The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 33

Among them, Robles took 2 million U.S. dollars and some other stocks worth over 1 million awarded by Situ Nan, which add up to 3 million, and there are also shares in the upcoming Robes Securities Company!

This team was also the predecessor of Robes founded the securities company belonging to him and Situ Nan.

In fact, the value of those stocks is far more than the current price, so Robles laughed out of sight, money makes ghosts sway, and now Stuart says that the earth is square, Robles can't say it.

After this speculation, Situ Nan tasted the sweetness, so he set up a speculative fund called Hanniper Fund.

Inspired by the film that Situ Nan saw in his previous life, the cunning, wise, calm, and sleek doctor in the play Hanbury.

All the stocks valued by Stuart's holdings of almost 100 million U.S. dollars were put in the Hanniper Fund. Later, after the Robes Securities Company was organized, the Hannibal Fund was merged into the newly formed securities company.

And Robles is the head of the new company.With a $100 million fund, why doesn't Robes feel agitated?

He was moved by Situ Nan's trust.Although Robles is usually pretentious, he can master huge investments at such a young age, and no one believes it.

After communicating with Situ Nan, Robles knew that Situ Nan was planning to hold these stocks for a long time, and he didn't need to make any transactions until the time was right.

Well, I am a caregiver!After Robes got excited, he immediately adjusted his emotions.

Stuart left the stock market to Robes, who was in charge of the Hanniper Fund. He returned to Los Angeles in the west with Mary and his son and He Wenxiu.

Situ Nan did not take a train, but took a boat.The short stay in Houston was mainly to invest part of the profits of this speculative activity in Occidental Petroleum, and also to return the bank loan.

At the same time, the National Bank of Houston mentioned in the previous article was acquired by Situ Nan not long ago. It is mainly used to lend to private oil prospectors (commonly known as Wildcats). Therefore, the western oil industry has successfully mastered more oilfield reserves. .

After investing heavily, Occidental Petroleum's development has accelerated. Newly discovered oil fields have been developed, new pipelines have to be laid, new refineries have to be built, and there are wharves and tankers dedicated to oil transportation.

The newly opened gas stations are like nodes on a map grid, taking root and sprouting like seeds, piercing into the land of the western and southern parts of the United States, and eventually covering these places.

By the end of World War I in 1918, Occidental Petroleum had become the most powerful oil company in Texas, and its Los Angeles branch was second only to California Standard Oil.

Hengda almost fainted happily by this timely fund. This Situ Nan gave himself a huge surprise every once in a while, and ordinary people with a little bit of nerves couldn't stand it.

Not only did he know that Situ Nan had so much money, he would transfer a sum of money from Eastern New York to the account of Occidental Petroleum every once in a while.

Without this steady stream of funds, it would be impossible for Occidental to expand in the west and south in the shortest possible time.

Although Hengda and their shares in Occidental Petroleum were diluted little by little by Stuart's huge capital, the company's booming development has made Hengda not account for other things.

There is nothing more attractive than to create a great business by hand to make Hengda, who has already escaped poverty.And doesn't he also benefit from it?

Hengda, which has received a lot of financial support, not only plans to exploit the Yates oil field alone, but also builds a new refinery plant in Dallas.

Ambitious, yes, like wild weeds, but also as infectious as viruses. Occidental Petroleum executives are ambitious and ready to do a big job and build their own kingdom in the booming oil industry.

After this round of financing and share expansion, Situ Nan’s shares in Occidental Petroleum will naturally increase. Although he was originally the largest shareholder of Occidental Petroleum, after this incident, there is no possibility that he will be able to shake his position. Neither can God.

Although the shares of other shareholders of the company are diluted, the total value of their shares has increased because the company has grown stronger, a visible monopoly.

Just like countless American businessmen hate Rockefeller, they applaud the federal government's disintegration of Rockefeller's trust, but they all want to become Rockefeller.

Hengda and the others, as Situ Nan said, have their own pipeline, their own refinery, and their own wharf. After the gas station, Occidental Petroleum no longer fears any opponents.

Although there is still a gap between the influence of the old oil giants, but not enough to hurt the enemy, self-protection is enough.

In Dallas, in Houston, in Los Angeles, in Salamento... in large and medium cities in the west, the construction of pipelines, refineries, and gas stations has suddenly accelerated. Occidental Petroleum will be known to more and more Americans. Even foreign companies are no exception.

It's just a little bit careless that everyone was fascinated by the company's expansion momentum, a little blindly optimistic, so many projects were launched at once, and Occidental Petroleum's funds were poured out like water every day, but these projects were at least three to five months. It takes up to three to five years to bring benefits, so the seemingly strong funds are suddenly diluted.

It didn't take long for Situ Nan to regret it, because after launching a large number of projects, Occidental Petroleum's desire for capital has exceeded his monthly income from the stock market.

