Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1012: Countdown to the Destruction of the Morgan Consortium

As early as a few years ago, when Lu Shaohua attacked the American financial market in anger, the Morgan Consortium retaliated against the Phoenix Group. Then, Lu Shaohua attacked the Morgan Consortium again, making it extremely embarrassed.

After that attack, the Morgan Consortium was considered to have regressed. Over the years, the Rockefeller Consortium has suppressed them, making it even more difficult for the Morgan Consortium to raise its head. At that time, Lu Shaohua was defined as a partner of the Rockefeller Consortium, and he had an agreement with old Rockefeller to completely destroy the Morgan Consortium.

Of course, getting rid of the Morgan Consortium did not bring Lu Shaohua no good. His benefit was that he obtained all the oil industries of the Rockefeller Consortium. Well, he obtained them by buying them, but the price he paid was not equal. It was a price less than n times the market value.

Now that the financial crisis is about to come, the stock market has already shown a downward trend. If Lu Shaohua were to unite with the Rockefeller Consortium at this time and strike back at the Morgan Consortium, it would not be difficult to destroy the Morgan Consortium.

Don't forget, it has been 6 years since the last attack on the Morgan Consortium. During these 6 years, the Morgan Consortium has been suppressed by the Rockefeller Consortium in every way. Its strength is not as good as it used to be, and the Phoenix Group has become much stronger. With the combination of the two groups and the appeal of Phoenix Financial, I believe that the Morgan Consortium will soon become a shabby consortium, and its collapse is only a matter of time.

Oil. Lu Shaohua's main target is oil. He wants to take over the remaining 50% of the oil industry under the Rockefeller Foundation and further enhance Phoenix Petroleum's strength and influence in the oil field.

Yes, it's time to destroy the Morgan Consortium. Think about how powerful the Morgan Consortium was back then. They dared to challenge Lu Shaohua and even coveted the Phoenix Group's industrial assets. This made Lu Shaohua furious. If it had not been impossible to destroy the Morgan Consortium in one blow, Lu Shaohua would have destroyed it that year.

The Morgan Consortium has continued to exist until now because Lu Shaohua is just waiting for an opportunity to eliminate them. Now that the opportunity has come, how can Lu Shaohua not take action?

No one who dares to offend Tai Sui will have a good ending.

The Morgan Consortium had offended Lu Shaohua, so their fate was already determined and they would disappear in the long river of history.

It was precisely because Lu Shaohua was preparing to take action against the Morgan Consortium that Lu Shaohua focused his attention on Phoenix Petroleum Company. Because once Lu Shaohua took action against the Morgan Consortium, according to the agreement between Lu Shaohua and old Rockefeller, they would get the remaining 50% of the oil industry handed over to Lu Shaohua.

It would be impossible to take over 50% of the Rockefeller Group's oil industry quickly without certain preparations. Considering the current situation, if Lu Shaohua cannot take it over quickly, he will inevitably be affected by the financial crisis.

Lu Shaohua gave Phoenix Petroleum Company one year to prepare. Of course, during this year, they also had other tasks, such as selling oil at high prices and hoarding funds. Part of the funds would be used to purchase oil at a low price in the future, and part of the funds would be used to take over the Rockefeller Consortium's 50% of the oil industry.

It is undeniable that after Lu Shaohua gave an order, the people below did not dare to neglect it. The entire Phoenix Petroleum operated at high speed and acted according to Lu Shaohua's orders.

After doing all this, two days had passed.

Two days ago, Li Zhijie called and said that the transaction in Iran had been completed and he would come to Hong Kong. However, Li Zhijie did not come immediately. Instead, he chose to stay in Iran for two more days to do some finishing work.

Now it is finally completed. All the oil fields have been taken over and personnel have been arranged to carry out preparations for the development of the oil fields. Li Zhijie has nothing to do in Iran and it is time for him to come to Hong Kong.

That evening, the flight that Li Zhijie was on landed at the Hong Kong International Airport. Outside the airport, a convoy of cars was already waiting there. When Li Zhijie walked out of the airport with more than 20 bodyguards, he just got into the car and left.

Li Zhijie arrived in Hong Kong, but he did not go back to his home. Instead, he went straight to Lu Shaohua's villa. It was not that Li Zhijie did not want to go home to see his children and wife first, but Li Zhijie knew that Lu Shaohua was waiting for him.

Anyway, he has already arrived in Hong Kong and will probably stay there for a while. During this time, he can make up to his wife and children, but he dare not neglect Lu Shaohua's affairs. So, he did not go home after getting off the plane, but rushed to Lu Shaohua's villa.

Looking at Lu Shaohua who was a little tired, Lu Shaohua couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and at the same time, he felt a little helpless!

Yes, he was waiting for Li Zhijie, but Lu Shaohua didn't let Li Zhijie go straight to him without going home, and looking at the current situation, Li Zhijie definitely didn't go home first. "You didn't go home?

Li Zhijie did not answer, but he shook his head, which explained everything and confirmed Lu Shaohua's guess.

