In any case, Situ Nan's first meeting with Morgan was a little apprehensive in his heart, but his face was friendly. (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)

In the evening, Stuart and Robles attend Morgan's small private party aboard the Pirate cruise ship.

The Corsair was anchored in New York Harbor, and there were other cruise ships anchored around, and Situ Nan probably counted at least thirty cruise ships.

From a distance, these cruise ships are new, well-maintained, and moored in this tranquil bay, like concubines waiting to be pampered by their owners.

Although they are dressed beautifully, they are only the lives of the second and third wives, but their rich owners are usually busy with the world's economic affairs, and they have little time to pamper these "resentful women" waiting in the bay.

With a long wait of 365 days a year, they may not even spend a month on it.

It's like a beautiful dress, which may have a limited amount of time to wear out all year round, and most of the time it is locked in the wardrobe by the owner, and you can only feel sorry for yourself no matter how gorgeous it is.

But things have changed a little tonight, let's call it Jack Morgan, Jack is Morgan's nickname, in short, foreign names are a real headache.

Jack is having a party on Pirate III tonight.

As you can see from the name, the Corsair III is the third generation of the Morgan family, and the Corsair II was once requisitioned by the U.S. Navy to participate in the US-West naval battle, and was hit by a Spanish warship during the war, which made the old Morgan die of heartache.

As a last resort, he had to build a third cruise ship, the Pirate III, which is said to have cost millions of dollars, which is really staggering.

However, after the death of Morgan Sr., the cruise ship was left to little Morgan, that is, Jack Morgan.

Although Situ Nan admired Lao Mo's courage in the mall, he really didn't dare to compliment his aesthetics, the shell of Pirate 3 was actually black, and the shape was also, how to say? It's a bit post-modern or some kind of impressionist style, anyway, Situ Nan can't figure it out.

Although this cruise ship is ugly, there is one thing that is determined by reading, that is, ugly has a lot of character, and the ship is as its name suggests.

With that dark appearance, Situ Nan thought to himself that if he brought an eye patch and a group of vicious lewd men standing next to a few gold teeth, he would really have a bit of the style of a Caribbean pirate.

It's just that this enhanced version of Pirates of the Caribbean, at least the Pirates of the Caribbean are still sailboats, and they can't run without a split, and this Pirate 3, there are almost no cruise ships in the world with better power than him.

The waterline of the Pirate III was almost 200 feet, about 60 meters, and there were only 70 crew members on it. The carpet decoration on it is said to have been moved from Pirate II by Lao Mo?

This is a pocket-sized Titanic! The decoration of the ship is all luxurious, the materials are the best in the world, and the crew is also the best.

Look at the exquisite carpet on the ground, like a work of art, but used to step on the feet, it's really enough!

Situ Nan shook his head, he was not used to too luxurious enjoyment, but he was happy to enjoy the luxury of others.

Originally, he thought he was already super rich, but in terms of spending money, he was still a country bun, and just now he was laughing at the Morgan family's inferior aesthetics outside, but after coming in, he was stunned by the luxurious decoration inside.

Especially when he saw a multicolored blue and white porcelain fixed on a certain shelf on the ship, superb! More beautiful than any Situ Nan had ever seen.

"The plain embryo outlines the blue and white brushstrokes, which are thick and light

The peony depicted on the bottle is just like your first makeup...

Azure is waiting for the smoke and rain, and I'm waiting for you...

Such as the hand-me-down blue and white porcelain is beautiful"

I don't know why a graceful mood suddenly filled Situ Nan's mind, just like seeing a lover in a previous life, he couldn't bear to turn his head away, but just stared.

Situ Nan couldn't help but reach out to caress it, and a moist feeling came from his fingertips.

"Haha! Stoney! There you are! Tonight has a good program! ”

As soon as Situ Nan turned around, he saw Jack Morgan walking over with a smile on his face.

"No, I've seen the best view of the night!" Situ Nan said.

"Oh? Where is it? Jack Morgan wondered a little, thinking that he hadn't told them that there were a few stunning White Russian beauties tonight.

