Chapter 54: A Trip to the United States IV

readx;? Wang Weihou continued after a pause: "When I was very young, my father used all his savings to open this 'Wang Family Inn', and the business has always been good, but a stock market crash on Wall Street a few years ago seriously affected the Chinese in Chinatown. The ensuing crisis www.biquge.info brought the inn to the point of closing.

My mother also passed away due to illness and lack of money for treatment. At that time, your sister-in-law and I had just had your nephew, and the family was full and hungry. After the United States changed Roosevelt as president the year before last, there was some relief, which made all aspects better. But these reliefs rarely fall on us Chinese, we Chinese still live a life of having a meal without a meal, everyone is like this, what business can I do in this inn. ”

After listening to Wang Weihou's words and what he saw when he entered Chinatown. Wang Haitao developed a deep sympathy for these overseas Chinese. Wang Haitao calculated that there were more than nine tons of gold in his storage ring, and according to the current gold price in the United States, one ton of gold could be exchanged for more than 1.1 million US dollars, and he should be able to buy a factory. I can let Wang Weihou be the general manager and let these Chinese come to work in the factory, so as to change the lives of some Chinese.

What kind of industry to buy a factory, this is a question. After much consideration, Wang Haitao decided to buy a steel mill. The reason is that if you have a steel plant, then your arsenal will not have raw materials? Not to mention the World War II and the reconstruction of various countries after the war, which will occur in a few years, these factors will make the steel industry get a huge development.

Now Wang Haitao has just had such an idea, so naturally he won't say anything to Wang Weihou. After a night's rest, Wang Haitao completely recovered from the fatigue caused by traveling. Early the next morning, after Wang Haitao and Wang Weihou said hello, they began the first step of the action, finding a place to store a ton of gold from their storage ring.

Wang Haitao first found a house for sale in the newspaper. After Wang Haitao saw the house, he was satisfied with all aspects, and then he paid for the house and went through the procedures. Fortunately, it was very simple to handle these procedures at that time, and after Wang Haitao paid an extra tip of dozens of dollars, he asked the enthusiastic staff to complete the procedures on the same day. After completing the formalities and getting the house, the following things are simple.

Wang Haitao, who had spent the night in his new house, wrapped a large Chinese-style gold bar in leather in the morning and went to the Morgan & Co. building on Wall Street. Morgan & Co. was a financial giant in the United States at the time, with a variety of industries under its name, and the steel industry also established American Steel Corporation because of the acquisition of Carnegie's steel company at the beginning of the century, and the most famous is the financial industry and banks.

After Wang Haitao came to the Morgan Bank in the Morgan Building, someone immediately greeted him and said politely: "Hello, this gentleman." Is there anything I can do to help you?" Wang Haitao nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, I have some inquiries about gold exchange." The man asked, "Do you want to buy gold, sir?"

Wang Haitao replied: "I have some gold ready to sell. The man asked again: "I don't know how much gold you are going to sell, sir, did you bring your gold today?" Wang Haitao said: "The quantity will definitely not be small, otherwise I would not have found your Morgan Bank, today I only brought samples." When that person heard Wang Haitao say this, he said: "Since this is the case, sir, please go to the VIP room with me for a while, and I will go and inform the manager to talk to you in person." ”

After saying this, the man ushered Wang Haitao into a VIP room and gave him a cup of coffee. Wang Haitao only waited in the VIP room for a while, and the door of the VIP room opened, and two people walked in from outside the door. The person who walked in front of the person who led Wang Haitao should be the manager of Morgan Bank, and Wang Haitao was very surprised when he saw it, because this person Wang Haitao had also seen him.

This person is the father of the lovely child Wang Haitao saw on the cruise. This person was obviously stunned when he saw Wang Haitao, and then said: "Are you the Chinese on the cruise ship?" Wang Haitao stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, sir." We meet again, are your beautiful lady and lovely children all right?" the manager also smiled and replied: "I'm so glad to meet you again, my wife and children are very good, thank you for your greetings." By the way, I heard that you have some gold to sell to our Morgan Bank, right?"

Wang Haitao replied: "Yes." The manager said, "Then please sit down, let's sit down and talk." With that, he sat down on the couch. Wang Haitao also sat down, and the staff member exited the VIP room. The manager asked, "Sir, how much gold do you have?" Wang Haitao took out the prepared gold bars from his bag and said to the manager: "You better check the samples first, and then we will talk about the others." ”

The manager picked up the gold and tried it, then went to the door and called a clerk to give him a few words, handed the gold bar to the clerk, then came back and sat down and said, "Sir, I'm afraid you will have to wait a little longer, your sample is not small." By the way, my name is Pete, Morgan, you can call me Pete. My boy John has always been obsessed with your Chinese kung fu?"

After the two talked for a while, a clerk came in outside the door and handed Manager Pitt a piece of paper. After Pete lowered his head and read the paper carefully, he said to Wang Haitao: "Mr. Wang [Wang Haitao has already said his name in the previous chat], your sample has been tested, and the condition is very good, reaching 991.0. The weight is 312.5 grams, which is equal to 10.0469 ounces. Right?"

Wang Haitao nodded. Pete asked, "So how much gold can you sell to us, Mr. Wang, and is it in exactly the same condition?" Wang Haitao replied, "I have a total of two tons of gold of the same color that I can sell to your Morgan Bank, but it depends on the price you offer." Pete listened to Wang Haitao's words, and was frightened for a while, and it took a long time to reflect.

Pete asked in a surprised tone, "Did I hear me right?" Mr. Wang, you just said that you have two tons of gold? You are not kidding?" Wang Haitao smiled faintly and said: "You heard it right, I am not joking, I have two tons, which is 2,000 kilograms, which is equal to 64,300 ounces." Pete stood up and said, "Mr. Wang, please wait a moment, I need to make a call." With that, he left the VIP room.
