Chapter 107 I Want To Buy A Bank

Just when Wilfred Malik explained the process of meeting Josie to the Council of Nine, and informed Josie that he had controlled the remnants of the European Hydra, and touted his ability as a human being, persuading the rest of the directors to When it was included in the council, Josie himself was not idle.

Forging iron still needs to be hard on your own. If you want to really gain enough voice in the council, relying on Josie's current financial resources and influence is actually somewhat insufficient.

Don't look at him making a fortune in war in Europe before, but to be honest, compared with the big cake of Europe's post-war economic recovery, the money he earned from buying and selling supplies is actually not even mosquito legs.

After all, the real economic giants haven't spoken yet.

If you want to snatch food from the mouths of these predators, you can't do without enough allies.

And to achieve these two goals, there is no conflict.

Just take advantage of it.

What kind of momentum?

Of course it is the same consortium power.

Since the core of Josie's industry is in Chicago, it would be too stupid not to make good use of the influence of the Chicago consortium.

"Josie, you are a rare visitor!" In the office of the president of the Leibil Building, John Leibil said in surprise when he saw Josie visiting.

Regardless of the fact that Josie has been back for more than a month, the wealthy class in Chicago also know that he has made a fortune in Europe, and he has also contributed to the early end of the European war.

But as for how much Josie earned in Europe, most people don't actually have much idea. Without economic entanglements, they didn't deliberately inquire about Josie's actions in Europe.

In addition, after returning to Chicago, Josie basically spent time with his wife and children, keeping a low profile, so even John Lebiler, who was relatively close, didn't know much about Josie's situation.

However, it can also be seen from this point that the Chicago consortium is not as sensitive to capital as other consortiums.

This may also be the world where Josie lived in his previous life. Chicago was gradually eroded by other consortia after World War II and became one of the important reasons why it became a second-rate consortium.

"Haha, didn't Margo just give birth before, so I didn't have time to visit you, John Uncle. Now that the child is almost full moon, and he is very healthy, I am redundant at home." Josie laughed at herself slightly.

"Tsk, why do I think you're here to show off? Don't you know how much I want to have grandchildren? If only my two brats value family as much as you do!" Hearing Josie If so, Johann Lebile couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said.

Elderly people, no matter what country they are in, they definitely like a house full of children and grandchildren.

Today, Johann Lebiler is in his sixties, and his eldest son Reiner is in his forties. He is very promising and has already controlled most of the family business, but it is also because he is too obsessed with the family business that he has never Get married, let alone kids.

What about the second son? He is a playboy with no prospects. He got married twice, but he only got married and didn't have a son.

How could the situation of the two sons make John Lebile, who had always wanted to hold his grandson, happy?

"Haha, John Uncle, you are serious. You are the elder of me and Margo, and you are also the grandfather of the child." Josie also said wittily.

"Speaking of which, the two children haven't been baptized yet, right? Do you want them to be recognized as the godfather of Reiners?" Hearing what Josie said, Lebiler also thought about it and couldn't help suggesting.

"If Margo agrees, I don't have any objections!" Josie was taken aback by Lebile's words, and then said immediately.

Bavarians and Austrians are mostly Catholic, and Josie's parents are no exception.

Although as a time traveler, Josie himself is not religious, but his predecessor was indeed a Catholic.

Although Margot is not a Catholic, she is also a Protestant.

So in theory, their children can be baptized, and to be baptized, a godfather is naturally needed-the so-called godfather and godmother are actually the guarantors of the baptized children in Christian rites.

And the godfather is not just a simple title, they are responsible for the future of their godson and goddaughter.

Even in the law of the United States, godfathers and godmothers often have custody rights second only to biological parents.

That is to say, if the biological parents have an accident, the godfather and godmother have to bear the responsibility of raising... and they only have the responsibility of raising, but they are not qualified to dispose of the property of the godson and goddaughter.

Therefore, in most cases, the existence of godparents is still of great help to children.

To give a more famous example in the United States in Josie's original time and space, it is the actress who played Pepper, Gwyneth Parrott.

Although her father is a producer and her mother is an actor, both of them have average achievements in Hollywood.

But why has Gwyneth Parrott, who has always been bad-tempered and difficult to get along with in the circle, been able to keep all kinds of resources since she was a child, and at the age of 28, she beat a group of powerful actresses and won an Oscar ?

It is because she has a good godfather, Apex director Spielberg!

It's just that Josie never thought about it before.

One who has changed his soul is not a believer, and the second is that if he doesn't feel that he has a cheat, his children will need help from godparents in the future.

But now that John Lebile has proposed it, it seems that he has no need to refuse.

After all, the Leibil family is one of the core controllers of the Chicago consortium.

It is not a bad thing for the children to recognize the heir of the Lebile family as the godfather, and it can also draw in the relationship between the two families.

However, the target is Reiners, the eldest son. If it is the second son, David... Hehe, it is absolutely impossible for Josie and Margot to agree.

Apparently Johann Lebiler understood this too well, and didn't even mention that prodigal bastard.

"Haha, since you don't object, it's easy. I'll ask Reiners to tell Margot later that he regarded Margot as his own sister since he was a child!" Seeing that Josie didn't object, John Lebiler said, Very happy, "By the way, I don't know why you came to me."

"Actually, the reason why I came to John Uncle today is very simple. I want you to be an intermediary to help me acquire the Continental Illinois Bank!" Josie also revealed her real intention at this time.

And John Lebile, who was still immersed in the joy of the two children, couldn't help being surprised when he heard Josie's words at this time.

Buy Continental Illinois Bank? Is this kid talking crazy? ?
