"Little Rockefeller did not help you stand together, it is already very ethical." Evelyn glanced at the slave owner and praised another man. "If you are the situation he is facing, it is estimated that he is already at Rockefeller Manor. Is that right? Tu Mohengfei persuaded, oh, yes, went with Edith Rockefeller. "

Sheffield was speechless and froze for a long time before saying, "Did you think about my feelings when you praised others? Even if I do, you can't say it."

"Since you decide to stay out of the business, you have to think about if Rockefeller joined, but like Morgan, together with the Northern Securities Company was defeated, then the situation of the United Company." Evelyn asked with her lips pursed, "Is there a plan? It seems that United has several industries that are also trust-worthy, such as United Automotive. "

"I did not use illegal means to prevent competitors from appearing. Trust is not only up to the standard because of its high market share, unless you think that I deliberately lowered car prices, it is also a disruption of market order. If the president and the federal government also think so, then it is considered I ’m not afraid of the joint company ’s lawsuit with the federal government alone. ”Sheffield raised Erlang ’s legs.“ Did the root cause of the prosecution of United Motors be because the price was set low? Even our citizens are not smart, But this reason will not be accepted. "

"What about the three industries of sugar, canned food and beef? Is the farming and animal husbandry association!" Evelyn continued to ask, "How do these industries handle it?"

"The Farming and Animal Husbandry Association is actually strictly a cartel, a pricing alliance, but it is not tied together. When the grandmother got the association, it was against the tolls of the railway giants. Its operating mechanism is not for It ’s very good to make money. After making money, it is often used directly to buy land. It was originally in Texas, and it has started to enter the Midwestern states. It is now Anne who is responsible for this matter. I am not very specific. To understanding."

"As for the three industries of sugar, canned food and beef?" Sheffield pondered, "Canned food and beef are both derivatives of the Farming and Animal Husbandry Association. As for sugar, mainly Cuba and Hawaii, the federal government should consider it if it is difficult. To be more comprehensive, do n’t you want Cuba and Hawaii to stabilize? I do n’t think it ’s going to be difficult for sugar. "

In fact, if it is enough to be a monopolistic shareholding standard, the Hollywood film industry should be counted. Of course, the publishing industry and the five major publishers in the United States are also counted. However, these are industries where the impact cannot be assessed and are not easily noticed.

As for other areas, the joint venture's business may have competitors, and some opponents are still unable to handle it, such as sponsoring Duke University's tobacco king, James Duke. The rivals of supermarket chains are several large families in Boston, which all reflect the full competition under the market rules.

To say the only thing to worry about now, although it was a little strange just after the election, Sheffield worried that Roosevelt in this term of office would fight the trust and accumulate enough public opinion. The next term will probably be re-elected, even if not re-elected, will also transfer their prestige to the Republicans, which is bad.

The reason why the election did not lose the Democratic Party is not shameful, because Roosevelt was involved in the energy, otherwise the first term will make the trust business ugly.

"Washed!" Alice Roosevelt came out of the room, nodded at Evelyn in good faith, and sat on the edge of Sheffield. After the initial unfitness, she had already felt the happiness of the woman. Anyway, here No one knows himself, so he does not exclude intimacy with Sheffield.

From this matter, we can see the difference between the elite team and the Wuhe people. The entire Evelyn manor, with the servants and bodyguards up and down, are all employees of the United Company, and there is no flaw at all. It can be called the real world of Chumen.

"Okay, we'll go around later." Sheffield wasn't going to stay in Los Angeles for too long, and cheating could not last long.

The two went to the Hollywood Theatre to watch a movie. The movie content was the slave master's plagiarism, Groundhog Day, similar to the time-cycle movie.

"I haven't seen this movie before. It's so interesting." Alice Roosevelt saw this movie for the first time and was so excited that she didn't know what to say. Many scenes in the movie were richer than her imagination.

"It's a sample before it's released!" Stretching Alice Roosevelt's hands, Sheffield said proudly, "I don't know the time of the show, but this will not delay my Alice."

