America’s Road To Wealth

  Chapter 430 The status of the wealthy family's ecological chain

  The giants are a circle, and the circle goes around, until the end of the circle, everyone in the circle is their own people.

  For example, in the parallel time and space, there is a female student at Stanford University a few years later.

   She did not go to Stanford University, but she went to learn from Bill Gates and dropped out of school halfway.

  After dropping out of school, he opened a blood testing company in California.

  This female entrepreneur claims that the new product developed by her blood testing company only needs a needle eye, a drop of blood, and a cheap inspection fee to perform hundreds of different physical tests.

  She claimed that compared with the traditional method, which requires a small bottle of blood and costs a lot of money to conduct a single test, her innovative method is obviously more commercially promising.

  This kind of statement, which violates basic physiological common sense at first glance, should have no market.

  But this female entrepreneur has developed her company to a valuation of 9 billion US dollars in just a few years.

  Because she owns more than half of the shares, her net worth once reached 4.5 billion US dollars.

  She also formed a very prominent board of directors for her company.

  In this board of directors, there are more than one former Secretary of State of the United States.

   There are former U.S. defense ministers, and the number is also more than one.

   There are former U.S. senators, and there are former U.S. marines, admirals, and admirals. The number is still more than one...

   There is also the former CEO of Wells Fargo, there is media mogul Rupert Murdoch, the former CEO of Beechtel Corporation...

   Except for herself, the board of directors of her company, any member of the board of directors, is a prominent figure in the United States.

  However, this kind of technology that can only be realized in science fiction movies is of course impossible to complete in reality.

  In the end, the female entrepreneur and her company turned out to be a scam.

  She "frauded" a large group of powerful people, as well as many rich people and investment companies with more than one billion dollars in real money.

   It stands to reason that such a large group of bigwigs were cheated, and so much money from them.

  In this place in the United States, she will definitely disappear physically after being used to the best of her ability.

  Shooting 8 shots in the back, being hit by a car while walking on the street, etc., should have happened.

  However, from the discovery of this fraud case to the sentencing, it has been dragged on for several years.

  During this period, not only was she not imprisoned, she even got married and gave birth to a baby during the appeal period.

  Those bigwigs who were deceived by her, one or two have not yet come out to investigate.

   Until shortly before Abel was born again.

  She was sentenced to 11 years and 3 months in prison for defrauding investors.

  The kind that serve sentences in private prisons.

  The private prison where she served her sentence happened to be run by her husband's family.

   It was just opened, she was the first one, and later proved to be the only prisoner.

  This private prison with only one person has a detailed address, which happens to be a mansion of her husband's family.

   This woman's name is Elizabeth Holmes.

   And now, this 18-year-old future "female version of Jobs".

  Tonight, she accompanied her father to a banquet held by the Morgenthau family in New York.

  When her father took the initiative to socialize with the bigwigs at the banquet.

  Elizabeth herself, smiling sweetly, chatted quietly with Abel's fiancée Laura Bush.

   "Oh, Laura. You are so enviable. Look at your future husband, he is like a cosmic black hole in this hall, everyone is attracted to him!"

  Elizabeth was the same age as little Laura, only a few months older than little Laura.

  Little Laura is currently studying at the Manhattan campus of New York University.

  Elizabeth is studying at Stanford University in California.

  Two schools, one in the east and one in the west, and Elizabeth is not from Texas.

   But they don't look strange at all now.

   This is because the two have known each other since they were very young.

  Elizabeth lives in Washington, D.C., a city with a special status in this country.

   When little Laura was a child, she lived with her grandparents in the white house for four years.

  The reason for the friendly relationship between the parents and the family, and the fact that Holmes lived very close to the white house.

  The two were playmates and friends when they were young.

  As a DC native, being able to have such a good relationship with the people who live in the white house.

  The identities of Elizabeth's parents are naturally impossible to be ordinary people.

  Her family tree includes Charles Louis Fleischmann, who founded the Fleischmann Yeast Company, and Dr. Christian Holmes, who founded Cincinnati General Hospital and the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine.

