Why does Li Mengyang know so much about Vanderbilt?

In fact, it is very simple, that is, Li Mengyang has seen some of his life introductions in later generations, not because of how rich he is to attract Li Mengyang, although this Vanderbilt is indeed very rich, but because the introduction of this person in our country is very interesting.

In our domestic books, it is common to say that 'Vanderbilt was born in 1794 to a poor family on Staten Island, next to New York City,...... When he turned sixteen, his parents lent him a hundred dollars to start his own business'.

See how funny this sentence is?

Although Li Mengyang was not like this at that time, he also knew what kind of purchasing power 100 US dollars was in 1820!

If the poor families at that time could come up with $100, then Li Mengyang believes that the Americans in 1858, especially the Eastern, would be willing to join in and become a part of this poor family. The point is that Mingming's 100 yuan also bought a cargo ship.

Well, this was the initial reason for Li Mengyang's interest, and after studying this Vanderbilt carefully, he found it even more interesting.

To put it simply, this man is very rich, very rich, and his net worth at the time of his death was 1/87 of the GDP of the United States, and these are not the most interesting, there are even more interesting things.

That is, this person likes a woman, so to speak, a mistress, that woman's name is Tennessee Klaslin, and this woman's sister is Victoria, although the two of them have different surnames, yes, we can basically deduce such a relationship.

That is Victoria, a female psychic, who, while doing business, introduced her sister to her big client, Vanderbilt.

And what happened after that, that is, these two women, Victoria and Tennessee, both of them have also become rich men, and they are still one of the richest in the world, and they are relatively rare, the richest women in Wall Street finance!

What does this mean?

On the one hand, it shows that this Vanderbilt is rich, and on the other hand, it shows that this rich man is a superstitious and lustful old guy, because Tennessee was originally a stumbling woman, and a psychic, what is it that is not superstition?

Of course, we can't slander people like this, but this also shows a problem, that is, as long as we get this Victoria, then we should be able to get Vanderbilt and his ship!

That's right, and because of this, Li Mengyang asked Matthew to contact that Victoria, at least this task is still relatively gorgeous, and he always can't do it, right? And the others? It seems that there is only Matthew.

In fact, this task is somewhat dangerous, that is, Vanderbilt is said to have suffered from syphilis, this disease is actually transmitted from the Indians to the white people, and in Europe this disease has taken the lives of many people, it can be said that the Indians can be regarded as revenge, however, the matter of Fan Rich's illness is still confidential at this time, Li Mengyang is naturally not easy to say so clearly, so he can only say it to Matthew.

But Mr. Matthew's insistence on "people" and "hearts" is ...... Good luck!

As for why we need to get this Fan Monopoly, in fact, the reason why this Fan Monopoly started is because of the gold rush, he is not going to pan for gold, he is transporting people to the west!

In later generations, some individuals, such as GZJY, big V or something, boasted a whimsical joke in business, 'In front of the gold diggers is a mountain of gold, and there is a river in the middle, and then I do transportation, which is cooler than gold panning' In fact, someone has already done this.

But does this rich man and this shipping have a lot to do with Li Mengyang?

You know, there are no bridges between the major islands of New York at this time, and if you want to do something in this place, then you don't have a boat?

In this way, Li Mengyang is going to be in New York...... I can't say it yet, but I can't say it to Matthew anyway......

"Hey! Why are you here? ”

"Why can't I come? I'm a great inventor! ”

"Hahaha...... Right! You inventor, you invented the weapon of death! The result did not bring death to the enemy, but brought us death! ”

"You don't understand! I don't understand! ”

"Hahaha...... We don't understand! You know, okay? Hahaha......"

It was originally a very harmonious party, and all the celebrities who came came were there, but there was such a discordant sound, why?

"I'm looking for Vanderbilt! I have a new invention! It's the best boat! ”

"Hahaha...... How many more people do you want to kill? ”

"You bastards!"

Of course, this party was held in the name of Vanderbilt, and at this time Van Monopoly was still the king of shipping in the United States, so if someone really made a good ship and came here to find Van Monopoly, it seemed reasonable, but it was not ......

Li Mengyang looked at the guy who was made fun of by others, and he was still wearing a U.S. military uniform, as if he was from the navy, and his rank was not low, but it was very old, and there were patches on it.

