1855 United States Tycoon
Chapter 43
Chapter 43: The Playboy’s Pursuit
Scrooge also heard about things like Gardner spends more than half of his day fishing, riding horses, and frequenting various clubs. However, Scrooge did not show any dissatisfaction, at least not as dissatisfied as Rockefeller. In Rockefeller’s view, this is a typical non-doing business, constantly wasting one’s own time and talent.
“The guy Gardner’s personal abilities are quite good, maybe he can’t keep up with your pervert, but he should be no worse than me, he must be better than Clark. He has a clear mind and quick response, if he is willing to put his mind on the company’s business , The help to the company will be much greater than it is now. But he, he has to give himself half a day off every day to do those meaningless and junk things. This is simply a chronic suicide!” Rockefeller shook his head and said. Scrooge said, looking distressed.
“John, do you remember the time we ate barbecue at Vodrano?” Scrooge smiled.
“Remember.” Rockefeller replied without thinking. “How could I forget that?”
“Then do you remember Mr. Warren’s special seasoning?”
“That damn old thing! Thanks to the perverted Warren who can eat it!” Rockefeller thought of this, and felt that strange smell came out of his mouth immediately, so he picked up the water on the table and poured it out. Took two.
Not long ago, Scrooge and Rockefeller went to New York to run business. By the way, I also went to visit Volendrano. At that time, Mr. Warren just came back from hunting and brought back a wild boar, who was instructing the servants to make roasted tenderloin.
“Ah, John, and Scrooge. You came here by a coincidence. My God, didn’t you come here after smelling the fragrance?”
“Ah cut! Ah cut!” A gust of wind blew the smell of chili powder into Rockefeller’s nose. Rockefeller sneezed violently, and tears were almost streaming out.
“You’re also called flavor? It’s so spicy, how can you eat it!” Rockefeller said.
“You ignorant hillbilly! This is the Indian chili that my friend brought from faraway India. Don’t look like it smells hot, but when it tastes, it makes you feel like you’re in heaven. But the cowards are all. I don’t dare to eat it.” Warren Delano bragged triumphantly, while looking at Rockefeller and Scrooge slantingly, as if I just looked down on you cowards.
At this time, the chef brought a few skewers of roasted tenderloin to the table. Warren Delano picked up a bunch, took a bite, then closed his eyes while chewing, and his face suddenly turned red, like drinking two or three bottles of Red Star Erguotou. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, “Ah, it’s like entering heaven! How about a bunch?”
Scrooge hurriedly waved his hand and sold his cuteness as a young man: “My mother said, children can’t eat chili.”
Others don’t know what Indian chili is, but Scrooge knew exactly what it was. That thing is also called Indian ghost pepper, which is one of the hottest peppers in the world. According to the standards of later generations, generally speaking, the hottest spice seasoning has a spiciness of only 2500 skevel, while the spiciness of this Indian ghost pepper can be as high as one million skevel. Once, as a representative of the Northern Company, Scrooge in his previous life went to India’s neighboring Bangladesh. At that time, the owner once gave each of them a small jar of marinated things. Scrooge had tasted it, um, that taste, he will never forget it in his life. Seeing that Warren Delano could actually eat this food, Scrooge really admired it.
I don’t know how powerful Rockefeller is unwilling to show weakness, so he picked up a skewer of barbecue and delivered it to his mouth…
“It didn’t feel at all at first, and then suddenly there was a’boom’, as if it was directly hit by at least a 24-pound cannon on the battlefield. The whole head and even the whole body were exploded and turned into pieces. I didn’t feel anything anymore, even my thoughts didn’t even exist, and after a long time, my soul returned to my body—until now, my mouth is still on fire—water! Give me water! !” Rockefeller, who barely regained his ability to speak after rinsing his mouth with almost two tons of water, described the taste of the pepper in this way.
“Why are you mentioning this?” Rockefeller asked.
“That kind of Indian chili, Warren really regards it as delicious. But do you think it is delicious?”
“I’m not a pervert, how could it be…”
“So, other people’s paradise may be The Underworld for you, and vice versa. You think Mr. Gardner is wasting his life, but maybe in his opinion, this is enjoying life.” Scrooge Say it unhurriedly.
“How is this… Forget it, I won’t talk about it with you. Will you tolerate own employees to “enjoy life” like this?” Rockefeller immediately changed his perspective.
