Peggy Morgenthau tonight is clearly dressed up.

Well, this phrase is nonsense. Which upper-class woman who participates in such an important drinking party will be sloppy?

This has nothing to do with IQ, it is a woman's nature.

What's more, tonight, Peggy, as always, came with her grandfather.

If she didn't dress up well, Robert probably wouldn't. That would be hurting the face of the Morgenthau family, which is something that a traditional stubborn family like theirs cannot tolerate.

Tonight's Peggy has white teeth and red lips, blonde hair coiled behind her head, and her makeup is slightly mature, biased towards noble lady makeup.

She was wearing a dark blue floor-length dress with a long skirt.

The dark blue sleeveless V-neck tight tunic and hip fishtail skirt perfectly presents her proud white and tender upper curvature and ravines, and the kind of looming makes people unable to take their eyes off.

On Peggy's slender pink neck, she wears a ribbon-like white gold diamond necklace, which is dazzling.

This dress skirt is a good way to modify Peggy's graceful body, which is completely gourd-shaped, charming and dignified, contradictory and very harmonious.

After careful consideration, little Laura was a little discouraged.

She found that she seemed to be a little inferior to each other in terms of appearance and figure.

As for IQ

Little Laura remembers this woman, who is a super genius prodigy.

He got a doctorate in law when he was a teenager, and he is a real "child of someone else's" who is very famous in the East Coast Masaji circle.

Even little Laura, who is far away in Texas, has heard about it.

than family history

This point now looks like a slight winner for the shrub family.

Compared with the shrub family, which has already produced two grand commanders, Morgenthau is a family of prosecutors and a family of justice.

Morgensozu has had a big . Judge.

The older generation of this generation, Robert and his three brothers, are all prosecutors in important districts of the United States.

Among them, there is a high probability that he can become the new justice.

The premise is that the incumbent large. One of the judges happened to be hanging, and then the general commander was a member of the Donkey Party.

Younger generation. The younger generation of the shrub family, and there are not many people now.

Compared with her family background, little Laura feels that she is still a little better than her, but not much better.

Finally, compare the ability

The talent is all shrewd, and the little Laura in the heart of the palace doesn't want to compare at all.

It's also a futile annoyance.

Little Laura finally realizes that she doesn't seem to be able to compare to Peggy in every way.

Then how did Abel choose me?

In addition to her family background, little Laura thought of a great possibility.

Good as Peggy, traditional stubborn as the Morgenthau family.

She and them, most likely, will not allow her husband and their son-in-law to be so bad in some way, right?

At this point, the shrub family, which climbed up completely by marriage in the early stage, is more enlightened.

So Abel chose me because of this?

Little Laura thought like this, feeling a bit of a failure.

But anyway, he chose me in the end!

Little Laura finds her winning spot, which gives her a confident smile in front of Peggy.

The two started a "cordial and friendly" conversation, and Li Xinyu watched the excitement from the side.

But in fact, it was mainly little Laura who was asking, and Peggy's response was not very enthusiastic.

After chatting for a few minutes, little Laura realized that even if she wanted to outdo her in words, she didn't seem to have much sense of accomplishment.

Facing Peggy Morgenso, little Laura has the feeling of beating cotton and pumping air.

It's soft and weak, and it doesn't feel like a victory at all.

"Wow~"

Just as little Laura hesitated to see if she really couldn't compare to Peggy.

At the reception, almost everyone broke out

There was a lot of talking.

These voices attracted the attention of more than 30 ladies in the female guest area.

"What happened?"

"Why does it look so lively?"

"Look over there!"

Some female guests pointed out that it was some situations that occurred in the middle of the reception.

There are things that don't care about the lady's side.

The female guest, who had been paying attention to the situation on the male guest's side, reminded in a low voice:

"It seems that Mr. David Mellon just announced Smith Capital's earnings report for this year?"

Little Laura looked over and saw the male guests, all of whom were pulling something out of their pockets.

Someone took it out first, it was a crude and clumsy invitation from Smith Capital, and many people took out the invitation letter to read it.

Seeing this, little Laura had a proud smile on her face.

She greeted the female guests, including Peggy Morgenthau, and smiled:

"It's nothing, it should be Mr. David Mellon who asked everyone to see the invitation. The number on the invitation is the figure of Smith Capital's total profit this year."

Among the more than 30 female guests, there were just a few people holding invitations.

These ladies hurriedly took the invitation from the small bag.

After a while, one of the fastest moving ladies had already opened the invitation.

On the invitation, the lady only found a number [$458] at the end.

The other numbers are only the numbers of years, months, days, and time.

That obviously won't be Smith Capital's earnings figure this year.

「【$458】？ What does that number mean?" The lady couldn't help but ask.

"That's right. I also have [$458] on my invitation." Another lady followed suit:

"$458? Or $4.58 million? $45.8 million? $458 million? It's not going to be $4.58 billion, or $45.8 billion, right?"

They couldn't help but look at little Laura.

The latter nodded with a reserved smile and looked at Peggy with beautiful eyes.

Peggy still has that quiet and gentle expression, and when little Laura looked over, she even took the initiative to smile at little Laura.

