He also prepared a huge monument for himself as an integral part of this building. It was just an autobiography of his. It was engraved with 100,000 pounds of copper on the gable of the building, which was 30 feet high and 150 feet long. It was full of love letters.

His own descriptions, in high relief, illustrating Vanderbilt's employment with shipping companies and railroads, flank the central statue of his fleet captain, which is a full 12 feet tall and weighs 4

Ton.

Even before its unveiling, the astonished New York Herald commented: "Although it will not be as huge as the Pyramids, nor as magnificent as the Colossus of Rhode Island, it will do it." (Ah. Vanderbilt.)

A unique monument, it also suffered the same fate as the statue in "Osimanders". Today, only the central statue survives and is placed in front of the central railway station.)

Fortunately, it was a normal death. Vanderbilt used a bronze statue to express his arrogance, which was a special case among the rich in the 19th century. In addition to erecting a statue for themselves, most of the rich had their names associated with them.

A collection of great useful things that serve the public and express the vanity of their creators. New York City alone is awash with them: Carnegie Hall, Cooper Union, Rockefeller

Universities, Paley Park and the Whitney Guggenheim Museum abound.

Some people say that if the ancestors are smart, then their descendants are definitely not fools. Just like the people in this room now, most of them are self-made, but they have all made a mistake now, that is, they are too jealous of others.

Well, the descendants of the Vanderbilt family who were contemporary with the Morgan family did not think about this matter. Maybe they are the second or third generation of rich people. Now his words may not be recognized by many people, but most people

What you say to Chu Chu is not the right thing to say. It would be better to get Miss Balin back first.

Mike glanced at this guy with some displeasure. When Li never showed up, this guy was pursuing Miss Balin. As the president, he didn't make it clear to Miss Balin because he had to coordinate here and there. Now you are excited

Well, since you brought it up, I will ask you to do it.

"What Mr. Donte said is very reasonable, but the relationship between our people here and Miss Balin is not very good. You saw what happened just now. I think it's up to you to handle this matter." Mike said with a smile.

He easily carried the ball over. Originally, he thought that Donte would refuse, but unexpectedly, this guy happily agreed. And he left without even a moment's hesitation♀Let Mike follow some of his

The confidants didn't understand. This guy didn't get anything good, so how could he go there happily?

Mike ended the meeting indiscriminately. He could feel that his organization was no longer the same as before. Everything seemed to be falling apart now. First it was the Morgan consortium, and then there was that guy Donte.

, Although Donte didn't express it, he could feel that this guy probably would not come back after he left. Was he going to lose his two assistants?

Cuba, the Energy Group Naval Base, and the internal affairs of the Klan soon reached Li Cong's ears. He frowned. To be honest, he didn't need the Klan to cause too much trouble at this time.

After all, in the entire United States, or in the entire area controlled by the Skull and Bones Society, Li Cong's strength is still very weak. Although he wants to weaken them, he does not want to solve their mysteries like this. The price is too high.

It's too big. If he's useless, what's the use of unlocking his secrets? In the end, it's himself who loses. Thinking of this, Li picked up the phone unconsciously and dialed a number. The person on the other side answered the phone.

It was Miss Balin who had just walked out. Before she got home, she received a call from Li Cong.

"Haha, I really don't know if fate is playing tricks on me. Every time something happens to me, I get a call from you. Mr. Li, are you a little too well-informed? Being so well-informed makes me a little bit confused.

Feeling scared doesn't correspond to you at all." In Miss Balin's mind, maybe the person who accompanied him to the antique store could not connect with the world's number one person. But she knew it so quickly.

The content of a top-secret meeting is estimated to be known only to the Energy Group and the Skull and Bones Society in the world. However, now the Skull and Bones Society does not know about it, and only the Energy Group knows about it.

"Miss Baring, I am just concerned about a friend. Sometimes this kind of concern is not necessarily wrong, just like now. I feel that I can't quit there yet. The power of your Morgan family is not that strong in the entire United States.

