[092] Old Stanford Down
Lilan raised her eyelids, and the murky air came out of her turbid eyes: "Okay."
Just kidding, the giant wheelchair under your butt has already given people a strong sense of oppression. If we sit down again, our momentum will not fall to the bottom?
Long Hao smiled in his heart, turned to look at the scattered stools around him, and said directly: "I want to buy your Stanford University! This is written very clearly in that letter."
The news the housekeeper brought to Lilan was a letter that stated Long Hao's intention to acquire Stanford University, and Lilan was willing to meet, which means that there was some talks about this business.
Lilan was silent for a while, and the air seemed to be frozen in the empty room. After a long time, the old man spoke: "I need the reason, you have to convince me!"
Long Hao said: "I have money, and I am optimistic about the geographical location of Stanford University. In the end, I have the determination to develop it into a world-class university."
Lelan shook his head: "The reasons you said are correct, but... they are not enough to convince me! Young man, you must know that Stanford University represents my son, you want an old father
It is not enough to sell his son, just pay equal money and boastful talk!”
Long Hao thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Stanford, please forgive me! I have the time you don't have. Under my leadership, I can ensure that Stanford University is on the right track of development, and without me, when you
After death, Stanford may die in the dense forests of Palaatu.”
Lelan pulled the corner of his mouth: "Then you are just one of the choices! Besides, although I don't have a son, I have already chosen the manager for Stanford University."
Long Hao smiled and said, "Is that right? If you have confidence in the person you chose, you won't see me today, right? Do you know what Stanford University looks like now? It's like a nouveau riche wandering outside the Hall of Knowledge.
Although they were covered with gold and gems, they were driven away by the simple guardians of the Hall of Knowledge with a long halberd..."
Li Lan's facial muscles twitched, and Long Hao's words indeed touched the depths of his heart.
When he founded Stanford University, he thought that as long as he had money and land, the prospects of this university would be extremely brilliant and brilliant. However, the cruel reality told him that the desolate western United States is also a desert of science, and no professor would be willing to come to San Francisco.
No student is willing to be a 'shepherd' in the primeval forest-like Palaatu.
He, Lelan Stanford, may be very successful in industry, but he is a complete rookie in education.
Fortunately, Leland used to be the governor of California and had a wide range of political and financial connections. After several years of hard work, Stanford University finally recruited a group of scholars and students, and classes were about to start in two months.
Lelan felt that as long as he gave him another ten years, Stanford might not be able to compete with Yale or Harvard. However, Lelan felt that his life was very limited.
Lelan spoke with a hoarse voice: "Then... what can you do to get Stanford University into the holy temple of knowledge?"
Long Hao smiled confidently: "If you want to enter the Hall of Knowledge, you naturally need a pass for knowledge, and I carry this pass!"
The quantum physics theory article he asked Rong Shangqin to write has been sent out. The first stop for submission was the British Nature Magazine (founded in 1869), and the second stop was the American Science Magazine (founded in 1880) which was not long ago.
Founded).
Good news will be heard in at most a month.
Lilan stared at Long Hao for a long time, as if she wanted to turn her eyes into nails and nail them into Long Hao's heart; she also seemed to want to learn from the great master of Odin, and take them down in exchange for Runes
Wisdom!
"Hey, you can't prove it, and I can't see it either!" Lilan finally closed her eyes and sighed: "We won't talk about the Hall of Knowledge, let's talk about it more realistic!"
"Okay, talk about the truth."
"You know, I, Lelan, is a businessman. I see you today not for the sake of the princess next to you, but I know that the person who works with Andrew is you, the magical oriental boy!"
Andrew is Carnegie, and Lelan Stanford actually knew about Long Hao and Carnegie cooperation. It seems that this old man is definitely not as simple as living in seclusion.
After hearing this, Long Hao was surprised, but he was calm on the surface: "Mr. Stanford is very informed!"
Lelan pushed the huge wheelchair under her seat and moved back and forth in place. He smiled and said, "Although I am a person with half a foot, I still have some purpose in the western United States...Okay, let's do it.
The deal, I can sell Stanford University to you, but you have to give me half of the railway construction rights in Alaska!”
