1850 American Gold Tycoon

Chapter 215: People who can’t afford to offend (recommended votes will add more updates)

After the game started, Erics and Yinsak's smiles suddenly froze.

As Yin Lisabai stepped on the pedal easily, the needle on the sewing machine rose and fell rapidly.

Even a layperson like Hunter can easily see that a pedal-operated sewing machine sews faster.

Moreover, Yin Lisabai operates the sewing machine more easily and calmly than the other two professional sewing workers.

"Faster! Faster!"

"I'll give you a $500 bonus if you win the game!"

Erics and Yinsak urged the sewing workers operating the sewing machines to go faster.

But this is still of no avail, because their speed has reached the limit, and the ceiling of the hand-operated sewing machine is more than 300 stitches per minute.

"time up!"

Fish stared at the time on his pocket watch and announced that it was game time.

Elizabeth Yin and the two sewing workers stood up and handed the cloth in their hands to Fish, who would judge and announce the winner of the game.

Fish placed the three pieces of cloth on the table and observed them carefully.

The stitches produced by Erics' sewing machine were terrible and scattered. Erics sacrificed everything for sewing efficiency.

In Fish's eyes, Erics' sewing machine was the first to be eliminated. A sewing machine specially modified solely for competition has no practical significance and has no practical value.

The stitches left by Yinsak's sewing machine on the cloth are very tight and orderly, but the number of stitches does not seem to be as many as that of Erics's sewing machine.

What surprised Fish the most was Walter's pedal-operated sewing machine. Not only did the stitches appear neat, but the number of stitches seemed to be nearly twice that of the other two sewing machines.

This can be distinguished by looking at it directly without counting.

Of course, since it was a competition, the process still had to be followed. Fish asked his assistant to carefully count the stitches on the cloth.

After a while, the answer was revealed.

"Erics's sewing machine has 387 stitches! Yinsak's sewing machine has 321 stitches! Walter's sewing machine has 605 stitches!"

Fish nodded, and then showed the three pieces of cloth to the other New York City officials: "Who do you think can win the crown?"

"The answer is obvious. The gap is too big. This is the most disparate competition I have ever seen." Hunter said with a smile, "Mr. Walter's sewing machine is the best among the three sewing machines!"

Other New York officials also agreed that Walter won the game without any suspense or controversy.

"I declare that Mr. Walter wins!"

Fish walked into Walter, grabbed Walter's hand, and raised Walter's hand high on his tiptoes.

The New Yorkers watching the game burst into loud cheers.

Amid the cheers and gazes of the crowd, Liang Yao took the first-place gold medal of the Liang Yao Award that had been prepared and hung the heavy gold medal around Walter's neck.

The journalist who had already set up his camera pressed the shutter to record this precious moment.

Of course, the highlight is yet to come. Compared with the heavy gold medal, the specially customized huge $30,000 Bank of America check in Liang Yao's hand is more eye-catching.

After Liang Yao showed the check to everyone, he immediately held the check in both hands and handed the check to Walter.

The excited citizens applauded and cheered for Walter, and some even shouted Walter's name.

At this moment, Walter is the pride of New York citizens.

Walter was moved to tears, and tears came out of his eyes unsatisfactorily.

He has been suffering from the bitterness of life for decades, and he never thought that one day he would be able to get so much money.

I never thought that one day I would be recognized by so many people.

"Congratulations, Mr. Walter."

Liang Yao shook hands with Walter and congratulated Walter.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Liang. It is the luckiest thing in my life to meet your appreciation." Walter said from the bottom of his heart.

Erics and Yinsak were very disappointed after losing the game, but in front of the public, in order to show their magnanimity, they still congratulated Walter.

The New York state judge who was watching the game was also very happy, because after losing this game, Erics and Yinsak would also lose ownership of the relevant sewing machine patents.

New York state courts will no longer have to deal with this headache-inducing lawsuit.

"If you two are not in a hurry to leave New York, you can go to Doyle's Cafe in the afternoon. I will treat you to a cup of coffee."

Liang Yao said to Erics and Yin Sak in a tone that could not be refused.

"Okay, sir."

The two replied dully.

Although their mood has hit rock bottom, they have not lost their minds.

They are all just small factory owners with a net worth of US$20,000 to US$30,000. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are also successful people who have achieved financial freedom.

Even in a city like New York, where wealth abounds, millionaires are not everywhere.

Liang Yao is one of the richest men in the United States, a state speaker, and an army colonel.

The three worlds of business, government, and military take over, and it is not something that little people like them can afford to offend.

"I'll be waiting for you at Doyle's Café."

After finishing speaking, Liang Yao took Yin Lisabai on the newly built carriage and left the square in front of the New York Municipal Building.

"I'm so happy for Mr. Walter."

Yin Lisabai, who won the competition, said very happily while sitting in the carriage that was moving smoothly.

