Chapter 110 This hydra is right
The Cathedral of the Holy Name in Chicago is also known as the Cathedral of the Holy Name in Chicago.
As the name suggests, this is a church with a bishop sitting in town, and it is not an ordinary bishop, but a cardinal, the so-called cardinal.
Under the watchful eyes of many dignitaries in Chicago, the cardinal completed the water baptism for the two children, Mike and Carol.
As a father, Josie looked solemn on the surface, but he was full of disapproval in his heart.
Although she pretends to be a believer, because of the constant scandals in the later churches, Josie really doesn't have much affection for Catholicism.
If it weren't for the influence of the church in the Western world, Josie would not engage in such vain things.
The whole baptism process was a bit lengthy, but it went very smoothly.
Even the Cardinal, after seeing the scene where almost the entire Chicago dignitaries gathered today, did not dare to neglect the baptism of the two children.
After the christening ceremony, the meeting place was transferred to Josie's manor.
The ladies were all chirping around the children in the yard, while the men gathered in the living room.
There are not many people, only a dozen or so, but each of them is a heavyweight in various family businesses of the Chicago consortium.
Most of them, Josie has met. After all, Josie has attended many receptions of the Leibil family before, as well as various fundraising galas before.
The members of these consortia have also heard about Josie, a young man who has risen rapidly in the past two years.
And when inviting them, Johann Lebile also vaccinated these people.
So it is naturally impossible for someone to pretend to be a slap in the face. No one is a fool to be able to get mixed up to this level.
"Everyone, I don't need too many introductions for this handsome man by my side. Let us welcome Josie!" John Lebile shouted to everyone beside Josie.
Everyone stood up with dignity and gave warm applause, welcoming Josie to officially join the consortium.
"I'm very glad to be a part of you. I won't talk too much nonsense, just get straight to the point!" Josie raised his hands, interrupted the applause, and then said, "I believe that Mr. Lebiler has already told you all I have already mentioned the reasons why I want to invest in Continental Bank, and I am very grateful to everyone for their support, but I think everyone is most concerned about the situation in Europe."
The matter of Continental Bank was actually finalized long before today's gathering. What Josie wants to talk about now is that everyone will organize a group to go to Europe to make money.
"There is no doubt that the war in Europe has basically ended. Our powerful army has already controlled most of the situation in Europe. After the torment of the war, it can be said that Europe is now in a state of waste, and all walks of life are looking forward to it. Our help... I think everyone who is doing this will not refuse to make a little contribution to our European compatriots, right?" Having said this, Josie showed a pointed smile.
All the people present also smiled knowingly.
They went to Europe, of course, to help, could it be aggression?
Of course, after the help, it is reasonable to charge a small reward.
"I can only say that I was lucky. At the last moment of the European War, I provided a little help to our most powerful army. At the same time, I forged some friendships with the rulers of Britain, France and Austria, but I was helpless. I am alone and weak, and I am really powerless to help my compatriots in Europe alone, so in my future career, I still have to rely on everyone's help..."
Immediately, Josie gave a detailed introduction to the situation in Europe, among which he showed his strength in Europe, which made the Chicago consortium fascinated by Europe, and at the same time strengthened the importance of Josie again.
So far, Josie has officially become a member of the core of the Chicago consortium.
The consortium finally decided that after Christmas, Josie would lead a team to go to Europe to make money.
If you don’t take this opportunity to plow Europe, you will be ashamed to call yourself a capitalist.
After this gathering, Wilfred Malik also came to the door again on behalf of the Council of Nine.
"Your efficiency is really slow. A few days later, I will return to Europe!" In the study, Josie looked at Malik in front of him and said.
"Hey, there are a few guys making trouble, especially that Calvin Chadwick, that guy is extremely opposed to your return to the council seat!" Malik also pretended to be helpless and said by the way. Chadwick applied eye drops.
"Really? Is it because of Whitney? For a mere woman, he regards me as a villain. The helm of Etheldan has a big stomach!" Josie raised her eyebrows and said, although she knew that Ma Rick is taking eye drops, but he also understands that the other party cannot fabricate it out of thin air.
Calvin Chadwick? Hehe, I remember.
"Who says it's not, but fortunately, you have successfully become a core member of the Chicago consortium during this time, and you have taken over Schmidt's power, which makes those old guys value it, otherwise, just relying on my words, This may not be possible!" Malik exclaimed.
"So they've agreed?" Josie asked.
