated that it will be next month. However, this may be a deliberate attempt to leave such a loophole. Well, this article is for specific people. Well, the whole logic makes sense, although it is not explicitly stated what the technical secrets are, but I all know that it must be the kind of smokeless projectile used in the McDonnell 1857 precision fire version of the bullet. To the former Henry? DuPont's kind of virtue, it is unreasonable not to make up your mind. As for bombing factories and killing people, John? Rockefeller was absolutely willing to do it, and Blackwater definitely had the strength to do it. This report must have been made by Rockefeller and them to warn those who were staring at their technical secrets that smokeless gunpowder was trivial compared to the sulfonamides they had in their hands and even more. These guys are so ruthless! Well, maybe we're going to form a Blackwater of our own too. Otherwise, you won't be able to sleep at ease. ”

……

"How do you think the DuPont family will react?" Carroll asked Rockefeller, "They probably know we did it." What kind of counterattack do you think they will have? ”

"Ah, I don't think the DuPonts are going to fight back at all. At least not yet. First, they don't have a group of dragons now. Henry? Dupont was in the prime of life when he died, and he was a very strong man, and I think there are a lot of people in the family who are dissatisfied with him. When Henry died, he didn't have time to identify the leader of the company, so after his death, if he didn't do well, the DuPont family itself was going to be in civil strife for a while, where could they fight back against us so quickly? Second, there is a risk to fight back. In the last encounter, DuPont's gang should have understood the power gap between us and them. If they still dare to fight back, then our next blow can send their entire family to God. Now we haven't completely denied DuPont a way to live, they can still live a relatively comfortable and wealthy life, how dare they completely turn against us. ”

If Scrooge had heard this analysis, he would have appreciated it. Rich people cherish their lives, unless they have 300% profits, otherwise, it is the hatred of killing their fathers and taking their wives, as long as their money is still there, most of them will not gamble to fight hard. Only those who have nothing to lose but chains will gamble their own qiē to fight resolutely. When Shi Koozhi was in middle school in his last life, he studied modern Chinese history, and was often surprised by how the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Beiyang, and baked steamed buns were so accustomed to compromise when they were abroad, so that he was ridiculed by his history teacher as "traitors can't sell them for money." Now, Scrooge can understand this, because on the one hand, they are aware of their own weakness, and on the other hand, they have a very good life, so they also realize how easy it is for people to break their pots and jars, and how important these pots and jars are to them, in order to protect these pots and jars, they will become easy to compromise, easy to buy teammates.

Now, the DuPont family is nothing more than a dead person. Is there one less person in the DuPont family? As good as he is, he's dead, and when he dies, he makes way for himself. DuPont's powder magazine exploded, but the factory was not a big problem, as long as it was relieved, the DuPont family would not have a hard time. And if they really go into a desperate battle with McDonald Infantry Weapons, McDonald's Chemical & Pharmaceutical Company, and Blackwater Security, will they have any hope of winning? Blackwater and MacDonald's infantry weapons are not enough, but behind MacDonald's chemical and pharmaceutical companies there are a series of behemoths: the Morgans, the Rothschilds, and even a whole bunch of big nobles and big capital in Europe. Even if they kill Scrooge or anyone else, the benefits will definitely not fall into their hands, on the contrary, under the counterattack of this huge community of interests, they can only be crushed without suspense.

"In fact, there is one thing that best reflects DuPont's attitude, and that is our share of the order at DuPont." Rockefeller went on to say, "Before the operation, we had a large amount of firing against Dupont. This is normal, to be honest, DuPont's technology is good, the gunpowder produced is of good quality. We have been ordering gunpowder from them all the time. Of course, this batch of gunpowder ordered at DuPont must have exploded in that explosion not so long ago. Well, in other words, DuPont will definitely be in a big breach of contract on delivery time. I think they'll be sending a representative soon to talk to us about the contract. And some of the delegates' expressions will express DuPont's attitude towards this. ”

"But, John, attitude can be disguised. They can paralyze us with a homely attitude. Carroll was still not reassured.

"You think they made a statement for us?" Rockefeller laughed, "Their statements are for Morgan, for the Rothschilds, for a series of giants standing behind MacDonald's chemical and pharmaceutical companies." Think about it, if they want revenge, who can they target? Kill you? Scrooge will have their entire family buried for you. I guess it's the same with killing me. What about killing Scrooge? Let's not say that you can't do it. So many rich people, big aristocrats invested so much money in Scrooge, if Scrooge had an accident, their interests would suffer huge losses. So if they can't convince people that they're no longer a threat, and we don't have to do it, some guys are going to tear them apart. Well, they're all bad guys who believe in 'it's better to kill by mistake than misplace'. ”
