This is a fascinating gold mine with a huge market.
How could someone like Meng Shaoyuan be let go so easily?
But it is not easy to get the Baker family to agree.
It is true that Meng Shaoyuan saved the lives of the Bakers.
But that was only a rescue.
Any "friendship" is based on material basis.
The other party can express their life-saving grace, but it does not mean that they will accommodate you without any bottom line just because you saved their family.
This kind of plot of "no repayment for life-saving kindness, but a promise of life" can only appear in chivalry.
This is America.
This is a group of Americans.
American politicians!
The most realistic and ruthless group of people!
Judith Carlot thought for a while: "Sir, I am very interested in your proposal, but I must tell you that although my husband is the chief audit officer, he is very strict in the audit of the casino. of.
This is not decided by my husband alone, but also by the chairman of the review committee. I will try my best to help, but I have no way of knowing whether I can succeed, at least until you leave the United States. I don't think there will be an answer. "
Of course Meng Shaoyuan knew this would be the result, so he gave a number:
"Ten percent."
"What's the meaning?"
Judith didn't react for a moment.
"In my entertainment venues, I will give 10 percent of the shares for distribution."
Meng Shaoyuan said unhurriedly:
"The Baker family owns seven percent, and Mrs. Carlott owns three percent. I will be responsible for all investments, and I will bear all losses.
You can hold this share for a long time until the day of profit comes. If you don't have the patience, I can also recycle it in cash. "
This is the United States in the 1940s, and official corruption is everywhere and shocking.
Even in the future, the United States has always pursued a policy of legalizing corruption among officials.
There is no such thing as anti-corruption in the United States, because the corruption of many officials is legal.
For example, the governor can open his own company. As for the company's operations, it only needs to comply with commercial laws.
There is another thing in American official circles called political donations. People can collect other people's money as a weight for their promotion. This behavior is completely legal.
A toilet seat costs $10,000. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the United States.
Ten percent.
This cannot but make the people of the Baker family feel excited.
The cost of building a hotel and casino and running it smoothly was $2 million.
Ten percent, that's two hundred thousand dollars.
What is the concept of two hundred thousand dollars?
This can be exchanged for 177721.42 grams of gold!
If you carry 177 kilograms of gold on the street, you will definitely turn heads!
Two hundred thousand dollars has allowed Ferguson Baker to solve all his campaign financing problems.
With the support of this capital, Ferguson is confident enough to defeat other opponents!
Therefore, when Meng Shaoyuan made this suggestion, there was a rare silence in the Baker family.
Finally, Judith said with a slightly difficult and questioning tone: "Sir, do you really have that much money?"
"This is the United States, right?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I am in Chongqing and can do whatever I want, but what about in the United States?"
He said no more.
But everyone understood the meaning of his words.
If he cannot fulfill his promise, then the Baker family can let his casino operate or close it anytime and anywhere.
A very obvious reason.
No one has trouble with money.
Judith and his father exchanged glances: "Sir, you saved my brother. You are the most distinguished guest of the Baker family and our best friend, so I will try my best to convince my husband.
However, building such a large-scale entertainment facility is not an easy task. Can you stay in the United States forever? "
"Mrs. Carlot, I will keep my American agent." Meng Shaoyuan said easily: "He can completely represent me, and he will unconditionally implement all the promises I make.
Mr. Ferguson Baker, I heard you are preparing to run for State Representative and I would be happy to make another campaign donation to you. See, my identity is somewhat sensitive, so you don't have to release my name at all. "
Ferguson was a cautious man: "So, where did this campaign money come from?"
"New York."
Meng Shaoyuan smiled even brighter: "A respected gentleman from New York. He has a high reputation and a good reputation. He is a trustworthy person."
Ferguson laughed too.
This Chinese man has arranged everything.
"And you, Senator Pullman Baker." Meng Shaoyuan immediately said to the head of the family: "You are a gentleman with noble qualities, and I will not use dirty money to corrupt you.
I have heard that your wife, the beautiful Mrs. Antonia Baker, owns a charitable foundation and I would love to be involved in its running.
Ah, Mrs. Baker, I heard that some of your family's businesses in Italy were devastated and there were some financial problems, but that doesn't matter.
Look, I will also run some other businesses in the United States, and for some businesses, I think we can cooperate with charitable funds. I'm not bribing you, I'm just giving the charity money to keep it running. We have to make this world a better place. "
The world has become a better place!
Pullman and Antonia thought the young man was extremely cute.
Antonia smiled: "On behalf of the charity fund and all those who receive charity funds, I would like to express my gratitude to you, dear Mr. Meng."
Full of benevolence, righteousness and morality.
Full of male thieves and female prostitutes.
This is the magic of money.
"I'm in America now with almost nothing."
Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "However, from Washington to New York, from Las Vegas to Chicago, a huge empire will definitely rise. This is an empire built with dollars and gold!
I will not do anything illegal, I will abide by the laws of the United States, and I will cooperate with powerful people. The sum of power and money equals invincibility.
I need strong allies, I need someone to protect my rightful property from infringement, and you, the Baker family, I would love to build a lasting friendship with. "
He has already extended an olive branch!
Pullman Baker clenched his fists hard:
“A strong America will definitely appear, a prosperous Baker family will definitely appear, and your money empire will definitely be born.
The Baker family will maintain this precious friendship and I am sure it will last forever! "
