1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Morgan was still very punctual. The next morning after talking to Lu Chen, he hurried to the hotel where Lu Chen was staying.

When Lu Chen saw Morgan, he warmly welcomed him into the room. Then he said jokingly:

"Mr. Morgan, you really work hard to make money. You came here so early. I guess you didn't get much sleep last night."

Morgan also joked: "Brother Lu, if you have a plan, of course I will rush over here without stopping."

After Lu Chen and Morgan exchanged a few pleasantries, he instructed Hans:

"Hans, go and invite Mr. Aziz over and tell him that the person I arranged for him has arrived."

After that, he and Morgan entered the living room together. Morgan found a seat in the living room and sat down, then smiled and asked Lu Chen:

"Mr. Lu, since your friend wants a loan, could you introduce your friend to me, for example, which country he is representing?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "How can I be considered his friend? I'm just saying that. He is actually my client. Mr. Morgan, you know that in our industry, the client is king, so since he asked for a loan, I can only do my best to do what he says."

Morgan smiled and joked, "Brother Lu, you are involved in quite a lot of industries, including chemicals, textiles, military industry, medicine, security, and finance. You are almost done with all industries. How do I know which industry you are talking about?"

Lu Chen's face turned red after hearing this. He coughed awkwardly twice and said, "Mr. Morgan, my family has been engaged in textile business for generations. The others are all taken care of by my friends. I just messed around with it."

Morgan said, "Brother Lu, you are too modest. Your industries are all very promising. If you can succeed by just messing around, I think if other entrepreneurs knew about it, they would probably be ashamed to death."

Lu Chen had a bad feeling in his heart. Morgan knew him too well. Could he be targeting me? He asked Morgan, "Mr. Morgan, have I offended you in some way that you are praising me so much?"

Morgan waved his hand and said, "I'm not praising you too much. I am really optimistic about you. You are very talented and your industries are very promising. If there is a chance, I would still like to cooperate with you."

Damn, I was really targeted by this Morgan. He thought for a moment and said:

"Mr. Morgan, this is actually a great opportunity. How about we work together?"

Morgan smiled and said, "I also think this is a good opportunity, so I asked you, who are you targeting now?"

Lu Chen would not say that he was targeting Aziz. He said, "I didn't target him. This time, it was a client introduced to me by Mr. Dior. If anyone is targeting him, it's definitely not me."

"Oh, it's a client that Dio introduced to you. What did he introduce you to?"

Morgan asked curiously.

Lu Chen said, "Mr. Morgan, you should know that I have opened a new security company that specializes in finding jobs for veterans. This time, Mr. Dior asked me to provide security services for the client."

Morgan said, "Who did he introduce you to?"

Lu Chen looked at Morgan in surprise.

"Mr. Morgan, don't you know that he is the Apache who came to the United States to seek help some time ago."

Morgan was very puzzled and said: "What security issues does he have? Don't they have their own armed forces?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Mr. Morgan, don't you know that they are fighting the British now?"

Morgan looked at Lu Chen in surprise and said, "Are you going to help him fight?"

Lu Chen said: "That's pretty much what I mean."

Morgan said: "From what I understand, this force is very weak. They have no weapons and no money. What did they give you to make you help them like this?"

Lu Chen said: "Mr. Morgan, is there anything that Mr. Dio would care about?"

Morgan's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean they're going to take the oil out?"

Morgan shook his head again and said, "That's impossible. As far as I know, all their oil has been taken by the British. They don't have any oil."

Lu Chen said, "If we win the war and drive the British out, they will have oil, right? Besides, their territory is so large that there are more than a few places with oil."

"So this is your plan. Aren't you afraid that they will lose the war and all your investment will go down the drain?"

"Investment is risky. If we succeed this time, the Rockefeller family's oil empire will be global. This is definitely worth our gamble."

Although Lu Chen said this, he didn't really think so. He knew that Saudi Arabia would declare independence in 1932. Since they were already independent, how could they possibly be defeated in the war?

Morgan thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, why did you let him come to me to borrow money again?"

Lu Chen said, "The bulk of the profits from this cooperation with Aziz has already gone to Dio. I wanted to make some money from Aziz, but I don't have enough funds, so I wanted to bring you in, Mr. Morgan. Let's make some money together."

Morgan said, "What do you think?"

Lu Chen said, "Aren't Aziz and his men short of weapons and equipment? I plan to sell them some equipment."

Morgan's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What equipment are you going to sell him?"

Lu Chen said: "Britain is the most powerful country. If Aziz and his men want to defeat them, they must have planes. Otherwise, their ground forces will be used as live targets by British planes. Of course, they also need artillery. With artillery, a lot of casualties can be reduced."

Morgan swallowed and asked, "How many planes and artillery are you going to sell them?"

Lu Chen chuckled and said, "That depends on you, Mr. Morgan. The amount of money you lend him will determine the amount of weapons I will sell him."

"Are you sure?"

Lu Chen said, "Mr. Morgan, don't worry. I am sure I can exchange all the money you lent him for weapons."

Morgan thought for a moment and said, "Your plan is very tempting, but there are a few problems. What can I get from it? Also, how do we solve the issue of weapons?"

Lu Chen said, "I know that your Morgan family has lent a lot of money to the Weimar government of Germany. The current Weimar government has no money to pay you back. If I let Aziz buy weapons from Germany, or in other words, Mr. Morgan, let the Weimar government take out enough weapons to pay off the debt, and then sell these weapons to Aziz, do you think you will make a lot of interest for nothing?"

Morgan looked at Lu Chen suspiciously and asked, "What about you? All the benefits were given to me. What did you gain?"

Lu Chen said, "Mr. Morgan, you can't sell those weapons to me at the original price, right? You should at least give me an 8% discount!"

Morgan said, "That's impossible. The best I can give you is a 10% discount."

Lu Chen quickly said, "Deal."

Just when Lu Chen and Morgan had finished their talk, Hans came in with Aziz. Seeing Aziz coming, Lu Chen walked over enthusiastically. He took Aziz and walked in front of Morgan, introducing him:

"Mr. Aziz, this is the banker I found for you, Mr. Morgan. Let me tell you, Mr. Morgan's Morgan Bank is a famous bank in the United States."

Morgan stood up, shook hands with Aziz and said:

"Hello, Mr. Aziz."

Aziz also said, "Hello, Mr. Morgan."

After the two of them finished greeting each other, Lu Chen continued:

"Mr. Aziz, aren't you short of money? Go talk to Mr. Morgan about this matter. He can help you solve it."

Aziz looked at Lu Chen, then at Morgan, and asked in confusion: "Didn't your president say that I'm in an economic crisis and have no money now? Does your bank still have money to lend me?"

Morgan smiled and said, "What the President said is that the treasury has no money. It does not mean that our bank has no money."

Lu Chen also chimed in, "Mr. Aziz, you may not know that Mr. Morgan's family owns more than just a bank. They also control 90% of the railroads in the United States. Not only that, they are also shareholders of the largest steel group in the United States. Don't worry, they can't be without money."
