In the 21st century, there are contractors in almost all foreign wars in the United States. These so-called "contractors" are mercenaries. Although they have names similar to migrant workers, they receive relatively modest salaries. , Engaged in the most dangerous work on the battlefield, the most important point is that they do not have any honor at all, even if the contractor suffers casualties, it will not be included in the official loss number, the official does not even need to pay a pension, all this Naturally there is an insurance company to pay.

Since there are so many benefits, Li Mu can't think of any reason for the Ministry of War to reject the Panama company. This is also a wonderful opportunity for the Panama company to continue to expand its influence. As a qualified businessman, such an opportunity should not be missed, even if this Will affect the reputation of the Steed Group in Spain to a certain extent.

Well, unlike the Morgan family's right and left, because of the Cuban War of Independence, the Horse Group has long been on the Spanish blacklist. Regardless of whether the Panamanian company will intervene in the war between the United States and Spain, the Spanish will not change their horses. Group hostility.

"Pipa, I understand your concerns. If you have reservations about this, then we can form a new company for this." Li Mu did not want to force J.P. Morgan, and everyone could not force them.

Yes, to solve this problem is very simple. To be honest, even if no one is willing to offend the Spaniards, Li Mu can form a separate company to talk to the Ministry of War. Anyway, this is already a familiar road for Li Mu, and it is enough in Panama and Haiti. Manpower is available for Li Mu to call.

Before the summer arrives, the war in Haiti is coming to an end. The black army of the interim government cannot confront professional soldiers in the Republic of Haiti. Those blacks cannot even operate their weapons proficiently. Their understanding and acceptance ability has always been The problem is that it is a good hand to make black people mess up and fight. Once you try to restrain black people with discipline, the loose side of black people's personality will be revealed.

At the end of May, the army of the Republic of Haiti captured Jacmel, an important coastal city on the southern coast of Haiti. Undersea President Pierre was forced to flee to Dominica. An exile government was formed in the Dominican capital, Santo Domingo, although there are still sporadic in Haiti. Rebellion, but these rebellions are no longer the case. Perhaps it won't be long before Li Mu can draw manpower from Haiti.

"Yes, maybe we can also set up an East India company that is responsible for developing the Far East business." Rockefeller was fascinated. If he was born two hundred years ago, there would be nothing British or Dutch.

Both the British and the Dutch formed the East India Company. The Dutch East India Company lasted from 1602 to 1799. The British East India Company lasted from 1600 to 1874. From the perspective of the Dutch and the British These two companies are their pride, because these two companies have brought a lot of wealth to these two countries, and the Dutch and the British have never praised the two companies that have been dissolved. However, in In the future, these praises will become shameless footnotes, just like the old antiques that have long remembered the colonial era, and they will eventually become synonymous with shame.

Although they themselves do not have this awareness.

"Can't you change your name? No matter which name is cleaner than this name, I don't want to be the object of cursing by other people in the future." Li Mu said that he would not use the name of the East India Company, which not only means nothing. Being uncreative also means that Li Mu classifies himself with those colonists, although what Li Mu does is no different from those colonists.

"It's just called the Far East Company. We can try it. If the consequences are more serious than we think, then we can dissolve this company at any time." Andrew Carnegie is 100% supportive, as long as the war begins, the demand for steel will Increased, so Andrew Carnegie supports any form of war, and he is indeed a partner of Li Mu.

"Anyway, as long as you don't forget me." Henry DuPont doesn't matter. Anyway, whether the US government goes shirtless or hires this group of agents, it is necessary to order gunpowder from the Gunpowder Industry Association. In any case, Henry DuPont will be here this time. Make a fortune in the war.

Look, this is the real old-fashioned slyness. If you kill yourself, you will earn a lot of money.

"Hey, hey, did you just exclude me?" J.P. Morgan only realized it was not good. I did n’t say how much money I made, and it was unacceptable to be excluded from the group. You must know J · P. Morgan invests, which is not in line with the concept of speculation.

"No, our door is open to you at any time, unless you are unwilling to join us, but don't worry, I'm sure this will not affect the friendship between us." Li Mu's hand said innocent, this true injustice, Li Mu never I never thought about kicking the Morgan family away. Of course, from the perspective of Li Mu, if J.P. Morgan did not want to join, Li Mu would not force it.

Can't make it.

"Why not, anyway, it's all investment. Since you are all willing to join, I don't think there is any reason for it to be unsuccessful." J.P. Morgan still decided to be consistent with the people in front of him, although this may affect the old continent Views on the Morgan family, but the two powers harm each other, and the interests of the United States are more important to J.P. Morgan than the threat of the old continent.

It ’s true not to put eggs in the same basket, but since there are choices, there must be weight. The Morgan family has now been divided into the Old World and the New World. Although J.P. Morgan intervened between the United States and the Old World countries. The war may have an impact on the Morgan family on the old continent, but J.P. Morgan still has to do this, otherwise it may not be satisfactory on both sides, and it is worth the money.

Large families like the Morgan family have family think tanks. The Morgan family certainly has its own analysis of the economic prospects of the United States and Europe. Otherwise, J.P. Morgan would not come to the United States to open a US business, similar to Rothschild. The tragedy of the Wilde family can never be repeated. If the Rothschild family did not take the initiative to abandon American business, then there would be no rise of the Morgan family.

At the end of the meeting, a preliminary unified opinion was obtained, and the implementation phase immediately began.

Li Mu and their group have extraordinary execution ability, otherwise they will not achieve the present achievement. The energy burst out when a group of tycoons work together for the same thing is amazing. The day after the establishment of the Far East Company Li Mu and Rockefeller came to the War Department of Washington as the executive chairman of the Far East Company and went directly to War Secretary William Tekussai Sherman.

