The father and son were silent for a while, but the father sighed and broke the deadlock first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Tell me the real reason why you hate him." Junius. Morgan slowed his tone and said to his son.

"The Qianguo people have many prejudices and vices, such as they can use any animal as food, they are cunning and slippery, and they don't pay attention to morality and credit, I think you know all of this, so I don't need to repeat them." Pierponte. Morgan replied, "The important thing is that the Qianguo people have no faith, and Lin Yiqing may be different from ordinary Qianguo people, but he is the same as his compatriots in his bones." He could not have been a friend of Christendom. ”

"I never knew that you had such a big prejudice against the Qianguo people." Junius. Morgan looked at his son in surprise.

"It's not a bias, it's a common opinion of a lot of people." Pierponte. Morgan replied.

"It is true that he is a Qianguo person, but he is a great Qianguo person." Junius. Morgan looked at his son and said in a deep voice, "I just want to make one thing clear, and that is that the Rothchild family can take a fancy to him, which proves that he is extraordinary." Just as the Rothchild family fancy us. ”

Hearing his father's words, Morgan raised his head suddenly, and a pair of eyes radiated a compelling light.

"I don't think we can rely on the Rothschild forever."

"That's what you really think, I see." Junius. Morgan stared at his son closely, his face became very ugly, "But I still have to remind you, don't be delusional to be an enemy of the Rothchild family, not now, not in the future, you think you are very powerful, but your strength, the Rothchild family can be easily crushed." Therefore, for the sake of our family, for the sake of you, I also want to stop you from such arrogant thoughts, which I will never allow to happen in my lifetime. ”

Pierponte. The first time Morgan saw his father's terrible eyes, he finally cringed.

"Okay, I'm not going to get you in trouble, don't worry."

"You've got me in trouble." Junius. Morgan's voice was still very stern, "The invitation to the state dinner sent to you by the President of the United States, and you have made an excuse not to go, has had a very unnecessary bad influence between us and Mr. Cleveland and His Excellency Earl Lin Yat Ching, and you must eliminate this influence." ”

"I understand."

"Have you figured out how to eliminate it?"

"I will hold a banquet on board the 'Corsairs' and invite Mr. President and Mr. Lin Yat-ching to the banquet. I will explain and apologize to them at the banquet. ”

"Okay, that's it, you can do it."

Although Pierpont. Morgan's career is closely related to railroads, but he is even more attracted by the vast ocean. At one time, owning a private compartment on a train was a popular practice among tycoons; However, Pierpont never had a carriage. If necessary, he would take a private car on a railway under his control. As he entered middle age, the sea became a panacea for his depression. On the vast blue waves, he can stay away from the fetters of official duties that day after day, and free himself from endless worries. So, when yachting became a popular darling of New York's wealthy families in the 80s, he almost didn't hesitate to join this new trend. In 9082, he purchased a luxury yacht, the first in a series of luxury yachts he bought, and named it the "Corsair". He then joined the New York Yacht Club. At 165 feet, the black-hulled steam yacht was runner-up among club yachts and marked the Morgan family's new grandeur.

Pierponte. Morgan bought the Corsair at the time of the first apparent rift in his marriage, and it's hard to say that it was just a coincidence. The ship is much more than just a show-off ornament. It gave Morgan a social environment outside of Fanny and the children's circle. Since then, it has become an integral part of many secret pleasure-seeking love stories. The Pirate freed him from the suffocating Victorian air of his early married life and enjoyed an unfettered freedom. There, he made a group of friends and formed what came to be known as the "Pirate Club". These friends were able to contribute to the work of Pierpont. Morgan brings the women aboard to provide cover. At the same time, the boat was his second home, especially when Fanny and the children returned to Cleggton on the upper Hudson River in the middle of summer. Pierpont usually had dinner on board and moored in Manhattan Harbor, where he spent the long night.

Buy the "Corsair" with Pierpont. It was a coincidence that Morgan had entered a new phase in his career. At this time, he began to act as an arbiter and financier between railway companies. The yacht became a place to settle disputes, and a secret club where spies could not spy on information. Pierpont had a genius for an actor and excelled at creating a dramatic backdrop for his feats. The "Corsair" just added a layer of operatic grandeur to his merchant career.

Pierponte. Morgan had heard of Lin Yiqing's luxurious life, and also understood how European royal families entertained Lin Yiqing, so he decided to hold a grand banquet on the "Corsair" to invite Lin Yiqing and invite the American financial tycoons to the banquet.

Pierponte. Morgan has reason to believe that he will impress Lin Yiqing.

At the end of the conversation with his father, Pierponte. Morgan returned to his room and called a cronie: "Find out about the itinerary of that Qianguo man Lin Yiqing, where is he now?" ”

The cronies took the order and left, and soon he returned.

"Mr. Lin Yiqing has already arrived in New York, and I heard that he is going to visit Tesla's laboratory, where Tesla will prepare a grand performance for him, and many people will come to watch." The cronies reported his findings to Morgan.

As soon as he heard Tesla's name, Morgan's brow immediately furrowed.
