"Boss, earlier than expected." Seeing Morgan coming out of the White House, his assistants hurried to greet him.
"Since people are not ready to talk, staying is a waste of time, and my time is also very precious." Morgan took the coat handed over by his assistant and said on crutches, "The person who told us, prepare the lawyer team immediately, I want the whole country The best lawyer, a person who knows all the loopholes in the law, informs Rockefeller Manor, and I will visit soon. "
Many businessmen pay attention to the concept of time, and Morgan is no exception. Since it has gone away, he does not want to stop at this place in Washington. When he waits for the train and the car, he chooses to leave by car and the road is already booked. At the next station, he returned to New York by train.
"This group of people is greed. The US steel company and the Carnegie Steel Company are side by side. We all think that they have not seen it, but they have always ignored the goodwill of the federal government. Where we help them, they think it is reasonable and disagree. The place thinks that we are deliberately looking for trouble, should the country serve them? "
Morgan's departure was silent, neither Roosevelt nor Knox came out to bid farewell. After learning that Morgan had left, Roosevelt also said such words to Knox.
"Actually, they are like this. They make money by relying on their own ability. They lose money because the country hasn't made it. Like you said, people are selfish." Knox sighed, knowing that Roosevelt was right. He said, "The decision has been made, we have to think about where we are going, and we must first clarify our position."
Wall Street bankers awaiting Morgan ’s news, as well as the two railway giants Hartmann and Hill, soon learned of the news and understood that the White House was determined to overthrow Northern Securities.
"Does this really dare to do this? Can no one stop him?" Hartman cursed extremely badly. "The economy and politics have been peaceful all along. This president uses political power to interfere in the economy. If the future president Learn from him, where do we still have a day of birthday? "
The news came back faster than Morgan ’s return, and now the entire stakeholders already know that a confrontation is inevitable, and Morgan ’s return shows that it cannot be a fluke. The stakeholders here have already started to take action. Of course, in the end, how to act and through what means depends on the meaning of Morgan.
Morgan has not returned to New York. A White House spokesperson has disclosed the meaning of Roosevelt to the outside world through a form of external speech, and said that the president will soon deliver a national speech on the alleged monopoly of Northern Securities.
At the time of Roosevelt's national speech, Morgan had just returned to New York. In this national speech, Roosevelt's unfair competition with Northern Securities Company, except for the part of the old tune. The rest uses data as a substitute, indicating that the pricing of freight charges charged by the railway system has caused huge obstacles to the travel of small and medium-sized farmers and ordinary citizens, and it is not conducive to economic development, but has a significant negative effect.
The broad class of citizens has long been dissatisfied with the arrogance of the railway system, and he must solve this problem as president. This is the contribution to national development.
"Compared with the large assets of the Northern Securities Company, the money the lawyers need is no longer a problem." Among the Rockefeller Estates, Morgan, Hill, Hartman and other large shareholders of the Northern Securities Company came together to visit the old Rockefeller.
Although the old Rockefeller came forward, he made an observant gesture and said, "Now I am in charge of John's business matters. I just manage the charity foundation and the medical industry. Development, these things are very beneficial to the United States. "
Morgan said this casually. Once the medical industry becomes the leader, it is almost another standard oil company. Walking on two legs is not new. For Morgan, the banking industry is naturally the most important, as is the insurance industry and electricity. Everyone is now in the development of cross-industry, although each has its own foundation, who would be too much to make money?
"If Mr. Morgan asked us about Rockefeller's opinion and supported or not supported this issue, we certainly support it. The President should not intervene in economic matters, which may cause abuse of public power." Rockefeller Jr. has already considered This question directly stated, "The Rockefeller family will give the help Mr. Morgan needs at the appropriate time, and will never take a stand on this matter. This is our attitude."
Hearing Rockefeller ’s position, both Hartman and Hill were happy, and Morgan was looking at the sitting old Rockefeller. The latter nodded solemnly, indicating that this was what he meant.
"Then showdown!" Morgan regained his arrogance, "I want to let me admit defeat, no way!"
