Chapter 132: Astor's new lion king

At the end of A.O Smith's journey, Li Zitao left the matter to the think tank to handle, as for the management of the factory.
According to his instructions, the think tank sent a team of 10 people to settle in. Under Li Zitao's suggestion, these people will select qualified candidates for training from the existing middle management.
As for the shareholders' meeting, those small roles can't be turned over. These days are Jonathan's big moves, drawing all eyes away from Li Zitao.
Since receiving Li Zitao's 150 million support, Jonathan rushed back to New York overnight.
In the past two days, Manhattan has been in an undercurrent, and the situation is changing. The battle for power of the Astor family has also become fierce.
First, Vincent spoke out, pointing to the family foundation's violation of principles, publicly supporting an illegitimate child who had never been recognized, and provoking the infighting of the Astor family.
Immediately after Vincent filed a lawsuit in the intermediate court, demanding the dismissal of the foundation management and full takeover of family assets.
Vincent then accused his stepmother of wanting to embezzle Astor's property and have an affair with an actor on Broadway.
All kinds of gossip news and gossip news are as lively as the teahouse by the flyover.
Jonathan was quiet, and did not appear in front of any reporters, as if the accusation of the nominal brother seemed to be fully accepted.
Only in the dark, the Astor family's industry carried out a series of equity changes.
Regarding the equity of Waldorf Astoria and St. Regis, in addition to the direct control of Vincent, the rest fell into the hands of Jonathan.
Jonathan’s agent frequently contacted Vincent’s people and expressed his willingness to purchase other properties in New York at a high price.
In order for Vincent to make up his mind, Jonathan started layout as early as half a year ago.
Consulo Vanderbilt, the Duchess of Marlborough, is a legendary woman.
The most famous one-million-dollar baby at the end of the 19th century, the muse goddess in the artist's mind, the much-watched Princess of America.
Her wedding was a sensation throughout the United States. On the wedding day, all the people in Manhattan went to the St. Thomas Church to observe the ceremony.
Everyone wants to see for themselves the union of the Princess of America and the Duke of Country Y.
The 15-meter-long tail wedding dress is inlaid with a crown of 1091 diamonds, a dowry of up to 2.5 million US dollars, luxurious wealth and expensive husband.
It can be said that at that moment, Coswello was the darling of God in people's eyes.
If you read "Downton Manor" and read her story again, you will find that she is the prototype of the countess.
It's just that reality is not like making a TV series. Her marriage ended in divorce, and she also married her second husband.
A French pilot currently lives in Country F. Constable will continue to focus on the charity of women and children.
It was just that with the tension in Europe, Constello deliberately moved to the United States.
And Jonathan's man named'Isan' turned into Constable's agent in front of Vincent.
"Ms. Conslowe wants to sell the railway stocks she holds in order to maintain her charity for women and children." Yisang said in a humble manner.
Vincent was tempted. The railway stock owned by the Vanderbilt family was the most valuable transportation line of the urban artery.
The other party presented the stock-related documents one after another, and Vincent and Ms.'Consvero' personally spoke by phone.
After confirming that all of this is true, Vincent couldn't sit still. Every day he was considering the possibility of this matter and began to send people to investigate the operation of the New York Central Railway Company.
Vincent was too eager to succeed. As the successor of Astor IV, his life was denied by his family and the public.
Compared to his father, grandfather, he is like a clown in a gorgeous dress.
Now, someone has put the ‘opportunity’ in front of him. As long as Vincent can provide $68 million, he can own 32% of the shares of the Central Railway Company.
Success, success is in sight, but Vincent is still a little hesitant, because the business volume of Rail Transport is in a continuous decline.
At this time, threats from within the family emerged, and they cried out to take away the wealth belonging to all the family, and to let Vincent have nothing.
"Tell them, I agree to the deal." Angrily, angry Vincent made the last major decision of his life.
57 stores, 23 offices, together with 15 apartments, will receive Vincent's huge cash of 70 million dollars.
Now his men are signing documents with the other party next door, he just needs to finally check and ensure that funds flow into his account.
Just when Vincent was proud and ready to take a big fight after acquiring shares.
Wow!
The door of the study was pushed open, Jonathan came in with the management of the family foundation, and his team of lawyers.
"Vincent, you were evicted." Jonathan's cold voice rang in the room.
