Chapter 1063: 363. The Fisherman Gains the Benefit_3
“Don’t they worry about us pulling out of this deal?” Felix Warburg asked loudly.
“Why should they worry? With the Florida real estate market in its current state, they are not worried about buyers at all. Since they have already decided to exit Florida, do they care who takes over?”
Paul Warburg snorted coldly, “Moreover, they are confident that we wouldn’t possibly abandon this deal now!”
Felix Warburg was merely voicing his complaints, knowing full well their current situation. If the Rockefeller Family hadn’t gotten involved earlier, they could indeed pull out. Even without acquiring the Venus Bank properties in Florida, they would still be the largest real estate firm there.
But now the Rockefeller Family is involved, and their strength surpasses that of the Warburg Family. If they utilize the Florida land bought from Venus Bank to fully enter Florida.
The Warburg Family would then face a formidable rival in Florida.
Then, trying to fully control Florida might be a lifelong endeavor for them!
What are they saying about walking out of Florida?
“Can we join forces with the Rockefeller Family? If both of us team up, Venus Bank would naturally have no choice but to lower the price!”
Felix Warburg proposed his idea.
“I disagree!” Paul Warburg immediately rejected the suggestion, “If this deal is Donnie teaming up with Old Rockefeller to take over our Warburg Family’s business a second time?”
The last incident with Venus, Morgan, Mellon, and Chase forming Four-Sided Investment to annex Warburg Company taught Paul Warburg a deep lesson!
For the moment, Felix Warburg had no other ideas.
“I know my suspicion lacks evidence, but you should realize that even if we join forces, Venus Bank would still hold the dominant voice. Based on my negotiations with Cafe Jackson today, it’s clear they won’t sell these lands below market price, so allying with the Rockefeller Family holds no benefit!”
Paul Warburg explained his second reason!
“Then what do we do now?” Felix Warburg asked.
Paul Warburg said, “I need you to do three things. First, contact Marx and hope he can raise more cash for us in Germany. Second, contact the Rothschild Family for additional cash assistance. Third, call Morgan to seek a loan!”
Although these are three conditions, it essentially comes down to one thing: Paul Warburg needs more money!
With more cash in hand, he can ensure this business venture goes smoothly!
Felix Warburg replied helplessly, “I got it. I’ll call them now! But do we really need to call Morgan?”
Paul Warburg affirmed, “Call them, but keep the loan amount manageable. We absolutely cannot allow them to control us in this matter again!”
“Understood!”
Just as Felix Warburg was about to hang up, Paul Warburg remembered the incident in Atlantic City today.
“By the way, one more thing you should note…” Paul then informed Felix Warburg about the radium products issue.
But Felix Warburg, after hearing the news, didn’t take it seriously: “Paul, I’ve never heard of any hazards related to radium products. The whole US is using radium products; if they truly posed a hazard, then surely the entire United States would be wrong.
In my opinion, Donnie might be plotting something and using the radium products issue as a decoy!”
Paul Warburg retorted angrily, “You think this is just a regular business plan? From what I analyze, with Atlantic City’s approach, even if they bribed the media, it wouldn’t take a week for the news to spread to Philadelphia and New York, ultimately affecting Donnie’s reputation.”
Felix Warburg hesitated for a moment, “But there’s no scientific basis for this?”
Paul Warburg replied, “Whether there’s scientific evidence or not is Donnie Block’s concern, not ours. However, since he values this issue so much, it’s wise to keep an eye on it!”
Felix Warburg thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I understand!”
Suddenly, Felix Warburg quietly suggested, “Paul, should we spread this news, or tell William Bailey and his people?”
The famous Radium Thorium Water was a product launched by William Bailey’s laboratory.
With so many radium products nationwide, if Donnie’s actions become known to the radium product manufacturers, they would surely take action against Donnie!
That’s what Felix Warburg was considering.
Paul Warburg stopped this line of thought, “Absolutely don’t do that. Currently, the most important thing for us is to acquire as much of Donnie’s land in Florida as possible. I don’t want this matter to become collateral complications; it doesn’t benefit us at all!”
Paul Warburg believes this issue will soon spread, and no promotion from us is needed; radium product manufacturers will eventually know, causing significant trouble for Donnie.
Thus, Paul Warburg decided to take no action on this matter!
Not worth the risk!