It's powerful, so you have to be careful. It's better to have such a sign on top than to bear the wind and rain yourself." Li Cong didn't know what was going on with him, why was he so helpless at the moment?

Now, I have said this out loud. In the past, I would never have warned him, especially to a friend I didn’t know very well.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Li. In fact, this idea has been proposed many times by the upper management of my family. The Ku Klan is no longer the same as before. In the past, they were all people with ideals and wanted to overthrow the skeletons.

They will be oppressive, but now it is completely different from before. Now they have their own wealth and their own power. Although they also want to deal with the Skull and Bones Society, their methods are too aggressive, especially you and us.

After the cooperation, with your financial support, they became even more unscrupulous. They even thought that they could directly intervene in the battle between you and the Skull and Bones Society. This is absolutely not allowed. If we continue to follow them, that is what we do.

The beginning of destruction, our family follows the rules of doing things behind the scenes, we will not do this kind of stupid behavior that comes to the front." Miss Baling was walking on the road making phone calls, and from a distance she looked like a lover.

The expression on the face of the little girl talking on the phone was unremarkable, but what she said was a big thing that could affect the lives of many people.

Li Cong pondered for a moment. It would be easy to understand if it was for this reason. This also solved a mystery in Li Cong's heart. In the past, Li Cong thought that the Kuomintang should be a very hidden party, but he didn't know

What's going on? I have been in contact with them for a while, and I can see that the people inside are very arrogant. At first, I thought President Mike was a nobody, but now it seems that this guy is also a waste, because of a

Women gave up those things of their own and became so irrational that they even wanted to destroy the Great Wall. You really need to be more careful when cooperating with such people. But then I thought about it. I even had a problem with a woman back then.

Compared to others, my child's urge to commit suicide was even more extreme than mine. It's just that I was lucky. Otherwise, I would be a lonely wild ghost now, and I regret it.

"Mr. Li?" After hearing that there was no news here, Miss Balin asked aloud, how could she know that Li Cong would think of something that happened a long time ago. She also wanted to hear it now.

Li Cong's opinion. The important thing is that she needs Li Cong's support, that is, Li Cong's diamond trade.

"I'm sorry, Miss Balin, I thought of some other things. Maybe your approach is right. There are many things in this world and there are many forks in the road. You may avoid failure by taking this one, but you may also lead to failure.

, I will support you, but my cooperation with the Three-D Party must continue. Do you need my help over there?" Li Cong said with a smile. From a rational point of view, the power of the Three-D Party now needs to be strengthened.

They are much bigger than the Morgan family, and he still needs them. But from a perceptual point of view, Li Cong feels that this Miss Balin will bring him more benefits in the future, so it is necessary to help her at this time, as if it is

If you cultivate it in advance, you may not gain much at this time, but it will definitely be huge in the future.

"Thank you Mr. Li. In fact, my family is just like you said. We don't have much ability. We need your diamond trade, but we don't need too much. You just need to provide us with 5 billion in goods per year.

Yes, in return, I can cooperate with all your actions, whether they are within our capabilities or beyond our capabilities. I know that Mr. Li likes to look at the other party's capabilities when doing things. I don't know what we want to achieve.

What are the requirements?" The profits from cooperation with Li Cong are very objective, but if you want to become Li Cong's partner, you must also show your abilities. Everyone knows that there is no waste in Li Cong's account.

"Haha, I may be said to be too unkind by others, right? Miss Lin, in fact, I will cooperate with you even if you are not from the Morgan family. I think the family power is one thing, but there are so many

Why don't I cooperate with their big family? Personal ability is also very important. Of course, with your outstanding personal ability and strong family power, I would be more happy to be a partner of Chenda. Five billion U.S. dollars of goods are not

No problem, I can supply it at any time if you need it. Just give me a certain amount of help when I need your help in the future. By the way, I have also started the cigar industry in Cuba, if necessary.

