"I don't think this matter is easy to handle. If you get the news, I will share the money when I make money. So can I do the same? You seem to have won dozens of government projects. Don't tell me.
Those who have nothing to do with your Skull and Bones Society, I also know that you will have hundreds of billions of dollars in income in the next ten years. Do you think you can give us some? Of course you will say that it is on your territory.
So what about on my territory? You have contracted huge urban planning projects in Malaysia. I think you can make a lot of money. I wonder if this will be distributed to me? This kind of thing is unreasonable.
When you make money, you have to share the money. If you make money, I have nothing to do with you. Then when your wife gives birth to a child, will you ask me to pay for milk powder?"

Li Cong, the Mexican silver mine, did not give this guy any face at all. If you were all direct descendants of several big families in the past, then I have a certain relationship with your ancestors, as well as the one in my own family.
I will give you face no matter what, but it is different now than before. The current Skull and Bones society is too complicated. Except for being consistent in dealing with energy groups, everything else is fundamentally different.
The guy opposite was choked by Li Cong and was speechless. He never thought that Li Cong would be so skillful. In his impression, Li Cong should not be such a person.
, why is it so difficult to talk this time? They were all very clear about the Great Russian Diamond last time. At that time, Li Cong gave hundreds of billions of dollars directly without any hesitation. But he didn't know
Yes, at that time Li Cong needed the power of the United States to help them bully Great Russia. Now it is completely different from that time. Now the two families are facing each other tit for tat. And this time it is not about minerals. Those minerals are long-term transactions.
, these are all assets, a one-time thing.
"Mr. Li means that he doesn't care about face at all.
1478
Did the Mexican silver mines give us the Skull and Bones Society? This seems not very good. If our Skull and Bones Society hadn't investigated the power of the Ku Klan, I don't think Mr. Li would have been able to obtain so many assets." This guy said
I almost didn’t mention it, but the Skull and Bones Society has reached this point, which really makes Li Cong look down on them. Thinking about how the Skull and Bones Society was what it is now, in fact, Li Cong was standing in his own position
Judging from the problem, it is good to have backbone, but the current Skull and Bones Society has suffered too much in all aspects. Especially the giant octopus. That big hole has not been filled by the Skull and Bones Society until now. In the local society
The strength of the navy is still waiting to be improved. How can these things be formed into an army if there is no money, and the wages in the United States are high. This is also a heavy burden. In the past, we could print a large amount of U.S. dollars, but now the energy
The financial department of the group is staring at them. If they increase printing, the tens of trillions of dollars in the energy group's hands will be thrown out immediately, and the gold and dollar empire that the Americans have been running for two hundred years may be wiped out.
It will directly turn into waste. That will be a fatal disaster for the Skull and Bones Society.
"Mr. Michael, I still say the same thing. This issue of face is something we give to each other. You didn't give me face when you did this. There is no need for me to give you face. These assets are indeed in your United States.
Yes, although we have an agreement, I cannot interrupt your energy supply, but if you go too far, don't blame me for being rude. I know very well that if I announce that you will cut off your energy supply, the entire
The United States is about to be in chaos, you should think about it carefully. I still have things to do here, so I won’t accompany you." After Li Cong said this, he asked his subordinates to turn off the video. This was the first time in so many years that he had to cut off the energy supply.
To threaten others, I can't use it unless I have to. I have a lot of assets in various places. The energy supply is the best talisman, but I can't use this thing all the time. It should be okay to use it once in a while.
It's a problem, but if you use it more, people won't be so afraid. If you threaten it too much, people will be killed. Everyone is not a fool.
When Michael saw Li Cong hang up the video, he immediately stood up and smashed the precious Chinese Ming Dynasty vase in front of him. Millions of RMB were just gone. Li Cong was bullying, this was power, they always
The United States started talking about this now. In the past, they often used this to bully others. In the 1990s, although the United States was not an oil-producing country, most of the oil-producing countries in the Middle East were in their hands.
Here, they threatened this and that at every turn. At that time, most people in the world were also angry with them. Now the situation has turned, and they have reached this point. They have finally tasted those things back then.
It feels uncomfortable.
A few days later, the energy group handed over the deeds of two commercial centers on Fifth Avenue in New York to the Skull and Bones Society. This matter was considered over. The two buildings with more than 50 floors were worth more than 30 billion U.S. dollars.
On Jin's Fifth Avenue, every square meter here is as high as 150,000 yuan. This is still a price but no market. Basically, this place will only be rented out. No one will sell it. Although the people from the Skull and Bones Society are not very
Satisfied, but this is better than nothing. If Li Cong continues to be tough, there is nothing they can do.