"Of course, they asked you to meet in New York and officially attend the club meeting, but you have to pay attention, they also know that you are going to take the Chicago consortium to Europe to make money, so they want to get a share!" Malik said "Those old guys are holding back, you have to be careful!"
"What? Can they still eat me? Or do you think I will be afraid?" Josie couldn't help laughing.
"Of course I know that you are not afraid, and you will return to your seat when the time comes. It is impossible for those old things to do anything to you, which is against the council's guidelines. But they can't stop them from playing tricks and using normal commercial means to win you over. This is what they are best at." Malik pointed out.
At the beginning of Hydra's establishment, it also made an oath that there should be no infighting between directors.
This infighting mainly refers to the means of force.
You can do whatever you want with the outside world, but you can’t do this between directors, otherwise you will be targeted by everyone.
This is not only to maintain the continuation of the organization, but also to protect the directors themselves-how can an organization with internal disputes last for a long time?
Of course, it's not impossible to do it at all, as long as you do it secretly enough to not be discovered.
But once discovered, just wait to be thrown off the table.
At the beginning, Schmidt was completely abandoned by the council because he violated this article.
However, this restriction prohibiting internal fighting obviously does not include normal business operations.
Back then, the Malik family was overshadowed by several other commercial means.
It's just a commercial means, Josie who is in charge of cheating will be afraid?
If you dare to lie to me, I will use technology to crush you later!
A few days later, Josie and Malik went to New York.
Just like when he joined the Chicago Consortium, after a brief gathering, Josie put on the iconic Hydra emblem and officially became a member of the Hydra organization.
Although Hydra seems to be a mysterious and tall organization.
But you will only understand it after you get in touch with it. Under normal circumstances, it is not much different from ordinary commercial clubs.
In addition to each needing to spend some funds every year as the cost of various cooperation projects, as well as the sharing of important information and political resources, the rest of the time the directors also work independently and are extremely independent.
Except for a few directors, the respective forces of the directors will basically have no communication without orders.
It is precisely because of this loose structure that this organization is more difficult to destroy.
And this is not good news for Josie.
This kind of cooperation method can also help the development of Josie's industry extremely quickly.
But it also made it more difficult for him to want to completely control the entire Hydra.
Fortunately, Josie is young and can afford to wait!
And as Malik reminded before, the council is also preparing to take a share of the European trip.
To be precise, the council was originally planning to carve up Europe after the war, but after the appearance of Josie and the return of the European Hydra branch to the organization, things will become more convenient.
But in addition to these normal actions, Josie, who just got a place in the council, also witnessed the other side of Hydra, and participated in one of the major events.
"Since the war has basically ended, Roosevelt Jr. is not suitable to continue to sit in that position. Otherwise, with his personality, he will have to take action against us in a short time!" At the club meeting, after discussing Joe After discussing matters related to the West and Europe, Thomas Gloucester, the leader of the contemporary council, raised a new topic, which directly shocked Josie.
Good guy, Hydra is indeed a Hydra.
Sure enough, he acted brilliantly.
Who is Roosevelt Jr.? The one in the White House, of course.
Because there was another President Theodore Roosevelt before, and now Roosevelt is Franklin Roosevelt, the former is the latter's distant cousin.
It is precisely because of the relationship between the two that the former is called Old Roosevelt, and now this one is called Little Roosevelt.
Today happens to be the election year, and this period of time also happens to be a critical moment for the election. The council is obviously preparing to interfere with the election, and Roosevelt can no longer be allowed to be president.
"I'm afraid this will not be easy, right? Now that one is at the peak of his reputation!" Josie said tentatively. As a big capitalist, Josie also didn't want Roosevelt to continue to be president. A president with too much power is not a good thing for any big capitalist or various consortiums.
And Roosevelt happened to have it all.
In the original time and space, Roosevelt was still the winner of this election, and it was a big victory.
But within a few months of the victory, on the eve of the complete end of the war, it was a coincidence.
Whether there is any problem here, Josie is not sure.
But what Josie is sure of now is that if the Roosevelt of this world continues to be elected and gets lost, there will be a big problem here.
And it is likely to be related to myself.
Hiss... It's quite exciting to think about it.
This hydra is right.
"Hehe, Josie Kahn, since he joined the council, he has to get used to the council's rules of conduct. So what if he is elected? There are so many presidents elected, and there are also many accidents. Is he still missing? ?” Calvin Chadwick, who was sitting across from Josie, gave him a provocative look, Shi Shiran said.
