Frankfurt.
Former German Rothschild head office.
“Vyron, report how much cash you have to the German Investment Corporation.”
6 in the morning, early in the morning.
The inside of the German Investment Corporation was busy. All divisions of the German Investment Corporation were assigned a steel chicken game, leaving only the minimum number of employees.
The hedge fund’s steel division.
At least when it comes to steel, Veyron is quicker than James.
Apparently, the science and engineering department is in charge of Veyron.
“This is a call from the New York Financial Settlement Organization. Currently, $50 million in cash has been transferred, and an additional $50 million is expected to be deposited.”
“It’s a little slow.”
“I can’t help it. No matter how large a New York financial institution is, the size of $10 million is too large. It seems that they are having a hard time controlling and controlling the accident so that it doesn’t happen.”
“Actually, if it’s 10 million dollars, there’s always one or two people who look around. Do you have insurance?”
“Yeah, I was in the Robert Syndicate of Lloyd’s Insurance.”
“Robert?”
If it is Robert, it must be a busy time with the back work of the Qing Empire silver ingot project.
“If it’s Robert, doesn’t Hong Kong exist now?”
“It is said that he returned to the UK a few days ago. Still, he asked the director to tell him that he had entrusted Hong Kong business to someone.”
“Robert…that bastard… he smells like money.”
Anyway, luck is a skill. on this plate.
for a moment.
could you have followed me?
‘By the way, who is the takeover to… Ah.’
“It seems that you have handed over everything to Peter.”
Peter.
General Manager of China Settlement Bank.
A hidden director of Lehman Brothers who works as a financial advisor to Governor Yang Gwang of the Namqing Empire.
‘It must not be a robbery that one body can handle, but I have successfully taken over Robert’s business.’
“Did you say anything more to Robert?”
“Ah, you asked me to tell you that reinforcements are from Lehman Brothers.”
“Is that how it happened?”
“Yeah, he said that he started to expand the steel market in the Qing Empire in earnest.”
steel market.
The word is the steel market, but in reality the railroad division and the arms division. It seems that the New Nippon Steel blast furnaces are starting to return.
That’s not all.
The fact that the Qing Empire intervened as a financial partner of Lehman Brothers is another suggestion.
“How many days until the completion of the railroad?”
“The project from Guangzhou to Hankou will be completed within the next half year.”
“It’s fast.”
Financial partners enter the market in earnest.
This is proof that railway companies are pouring money in earnest.
That they are making a spurt for the railroad construction.
“How’s Standard Oil’s Shanxi Coal Work?”
“Sanxi Coal Corporation is also said to be screaming happily while supplying coal to Nippon Steel.”
“Is the railroad completed?”
“Yes, it is said that the route construction from Shanxi Province to Vladivostok via the Dongcheng Railway has been completed. Although it is still a single line, the operation permit has been obtained, and the train operation is becoming active.”
“Wow, time is fast. Looking back, it’s already been two years.”
thank god.
Coal supply is also smooth.
Coal is an essential part of the steel industry.
The early 20th century was a time when more coal than iron ore was used to run furnaces in steel mills.
Therefore, it is best to build the steel mill as close to the coal zone as possible.
‘Actually, the presence or absence of coal is more important than iron ore. Without coal, the furnace itself cannot run.’
However, Shanxi Coal Corporation has a large quantity of coal itself, and because of the Russian-made network, coal is also in the game of chicken, so the price is cheap.
From the point of view of Nippon Steel, I was angry.
“How long did the steelworks of Nippon Steel work?”
“Thirteen large steel mills are already under construction or have been completed. It is said that even in the Korean Empire, one steel mill is being built along with the completion of the railroad.”
“Okay. It feels like it’s rolling right.”
The last one is Australia.
“How about Detroit Steel?”
“Australia’s Detroit Steel is mouth-watering to say the least. They say it’s an iron mine that’s digging for what’s going on.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
“Iron ore is pouring out indefinitely.”
