Zhao Chuanxin suddenly narrowed his eyes.

No matter how polite the old guy is, he can't change Zhao Chuanxin's impression of him.

Just like in the financial crisis, the old guy seems to be bailing out the market and is praised by the world, but the process is full of selfish behavior.

At first, he also watched the fire from the other side, waiting for others to come to the door for help, and then established his position to profit from it.

What silence is like gold, what kindness, it is difficult to say that there is no place for him among the famous and decent people who besiege Guangming Ding.

Zhao Chuanxin quickly calculated in his heart, and simply said: "Nikola is my own brother, and Woden Creverta should belong to me after returning the 30,000 US dollars." ”

This kind of arrogant attitude and scoundrel face are very in line with his Zhao Chuanxin's personality.

Morgan remained unmoved: "Although the tower and the experimental equipment in it cost far more than $30,000. But if Mr. Zhao wants it, what if I give it as a gift to Mr. Zhao? ”

Historically, Nikola Tesla was not only fined $23,500 by the court, but the Wordencliffe Tower was also dismantled, and the experimental equipment was confiscated by the court as collateral.

Zhao Chuanxin immediately continued: "You are really generous, for which I thank you for my half-brother." ”

After speaking, he happily put away the money on the table.

Morgan: "......"

Zhao Chuanxin struck while the iron was hot: "Then, I will find someone to sign a contract with Mr. Morgan as soon as possible, so as not to confiscate the experimental equipment or something from the court in the future." ”

Morgan had never seen anyone so brazen.

But at the same time, he was more vigilant.

This man must not be offended, but must be coaxed.

180,000, it's not a big deal to lose.

There is no such thing as doing business without losing money.

It's just a drop in the bucket for him.

At the beginning, he invested in Woden Creverta, not because he was optimistic about Nikola Tesla, but because he thought that radio could make money in the future and had a great future.

But after Marconi got ahead of him, the investment became meaningless.

He didn't believe that Zhao Chuanxin was running the train with his mouth full of words, and thought that Zhao Chuanxin must have found other profitable key points.

Could it be that there are other possibilities for radio?

Morgan suddenly said: "Mr. Zhao, if you are short of money, I can invest in shares, and we can actually become partners, not enemies." ”

Zhao Chuanxin didn't expect him to say this, and was stunned for a moment: "My brother has a weird temper, forget about this." However, cooperation in other areas is not unavoidable. Although I will return to China, my business will continue to be done. ”

The words are not blocked.

Because all the money for Zhao Chuanxin has already been arranged.

Including the funds recently squeezed out from Kang Youwei, all of them were used to invest in Nikola Tesla's research and development.

There are only tens of thousands of dollars left in the cash on his body.

It also includes the $30,000 that was brought.

Just as he was about to leave after a few nonsense words, Zhao Chuanxin saw a little boy holding a paper-folded swift in his hand, and ran into the study from outside with the sound of fluttering wings in his mouth.

Zhao Chuanxin beckoned to him: "Young man, come here." ”

The little boy was stunned for a moment, looked at old Morgan, and saw that old Morgan nodded, so he walked timidly towards Zhao Chuanxin.

"Hello sir, my name is Henry Sturgis Morgan."

Morgan Sr. explained: "This is my grandson. ”

Mr. Zhao had vaguely heard the name, and he later founded Morgan Stanley, while the Morgan consortium was divided into three. Several big bosses in the United States have received the support of the Morgan family, and Da Luo is also among them, which is also the reason why the Morgan family can be prosperous in the United States.

He said, "Did you fold this swift?" ”

"Yes, sir." The little guy said proudly.

Zhao Chuanxin took out a Lugang Town candy ball and stuffed it into Henry Sturgis Morgan's mouth.

Morgan Sr. was a little worried, but he didn't say anything to stop it.

Henry Sturgis Morgan, after tasting the sugar ball, immediately smiled.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled: "In addition to folding swifts, what else will you fold?" ”

Henry Sturgis Morgan proudly said, "Sir, I can also fold quills." ”

Zhao Chuanxin took the cigar brought by the housekeeper and lit it, and took a sip of tea: "Really?" The so-called threesome must have my teacher, then you teach me, I really want to learn to fold a quill. ”

Henry Sturgis Morgan was excited.

Other adults don't play with children, but this person in front of him actually asked him to teach him origami, what a good gentleman.

He excitedly went to the bookshelf and pulled out a book, and tore off a page.

Old Morgan's cheeks twitched as he watched.

If it weren't for Zhao Chuanxin, it is estimated that he would definitely have to teach this kid a lesson.

He handles the raw edges of the paper with his hands and feet, cuts it, and folds it in half repeatedly.

In a short time, a crooked quill took shape.

Henry Sturgis Morgan handed the quills to Zhao Chuanxin: "Sir, look. ”

The little face was full of "praise me" expressions.

After all, the next generation, the old Morgan's old face smiled very rarely: "The little guys are very smart, and our Morgan family depends on them to prosper." ”

So sassy?

Then Zhao Chuanxin had to beat him.

also laughed: "Yes, you can be happy for a long time by eating a candy ball, and you can play origami without crying or making trouble."

