My America

Chapter 77: Take advantage of

"John, don't be so irritable, isn't that the case? Isn't it expected to produce results in one day?" Sheffield signaled that she wouldn't be impatient. Let's talk first.

Of course, regarding the exploration of oil, Sheffield believes that the current complaint is only a small problem, and he is 100% sure of this negotiation, because the two sides are completely different in terms of confidence. Except for yourself, who knows that there is oil underground in Texas? And Rockefeller's confidence is that who in this world will be more prospective than standard oil.

But compared to the two destined to cooperate, but for the time being intrigued by fighting people. Pierre, the owner and editor-in-chief of the Atlanta Morning Post who had just arrived home after a day of exhaustion, adjusted his expression before pushing the door open and did not want to worry his family.

Pierre was in his early forties, perhaps because of his frequent brain use, and his head was somewhat sparse. But this kind of hard work is worth it. He has a happy family, a gentle wife and a pair of children, lives in a big house and countless deposits, can be regarded as a successful person.

Pierre ’s wife has heard about what happened during the day today. When she saw her husband ’s return, she was very worried and asked questions. When she saw the love of her lover, Pierre adjusted his mindset. And dissatisfaction with the police department's inaction, but immediately the dissatisfaction ceased, and there was a knock at the door.

As a successful person, Pierre lives in a community with very good conditions and good public security. Looking at the situation outside through the door, a young man stood at the door and pushed the door to ask, "Are you?"

"Mark Jackson!" The person came to report his name, and a few men in suits suddenly appeared on the left and right sides that could not be seen by the door. This surprised Pierre and was at a loss for a while.

Mark Jackson did not feel that he had behaved badly, and said politely, "Mr. Editor, don't you invite me to sit down, of course, if you don't agree, I will go in to do it."

Immediately, Mark Jackson pushed Pierre away, led a few people into the house, looked at the room's furnishings with interest, and slightly nodded as if commenting, "The life of the editor-in-chief is ok."

"Who the **** are you, and this community lives in a position?" Pierre calmed his mind and wanted to use the nearby community environment and police department to make these unexpected guests retreat.

"Positive?" Mark Jackson frowned slightly, as if tasting the meaning in this sentence, and asked indifferently after a moment, "What is a status person? Have you heard of Jackson Manor?"

"Jackson Manor?" Pierre said a moment, and he naturally knew the existence of this plantation. I also know that the Jackson family is a large family in Georgia. They have always planted cotton in the plantation and are the leaders of the local textile industry. I only know that the reason is because they have written reports about this family.

"It's not important that you write a report and scold our family. I came here to talk about business. Although I don't understand where the family offended you, there are tens of thousands of farms in Georgia, but you always stare at our family. Do n’t let it go. ”Mark Jackson knew that the other party wanted to be crooked as soon as he saw the other person ’s sullen face. He waved his hands casually and sat down directly, putting his hands together on his knees. "

"Actually, my family is just like other farms. They grow a little cotton, corn, tobacco, and soybeans! These are not counted as chicken farms. The cheapest poultry in the United States of Georgia is believed to be on your table." Mark Jackson sighed for a long time before entering the topic, "Are you very hateful to people who are richer than you? That citizens also hate you can explain it, and what happened in the newspaper office during the day is not unexpected."

Apparently Mark Jackson knew everything about the scene in the city during the day, and just mentioned it, letting Pierre clear his head and blurted out, "You are those rogues you hired?"

"Speak for evidence, otherwise it's rumors. Look at my head, don't you just catch the wind and write some specious things to make money?" Mark Jackson seemed annoyed by his innocence and shook his head. "Those patriots The justice of the British spokesperson has nothing to do with me. I do n’t need to lie to you. But this time I was entrusted by someone to prepare to talk to you about the acquisition of the newspaper. "

The Lord is still visiting the Rockefeller family at his manor. If possible, Mark Jackson does not want to miss Peng Xiushenghui's meeting, but there is no way. He is always trusted to come out and be distracted.

In response to Sheffield's request, Mark Jackson had no reason to refuse. Like many defeated supporters of the Union State, the Jackson family was also hit hard, and even almost died in Brazil. It took several years to restore strength with the help of the Sheffield family.

Acquisition? The word stabbed Pierre's sensitive nerves. How could his whole life's efforts be acquired, and he flatly refused, "You act like a robber and think I will agree? Sooner or later, citizens will understand!"

"Understood that you received money? Do you want me to provide evidence?" Mark Jackson, who sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, ridiculed each other mercilessly. "Who are you? Dare to accuse me of being a robber? Don't think I don't understand what the newspaper is It ’s working, you have n’t collected less money in these years, otherwise you can live in such a house? "

This time, Pierre blushed for a while. The key is that he really received the money, but how did the other party know? Is this also a trap for each other?

"You are now disappearing from the press. The money you made before is enough for you to live a secure life. It can make your children live a good life. If you don't want it, the things you collect money for the British will spread. I have the evidence of your money collection, and I have all the certified evidence. You will be in disrepair, and the newspaper ca n’t keep it! ”Mark Jackson looked at Pierre ’s wife, the hostess of the house, easily, tilting his head. Raised his eyebrows, "Where can I find your home? This is not a problem for the Patriots, it just needs to be revealed."

Speaking of this, Mark Jackson snapped a finger, and the communication contract had appeared in front of the two. The index finger knocked on the contract on the desktop and said indifferently, "Do n’t delay the time, sign it, for your children, otherwise When people come back, everyone's face is not good. "

"However, my newspaper is worth more than $ 30,000!" Facing the pressure of Mark Jackson, Pierre, who had been hesitating for a long time, finally compromised and only wanted a more favorable contract.

"Don't you receive the deposit first? It's all counted!" Mark Jackson's eyes flashed a smile, slowing his breath. "Sign it, otherwise this house may be burned by patriotic citizens tomorrow . "