“It depends on the situation. If I pay him a salary for making 100 parts a day, but he only makes 90, then even if he is in the factory all day, I have to let him go or cut him off. But if he finishes all the work in the first half day, um, what is his Heavenly Stems in the second half, what’s up to me? As far as I know, Mr. Gardner also finished in half a day. Normally, A job that an ordinary person can accomplish in a day, so what else can you complain about?”
“But he can do better…”
“Well, look, we went back again.” Scrooge smiled, “In fact, let’s think about it. When Mr. Clark said that he would introduce a new joint venture to the company, what do you expect from him?”
“Well, if you can come up with money, let us have money to enter the new Realm, don’t be too conservative, and don’t be too bad in terms of ability.” Rockefeller said.
“Then you see, why does Mr. Gardner fail to meet your requirements? Besides, if he values the company’s business so seriously—well, do you think there is an enhanced version of Mr. Clark in the company, or he It’s a joy to wear a pair of pants with Mr. Clark for everything.”
“If he does, he will not be an enhanced version of Clark, but a weakened version of Scrooge.”
“If he is a person like me, then he will be full of control over everything in the company. You think you would like such a guy… Don’t tell me anything, I basically don’t care about Clark Rockefeller’s business, and You also put your main energy on this company, and basically don’t care about the McDonald’s Infantry Weapons Company, do you?”
“I focus on the McDonald Infantry Weapons Company, and I will not compete with you for control. Because I ask myself in these areas, I am not as capable as you. You take the lead and get more meat.” Rockefeller said.
“But if I put my main energy into Clark Rockefeller to compete with you for the baton, what do you think?” Scrooge asked.
“I’m not necessarily opposed to it, as long as you can prove that you can make money like arms in the food business.” Rockefeller said with a grin.
“It’s strange if you believe it! Your guy’s desire to control is not as strong as usual.” Scrooge said in his heart. But he also saw that Rockefeller had much less opinion on Gardner now.
“I just can’t understand this guy’s posture of taking company affairs as a sideline, especially when I am so busy every day, I am angry when I see the idle guy. In fact, this guy is like this, there is nothing too bad. “Rockefeller said again.
“I understand, you just envy and hate.” Scrooge smiled.
But Scrooge knew that Mr. Gardner was not a real idle playboy. For this joint venture who was also introduced by Clark in the original history, he also left a fortune in history. He should be the first partner in history to be kicked out of the company by Rockefeller. And it was also the only joint venture who was willingly kicked out of the company by Rockefeller. Rockefeller saw through that this guy’s ambition was not in running a business at all, but in politics, so he desperately encouraged him to go into politics. He expressed his willingness to buy his shares at a high price so that he could have money to run elections or something. So Gardner really sold his shares and withdrew. Later, this Mr. Gardner became the mayor of Cleveland and was later elected a member of Congress, but Scrooge could not remember whether he was a senator or a member of the House of Representatives.
“Many old Whig party members have joined the Republican Party. Gardner, you are also an old party member. Are you interested in joining our Republican Party?” a tall man riding a horse asked Gardner.
“You’re talking about the Republican Party that Mr. Lincoln is organizing. I noticed this new party.” Gardner loosened the horse’s reins and let the own horse walk slowly on the grass at will.
“I think this party has a bright future,” said the tall man. “The members of the Republican Party are determined abolitionists. In this way, the mainstream forces that originally belonged to the Whig Party will unite under this banner. At the same time. Mr. Lincoln is another politician who knows proper measures, is good at coordinating, and at the same time has a clear stance and firm will. The Democratic Party can win this election solely by the split of the Whig Party, and once the Whig Party, those who are firm The people who oppose slavery are all united. Even with these people alone, we will definitely be able to win in four years.”
“How does Mr. Lincoln view the conflict with the South?” Gardner asked.
“Mr. Lincoln believes that slavery in the South cannot continue anyway, and that the entire United States cannot be sacrificed for the opposition of the South to accommodate them. However, Mr. Lincoln also emphasized that the contradiction between the South and the North should be resolved through negotiation, and should not be resolved. Use other means.” The man replied.
“Ah, this one is very interesting. As you may know, I recently bought a stake in a food company. In addition, my personal expenses have always been large, so financially, I can provide very limited help to the Republican Party. However, I recently met a very interesting guy, um, have you heard of the kid boss of McDonald’s Infantry Weapons Company? He might also be interested in these Republican ideas…”