"What are you talking about? You bastard." Vincent clapped the table angrily and stood up, his anger burning in his chest.
"I said you were evicted. Except for the three apartments in New York, all the assets of the Astor family are in my hands." Jonathan waved indifferently.
The team of lawyers behind opened the suitcase and a pile of documents was placed on the table.
"According to the family trust fund management method, I will now become the helm of the family. After receiving 80% of the voting rights of the management,
Have the right to modify the relevant regulations of the family trust fund, and we have just ended the first amendment. "
"95% of the proceeds from the sale of family assets belong to the trust fund." Hearing Jonathan's unwavering declaration, Vincent fell into his chair in a loss.
"No, this is impossible." Vincent murmured incoherently.
"Vincent, you are the shame of the Astor family. You will be nailed to the shame of the history of the Astor family. I will personally engrave your name on it."
Jonathan clenched his fists and said in a gruff tone that he also waited too long on this day.
"No, stop, stop quickly." As long as no deal was reached, then everything had a chance to be recovered, and Vincent threw his teeth out of the door.
"It's too late, just after the relevant regulations of the trust fund have been revised, all transactions have been completed." Jonathan's words were like a holding spell, which made him stop.
"It's you. It's all planned by you. It's you, a dog mongrel. I'm going to kill you..." Vincent was stupid, and he knew it was a conspiracy at the moment.
Maybe even Constello, and his agent Ethan, are all fake.
"Mr. Vincent." Ethan, who should have waited to meet the next day, appeared in the crowd.
"Damn bastard, how dare you appear in front of me..." Vincent rushed forward, raising his fist like Ethan hit it.
The footsteps jumped briskly, and the thin Ethan dexterously avoided his attack, smiling with a smile: "No, I just chose to stand beside the winner."
"Idiots like you, if you are in an ordinary family, I'm afraid they have already been thrown away." Ethan mercilessly poked Vincent's fragile heart.
"Stop it! My dear brother." Jonathan looked at him indifferently, as if looking at a disgusting maggot.
"Don't let the Astor family be ashamed any longer, and live a stable life here with your property. The glory of the Astor family will be taken back by me personally."
"I don't want to see you appearing in public again. If you obediently obey, your daily expenses will be borne by the trust fund, otherwise..."
Otherwise, as long as he cut off his economic sources, the wealth held by Vincent will continue to shrink. Jonathan only needs to move his finger to eat away everything.
Maintaining the manor, servants, luxurious life, the reception required for communication, and the arrangement of the horses and horses when traveling, all require large amounts of money.
To maintain his present life, the only option for him is to obey obediently.
In the estate of the Astor family, he lives quietly, otherwise, Jonathan, who is in power, does not mind driving him out.
"3.5 million US dollars will be remitted to your account, use this money to maintain your decent life!" Jonathan left the last sentence and turned away without turning back.
The crowd behind him quietly left ~EbookFREE.me~ Soon, the study room became only Vincent again, the lonely figure looked a little bleak, and his era was over.
"Everyone, from today, the Astor family will be led by me, and the future belongs to you and me." The luxurious family central restaurant, Jonathan is like a lion king who has just ascended the throne, showing his majesty and authority.
"Cheers." The crowd cheered and raised their glasses, and the scene was instantly lively.
Only Jonathan, who was the master, sat quietly in the chair and watched with cold eyes, "I only know that it is time to clean up the parasites that are attached to the tree and greedily swallowed."
"Jonathan, I heard you succeeded." As he planned how to throw these family parasites, a soft voice came from behind.
"Madam." Jonathan stood up and bowed his head to pay tribute. The person who came was the widow of Astor IV and the stepmother who found him back.
"Call me Madeleine, respected host, congratulations on your victory." Madeleine took the wine from the waiter and smiled with a deep smile.
"Thank you, Madeleine." Jonathan knew the purpose of her coming and wanted to get the promised reward.
Two high-end apartments in the center of Manhattan also have cash checks worth 2 million.
"I have already prepared the gift, Ethan, and take the lady to get her present." Jonathan said with a smile.
"Thank you, you are really a generous gentleman, much stronger than your waste brother." Madeleine blinked inexplicably and twisted her waist away.
"Oh shit, this is different from what we said..." Madeleine's sharp voice came in the corridor.
"What a slut!" With a sneer, Jonathan turned his attention to the field. Everything today is just beginning.
