"
Boss, do you think the military will purchase a large number of my heavy machine guns?" Browning asked after he finished his proud introduction.”
Hearing this, Li Zixuan rolled his eyes and said,
"John, do you want to hear the truth or lie?"”
Even now, John Browning was still not used to Li Zixuan's way of speaking. He said seriously
,"Boss, of course I want to hear the truth!”
"That means it's impossible. It's fine to buy a little, but if we buy a large number, who do you think the Eagle Sauce Nation needs to fight now?”
Li Zixuan gave a reason.
Speaking of which, Li Zixuan had always been annoyed that he couldn't sell his weapons to the Eagle Country's military.
However, America was too comfortable!
There was no sign of human habitation in Canada, and
Mexico was a country bumpkin. To be honest, after the Eagle Country annexed so much land in Mexico, even it was a little embarrassed to make a move.
Of course, the main reason was that there was nothing good in Mexico.
Spain was a Spanish colony, and the Falcon Empire had yet to attack it.
As such, Yingchan looked around and realized that even with a broken gun, it could still defeat the surrounding country bumpkins.
The military's desire to change their equipment was obviously lacking.
In addition, it was difficult for the Congress to approve the military budget. Even if Li Zixuan went to Rockefeller for this, it would be useless.
John Browning was speechless when he heard his BOSS roll his eyes.
In fact, Lee Browning Weapons had become a weapon company comparable to Winchester in the Eagle Jam Nation.
Most of the buyers of weapons were not domestic but for export.
When the 1882 Lee rifle was imported to the Hans Empire, it immediately attracted the attention of the European countries. There
were orders from belgium, denmark, and poland.
Even in the country across the Pacific Ocean, the Li family's Li Shiyang Firm, which was later established in Shanghai, received orders in 1883.
Later, Li Zixuan found out that the 5000 1882 Li rifles were ordered by the Beiyang minister who had the same surname as Li Zixuan.
Li Zixuan only charged a cost fee for the last order, excluding the transportation fee.
It was said that the Beiyang minister with the same surname signed a treaty with the representative of the Gaul Chicken, Fulunuo, while using those guns in the war with the Gaul Chicken.
In 1885, the Gaul Chicken was defeated and fled.
Later on, the Gallic Chicken's embassy in the Eagle Sauce Nation filed a complaint against Lee Browning Weapons Company for selling advanced weapons to "that country."
In response, the Eaglejam Nation responded with normal business practices.
After all, it wasn't the first time that 'that country' had been banned from purchasing firearms. The Eagle Jam Nation would turn a blind eye to it in order to protect the interests of their own companies.
However, in the end, Li Zixuan was full of hatred because even with such advanced weapons,"that country" had been defeated.
From then on, Li Zixuan tried his best not to touch orders from "that country".
Li Shi's foreign firm in Shanghai only dealt in ordinary goods such as tea leaves and porcelain.
There was still a market for these goods in the Eaglejam Nation.
After leaving the third floor, Li Zixuan came to the Biochemical Research Department.
The head of the research department was Abel.
He was about 33 years old and studied at the University of California in his early years. After graduating in 1883, he went to Germany to study for six years as a graduate student and studied under Ludovic.
In 1888, he received a Ph.D. and in 1890, he received a Ph.D. in medicine.
After returning to China, he was hired by the Umbrella Laboratory to become the director.
To be honest, there were very few experts in biochemistry in the Eagle Jam Kingdom in this era, and Abel was the most amazing person now. In the
future, he invented adrenaline and the crystallization of glucose, making him famous.
Now, he was in charge of the research of the Sulfonylsulfamide and Penicillins.
He had already developed more than ten kinds of medicaments. Although it would take some time to mass-produce penicillin, it was not a big problem to synthesize it in the laboratory.
After Li Zixuan checked the research progress of each department in the Umbrella Laboratory,
he took the elevator to the office on the highest floor.
He needed to approve the recent financial statements of the laboratory, even though the research in this laboratory was beyond this era.
However, the cost was also quite high. If it weren't for the fact that he had opened more than 50 fast food restaurants in the United States and signed several oil fields, it
would be difficult for him to support the laboratory.
