When Oliver left the New Haven hotel, the sunset had already ended. The whale oil in the street lampshade emitted the unpleasant smell of animal oil burning, and sparked from time to time.

A slight cool breeze blew, and Oliver, who was facing the wind, wrapped his clothes tightly.

The expression on his face was far less "lively" than when facing Doug. As he walked, he showed a thoughtful expression with his brows locked and thoughtful.

Oliver Winchester's past is far more complicated than Doug knows.

He was the sixth generation descendant of John Winchester, and John Winchester arrived in the "Bravebreaker of the New World" in America in 1636.

Oliver Winchester, who has such bloodline, should have been lying on the credit book and eating the shade of his ancestors.

Unfortunately, when he was young, his father died unexpectedly and his family property was taken over by his father's brothers. He and his mother and brother had to make a living.

Therefore, he worked as a gunsmith apprentice, worked as a shoemaker, and worked as a garment worker for a long time.

Years of wandering have made him different from the American residents who live a stable life. He is not like those who live in a stable life, but feels that cities besides living, and are unfamiliar with other cities that are even close to you.

He has a broader vision. When he made ready-to-wear shirts, he once had an ambition. That is, if every man in the United States needs two shirts a year, the shirt sales market in a year would be as high as more than 20 million.

Even if he can only own a percentage of the market, he can still sell 100,000 shirts in ten years.

Unfortunately, the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is not.

Although the railway continues to expand its body like a giant steel beast, most of the cities and towns in the United States have not been connected by the railway.

The unconnected part is like an isolated island, living a self-sufficient life.

The shirt factory that Oliver established in New Haven can only be sold to New England.

This is the most fierce competition in industrial products.

And he is engaged in light industry with the lowest threshold.

The first failure in entrepreneurship taught him a lesson.

He took the remaining sales of the garment factory and targeted the weapons manufacturing industry and founded the New Haven Weapons Company.

Although he had been an apprentice of a gunsmith for a year, this did not play a big role in his production of weapons.

Since the inventor Eli Whinet started the era of standardized large-scale production of guns driven by water conservancy, mass-produced standardized guns have replaced hand-made gunsmiths with craftsman spirit and "unique and high-quality" gunsmiths.

In fact, what really benefits Oliver is his management experience, how to prevent workers from being lazy, how to produce as many guns as possible under limited material costs, time costs and labor costs.

All this went smoothly, and the problem he encountered was that the guns and shirts were different, and they were not essentials.

The firearms he produced were not common with the mainstream firearm parts on the market because they had to bypass the patents of other companies, resulting in unsalable sales.

Yes, he fell twice in the same place from commodity to currency.

And his encounter with Doug was really a coincidence?

When Oliver first saw the tabletop game "Monopoly", he felt that such a useless thing actually made Yale students obsessed with it.

The next series of marketing in New Haven city made him realize that although the Monopoly product is not necessary, the people who operate him are very capable.

He discovered Doug's daily routine, at a suitable time and place, and he met Doug at the right time.

He originally just wanted to gain Doug's publicity ability and get some investment.

It was a complete accident to get Doug to invest in his own company.

When Doug was about to leave, he thought a lot and confirmed that Doug would not pose a substantial threat to his company and that the benefits he could bring to him were large enough. Then he called Doug, who was pretending to leave, and accepted the offer to invest.

The reason why he judged that Doug would not threaten him was also very simple.

In his opinion, Doug was a complete speculator.

Speculators can certainly gain huge benefits, but the same huge risks can also make them easily go bankrupt.

In Oliver's understanding, Doug Clayden didn't even have a cent of his personal wealth.

All the funds he owns come from Black Hawk Bank's loans.

This made his risk index soar even faster.

Doug's promotional methods for New Haven Weapons' products come from the rust-free alloy formula he mastered.

In the end, the two became people with common interests.

In his opinion, Doug was just a child, a child with some cleverness and luck.

The battle between the cunning little fox and the experienced hunter will definitely belong to him, the old hunter.

After Oliver Winchester left, Doug and McGill were the only ones left in Doug's room.

Doug once again wrote down the imperfect stainless steel formula and said to McGill, "This formula will also help me apply for a patent as soon as possible."

"Yes, boss." McGill responded, and after his men's recipe, he asked, "Boss, do you think this Oliver is unreliable?"

Doug rubbed his temples and said, "Of course it's not reliable. His acting skills are so stupid that he treats me as a fool."

"Then why do you still have to invest in his company?" McGill continued to ask in an attempt. After working for Doug these days, he discovered many differences in his current small boss and couldn't help but want to learn more.

"Reliable? How many reliable people are there? The United States is very big, and they are all for profit." Doug opened his hand, blocked the light, and sighed as he looked at the light leaking from his fingers.

McGill stopped hearing this and stopped asking.

When McGill left, Doug called waiter Madison and ordered, "Help me investigate Oliver Winchester's past and don't let him discover it."

"Yes!" Madison replied with some excitement.

The moment he heard Doug's order, he knew that his hard work in collecting intelligence was not in vain. Master Doug really needed a pair of brighter eyes and clearer ears.

Doug took out a few pieces of money and handed them to Madison, "the activity funding."

"Make sure to complete the task! Your bath water is ready!"

Madison was out of the room and poured warm water on his head. Doug began to sort out the people he had contacted this day and worked hard to build a network of characters.

In a small city like New Haven, all kinds of people who seem to be unrelated are often not unrelated.

A single hair moves the whole body.
