New York, 9:30 a.m.

Coming out of the exchange, Wang Weiyi tidied up his clothes, New York is indeed very cold this year. He called a taxi. The moment he got into the taxi, he suddenly felt a threat.

This feeling is a natural part of being in a dangerous environment for a long time. He sensed that someone was following him.

Wang Weiyi smiled and got into the taxi.

By the time the car was halfway through, he was pretty sure that a car was following him unhurriedly.

"Turn to West Avenue." Wang Weiyi said suddenly.

"Very good, sir."

"Are you from the FBI or the CIA?"

The driver shuddered when the passenger behind him asked this, but his body randomly stiffened as something cold was aimed at him.

"Look, it's Colt 45,8 rounds." Wang Weiyi smiled slightly: "If you want to resist, or can't answer my question honestly, I can guarantee that eight bullets will pierce your head." Now tell me, are you the FBI or the CIA? ”

“ＦＢＩ。” The driver said helplessly: "How did you find me?" ”

"Turn left ahead." Wang Weiyi pointed in the direction: "Actually, I just found out, you are always looking in the rearview mirror, keeping a distance from the black Chevrolet behind, once you find that the Chevrolet is lagging behind, you will also lower your speed in time." Hey, they're your companions, right? ”

"Yes. It's my companion. ”

Wang Weiyi was very satisfied with his judgment and acumen: "Who gave the order to arrest me?" ”

"Captain Yegot." The driver replied very frankly: "Sir, I can tell you all." You'll know sooner or later anyway. We are ordered to keep an eye on you and arrest you when appropriate. And we've been ordered not to do you any harm. That's all I know, I'm just a small character. ”

"Turn right. I know you're a minor character, but what about Captain Yegot? Is he in the car in the back? ”

"Yes, he's in the car behind him."

"Stop."

The taxi stopped, and the driver was about to speak, when he received a blow to the back of the head, and he immediately fainted.

Wang Weiyi walked out of the taxi.

At this time, the car that was tracking had not yet arrived......

．．．．．．

"Captain. Tommy is knocked unconscious, and our target is gone. ”

Captain Yegot's face turned pale, and the carefully planned arrest operation actually failed. How exactly does the target discover itself? Yegot didn't figure it out for a moment.

"Gentlemen, hands up." At this time, a voice rang out violently.

Yegot and two of his men reached for their weapons, but a gunshot rang out, making their hands stiff again.

Wang Weiyi walked out of hiding. It was nothing more than an ambush. Use what you used on the battlefield to New York. The same applies to it.

"Look, my marksmanship is good, I can guarantee that, and I'm shooting fast, I think I can take your life in the shortest amount of time with three bullets." Wang Weiyi shook the gun in his hand: "But I don't want to kill you, because I know very well that you are just a group of migrant workers......

Captain Yeggott nodded......

"So, cooperate a little." Wang Weiyi nodded at the two FBI agents: "You, use your handcuffs to handcuff him to the car." ”

The agent looked at the captain. found that the captain nodded, and then helplessly handcuffed his companion to the car.

"Good. Good cooperation begins! ”

Wang Weiyi smiled: "You, Captain Yegot, put him in the car." ”

Captain Yeggott did the same. Then, Wang Weiyi also handcuffed Yegot, of course, he did not forget the driver who was knocked unconscious.

Captain Yegot only felt that the nest was at the extreme, and four federal agents captured one person, only to become prisoners instead.

Wang Weiyi probably saw the frustration on the other party's face: "Don't feel guilty for yourself, I have encountered many arrests in my life, and they are more numerous and more shrewd than you, but they have not succeeded once." ”

Captain Yegot didn't quite understand who this man really was, and what kind of skills he had to say such things. But at least in the current situation, he is a winner......

"Captain, we'll have to talk." Wang Weiyi said lightly: "I want to know who sent you to carry out this mission, why do you want to arrest me?" Ah, you're well trained, you wouldn't say it easily, but, I suppose, you have to think about the safety of your men. I'm curious why I have to send a captain to arrest me...... Ah, you have a minute to think about it, and when the time I give you is over, the first bullet will go through the head of one of your men. ”

Captain Yegot sighed, he didn't know what he was talking about, he was completely confident that the other party would do it......

Just three seconds had passed, and Captain Yegot had already spoken: "Sir, I don't know who you are, only that your code name is 'V', and this order was directly issued by the top management of the FBI. ”

He was very clear, but he was as unaware of what was going to be done to arrest Mr. V, just like the driver.