  Elizabeth's father held a series of positions from the US State Council X to the International Development Agency, and also served as the vice president of Enron Corporation.

   As a senior official of the Pentagon, he planned and executed the transformation of the U.S. military from a conscription-based army to a fully voluntary army.

  Elizabeth's mother works in the U.S. Congress and is also from a famous family.

  Her family ancestors can even be traced back to Marshal Davot, one of Napoleon's top field generals.

  Looks more prominent than a shrub that can only be traced back to a family of lumberjacks in England.

   With such status, she is naturally qualified to be friends with little Laura who lived in the white house at that time.

  Hearing Elizabeth's words, she looked at her fiancé who was not far away, who was talking with a group of old people.

  Little Laura smiled slightly:

   "My luck has always been good, Elizabeth, you know that. We learned to fish together when we were young, and I always caught more than you."

  Little Laura knows, don't look at Elizabeth, and now stick to herself like a good girlfriend.

   But in fact, this guy never thought highly of himself before.

   When she was a child, little Laura even heard about it from her friends in Washington.

   When Elizabeth was a child, after her grandfather failed to be re-elected, she once happily said to her friends: "The redneck from Texas is finally going back!"

   All along, little Laura knew that Elizabeth was jealous of herself.

   Jealous of being able to live in a white house.

  It used to be, now...Looking at Elizabeth's eyes, little Laura knew it was too.

   It’s just this kind of occasion, the two were once childhood playmates.

  Elizabeth is so enthusiastic and proactive, she can't be too rude.

   "Yeah, you can always be lucky."

  Elizabeth felt that her emotions were well hidden.

  She looked at Abel in the distance, and then at little Laura.

  I think Abel is tall and handsome, and at the same time so dazzling.

  I also feel that little Laura is not as beautiful as me, and her figure is not as good as her. Her background... If there were not two great commanders, it would be like that.

  Elizabeth felt that most of herself was better than little Laura.

  That small part can be regarded as equal to both sides.

  But such a little Laura has a fiancé who is so outstanding that the whole America is staring at her.

   And what about myself?

   Apart from a similar background, I have nothing now!

  One of the potential marriage partners chosen by the family, Huanfa Ke the is the family that runs a chain of private prisons!

  Although private prisons are opened in the United States, they are still chains, but they are actually very profitable, and they must also be very powerful.

   No matter how much money can be made, this industry is also an industry that can hardly be exposed and is not very glorious.

  If it’s not comparable to Little Laura’s Abe, it’s okay to say, at least it’s very powerful.

  As long as Elizabeth is compared with Little Laura's Abel, Elizabeth will feel unbalanced from the bottom of her heart.

  In Elizabeth's view, the fiancé of the two is simply a heaven and a hell.

   But right now, the situation is stronger than the people. Elizabeth knew that it was best for her to please this bush chick whom she hated since childhood!

   What's more, because of Abel, Elizabeth thought of dropping out of school and starting a business earlier than in the parallel time and space.

   Now in her heart, her mind is full of wanting to get closer to Abel through little Laura.

   Want to get angel investment and support from Abel.

  In this way, no matter what kind of entrepreneurship you do, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

  Think about the start-up companies and projects that the richest man in the world is optimistic about.

   This project alone is enough to attract any investor and rich man from all over the world to join!

Of course.

   It would be even better if Abel could be snatched away from the annoying little Laura!

  Elizabeth felt that if she could do this.

   Even my parents and family will definitely support me with all my strength.

   Instead of letting yourself go with the man who runs the prison!

   "Laura, it's different from you who were blessed by luck. I'm not so lucky."

   Elizabeth smiled wryly, trying to make herself look pitiful.

   "My fiancé will most likely be John of the Cox family..."

  Cox is a relatively rare surname in the United States, but there is a well-known Cox family.

   This family owns Cox Enterprises, one of the media giants. It ranks around 14th or 15th in the ranking of private companies in the United States.