Little Laura was helpless, smiled back, and at the same time said softly:

"That's right. Abel just told me. Smith Capital's gross profit this year totals $45.8 billion!"

"Wow!"

In the line of female guests, the same discussion broke out as in the male guests just now.

Be able to participate in this reception tonight.

You can also be brought by a male partner or boyfriend, or a female guest by her husband.

None of them were ordinary women.

Either they are from a big family, a wealthy family.

Either he is particularly capable, such as Wendy Deng, who is mixed in the crowd and has a somewhat marginal status.

She persuaded her husband to come with Murdoch, which is also a manifestation of ability.

Everyone, including Wendy Deng, knows what a gross profit of $45.8 billion means to a company.

It means that this year, in terms of profits, Smith Capital may be the crown of all companies in the world!

"We heard you right, right? Miss Bush, you just said $45.8 billion?"

Wendy Deng, who was at the very edge of the circle, asked in a loud voice.

At this time when everyone was curious, Wendy Deng felt that she could take the initiative and get some attention among these women.

Several other female guests also joined in and asked:

"yes, $45.8 billion! The Lord is above, and that's hard to believe."

"I'm sorry, I'm so shocked. But I'd really like to make sure."

Little Laura didn't care about the others, she didn't see much of an extra look on Peggy's face.

This makes Xiao Lao

Ra was a little disappointed, but in the face of the women's questions, she also smiled and pointed to the male guests.

"Look there. Gentlemen and gentlemen, the reaction from their side is the most real."

Little Laura's words drew everyone's attention and attention to the male guests at the reception.

At this time, Soros, like many people, opened the invitation and looked at the numbers on it.

When he was in the elevator hall outside, George had already discovered this problem.

At that time, he was a little skeptical, but he didn't expect that the figure [$458] would be $45.8 billion.

It's Smith Capital's profit for the year

In other words, Smith Capital has actually plotted their profits for the year in their invitation letter this year.

It's just that no one knew that Smith Capital's profits this year would be so exaggerated.

No one would have thought that this figure was actually a company's profit in a year!

Soros took a deep breath and looked at Tims, who was also in shock.

"Timms, tell me." Soros's voice was low, "Is there so much profit from Soros Fund Company and Quantum Fund this year?"

Tims smiled wryly.

「BOSS。 It's hard, I don't think so. As of October, Soros Fund had a profit of $3.25 billion. I don't know about the quantum fund, but it shouldn't be more than $5 billion, because last year's profit from the quantum fund was $5 billion."

"The Quantum Fund hasn't made any big moves this year, so I think it's probably just that kind of profit."

It's not that the Quantum Fund hasn't made a big move this year, but in the biggest move this year, it not only hasn't made much money.

On the contrary, it wasted several months of Soros's time, and even lost millions of dollars

Tims didn't dare to say it directly, it was a relatively rare failure of the boss.

Tims had to say it indirectly, a little euphemistically.

Soros couldn't help but rub his eyes, and he didn't know if it was because he was uncomfortable wearing contact lenses, or if he was in a bad mood.

Compared with Timms, when he was in London, he saw Soros operated by Abel on London Gold.

To be honest, he didn't doubt Smith Capital's earnings figures.

Soros remembers that time, Abel made almost $4 billion in the international financial capital market in just one afternoon.

Subsequently, on the Norwegian krone, at least tens of billions of dollars were cut.

The two profits that Soros knows alone add up to more than $15 billion.

Over the course of the year, the total profit was more than $40 billion.

Soros doesn't think this would be a lie.

What's more, this is just a simple total report, and there will definitely be a full financial report for investors and investors to see later.

This number can deceive people, but in the complete financial report, it is not so easy to deceive people.

Someone is going to contact a company like PricewaterhouseCoopers and do an accounting actuarial.

These most professional top people can easily calculate whether Smith Capital and Abel are lying!

Thinking of this, Soros knows this number, probably true.

In Soros's view, being able to make money is especially good at making money, and can make many times more money than most people.

This was Abel's greatest reliance.

Able could not have lied about this, because if Abel's lying in this regard had been exposed.

The consequences would be severe, and it would cause Abel's current golden body to be shattered.

As long as Abel knew this, Soros felt that he should not mess around.

Soros remembered his time in London, his time with Abel and his own observations.

One of the well-known representatives of the oil man in the financial world, he believes that Abel will not lie and deceive people in this regard.

Soros also took a deep breath on his face

I couldn't help but smile wryly.

He told Timms, "That's probably true. In other words, Abel Smith and his Smith Capital have made five times the profits of my two companies in one year this year! Fack, Fack!"

Speaking of the back, Soros, the oil guy who is forbidden to swear in the dogma, couldn't help but curse in a whisper.

Timms is very close to the boss and feels very much with the boss.

At this time, Abel, who was surrounded in the middle of the crowd and received everyone's fanatical attention, kept smiling, and his expression looked calm.

At this moment, the big donkey and the giant elephant not far away, the two giants of Capitol Hill walked over.

