[036] The Ford family
Long Hao added: "With Hist joining the laboratory, the direction of the next three years will be to develop special drugs to treat opium addiction. By the way, don't give up completely on the research on whitening agents... Adolf, you should shoulder the responsibility."
The task is very heavy. Not only do you have to lead the research of this new project, but you also have to introduce a group of high-quality, sophisticated and top-notch talents for us!"
Heist patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Master Long. The experimental environment here is so good, the salary is high, and we can realize our ideals. I have sent telegrams to many friends. I believe they will deal with it immediately after hearing this."
I took the nearest train to catch my luggage!"
Indeed, it is not that there was no talent in the United States in 1890, but businessmen have not yet realized the importance of scientific and technological talents. In other words, they have realized the importance of scientific and technological talents, and they have no time and energy to recruit and reserve them!
What is the most profitable thing now? Not hoarding talents, but mining, building oil wells, building railways, manufacturing arms, and shipping to dump goods to the colonies! Besides, even if you want to hoard talents, talents from Europe will be given priority, and talents from the United States will be given priority?
It was really ignored!
Didn’t you see that Hist, a genuine graduate of Harvard University, ended up working as a private doctor to make a living? And according to Hist, his situation is still preferred among many classmates and friends!
In this way, Long Hao smacked his lips and his eyes flashed with gold. How could he let go of searching for these basic research talents?
Searching now is like giving timely help, with low cost and huge profits!
After the meeting dispersed, Long Hao said: "Sentas, Schmidt, Heist, you three stay, I have something to tell you alone!"
The door of the conference room was closed, and only three people, including Long Hao, Cui Yuanlang and Schmidt, were left.
Long Hao sat in the chair, playing with the Winchester with one hand and holding a glass of coconut milk juice in the other hand. "I'm going back to Alaska soon. I'll tell you things one by one. I hope you can do it for me."
good!"
Long Hao took a sip of coconut milk and frowned slightly: too little sugar!
"Histe, you just said that you had been at West Point Military Academy, so let me ask you, is it easy to get into West Point? For example, do you think I, a personal bodyguard... can get in?" Put down the astringent coconut milk.
, Long Hao turned his pistol coolly and pointed it at Cui Yuanlang.
Cui Yuanlang turned to one side and calmly avoided the muzzle of the gun: Master, be careful of misfire!
"Well..." Heist thought about Long Hao's question seriously, and after a while he answered: "With Commander Cui's physical fitness, he can definitely go to West Point Military Academy, but his nationality, and his English...
…”
Hist knew the strength of Cui Yuanlang's field regiment, but their status was really shabby. It was not that easy for fugitives from the Qing Dynasty to enter West Point!
"Just write Qing as your nationality. I can ask Princess Melissa to vouch for them. As for English, Hester, if you give them sudden tutoring for one to two weeks, there should be no big problem!" Long Hao pulled out the revolver and huffed.
He turned around and said with a smile: "If it doesn't work out, just spend some money and buy a loan student. Anyway, as long as you can fit people into the West Point, you have the final say on all arrangements!"
During the conversation, Long Hao increased the number of places he planned to enroll in West Point Military Academy to include the entire field regiment.
Hester thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "Since it is Master Long's order, I will try my best to do it! With the princess's guarantee signature and money... nationality and identity are not issues, it is mainly an English theory test, I
I think some people will be stuck!”
No matter how hard you plan, West Point’s entrance exam is always unavoidable! After all, West Point will no longer be famous, and it will not be the pheasant school that will be prevalent in the United States in future generations!
Long Hao said: "If a part is stuck, a part will be stuck. I don't expect the field regiment to be able to get in all at once!" Then he turned to Cui Yuanlang and said: "Tell your brother, those who can get in will be officers when they come out.
Those who can't get in, study hard and prepare for the next exam! If you can't do it in one phase, you can do it in two phases, if you can't do it in two phases, you can do three phases... Humph, if I go to New York and find that there are still people who have never entered West Point, then
Sorry, go back to Alaska to mine!"