This child is easy to feed and is naturally suitable to be an orphan! ”

Morgan Sr. froze and darkened.

After a while, he said calmly: "Mr. Zhao, I said that the Morgan family will no longer be your enemy, we are friends now, aren't we?" ”

Anyway, Zhao Chuanxin is leaving New York and leaving the United States.

In fact, if you talk about finding someone to cooperate, although the old Morgan is an old yin, Zhao Chuanxin chooses to cooperate with him, and he will not choose Rockefeller.

But he ignored old Morgan, and patted Henry Sturgis Morgan on the head: "Very good, this quill is very useful to me, for which I will reward you with a treasure." ”

The little guy's eyes lit up: "What is it, sir?" ”

Zhao Chuanxin took out a piece of green beauty turquoise made in the United States.

This kind of green beauty the size of a child's fist, pure color, delicate texture, strong gloss, without a single iron line, and most importantly without any optimization, is also rare.

Turquoise in the United States was produced in large quantities, and at this time, the price was low, and Zhao Chuanxin allowed Freddie Pavit to buy a lot of it as inventory.

He took out the elven carving knife and winked at Henry Sturgis Morgan, "Young man, it's time to show off your true skills. ”

As he spoke, the carving knife flew up and down, and the crumbs of turquoise fell on the worsted wool carpet.

In a moment, the turquoise in Zhao Chuanxin's hand was carved into a rough prototype.

Morgan was shocked.

I didn't expect Zhao Chuanxin to have such a hand.

It's not like a cold-blooded reckless man can do it.

And Henry Sturgis Morgan's eyes were bright, staring straight at the turquoise and the elven carving knife.

Jiang Bo's face was full of surprise.

Zhao Chuanxin retouched the details, and everyone immediately saw that this was a mermaid.

The reason why Zhao Chuanxin's carving is fast lies in the decoration of details. For example, it may take a long time for others to produce the details, but under the elven carving knife, the intricacies are only completed in an instant.

His hands, and his knives, were incredibly fast.

Before they could react, Zhao Chuanxin took the knife.

He lifted the Little Mermaid, puffed out his cheeks and blew hard: "Whew......"

Then he handed it to Henry Sturgis Morgan: "This is my return gift." ”

Henry Sturgis Morgan was overjoyed and excitedly took the turquoise mermaid and couldn't put it down: "Thank you, sir." ”

Old Morgan was speechless.

It's only been less than half an hour, and his grandson seems to be closer to Zhao Chuanxin than he is.

I'm afraid this person is not a professional kidnapper?

But the hand-carved piece is so lifelike, as if the mermaid is about to come to life.

This is very in line with the American aesthetic, which is more realistic and vivid, especially the hair, which can carve so many strands of hair in stone, is simply ingenious.

After all, he saved $30,000, and Zhao Chuan's salary also said.

Benefit without cost.

But none of the four people in the study expected that this turquoise handle would be bought at a high price of millions of dollars in later generations, but Henry Sturgis Morgan did not sell it even after his death.

After carving, Zhao Chuanxin got up: "Then, let's stop here today." I'm about to go back to my home country and see Mr. Morgan again. ”

Henry Sturgis Morgan reluctantly said, "Sir, why don't you stay at the mansion for one night, my grandfather's other friends will stay for the night." ”

Zhao Chuanxin patted him on the head: "Next time, it is estimated that you will grow into a real man at that time." ”

"Sir, when I grow up, I'll go play with you."

"That's fine, it's a word."

Old Morgan seems to have discovered a new world.

The dialogue between Zhao Chuanxin and the child revealed a rare pure side.

It can be seen that he is not perfunctory out of politeness, but really likes children.

And Zhao Chuanxin doesn't seem to know what politeness is.

Old Morgan asked his own coachman to set up a car and used his own car to send Zhao Chuanxin and the two away.

"Mr. Zhao, I wish you a smooth journey."

Zhao Chuanxin nodded and left.

When the carriage disappeared from sight, old Morgan stretched out his hand to his reluctant grandson: "I'll look at the Little Mermaid." ”

Turquoise is warm, but the density is far less than that of gemstones, pearls, and jade, and it has a unique feeling in the hand.

Old Morgan shook his head: "This person is really unpredictable. ”

"Grandpa, who are you talking about?"

"That person just now, his name is Zhao Chuanxin, remember, you can't offend him in the future."

"I'm going to play with him when I grow up, he's amazing."

"Be obedient, don't offend, and don't get too close, this kind of person is too dangerous."

on the carriage.

Jiang Bo asked, "Who are you?" Why is old Morgan so deferential to you? ”

"Because it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and it is not too late for a villain to take revenge from morning to night. Obviously, I am a gentleman. ”

"You're afraid it's the other way around, are you?" Jiang Bo asked the bottom of the question: "In the future, you will be my gold master, you have to tell me your name, right?" ”

"Hehe, my name is Zhao Chuanxin."

"Oh, I haven't heard of it."

From this incident, it can be seen that this thing doesn't read the newspaper, and his mouth is so cheap that others don't want to deal with him and gossip about him.

Jiang Bo looked at the scenery outside the car window and asked curiously, "What now?" Where are we going? ”

"Cool pot sticker cake - wilting!"
