On October 1st, Henry returned to Springfield from New York. While bringing back Li Mu's patent documents related to Phillips screws, screwdrivers, and bolts, he also brought Li Mu a special guest, Carnegie.

That's right, that future "Iron King", Andrew Carnegie.

In 1872, Carnegie was not the king of steel, and he had not even had time to establish the Carnegie-Coleman Iron and Steel Plant. Steel plant.

In American history, Carnegie is definitely a character who must be a big book. The Scot, born in 1835, is only 37 years old this year, but his career has been small and successful. When he worked at the Pennsylvania Railroad Company Carnegie began to invest in stocks, and continued to buy patents from others, and then made a steady stream of profits from it. In 1865, the end of the American Civil War, peace finally came, and the United States entered a period of rapid development. Carnegie sensitively seized this opportunity and resigned from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company in preparation for starting his own business.

Before resigning, when Carnegie brought people to repair bridges and make up roads, he often thought about whether iron bridges could be used instead of wooden bridges. In 1862, Carnegie and several friends founded a company that built iron bridges. On July 4, 1863, both sides of the Civil War began to use warships to confront, which warned Carnegie that the era of sailing is over and the age of steel is coming. So, after resigning, Carnegie traveled to Europe, visited the Iron and Steel Research Institute in London, and decisively bought a steel patent invented by the Dodds brothers, and also bought a patent for coke washing reduction method. Carnegie believes that these two patents will bring him a steady stream of wealth.

Obviously, Carnegie has decided to devote himself to the iron and steel industry, which will be the goal of his lifetime struggle.

Then Carnegie came to Li Mu for his purpose, and Carnegie wanted to buy Li Mu's patent.

After understanding Carnegie's purpose, Li Mu directly rejected Carnegie's request.

"Thank you very much, but Mr. Carnegie, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I am not going to sell these patents. I think if you control these patents in my own name, it will create greater profits than selling them directly. "Li Mu doesn't want to do a hammer sale. The application prospect of the cross pattern screw is extremely broad. It can be expected that in the next ten years, a steady stream of wealth will be obtained. This is a golden chicken that can lay eggs. Carnegie can foresee that Li Mu can naturally foresee.

Li Mu received Carnegie in the Will's living room. On this day, Gloria and Sandy did not go to school. The two big and small Lolly squeezed on a single sofa in the living room. Yan, his eyes are full of admiration.

Of course, Will was also present. In order to give Li Mushe a facade, Will deliberately called Bresta from Springfield. With Bresta, there was also a police officer named Chad, so Li Mu was with Carne. When Ji was talking, Will was sitting next to Li Mu. Brest's Chad was standing behind Will as usual. Yan Hu stood at the door of the living room. His huge body blocked half the door. Yan Shun was at the kitchen door. It seemed like he was feeding Pan, but his attention was always here.

"Rim, for you, inventing these products was just a clever move. You just did a pen to draw it, but now it can bring you five thousand dollars in gains. Why should you refuse it?" Carnegie did not Give up, this guy with a height of only 1.6 meters is grumpy and stubborn, just like the patents before the purchase. As long as he has identified something, Carnegie will definitely do it. This is also a lot. The qualities necessary for a successful person to succeed.

Hearing that Li Mu actually refused the 5,000-dollar temptation, Will and Bresta had no expressions on their faces, but Gloria and Sandy exclaimed in excitement.

Strictly speaking, Li Mu and Gloria are about the same age, so Gloria and Sandy really do n’t understand why they can only ask Will for pocket money at this age, but Li Mu can do it with others "Five thousand dollars" business.

What made Gloria and Sandy even more amazing was that Li Mu actually rejected the money!

"Mr. Carnegie—" Li Mu said of course.

"Please call me Andrew-if you don't mind." Carnegie really didn't look at Li Mu as a child when he said that.

"Well, Mr. Andrew, about ten years ago, you introduced the sleeper car inventor, Woodruff, to the Pennsylvania Railroad and established a train sleeper car manufacturing company. Then you borrowed money to buy a portion of the company's shares. If I remember correctly, it was just a $ 200 investment, but the stock dividend you paid in a year was as high as $ 5,000-"Li Mu used Carnegie's own experience to show his attitude.

"Where did you know these things?" Carnegie's expression was shocked and confused.

Of course, Li Mu does not say that it seems from the encyclopedia. Li Mu did not answer this question directly, but just kept a mysterious smile, and Carnegie laughed.

In the 21st century, Carnegie's name is followed by the note "King of Iron and Steel", and another note is "King of Charity".

Carnegie's legend lies in that he is not only a successful entrepreneur, but more importantly, after the success of his career, he has donated almost all of the huge wealth he has earned to social causes. The second half of Carnegie's life was devoted to philanthropy and world peace.

In contrast, throughout the nineteenth century, Carnegie's name had nothing to do with charity. Before 1900, everyone mentioned Carnegie's name as "capital robber" as a comment.

In 1873, the worst economic crisis in the capitalist world struck, a large amount of European funds were drained, more and more banks closed down, and more and more people suffered bad luck. Kurt also failed to escape the doom. At this time Carnegie had founded a steel company and was developing well. So Scott turned to Carnegie for help, but Carnegie said "family to steel partner, many people have Relying on him for financial protection "refused.

What's even more ironic is that during this economic crisis, Carnegie's partner, the Coroman brothers and Carnegie's brother-in-law, were facing bankruptcy, so Carnegie bought all of their shares, and Carnegie Steel Company, a giant kingdom of steel.

Say yes to shelter your family and partners?

Li Mu doesn't want to be a stepping stone to someone's rise, even if he is the future steel king.