Lu Shaohua's bitter smile became even more intense. At the same time, Lu Shaohua couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "With such people to help, why worry about not being strong!"

Yes, with the help of people like Li Zhijie, Lu Shaohua will surely become stronger. Moreover, facts have proven that it was because of Li Zhijie's trip to Africa to form the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group that Lu Shaohua has the strong backing it has today.

Looking at the somewhat old Li Zhijie, Lu Shaohua's thoughts went back to the past. At that time, Li Zhijie was still young, and he, Lu Shaohua, was only ten years old. In other people's eyes, he was just a child.

In the blink of an eye, nearly twenty years have passed. Li Zhijie is already a middle-aged man, and Lu Shaohua is nearly thirty years old and already the father of two children. With the changing times, every little thing in the past has become a thing of the past.

"Let the people below go out and find something to eat first. We can't mistreat our brothers who have been through life and death with us." Lu Shaohua waved his hand and said softly.

Li Zhijie has more than 20 bodyguards around him, Lu Shaohua knows that, all of them are strong and skilled people, and they are also survivors of the battlefield, who quit the ranks of mercenaries and serve as bodyguards for Li Zhijie.

Hearing this, Li Zhijie nodded, took out his cell phone and made a call. He muttered for a while, then hung up the phone. Then he smiled at Lu Shaohua and said, "It's solved."

"Yeah." Lu Shaohua nodded and smiled, then said, "Let's go, it's time to eat, let's eat together."

There is a large dining hall in Lu Shaohua's villa. It is very lively for three meals a day. Those who come here to eat include Li Shangkui and others, as well as people who protect Qin Sichen, and the bodyguards of Qin Sichen and Huo Xiaoyue. All gather together.

However, although the canteen is large, it also has a limit to the number of people it can accommodate. For example, now the number of people it can accommodate has reached the limit, so Lu Shaohua asked the bodyguards around Li Zhijie to go out and find a hotel to eat instead of going to the canteen with them.

As for Li Zhijie, Lu Shaohua asked him to go to the cafeteria with him. There is a trick to this, and that trick is for the former boss to meet his former subordinates.

Those who were sent to Hong Kong to serve as bodyguards were all from the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group without exception. It can be said that they were all Li Zhijie's subordinates before. Now that Li Zhijie has arrived, it is necessary for him to meet them.

Just as Lu Shaohua imagined, when the people below saw Li Zhijie, they all greeted him warmly and started chatting with him. However, with Lu Shaohua present, everyone seemed a little restrained. Not only did they speak much more quietly, but they also talked as little as possible.

Lu Shaohua naturally knew that everyone felt a little restrained because of his presence, but he didn't say anything. He just smiled and motioned for everyone to sit down. Only after everyone was present did Lu Shaohua announce that the meal was ready.

They ate and chatted, and soon the dinner was over. However, all the bodyguards who had eaten first did not leave. Only Lu Shaohua's family members left, such as Qin Sichen and An Teng Chiyoko. After eating, they said hello to Li Zhijie and left.

Soon, only the bodyguards, Lu Shaohua and Li Zhijie were left at the dinner table. After they had finished their meal, Lu Shaohua immediately asked the servants to clear the table and ordered them to go to the kitchen to prepare some dishes to go with the wine.

After giving all the instructions, Lu Shaohua turned his head and asked Li Shangkui, "Brother Li, didn't I get two boxes of Wuliangye from my father-in-law some time ago? Where did you put them?"

"Two boxes of Wuliangye?" Li Shangkui frowned and muttered.

But because Li Shangkui's muttering was so loud, almost everyone present heard it, including Lu Shaohua, who couldn't help but wonder, "Could they have secretly drunk it all?"

"No, that's absolutely not the case." Li Shangkui immediately refuted, but soon his expression fell, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't drink it all secretly, but I did drink two bottles."

"..." Lu Shaohua was speechless for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's two bottles less, so have someone bring them over. I'll drink the two boxes of Wuliangye tonight."

“Got it.” Seeing that Lu Shaohua did not blame him, Li Shangkui responded, called the two of them, and immediately walked towards the underground warehouse.

Soon, two boxes of Wuliangye, short of two bottles, were brought up, and the side dishes were almost ready. Needless to say, the bottles were opened and the wine was poured, and a drinking competition finally began.

It's just that there are too many people. After all, two bottles of Wuliangye are only a dozen bottles. It's really like too many monks and too little porridge. Each person can only drink one or two cups, and still can't drink as much as Yin'a. Fortunately, there is never a shortage of wine in Lu Shaohua's villa. When they drink it all, they drink other wines, such as red wine, xo, Louis XIII, everything else. As long as you can drink, there is enough wine.

In this way, the drinking session lasted for two hours. After two hours, everyone dispersed, but no one left drunk, including Lu Shaohua and Li Zhijie, neither of them was drunk at all.

Seeing that Li Zhijie was still sober, Lu Shaohua didn't say much. He asked Li Zhijie to go upstairs and follow him into the study. It was obvious that Lu Shaohua had something important to discuss with Li Zhijie.