Actually, I saw it from the future.
When I worked on Wall Street, I had worked with iron ore raw materials, so I had a map of Australia’s iron mines.
‘Detroit Steel has a special exploration team at its headquarters, but it is said.’
there is no such thing
I just pull it out of the mine map in my head.
“How much is it pouring?”
“Would you believe it if it was as good as an American iron mine?”
“…..haha.”
I forgot.
The Australian mine map was a scam.
“It’s not just steel. It’s a win for the coal mines in Australia.”
“Crazy.”
“It’s crazy. So, the Detroit Steel Coal business is expected to hit the break-even point even in the chicken game.”
Coal and iron ore pouring from the infinite map of Australia.
A frenzy of New Nippon Steel Works.
An overflowing Asian market.
Standard Oil Shanxi Coal Corporation’s support fire.
What is this… It’s almost a massacre of civilians.
‘The Asian division is almost pitiful for its competitors.’
European steel market.
This is the place to be concerned about right now.
“Are the German Rothschilds not dissatisfied?”
“Not at all. Rather, it is said that the work intensity has decreased and it has become looser.”
“They are workaholics. Good news.”
Everyone is calm despite the urgent personnel assignment.
It’s because the bankers who took over Germany’s Rothschilds and succeeded them are all proven elites.
They, like veterans, were quickly merging into their newly assigned divisions.
I have a robe
‘Oh.’
“Vyron, let the German Rothschilds operate separately. Be careful not to leak confidential information to them.”
“Yes, I have already allocated them separately from the hedge fund personnel. They will be put into practice for the time being.”
“great.”
Headquarters are not yet available.

Only talented people who have been verified in this project will be able to knock on the door of Headquaw.
“Warn the hedge fund managers, too. You too could be demoted based on your performance.”
“…..Yes.”
“The German Empire is not our hometown. In the wild, where it can be tense at any time, only proven personnel are needed. If you can’t adapt anyway, you’ll just be culled. Only you will suffer.”
“They are all adventurous talents. I think everyone will do well.”
“Then I’m glad.”
puddle.
I grabbed the back of my neck and turned it around.
I climbed the stairs and arrived at the office of the head of the German Investment Corporation.
“Oh, just one more Veyron.”
“I’m listening.”
“German Settlement Bank to distribute invitations to the ‘General Assembly’ to affiliated banks.”
General Assembly of the German Settlement Bank.
de facto board of directors.
“Everyone should see their faces.”
There are still many bank managers who are not familiar with them.
At this bank’s general meeting, it was necessary to discuss the scorched earth operation in order to get everyone familiar with each other.
“and…..”
“Yes?”
I smiled bitterly.
“Send invitations to Krupp as well.”
“But I heard that you refused to join…”
“So, let’s go. Let’s try to convince him again while serving him.”
Why did you reject the Alternative Steel Alliance?
I wanted to know why.
What are the Prussian Junkers thinking?
“To inform you that there will be no reason to refuse.”
“All right.”
“Make the party as luxurious as possible. Don’t mind the budget.”
Veyron took notes in his notebook without exception.
I raised the corners of my lips.
“I will proceed as you said.”
“great.”
have a good feeling
Yeah, it felt like something good was about to happen.
“Let’s just proceed like this.”
***
“shit!”
Wajangchang-
Essence.
Headquarters in Krupp.
Chairman’s Office.
“Does that blue bastard dare to mock me?”
Detroit Morgan.
Moltke, who thought he had been ridiculed by the kid, vomited out anger. He drew his sword from his waist and made a mess in the room.
profit-
Drawing of founder Krupp with a knife.
Expensive ceramics imported from Qing Dynasty.
broken windows.
In all directions of the study, piles of egg-shaped papers fell like snow.
His lieutenant calmly closed his eyes and stood by his side.
“Calm down, Brigadier. It’s bad for the staff to see.”
“Really? Did you tell the main building to calm down now? That young blue-eyed kid made fun of me, so how the hell am I supposed to calm down?”