, I can give you a franchise, although the profit is only 10%, but I think you will make a lot of profits in the end." Li Cong said, Miss Bahrain is very clear about the cigars Li Cong got in Cuba.

Yes, hundreds of billions of RMB have been recorded in the account in just two months. If this continues, it is estimated that it will soon reach hundreds of billions of US dollars. What's the matter with 10%? Then there will be tens of billions of US dollars in a year.

income, the Morgan family will not give up on such a deal.

"But I would like to add that my public partners in the United States are all people under the Skull and Bones Society. Cigars may not be acceptable. If you want to cooperate with me, you must get this contract from the Skull and Bones Society.

Otherwise, they will suppress you in the future." Although Li Cong said that there is no need for testing, it is also necessary to check the abilities of partners in some small aspects. A talented person must show it.

Yes, if you can't show it, it won't be of any use. I'm not running a charity shop here, so there's no need to continue supplying goods.

"Mr. Li can indeed handle things. Just rest assured. I guarantee there will be no problem. In fact, the Klan has many industries in Central and South America that are under the management of our Morgan family. Now we have withdrawn.

If Mr. Li intends to take over, I can help. The total amount is not very large, but it is about 7 billion US dollars. I will not accept payment for this. Mr. Li can just regard it as a meeting gift from me." This woman.

Although she has a good impression of Li Cong, she is still very serious when it comes to business. Just like now, taking other people's things to help her become a good person. Anyone would do such a thing, but she

Li Cong's kindness has reached a point where he can no longer send it out. Li Cong is not someone who takes advantage.

"Haha, I will consider this matter. If there is nothing else, I will hang up first." Miss Balin had nothing to do, so the two of them hung up the phone. Now that she is back at home, she still needs to talk to her family.

Talking about how their path will go in the future, she clearly knows that after she leaves, there will be many forces that will follow her out of that place, just like Donte, their family has always been with the Morgan family.

, so they will also leave. This time it will definitely be a serious blow to the Klan. It is definitely a situation that Mike has not thought of.

But Li Cong was not so relaxed. After confirming the news from Miss Balin, he had to do something. Although the Klan was still useful, it was definitely not very useful. This time he had to let go

The Skull and Bones Society was bleeding once, so Li Cong also quickly contacted Mike.

"Mr. Li, you must also know what's going on here. It doesn't matter. I don't think our cooperation will change without anyone, right?" Mike was still very scared when he asked this question. He was afraid.

Li never said that he was only cooperating with Miss Balin and had nothing to do with the Klan.

"Haha, this is natural. I have seen Mr. Mike's ability very clearly. I am calling you this time for two reasons. One is to give you a reassurance. No matter when our cooperation will be

It won't change. In addition, I want to tell you some news. My people found dozens of nn agents in the coastal areas of Cuba. One survivor said that they were going to prison, but they were robbed by the military in the process.

Kill, maybe this news will be useful to you." Li Cong said nonchalantly. He believed that this news would definitely be useful to the Klan's next step, but Li Cong didn't say it with any good intentions.

He just wants to expand this matter a little bit, and then the Skull and Bones Society won't be able to stop it just because it wants to.

"Haha, is it true? Thank you so much, Mr. Li. I think the cigars you sent are really good. If we can cooperate in this area, I think we will still be able to do well in the future. Mr. Li means

"Really?" Mike said, smoking the top-quality cigars in his hand. The energy group only sent a few boxes, which were not enough for senior executives like them. If they went out to buy them, the price would be too high.

It costs 30,000 U.S. dollars. If you take one a day, it will cost you one million U.S. dollars a month. It’s impossible.

"There is no problem with this matter. I don't have time for this period of time. Let's do it after a while. If you like it, I can leave the eastern and central areas to you. If you have money, everyone will make it. That is my principle." I agreed first and then said.

Li Cong didn't know if this guy could survive this catastrophe. Maybe this was his airdrop check to this guy.
Chapter completed!
