Subtitle of this chapter: I am strong if I have no desires, and you are forgiving (Jia) Nailiang!

It’s so strange that “Mo Gen Datong” is actually a sensitive word?! Who can tell Murong why?

……………………………………………………

As a time traveler, "Master Fool" did not need to tell him "The Pope's Crown" that Morgan was a detective novel enthusiast.

Moreover, he did not have a strong desire for control like his father. He prefers a calm life, hunting, going out to sea, and reading detective novels.

So he handed over most of the Morgan consortium's business to his second-in-command Harry Davidson (1868-1922).

This lord is one of the advisers to the Federal Reserve Preparatory Committee and one of the popular candidates for the Republican presidential candidate in 1915...

If he was not involved in that "tragic scandal", he would likely compete with Wilson, who was striving for re-election.

In 1915, a neighbor of Davidson, who was also a husband who was cuckolded by him, shot his wife in the back of the head and then his temple after dinner...

The scandal naturally became a big deal, and Davidson also lost the opportunity. Later, he felt guilty and adopted the couple's two children.

Have you seen it? In the era without Weibo, the husband who was cuckolded can only use this very violent method to take revenge, so everyone should thank the progress of the times.

I don’t know if it was retribution. By 1920, Harry Davidson’s health had problems. He was troubled by headaches and insomnia, and had to go to the countryside to cultivate.

Morgan had to come back to take charge of the position. However, if history has not changed, Thomas Lamont here will soon become the "most successful president in the history of the Morgan consortium."

"Thank you, Dr. Yuan. I like this gift very much." Jack Morgan smiled and said in the very pure "Queen's English".

He was "exiled" to England by his father from 1898 to 1905, so later he and his wife and his children became pro-English people, and almost half of each year was spent in England.

Of course, this does not prevent the Morgan Consortium from lending money to Niu Niu's enemies.

Our Master Yuan then noticed the other party's accent, and immediately flattened his tongue and said, "You're welcome, Mr. Morgan."

Note that the most significant difference between American and British voice is that American voice has tongue sounds, but British voice does not... it is not a slightest!

To give the simplest example, the word FATHER is pronounced "Fat" in the American voice and the English voice is pronounced "Fata".

As long as you remember this, you can switch between American and British voice. For Yuan Yanshu, who is about to go to English, you should start getting used to it now.

"Dr. Yuan, please sit down."

"Mr. Morgan, thank you."

As soon as he sat down, he heard someone ask, "Dr. Yuan, what are you drinking?"

He replied casually: "It's good to whiskey. No ice added to the soda, thank you."

When someone brought the wine, Master Yuan felt a little secretly. NYSE Chairman George Whitney poured wine for himself. How could he have such treatment if he didn't travel through time?!

"Dr. Yuan, do you know the reason for inviting you here today?" Xiao Morgan asked in a straight shot.

Yuan Yanshu was not surprised by his direct method.

According to his understanding, Morgan was following his father. Not only did he follow Xiao Gui and Cao Sui in business, but he even deliberately copied the old Morgan in his behavior and even dressing.

At that time, a newspaper held a prize betting. They published two photos, in which Morgan and his son were lifting their crutches to drive away the reporter, and then asked the readers which photo was the father and which photo was the son.

There is such a "everyone is here to find fault", which shows how similar the father and son are.

One characteristic of old Morgan is that he is straightforward when talking about business and never wastes time.

The most famous example is his acquisition of the "Steel King" Carnegie's industry.

When the president of Carnegie Company reported the asking price of US$480 million to Morgan, he guessed that Morgan would not agree and should have bargained. But to his surprise, he nodded and confirmed the offer without blinking.

This big deal was done!

But our Master Yuan was not in a hurry to answer the questions raised by the "King of Wall Street".

He took a sip of whiskey slowly, and closed his eyes slightly to savor the smell of the wine.

After about ten seconds, he nodded to the other party and said, "Mr. Morgan, of course I know."

Of course he knew that he was standing on a historical fulcrum, a historical fulcrum he created himself!

Archimedes said, give me a fulcrum and I can pry the earth.

Yuan Yanshu said, give me a fulcrum and I can leverage history.

Now, now, at this moment... is a fulcrum that can easily leverage history, and it is easy to change the strength comparison between China and Japan with just a few words.

In fact, this is the so-called "spirit of death".

Yuan Yanshu knew that he could not use this historical fulcrum, but he deliberately created this historical fulcrum.

He made friends with "The Miracle of Wall Street"...

He predicted Harding's victory...

He wrote "Socialism" and those political articles...

He easily earned money through NYPR and Baisaishan...

He became a guest of honor in the "Mahjong Cabinet"...

All of this is for the exchange of this meeting with Morgan!

However, if you die, you will die.

In order to survive, he had to give up this historical fulcrum.

Cyris said it well, no desires will lead to hardship.

Since he gave up this fulcrum, the image he wants to create is not a capable, honest, obedient subordinate, but a capable, honest, and a bit arrogant consultant.

As long as Morgan has a little bit of ambition and vision, he will have a good chance of becoming an off-staff consultant to the Morgan Consortium.

In fact, he also hopes to maintain a close relationship with the Morgan consortium.

To put it bluntly, he wanted to establish a private friendship with Morgan and others, but he did not want to interfere with the actual business of the Morgan consortium.

Why doesn’t Yuan Yanshu want to join the Morgan Consortium?

Because he wanted to be a "bastard master", he could not become a "royal member of the king of gods".

Just imagine that he, a master who holds the banner of humanitarianism and liberalism, was discovered by the public in the end that he was in love with the Wall Street tycoons. This reputation must be terrible.

If this reputation is bad, how could he become a master of neoclassical liberalism?

If someone finds out that he is the same as the Wall Street tycoon, how can he be a close friend and political ally of the FDR?

Without the moral high ground, how could he become an academic idol worshipped by white left-leaning officials of all colors in later generations?

"Dear Mr. Baker mentioned it to me, and I am very grateful for his recommendation." Our Master Yuan turned to look at Mr. Baker II and nodded to show his gratitude to his father.

Then he turned to Morgan and said, "Mr. Morgan, I also thank you very much for giving me a chance to meet here..."

"Gentlemen, I can only say that I am flattered at the opportunity to become a partner of the Morgan Consortium. To be honest, I haven't had a good sleep these days!"

"Hahaha..." These people also chuckled a few times with great relief.

"Mr. Morgan, but..." Yuan Yan stood up and bowed to Morgan little, "Forgive me for being rude, I have to refuse!"

Now, now, now, at this moment... his heart is bleeding.

"Gentlemen, please listen to me tell a story first." Our Master Yuan stood up and said loudly without waiting for everyone present to ask questions.

"In 1840, the Tatar government was forced to sign the Treaty of Nanjing with the British, opening up ports to trade freely."

"At that time, the owners of textile mills in Manchester woke up in their dreams. Because they believed that China has a population of 40 million, and as long as each person in China buys a cotton nightcap every year, it will be enough for all factories in Manchester to produce for decades."

"So, they really transported several ships of nightcaps to China..."

Yuan Yan smiled bitterly and said, "They don't know that we Chinese don't wear hats when sleeping, nor do they need to wear hats."

"I must point this out, gentlemen, that at this current stage of history, the Morgan consortium is the factory owners in Manchester."

"What I want to say is that you have good products, but they are not suitable for today's China!"

Now, now, at this moment... our Master Yuan only has four words in his mind.