"Yes!" Cui Yuanlang had beads of sweat on his forehead.
Long Hao was talking about his soldiers on the surface, but if Commander Cui, his regiment commander, could not get into West Point Military Academy, then Long Hao would definitely treat everyone equally, remove him from his position as regiment commander, and punish him to stay in the mines!
After the arrangements were made, Long Hao handed Cui Yuanlang an envelope, then waved his hand to let him and Xister go out first.
Long Hao's strong request for Cui Yuanlang and others to enter West Point Military Academy was definitely not a whim, but a consideration and a reason!
To be honest, with confidants like Zhou Bodang and Cui Yuanlang, Long Hao is not worried about their loyalty or their skills, but is worried about their military quality! If Cui Yuanlang is a bodyguard, Long Hao feels that they are
100% qualified, but if it involves complex, changeable, and systematic special operations, Long Hao will be a little worried!
The best non-commissioned officers in the world come from Germany, but currently they are still far away from Long Hao. Thinking about the future of West Point and its strict academic style, it is more appropriate to send Cui Yuanlang and the others there for 'further study'!
Of course, further study is only one of Long Hao's purposes. Another purpose is that he hopes Cui Yuanlang can carry out actual combat operations on the east coast of the United States!
It is now 1890. Compared with the rough and treacherous Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean is extremely dull. Cui Yuanlang staying by his side will only be a waste of time. It is better to go to the East to study and practice in actual combat!
Real elite soldiers and generals have always grown up in the rain of bullets and blood!
The letter Long Hao handed to Cui Yuanlang wrote this line: "Set up a security company, recruit reliable members, bodyguards, assassinations, commercial espionage, you can boldly do all these things!"
"Schmidt, you are going back to Alaska with me this time!" Only Schmidt and Liebig were left. Long Hao smiled and handed the Jewish doctor an envelope.
"Okay, as you wish!" Schmidt responded, muttering in his heart: Master Long, when did you fall in love with using envelopes to deliver messages? Oh...could it be a secret?
To be honest, Schmidt has had a pretty good time in Portland over the past month. Not only can he take care of the chemical plant, and watch penicillin gradually become a drug that is popular around the world (both he and Liebig are confident about this), but also
Portland can be considered a big city, with newspapers, radios, bars, and many things you can’t buy in Guangming Village!
To be honest, he was really reluctant to go back with Long Hao.
However, under Long Hao's smile that seemed to see people's hearts, Schmidt opened the envelope, glanced at it twice, and jumped up like a bear that had been stabbed in the anus: "Oh my God, my almighty Lord! You
, are you finally setting up a mining company?”
The mining company was the first thing that Long Hao threw to Schmidt. However, as time went by, when Schmidt thought that this picture had really become a thing of the past, Long Hao actually brought up the old thing again! And from then on
From the information revealed on the letter, Schmidt believed that Master Long was serious this time!
"Established 'Schmidt Mining Company'? The parent company is O&M? The registered capital is US$5 million?..." The design on the letter paper made Schmidt's fingers tremble and he was also stunned.
There is no problem in calling it Schmidt Mining Company! Although it is named after Schmidt, after the company is established, the real shares are still nine in Long Hao and one in Schmidt. This is an iron rule and there is no possibility of negotiation.
The parent company is O&M, and Schmidt has no objection. Anyway, he has figured out that Master Long and the beautiful Spanish princess must have an affair. If anything happens now, he will use the Spanish royal family's tiger skin to scare people.
!
The key point is...the registered capital is US$5 million? Where does so much money come from?
Even if you include the $2.51 million that was used to "blackmail" Carnegie, the gap here is still huge!
Long Hao smiled slightly: "Dear Schmidt, who said that all 5 million will come from us? As a Jew, don't you know that there is a word in this world called...financing?"
Financing! Find bank financing! And find...Jewish bank financing!
"Is it possible?" Schmidt felt guilty at the thought of borrowing more than $3 million.
"Of course it can be done, don't you have a parchment?" Long Hao smiled, like an invitation from Satan.
Chapter completed!
