The journey starts from the Titanic

"Okay!" Situ Nan also said readily, and agreed.

Turning his head to the Roosevelt and Mrs. Roosevelt, he said, "Madam, now that the money has been partially implemented, when will I find a good principal for me? You and Laura will bother in the future."

Eleanor nodded, knowing that Situ Nan could not have much time to pay attention to school matters, and it was reasonable for his fiancée Laura to come forward.

"If the old man Lowell is allowed to be the principal, the storage will be unforgettable for those students." Roberts suddenly interjected.

"Lowell?" Situ Nan felt that the name was a bit familiar, and questioned.

"It's the old man with a serious face often at the door of the book!" Roberts reminded.

"Yes, Abbott Lawrence is indeed a famous educator and legal scholar at Harvard University." Franklin Roosevelt replied.

"Oh! You are talking about Abbott Lawrence Lowell, the president of Harvard University, and you two are still alumni!"

Situ Nan pointed to Franklin and Robles Road, and wanted to ask the president of Harvard University to condemn his unseen university president. This is unrealistic, but you can dig some from Harvard, Massachusetts, Yale, Chicago and other schools. The younger professor goes over and puts it together. The shelf should be set up in a short time.

After the Roosevelt and his wife left, Little Rockefeller stayed. Some business matters need to be settled with Situ.

"Please tell me you want to develop an oil business in Southeast Asia? Tell me what you think!" Little Rockefeller asked.He had heard of this, and he wanted to hear what the person Situ Nan thought.

"Yes. Although our two are competitors in the U.S. oil industry, our competitors in Southeast Asia and even the entire Asia are the British and Dutch. I know that Standard Oil’s products are now selling well in Asia, but in After the war, the Europeans will definitely return. With their advantages, our American oil company will be strongly suppressed by then. So I want to take advantage of the good time to expand Occidental's influence in Asia.

At the same time, I hope to reach a concerted action with Standard Oil. Gulf Oil has agreed to my plan."Situ Nan added.

This kid is so cunning!Little Rockefeller thought to himself, you are married to someone else's daughter, and Gulf Petroleum and Occidental Petroleum are not a family anymore?

Now Standard Oil is increasingly being challenged by these two rising stars, and what is more reluctant to see is that the two of them unite against Standard Oil.

One is the Mellon family, which is no less than the Rockefeller family, and the other is a rising star in the rise of the West. If they unite, they have to make Rockefeller jealous, and it is no longer the era when the Standard Oil Trust is rampant.

Although Mobil Oil Company (formerly known as Standard Oil Company of New York), Exxon Oil Company (formerly known as Standard Oil Company of New Jersey), and Chevron Oil Company (formerly known as Standard Oil Company of California), the three original Standard Oil Systems companies still In the hands of the Rockefeller family, the status of the Rockefeller family in American oil is still unshakable, but after all, it is not the era when it could do whatever it wanted in the oil market more than a decade ago.

Fortunately, influenced by the old Rockefeller, he is not the kind of person who is too keen on power, and he is more open to money, and the relationship with the Mellon family is also good. The two sides have had a lot of cooperation, even if it is commercial competition. Generally, it will not bring personal grievances, and I never thought of using family force to clean up competitors. After all, the times are not the same.

Seeing Situ Nan's self-confident and young appearance, Rockefeller sighed mentally, feeling a little old.

"John, what are you thinking about?" Situ Nan asked when the other party did not respond.From the looks of it, Little Rockefeller looks more like his old man, with a big square face, but Situ Nan doesn't care about this. If the other party doesn't agree, then he can only do it himself under the brand of cooperation with Gulf Oil.

"It's nothing. It's just a bit of emotion to see you so young." Little Rockefeller replied, "Just do as you said! Our American company should maintain a tacit understanding of this matter and let Europeans know our strength."

Little Rockefeller said confidently that he didn't think that the old Rockefeller, the old Morgan and other generations had deep feelings for Europe, and the younger Rockefeller generation was more American.As the United States became stronger and stronger, Americans became more confident and stronger in the face of Europeans.

After all, even if this is done, the Rockefeller family has taken a big advantage. After all, their business is the largest in Asia, and Occidental Petroleum is just the little brother behind them.

Gulf Oil Company is more focused on the US market. If Situ Nan wanted to raise the flag, Gulf Oil Company would rather go to South America to try his luck.

Well, with the tacit understanding of Mobil Oil, Situ Nan is more confident to go to Indonesia to dig the corner of the Dutch.

When the time comes, part of the profits will be shared with Mobil Oil Company, and there will be no need to worry about being weak.Thinking of this, Situ Nan felt relaxed.

At this moment, the United States' outpost colony in the Southeast Ocean thousands of miles away, the busy and simple Port of Manila, with a cheerful ship whistle, the "Gold Digger" sailed in against the brilliant evening glow.

It is a California shipping company affiliated to the city of Los Angeles in the United States. It often travels back and forth between the west coast of the United States and Southeast Asia full of American goods.

After a long journey, this cargo ship from Los Angeles finally arrived at its first stop in Asia.

