Chapter 352: More like a financial devil than Lohill
"You're welcome, Mr. Encore Lee."
The Lincoln Center for the Arts in New York, at the gate of the Metropolitan Theater.
Milo responded to Li Zhaoxin with a smile, "You should know that you call me "the good friends of the Chinese people." As friends, I think it is appropriate to give each other a little gift. Didn't you also give me what I want?"
Li Zhaoxin smiled reservedly, knowing that Milo refers to not long ago.
The Panda Protection Park in Shudu, China, is rented to a pair of pandas in Franklin Zoo in Boston.
The Franklin Zoo in Boston covers an area of 72 acres, with a total of 220 species and carries more than a thousand animals.
Although there are even tropical areas, there is no panda.
But not long ago, Ivana's child, Little Jinpu, saw the panda animation and said he wanted to watch pandas.
At that time, it happened that China was inviting Milo to attend their National Day celebration.
And this time we pay special attention to it, because this is their fiftieth anniversary celebration.
Milo said to Li Zhaoxin at that time, hoping to make a cute animal like panda appear in Boston's zoo.
I guess he was very particular, not long after he made this request.
The Franklin Zoo in Boston and Shudu reached a cooperation agreement and rented a pair of pandas to the Franklin Zoo.
At this time, the pandas have even been in Boston's customs, quarantine and adapt to the local climate.
After knowing that there will be pandas in Boston, local citizens are very happy.
I have to say that the animals pandas are very magical, and almost all people in the world like them from the bottom of their hearts.
It's not just because they are rare enough.
In addition to their black and white colors, they are very classic.
Another important reason is that they are beasts, but they are indeed cute.
Subsequently, Milo told the embassy where Li Zhaoxin was responsible.
He is going to give a small gift from China again.
As for the gift... it is still in the auction inside.
The interior of the Grand Guild Theater in the auction hall.
The luxurious crystal chandeliers hang high in the dome, and countless dazzling crystals reflect a warm and soft halo like honey, which evenly fall on every corner of the hall, covering the entire space with a dreamy gauze.
The air was filled with a faint smell of perfume and a nervous atmosphere, and everyone's eyes were focused on the auction table.
The auctioneer was wearing a straight black suit and straight, his voice was like the strings that were tightened to the extreme, sharp and penetrating, and it echoed clearly in the quiet auction hall:
"The bronze square Yi of the Western Zhou Dynasty of China, a super craft with a long history from 700 BC, has passed 2,700 BC, and has passed by now! The starting price is three million-" As soon as he finished speaking, the entire auction hall was ignited instantly.
"Five million!"
A white lady wearing emerald earrings gracefully raised the number plate in her hand.
"Seven million!" Immediately afterwards, the translator of a prince in the desert area held a golden lacquer cane and slowly shouted out a quote.
But at this moment. "Ten million." Milo's voice was low and firm, and like a sharp blade, instantly cutting through the quotation sounds one after another, one wave higher and one wave higher.
In an instant, the entire auction hall seemed to have been pressed and fell into a brief silence.
Everyone turned around and saw Milo in front of a group of people. He was smiling at everyone.
Immediately afterwards, the velvet seats made a rustling sound, which was the sound of people moving their bodies unconsciously due to shock.
Then someone shouted loudly, "Mr. Blackburn, it's Mr. Blackburn!"
The scene suddenly became lively, and almost everyone stood up, wanting to see the living American wealth legend up close.
Of course no one dared to bid to compete with him anymore, and he bought this auction item.
Then it was given away as a gift to Milo Blackburn, a small gift to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of that country.
In addition, one-third of the proceeds from the auction held by Christie's and convened by Paladin Media will be donated.
The donation targets are out-of-school children in the third country.
Li Zhaoxin knew that under the operation of Paladin Media.
As one of the third world countries, China's Ministry of Education will receive one-third of them.
Along with the lost and regained bronze ware, it is of memorable significance.
These are the gifts given to the Chinese people by Milo Blackburn, a good friend of the Chinese people, in this very commemorative time in 1999.
This is also the reason why Li Zhaoxin came here to thank him in person.
Even a few months ago, Li Zhaoxin represented his country and sent serious protests and condemnations to the United States.
