The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 76

"I have to start with the securities company I work with. You know, I have always wanted to make it bigger and stronger and become the largest securities company on Wall Street. In fact, I'm doing pretty well, right?" Robles Said proudly.

Indeed, as a large newly opened securities company, although it has a lot of initial capital, the registered fund has 5 million US dollars. This Wall Street can be regarded as an investment bank below the middle level.

Seeing that Robles did a good job, the previous few speculations were successful. Situ Nan later invested 20 million US dollars to enter, and the return was good, which undoubtedly increased Situ Nan’s confidence in Robles.At first, Situ Nan was afraid that Robles would not do a good job, and he was ready to lose money, but he did not expect that Robles really withstood the pressure and gained a foothold in the fiercely competitive Wall Street.

"Yes, you did a great job! However, the current Robles Securities Company is not enough for Citibank, as well as J.P Morgan of the Morgan family, Kuhn-Robb Company of Jacob Schiffer, These are all well-known financial monopoly organizations."

Situ Nan pours cold water on Robes in a small way. When doing this kind of speculative business, remember to be hot-headed and arrogant.But then Situ Nan smiled and added: "However, you met me, we are the best partner, maybe we can surpass them in the future!"

"Go to hell!" Robles was about to get into the point when he was interrupted by Situ Nan's words. He could not see that this guy was even more arrogant than himself, but he wanted to criticize others instead of self-examination.

"Although I have finally made a name for myself on Wall Street in the past two years, many investors are willing to hand over money to Robes Securities for investment, but the combined money of these customers is not as much as you put into the securities company alone. Lots, I do the calculations, now Robles Securities can raise more than 40 million U.S. dollars. Now we have a great opportunity in front of us, and it depends on you. The thing is like this Yes." Robles finally revealed his plan.

It turned out that he had taken a fancy to the US Treasury bonds, to be precise, the US Treasury bonds in the hands of the British.European countries, especially Britain and France before the First World War, held large amounts of US treasury bonds, and they were the largest creditors of the United States.

But after the war broke out, things changed. In the past two years, Britain imported a lot of materials from the United States, and a lot of money went into American pockets, which in turn owed Americans a lot of money.

Thirty years in the east of the Hexi, 30 years of the Hexi, Feng Shui turns, and now the former minions can already slap their noses on their original masters.

In order to raise funds for the war, the British government, under the instigation of bankers, came up with a wicked idea, that is, to tax the interest of the American national debt in the hands of British nationals!

As a result, the price of U.S. Treasury bonds in the UK market fell in response, and the British sold off U.S. Treasury bonds. As a result, the Bank of England was filled with U.S. Treasury bonds, and the bank obtained a large amount of U.S. Treasury bonds from the people at very low prices .This trick is said to be Rothschild's trick again, they are tired of it!

The British government and the Bank of England are deliberately obtaining these US Treasury bonds from their citizens. Naturally, they can't put them in the treasury for nothing and wait to cash out after the war, right?

The situation is not so good now. The top priority is how to persevere. If the United Kingdom falls, these US Treasury bonds will be taken to the United States by the Germans to cash out?

Chapter 53 The $3 Billion Bond

Now the war has been fought for two years and there is no end in sight. Both the Allies and the Allies are struggling to support it.

It's like a certain kind of exercise is about to reach its climax, but the big ones have not come yet. Everyone is waiting for the other party to vent first.

This kind of suffering is ecstatic!.

Facing the daily astronomical consumption of materials, the British can no longer bear it. A large number of ships are sent to the bottom of the sea by German submarines. The materials of colonies all over the world cannot be transported in, so they rely on these US Treasuries to save lives.

Cents!I want cents!

So now the British have become a cent party.

"This is an astronomical bond, the number reaches 3 billion US dollars!" Robles licked his lips and said.He couldn't hide the greed in his eyes, as if he saw a huge cake.

Situ Nan didn't even slap his tongue. The British Empire has been a pirate for hundreds of years, and his family is not so thick!No wonder every time I was half-dead in World War I and World War II, he always persisted to the final victory.

There are also a few pounds of nails in a bad boat!What's more, this is a rich ship!The saying that the landlord has no surplus food is not suitable for the British. Has anyone ever seen territories spread over five continents and four oceans, covering an area of ​​more than 2,000 square kilometers, and the sunless empire that occupies the golden waterways of the world has no surplus food?