"Mr. Yao, Manila is here," the young assistant reminded as he walked to a well-dressed man.

"Oh! Arrived? Ordered to unload the cargo, and the cargo at the bottom of the ship must be concealed first. Naturally someone will contact you when we get to Sumatra. I'm going down. See you in a few days."

After finishing talking, Yao Hongmin grabbed a gentleman's hat and put it on his head, and walked out with a civilized stick.

This is his second visit to Manila. As a representative of an American steel company, he has set up a small steel plant in Manila this year and also contracted nearby mines.

Thanks to the war in Europe, these businesses have stopped well.Because it is generous and is a company of the sovereign state, it has always been under the care of the colonial government.

What makes him most proud of is another identity, the commissioner of Meihua Reclamation Company.Although not well-known, Yao Hongmin has always acted in a low-key manner. Many people do not know that he has set up a lot of farms in the Philippines. In other parts of Southeast Asia, such as Sarawak and Sumatra, a large amount of land is secretly controlled by him. A large number of Chinese workers don’t know. Hired in these farms.

Facing the splendid sunset, Yao Hongmin looked at the peaceful Manila Bay and felt very happy.The big boss will be here soon, and then there will be a big action!

There was a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.

Chapter 157 Rebuilding Confidence, Nicholas' New Toy (Part 1)

Although it is not a grand, there is no doubt that this is a high-gold engagement wedding. The sum of the gifts received exceeds 500,000 US dollars, which surprised Situ Nan.In his past and present life, it was the first time he received such a heavy gift!

"That's a lot! I knew it would be a big deal. If you have more people, can you receive more gift money soon? But fortunately, the next time you get married, you must do it grandly. Don't buy a thousand or hundreds. Wan Li Jin Lao Zi will never give up!" Situ Nan murmured, without the consciousness of a billionaire at all.

"What are you talking about?" Laura gave Situ Nan a blank look, a little uncomfortable that this guy associates romantic engagement with money.

"Isn't this stressful? It's not enough to feed a beautiful person like Laura without a certain net worth!" Situ Nan smiled.

"Cai fan!" Laura sneered. In fact, she was pretty well supported, not extravagant, but in some ways she was willing to spend money.

Enduring the slight discomfort of her body, she got up and opened the curtains, and the sun suddenly filled the whole room.

This is on the William.Laura stood at the window, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, feeling relaxed and happy.A thin pajamas casually wrapped her better figure.

The wind was a bit strong, and a corner of Laura's upper body was lifted to reveal the bulging white breasts. She quickly tightened her clothes with her hands, but the "annoying spring breeze" lifted her thin pajamas from below, and her slender and delicate thighs were unobstructed. .

It was not only Laura's skirt that was moved by the wind, but also Situ Nan's heart.He sat on the edge of the bed, watching the beautiful curves of the beauty bathed in the morning sun, and the romantic scenes of last night appeared in his mind from time to time, and he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

A treasure ship with a beautiful woman on it, and then traveling around the world, this kind of life seems good!Situ Nan thought, feeling satisfied.

"It's a really good weather today! My dear, the company will have a sea trial later, are you interested in seeing it?" Situ Nan sat neatly dressed in the dining room under the service of Laura.

"About what?" Laura asked.

"Mine mine! The experiment hosted by Nikola Tesla used a mine to sink a German submarine." Situ Nan replied.Originally, Laura shouldn't be involved in this matter, but Situ Nan's mentality has changed a bit after the engagement. He feels that the two are one and can more actively let Laura "show her face".

"I'm not going there anymore. I made an appointment with Eleanor and she introduced me to a professor." Laura frowned, feeling uncomfortable every time she heard the shipwreck.

"Oh! That's a pity." Situ Nan patted his head and smiled, "I almost forgot. Our Lady Laura is now the chairperson of the University of William's School Committee. We must choose for our school. An outstanding principal!"

Situ Nan walked to the window sill and hugged Laura from behind, gently pressed her face to Laura's ear, and said softly, "Facing the sea, and the spring flowers bloom. If this happens all my life, it would be great. what!"

"Yeah." Laura didn't speak, and looked at the sea quietly, facing the sea breeze, feeling a little intoxicated in her heart.Feeling pushed by something behind his back, and there are some signs of being tempted, well, the man is angry in the morning.

Although she was a little obsessed with the feeling of being surrounded by warmth, Laura no longer had the courage to serve Situ Nan, a bull, and pushed him away.

"Aren't you going out? You're about to be late now!" Laura said, taking Situ Nan's clothes out of them.

"It seems to be seen through!" Situ Nan looked at the tent below and smiled, is this called the marrow of knowledge or insatiable?

After breakfast, when Situ Nan passed by Laura neatly dressed, she smiled mysteriously, "I will let you go for the time being, and come back tonight to let you taste the new posture! Haha!"

Situ Nan quickly walked off the William. Next to the William was a speedboat prepared by Bethlehem Company early. It carried Situ Nan to the shipbuilding base of Bethlehem Shipbuilding Company in New York, leaving Laura blushing.