   But little Laura knew that the Cox Elizabeth mentioned was not the Cox from Cox Enterprises, but the Cox family that specialized in a chain of private prisons on the east coast of the United States.

  The two are actually relatives, and the latter also has a small share of Cox Enterprises.

   But the two parties separated a long time ago and cannot be confused.

   It's a bit like the current relationship between the various branches of the Mellon family.

   They all have the same ancestor and are also relatives, but they have already lived their own lives.

  Since the Cox family can open a private chain of prisons, it means that the family has a strong presence on the official level.

   Otherwise, they would not be able to make such a large private prison business that is so profitable.

  Little Laura knew that John Cox, and knew that this was a wealthy family similar to the Holmes family.

   They all live in the DC area, and little Laura saw them when she was a child.

   "John Cox? That's not bad, he's rated very well in our circle, and he's a steady person." Little Laura said softly with a smile.

  Elizabeth pouted inwardly.

  John Cox is eligible to marry Holmes, and his family is certainly not bad.

   Roughly the same as Holmes, or a shrub with only one big leader.

  After the two great commanders, the shrub family has jumped in class, slightly higher than them.

   The problem is Elizabeth's character, who is naturally pushy.

   If she marries John Cox in the future, there is a high probability that she will no longer be able to show off casually.

   Those who operate prisons, or private chains, try their best not to be in the news.

  Elizabeth wanted to continue to act pitifully, build a good relationship with little Laura, and then use little Laura as a springboard to contact Abel.

  Because she was mainly thinking about Abel, before speaking to little Laura, she subconsciously looked ahead, which was the direction of Abel.

   It's okay not to look at it, but after seeing it, Elizabeth couldn't help crying out in a low voice.

   "Oh, OMG, Laura, look over there! It's David Rockefeller and John Chris Morgan!"

   It turned out that Abel's social circle, which was so popular among the stars, was surrounded by a circle with an equally large number of people.

  In the middle of that circle, the two leaders are the oligarchs John Chris Morgan and David Rockefeller.

   "99 out of 100 banquets on the east coast will rumor that these two will come. But in fact, they will only appear once or twice at most!"

   "I heard that the two of them will appear tonight, but I didn't expect these two to really appear tonight!"

   Speaking of the latter, Elizabeth's tone has become very excited.

   Fortunately, she also knew that in such an occasion, she couldn't scream loudly, so she lowered her voice.

   "Really?" Little Laura smiled again and said:

   "But I heard that as long as Abel appears at a banquet held by a rich family on the east coast, the probability of these two appearing is 100%. I don't know if it is true."

  Elizabeth was stunned. At first, she silently calculated the probability problem.

  Later, Elizabeth realized that this was not an arithmetic problem at all.

   This is the little Bi next to him, who is showing off to himself.

  Elizabeth broke her defense, her complexion became extremely bad, and she felt like she couldn't continue acting.

   "That's it. It was a pleasure meeting you tonight, Elizabeth. But I'm off to chat with the other ladies."

   At this time, little Laura also said goodbye to her at the right time, and then slowly walked towards the circle of ladies in the other direction.

   That is the circle of female family members brought by the real bigwigs at the banquet tonight, served by the wives and ladies of the Morgenthau family.

  Elizabeth just came out of that circle just now.

   In that circle, young Elizabeth belonged to the periphery of the periphery.

  The kind that can only accompany the smiling face the whole time and listen to the ladies talking.

  Elizabeth didn't like the feeling of being a supporting role. After seeing little Laura just now, she ran out immediately.

   "Fake the Bi made a pool..."

  Elizabeth cursed secretly, and saw the circle of top ladies who made her feel a sense of escape just now.

   After little Laura walked past.

  They greeted little Laura as if the peacocks were spreading their tails.

   A large group of people, like blooming flowers, surrounded little Laura.

  At a glance, little Laura is clearly the center of that circle, one of the few people who are flattered, flattered, and envied among the petals.

   "Fack, Shet, Fack, Shet!"

  Elizabeth completely broke her defenses, full of resentment, she turned and walked outside regardless of her father who was still circling and socializing.