Moltke foamed his mouth.
“The lieutenant. Obviously I told you to decline joining the German Settlement Bank.”
“Yes, you said so.”
“Are you sure you refused?”
“Yes, I definitely declined.”
“By the way…By the way, why am I getting such an invitation?”
Clink!
Moltke’s face flushed red as he threw the furniture away.
“Then I must not have signed up for the German Settlement Bank in West Germany! They’re going to make me into a spectacle!”
“…..”
In fact, even to the lieutenant in this case, Moltke’s anger seemed justified.
German settlement bank.

Only Krupp’s Schaffhausenshire Bank has not joined.
Nevertheless, inviting them to the assembly was intended to isolate them.
‘Do you want us to feel alienated? That’s awful.’
Even the lieutenant himself feels awful, but what about Brigadier Moltke?
Whoops…. Whoops….
Moltke, unable to cool his anger, took the knife and exhaled harshly.
hands are trembling
Everyone looks excited.
The lieutenant sighed inwardly.
“Then I’ll pass it on to you as non-participant…”
“for a moment.”
Moltke raised his hand and restrained it.
And Moltke’s remarks that followed were truly shocking.
“I attend.”
“Yes?”
“You said you would attend.”
Sreung.
Moltke brought the sword back to its scabbard. He looked calmer than ever.
At the same time, it looked dangerous.
“Any Prussian soldier must not avoid a duel in the house.”
Moltke folded the invitation and put it in his arms.
“I think we need to properly imprint the blue kid who provoked the main building what a Prussian Junker is in the German Empire.”
The lieutenant kept his mouth shut.
Whoever looked at it, Moltke was genuinely angry.
“You prepare my ceremonial carriage.”
“…..Yes.”
A fierce fire blazed in Moltke’s eyes.
He clenched his hand so hard it shattered.
“We’re heading to Frankfurt.”
***
Frankfurt.
The head of a social church near the former headquarters of the Rothschilds in Germany.
The front door made of iron fences is opened by the bodyguard, and a row of black carriages enters the church hall. The party attendees who entered the social hall were not able to keep their mouths shut at the size of the German Settlement Bank’s spending.
The splendid size of the luxurious mansion was different from its momentum.
Two iron knights guarding the entrance to the mansion.
Huge chandeliers adorn the high ceilings.
Luxurious sculptures placed on stone tables.
Paintings of masters were hung on the huge white wall with the stairs.
“…Damn it. The German Settlement Bank is using the money properly.”
“Hey, look at the banquet hall over there. Isn’t that a Bösendorfer grand piano? It also looks like a rare model, how did you get one that’s hard to find?”
“I got a mansion that was built in a Rococo style, too. You can see the traces of the Detroit governor’s work everywhere. You know the tastes of us Germans. I feel respected.”
Then came Wagner’s song.
The attendees both exclaimed and looked around the banquet hall slowly.
But it wasn’t just a fancy banquet hall waiting for them.
The heads of the German private bank.
central bank leaders.
High-level legislators from each state.
In addition, all stakeholders of the German Settlement Bank attended the General Assembly of the German Settlement Bank.
The attendance of the president of the society began to roar at the appearance of the giants.
“The head of the Central Bank of Württemberg was also present.”
“The same goes for Baden.”
“Isn’t that the president of the North German Bank? It was true that Hamburg joined.”
“There is also the president of the Industrial Bank of Darmstadt.”
This general meeting was a large-scale social church attended by not only board-level executives, but also the heads of working groups.
From the first meeting, do not firmly hit the baton in the board room.
It was held for the purpose of having fun.
So, most of the attendees attended with the feeling of being familiar with the giants.
Purneung-
At that time, a majestic carriage came into the garden along with the rough steed of the horse.
“Hey, look over there. Isn’t that the German Imperial flag?”
“I’ve seen it once. That’s a Prussian general-level protocol.”
The protocol of the black chariot and cavalry.