"I didn't expect that in addition to doing business, you would also make inventions. Mr. Walter told me that his sewing machine was made under your guidance, and your carriage was made by someone. The riding experience is better than other carriages. It’s much, much less bumpy, is there any secret to that?”

"There is no mystery." Liang Yao smiled and said, "I just added a few springs to the carriage. This is much simpler than the shock absorption system on the Pioneer locomotive."

"You are so powerful, even more powerful than my father!"

Yin Lisabai looked at Liang Yao with eyes full of admiration.

"Where has your father been these two days? I haven't seen your father these two days."

Liang Yao thought about not seeing Vanderbilt for a few days.

"My father is busy with the railway company. Oh, and there are also lawsuits. My father has to deal with hundreds of lawsuits every year. Although Clark handles these matters for his father, sometimes he still has to come forward in person." Lisa White said.

"Your restaurant is doing well. Your father should have agreed to let you go into business now," Liang Yao said.

"Thanks to you, this business model is very new and attractive in New York. Lisa Yin's restaurant has twenty-five franchisees in New York alone, including Boston, Philadelphia, New Haven, Chicago, and even New York City. There are also sporadic franchisees in Aoliang," Lisa Bai Yin said very proudly.

“I may be America’s first female millionaire before too long!”

"Future millionaire, now I have something to ask for your help." Liang Yao thought of something.

"What's going on?" Yin Lisababa asked curiously, blinking her eyes.

"I want to use your restaurant to launch an activity. For example, customers who come into the store only need to measure their height and shoulder, chest, waist and hip data to get a 20% discount or a free snack such as French fries. activities." Liang Yao said.

Since ready-made clothes will be made in the future, collecting body data of Americans is an essential part.

The immigrants in the eastern part of the United States are mainly European immigrants, and the body data of both sides are similar. The data collected can also be used directly in the future European market, without the need to collect additional body data of Europeans.

"It's a trivial matter!" Lisa Bai Yin agreed happily, "Have you thought of any new way to make money? Is it related to making clothes? Let's work together. Take me with you."

Yin Lisabai shook Liang Yao's arm and begged Liang Yao to bring her. The sewing machine and body data reminded her immediately that Liang Yao planned to mass-produce clothes.

"Since it's cooperation, you have to let me see the value of you as a partner." Liang Yao said.

Elizabeth Yin inherited Vanderbilt's genes and also inherited the Dutch's good business skills.

Being able to attract so many franchisees in a short period of time shows that Yin Lisabai still has certain abilities.

"I know a lot about fashion and know the preferences of noble ladies. I can also design and sew clothes. When my sister got married, I sewed her dress. Women's demand for clothes is far stronger than that of men. ." Yin Lisabai thought for a while and said, "Does this count?"

"Let me think about it." Liang Yao said, holding his chin.

"Then I'll look forward to good news." Yin Lisabai suddenly thought of something and said to Liang Yao.

"Uncle Van Daze asked me to ask you. You promised to open a supermarket with him, but why have you suddenly heard nothing from us recently?"

"I'm very busy, and I always have to do things one by one. Tell Fan Daze on my behalf that I will definitely honor what I promised him." Liang Yao said.

News of Walter's victory soon spread to the casinos on Broadway.

Faced with this shocking news, many gamblers beat their chests and couldn't believe it was true.

After repeatedly confirming the authenticity of the news, they had to accept this reality.

Unlike the other gamblers who looked like they were mourning their heirs, Coney's face was smiling. This was the first time he had won so much money in a casino.

He personally saw Elizabeth Yin using the pedal sewing machine manufactured by Walter, and also went to the New York store to view and use the hand-operated sewing machines of Ericsson and Yin Sak.

It was something that Walter expected to win the Liang Yao Invention Award. The boss always had a good eye and would never see the wrong person. The first place he liked must be the first place!

"Why are you standing there?! You've only seen me lose money, but you haven't seen me win money?!"

Kony urged, slapping the gaming table arrogantly.

"I'm willing to accept defeat and pay you quickly! If you want to default on your debt, my brothers from the Dragon Flag Regiment will have to overturn your casino!"

"Mr. Kony, you are so lucky today, why don't you play a few more games?" a casino staff member said to Kony.

"Go away! I am Mr. Liang's assistant. Mr. Liang has to discuss business this afternoon. I don't have time to play with you. Every business of Mr. Liang starts with millions of dollars. You can afford to pay for delaying Mr. Liang's business. Well?" Kony said, tapping the table impatiently.

Seeing this, the staff had no choice but to turn around and ask for a few thick stacks of Citibank dollar certificates.

Kony whistled cheerfully, and after carefully counting the U.S. dollar coupons, he stuffed the U.S. dollar coupons into his handbag and left a message: "Please call me Kony, the God of Gambling."

I left the casino without looking back and headed to Doyle's Cafe at the intersection of Water Street and Wall Street.