  Don't mention Elizabeth who fled in resentment.

  Abel's side.

   "What are you talking about that makes everyone so happy?"

  In the two circles that blended together, David Rockefeller came over with a glass of red wine and joined in with a smile.

   "I'm talking about the New York Yankees and the New York Giants. Just now, Mr. Newhouse assured that Mr. Steinbrenner will definitely sell the Yankees to Mr. Smith. After all, George is old."

   An old man who looks somewhat similar to David Mellon, but is not young said with a smile.

"Oh, the Yankees? That's my favorite team, but I don't like that Steinbrenner guy. If Mr. Smith, did buy it, I guarantee I'll be at Yankee Stadium. "

  Yankee Stadium is the home of the New York Yankees. It is located opposite McCombsden Park in the Bronx, New York City. It was built in 1923.

  The speaker was a younger John Chris Morgan.

  The core figure of the Morgan family is said to have just gained control of the family a few years ago.

   He is the youngest head of the family in the top circle of American wealthy families, about fifty years old.

  The premise is to ignore someone who is only 22 years old this year.

"Hahaha-"

   "That's what I said just now."

  The old man who was the first to answer, responded to John Chris Morgan with a smile.

  The old man’s name is Depp Mellon, the head of the New York Mellon family and one of the important figures of the American Mellon family.

  He has a son named David Mellon…

   Looking at the two guys looking at him, Abel smiled:

   "If Mr. Steinbrenner is really willing to give up his love as Mr. Newhouse said. Of course I am willing to fulfill the wishes of all gentlemen and go to Yankee Stadium with everyone to watch the game."

  Abel talked about himself, and Shi Yi Newhouse immediately smiled and said:

   "Hahaha, I think George will definitely not refuse. He also wants to appear at Yankee Stadium, gentlemen. Even if he is no longer the owner there at that time."

  Newhouse’s words made everyone laugh, including Shi Yi Newhouse.

   Everyone seemed to be smiling happily.

   It may be estimated that George Steinbrenner, who was not there, or who was not qualified to be there, would not be able to laugh after knowing the news.

  It's just a soil leopard from Ohio.

   Just hugged the thighs of the Newhouse family and was able to make a difference in New York.

  In the eyes of ordinary people, he may already be one of the top richest people.

   But in this circle, George Steinbrenner's status is roughly the same as Ikana's father who never met Abel.

   They all appear at banquets of this level, and it is easy to be regarded as a clown, the kind where everyone makes fun of it together.

   After laughing for a while, David Rockefeller smiled, still kindly, and said to everyone with a smile:

   "Sorry guys, Abel, I think we should talk."

   "Hehe, of course, I am looking forward to it. Sorry, everyone, excuse me."

   Abel smiled and toasted with everyone. After taking a sip, he nodded to Little Laura not far away.

   Then he and the two old guys walked up to the second floor slowly under the gaze of caring people.

  In the study room with simple and heavy decoration.

  Abel, David Rockefeller, and John Chris Morgan were separated by a small round table. The three of them formed a triangle and sat facing each other on comfortable chairs with semicircular backs.

   "Thanks. But I don't smoke..."

  Abel declined the cigars baked by David Rockefeller and shook his head with a smile.

  If other people know about this scene, even the heads of those wealthy families will be very surprised.

  The core figure of the Rockefeller family, dedicated to roasting cigars…

  Even if it is the commander-in-chief of the United States, or the chairman of the Federal Reserve, he would never dare to refuse.

   "Ah, sure enough. Everyone says Mr. Smith doesn't smoke, and it seems to be true."

  John Chris Morgan said with a smile.

  David Rockefeller didn't look angry either. He took the cigar back and smoked it himself instead of toasting it for John Cleese.

  The latter is already baking by itself.

   "Young man, we don't have to go around in circles. How about we do a share exchange? We want shares of Smith Financial Group."

  David Rockefeller, who lit the cigar, squinted his eyes slightly in the smoke, and said straight to the point.