There is surplus food, but it is temporarily unavailable.

Since the Battle of Jutland, the Germans’ high seas fleet had to hide in the port of Kiel to bask in mosquitoes.

Although the Germans did a good job and won the victory as they advertised, why couldn't they make it to the Atlantic?

Maybe the location is not good?Did you give birth to the wrong place?!

Germany, this big country in Central Europe is known as the crossroads of Europe, and it is right!

There are wolves in front and tigers behind, and there is a super hooligan across the sea!And these gangsters are so good at fighting!

Ok!Since those gangsters want to block and block themselves, the German A Leng has no choice but to fight for it. Then I won't pay for it?The big deal is that everyone will return to the same level, so everyone is hungry.

If the light doesn't work, come dark!

Can't beat the British on the water, the German competes with the British underwater, so the German offers a weapon of mass destruction: submarine!

The expert will know if there is any!The German submarine doesn't have to emerge from the water, but a long wretched pipe stretches out from the water. It is a look-out mirror!

The captain leaned forward and took a look, hehe, there is a ship with the Pozi flag, great!The captain sent an order to fire, and the launcher of the torpedo bay pressed the launch button, and a fish crackled and shot out.

"Hush, keep quiet!"

The captain was busy for a few seconds, two minutes...one minute...nineteen, eighty-seven...one.

With a "pop", there was an exciting explosion sound from the listener, which made the trivial Germans hiding under the water crooked!

They just sent the British merchant ship into the sea.

KO!

It's so evil!

But not every time is so lucky. Sometimes, when the German submarine is chased by the British destroyer, it is also painful to hide in the water and throw a depth bomb.

In general, however, the German countermeasures have been quite effective. In addition to the British island country, resources are limited and protracted war cannot be played. Once the material input is cut off, it is like the following pipe is cut off.Persuaded!

Now British bankers are eager to find agents in the United States to sell these U.S. Treasury bonds. Of course, the price must be negotiated.

Banks will not lose money, even if they are compensated by the state, is the state not all the nationals' money?

In fact, these U.S. Treasury bonds are not easy to sell. Although Americans are more willing to accept their own Treasury bonds, ordinary Americans will hesitate if they know that the money from these Treasury bonds is used for military expenditures for the British.

At least more than 10% of the American population, Germans and Irish are not keen to buy these bonds, they all have enemies with the British.

Because the United States has not yet entered the war, most Americans are not like the big businessmen or capitalists, who are well-informed and see the current situation so accurately. Although they hate Germans, they don't want to fight Germans.

The people are very simple. They don't want to participate in a dog-biting war until they are not threatened or incited by others.

We must know that the rich contribute money, and powerfully contribute. The people who died in the battle are the ordinary people, not the rich people with big bellies.

They really can't think of any direct relationship between European wars and them. It is impossible to use US Treasury bonds to draw money out of their pockets and use them for war.Especially farmers in the Midwest have always hated the bankers in the east.

Not only that, farmers in the Midwest and German-Americans also resolutely boycotted the banks that bought these treasury bonds. Most of the banks in the Midwest were small and medium-sized banks. These banks were not interested in the big banks in the east. Before the United States entered the war, these national debts were not so easy to sell. On the contrary, they were hoarded and their prices dropped a lot.

In fact, these bonds can be sold out after all, and they are hot, but there is a time gap.Time is really what the British lack most, they can't wait!

In the east, especially in New York, the banks are not in a hurry at all. It is the British who are anxious. The savvy American bankers can just depress the price of the U.S. Treasury bonds in the hands of the British!

"Tell me about the detailed plan." Situ Nan asked.

At this time, if you still don't understand what Robes is thinking, Situ Nan can go out to the left, and then be hit by a car and cross back directly.

"Now Morgan, Rockefeller, and Jacob Schiff have a tacit understanding of the guys, and they are still pressing the British!

Wall Street knows this!

But such a large sum of money is not easy for Morgan and Rockefeller to raise at a time, so I guess he will contact other bankers on Wall Street.

This time, if we can get on this downwind boat, it will be the name of our Robles Securities, and the strength of our Robles Securities will be even higher and will be able to rise to the top of the Wall Street Pyramid."Robos clenched his fists, his face confident.
