New York is particularly lively at night in the summer, with people browning in the streets, horse-drawn carriages and tramways, and gas lamps on both sides like fireflies waving their tails desperately in the night sky, adding dazzling brilliance to this emerging metropolis.

This is New York, the glittering Big Apple along the Atlantic coast!

Even in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the air of the city was still full of drunken luxury, with bars, theaters, restaurants of all kinds, and the famous Broadway, with upbeat dance music echoing in the night sky at the speed of the city's development.

Looking out the window at the flowers, Li Enfu really couldn't calm down, so he had to turn his head and bite his lip, where did Thomas jump up and down like he was smiling!

"Dear Lee, are you really not thinking about it anymore?" Thomas was dressed in a neat dress, his hair was combed like wax, and his red eyes surrounded Young Master Li like a red-headed fly that had been combed and dressed.

Young Master Li held his chin and ignored him, just staring at the nameplate placed on the table in the room in a daze.

"The Plaza Hotel?"

This hotel is too familiar to him, or it is too unfamiliar!

Although Li Mo passed shoulders with New York many times in his previous life, he was very familiar with this century-old restaurant, because when the hotel celebrated its centennial that year, he happened to be on a business trip in the United States.

But it's because it's so familiar that it feels even more strange. Bynecke and innkeeper Fred. Sturry and their good friend Harry. Co-invested by Blake and co-financed by renowned architect Henry Brown. Designed by Hardenberg and built in the style of the French Renaissance, the famous hotel that lasted for two years was only opened on October 1, 1907, even if it was built for two years before, it should not have appeared in 1891!

Wrong!

Li Mo shook his head, although he had never lived in the Plaza Hotel, but the general appearance was still known, the design and the size of the building in front of him could not be compared with the memory, and the main body of the building was still very new, at first glance, it had just opened a few years ago, could it be that those tycoons had crossed over to him?

Looking at the nameplate blankly, Li Mo couldn't figure it out, but whether it was the luxurious decoration of the room in front of him, or the dazzling all-bright electric light when he first stepped into the hotel, it all told him that he didn't dream, and it seemed that the fame of this Plaza Hotel was not much smaller than the one in his impression.

Especially the electric lights dotted around the hotel, even Li Mo can't help but shine in the era, in the era when gas lamps are still dominant, electric lights are a valuable novelty, even if Edison began to sell light bulbs in 1880, but the application of electricity has just begun, especially the famous direct current and alternating current controversy, which directly led to two famous scientists spitting at each other.

But what do you see now? This old hotel is full of electric lights! It's like when you see a building in China in the 80s decorating the night view with a brilliant laser screen!

The eyeballs are spent!

As soon as he saw the electric light, Master Li remembered the guy who was amazing, created an era in the electromagnetic field, and was nicknamed a monster and a future time-traveler by netizens, but was sealed by the FBI after his death!

"I don't know how long it will take Duan Fei to find him!" Thinking of the list that he had personally handed over to Duan Fei a few days ago, Li Mo sniffed.

Fortunately, what does Young Master Li say is also an elegant person who once lived in the bright lights and green sky, and soon returned to normal after a moment of distraction, Li Enfu and Zhang Shun, who were traveling with him, have been in the United States for many years, and they also know about electric lights, only Du Dazhuang's house, staring at the bulb with bull's eyes, seems to wonder why that thing will glow when it is holding the thread.

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Thomaston changed his face: "Lee, you can't do this, for the sake of our friends for many years, or ...... We only sell gold? ”

Young Master Li turned his head and stared at Thomas's letter suit, which even he was jealous of, thinking if he would strip him naked now and let him [***] preside over the auction?!

"[***] Auction?! Grandma, what a great idea! It should be in the headlines of tomorrow, or if you put another advertisement on his stomach, it won't be in vain! Young Master Li looked at Thomas's stomach, looking left and right, and couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Thomas's heart is a little weak, anyone who is looked at by a little man on his stomach for a long time will get goosebumps, but he still doesn't give up. That's a gold mine! Even the smallest of the three now produces three tonnes of gold per year! What's more, after this auction is over, after the scale of mining is expanded, how can it be said that there will be five tons of gold per year!

A five-tonne-a-year gold mine! That's the root of life, how can you say that you sell it? "Li, I solemnly protest to you, as the second largest shareholder of the gold mine, I have decided to use the veto power to prohibit ......."

"The right of veto? I don't care about you! "Young Master Li hates to hear this word the most, I don't know why I think of the American imperialist who threatens other countries in later generations, isn't this an eye medicine for the young master who is planning the Pacific Ocean!