Amid the slightly frenzied talk of Wall Street and the plutocrats, Richard Bruce Cheney, the deputy of the owner of the White House, the President of the Senate and the Deputy General of the United States.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to Bloomberg, who was standing next to Abel and had been smiling all the way forward.

"Congratulations, Michael." Richard affectionately reached out to him, "You've won."

Bloomberg was stunned and subconsciously shook Cheney's hand.

He was rejoicing that he had decided to invest in Smith Capital at the beginning of the year.

Bloomberg, who holds a 4% stake in Smith Capital, is one of the happiest vested interests in the field, along with Warren Buffett and Sullivenston.

Suddenly seeing Deputy Commander Cheney say this to himself, Bloomberg was stunned.

Then House Minority Leader and one of the big donkeys, Richard Gephardt, smiled and stretched out his hand to him:

"Congratulations, Michael. Mark had already decided to throw in the towel."

He also shook hands with one of the representatives of the Donkey Party.

Bloomberg finally knew what was going on.

With a smile on his face, he said softly, "Mr. Gephardt, what you just said is true? Has Mr. Mark Green admitted it?"

Richard Gephardt shrugged, and although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still said very gracefully:

"Yes. This time we lost in New York. But in four years we'll win it back, and I hope you understand that."

"Hah!" Deputy Commander Cheney next to him immediately said, "That's impossible. Richard, Michael can win you once, then he can win you again!"

"Hehehe," Richard Gephardt smirked back.

People around this circle.

At this time, through the dialogue between the donkey and the giant elephant, as well as Bloomberg, I understood one thing.

That's this year's election in New York, and it should be Michael Bloomberg's victory.

Listen to what Richard Gephardt and Cheney just meant.

It was the candidate on the Donkey Party's side who conceded defeat and announced his withdrawal.

This was a tradition when elephants and donkeys were not separated.

That is, when elections are held on both sides, when victory is in sight on one side.

When the other party sees that the efforts are ineffective, they will announce in the media that they congratulate the other party and admit that they have lost the election, which looks polite and full of gentlemanly demeanor.

Now it should be Mark Green who saw that there was no hope of victory and took the initiative to withdraw.

So after a day today, Bloomberg, who has already led Mark Green by 150,000 votes.

Naturally, he was elected as the next New York City. long, can take office after January next year.

Abel also realized this, and he looked at Bloomberg, who was surprised.

Abel thought for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Bloomberg's hand and held Bloomberg's hand up.

Then the chairman of Smith Capital announced loudly to the guests present:

"Everyone! Guys, look at it, look at this side. Look at this Mr. Michael Bloomberg next to me. Many of you should know him, he is the founder and chairman of Bloomberg."

"But today, I'm announcing another identity for Mr. Bloomberg."

"Mr. Bloomberg's new identity is that he has become our new mayor next year.

Mr. Long. Ladies and gentlemen, we are together for our new city. How about Mr. Chang's applause?"

As soon as Abel finished speaking, the two Davids on the side and Smith Capital's own people immediately took the lead in applauding.

Ted Lerner and Barron Hilton, who were a little sluggish, immediately applauded.

Seeing this, the guests at the reception all put down their wine glasses, followed Abel's advice, and all applauded.

In the huge applause, Bloomberg, who was extremely surprised, turned around and gave Abel a hug fiercely-

"Thank you, thank you, dear Abel, my dearest friend! Thank you very much and thank you all! As a new New York Public Servant, I will work hard to serve all the citizens of New York and bring beauty and light to all of you in my tenure."

In the applause, many people looked at Bloomberg, who was so excited that he took the initiative to hug Abel.

A thought crossed their minds.

That is, in the city of New York, there may be no one who can compete with Abel Smith in the future.

A huge group and consortium with New York as the main base and headed by Abel Smith.

It's taking shape at this moment today.

Let's take a look at the characters around Abel Smith.

Warren Buffett and Sullivenston are representatives of the two major forces in the American financial community, the East Coast and the Central Region.

Bloomberg, New York City. Chang, the founder of Bloomberg, one of the top bigwigs of the oil man, and one of the leaders of the oil man power. In the oil man, it is similar to Soros.

Cheney, President of the Senate, Deputy to the White House Owner. His appearance is the platform of Elephant Party and George, to some extent to Abel Smith!

Even Richard Gephardt, the big man of the Donkey Party. His appearance can also be regarded as a way for the Donkey Party to take the initiative to show favor to Abel Smith and not want Abel to completely fall into the Elephant Party.

The simultaneous appearance of these two people can be considered that Abel has become a figure worthy of both the donkey and the elephant at the same time.

In addition to these people, Paulson, David Comansky, Philip Purcell, Richard Forder, and so on surrounded them.

These investment banking giants can also be seen as Wall Street's active overtures to Abel.

Against the backdrop of these figures, more than 300 guests will attend tonight.

Most of them have a strange feeling of witnessing the birth of history.

They witnessed the emergence and birth of a new huge interest group with Abel Smith as the core.

Some people are thinking.

Maybe a new member will be added to the federation.

There's another chapter later, but it may be late, so don't wait to get up and read it tomorrow.
