Chapter 36 The Great Robbery
The next morning, Josie, who had just finished breakfast, sat in the living room and read the newspaper.
It's just his face, which looks a little weird, and he doesn't know whether he is angry or happy.
"Honey, what's the matter?" Margot came over, saw his face, kissed his cheek, and asked with a smile.
"To be honest, I find it hard to believe that the newspaper is talking about me!" Josie said helplessly as she handed the newspaper to Margot.
This is a Chicago Tribune, the earliest newspaper in Chicago and the third largest newspaper in the United States.
Margot finally read the newspaper and was happy.
The headline on the front page is "Three Millions, the Anti-French XXX Determination of the Austrian Noble Boy!" "
The article reported that at the fundraising reception last night, Margot bought three million war bonds in the name of Josie.
It's just that after the spring and autumn brushwork is modified, the painting style of the newspaper content becomes strange.
In the article, Josie and his dead parents are described as a heroic noble family of the Austrian Anti-French XX. When Germany invaded Austria, they were persecuted and had to cross the sea and come to the United States.
After arriving in the United States, Josie's parents still did not forget the hatred of the country and the family, and they had been running for a long time to fight against the French Communist Party.
In the end, he died unfortunately due to an accident.
And Josie inherited the legacy of his parents, continued to work hard for the anti-French XX struggle, scattered all his wealth, and spent three million dollars, just to support the anti-French XX struggle in the United States.
The impassioned text in the article, Josie can hardly believe, is describing him.
When did he become so great?
And when did their family become nobles?
Oh, by the way, during the interview after the fundraising yesterday, when the reporter asked the family, he mentioned that his grandfather with this body was an officer of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and he did have the title of Freedom Knight.
But the **** Austro-Hungarian Empire has been destroyed for more than 20 years, and the Habsburg Dynasty has also become extinct, okay? His grandfather also died in the First World War.
I didn't expect that reporter to deliberately add fuel to this aspect, which is outrageous.
But thinking about it carefully, Americans who seem to be nouveau riche have always had aristocratic plots, and it seems that it is not incomprehensible.
Of course, the reason why the newspaper wrote this was mainly to create momentum for the sale of war bonds.
The underlying meaning is: Even that fellow with the moustache has invested so much in supporting the war. As American citizens, why don’t you go the extra mile to buy it?
"Isn't this good? At least our goal has been achieved. After today, I believe that the whole of Chicago, and even many places in the United States, will know your name. This will definitely be very beneficial for you to start a business in the future." Margot smiled and said, "And in my heart, you are the greatest one."
"But it's not fair to you!" Josie sighed. In fact, he didn't want this title, but Margot's attitude was unusually firm, and he didn't even allow Josie to mention the fact that she spent the money. If you dare to say a word, I dare to burn the bond with an actual value of six million.
Faced with this kind of soft food that was forced into her mouth, Josie really couldn't refuse.
"Do we still need to talk about this between us? If you really feel that you owe me, you should set up the factory as soon as possible and make the company bigger." Margot gave Josie a hug again, and said very gently.
The gentle encouragement from the beautiful sister made Josie instantly feel full of energy.
"Oh my God, look at this, the Lebiler family treasure was robbed, a security guard was injured, a robber was shot, well-known crime expert Erwin Lyndon Schneider may be involved, the policeman said It's true, the treasure house of Uncle John's family has indeed been stolen." At this time, Margot turned the newspaper to the second page, and suddenly exclaimed when she saw the content on it.
"Yes, I saw it, but don't worry about your Uncle John because of this situation, the insurance company is much more anxious than the Leibil family." Josie said casually.
In normal times, this kind of big case can make headlines.
But in this kind of war period, Josie couldn't overwhelm the limelight.
The United States is now constantly shaping anti-French XX heroes in all walks of life, all for the war.
But just like what Josie said, the most urgent thing in this kind of case is often not the victim itself, but the insurance company. The one that was stolen by the Lebile family was a large commercial vault rather than the family’s private treasury, so Must have been insured.
Yes, there is an insurance company!
As soon as Josie reminded her, Margot, who was still a little worried about her Uncle John, instantly felt relieved.
"By the way, that Amory barrister, how is he?" At this moment, Josie asked suddenly.
"Lawyer Amory? Why did you mention him?" Margot was a little surprised.
"Well, it's nothing. Isn't he one of the most famous legal professionals in the city? I'm going to form a company soon, and I will definitely need a lot of legal support." Josie didn't say that he thought the other party was suspicious, but casually asked for a reason.
"In terms of law, according to Uncle John, he is indeed the most professional, but as a human being..." Margot couldn't help but pause when she said this.
"What's wrong?" Josie asked curiously.
"I heard that this barrister's private life is also quite bad. He has a little girl outside who can be his granddaughter as a lover. I heard about this when I asked the private detective to investigate the dead ghost. " Margot whispered.
Hearing this, Josie couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Beautiful sister is obviously talking about the barrister, but she is actually beating him.
To be honest, Sister Beauty is really worrying too much. With a top-notch beauty like her here, there are not many other things that can make him fancy.
Just thinking about this, the figure of Sabrina automatically appeared in his mind.
Shaking his head, stop making trouble, without the star halo bonus, the little girl is just like that.
"I'm going to McKinsey for an interview later, do you want to go with me?" Josie decisively changed the subject.
The McKinsey company he mentioned has nothing to do with the anti-social McKinseyism of the 1950s, it is just a management consulting company.
This is a world-class management consulting company in the future.
Josie wants to build three factories at once, and he can’t do it alone, so he needs to recruit people and professional managers.
One of the businesses of management consulting companies is headhunting.
The professional manager system and headhunting business in the United States started very early. They appeared in the 1920s and were quite perfect in the 1930s.
Last week, Josie had already mentioned his personnel needs to the other party, and on Friday, he had already given the resumes of some candidates.
So the interview he is going to refers to him interviewing others, not others interviewing him.
"I won't go, I'm not interested in these things, and I've already got a set of equipment from Uncle John, and it should be delivered today, and I'll have to be busy with that pink heart for a while." Margot said that the pink heart is the giant pink diamond, and she is going to cut this precious diamond by herself when it is not suitable to see the light.
