Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2371 The tip of the iceberg

In order to prevent Lin Daoqiu from kicking himself out immediately, Yabs had to tell Lin Daoqiu something that he would not normally mention to others.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu knows that he knows, but it is impossible for him to tell Yabs that he agrees with what he said.

Because the Rothschild consortium has always made a fortune in silence, especially after World War II, the family began to hide their strength.

At this moment, there are only a small number of people who really know the strength of the Rothschild consortium, but Lin Daoqiu obviously will not be among these people, unless someone tells him these secrets.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yabs. If you want me to agree with your remarks, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for a while."

Lin Daoqiu put on a look of disbelief at all. Judging from the expression on his face, Lin Daoqiu even felt that Yabs was simply bragging in front of him.

But Yabs didn't think there was anything inappropriate about Lin Daoqiu's answer. On the contrary, he felt that Lin Daoqiu's reaction was that of a normal person.

After all, if Rothschild's efforts over the years can't even be hidden from Lin Daoqiu, doesn't that mean that they have been wasting their efforts all these years?
Therefore, although Lin Daoqiu's answer was a bit too straightforward, it didn't seem to matter to Yabs.

"Mr. Lin, as a partner, the most important thing is to be honest with each other. I will not deceive you in this matter, and please believe in my sincerity."

Originally, Yabs thought it would not be difficult to negotiate this deal. After all, there was no force more powerful than the Rothschild consortium to intervene in this deal.

But what is different now is that Eliwood and Twain Morgan have met with Lin Daoqiu successively. If it was him, he would probably consider cooperating with the two super consortiums.

"Of course I believe in your sincerity, but Mr. Yabs, I have to be responsible for the future of Reader Times."

Lin Daoqiu was actually holding back a smile in his heart, but there was an extremely serious expression on his face.

Since the Rothschild consortium likes to pretend to be weak, I naturally have to cooperate with their previous efforts, otherwise, wouldn't it be a disappointment for what they have done over the years.

In fact, when Yabus invited Lin Daoqiu to come over, he knew that it would not be an easy task to convince Lin Daoqiu, and he had already made preparations for this.

But from the current point of view, even if such preparations have been made, Yabs is really not sure whether he can persuade Lin Daoqiu.

Unless he spreads the strength of the Rothschild consortium in front of Lin Daoqiu and makes him understand that they are not much inferior to the top ten consortiums in North America, and will even be stronger than many of them.

It's just that such an idea can only be passed in the mind. Judging from Lin Daoqiu's current potential, it is far from allowing him to tell him the secret of the Rothschild consortium.

But people are like this, if there is no other consortium looking at Lin Daoqiu, then Yabs will neither be nervous nor consider doing something to make Lin Daoqiu believe him.

But now in the eyes of everyone, Lin Daoqiu is a golden rooster who can place an order. If he misses this opportunity, Yabs believes that he will regret it in the future.

Even once Lin Daoqiu rises or achieves some dazzling achievements at that time, he will become the target of being attacked in the consortium. This is definitely not the result that Yabs wants to see.

"Mr. Lin, what do you need me to do for you to believe?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at Yabus, then shook his head.

"Mr. Yabs, I'm really sorry, I prefer to cooperate with those two consortiums now."

Lin Daoqiu's answer made Yabs's heart tighten. Although he had expected such a result, it was hard for him not to feel sad when Lin Daoqiu said such words.

Obviously, the strength of their consortium belongs to the outstanding group, but for some reason they have to hide their true strength from the public, so that under such circumstances there is no way to convince others that they have strength.

"Mr. Lin, I know you have a lot of doubts about the strength of our consortium, but if I can prove something, would you consider cooperating with us?"

It seemed that Yabs wanted to cooperate with him very much. In fact, Lin Daoqiu had never thought about rejecting the other party, but Yabs had to come up with something to prove his ability.

"Of course, but..."

When Lin Daoqiu said this, he suddenly stopped and did not continue. It seemed that he did not believe that Yabs could produce such a proof.

But at this moment, Yabs suddenly smiled slightly.

"I heard that Mr. Lin encountered some troubles in Xiangjiang not long ago?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't know what the troubles Yabs mentioned were referring to, but if it was a recent matter, it should be about himself and Fei Peng.

Could it be that Yabs is going to help him deal with Fat Peng?But is it possible?You must know that Fei Peng was sent to Xiangjiang by England, and with the ability of the Rothschild consortium, he could actually interfere with England's policies?This is too powerful, right?

Lin Daoqiu thinks too much about the ability of the Rothschild consortium. Even if the Rothschild consortium is very powerful, it is impossible for them to influence England's policy towards Xiangjiang on such issues.

"Some elders in our consortium know Chief Peng. If necessary, I can ask them to come forward to help ease the relationship between you and Chief Peng."

According to the information collected by Yabs, the relationship between Lin Daoqiu and Fei Peng has not been very good recently, and even Fei Peng is planning to use some means to deal with Lin Daoqiu.

If the Rothschild consortium came forward, Yabs believed that Fei Peng would not target Lin Daoqiu like this for their sake.

"Mr. Yabs, thank you for your kindness, but you can't help Mr. Peng and me, because it is absolutely impossible for him to listen to anyone's persuasion."

"Mr. Lin, I think you think things are too complicated. Sometimes things in this world are actually very simple. As long as someone makes peace, many problems will be solved."

In Yabs' view, this matter is not difficult for him at all, as long as the elders in the consortium call Fei Peng, then this matter can be resolved smoothly, and he will naturally be able to get this favor.

"It seems that Mr. Yabs is very confident about this. In this case, you might as well give it a try. If you can persuade Chief Peng not to target me again, then I am willing to accept you as a shareholder of Reader Times."

"Then we'll make a deal, Mr. Lin."

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's answer, Jacobs beamed with joy. He didn't expect the matter to be solved so easily.
