When the music stopped, Li Zixuan finally parted with the reluctant Elizabeth.
However, before Li Zixuan could take a seat at the side of the hall
, the old English-styled butler, Ingram, who he had seen a few days ago, walked over.
"Mr. Rockefeller," he said.
"Mr. Rockefeller, I hope that Mr. Bruce can come to his study after the banquet."”
With that, he left.
He didn't give Li Zixuan any chance to agree or refuse.
"Rockefeller wants to see me alone!”Li Zixuan was a little surprised.
He wanted to find the figure of that big shot in the banquet hall.
However, what surprised him was that Rockefeller, who should have been in the banquet hall just now, was not there.
Even Lady Laura had left.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.
"Did something happen?”
Li Zixuan thought to himself.
Li Zixuan invited Marion for a dance at the following banquet.
As she looked happy, the music slowly ended.
During this time, he had a short conversation with the Rothford brothers.
It was mainly about the recent economic crisis in the Eaglejam Nation and the problems involving the Xia people.
Up until now, the Xia people living in the Eagle Sauce Nation did not have the right to vote.
Therefore, Theodore Rosford said that
the Xia people who had integrated into the Hawkeye Nation should be no different from the white people. They should also enjoy medical care, education, and voting rights.
He was part of the Elephant Party, the faction that firmly agreed with the Xia people.
Because he found the diligence and intelligence that the black people did not have in the Xia people.
In history, the countries established by the Xia people had always been ahead of the West. It was
only under the rule of the Tatars that the Xia people gradually declined.
If he could enter the White House one day, he would certainly promote equality between the Xia people and the white people.
Looking at his impassioned expression, Li Zixuan did not believe him completely. It was better to believe the words of a politician than to believe his stepdaughter.
However, as long as Theodore Roth could fulfill ten percent of his promise, it would be a good thing for the Xia people.
In fact, Li Zixuan would not even mind sending him to the president's throne ahead of time.
In fact, Chester Allen Arthur, the current president of the Hawkeye Nation, was a very good person.
He was the 21st president of the Hawkeye Nation after the assassination of President James Garfield on July 2nd, 1881.
However, Arthur was a firm believer in the abolition of slavery and sympathized with the Chinese.
Although the Summer Exclusions Act was passed during his term of office, he once worked hard to reduce the 20 years proposed by Congress to 10 years.
Unfortunately, this president was too inexperienced in the Elephant Party. He would not be able to be re-elected after two years.
Coupled with his own health, he could only live until 1886.
Therefore, it was impossible for Li Zixuan to invest in him.
However, the appearance of Theodore Rosford gave Li Zixuan another choice.
Li Zixuan had a very good impression of him just because he had reduced the Boxer Day reparations of the government across the Pacific Ocean in the future.
Of course, Theodore Rosford was still an ordinary councilman.
It was still too early for him to run for president, be it in terms of seniority or age.
However, to maintain a good relationship with him, investing in advance should be a very cost-effective thing for a businessman.
After the banquet ended, the guests left in an endless stream.
Li Zixuan was left alone. Then, under the guidance of the old butler, they came to the door of a room on the third floor of the manor's main building.
However, at this moment, a young man wearing a black tuxedo and a black top hat with sharp eyes walked out of the room.
"Mr. Rothschild!" The old butler immediately bowed when he saw him
.
"Yes!" The young man nodded and left with his civilization weapon with an ugly expression.
He did not even look at Li Zixuan the entire time, as if he was air.
After he left, Li Zixuan asked the butler,""That person's surname is Rothschild!"
The old butler nodded and said.
"Yes, he is known as the entire Europa's Creditor, the Rothschild family's little Nason Rothschild!”
"Why is he here to see Mr. Rockefeller?”Li Zixuan asked curiously.
The old butler shook his head.
Indeed, as a qualified butler, even if he knew about this, he would not reveal it to outsiders.
However, Li Zixuan did not expect to see the Rothschild family here.
This was the legendary richest family in the world with a future wealth of 500 billion US dollars.
At its peak, both Rockefeller and Morgan had to listen to this family.