"It!" Situ Nan pointed to the blue and white porcelain in front of him and said.

"Oh! You said this bottle, I thought it was······ But you have a good eye! It's a nice thing, it seems to have been produced by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty in Far Eastern China during the time of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty······"

"It's Emperor Kangxi, it's not bran, well, it's almost the same anyway. It's not wrong to call him the Emperor of Bran, but the point is that this bottle is so beautiful, I like it so much! Tsk tsk"

Morgan was interrupted by Situ Nan before he finished speaking, he looked at the young man in front of him who was a little excited and incoherent, thinking that a beautiful bottle would make you so excited, wouldn't it be even more refreshing and crooked if you saw a more beautiful "vase" later?

"Jack, oh no, Uncle Jack, there's a little request I don't know if I can ·······" Situ Nan caressed the delicate blue and white porcelain nostalgically, and it goes without saying that everyone knows someone's thoughts.

"Hah, what did I think it was? Isn't it just a bottle? It's okay to give it to you, but ······" Jack Morgan deliberately dragged out the pitch. He really didn't pay much attention to these ancient Chinese porcelain, although it looked pretty good and was worth a lot of money, but Morgan was still short of money?

Jack Morgan once donated more than 2,000 pieces of Chinese porcelain to the museum at one time when he was dealing with the estate of his old son, John Pierpont Morgan.

"But what? I'm willing to exchange a work of art of the same value with you, I don't know if it's okay? Situ Nan looked at Jack Morgan eagerly, and his face clearly read, "Uncle, give it to me quickly!" If I don't give it to me, I'll rely on you! ”

Any man who is stared at by a man outside the world for more than 30 seconds, and his eyes are eager, no one can stand it.

Jack Morgan just wanted to hang Situ Nan's appetite, and he didn't say no, there were several pieces of such porcelain in his family's collection room.

If you are misunderstood, how can you mix up on Wall Street? Lao Tzu, who has just ascended to heaven for a few years, probably can't help but jump down from it and take a cane to hit himself on the head a few times after hearing the news of the Morgan family's disgrace!

"Alright! You owe me a debt this time! Morgan said without suffering at all.

"Definitely, definitely!" Situ Nan, who was satisfied, said obediently, is there anything else in this world that needs the help of the Morgan family? But if they can help him, the Morgan family can also handle it.

"Hehe, speaking of which, Robles is still an alumnus! I'm also a Harvard graduate. There are a lot of Harvard brothers and sisters on the ship tonight! Jack Morgan said, not snubbing Robles at all.

Well, in this world, physics is clustered, and people are divided into groups, just like there are many heads of a country, and many politicians have gone to the United Kingdom to mix with Cambridge Aishang Novel Network, in the United States, many business people, politicians, and lawyers have mixed with Harvard, even if it is not Harvard, it is also an Ivy League university, which is also one of the reasons why Cambridge and Harvard are so awesome in the world, they have cultivated too many social elites.

Of course, those who graduated from Denburg Aishang Novel Network are not counted, and the alumni of Denburg Aishang Novel Network only meet awkwardly, and there is no happy gathering.

If Situ Nan hadn't gone to Harvard for a while, he wouldn't have met Robles! This makes Situ Nan half a Harvard! (Self-styled!) It's so thick-skinned! ）

"Hahaha!"

Jack Morgan thinks that one of his half-junior brothers is quite interesting, and aside from the work factor, Situ Nan thinks that Jack Morgan is not very difficult to get along with.

How to say, some sullen men! Middle-aged man!

There were more people on board, and Captain Jack (Jack Morgan gave himself the title of captain. Orders to sail the cruise ship to the open sea, and then back in the morning.

It was the first time that Situ Nan and Robles had attended a gathering of the rich on the Pirate III, and they were a little reserved, usually listening to the well-dressed uncles talking and laughing.

When the crowd was almost there, Captain Jack (Morgan) walked to the middle, clapped his palms, and signaled for everyone to be quiet.

Well, Jack Morgan nodded in satisfaction, on this ship, he was the only captain, and the Pirate was guided to a better future.

