Everyone has their own value, especially for someone like Hamilton Fish who has been Secretary of State.

In the nineteenth century enterprises, only Junma Group spent all their money on a "outdated" former secretary of state. The salary offered to Hamilton Fish even reached the level of 100,000 US dollars every year, which is nearly 60 times the salary Hamilton Fish received during the Secretary of State. Perhaps other entrepreneurs, such as Rockefeller, also realized the value of Hamilton Fish, but only Li Mu would be so sure. This is a good thing for Hamilton Fish, and it will give Junma Group more conveniences. Even when Li Mu and Hayes' own opinions conflict, William Evatt will subconsciously take care of Li Mu and Junma Group.

This is enough.

Although he has stepped down as Secretary of State, Hamilton Fish still has enough influence, so that that night, Hamilton Fish invited John Vanderbilt to have dinner at the Clinton Castle Hotel.

Since the news of Coneyliers Vanderbilt's critical illness came out three months ago, William Vanderbilt has been confined and devoted all his energy to dealing with his brothers and sisters. The Vanderbilt family business has taken a back seat.

What is certain is that Vanderbilt's brothers and sisters are not a good thing. They may not be able to develop their businesses, and they may not even be able to defend the current situation. However, if they are allowed to compete for the legacy, they will definitely be able to cause trouble for William Vanderbilt. Compared with William Vanderbilt three months ago, William Vanderbilt is much more haggard, and his hair is beginning to turn gray. People in their thirties look like they are in their fifties.

What makes people feel inconsistent is that although William Vanderbilt is not in good spirits, his eyes are sharper, and his whole body looks like an unhealthy pathological disease.

"The mushroom soup here is very good, especially in the current situation. It is really unimaginable where they got fresh mushrooms." William Vanderbilt praised the mushroom soup at the Castle Clinton Hotel, which is also the signature dish of the Castle Clinton Hotel. It uses fresh mushrooms from Harriman National Park, carefully cooked by senior chefs from Qing Dynasty. Everyone who has drunk this soup is obsessed with its deliciousness.

The snow disaster did not affect the operation of the Clinton Castle Hotel. Although the external transportation in New York City has been completely cut off, it seems that all this does not exist for the Clinton Castle Hotel. The mushroom soup is still delicious, and the music in the restaurant is still melodious, as if everything is the same as before.

"As long as the price is high enough, there will always be people taking risks. Many times the risks and gains are not proportional to the gains. The goal of our efforts is to try to narrow this gap-" Hamilton Fisher talked, like other people in their sixties, they always say something seemingly irrelevant, but if you savor it carefully, you will find that it is their life experience.

"Yes, you should get as much as you pay. All attempts to get something for nothing should be as despicable as theft." William Vanderbilt was easily aroused of sad things, and for a moment he gritted his teeth.

"Is Mr. Conneils' health okay? I hope God bless him. Conneils is a good man and a great man. You don't know how sad I was when I heard that Mr. Conneils was critically ill. This damn snow disaster. I really hope Mr. Conneils can survive this." Hamilton Fish asked about Conneils Vanderbilt's condition. Because of work, Hamilton Fish and Conneils Vanderbilt were also old acquaintances, so this is not a presumptuous.

"Thank you for remembering him, but unfortunately he is not in good health. The doctor has issued three critical illness notices. Maybe he will be summoned by the Lord at any time." William Vanderbilt's expression was sad. Although at present, Coneyliers was William Vanderbilt's biggest stumbling block, William Vanderbilt could still remain calm in front of Hamilton Fish.

The topic was a bit heavy, and fortunately, Robinson, the chef of the Clinton Castle Hotel, came to deliver the meal in person, which immediately cheered up William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish.

There are not many opportunities for the chef to deliver food in person. Generally, only important guests will come to eat will come in person. William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish must have enough identities, so the appearance of the chef is not surprising.

"I'm very sorry, today's soup may not be fresh enough compared to the previous ones. The staff we sent out to pick mushrooms yesterday did not return on time, so we used mushrooms from Woodbridge. This may have a little impact on the taste. I hope you don't mind." Robinson was humble and was accompanied by a standard 90-degree bow when he spoke. Don't think Robinson is Japanese. In fact, it's not. Robinson is a standard Chinese. It's just because his surname is Lu, so he is called Robinson.

The wine and meat are smelly, and the road is frozen to death, and it is true that Robinson said inadvertently revealed a fact in his words. Even during the snow disaster, the Clinton Castle Hotel would send people to Harriman National Park to pick mushrooms. Considering the current weather, being unable to return on time basically means death. Unfortunately, this does not seem to affect the appetite of William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish.

"It's good to drink soup, and you can't ask for more. Thank God for giving us delicious food. We should pray for those poor people. This damn life is really unfair." Hamilton Fish still noticed this problem, but it did not affect Hamilton Fish's mood. When he was in the position of Secretary of State, Hamilton Fish learned too many similar incidents. If every time Hamilton Fish had to pray, then Hamilton Fish would rather be a priest, and he would stay in the church for the rest of his life.

The snow disaster still had an impact on the business of the Clinton Castle Hotel. In the past, if you want to dine at the Clinton Castle Hotel, you need to book in advance, otherwise you will definitely encounter a problem. Today, there are only a few tables of guests in the entire restaurant, including William Vanderbilt, Hamilton Fish and their entourage occupying three tables, and in addition, there are only two tables of guests, and the closest guests to William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish are also ten meters away.

