Chapter 72 The Feast of the Predators (First update, please collect)
  What is the most important thing in doing business?
  It's information!
  Intelligence is information, and information is wealth.

A successful businessman must analyze a large amount of information, draw conclusions, and make corresponding judgments accordingly.

"Actually, it's very simple."

While talking to Mickey, he picked up the tall wine glass and took a sip of the red wine in the glass.

Their tables were set with exquisite Italian meals, the most sumptuous meals available in this high-end hotel.

In any world...money often means privilege.

"Actually, I wasn't sure at the beginning. I just heard about you. I should say I heard that Heidi was living with a young Chinese millionaire. She was my idol... Before I left London, I I learned from the exchange that Ngai On Lee acquired North Borneo Company. Your names are the same. This information made me believe that you are the same person. Then on the plane, we met again. At first I didn’t I’m sure it’s just the clothes you’re wearing…”

Mickey shook the glass and smiled.

"The clothes you are wearing are different from the shrunk British wartime clothes, but the new ones from New York. Well, considering your age, I guess you are Heidi's legendary lover, Lee. Is this just speculation?"

"Well, Mickey, Morgan made the right choice by sending you here."

After taking a sip of wine, Li Yian said:

"This wine is much better than what I drank in London."

"Yes, after all, nobles in Italy also need to enjoy life."

Mickey nodded with his wine glass at the people who were dining not far away.

"But that's not important. What's important is what are we doing here now? Am I right?"

Staring at Li Yian in front of him, Mickey had a smile on his face.

"Indeed, then what are you doing here?"

"Of course we are talking about business..."

Mickey was smiling.

"We came here to acquire high-quality assets here. There are many high-quality assets here, such as ports, banks and factories. Now these high-quality assets are seriously undervalued. You see..."

Mickey nodded at a few people not far away with his wine glass, and two of them were on the same plane as them.

"They are just like us. They all come from Wall Street. Wall Street likes to plunder by nature. A destroyed country, or a defeated country, is full of high-quality and severely undervalued assets. After all, the war will end and be destroyed. The country will be rebuilt, and eventually all undervalued assets will return to their original prices, and by then, investors can earn hundreds of times their profits!”

Li Yian nodded noncommittally to Mickey's words, and then said.

"Indeed, this is indeed the best time to earn huge wealth. There is nothing cheaper than assets now. The only problem is, you..."

Turning his eyes on Mickey, Li Yian took a sip of wine and put away the smile on his face.

"What can you get out of this?"

What can I get?
  Suddenly, Mickey felt that the wine no longer tasted good.

"Money? No, the most you can get is a bonus, ten thousand dollars? Or tens of thousands of dollars? Or more, or less?"

Mickey, with a bitter look on his face, shrugged his shoulders and said. “Li, it’s much less than what you said, probably only a few thousand dollars!”

A few thousand dollars is already a lot. Now the monthly salary of an average American worker is only more than a hundred dollars, while a bank agent like Mickey can earn a monthly salary of four to five hundred dollars, or even thousands of dollars. But later The author obviously has nothing to do with Mickey.

"Yes, that's what you get in return, Mikey, my friend."

Taking a sip of wine, Li Yian smiled.

"To Wall Street, your value is just like this. Even if you buy all the banks in Italy, the return will probably only be tens of thousands of dollars. The only question is, are you willing to do this?"

"I……"

Mickey was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said.

"Sir, I'm just an agent, this is my salary... they..."

Turning his gaze to his colleagues, Mickey shrugged helplessly.

"It's almost the same as me!"

This is the fate of a wage earner. He can create millions or even tens of millions of value for his boss, but the rewards he gets are very limited.

However, from Li Yian's words, Mickey saw some possibility, thought about it, and said.

"Sir, maybe we can cooperate with each other. You know, no Italian will sell their bank to you. What they need is the power behind American capital. As for the factories, of course you can also buy some factories. Well, maybe you You can also acquire some real estate, such as high-end hotels and department stores in Rome... But if, in their opinion, you represent Morgan, it will undoubtedly be more convenient for your acquisition, what do you think?"

Mickey's eyes became a little hot, staring at Li Yi'an. In his eyes, this guy was his chance to change his destiny. The big tree he was leaning against, and where was Li? He has money!
  If two people cooperate, they will get unexpected rewards.

Listening to Mickey's analysis, Li Yian laughed and asked.

"What does Morgan need?"

"bank!"

Mickey said directly.

"This war destroyed everything. The wealth accumulated by Europe over hundreds of years was wiped out in this war. This is also the best time for us to enter Europe. If we master finance, we will master a country. Here Banks and enterprises are like cakes on the table, cheap and delicious, but the problem is that not everyone can eat the cheap and delicious cake."

Putting down the wine glass, Mickey looked at the other party expectantly.

"After all, sometimes, just having money doesn't necessarily mean you can have the cake and eat it too!"

Mickey, who is just over forty, is a typical Wall Street speculator. He is very familiar with the rules of the game on Wall Street and has his understanding of everything there. However, he also knows very well that there are too many agents like him on Wall Street. , he may be able to receive some kind of appreciation and achieve a certain position, but that's it.

He needs an opportunity and has been looking for it. Why did he ask to go to Europe? It's because he knows very well that this will be a feast of capital. If he had the opportunity to participate, even if it was just the crumbs on the ground, he would be able to eat a full plate.

After seeing Li Yian on the plane, he had been guessing about the other person's identity. After all, it was very eye-catching for a Chinese to suddenly appear among a group of predators.

After figuring out the identity of the other party, Mickey sees an opportunity to eat the crumbs.

"Now if we cooperate, Li, I believe we can participate in this feast!"