If you want to see Sherman for someone else, you must make an appointment. Li Mu and Rockefeller do not need to, not to mention Sherman. Even if Li Mu and Rockefeller want to see President Hayes, they do not need to make an appointment.

As the Secretary of War, Sherman was still so busy. There was always a line in front of the office. When they saw Li Mu and Rockefeller coming together, everyone consciously stood back, and no one even dared to express dissatisfaction with Li Mu and Rockefeller's cut line. Sherman also eliminated all the arrangements for the day and left time for Li Mu and Rockefeller.

"——So, you just set up a company and hope that this new company will get a contract from the Ministry of War to start a war against another country instead of the Ministry of War-" After listening to Li Mu and Rockefeller, Sherman His expression was a bit broken, that is, Li Mu and Rockefeller could be so whimsical and replaced with anyone else, and Sherman had the guards come in and throw people out.

"Is it strange? In Panama, we already did this, even earlier Cuba, we did it too-by the way, in Cuba, you still forced me to do it." Li Mu then remembered the old account It is a little too late and a little shameless.

"The situation is different now. At the outbreak of the Cuban Civil War, the Spanish mainland was in chaos. We originally wanted to create more trouble for the Spaniards, but-" Sherman couldn't help crying, the subtext was then There was no hope for Li Mu at all, but no one expected that Li Mu was so fierce that he drove the Spaniards out of Cuba directly.

It was that Ulysses Grant and Bernard did not have much hope for Li Mu at that time, so when the Cubans drove the Spaniards out, they caught Washington off guard. This was also the last of Cuba's many resources that were all Mu Mu ’s. One of the reasons for this group of people to divide up is that if Washington's response is always half-slow, Li Mu would not have succeeded so easily.

"Well gentlemen, we can't always live in memories. Now our goal is in the Far East. A bigger scene is waiting for us to start. Mr. Minister, Spain is not the original Spain, but our Far East company is also unprecedented. To be strong, all we need is an opportunity, a chance to verify the Spaniard's combat effectiveness. If we can win, then everything is fine. If we ca n’t win, it does n’t matter. At least we can help the War Department test the Spaniard ’s combat effectiveness. ”Rockefeller does not give The opportunity for Li Mu and Sherman to continue pulling the skin, it is said that Li Mu and Rockefeller should sing a white face and a red face, which is more conducive to fighting for the interests of the Far East company, but Rockefeller does not want to make it too complicated. In the United States, nothing is Li Mu and Rockefeller came together to be uncertain.

Although Sherman does not need the votes of Steed and Standard Oil, in the United States, no one can ignore the existence of Li Mu and Rockefeller. If Sherman does not give Li Mu and Rockefeller face, then Congress will cast no confidence in the War Department tomorrow. Votes, then Sherman will get rid of the position of Secretary of War the day after tomorrow, so in the United States, the influence of capital is everywhere, this is a merchant-controlled country.

"Of course, of course, I know the benefits of this, but the Ministry of War already has a clear plan, and part of the plan is currently being implemented. If a contract is signed with the Far East Company at this time, it will definitely affect the preparations of the Ministry of War, so- — "Sherman did not dare to reject Li Mu and Rockefeller, but at the same time he did not dare to agree easily, so it was so tricky.

We must know that the US government that has just emerged from the economic crisis is not rich. Objectively speaking, even if it is not considered from the perspective of political influence, the United States needs a war to stimulate economic recovery and development, so the Department of War will seek external expansion. However, because the funds that Congress can invest are limited, preparations for the war are very difficult. Until now, the funds promised by Congress have not been fully in place. If it is squeezed out of this time to the Far East Company, it will definitely affect the plan of the Ministry of War.

Don't look at Li Mu and Rockefeller with full confidence, but Sherman did not dare to put Bao on the Far East Company. Just now Rockefeller said that Sherman has a different understanding from Rockefeller, and indeed is what Rockefeller said. If the Far East The company has won everything, but if it does not win, then even the War Department will not be able to defeat the Spaniards.

According to Sherman's understanding, the war should be to gather all the power to serve one battle, rather than one by one as envisaged by Li Mu and Rockefeller, it will become a fueling tactic, and the effect will certainly be counterproductive.

"Mr. Minister, the cooperation between the Far East Company and the Ministry of War will definitely not affect the preparation of the Ministry of War." Li Mu is well-informed and completely unconcerned with Sherman.

Sherman shook his head with a grin, and everyone would say that, but how could it not affect it? Otherwise, Li Mu and Rockefeller came to Sherman together. They must have asked for a lot. Otherwise, Li Mu and Rockefeller ’s worth. Is it time for the tycoons to be worthless?

"You see, we don't require the Ministry of War to pay the relevant costs now. Of course, it is better if the Ministry of War is willing to pay. I have two options here. One of them is that the Ministry of War will pay the relevant fees now. Then we in the Far East The company will immediately start fulfilling the contract— "Li Mu said of the first option, and did not expect Sherman to agree.

Sherman did not agree. Being able to maintain patience for Li Mu to talk is already giving Li Mu face.

"——The second plan is that the Ministry of War does not need to pay any penny for this, and all the upfront costs are borne by the Far East Company. If we win, the honor belongs to the Ministry of War. If we lose, then When we are doing charity, we do n’t need any compensation from the Ministry of War. ”This condition of Li Mu has enough temptation. Of course, this also means that the Ministry of War—No, the US government has to pay a greater price.

But on the other hand, it is not the same thing that the US government pays a higher price than the War Department pays. According to Li Mu's second condition, no matter whether the Far East company can succeed, it will not affect the interests of the War Department. After all, Congress gave money to the Ministry of War and didn't even want to go back. There is no such thing.