The railway construction rights in Alaska were booked by Carnegie. Leland Stanford actually wanted to seize food from the tiger's mouth and divide it half of it?
Long Hao said: "You are a big talk. I have already opened twice the value for Stanford University, but you still need half of the railway construction rights? Don't mention whether this right is governed by me.
, If I promise you, how should I explain to Mr. Carnegie?"
Lelan smiled a little sly and said, "Then I don't care. I don't want to sell Stanford University anyway."
Now Long Hao is in a hurry to buy Stanford University, so Lelan can ask for a sky-high price.
Next, it depends on how Long Hao pays back the money locally!
Long Hao used to touch his chin, turned to ask Melissa and others: "What do you think? Princess, you also have the right to decide on this matter. In principle, the railway construction rights in Alaska belong to Schmidt Mining Company!
”
Melissa blinked her bright eyes and said, "I don't think so! Alaska is about to become an independent state capital. The railway construction rights belong to the United States federal government and the Alaska capital. Schmidt Mining Company, owns the
All they are mining rights, and they have no right to speak for the construction of railways, right?"
Smart, worthy of being a smart princess in Bingxue. What is tacit understanding? This is called tacit understanding!
Long Hao was delighted, his eyebrows were twisted in a ball, and he spread his hands and said, "Mr. Stanford, did you hear it? The railway construction right does not belong to us!"
Li Lan's eyes were like the stars in the dark night, and suddenly flashed. He smiled and shook his head: "Don't act anymore. I've investigated. Without your permission, unless the federal government uses it.
The army, otherwise no railway company can enter Alaska! The legal gun guards you have are enough to stop the construction of the railway. If you don’t nod, no matter how much investment the railway company invests, it will fall into that cold ice lake.
Even the ice slag will not appear. Am I right, Chief Guard Long Hao?"
Long Hao clapped his hands: "You know so well, if I deny it, I will be dissatisfied! Then I sincerely say to you, Mr. Stanford, your requirements are too high, so why not give in to each of us, I will take part of the railway
I will give you the right to purchase accessories. I believe that the profit of this part will not be less than one million US dollars!”
The purchasing rights in hand means that it can attract countless accessories manufacturers. Using Lilan's means, it is extremely easy to make millions of dollars in profits on it.
The railway construction rights in Alaska must not be given up. This is Long Hao’s bottom line!
His and Carnegie’s target is Central Pacific, Leland is the former president of the railway company. He asked for the right to build, undoubtedly for Central Pacific. If agreed, this would be to provide the enemy who was fighting.
What is the difference between weapons? Long Hao is not that stupid yet.
Lilan smiled, tempting the million-dollar profit, and still shook her head: "No, I don't want any purchasing rights, what I want is...the railway construction rights!"
It is not worth destroying the relationship with Carnegie for a university! Long Hao sighed in his heart and turned around and wanted to leave: "I'm sorry, my sincerity has become a rejected bread at Mr. Stanford. I'm wrong with this trip.
, Your Highness, let’s go!"
Long Hao's head kept shaking and his breathing was not smooth. He did not expect that the acquisition, which he thought was easy to capture, was rejected by Lelan Stanford!
"Please wait a moment, Chief Long Hao!"
Just as Long Hao was about to leave the house, Lilan suddenly shouted: "I think we two need to talk alone!"
The huge wheelchair wheels creaked and crunched on the floor. Lelan pushed the wheelchair with both hands and chased after him with sincerity.
Long Hao turned around and looked at Lilan with a little surprise: "What else is there to talk about? The railway construction rights, I will reiterate it again, I can't give it to you!"
A playful smile appeared on Lilan's face: "I don't want any right to build. I suddenly felt that you have a bottom line in life. Stanford University gave you the helm, which may be a very good choice!"
Long Hao followed Lilan's giant wheelchair and came to a study room.
The study room is not big, but the decoration is luxurious and warm, with bright light and warm heart. It is a world of difference from the dark atmosphere of Odin Temple before!
There were only Long Hao and Li Lan in the study. Li Lan pressed some mechanism and two cups of steaming fragrant coffee rose from under the wide desk.
Chapter completed!