"Hmm!" Sheffield shivered twice, hurriedly put on her pants, and Evelyn sorted out the same clothes, making it look like nothing happened, complaining, "It's secretly in your own home, only you can make it This issue."
"Isn't it a bad environment now? I can't help it. When I'm sure I can make Alice love me deeply, it will be fine then." Sheffield said with a smile, and it was another pledge to make Evelyn happy. .
In the past few days, Alice Roosevelt has always rejected the slave owner ’s deepening feelings on the grounds that it was unsafe. Sheffield wanted to get Union Bank to quickly send some female employees to the boss to face-to-face assessment to see if they could It's a big job.
In the end, there was no choice but to solve the physiological problems first in this Chumen world, risking the flaws.
Alice Roosevelt has revealed the idea of wanting to go back. This is how Sheffield might agree. After all, the election just failed and she was in a low mood. She couldn't let her go until her mood improved.
It happened that Houston had arrived, and the submarine had made a preliminary sea trial to take the president's daughter to the south. But before leaving, Sheffield felt that first of all she needed to make Evelyn happy.
"When Alice returns to the White House, I'll contact you again, and you come again." Sheffield held Evelyn's hand, and the shamelessness was written on her face.
"I'm not going, you are a beast." Evelyn gave the slave owner a blank look, and she said in disgust, "I can't let you take advantage of nothing."
Knowing that Alice Roosevelt was a woman with a strong curiosity, Sheffield used the submarine trial to make Alice Roosevelt go back for a period of time, and took out the soft and hard foam to lick the dog. Sheffield finally achieved his goal and made up for the election. The days of failure and low mood will not end so soon.
"Knox, have people already arrived in Washington? It's good to see you!" Prosecutor Douglas nodded while holding the phone. "Long before the president wanted to start his hands on the Northern Securities Company, the state had been prosecuted and the investigation was also conducted. It has been going on, and of course I have been under a lot of pressure. "
For the Northern Securities Company, Minnesota's progressive movement has brought the Northern Securities Company to the Federal District Court in Sao Paulo, the state before the US federal government.
"Attorney General Douglas, the evidence you collected earlier is really very important. I didn't expect you and the president to think about going together. Now Morgan is liaising, but my position with the president will never change." Knox expressed his firm support: "If your prosecution under Minnesota law fails, you will give me any evidence that North Securities violated federal law, and I will sue it personally."
"In this way, we will prosecute first, but Knox, this lawsuit will almost certainly get bigger and bigger. Our prosecution here can only be said to be the beginning." Douglas prosecutor said, "If you win, you can say, lose. After that, the North Securities Company will certainly not be convinced, and will continue to sue in the higher court. You have to be prepared. "
"I understand these big companies very well." Knox said with a smile, he was a company lawyer and knew the weaknesses of the big companies. "The Ministry of Justice will also investigate the North Securities Company here and let you The prosecutor brought it back, it is our exchange of information, increase the evidence in each other's hands. "
For Knox, it ’s better to be able to investigate at the same time as the local state court. It was simply dozing someone to send a pillow, he immediately summoned the people of the Ministry of Justice to record the investigation sent to the Ministry of Justice in Minnesota.
At the same time, in New York, a team of well-known lawyers from the United States has been formed and will represent the Northern Securities Company and the federal government in a legal contest.
"Any abuse of public power that harms companies will eventually be frustrated." The New York Times uses such a title to celebrate the emergence of such a large lineup of lawyers, for Morgan and the Rockefeller family and Wall Street bankers behind it. , Railway giants cheer.
The New York Times uses such a headline to make news, and it is already obvious who leans toward. Many bankers on Wall Street have pointed out that Morgan is playing against the country in his own name. No matter whether the final result is a victory or a failure, he is worthy of the model of the country. This act of adhering to the truth and not fearing power is worth learning by everyone.
"Go ahead, Morgan, the royal kingdom is here to fight!" The slave master carrying the newspaper danced, and Alice Roosevelt pushed the door into full of doubts. "What did you say just now?"
"It's lamenting Morgan's power! This is a pinnacle." Sheffield put away the ugly faces on both sides of the fire, with a worried expression on her face.
