America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 431 The Real Wakanda
"Ha ha……"

The main house of the Morgenthau family, in the study on the second floor of the banquet hall.

Facing David Rockefeller's opening statement.

Abel smiled, and he waved his hand lightly, fanning away the second-hand smoke that flew in front of him.

"Mr. Morgan, Rockefeller, are you serious?"

David Rockefeller and John Chris Morgan didn't answer, but looked at him seriously.

This silence is undoubtedly expressing their attitude.

"I understand."

Abel restrained his smile: "Since it's serious. Then I want to know, gentlemen, what do you plan to exchange?"

Abel kicked the ball back to the two hometowns.

“So it was stipulated at that time that the Federal Reserve Bank of New York had 50% of the voting power of the Fed.”

"Mr. Rockefeller, I think you should understand the reason why our federation exists better than I do. It can exist because everyone can make money happily in it. But the problem is... now you can make money happily , we can’t. We put more effort, we take less.”

After Abel finished speaking, John Chris and David, two old men, interacted for the first time.

Before John Chris Morgan could answer, Abel withdrew his smile and looked at the two old guys calmly and seriously.

"The other thing I would say is that the Dallas Fed's voting power in the Federal Reserve is what it was when it was born, but it's not what it is in the 21st century."

The core figure of this California consortium once raised a similar topic at an internal shareholder meeting of the Federal Reserve, just like Abel today.

If the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas are really going to challenge now.

No matter how low it is, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is estimated to still rank first.

It can really affect the current power composition of the Federal Reserve.

"Do you understand the consequences? Can you bear it?"

Is a true member of the "Deep State" of the United States.

This is also the reason why the reaction of the two old guys is so great.

He only knew so clearly.

This is also the reason why these two families have been able to prosper in the United States for a long time. This is the foundation.

A Dallas Fed, not terrible.

Seizing the gap in his speech, David Rockefeller took a deep breath on his cigar and said while exhaling the smoke:

Because it's important.

They can influence many "small tribes", but they are just the leaders of these "tribes".

This critical 1% can often play a decisive role.

John Chris Morgan was still smiling, only not as brightly as before.

The point was when Slade Wilson was young, about thirty years ago.

Abel shrugged, "Mr. Rockefeller, you heard me right. I can also say it again, that is... I want some power from the Federal Reserve Board."

"What if I say, I want the Fed?" he said.

Ordinary people in the outside world only know some approximate shareholders, but they don't know anything about their internal details.

What's more, Texas is developing so fast now, and a large number of states in New York State have begun to decline.

"That depends on what you want, Mr. Smith."

In addition, Slade Wilson was not very firm at the time, and was "persuaded" afterwards.

Hearing his answer, Abel was not surprised.

Rockefeller and Morgan were among the founding families of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and they own the largest share of the reserve bank.

If the Federal Reserve is half of the world's central bank, then the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is half of the US central bank.

These people are the real masters of this country.

"It's already 2002. Now the New York Federal Reserve Bank, does it still hold 50% of the assets in the United States? No, so if it continues to hold 50% of the voting rights, do the two gentlemen think this is reasonable? "

Fortunately, Abel is not an ordinary person, and now he is also one of the top members of this country.

The young Texans looked directly at the staring eyes of the two veteran chaebol cores.

Tonight, they originally wanted to talk to Abel about taking a stake in Smith Financial Group.

"I know two of them are major shareholders of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York."

John Chris Morgan was too blocked to respond immediately.

That's why Abel was surprised to say such words at this time.

"We all know that in 1913, the Federal Government and Congress passed the Federal Reserve Act. According to the regulations, the United States was divided into 12 Federal Reserve Districts, and each Reserve District established a Federal Reserve Bank. The 12 Federal Reserve Banks , which constitutes the Federal Reserve Board of the United States."

John Chris and David naturally understood.

Not just Abel.

Facing John Chris at this moment, he had some perfunctory words.

Families like Morgan and Rockefeller, why do they have such a high status in the United States.

Thirty years later, California's economy is developing rapidly, and it has become the real largest state in the United States, both in terms of population and economy.

As a result, the contact had just begun, and their bait hadn't been thrown out yet.

Nor did David and John Cleese.

"As for the challenge, the war or something...haha—"

David Rockefeller even put out his cigar directly on the ash cap, staring at Abel with his cloudy and old eyes.

"What I want to say is that the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at that time occupied 50% of the assets of the United States, so it was reasonable to have a corresponding 50% of the voting rights. But that was in 1913."

At this moment, John Chris Morgan spoke.

"Well, taking advantage of this time, the two gentlemen invited me to have a private talk. Then I also have something, and I want to talk to you two."

