Wearing bird feathers, long black hair, Indian style leather clothes and pants, Indian soldiers with fierce faces, escorted a dozen wagons loaded with goods from Missouri to New York.
It took Chen Mo only ten minutes to fly in a steel battle suit, but they walked for nearly ten days.
On the way, no one thought of them, but faced with Indian soldiers with better weapons and better fighting consciousness than the army, they successfully arrived at New York after killing several groups of armed groups that were despised by the Indians.
When they first entered new York, this special team also caused a stir. Fortunately, they went directly to the middle part of Manhattan belonging to chenmo. Only the people in chenmo farm saw it. Otherwise, it was estimated that even the police would be alarmed. After all, the presence of a fully armed Indian in the City would cause quite a stir.
In this way, the news of the Indian team spread quickly to New York, and John Jacob Astor finally knew who was doing the right thing with him!
But now he is also gradually unable to see Chen mo.
At first, the Chinese rich man was ridiculed by them in a large number of enclosure in the remote northern suburb of New York City. But with Brooklyn being taken by him, he has become the largest landlord around New York City. Although it is only some suburban land, it has also aroused many people's murmurs.
However, no matter what they think, they can't guess Chen Mo's intention. These lands can't be developed for decades. What's the point of buying them at this time? Instead of changing the money into these remote lands that haven't got much profit for a long time, it's better to invest the money in the real estate and financial fields of the city. As long as the operation is good, it can be multiplied several times quickly 。
But no one scolds him for being an idiot. Anyway, these assets are real. Even if he doesn't do anything, doesn't carry out any business operation, and just keeps these lands, his assets have surpassed most people in New York.
When someone who is almost or even less than you does something you don't understand, people will laugh at him. When someone who is much better than you does the same thing, no one will laugh.
However, compared with Chen Mo's intention of buying these remote lands, John Jacob Astor was more curious about how he subdued the rebellious Indian tribes. Even if he had operated in Missouri for so many years, he only monopolized the trade with the Indians, so that they could only trade with him, be oppressed and exploited by him, but wanted to collect It is impossible for them to obey and command them to do things for themselves.
He didn't even dare to exchange firearms and other weapons with these Indians. He was afraid that they would resist him and threaten his rule in Missouri.
But Chen Mo, a seemingly conservative and short-sighted Chinese rich man who only knew how to hoard land blindly, was able to accept them and take these arrogant Indians for his own use, breaking his monopoly in Missouri, which made John Jacob Astor look at Chen Mo with a high eye. It seems that this Chinese rich man is not as simple as they think!
But he will not give up like this!
How about accepting the Indian tribes? These savage and backward Indians are just talking beasts. They are not even citizens of the United States. They are not protected by law. Even if they are all killed, there is no problem.
If it wasn't for these wild people who are good at hunting to provide him with precious fur, he would have used his powerful armed forces to kill all these wild people who are not obedient.
Compared with the armed men of American fur company who have advanced firearms, the Indians who still use bows and spears as weapons, although they have higher fighting quality and are more fearless of death, are in an absolute disadvantage in firepower. They are not the opponents of these armed men at all.
Even if these native Indians who were accepted by Chen Mo had guns, how could they go out of the forest? John Jacob Astor had some ways to deal with them. What he cared more about was Chen Mo!
Before, he didn't know who was fighting for control of Missouri, so he had been passive. Now that he knew that Chen Mo was fighting against him, John Jacob Astor didn't worry.
If Chen Mo has been hiding behind the scenes, carefully hiding himself, not so loudly let the Indians transport fur to his land, John Jacob Astor is also very difficult to find him, and there is no way to take him.
It's a pity that the rich Chinese don't know whether they are arrogant or really have no brains. They exposed themselves so easily.
It's easy to find the main thing. The armed men in the Missouri forest are not Chen Mo's men or the opponents of the native Indians who have guns. They can't help themselves. They can only let them develop. At most, they can only shrink their strength and increase the number of people in each acquisition team.
But in New York, the base camp he has run for decades, it's not easy to deal with Chen Mo, an outsider without any foundation!
In recent years, he has left Missouri's business to his subordinates, but he has been staying in New York, developing in real estate, finance, mining, industry and other fields. It seems that he has long forgotten his barbarism and ferocity, pretending to be a civilized businessman. For the time being, he does not intend to use Chen Mo's strength, but intends to use his best "business" Means "to deal with Chen Mo, the outsider, is also a good way to show that he is the richest man in the United States!After a lot of investigation, Chen Mo's actions after coming to New York were basically clear to him. When he learned that Chen Mo hired top talents in various industries with high salary and set up a private team to manage business affairs for him, John Jacob Astor sneered.
"The local baozi from Huaxia has some brains. They know how to hire professionals to serve themselves."
Raised his right hand, put the big Cuban cigar between his fingers into his mouth and took a sip. John Jacob Astor slowly spewed out a puff of smoke, and said scornfully.
"But this is America, America where money is the most important! Fight me, you're a little tender! "
John Jacob Astor found out that there was a fatal flaw in Chen Mo's body, which was the private business team.
All of Chen Mo's business activities, whether buying land or selling fur, are through this team. Once this team turns around, Chen Mo will become nothing in an instant!
