Chapter 89 Small Steel Mills
For his brother-in-law, Edith Rockefeller's husband, Rockefeller Jr. did not disrespect him because of the difference in capital strength. In fact, in terms of family, the Rockefeller family can be regarded as a model. Although the male heir is extremely difficult
It's important, but when it comes to treating his daughter, the old Rockefeller is definitely not stingy.
Edith Rockefeller's net worth is as high as thirty million US dollars. What is the concept? After many years of European life, several important heirs of the railroad king Vanderbilt are probably like this now.
Although the marriage between the two families can be seen by anyone, it is an obvious business marriage, and the two have no emotional basis at all, but they can get along well, and the young Rockefeller is still sincerely happy.
.
Because in a sense, Edith Rockefeller helped him. When it came to treating his children, the elder Rockefeller was strict with his only heir, but would not interfere emotionally. The younger Rockefeller could have sex with any woman as long as he liked.
When it comes to marriage, it's just the opposite when it comes to treating daughters. Money is not an issue, but it's not up to them who they want to marry.
"Really, William, what are you thinking about?" Rockefeller suddenly said to Sheffield, obviously wanting him to say something at this time.
"Yes, yes!" Sheffield nodded, as if he didn't understand what you were talking about.
Sheffield is not interested in personal feelings now, especially other people's personal feelings. As long as he has a place in the industrial field in the past few years, he can become a beast in the long time to come, but now he still has to
Move forward with a heavy load and work hard.
There are still a lot of plans in front of us, including the acquisition of steel plants, inspection of the land environment in the west, and issues in the pharmaceutical industry. Of course, there are several things related to Rockefeller Jr., and it is really a shame that the other party has not officially taken over now, otherwise hundreds of dollars a day
With tens of thousands of people, how could they have time to travel around with the Texas rancher?
"It will be published tomorrow!" Sheffield finished reviewing the manuscript and felt like an editor. He read the press release from beginning to end and waited for publication if he felt that there were no problems.
Harold McCormick's remarks about the barbaric development of industry in the United States and being big but not strong spread throughout Chicago the next day. In the eyes of people, a young entrepreneur is richer than you and works harder than you.
The image is vivid on the page. Ordinary people don't know who Harold McCormick is, and they don't unilaterally accept the information fed to them by the media.
However, in the eyes of another group of people, it is clear to them how powerful Harold McCormick is. He openly expressed his stance on the new patent law. In fact, it can be understood that he is taking action on this matter on behalf of the big oil merchants and big farmers.
Make a comment.
So in the next few days, the heads of factories and companies in various places performed their spokesperson duties on behalf of the real owners who were unwilling to die personally, saying that Harold McCormick's words were thought-provoking and deafening, and until now, the United States
Dilemma, if we want to truly welcome the arrival of the American century, we still need citizens of the United States, including ourselves, to work hard and move forward with a heavy burden.
As for whether you are thinking that the money of the gentry will be returned in full, and the money of the common people will be divided 50-50. The country can lose, but the consortium must make profits, no one knows. For the sake of the manifest destiny of the United States, intellectual property rights must be fully respected.
Let the industry giants in the United States develop further and develop enough to not be afraid of foreign capital under any circumstances.
Real industry giants all know that the new patent law will do them more good than harm, so what else can they say? Of course, for the sake of a better tomorrow for the United States, we still need to strengthen our own strength.
How well said. Sheffield is pleased with the united giants of the United States. Unity among capitalists is always easier than unity among bastards. With these supports, there is no need to worry about the American century not accelerating.
"I rarely receive guests with such care. It's all because of your cooperation with Standard Oil!" Edith Rockefeller was so interested that she even felt that she could overcome the unpleasant smell in the industrial factory area.
"Then I really want to thank you. Who is keeping John busy? Your husband can't fulfill his duty of receiving partners? After all, I have also taken out a lot of patents and cross-licensed them with him!" Sheffield said boredly to Chicago's No. 1
The wife thanked her and thought about whether to end her trip to Chicago quickly.
But it doesn't work. Although the technical staff of the Ruhr area have been sent to Texas, he still has to wait for the arrival of Coubertin. As for why he doesn't want the French and the Germans to be together, how simple is this?
How many French people don’t hate Germans these days?
"He's busy with his business, and I have to be considerate of him!" Edith Rockefeller said nonchalantly, seeming to enjoy this kind of travel, and she thought so too.
Edith Rockefeller must say that he admired the style of the Sheffield family very much. No matter where he went, he never kept a low profile. Even when he came out to inspect a project, he would always be surrounded by dozens of people, making it a very eye-catching spectacle.
There is no way to do this. This is a legacy of family history. Ever since his grandfather defected to Cao Cao and his father lost contact with him in Paris for many years, the Sheffield family has been like this. Lafayette wants his heir to do something, so he cannot be kept at home.
. He naturally acts as a man everywhere he goes, just to prevent accidents from happening.
With Edith Rockefeller, the first lady of Chicago, personally taking action, Chicago naturally kept no secrets from Sheffield. Even the Rockefeller family's investment in the pharmaceutical industry, Edith Rockefeller did not hide it. She said very proudly, "My father is so
We do this for the sake of the health of the citizens of the United States."
"I believe it!" Sheffield absolutely believes in the professionalism of the Rockefeller family. Even if urine tests are started now, there will never be a drop of urine in the stimulants. There is absolutely no doubt about their professionalism.
Edith Rockefeller and Sheffield spent the whole day wandering around Chicago's industrial area, visiting many steel companies for inspection. In professional terms, in 1895, because the United States had not yet emerged from the economic depression, the steel industry's production capacity
There is a surplus and it is not very profitable. There are not many targets for capital injection and acquisition, and there are also many bosses who are willing to be acquired and cash out.
"I think the small steel plant just now is more in line with my standards. Let me find someone to evaluate it." After coming out of the industrial area, Sheffield recalled the steel plants he visited and had already set a target in his mind.
Edith Rockefeller chuckled and corrected her calmly, "Is that a steel mill with an annual output of one million tons? A small steel mill?"
"A million tons? Well, it is indeed a small steel plant!" Sheffield nodded solemnly after hearing this. According to the standards of the Republic, these are all objects that must be closed due to forced overcapacity reduction.
"Do all Texas children brag so seriously, or is it just you?" Edith Rockefeller smiled brightly.