In the midst of everyone's attention, Morgan raised his tone and announced loudly: "It's a good night tonight, two new ones have arrived on Pirate 3, and they are both young stick boys, Robles Mellon, the president of Robles Securities, and his partner, Stoney William, the new rich man in Western California. Let us drink them warmly with applause. ”

Situ Nan already has enough immunity to this kind of occasion, not to mention Robles, he is on Wall Street, and this kind of occasion is also commonplace.

The two generously nodded and smiled at everyone.

The guests who can attend Morgan's Pirate 3 tonight are all rich people from New York, and they are all a group of well-cultivated guys. Most people have heard of Robles, and they know him, and Robles has a good relationship with a few people, and everyone eats on Wall Street, and they don't look up and see each other.

On the contrary, they have a little bit of Situ Nan's appearance, how can they say it? The skin was a little yellow, and the young man with black hair and black eyes was a little surprised, but everyone was used to seeing the world, and no one would be too abrupt.

A smile is the best disguise.

Situ Nan became more and more aware of the meaning of this sentence, no matter how angry he was in his heart, he had to keep a smile on his face, this was the real cultivation home.

Besides, he was in a good mood tonight, and strength was the biggest reason to win the respect of others.

In particular, it is not to be underestimated that Jack Morgan can personally introduce him.

The other people on the boat were a little more curious about Situ Nan, in the middle of a group of uncles and uncles, Situ Nan and Robles looked too young, and others couldn't help but look at them twice.

There must be something extraordinary, right? Many people wonder if they should go back to inquire about this upstart who is said to have come from the west.

A bunch of the richest people on the planet get together, except to talk about money or money, which of course may be a bit cheesy!

In fact, everyone is talking about it, expressing their views on finance, economics or politics and law, and the scope is very broad, and there is no longer entanglement in specific issues, similar to a salon.

What everyone talked about the most was the war in Europe, the largest war in human history, and the most brutal way of showing the power of industrial civilization in modern times.

But for these people on board, what they heard, spoke, thought, and did was more about how to profit in the war than about showing compassion for the world.

Many people have participated in this US Treasury bond incident, and they have tasted the sweetness.

In the past, the bankers on Wall Street in New York provided a lot of money to the two camps in Europe, buying a lot of bonds or loans, and of course, most of them were given to Britain and France.

The $3 billion Treasury bond is only the largest in two years, but it is not enough for the bankers in New York, who have more money to bring to the warring countries.

After cutting a chunk of flesh from the British, the insatiable bankers turned their attention to the US government.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Germans are declining, and the British are gritting their teeth and insisting, and it is almost time for the Americans to end.

"The United States can't just watch our loans to Europe go down the drain, now is the time to pick peaches, the White House guys are ready to move, the president wants to realize the influence of the United States as a great power, as long as we work harder, we are pushing, lending money to the government to support the war, I think the professor in the White House will agree to the war." Someone said confidently.

"But the population doesn't like war, they won't agree. What to do? Another asked rhetorically.

Well, what to do is the point.

The previous man waited for this sentence, and then said, "It doesn't matter if the people don't like it, the White House has a way to get them to go to war, maybe the reason to save the dog under the Queen's pants seems to be a good reason." ”

Someone paused until he received a knowing smile from the audience and continued: "What is needed now is that we give the White House enough commitment, and with our commitment, are the politicians in the White House afraid that they will not find an excuse?" They're professional! Do you remember how we fought the war with Spain? Last time we said that the Spaniards broke the boiler of our Maine, this time we said that the Germans stole the steering wheel of our Americans. ”

"Hahaha!" Everyone smiled with satisfaction.

Situ Nan saw Jack Morgan stroking his short beard proudly, and seemed to be satisfied with the crowd of people in the audience.

"Wow crowd favored?" Situ Nan didn't think that those old foxes were as superficial as they appeared, and what he saw were the most reactionary few people on the planet.

"You're not alone? It seems that some plans are going to be brought forward. None of them are stupid, they have rolled up their sleeves and are ready to pounce on the sweet cake. Situ Nan thought to himself.