In order to maintain the progress of the project, Occidental Petroleum had to raise funds, borrow from banks, and solicit local wealthy owners in the west to buy shares, etc. After a series of combinations, it was finally a surprise.

A few years later, when Occidental Petroleum was able to compete with Standard Petroleum, Situ Nan’s shares had returned to normal levels. First, it was a little more than half at the end of World War I, then fell to 40%, and finally to 30%. , But it has been decades later.

Situ Nan has not predicted the awkward situation of Occidental Petroleum in the next two years. After returning from New York, although he repeatedly warned him not to be arrogant and complacent, the excitement in his heart could not be suppressed. Well, there was a feeling of floating.

After a short stay from Houston, Situ Nan continued to take a boat through the Panama Canal north to Los Angeles, where he had been away for almost two years.

Well, this is an inland river that is not on the map of the United States but is the United States. It is a symbol of American strength in the Americas. If you want to crown one doctrine, add three words in front: Solomon.

Because of the Panama Canal, the U.S. fleet is 15,000 kilometers short from the Atlantic to the Pacific without having to detour through South America.

This is self-evident for the United States to maintain its geographic superiority in two oceans and one continent.

On the boat back, Situ Nan carefully calculated his current assets, and he couldn't tell the specific figures, only knew a lot.

Now he has two funds in his hands, the Soros Fund and the Hannibal Fund.

The Soros Fund has the most resources. The largest oil company in Texas, Occidental Petroleum, is the holding company of Texas Oil Development Company under the name of Soros Fund. In addition, Soros Fund also controls the largest Texas oil company. Two oil fields.If it is exchanged for currency, it would certainly be worth 800 million U.S. dollars, but it is impossible to develop it in 30 to 50 years.

The Hannibal Fund was established after Stuart’s successful speculation in the New York Stock Market, and currently holds approximately $100 million in stocks and other securities.

At the same time, with the support of the big money master Situ Nan, the ambitious Robles also established a speculative bank named after him, Robles Securities, and he began his legendary career on Wall Street.

However, he couldn't be fat with one bite, and he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. After Situ warned Robles a few words, he didn't care about it. He still likes to invest in business, but Robles' determination is worthy of encouragement and support.

As long as there is no major problem, let him toss it!

Situ Nan still can't do dual-purpose tasks. He doesn't doubt about employing people. It's better to give it to professionals, even though he himself has great potential in this area.(Cheating, can there be no potential?)

In addition, Situ Nan also owns a meat company in Los Angeles that produces rations and canned food for the military.The market value is about two to three million dollars.

There is also zippo. The current market value is less than one million, but the potential for development is known by the name. Its value cannot be explained by the current figures.

There is also an agricultural company that manages a large number of pasture farms. Although these farms are located in the oil plant area, it is good to have a lot of undeveloped land for growing crops.

There is also the Houston Land Company, which is worth more than ten million.

Well, the success of Houston Land has a certain demonstrative effect, so it was copied by Situ Nan to California.

There is also a steel factory in Los Angeles, a mortar factory under construction, and a trivial western medicine factory.These three companies are very small, and they add up to less than 2 million. This is the focus of Situ Nan's return to invest. For this reason, Situ Nan has prepared a large amount of US dollars.

Counting and counting, the big head is still with the oil company. Except for the money from this speculation, other industries add up to less than 20 million.

Situ Nan thought a little greedy.But also, Situ Nan relied on his foresight and almost cheated to obtain astronomical oil fields. He started his business by oil speculation. In just two or three years, he frantically earned hundreds of millions of dollars. Net worth.(Even billions and tens of billions of dollars worth of wealth, but it may not be able to develop these oil resources until Situ Nan's death.)

It sounds a bit big, but without any small achievements, being a rebirth or a traveler is really too nonsense. Maybe the Time and Space Administration is so angry that they will send more people to catch him back.

If you only count money, it seems that he is not inferior to the super-rich, but his money is just a pile of banknotes. Before there is a strong enough industry, his influence is incomparable to those big family consortia, and at best he is a nouveau riche. That's it.Nobles need three generations to develop, status, reputation, fame, and influence also need time to accumulate.

In the past, I didn’t know why many rebirths or travellers had to change history or something. There was no way. In different time and space, they easily achieved achievements that were impossible in the original time and space. After success, people naturally feel that they are bullish. Full.

However, Situ Nan changed himself. No matter how awesome the butterfly is, it is also a small butterfly.This is only his personal achievement, but for the vast history of the river, he is still an inconspicuous wave, which is not enough to change the general trend of the world.

Situ Nan, how many small waves can make a big wave?Or there is, but Situ Nan who is in it hasn't noticed for a while.

It was not until a few years later that the changes brought about by the butterfly's wings were caught by Situ Nan.