Ui Jeon-ae, a high-ranking member of the German Imperial Army, drew attention.
An employee of the social church president shouted loudly.
“Helmut von Moltke, the brigadier general of the great German Imperial Army and the chairman of Krupp Heavy Industries, is here!”
Clap clap clap!
A thunderous applause broke out.
Even so, the German fantasies and respect for the German Imperial Army were true.
The appearance of the Prussian military magnate immediately heated up the atmosphere of the social leader.
However, the reaction of the chief executive was 180 degrees different.
“Is the author Brigadier Moltke?”
“You’re a Prussian minion. How did you come to Krupp’s refusal?”
“At least it’s obvious. You came from Prussia or Berlin Palace to check the German settlement bank. I want you to leave soon.”
leaving behind all those reactions.
Moltke looked around the church head with a hard face, but did not respond.
‘huh. Was he a kid who knew how to spend money?’
Moltke frowned, but could not help but admire the elaborately decorated banquet hall. It was so glamorous that it made me feel like I was betraying my honor as a Junker.
Like the palace of Sanssouci, where Frederick the Great demonstrated the flute, the banquet hall touched the nostalgia of Germans.
‘I don’t like it.’
Moltke felt like he was starting to lose.
‘You seem very angry.’
I was looking down at it from the second floor.
“Here, the main character has arrived.”
August Thyssen.
The chairman of Thyssen Steel came to me with a bottle of wine. In his other hand was a bottle of Coca-Cola with a glass.
“Haha, where did you get that from again?”
“Rumor has it that a Detroit Morgan living in the United States is a Coke maniac who is crazy about Coca-Cola. Seeing you happy, I think the rumors are true.”
Chairman Thyssen handed the glass with a pleasant smile. And then took the lid off.
profit.
“I’ll drink thanks.”
“I wish you all the best in the future.”
visor-
We toasted each other.
After dipping his lips with a sip of wine, Chairman Thyssen looked downstairs.
“You look like an angry tomato by the way.”
“Pop-! Kolok Kolok.”
I was caught off guard by President Thyssen’s perfect analogy.
President Thyssen shrugged slyly.
“The view from the second floor is good, but the noise of the social hall is too loud. I think you have to go down to the first floor to overhear the story.”
“It doesn’t seem necessary.”
I wiped the corners of my mouth that had been splashed with Coke and hid behind the pillar. President Thyssen followed me behind the pillar as I hid.
“But why is he breathing behind the pillar…”
“Shh.”
I covered my mouth with my index finger.
He pointed towards the stairs, where Moltke was coming up talking with a man who looked like a yamsaeng.
“……”
President Thyssen and I held our breath.
Instead, I opened my ears.
I needed to figure out what kind of greeting it was.
“Brother-in-law, are you enjoying the party? This seems to be the first of many years of such a grand party.”
“The Americans said they only had money, so they mimicked German-made bizarrely perfectly.”
At Yamsaengi’s words, Moltke was not happy with it.
“You seem even more annoyed because there’s nothing wrong with it.”
President Thyssen spoke so quietly that only me could hear it.
That statement seemed correct.
Yamseng noticed that Moltke was feeling uncomfortable and quickly changed the topic.
“What did Brigadier-sama why did you all visit?”
“Speak as if I came to a place I shouldn’t be.”
“Oh, no. It’s not that, I remember hearing that the German Settlement Bank rejected the offer. Hehe.”
The man who looked like a yamsaenggi rubbed his hands sublimely.
Moltke chuckled.
“I turned down the offer. But an invitation came in. It seems that the person who invited me is not seen.”
Moltke looked down on the first floor through the eyes of a hawk.
He probably went up to the second floor to find me. But as soon as he realized I wasn’t there, Moltke smirked.
“The person who invited me does not appear…”
Moltke said in a loud voice like hello.
“They said they grew up without my mother. They didn’t even have a home education. Poor guy.”
‘……’
drop.
For a moment, I felt something in my head was cut off.