Li Cong also asked people to sell all the assets of the Klan that were not very profitable, and finally obtained 500 billion US dollars in cash and trillions of US dollars in fixed assets. Some of the original companies and energy groups also came to him
People continue to operate, and companies that are in operating difficulties will continue to be used if they can be used. If they are useless, they will basically be closed. The Kuomintang Party itself is reluctant to close so many companies.
But the energy group is different. They don't care about this at all. For the energy group, the most important thing is to be able to quickly convert these snatched assets into money. As for running it for them? If the efficiency is good, it is no problem. If the efficiency is not
Okay, I'm sorry.
However, there is also a downside to this matter, and that is the family of Miss Balin. In the past, Li Cong was counting on them to replace the Klan and help him continue to serve as his eyes in the United States, but now it seems that the Skull and Bones Society has also
They paid attention. Now that the matter has just ended, they may not like Miss Bahrain and the others, but they will come to deal with them soon after it passes. So Li Cong needs to find a place for them to stay, and Li Cong himself
He said that he is a bit like the captain of the transportation team. Last time he directly transported the Qin family out, and this time he has to help Miss Bahrain and the others move. But what is different this time is that these assets in the United States
Li Cong planned to buy it, so that they would not suffer losses because they were eager to sell. Such a formal transaction. Even though the Skull and Bones Society knew that they had no choice but to transfer their property, they still quickly passed a law to collect a large amount of taxes.
There is no way around this. People control the state machinery. If they want to charge you more, they can charge you more. However, Miss Baring’s Morgan family still retains Morgan Stanley, its best asset, in the United States.
Their influence is also very high, and it is difficult for the US government to attack them. As for their future destination, they did not let Li Cong help them choose. They chose a place themselves, where the influence of the Morgan consortium is also very strong.
And it is relatively close to Mexico, the southern neighbor of the United States. Although it is relatively chaotic there, there are enough benefits in chaotic places. Everyone knows this very well.
The United Mexican States (Spanish: lostestadosunidosmexicanos) is located in North America, bordering the United States to the north, Guatemala and Belize to the southeast, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea to the east. The capital is Mexico City. Mexico is a free market economy
It has modern industry and agriculture, and the proportion of the private economy has also increased significantly. After the formal establishment of the North American Free Trade Area in 1994, trade and investment exchanges between Mexico and the United States increased rapidly, which greatly promoted economic development and increased national income.
However, domestic security in Mexico continues to deteriorate. Although it has severely damaged cartel groups, the frequent violence has jeopardized foreign investment in the country. Finance Minister Carstens said that the deterioration of security alone reduced the country's annual GDP by 1%.

With an area of 1,964,375 square kilometers, it is the third largest country in Latin America and the 13th largest country in the world. It is located in the southern part of North America and the northwest tip of Latin America. It is the only place for land transportation in South and North America. It is known as the "land bridge".
". It borders the United States to the north, Guatemala and Belize to the south, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea to the east, and the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of California to the west. The coastline is 11,122 kilometers long. Among them, the Pacific coast is 7,828 kilometers, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean coast are 3,294 kilometers. There are 3.02 million people
square kilometers of exclusive economic zone and 358,000 square kilometers of continental shelf. The famous Isthmus of Tehuantepec connects North America and Central America. About 56% of the country is plateau and mountainous. The Mexican plateau is in the middle, flanked by the East and West Sierra Madre Mountains.
, to the south are the New Volcanic Mountains and the Sierra Madre del Sur, and to the southeast is the flat Yucatan Peninsula, with many long and narrow plains along the coast. The highest peak in the country, Orizaba Volcano, is 5,702 meters above sea level. The main rivers are Bravo River, Balsa River
Mexico River and Yaqui Mexico River. Lakes are mostly distributed in the mountain basins of the central plateau. The largest is Lake Chapala, covering an area of 1,109 square kilometers. Mexico has a complex and diverse climate. The coastal and southeastern plains have a tropical climate, with an average annual temperature of
25c-27.7c; the Mexican plateau has a mild climate all year round, with a temperature of 24c in the mountain basins and about 17c in the higher areas; the inland northwest has a continental climate. Most areas are divided into two seasons: dry and rainy throughout the year. The rainy season is concentrated at 75c throughout the year.
% of precipitation. The average annual precipitation in the northwest is less than 250 mm, in the interior it is 750-1,020 mm, and in the central Gulf Coast and southern Pacific Coast is 1,020-2,020 mm. Because most of the territory in Mexico is plateau terrain, there is no severe cold in winter and no cold in summer.
With the scorching heat and evergreen trees all year round, the natural conditions are extremely superior and it is known as the "Pearl of the Plateau".
Rich in mining resources, the reserves of 15 mineral products including gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc rank among the top in the world, mainly including gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, arsenic, bismuth, mercury, cadmium, antimony and phosphorus.