"The Dallas Fed in Texas, New Mexico and Louisiana feel that the distribution of Fed voting power since 1913 has been irrationally out of date."

"what?"

For a moment, the atmosphere in the study of the Morgenthau family became extremely oppressive.

Among the 12 Federal Reserve Banks, the Dallas Fed is very average.

"Slade Wilson really said that to you?"

Abel now actually proposes to reform the voting rights of the shareholders of the Federal Reserve.

Than Abel wants a stake in the Fed.

What David and John Chris are afraid of is these two rebellious boys, in case they really talk about something.

This "bomb" thrown by Abel.

The whole of Texas does not have much say in this institution.

The United States is actually an African tribal country that is packaged and armed with modern civilization, technology, and is composed of more than 700 large and small families, as well as ordinary people or elites in the areas they influence.

The problem is that the difference between 50% and 49% is indeed only 1%, but in many cases, when voting is required.

Among the 12 Federal Reserve banks, the highest status is the New York Fed, which has the most voting rights.

Even in the past, Dezhou was beaten up a lot, and then found out that it can benefit from this big family, so it didn't jump so much later.

This is the status of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which brings them benefits.

Therefore, the major shareholders of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York naturally have the greatest influence on this institution.

"It made sense at the time, and there was no objection from anyone."

"Same thing about the Fed, but this time I don't want a stake in the institution."

Now the economy sits on the sidelines and refuses to accept the second child, New York State, that's too normal.

The smile that froze on his face just now bloomed again, and his self-cultivation ability was very good.

Abel smiled and said, "I understand what you mean, Mr. Morgan. But I think you should also understand what I mean."

A San Francisco Fed, a bit of a hassle.

David Rockefeller also nodded:
"That's right, that's what I mean too."

Abel looked directly into his old eyes, "Mr. Wilson and I are good friends, and many people know about it. Oh, and I have a very good relationship with Miss Keira Wilson. And Mr. John Stumpf. These Things, let alone you guys, I don’t know how many times it has been reported in the newspapers.”

"If you do this, then you are actively provoking war. In the face of war, the response will only be war."

"Please tell me, Mr. Smith." The slightly younger John Chris said softly.

If it's just this part, the two will be angry, but they can also understand.

He laughed again: "Didn't we fight once in 1861?"

This is true of Rockefeller and Morgan, and the same is true of Shrub and Smith.

It's just that at that time, California was not as strong as it is now, and the California consortium was not as strong as it is now.

Adding up the two thorns, even the big brother, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, has a high probability of being unable to suppress it.

It was he who relied on his talent to climb to a high position step by step, after becoming the main core of the Texas consortium.

But its actual organizational nature is a private banking system.

Not even Morgan and Rockefeller combined.

Its equity holders and internal details are also one of the country's top secrets.

The Federal Reserve, the full name of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States, is the central banking system of the United States.

After the merger with the Texas consortium.

"Ha ha--"

They looked at each other, wondering if what Abel said was true.

After covering many layers of skins, the current Abel can barely be regarded as a member behind the Federal Reserve.

It is also because of the highest status of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

To this question, John Chris Morgan had an immediate response.

Abel smiled and continued speaking.

In intelligence, Abel did have contact with Slade Wilson.

The words that startled the two old guys.

I want to try, can I lure Abel with huge profits, so as to try to extend their tentacles into the financial core of the Texas consortium.

This is actually easy to understand.

What the two of them talked about, only they themselves know.

David Rockefeller smiled, "Did I hear correctly? Mr. Smith, although I am old, I think my hearing is still good. Did I hear wrong just now?"

The point is that every time the Federal Reserve raises or lowers interest rates, or adjusts its monetary policy, or even just makes some remarks, it will have a huge impact on the stability of the world's currencies and economic structure.

The Federal Reserve is destined to be impossible to be controlled by one person, or by one or two families.

Otherwise, even if they compromise, Abel will be able to get the shares of the Federal Reserve, which will be absolutely rare.

The Wilson family is one of the controllers of the California consortium.

Abel stretched his hands and placed them on the armrest of an antique sofa chair from the 18th century French Regency period in the study of the Morgenthau family.

"The rules of almost 100 years ago may also be time for appropriate changes. I talked to Mr. Slade Wilson, and he said that he and his friends felt the same way."

And it may be reduced by more than 1%.

Smith Financial Group, which owns a portion of First National Bank of Dallas.

The problem is after wearing so many layers of skin.

John Chris Morgan's smile also froze.

Because strictly speaking it is.

Even if there is a little affiliation, Abel has no say in this organization.

The composition of the shares of the Federal Reserve is very complicated, and the identity of the shareholders has never been disclosed to the outside world.

Abel knew that the two old guys in front of him, or the two families behind them, were the second major shareholders of this institution.

