Chapter 413: Achilles' Heel!

John Jacob Astor thought that he had grasped Chen Mo's Achilles heel, and he was very proud in his heart, and immediately sent his capable subordinates to buy Chen Mo's private business team to rebel.

He didn't know why Chen Mo was so careless and handed over all his business to a group of people he didn't know, could it be that he thought that the employees who signed the contract would never betray?

It's ridiculous!

But it's good news for him.

John Jacob Astor secretly laughed at Chen Mo for overestimating the work ethic of Americans, he has been in the United States for so many years, and he doesn't know how much deception and betrayal he has seen.

In his opinion, the so-called professional ethics is not enough just the price offered.

As the richest man in the United States, John Jacob Astor, who has huge assets in his hands, has enough confidence to offer a price that satisfies the other party.

And he himself will not suffer, no matter how big the appetite of these working people is, they do not have his status, connections, and power after all, in the end, most of the huge wealth in Chen Mo's hands will go into his pocket, making his position as the richest man in the United States more stable.

Not only can he take revenge on Chen Mo and eliminate this Chinese tycoon who has violated his interests and posed a huge threat to his status as the richest man in the United States, but he can also make a lot of money by the way, and this transaction is definitely worth it.

John Jacob Astor confidently waited for his subordinates to successfully buy Chen Mo's private business team and take over the property in Chen Mo's hands, but in the end, the subordinates he sent brought him unbelievable news.

This subordinate secretly contacted a number of members of Chen Mo's team in private, trying to buy them, but all of them were rejected without exception, no matter how high the price he proposed, these people were unmoved and refused to violate their professional ethics.

John Jacob Astor was dumbfounded, how could this be, even if there were really people who could not be moved by profits, adhere to professional ethics, and be loyal to their employers, but this is a minority after all, how can the entire team of people be such loyal and principled people?

John Jacob Aster, who refused to give up easily, ordered his subordinates to try all the members of Chen Mo's business team, coercing and luring, and the price could be higher, he didn't believe that these people were all dead-headed.

Even if these people were really loyal, John Jacob Astor still firmly believed that as long as the price was reached, there was no one who could not be bought.

In his opinion, these people are not too strong in principle, but too big in appetite!

Then keep raising the price and feed them!

However, the final result is still the same, the team that Chen Mo personally selected and formed is really like a stone, no oil and salt enter, no matter what tempting conditions they offer, but they still can't say that no one betrays Chen Mo, all of them are stinky and hard, and they are not moved by interests at all.

At this moment, John Jacob Astor is really out of line, and at the same time, he can't help but feel deeply jealous of Chen Mo, how did such a loyal and principled person who adheres to professional ethics all run under his hands?

He didn't have many loyal and reliable subordinates, and he himself wasn't sure if they would betray him when someone offered a high enough price, so he never trusted them easily, and was always on guard against being betrayed.

This often made him feel extremely tired, but he had to do this, so John Jacob Astor felt even more jealous of Chen Mo's subordinates who had summoned such a rare and reliable group of subordinates just by casual recruitment.

In fact, if he hadn't personally sent someone to test it, these people might not be able to get his reuse and trust even under him, after all, he was not Chen Mo, and without Chen Mo's super perception that could see the slightest changes in people's bodies, he couldn't screen out their true thoughts, so he naturally couldn't screen out qualified candidates from among many applicants, and he didn't dare to reuse them as reassuringly as Chen Mo.

Therefore, Chen Mo's way of managing assets in the style of throwing his hands in the hands of the shopkeeper is simply impossible for others to copy.

The method of bribing Chen Mo's private business team and copying Chen Mo's old bottom in one fell swoop did not work, and John Jacob Astor was jealous and angry, but he was unwilling to forget it like this, and soon had other ideas.

After buying Brooklyn, Chen Mo still had a lot of money in his hands, and as a large number of new furs were shipped over and quickly sold by the business team for cash, Chen Mo had more and more funds in his hands, so Chen Mo continued to start enclosing land around New York.

In the future five districts of New York, in addition to Manhattan and Brooklyn, there are also the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island, Chen Mo has very abundant funds in his hands, and these areas are all fields, villages and farms like Brooklyn, and the price is not high.

In his luxurious villa in the heart of Manhattan, John Jacob Astor got the news from the butler, and when his heart moved, he looked up and asked the butler.

"What do you think this Huaxia man wants to do?"

The butler heard John Jacob Astor's inquiry, bent slightly, and replied in a respectful voice.

"Master, I heard that these Chinese people are particularly keen to buy land, in China, all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, whether they are princes and princes, or officials and merchants, all own a large area of land, and people with different identities and different titles can have strict restrictions on the area of land they can have, the larger the land area, the higher the status of the person, if the land area exceeds the limit of their own identity, it is arrogance, it is to be killed."

When John Jacob Astor heard this, he already had some thoughts in his heart, but he listened to the butler continue.

"But in our America, there are no restrictions on land transactions, as long as you have money, you can buy land as much as you want."

Speaking of this, the corner of the butler's mouth couldn't help but show a mocking smile.

"This local bun from Huaxia must be rich in China but dare not buy land, after arriving in our United States, without the restrictions of those rules, the heart of this enclosure is out of control, I want to buy a large piece of land, and live a prince and nobleman addiction!"

When John Jacob Astor heard this, he couldn't help but nod his head, agreeing with the butler's statement.

Suddenly, John Jacob Astor's eyes lit up, and he had a plan in an instant.

Don't you like to hoard land?

Then I'll give you a good hand!