This is interesting, people are public officials, you ...... Well, everyone who can come here is either rich or expensive, and they laugh at this guy for a while.

However, this really aroused Li Mengyang's interest, he took a good look at the US Navy, and saw that this person was not young, bald, and especially able to drink, even in the process of arguing with others, Li Mengyang saw him take two glasses into his stomach.

I don't know why, Li Mengyang was in a trance at this time, he felt as if he had seen a 'geek' uncle, who was one of those technical geniuses, but with a special roughness, and this old American Navy was really like ......

"Hey! Hello great writers! ”

Just when Li Mengyang wanted to meet this 'geek' uncle for a while, a woman patted him from behind.

"I've won the award, I'm not a big writer, at most I'm a novelist." From the voice, it could be heard that the person was a woman, so before Li Mengyang turned around, he replied very modestly, but when he turned around......

Ho! It turned out to be a beauty! Looks a bit like Sfimaso!

I really feel this way, but a beauty like Sophie Marceau was not beautiful in the middle of the 19th century, and many people may not know that during this time period, European and American women are fat for beauty, but they can't be too fat, yes, it's about the same as our Tang Dynasty.

Li Mengyang didn't know about this matter originally, but after he participated in many such gatherings, it was difficult to think about it. can recall that Li Mengyang watched "Titanic", and the heroine in it ...... The casting is accurate.

"Hey~ Our great writer has been watching me for so long, do you like me?" This beauty is very bold, as if she is teasing Li Mengyang.

"Miss, I just think you're beautiful." Li Mengyang maintained a gentlemanly demeanor.

There's no way, the upper class is like this, Li Mengyang came in as a Chinese at this time, and some things still can't be willful.

"Hahaha...... But no one said that to me, you are really good, especially your mouth. "This beauty can no longer be said to be bold, it is simply straightforward.

You know, this is really an upper-class gathering, and the atmosphere in the United States these days is 'admiring Europe and flattering foreigners', that is, everyone is trying to learn from Europe, which is not as casual as in later generations.

"Hmm." Unexpectedly, Li Mengyang actually agreed, but then he said: "Tell you a secret, when I write novels, I write them with a pen in my mouth." ”

"Aha!"

Obviously, it was a joke, a very funny, and witty joke. It seems that Li Mengyang has integrated well into the upper class society in the United States.

"I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain from participating in such a party." This beauty is very smart, and what she said was a pun.

"I've been talking for so long, and I still don't know Miss's name." Li Mengyang, this guy straightened up, "Clint Lee, hello. ”

"Elena, Elena Dupont." When saying this surname, Yelena hesitated slightly.

"DuPont?" Of course, Li Mengyang will know the surname Dupont, he lived on Dupont Street when he was in San Francisco, and this surname, as a traverser, how can he not be clear?

"Yes, that's DuPont!" Irina graciously admitted.

That's right, such a party, everyone who comes is either rich or expensive, and the people of the DuPont family are there, this is too normal, right?

"I didn't expect the people of the Dupont family to ......" Li Mengyang, is this guy going to complain?

"Do you think the DuPont family is a weirdo who likes to explode?" Yelena complained about herself first.

"Nope." Li Mengyang stopped, "I didn't expect the people of the Dupont family to be so beautiful. ”

"Hah!" Women, they all like to be praised, "Flim tongue!" "However, women also have to be reserved.

In the face of Yelena's sarcasm, Li Mengyang was not angry, he said a little depressed: "In these years, it is so difficult to be an honest person. ”

The sentence "Ahahaha......" made Yelena's stomach hurt when she laughed.

Well, the above conversation is actually not nutritious, but a lot of nutritious conversations start with no nutrition.

Yelena laughed enough, and said, "Do you know why, a big celebrity like you, but no woman approaches you?" ”

This question is very interesting, Li Mengyang has been in and out of many similar parties, but there are really few women who dare to contact him, he thought at first, I am afraid that it is because he is a Chinese, but then he found that there seem to be Chinese in and out of the upper class in the east, not many, but there are, and they are different from their own situation...... This world has always been that if men are rich and powerful, there is no shortage of women, but Li Mengyang, an upstart in the newspaper industry and a well-known novelist, is a little weird.

"Why?" Li Mengyang was curious.

Yelena gave the answer right away, still with a smile.

"Because a lot of people are saying, do you like men?"

“WHAT？”