However, the results were not bad. Now, he only needed to cash in a portion of the technology.
Ding! Ding! At this moment, the phone rang.
Li Zixuan picked up the phone and said,
"I'm Bruce!"
It turned out that the call was made by his private lawyer, Bob, who had opened a specialized law firm in New York.
Not only did Li Zixuan still hire him as a private lawyer, but he also contracted out all the company's matters to his firm.
In fact, other than a few national patent lawsuits, all the legal issues of the company were handled very well by Bob.
Li Zixuan was delighted when he heard Bob's voice.
"She agreed. Okay, I'll go to Buffalo immediately!”
After hanging up the phone, Li Zixuan thought for a while and made another call.
Soon, a calm voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
"I'm JC Fuguo!"
"Mr. Fuguo, hello, I'm Bruce!”
"Oh, Bruce, what's the matter?”
"Well, my lawyer, Bob, just called me. Mrs. Anna is going to sell 15% of the shares of the rich country company for 10 million US dollars!”
Suddenly, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before he said,
"Bruce, I know that you obtained Henry Wills '13% shares of the company through the exchange of shares of Lee Smith Oil Company two years ago.
The shares you hold now are 2% more than mine. Other than those scattered shares that are difficult to gather, you are already the largest shareholder of the company!”
"
Bruce, tell me, do you want to control the company?"”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Rich Country. Business is business. If possible, I hope to complete the acquisition of Rich Country Corporation. You should know that my company lacks banking services. Compared to acquiring those small banks, I value Rich Country Corporation more!”
The phone was silent for a moment again. Then, JC Fuguo said,
"How about this? If you're willing, I can split up Fuguo Corporation. I can split up Fuguo's main banking and transportation industries!”
"Do you mean to give me the banking industry?”
"That's right. In the future, Fuguo will only keep the transportation industry. However, this requires an accounting company and a law firm to convert the shares!”
Li Zixuan thought for a moment. Compared to the transportation industry of the rich country, he valued the banking business of the rich country more.
In fact, at first, the company operated a stagecoach business.
By the mid-1860s, it had almost monopolized carriage transportation between California and the East.
Later on, with the construction of the large railway, the rich country acquired shares of the railway company and became a transportation giant with the railway as the main and the station carriages as the auxiliary. The
coverage included tens of thousands of towns in the Eagle Jam Nation.
Therefore, the company was very famous in the western part of the Eagle Jam Nation, and the western residents and their descendants had a good impression of the company.
As for the banking business of the rich country company, it originated during the gold rush. The rich country company bought gold from the gold diggers and sold gold coins.
They transported the gold bullion purchased in the west to the east, and then transported the gold coins cast in the east back to California to communicate with the east and promote the development of the west.
In fact, even without Li Zixuan's participation, by 1905,
the company would have taken the initiative to split its banking and transportation business. In the same year, it merged with the National Bank of Nevada-to form the then Well-Being Bank.
However, since JC Rich Country was willing to take the initiative to split up and calculate the shares.
Li Zixuan could get the majority of the business of the Wellington Bank, while JC Wellington could keep the transportation business. Both sides were not at a disadvantage.
After all, after re-calculating the shares, both of them could be said to have a controlling stake in their respective businesses.
Of course, if possible, JC Rich Country definitely did not want to lose its banking business.
However, it was really difficult for him to compete with Li Zixuan in terms of financial resources.
After several years of development, the company's overall value had exceeded the 50 million mark,
but his shares in JC Rich Country were only 26%. Was he supposed to sell these shares to buy the 15% shares his brother, William Rich Country, left for his wife, Anna?
As for the other company, American Express, JC Rich Country was more optimistic about the business of American Express than the banking business of Rich Country.
Therefore, JC Rich Country chose the second best option, the transportation industry, which they valued more, and abandoned the banking industry.
As for the other shareholders of Fu Guo, sorry, JC Fu Guo and Li Zixuan already held more than 50% of the shares. They could directly announce the split.