Kicked the noisy guy away: "One gold mine can be compared to ten gold mines?" Young Master Li spoke earnestly and continued to flicker: "What we need now is funds, a lot of money, and then use it to make new investments." ”

"A new investment? Ten gold mines! Thinking of Master Li's magical spell of drawing circles on the map, Thomas's eyes turned green, and he got up and rushed to Li Mo, gritting his teeth: "Li, what you said is true!" ”

Young Master Li blinked: "Don't believe me? Then I'll do it myself. ”

"No way!" Thomas was furious, you did it alone, what should I do, and hurriedly roared: "Li, don't you want to leave me, this time I want fifteen percent of the shares, and I also have to learn spells!" Ha ha....... ”

"Idiot." Young Master Li rolled his eyes and raised his hand: "Five! Love or not. ”

Li Enfu looked at this pair of living treasures from the side, smiled and shook his head, although he had also heard of Li Mo's various magics, but he scoffed at the spells in Thomas's mouth, this thing was obviously taken out by the young master to fool people, but Thomas, a well-educated guy, still hung it in his mouth every day, and he came to ask himself for verification just now!

"One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, what a pair of monsters!" Li Dawen couldn't help but burst into foul language.

Jessie. Sharp. Vermore

Andrew. Carnegie.

Edward H. Harriman.

Morgan.

Rockefeller.

……

Because he didn't want to be exposed to the spotlight too early, Master Li didn't have the opportunity to go downstairs in person to greet those famous super-rich people, but when he stood on the windowsill of the room and saw the names of the people downstairs rushing in from the carriage and stepping on the red carpet, he was still a little in a trance.

These people, and the consortium oligarchs behind them, ruled the United States in this era, and even after a hundred years, their names will still be mentioned from time to time, becoming the idol of every aspiring young man who dreams of entrepreneurship!

These people, they are the darlings of this era, some rely on diligence, some rely on luck, and some rely on clever means, but no matter what they rely on, they are standing at the peak of this era!

They are super-rich!

No, it should be said that it is a fat sheep, a super fat sheep!

The steel tycoon Carnegie's steel trust alone had a total output of $50 million last year, as well as oil tycoons, railroad tycoons, and banking oligarchs, .......

God, these people downstairs are worth more than a billion in total!

This is not the 21st century, the late 19th century dollar is like a papyrus, but it is very, very valuable! If it weren't for playing low-key, Young Master Li would have wanted to rush downstairs and ask them to write their names in the signature book, and then pass it on to their grandson's grandson, and collect it for a hundred years to be auctioned!

That's a lot of money!

"Mr. Li, why didn't you think of auctioning off the invitation first? So many rich people, not a small income! Young Master Li's face was full of unhappiness, and he turned his head and shouted.

Li Enfu's face is red, selling invitations to make money? This has not happened since ancient times!

Du Dazhuang and Zhang Shun couldn't help but feel ashamed of the young master's thoughts, and decided to turn their heads and ignore the young master, although most of the people below didn't know each other, but as long as they looked at Li Enfu's hands pinching the windowsill and his finger bones were blue, they knew that these guys were terrible.

Looking at these guys who can make the American financial community cold with a sneeze, the arc of Li Enfu's mouth is more and more amazing, even if he knows Li Mo and Thomas's plan, you can imagine what a big feast it is.

What made him even more excited was that the person who single-handedly planned this auction and attracted so many celebrities and big names was actually by his side, and he was only fifteen years old!

Sixteen! Use the virtual year, otherwise you have to eat apples a year later!

"In other words, the two apples at home are becoming more and more attractive! Gee....... Young Master Li drooled and waved his hand to count.

Beside him, Zhang Shun was already dizzy, although he didn't know how much money the people below had, at least he had followed Thomas for so long, and he often went in and out of luxurious places, and his eyesight was still a little strong.

"Brother Shunzi, how much money do you say you can do at the auction tonight? The young master can say, waiting to pay for the warship. Du Dazhuang didn't dare to ask the young master, so he had to bump Zhang Shun's shoulder.

"As far as I can see." Zhang Shun pretended to think about it and stretched out five fingers.

"Half a million dollars?"

"Hey~, boy, I deserve to follow the young master, and I also know how to settle accounts in dollars, unlike Li Qiang's stupid hats, who know silver and silver." Zhang Shunqiao cocked his thumb: "At least add another number." ”

"Five million!" Da Zhuang's eyes were straight, and the young master broke his fingers: "How many steaks do you have to buy!" ”

"Grandma! Let's make the steak delicious! "Zhang Shun really wants to kick this big guy away, so the steak counts as money? What a shame! "It's delicious." Du Dazhuang nodded, and then his face was full of anger: "It's just that the foreign cooks are always uncooked, which makes my teeth and mouth bad." ”

"Burnt or cooked? Say! Young Master Li kicked away this guy who didn't know how to enjoy himself, and pressed Zhang Shun's slap down: "I told Thomas, if you don't have 50 million, you will deduct his shares!" ”

"Five...... Million! ”

Li Enfu's tongue was knotted, not to mention Zhang Shun and Du Dazhuang, and their eyes began to glow green.

Under the gaze of the six eyes, Young Master Li nodded happily, turned his head and pointed at the crowd downstairs, and licked his tongue: "If you two go down and tie them all up now, you can at least get a ransom of one or two hundred million!" ”

Or...... Hundred million?!

Du Dazhuang trembled, his eyes were blazing and glaring at Zhang Shun, and his big scarlet tongue circled around his mouth.

", don't?"