Stone, lapis lazuli, graphite, sulfur, fluorite, barite, fluorspar, etc. Among them, the output of silver has ranked first in the world for many years, known as the "Silver Kingdom". The output of bismuth, cadmium, and mercury ranks second in the world.
The production of barite and antimony ranks third in the world, and the output of iodine and mercury ranks fourth. The forest coverage area is 45.02 million hectares, accounting for about 14% of the total territory. The water resources are about 10.2 million kilowatts. The main seafood is shrimp,
Tuna, sardines, abalone, etc., among which shrimp and abalone are traditional export products. The Morgan consortium has a lot of assets in Mexico, whether openly or secretly, at least hundreds of millions of dollars in assets. This time the Morgan family
She wanted to move to Mexico because of the mineral resources here. Although the mineral resources here are already owned, Miss Baring believed that it would not be difficult to plunder them by force with the power of the Morgan family.
The Morgan family was still very efficient in doing things. In the second month after that incident, everything for the trip to Mexico was arranged. During this period, Li Cong also had some conversations with the current Mr. Morgan, and the energy group met
Publicly announced cooperation with the Morgan consortium to develop some large silver mines in Mexico.
To be honest, Li Cong doesn't think much of the silver business. He does have a lot of silver. The silver mine in the world is now at a very low level. Each gram of silver is only worth ten yuan, which is four times the price of gold.
One-tenth, one kilogram of platinum is only 10,202 yuan, and a meal of silver is only 10 million yuan. He didn't know what the Morgan family thought, but since they proposed it, they probably wanted a superficial article.
, I must cooperate well. The Ministry of Commerce of the energy group quickly issued this statement. It said that they had discovered a large-scale silver mine with reserves of over 100 million tons in Mexico. If this matter was not announced, the price of silver would still be around ten
It was about 1 yuan, but after it was announced, it immediately became 9 yuan. Li Cong really didn’t understand what the Morgan consortium wanted to do. But he couldn’t say no after agreeing to something, so let’s see what they wanted to do.
That's it. Anyway, it's just an investment of several hundred million dollars. It's not just this money that you just throw away a few. Besides, the Morgan family is not such an unreliable person.
Mexico and Peru are old silver-producing countries (since 1502 AD), and their production has been among the top five for decades or even centuries. Only in 1935, the silver production of these two countries was not squeezed.
It has entered the top 5 positions in the world. Now Peru and Mexico still occupy the dominant position with their silver production accounting for 13% of the world. In fact, Li Cong knows from some historical data that the domestic market has also gained significant importance in history because of the silver here.
change.
Since Columbus discovered the New World, colonists have exploited South American silver mines in large quantities, and most of the world's silver is produced in this region. When the old colonialists did business with China before the Opium War, China's porcelain, silk and tea became hot commodities.
They did not have suitable products to open the Chinese market, so they had to transport silver from South America and trade with China. This led to major changes in the traditional self-contained system of currency in the Ming Dynasty. China made a lot of money from overseas trade and transformed the past.
The relatively simple copper coin and paper currency standard was replaced by the silver and copper bistandard. This had a great impact on China's society and economy at that time.
First of all, China's traditional single currency system that combines copper coins and banknotes has undergone fundamental changes. Although silver in the past has become currency very early, its attributes are mostly limited to storage, and the role of copper as a medium has not gained application status. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty,
After the Spanish colonial silver dollars flowed into China in large quantities, the important status of silver in the Chinese monetary system was greatly improved. The government's policy of collecting silver in taxation further enhanced the important role of silver in the social economy, resulting in silver being used in large transactions and
Banknotes and copper coins play an irreplaceable role in government finances.
Secondly, it triggered the self-casting of silver coins in China. The Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty was the era when Chinese currency began to change, and imitation of silver coins was one of the changes. Silver cakes were the earliest silver coins in China and should be imitated from foreign silver coins.
Since the Spanish colonial silver coins began to flow in China in the late Ming Dynasty, the advantages of capitalist currencies have emerged. They conform to the laws of currency circulation, so their influence is expanding along the coast and in the south. The Opium War made China enter a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, and the coin culture also
Deeply integrated into this tragedy. Since then, the Eastern Chinese monetary culture, which is comparable to the Western ancient Greek monetary culture, has gradually lost its luster.
Li Cong had thought that they would make a fuss about currency, but now the mainstream of the world no longer uses silver. Basically, countries around the world have no hard link between precious metals and currencies. Let alone silver, it is gold.
If this thing wants to stir up the world's economy, it must have Li Cong's net worth. Without it, it is useless. Three thousand tons of gold can stir up the world's capital market, but what about replacing it with silver? Three hundred thousand tons is not necessarily possible.
How much it can accomplish is mainly because people in the world don't pay much attention to silver now. Although silver for industrial use is important, there are too many silver-producing countries in the world, and it is impossible for them not to export it. Li Cong
I really don't understand what they want to do.