But that is the relationship between countries, so you can still play together.
Not to mention that the relationship between the two countries is actually very tense now, but they cannot really fight.
At this time, the Blackburn family, who had a good relationship with China, stood up.
This is a very important signal for the whole world.
As for whether Milo's actions will cause dislike the hawks in the United States.
Please, even if they don't like it, would they dare to come to Mr. Blackburn and say something?
When Morgan, Rockefeller, and even Mellon were tempted to go to that country.
Why don’t you say it?
What's more, the United States is so huge, but Milo has a good relationship with that country.
In addition, let’s take a step back.
What is the United States? The United States is a Hydra, and each snake's head has its own will.
The heads of Hydra do not like a certain country. On the other hand, there will definitely be several other snake heads, so they will be close to this country.
Don’t treat the United States as a complete body, it is a country that does not even have the main nation.
The only thing this country has is national identity, that is, Americans.
And what is American? Those who want to pursue the American dream are Americans.
As for saying that he would appear at the auction tonight.
Book the lot and gave it to the country of China.
For Milo, it was just a small episode.
The next day, August 17, 1999.
The outskirts of New York are already outside New Jersey.
But it is located in the 14th hole area of Kimp National Golf Club, which is only a dozen kilometers away from downtown New York.
The cicadas in August exploded between the pine needles, and Jacob Lohill's white gloves made a leather rubbing sound as he grabbed the titanium club.
He looked at the slightly raised green three hundred yards away, and the Adam's apple rolled under the scarf: "Don't Mr. Blackburn think this sand pit is wonderful? Just like the Wall Street Journal's financial version - it seems flat, but in fact there are bones buried in every fold."
Milo Blackburn's Polo shirt has dark sweat stains on the back, and custom sneakers have rolled over a cluster of wild alfalfa.
He took off his sunglasses, and his blue pupils reflected the jagged shadows at the edge of the sand pit: "If this is the case, then I think at least one-third of these bones are related to the respected Rohill family, right?"
Jacob Loshire smiled and regarded Milo's slightly mocking words as a compliment.
Because it is indeed the case.
The Loshire family was the first family to use finance and influence the whole world.
At their peak, they were even called the Sixth Empire.
Even once controlled the power of Europe.
Unfortunately, the two wars broke their backbone.
It also made the United States rise completely.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小
Since then, the Losheir family began to decline, and the bottom valley seemed to be far away.
They have not yet completed the fall...
But just like Morgan wants the real JP Morgan to appear, Rockefeller hopes Standard Oil can be reborn.
Which Lohil doesn't want his family to restore to the original Sixth Empire?
Bang!
The sound of hitting a ball startled a group of starlings. The small white ball drew a parabola in the air and fell on the edge of the sand pit on the right side of the green, stirring up a golden dust fog.
Jacob wiped the titanium alloy head with a silk handkerchief, and his knuckles turned white due to force: "Mr. Blackburn, I'm here to ask for help."
Milo's club stagnates in mid-air for half a second, and the club surface forms an angle of 37 degrees with the sunlight.
After the hit, the turf splashed, and the ball rolled towards the hole against the edge of the sand pit, stopping three inches from the opening.
"Why do you say that? What can I help you?"
"I think you understand. Mr. Blackburn, to be honest, the enemies of Losier and Nosir did not get much benefit this time. If there were no accidents, you would still be the one who gets the most..."
"Hahaha...I'm just, I'm just kind to others." Milo laughed, "I'm not very enemies with people. So I can end up when it's really right."
As he spoke, Milo bent down to pick up the ball, and the cross pendant exposed on the collar was stained with grass clippings. "And your family had created its current reputation a hundred years ago. So a hundred years later, as long as your family does not die, the former enemy will not stop taking revenge."
Jacob's glove buckle suddenly collapsed, and the metal buckle bounced on the grass and fell into the sand pit.
He pulled off his other glove and stuffed it into his pants pocket, revealing the faded family tattoo at the base of his little finger—the seal of King Solomon stabbed with Prussian blue pigment.
Each member of the Loshire family, the kind of member who is recognized.
They will tattoo similar heralds on them.
