Not forgotten!

But something big happened!

It's not that Elizabeth and Maria were pregnant one after another, nor was it that after Liu Kunpeng sold the ten "iron-armored ships" to the Kingdom of Heaven, Mr. Li willingly paid one million taels of silver to buy the iron-armored ships. As for whether he can buy them, it all depends on Zhu Xianhai's mood.

.

These things are not big things. What is the real big thing?

Buffett is being targeted!

"what is going on?"

Zhu Xianhai's brows knitted together as he looked at Buffett's telegram and murmured in his heart. His telegram only contained a few simple sentences.

"The money has been received and someone has taken care of it!"

The money has been received.

The meaning of this sentence is that Britain and France successively invested huge sums of money to purchase the shares of the Atlantic Telegraph Company. A small goal was reached, even if it was francs... the francs in these days were extremely valuable.

What does it mean to have someone weigh it down?

Who dares to consider our small goal? I wonder if that money will be of great use?

Zhu Xianhai murmured in his heart.

"This is true of Buffett. Didn't you know that the telegraph company belongs to our family? You won't die if you take a few more words!"

After thinking about it, he gave instructions.

"Reply the telegram to Buffett with just one word "?"."

Although the telegram was sent, Zhu Xianhai still felt a little uneasy and wondered whether to send some bodyguards there, but Buffett also has bodyguards!

Besides, with his current identity and status, how could anyone be targeting him?



In fact, Buffett is also very depressed!

Once again, he was stopped at the door of the hotel. It was none other than Count Philippe von Bruneau, who was leading the Russian delegation to the London World Expo.

"Mr. Brino, we meet again!"

Standing in front of Buffett, Count Philippe von Bruneau looked like he had just left the house.

"You live here too?"

Buffett glanced at the room behind the Earl. He didn't live in the embassy, ​​so why did he squeeze into the hotel?

"Yes, isn't it a coincidence?"

Looking at Buffett with a smile, Count Philip von Bruno said.

"It's time for afternoon tea now. Mr. Brino is going to have afternoon tea. We can go there together."

What is dog skin plaster?

Buffett didn't know what this sentence meant in the past. Now, two days ago, after meeting Count Philippe von Bruneau at the expo, he finally knew what it meant.

This guy is a dog-skin plaster type!

His originally good mood became a little uncomfortable due to the appearance of Count Bruno. He never expected that one day he would be blocked by a Russian count.

Russia? What the hell does it have to do with him?

Where is Russia?

Of course Buffett knows that Russia is there, but he really doesn't want to have anything to do with Russia, especially the suggestions made by the other party.

"Mr. Brino, how have you considered the suggestion I made last time?"

Once again, on the lawn of the hotel, tasting the snacks provided by the hotel, Count Philippe von Bruno smiled.

"You have to know that this business is definitely a very cost-effective business for the American Company. God can testify that it will only take ten years at most for you to recover all your investment!"

Even though he is a count, when facing Mr. Buffett Bruneau, Count Philippe von Bruneau's words are full of compliments. Otherwise, this guy is rich!

It’s not that this guy is rich, it’s the American company behind him that is rich!

As the head of the Russian delegation, Count Philipp von Bruno heard of his name as soon as he arrived in London.

One hundred million francs!

Britain and France paid 100 million francs to the American Company to acquire 50% of the shares of the Atlantic Telegraph Company.

That's 100 million francs in cash.

Not to mention that company, even a country may not be able to withdraw so much cash at once!

This is definitely a company that is extremely wealthy!

While marveling at the company's incredible wealth, Count Philippe von Bruno couldn't help but have another thought in his mind. He discovered that this American company was simply a "trading partner" that came to his door.

!

They are the owners of 100 million francs!

Really rich!

Rich!

Things will be easier if you have money!

Just trick them into agreeing.

So, he immediately took the initiative to visit the famous Mr. Buffett Brino. He never thought that as soon as he proposed the "business proposal", the other party rejected it outright and even looked at him as a fool.

Looking at him with that look, that look.

Well, just like now.

The tea cup was held in mid-air. Buffett looked at Count Philippe von Bruno as if he were a fool. At this moment, the milk tea in the cup was no longer fragrant. Even his mood became worse.

For a moment, he even wanted to roar.

"Hey, you bastard, this is Britain. Do you know that I am friends with the Prime Minister of Britain and a guest of the French Emperor? You, a little Russian count, still want to bully others?"

Buffett could have yelled out and not give Count Philippe von Bruneau any face. After all, a few years ago, Russia was defeated by the British and French forces in Crimea. Not only did Russia lose its armor and armor, but the boss's empire was also destroyed.

Even their trousers were exposed. Even their tsar unexpectedly died of a "stroke" not long after.

Whether it was a "stroke" or not, Buffett didn't know, but one thing is certain, if this country loses the war, people will definitely die, either the generals and marshals will die, or the tsar will have a stroke.

But Buffett is a businessman, he doesn’t want to offend others, he just wants to make money by being friendly!

"Dear Earl."

After a pause, Buffett said.

"You should know that for businessmen, we need to consider the rate of return for any investment we make. To be honest with your proposal, I have not seen any rate of return. The investment will be recovered in ten years..."

After sizing up Count Philippe von Bruno, Buffett's eyes were filled with contempt.

Do you think I'm a fool?

Believe it to yourself, there isn't even a single punctuation mark in what you said.

"If the profit is really so high in ten years, why would you find me? Lord Earl, America Company is rich, but you must know that for a commercial company, any investment we make

, they all have to follow one principle – to be profitable!”

After thinking about it, Buffett emphasized again.

"I think even if it were you, you wouldn't do business at a loss!"