(PS: New book, please collect it. Flowers, tickets. The new book is like a seedling. I hope to receive the care of all the readers. Thank you, everyone.) "

However, the results were not bad. Now, he only needed to cash in a portion of the technology.
Ding! Ding! At this moment, the phone rang.
Li Zixuan picked up the phone and said,
"I'm Bruce!"
It turned out that the call was made by his private lawyer, Bob, who had opened a specialized law firm in New York.
Not only did Li Zixuan still hire him as a private lawyer, but he also contracted out all the company's matters to his firm.
In fact, other than a few national patent lawsuits, all the legal issues of the company were handled very well by Bob.
Li Zixuan was delighted when he heard Bob's voice.
"She agreed. Okay, I'll go to Buffalo immediately!”
After hanging up the phone, Li Zixuan thought for a while and made another call.
Soon, a calm voice sounded from the other end of the phone.
"I'm JC Fuguo!"
"Mr. Fuguo, hello, I'm Bruce!”
"Oh, Bruce, what's the matter?”
"Well, my lawyer, Bob, just called me. Mrs. Anna is going to sell 15% of the shares of the rich country company for 10 million US dollars!”
Suddenly, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before he said,
"Bruce, I know that you obtained Henry Wills '13% shares of the company through the exchange of shares of Lee Smith Oil Company two years ago.
The shares you hold now are 2% more than mine. Other than those scattered shares that are difficult to gather, you are already the largest shareholder of the company!”
"
Bruce, tell me, do you want to control the company?"”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Rich Country. Business is business. If possible, I hope to complete the acquisition of Rich Country Corporation. You should know that my company lacks banking services. Compared to acquiring those small banks, I value Rich Country Corporation more!”
The phone was silent for a moment again. Then, JC Fuguo said,
"How about this? If you're willing, I can split up Fuguo Corporation. I can split up Fuguo's main banking and transportation industries!”
"Do you mean to give me the banking industry?”
"That's right. In the future, Fuguo will only keep the transportation industry. However, this requires an accounting company and a law firm to convert the shares!”
Li Zixuan thought for a moment. Compared to the transportation industry of the rich country, he valued the banking business of the rich country more.
In fact, at first, the company operated a stagecoach business.
By the mid-1860s, it had almost monopolized carriage transportation between California and the East.
Later on, with the construction of the large railway, the rich country acquired shares of the railway company and became a transportation giant with the railway as the main and the station carriages as the auxiliary. The
coverage included tens of thousands of towns in the Eagle Jam Nation.
Therefore, the company was very famous in the western part of the Eagle Jam Nation, and the western residents and their descendants had a good impression of the company.
As for the banking business of the rich country company, it originated during the gold rush. The rich country company bought gold from the gold diggers and sold gold coins.
They transported the gold bullion purchased in the west to the east, and then transported the gold coins cast in the east back to California to communicate with the east and promote the development of the west.
In fact, even without Li Zixuan's participation, by 1905,
the company would have taken the initiative to split its banking and transportation business. In the same year, it merged with the National Bank of Nevada-to form the then Well-Being Bank.
However, since JC Rich Country was willing to take the initiative to split up and calculate the shares.
Li Zixuan could get the majority of the business of the Wellington Bank, while JC Wellington could keep the transportation business. Both sides were not at a disadvantage.
After all, after re-calculating the shares, both of them could be said to have a controlling stake in their respective businesses.
Of course, if possible, JC Rich Country definitely did not want to lose its banking business.
However, it was really difficult for him to compete with Li Zixuan in terms of financial resources.
After several years of development, the company's overall value had exceeded the 50 million mark,
but his shares in JC Rich Country were only 26%. Was he supposed to sell these shares to buy the 15% shares his brother, William Rich Country, left for his wife, Anna?
As for the other company, American Express, JC Rich Country was more optimistic about the business of American Express than the banking business of Rich Country.
Therefore, JC Rich Country chose the second best option, the transportation industry, which they valued more, and abandoned the banking industry.
As for the other shareholders of Fu Guo, sorry, JC Fu Guo and Li Zixuan already held more than 50% of the shares. They could directly announce the split.