King Solomon, son of King David, is the third monarch of the United Kingdom of the ancient Squid.
The status in the minds of squid people is roughly equivalent to that of the ancestral dragon of China.
"We can give up our 17% stake in the Wall Street Journal."
Jacob's silk glasses are covered in sweat," and three board seats in Chase Manhattan Bank."
Very outrageous? Yes, it's a bit outrageous indeed.
To this day, the Losheill family still holds some shares in Chase Bank of Manhattan, including the board seats of several important companies under the Morgan family.
In fact, even earlier, the control of these companies was all under the Losheil family.
At that time, Morgan was just Lohill's agent in the United States.
Rockefeller is just the Rockefeller family, and was supported in the United States to fight against the agent of the Vanderbilt family, the richest man in the United States at that time.
Ironically, the last two agents expelled their boss.
They became their masters in the New World.
Milo used a push rod to push the dandelions next to the green, and the yellow petals stuck to the sweet spot of the club.
The buzzing of a lawn mower came from afar, and the warm wind mixed with the rosin smell raised his forehead: "I want the Associated Social Security to cross-holding agreement."
The sound of putting rod hitting is as crisp as the closing bell of the stock exchange, "and your position in Condé Nast Group."
Jacob's cigar cuts paused in the air, and scraps of wrappers fell on custom oxford shoes.
The moment he bit his Havana eggplant hat, his pupils contracted with the bitterness touching the tip of his tongue:
"You should know what the surname Loshire means. "The lighter trembled, "The Battle of Waterloo in 1815..."
"In 1815, you made 20 million pounds with a carrier pigeon. But in 700 BC, about 2,600 years ago. When the ancestors of the Chinese made the most advanced technology in the world at that time, our ancestors might not have come out in the woods. "
"Don't mention history, Mr. Loshire. The glory of the past does not represent the achievements of the present, and it cannot replace the fate of the future!"
Jacob cooperated and smiled, but was thinking in his heart.
When the Chinese were making bronze ware, your ancestors of Anza people might have not really come out of the forest.
But we are not!
We were...well, it seemed like we were serving the Egyptians at that time.
But no matter what, it is better than the descendants of you Germanic barbarians!
Milo suddenly pointed to the woods on the east side with a putt, and three frightened dark green embroidered birds were rising, "Just like the frightened birds now-if my club is replaced with a hunting rifle, they won't even have tomorrow. Mr. Loshire, if you can't land safely this time. The long-standing Loshire family, I don't know if there will be tomorrow."
I don't know if it's too hot or what, sweat oozing from the back of Jacob's neck, and dark blue marks were fainted on the collar of Armani's shirt.
He swinged the ball with a sound of breaking the wind, but the ball deviated from the route and hit the sand pit guardrail.
"Trade."
"But besides these, I have a small request."
"Haha..." Milo laughed and said, "Make a bold request, any request is OK. As long as you can afford the price, Mr. Losheil. Just like what you pay now, I can avoid following the actions of Morgan and Rockefeller. As long as the price is right, I can even deal with Morgan and Rockefeller with you!"
Only the devil can afford the price you, the devil, want!
Jacob Loshire thought to himself that others say that Loshire is a financial devil.
But he now feels that this hateful American is more like a financial devil than them.
In the shameless aspect, Jacob admitted that the other party was not inferior to the Losheir family at all.
Eat the benefits while eating the benefits of Morgan and Rockefeller, and now you can eat the benefits of Rockheer.
Like Americans in the early stages of World War I and World War II. "It's really just a small request." Jacob Losheil didn't want to bargain with this guy anymore. "I hope tomorrow, you will ensure that the TV stations and newspapers under Paladin Media will do us a little favor."
"What's the fun?"
Milo pulled out the glass bottle of Evian from the ice bucket, and the water droplets slid down the bottle onto the Bermuda shorts.
He stared at the rising bubbles in the bottle at the sun: "I still said the same thing, the price is right, everything is easy to say."
The moment the mouth of the bottle contacts the lips, Jacob Losheil's voice came, "We are in the European bank, and today we are preparing to appear in the banks to strengthen the confidence of the people. At that time, I hope..."