Compared to David, John Chris laughed almost the whole time:
"Mr. Smith, you are actually one of us now."

Facing the second who may be the master of this country, he is neither humble nor overbearing, talking with eloquence:

Why are Morgan and Rockefeller stronger than other consortiums?
In addition to their background, an important factor is that they are the most vocal part of the Federal Reserve.

To put it bluntly, since the end of World War II.

Slade Wilson also took the initiative to entertain him, and the two talked and laughed happily at the banquet of the California Consortium.

Abel laughed lightly.

"Mr. Smith, you are not a history teacher, and we are not students. What do you want to say?"

The First National Bank of Dallas owns a small portion of the shares of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.

On a face full of age spots, a pair of cloudy eyeballs exuded a serious look.

If the New York Federal Reserve Bank's voting power in this institution is reduced, it is also reducing their voice in the Fed.

The status of the two of them within their consortium can indeed affect the order of power within the entire Federal Reserve.

With the successful binding of petrodollars, this organization has become the de facto central bank of the world.

David was lying on the sofa chair, smoking a cigar and staring at Abel without saying a word.

It's too normal for Anti-Bone Boy to be unconvinced.

If the leader leads everyone to lose money together, no "tribe" will be willing to follow them in the long run.

David Rockefeller was silent, and his complexion became a little pale.

This matter will be over.

Is the director of the world stage.

At the end, Abel landed with a sound, and he was already staring at the ugly John Chris Morgan and David Rockefeller with piercing eyes.

David Rockefeller's cloudy eyes widened.

Unless he can destroy all the families in the United States by himself...

In other words, whoever controls the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is almost equivalent to controlling more than half of the Federal Reserve Bank.

"So..." He looked at David Rockefeller and John Chris Morgan:

At this time, John Chris Morgan, who had been smiling the whole time from the beginning, finally hid the smile on his face.

Morgan and Rockefeller also cannot represent the entire east coast of the United States.

"Texans think this is very unreasonable. In 1913, Texas' GDP accounted for only 2% of the U.S. GDP. But now, Texas accounts for 9.9% of the U.S. GDP. And New York The state is 10.5%…”

To put it bluntly, this institution, or the people behind it.

What they can't tolerate even more is the reform of voting rights that Abel demanded.

"Does your statement represent Texas or even California? You are launching a war!"

Besides Texas... the Lone Star State has always been rebellious.

But that was then.

Abel was silent for a while, and then he spoke surprisingly, which startled the two old guys who had been calm all along.

Abel instead dropped a depth charge on them.

David Rockefeller spoke, his voice became a little hoarse.

These things, the former Abel actually didn't know.

Voting power is very low.

Like the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, it occupies about 50% of the voting rights of the entire Federal Reserve...

Of course, no one or any family can do it at present.

The two even left the crowd for a while and talked secretly for a long time in the sight of the crowd.

Because they are one of the largest shareholders behind this institution.

Because just like Abel, he can't actually represent the whole of Texas.

"You will lead to a stable Federal Reserve, and internal turmoil will begin. And if this institution fails to perform its functions, the entire United States will be affected. If the United States is affected, the whole world will be affected."

Rockefeller and Morgan may be the two most powerful among the more than 700 "tribes".

Even if Abel can really get the shares of this institution, the amount will definitely not be many.

The leader leads everyone to make money together, so everyone naturally listens to the leader.

"Mr. Smith." John Chris Morgan said in a bad tone:

Taking a deep breath, David Rockefeller spoke again:
"Mr. Smith, do you know what will happen if you do this?"

After a long time.

The two old guys also didn't say a word for a long time.

Speaking of this, Abel has already tried to see it.

Slade Wilson is the core figure of the California Wilson family.

Having said that, Abbott paused and looked at the two old guys.

The atmosphere was very bad, and Abel accepted it calmly.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, which is also one of the 12 Federal Reserve Banks of the Federal Reserve, is one of the shareholders of the Federal Reserve.

It is followed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, followed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.

"According to the state of economic development, assets, and residents' savings in the United States at that time. The New York Federal Reserve District is the savings area with the highest asset holdings, accounting for 50% of the United States."

Abel immediately asked: "Mr. Morgan, can you represent the entire east coast? Didn't you bring up the war first?"

Two old guys, this is kicking the ball back to Abel.

What Abel meant was that he wanted some of the shares of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York that they held.

The Federal Reserve's public office is located in Washington, D.C., and is under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

In the study, it was quiet for several minutes.

This is the United States, a modern capital tribal emirate.

This is why it is difficult for outsiders to understand its internal system.

Marvel's Wakanda was imagined and used to show black buddies.

The actual United States is the real Wakanda only by looking at its internal power structure and system.