Wang Weiyi began to feel that the news of his arrival in New York had been noticed by the American high-level, and there was probably only so much that Captain Yeggott could know.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Captain Yegot, and the last question, why do you know that I will appear on the New York Stock Exchange."

"Same deployment above, they list a few places where you might appear......"

Wang Weiyi's brows furrowed. Who knows so well where they are happening? But the good news is that he didn't live with Elliot correctly, he can be sure that it is. The other party must have been watching Elliot as well.

The good news is that the other party must not have noticed that he is staying in a small inn with an inconspicuous family.

"Captain, someone will come back soon to save you. Ah, I think I need to use your car, can you give me the keys? ”

He took the keys from the FBI, got into their car, and quickly left.

Looking for a street phone, Wang Weiyi dialed a number: "Kasanovich? I want you to inform Elliot immediately and meet at 3 p.m. at Morgan Building. No. You can't call him or send someone directly to him. The FBI is spying on Mr. Elliot. Okay, I know what you can do......"

．．．．．．

Morgan Building. 3 p.m.

Gates and Lawrence were already there, they had met the amazing Baron Alexon when they were younger, when it was still their father's world.

Together with the Baron, their fathers formed the "New York League" and caused a terrible financial storm in the United States. At a time when countless people committed suicide because they went bankrupt. This alliance has gained untold riches.

Right now. This alliance reappeared, and the baron was still the same baron.

Eliot walked in, and his first words were, "I am indeed being watched, I think it was an order from Mr. President, Baron, and I think you have come to New York to be known to the President." Ah, but don't worry, I managed to get rid of those guys. ”

"It's completely safe here. Not a single federal agent could swagger into my office. Gates is very confident about this.

Wang Weiyi smiled. Mr. President – that's his own son. It seems that he has already had his first fight with his son.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Wang Weiyi opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Gates, Mr. Lawrence, first of all, please allow me to express my personal gratitude, I have received news from China that the first batch of supplies you have transported has arrived in Berlin. ”

"It's not a particularly difficult thing to do." Lawrence said lightly.

"So, what I want to ask is when will the second batch of supplies arrive?"

When the baron said this, Gates and Lawrence were stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Baron, you are really a humorous person. Ah, to welcome you, the second shipment will soon arrive in Berlin. ”

Wang Weiyi nodded with satisfaction.

"So, let's talk about some business matters...... Lawrence put away his smile, "We know that the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family are very good friends with you, and they are also a member of the New York League, and what do we send these supplies for Lu, half of it is because of this relationship, but it is definitely not all." Frankly, this is more of an upfront investment, and we are most concerned about what kind of return we can get, please forgive me for being blunt. ”

Of course, if there is no return, the relationship will soon be terminated. You have nothing to apologize to me on this. Wang Weiyi said indifferently: "First of all, the Wittgenstein family and you have already started a good show, and this good show will soon reach a climax, this is our initial cooperation. I will cooperate with you in many ways, and that cooperation has already begun. Of course, I don't think this kind of cooperation is enough. ”

He paused slightly: "I think we have a lot of projects in Europe, in North Africa, in the Middle East. As a result of the outbreak of war, your business in these places has also been greatly affected. For example, in the Middle East, the oil fields that you have invested in are not safe, and they will either be bombed by the Allies or attacked by Germany. Until the war ends, you will not be able to reap the rewards safely. ”

Gates and Lawrence nodded, their investments in those areas had suffered heavily since the war began, and despite the Allied superiority on the battlefield, they had never been able to achieve the best possible victory.

"I will ensure the safety of all your investments in German-controlled areas." Wang Weiyi accentuated some of his own voices: "And, after our victory, you will receive more than ten times the reward." Please come and see, sir. ”

Wang Weiyi took out a copy of his plan and handed it to them.

Gates and Lawrence looked at each other carefully, with surprise and excitement on their faces: "Your Excellency, are you really sure that we can make large-scale investments in these places?" ”

"Of course, I guarantee it by my creditworthiness." Wang Weiyi smiled indifferently: "And the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family." We've been working together for more than 20 years, and I don't want this to end. ”

"However, there is a precondition for this." Lawrence was quick to say, "Your advice is very good. And to be able to give us a monopoly on these industries, however, all on the basis that Germany was able to win the war. ”

"Yes, I don't have to hide that." Wang Weiyi smiled again: "You just said that the benefits are mutual, and if you want to get a return, you must pay." So you must do everything you can to help Germany win. For example, Berlin, North Africa, and the Middle East need a lot of material support, and I need you to exert your huge influence in the United States......"