"David Griffith's work? He's a master!" Alice Roosevelt covered her mouth, seeming to be very moved by the slave owner's intentions, but how could this praise sound a bit wrong.

It seems that recently my own woman likes to praise other men! Sheffield would like to say that he is the real master of David Griffiths. The shooting skills of this era are so backward that only slave owners who have experience in watching movies can give pointers.

With the guidance of his strongest king, I believe that David Griffith is truly famous. When a country is born, it should bring a greater sensation than in history.

"I believe we can break the box office record of that denim." Alice Roosevelt also extended his finger and made a shooting action, with a voice in his mouth, poof. Even as the president's daughter, she is still only twenty years old, and with her own activity, the air is full of fresh breath.

Compared with the sour smell of love on the west coast, the east coast is completely another atmosphere. It is not too much to describe it with the wind and the wind. Since the White House said that it would do something with the North Securities Company, the controller of the United States railway system, stock Just before the plunge, countless investors watched their wealth shrink and cursed Roosevelt who had just been re-elected.

The stock price of Northern Securities Co. plunged, just like the period when William McKinley was assassinated, but it was only a microcosm of the entire environment. The secret union has begun. Whether the president is really talking about it, or is he really prepared to move All parties are using their personal connections to make inquiries.

The Morgans have set out on their way to Washington, and other Wall Street tycoons immediately started activities, using lobbying, trading, lure and other means to compete with the government. Even Rockefeller Jr. hosted some Republican conservative bigwigs at Rockefeller Estate and asked if there was any room for recovery.

The Rockefeller family meant to stand with Morgan, which made some Republicans feel stunned. But immediately said that he can talk to the president as a bridge of communication.

Even the First Bank in Boston is watching this movement and speculating on the next progress.

"Based on our understanding of Morgan, he will certainly not admit defeat without saying a word, and I don't know if it is serious over there at the White House!" Lowell looked at his friend and said, "Adams, you have the most say. By the way, there have been two generations of presidents in your family, and they know very well the political things. "

"A president who has just been re-elected will not flinch. If he flinches, he will not propose it." Adams took out a Boston Globe Times and put it in front of several people. "It reads the president's view of Northern Securities. , What does this mean? President Roosevelt is fighting for public opinion and telling citizens the idea of ​​things, hoping to get support? And some political newspapers, the president ’s approval rate is rising, how long has it been before you ca n’t imagine Just a while ago, Roosevelt won not easily. "

"Well, it seems that Morganda has no purpose. This time going to the White House may not be as arrogant as last time," Lowell said teasingly. "It's none of our business, just look at it. Now. "

Morgan, who arrived in Washington, came to the White House for the second time during Roosevelt ’s term, unlike the last time. The friendly atmosphere on both sides has disappeared completely, more like a tit-for-tat negotiation.

Morgan represents Wall Street, the embodiment of the economic power of the United States, and the White House is the center of the political power of the United States.

Roosevelt came out together with Attorney General Knox, and sat in front of Morgan, his face was plain, and there was no trace of tenderness.

"Dear Mr. President, Mr. Attorney General." Morgan said a bit bluntly, "If we are wrong, you can send someone to talk to my people, they can get things settled. Not just like it is now. Without saying hello, the lawsuit was opened directly. Why did n’t you notify me? This attitude makes many people who have contributed to the economy of the United States very worried and suspected of abuse of public power. ”

"Mr. Morgan, the matter of the Northern Securities Company is not the same as the matter in the coal field. Settled? We are not trying to settle this matter. So we can't do it as you said." Roosevelt pushed his glasses, under the lens 'S eyes did not mean to give in at all.

"It's not to be settled, but to stop the behavior of the Northern Securities Company." Attorney General Knox added, "The unfair competition of the Northern Securities Company, resulting in de facto monopoly, must be stopped."

Morgan stood up suddenly, looked at the two in front of him, and said in a plain but tough tone, "It seems that we have nothing to talk about, and staying here is a waste of time."

He already knew that the two were not ready to talk. Since such a contest was inevitable, Morgan, who figured it out, was not wasting time, striding out of the White House, and marking the second white house trip that was unhappy. A full stop.
