Chapter 1879 You Are Afraid of Being Overwhelmed
The three of them sat at the dining table eating without anything happening, and the two sisters still maintained the state of "guess who I am".
Li Zitao also enjoyed it, guessing for a while that the one on the left is his younger sister, so give him a bite.
Guess for a while that the one on the right is my sister, give me a kiss.
tsk tsk...
The double happy time was interrupted by a hasty knock on the door.
"Jonathan!"
Li Zitao stepped forward to hug and said with a smile, "You should be in the Far East now."
"Just got off the plane, 35 minutes." Jonathan lifted his cuff buttons, revealing his Patek Philippe minute repeater series.
"You don't want to have a party as soon as you come back?" Of course Li Zitao was joking, he deliberately came to him at this time, he must have a serious business.
"We'll talk about the party later...won't you introduce me to two beautiful ladies?" Jonathan looked at the twins standing in front of the dining table with strange eyes.
When it comes to playing, Charlie is really a professional, two identical twin sisters, this kind of happiness is exciting just thinking about it!
"Jonathan, while I'm in Hollywood... by the way, I've got a new name for myself, Bruce, what do you think?"
oh?
Is this the play of the prince in distress, or is he role-playing?
No matter what it is, as a friend, Jonathan will not expose him, thinking: find a chance, should I have the same happiness once.
Charlie, still Charlie, always learned something new from him.
"Very good, Bruce!" Jonathan gave a cooperative thumbs up and smiled winkingly.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jonathan." The two sisters greeted shyly.
Tong Jiayao, who is standing on the left, looks a bit abrupt.
At this time, Li Zitao was able to distinguish them from each other, but he pretended not to see anything and invited Jonathan to the living room for a talk.
"I'm equally honored. Then, I need to borrow him for a few minutes to talk about work. I hope it won't disturb your interest."
"Won't."
Looking back at the two sisters, Jonathan who came to the living room quietly raised his thumb.
"Don't make trouble, we are just friends, let's talk about business!" Li Zitao's face was serious, like a righteous person.
puff!
Jonathan couldn't hold back, a mouthful of old blood sprayed on his face.
Friends, yes, good friends who have in-depth exchanges and candid meetings.
Seeing his cheap smile, Li Zitao took the initiative to interrupt: "Is there something wrong with the Far East?"
This time, Jonathan went to Pearl on behalf of L.C.A (Lee C. Astor Industries Group) to reach a cooperation with the Far East court.
They want to build a new modern wharf in Mingzhu and introduce first-class management and advanced technology.
"The contract was negotiated very well, but I personally want to make some investments in Mingzhu, but there are some restrictions."
Jonathan shrugged and gave him a helpless look.
"I understand!" Li Zitao understood in seconds.
"What do you want to invest in?"
"Energy, to be precise, is coal."
"???"
dude,
Is there anything you can't think of.
Even if you talk about the financial industry, Li Zitao can think of a way for him.
energy?
It is still an important coal industry, you are afraid that you will be overwhelmed.
The imperial court in the Far East is in a period of vigorous development of large-scale construction, how could it be possible to hand over the vital coal industry to capitalists.
Not to mention him, even if Li Zitao opens his mouth, it will only destroy the tacit understanding reached by the two parties over the years.
"Don't think about energy, but some industries can be put in the Far East. The industry there is just in its infancy, and investment in industries with technology will be very welcome."
"What are you kidding outside? That's the Far East."
Jonathan smiled wryly, "Do you know how much it cost me to build a factory in the Far East to get L.C.A approved this time?"
"Politics is divided into things, but capital is not. Don't the wolves on Wall Street do a lot?" Li Zitao said disdainfully.
In the past, he fought alone, with small arms and legs, and if any big ship came, he would be smashed to pieces, and he could not protect himself.
Now, who dares to talk about the Cold War and ideology in front of themselves.
Say hello with a big mouth!
As soon as Mingzhu was opened, they couldn't wait to get on the pole, and offered all kinds of funds and loans to support it.
However, the imperial court saw through the opponent's purpose at a glance.
If you want to use this to infiltrate the Far East's economy, you're probably thinking of farting!
However, the Fuguo Far East Branch provided an unsecured foreign exchange of 2,000 US dollars, which once again won the favor of the court.
If it wasn't for the purpose of deceiving people and avoiding the criticism of both parties, Li Zitao would have added a zero to the end if the western pen shouted conspiracy theories.
200 million US dollars is not a small amount at any time, but it is really not a big deal for Li Zitao.
In recent years, Mary has already spent hundreds of millions of dollars just on charity.
Lack of money, nonexistent.
Not to mention the more than 3 billion US dollars in the Li family's own bank, the Luxembourg branch of the Los Angeles City Bank.
Just one-tenth of the harvest from the treasury under the Lee Castle in Los Angeles and the ancient temple of Padmanabaswamy is enough to solve most problems.
If it’s not enough, take out another tenth.
"You know their overbearing treaty, you can do it yourself, others can't."
"That's someone else, not me."
As the Li family became stronger, Li Zitao's words became more and more rigid.
Jonathan could feel his change from the inside out, and his wizard friend was no longer low-key and modest.
Although he doesn't like to show his face, his words are full of majesty and cannot be refused.
"Okay, are you coming to the next meeting?" Jonathan actually wanted to say, 'It's time for you to show up, too. '
Since joining the Freemasonry, he has never participated in any abnormal gatherings except for the initiation ceremony, and every time he sent a proxy.
The performance of the foreign secretary named Molly is impressive, but she alone cannot have a direct dialogue with other people.
To do this, Jonathan and Lawrence had to favor her in the meeting.
Once or twice is fine, but if it continues like this, it will naturally provoke dissatisfaction from others.
"I will go this time." The Freemasons' annual meeting is scheduled on Good Friday, and there is still more than a month before this year's regular meeting.
"Great, I think everyone will be happy about it." Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief.
If he keeps not attending the party, it will make Jonathan and Lawrence extremely troubled, and will also become passive when it comes to interests.
Because they not only have to worry about the interests of their own family, but also take into account the interests of the Li family.
In Freemasonry, no one can represent two forces at once.
Even the Rockefeller family can't do it. This kind of overstepping behavior is very rude and consumes the respect and trust of the 'brothers' for the ancient family.
"What about the factory?" Seeing Jonathan get up, Li Zitao asked him again what he thought of the factory.
"Wait a little longer, this matter can be discussed in a meeting, if you can get more support, things will become a lot easier."
"See you on Good Friday."
"Of course, my friend, Bruce!" Smoothing the fine lines on the hem of his clothes with his hands, Jonathan said goodbye to the Tong family sisters gentlemanly, and left with a wry smile.