"To express the apology from the restaurant, today's mushroom soup is free. I hope you both have a happy meal." Robinson didn't stay for too long and immediately gave up after a polite apology. This is also the purpose of the Clinton Castle Hotel. No matter under any circumstances, it cannot disturb guests' dining.

"What do you want to do next? I think you already have a way to deal with those who are ill-behaved?" Hamilton Fish trusted William Vanderbilt's ability and blamed William Vanderbilt's brothers and sisters for being weak, and almost no one could pose a threat to William Vanderbilt.

"What can I do? Although I am ready for it, I still didn't expect that the day would come back so quickly, and everything depends on God's will. If God wants someone to become the new helmsman of the Vanderbilt family, then I have no objection." William Vanderbilt said lightly, but his expression betrayed him. God, William Vanderbilt would not accept anyone except himself.

"The Vanderbilt family is one of the largest companies in the United States at present. We all hope that the Vanderbilt family can reshape their glory under the leadership of someone. If there is a problem with the choice of heirs, then it will be a disaster for both the United States and the Vanderbilt family." Hamilton Fisher said whatever William Vanderbilt said, and he kept talking on his own, and his words were full of provocation.

Yes, don't talk nonsense, I know what kind of person you are, so don't act in front of me, I will keep staring at you.

This is hard to answer, and William Vanderbilt simply refused to speak and devoted himself to dealing with the mushroom soup in front of him.

The obvious fact is that if Coneyliers Vanderbilt left a will, the will would be the final judgment of the patriarch of the Vanderbilt family, but if Coneyliers Vanderbilt did not leave a will, it would be nice. Whoever can get it then depends on God's will.

Considering the illness history of Cornelius Vanderbilt, it seems that Cornelius Vanderbilt did not have time to leave a will. If it really didn't exist, it would be another bloody storm.

"Waiter, waiter, let your manager come out--" A noise suddenly came from a corner of the restaurant, and two customers were slapped at the table and shouting at the restaurant manager.

Before the restaurant manager arrived, several security personnel in uniforms appeared quietly by the two customers. If the two customers had excessive movements, the security guards would take action immediately.

It takes a certain amount of courage to make trouble at the Clinton Castle Hotel.

"Two, what are your instructions?" Restaurant manager Fern Herbert appeared together with chef Robinson.

"Where are the mushroom soup we ordered? We came earlier and ordered earlier, but why do those who arrived later than us drink mushroom soup faster than us? Are you racist? I want to accuse you." The two young people were very imposing. Most of the people who could eat at the Clinton Castle Hotel were either rich or noble. They themselves were the enjoyers of privilege, but when their interests were damaged, they were staunch opponents of privilege.

"I'm sorry, the mushroom soup has been sold out today. To express my apology, I'll buy this order. Sorry, it disturbed the mood of the two of you in the meal." Fern Herbert apologized politely, but it was completely different from Robinson's attitude towards William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish just now.

The mushroom soup at the Clinton Castle Hotel is for sale in limited quantities. This is not for hunger marketing, but the mushroom soup production process is complicated, so the amount that the restaurant can provide every day is very limited.

The two customers came earlier than William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish. When they ordered the meal, they did have the last mushroom soup, but the soup is now on William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish's tables.

"Your waiter said that just now. It's not a matter of money. We can afford it. What we want is to treat it fairly. When we come to the restaurant to consume, we should enjoy fair service." The two customers were very dissatisfied. Those who could go to the Clinton Castle Hotel were basically all rich or noble, and such people were not short of money.

"Sorry, two gentlemen, please don't disturb other customers' meals. If you are not satisfied with this decision, then let's go to the office to talk?" Fern Herbert took a step back. If these two young people are ungrateful, then Fern Herbert would be polite.

"We are also customers, but our mood for dining has been destroyed. We waited here for half an hour, but only waited for a word 'sorry'. Sorry, I'm sorry, I can't accept this method." The slightly younger customer insisted that he wore the latest spring outfit in men's clothing, which was the Clinton Castle Hotel with sufficient heating, otherwise it would be unwise to wear this kind of clothes in this weather.

"So, what do you want?" Fern Herbert decided not to retreat. The restaurant was indeed wrong, but it was not unforgivable. The beach club behind the Clinton Castle Hotel was not easy to mess with. According to previous experience, these two young people would immediately be timid, and then they took the compensation given by the restaurant and looked for a suitable target.

"We want mushroom soup, fresh mushroom soup, damn it. Is it because there is something wrong with your brain or my expression?" The young man seemed to have no idea what was hidden in Fern Herbert's words, and still insisted on getting the treatment he deserved.

"Sorry to go to the bathroom." The older customer got up, pulled the napkin from his neck and kneaded it into a ball, and smashed it hard on the table in front of him.

From the entrance of the restaurant to the bathroom, you have to pass by William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish's dining tables. The older customers angrily scolded Fern Herbert while walking, and their steps subconsciously shifted a little.

Flanked by William Vanderbilt and Hamilton Fish's dining table.

"Hi, sir, please go here and don't disturb my boss's meal." William Vanderbilt's bodyguard stood up and prevented older customers from approaching William Vanderbilt's dining table.

"This is a public restaurant, not your living room, you have no right to interfere with my choice." The older customer was even more unhappy and had a big quarrel with William Vanderbilt's bodyguard.