It was said that around 186, the Rothschild family had accumulated a wealth equivalent to six billion US dollars,
and at that time, both Rockefeller and Morgan were still penniless.
In 19th century Europe, Rothschild was synonymous with money and wealth.
This was because the Old Continent (Europa) was unwilling to accept the existence of a western country that was independent of them.
As a result, the family supported Morgan's development and influence on the Hawksauce Kingdom, and they tried to fully control the Hawksauce Kingdom.
At this time, the Rockefeller, Dupont, and Mellon families did not have the strength to fight against the overly powerful Rothschild family. They could only adopt a compromise method.
Now that the Rothschild Family had arrived, it was hard for Li Zixuan not to make the connection.
No wonder Rockefeller had disappeared so soon after the banquet. It was probably because of the young man from the Rothschild.
Then, the old butler knocked on the door.
Soon, there was a response from inside the door.
"Come in!"
Thus, the old butler opened the door and led Li Zixuan in before leaving the room.
This was a very ordinary room, so simple that it did not even look like a place where a billionaire should stay.
There were no carpets, chandeliers, furniture, or other luxurious decorations.
There was only a desk that looked like it had been used for at least ten years, two chairs, and a dim kerosene lamp.
The rest were bookshelves full of books at the back.
Mr. Rockefeller was sitting on the chair behind the desk, but his face seemed a little gloomy.
"Sit!" he said when he saw Li Zixuan enter
.
Hence, Li Zixuan sat on the only chair left in the room.
Rockefeller seemed to see that he was a little reserved. He smiled and said,
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Bruce. I invited you here for nothing else. I just want to talk!"”
"Yes!" Li Zixuan nodded and continued to wait for him.
Rockefeller picked up a stack of documents on the table and said with a smile,
"I've sent someone to investigate your situation, including your father, the leader of the Freemasons!”
After a pause, he looked at Li Zixuan and said,
"Many of your cases have been handled well. The first razor factory came up with the idea of giving away razors and blades for free, which
allowed the product to quickly open up the California market. Then, with the help of newspaper publicity, it quickly became famous.”
Rockefeller flipped the document to another one and continued,
"However, what really made you famous was the bandit during the Civil War and your subsequent act of donating the bounty.
If you didn't donate the bounty, you would still be famous, but no one would remember you.”
Then, he raised his head slightly and looked at Li Zixuan with a smile.
"Next, you found the oil field that really made you rich. Bruce, do you know my first thought when I found out about that oil field?”
Of course, Li Zixuan didn't know what the Rockefeller was thinking. He shook his head.
"If I want to seize this oil field, I can easily get the California government to find a reason to make that oil field unexploitable for a short period of time. At
that time, the owner of the oil field can only sell the oil field to United Oil at a low price. Otherwise, there will be no profit.”
"However, after knowing that it was you, I chose to cooperate as compensation for killing the bandits. Of course, the cooperation between United Oil and you will not be a loss!”
At this time, Rockefeller changed the topic.
"However, your next development was beyond my expectations. You invented the rifle, smokeless gunpowder, and the operation of the Chicago futures market.”
"
Of course, what's more amazing is that you've become good friends with Elizabeth in the blink of an eye!"”
Li Zixuan was also surprised to hear Rockefeller's comprehensive analysis of himself.
It turned out that there were these things involved. If Rockefeller hadn't happened to read the newspaper, Li Zixuan's oil company might not have been able to start.
To the oil magnate, a small Xia family could not defend the oil field at all.
Rockefeller then said,
"But don't worry, I won't interfere with your relationship with Elizabeth. Bruce, you're a very good person. I've always advocated for family members to be friends with people who are better than themselves. You're obviously qualified
. As for what will happen between you, Elizabeth, and the daughter of Thomas Thomas, I won't interfere."”
"Thank you, Mr. Rockefeller!”Li Zixuan expressed his gratitude.
Rockefeller smiled.
"Yeah, right. I'll bring Elizabeth, John, and the others to the battle that day. Don't let us down!"”
Li Zixuan nodded and was sent off.
