Chapter 288 Everything About Skull and Bones
Li Cong shook hands with every lady very gentlemanly, but it’s hard to say how much of it is true. After Li Cong got to know them with great difficulty, these enthusiastic American girls printed lipsticks for Li Cong one by one. Of course, the last one to leave was erased by Li Cong for his dignity.
"Hehe, dear Li, it seems that you are very popular with our young girls. It seems that they will have a good husband." Mr. Hodge said jokingly, but he was telling the truth, no girl would like to Marrying an old man, at this time, they are more fortunate. People in this kind of family have long understood their future. If Li Cong is an old man, their fate cannot be changed. The women in several big families are used to marry Yes, other than that, it's of no use at all.
Li Cong smiled, and knew that the time for joking should have passed, so he patiently began to listen to Mr. President explain everything about Skull and Bones. Of course, it can only be a very general introduction. If you really need to understand, you still need to ask others. It is always impossible to ask the truth.
According to Li Cong's previous understanding that Skull and Bones is just an organization, it seems that he was very wrong now. He thought that this organization only had money to manipulate the world, but now it is completely different from what he thought.
The Skull and Bones Society was established hundreds of years ago. At the beginning of its establishment, there were five major families, and there are still five major families today. If there is no appearance of Li Cong, this tradition may continue. At that time, the headquarters of the Skull and Bones Society was in Europe. Without the current power, it can only be said to be a relatively large chamber of commerce in a certain city, but the leaders of the Skull and Bones at that time attached great importance to everything other than Europe, thinking that Europe had been divided up by some privileged classes, even if they themselves No matter how shrewd it is, it is impossible to face some powerful classes.
At this time, the colonies came into the eyes of Europeans. With the most advanced weapons in the world at that time, Europeans traveled all over the world. History textbooks always record how many ships of gold Europeans have taken around the world. Silver treasure, but what is not written in the history textbook is that on average, three of the ten ships sailing from Spain or Portugal belong to the Skull and Bones Society, and two of them are connected to the Skull and Bones Society, and can get half of the income of this ship , that is, at that time the Skull and Bones completed their primitive accumulation.
But this is not the most successful place for Skull and Bones. The most successful place for Skull and Bones is to invest in the United States of America, the most powerful country in the world in the future. Importance, that's why it surpassed the Rothschild family, which was originally formed by nobles in Europe, and became the largest organization in the world today.
After the first industrial revolution, the strength of the Skull and Bones has become extraordinary, and it is a little uncomfortable to stay in Europe. After all, there is another big group not far from me. According to the old Chinese saying, it is the side of the couch. Others were snoring, and the Rothschild family launched an attack on the Skull and Bones, crowding out new nobles everywhere, making it difficult for the Skull and Bones to move forward in Europe. Some vagrants came to America, a place where the Skeleton Society will develop vigorously in the future.
In the Americas, the Skull and Bones worked hard to develop their own power, and used the wealth accumulated in the past to buy many needed items from Europe. At that time, the power of Europeans in North America was limited to the coastal areas. To be precise, it was the beginning of the founding of the United States. The thirteen states in the United States are where the Skull and Bones originated in America. After decades of development, they accumulated a certain amount of strength and began to plan for the independence of the United States. Later things were relatively simple. All over the world, the forces of the Skull and Bones Society have also traveled all over the world.
However, there was an episode in the middle that was not very good, because the main members of the Rothschild family were Jews, and the Skull and Bones supported the anti-Semitic Hitler to power, and the result was not well controlled.
It triggered the Second World War. Although the Rothschild family was almost destroyed, its own strength in Europe was also greatly damaged. However, Marshall, an elite talent within the family, finally proposed a Marshall plan to aid Europe. It seized most of the European market and compressed the Rothschild family within an acceptable range.
In the following decades, I am afraid that the only thing that Skull and Bones did not expect was the rise of China, which made China a powerful organization in the world. For this force, it was suppressed at the beginning, including two wars, and even They also used the power in the Soviet Union at that time to fight against China, but in the end it was hard to win China, so they turned into cooperation. After all, China's economic development has also made a huge contribution to the world. There is no need to tear your face. The relationship with Beijing is considered good.
Skull and Bones has its own offices in more than 200 countries and regions around the world, with hundreds of millions of official members, and each official member controls an average of more than a dozen people, which means half of the six billion people in the world Most people are more or less related to Skull and Bones, but they don't know that they are doing things for Skull and Bones. Even among the hundreds of millions of official members, only a few million leaders know who they are doing for.
The Skull and Bones Society divides the world into six regions, each continent counts as one region, and the person in charge of each region forms an administrative council, with only eighteen members, three from each region, of course the Americas region and Europe region The people in the Skull and Bones are naturally a little taller than those in the other areas, and the operation of the Skull and Bones is usually operated by them. Above them is the Golden Council composed of direct members of several major families in the Skull and Bones, consisting of fifteen people. , is also a family of three, but because of Li Cong's joining, it may become eighteen people. Their task is to verify whether the things done by the Administrative Council are true, and to regularly inject fresh blood into the Administrative Council.
Above the Gold Council is Li Cong's circle, the highest level of power of the Skull and Bones composed of six giants, and several people who control most of the world.
Below the administrative council is the person in charge of each country, generally speaking, there are two, they are responsible for all affairs of the Skull and Bones in this country, including political, economic, military and other affairs, and their following are based on each The division of a country's administrative regions divides into different districts.
Mainland China can be said to be an area where Skull and Bones is weak, but you can basically find Skull and Bones people in administrative units above the town of Skull and Bones. It's hard not to dominate the world.
Li Cong can also use these resources by joining the Skull and Bones Association. Although Li Cong owns dozens of satellites launched by Tektronix, which is enough to rival the huge US Space Corps, the advantage in manpower is what he urgently needs.
The income of the Skull and Bones Society in various places can basically achieve a balance of payments. The few giants only need to spend a small part of the money every year as the membership fee for the organization's operation. As Miss Yeke said, each family only has ten dollars a year. It is only a billion dollars, but the money earned by the organization is hundreds or even thousands of times that of a billion dollars every year.
After Li Cong briefly listened to the chairman's introduction, he felt that joining Skull and Bones was the right move, but he also had to contribute his own strength. He regularly handed over one billion US dollars to the organization every year. The partner first cooperates with the organization, and borrowing funds is also a common thing. Li Cong balances it and feels that he is more honored. After all, he has not paid so much for the development of Skull and Bones like these big families. Pick up cheap ones.