"You're really good at business." Gates laughs and says, "We've already invested. And you want us to make a new investment without seeing a return? This is an astronomical investment. And the ultimate goal. But to help your country win the war? ”

"The coming new financial turmoil will allow us to reap huge benefits. Your initial investment is already visible. The Wittgensteins have been working most closely with you, and I think that's encouraging. Wang Weiyi said quietly: "If it were not for Elliot and the Wittgenstein family, your plan would not have been so smooth. You won't even want to see me today. Is it? ”

Gates and Lawrence nodded silently.

There is nothing to deny about this. In their view, the end result of any form of cooperation is nothing more than what they can get.

There is no such thing as a business partnership that does not ask for anything in return......

"In that case, let's look at the second point." Wang Weiyi was already confident at this time: "Assuming that the allies can win, what can you get?" President William was convinced of the existence of the New York League, and he was able to guess who caused the financial turmoil. When he achieves victory, his prestige will grow tremendously, and the American adoration of him will reach a point where it will be incomprehensible, then. It's time for him to do something to you. Of course, the Wittgensteins would also be one of his targets for purge. The signs of this are already ......"

Gates and Lawrence were pretty sure what the Baron was telling was true.

With the influence of the Morgan and Rockefeller families in the United States and the world, plus a more powerful and wealthy Wittgenstein family, William certainly had no way to exterminate them, but he could deal a heavy blow to the three families from elsewhere.

For example, on July 2, 1890, the U.S. Congress passed the Protection of Trade and Commerce from Unlawful Restraint and Monopoly Act, which is an antitrust law.

It has been 76 years since the first antitrust law was passed in 1890. This included the following stages: there were not many cases to enforce at the beginning, and there were many antitrust cases from 1911 to 1930; Between 1930 and 1944, there was a decrease in antitrust cases; After World War II, antitrust cases began to increase again.

This could be the most advantageous weapon in William's hands.

Although many individuals and companies have been penalized for illegal acts since the Antitrust Act was enacted, it has had little effect. The Federal Supreme Court used the vague wording of the Act to interpret it in favor of the Trust. In addition, in order to evade legal prosecution, the capitalists changed their appearance and organized trusts in the form of shareholding companies. Therefore, after the promulgation of the "Antitrust Act", monopolistic organizations continued to develop, and by 1904 the United States had established 318 industrial trusts, all but 23 of which were formed after the promulgation of the "Antitrust Act". By the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, trusts had spread to all areas of industry and mining, railways, and urban utilities. A handful of fiscal oligarchs increasingly control the country's economic lifeblood. At the same time, the courts used the Sherman Act to suppress the workers' movement on behalf of the employers' interests, and they disrupted the strike movement of the Pullman railroad workers, dock porters, and miners' union workers by ruling in succession. As a result, it has aroused even more criticism from the broad masses of workers and progressive public opinion. Under the pressure of public opinion, both T.W. Wilson and Roosevelt proposed in the 1912 presidential campaign that preventive measures must be taken to strengthen the program of antitrust legislation.

On September 26, 1914, the Wilson administration enacted the Federal Trade Commission Act, which decided to form a five-member Federal Trade Commission as the "agency that supervises and regulates trusts" in interstate commerce, replacing the Antitrust Bureau and investigating violations by private individuals or corporations in trade competition, and issuing cease or dissolution orders to stop unfair business practices. Section 5 of the Act makes it illegal to engage in unfair competition practices and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce, including all forms of deceptive advertising or acts or practices that are detrimental to business ethics.

On October 15, 1914, the Federal Congress passed the Clayton Antitrust Act, which prohibits certain practices that in practice would weaken competition......

The United States is cracking down on these financial oligarchs more and more, although the financial oligarchs have come up with all kinds of weapons to fight, but once the United States wins the war, William can use this most advantageous weapon to deal the heaviest blow to the New York Alliance.

And, let's not forget that there are also the Jewish consortia that suffered heavy losses in 1942 and are watching fiercely, and they will not give up any chance of revenge.

So, in this sense, it may be more advantageous for Germany to win the war.

Gates and Lawrence know this very well, and they know even more that the Baron has completely mastered their psyche! (To be continued......)
