Morgan Tower.
Inside the office that was so luxurious that it was enviable, the voice of Half the Harbor Langdon could be heard.
“Mr. Soros, I think we should join forces.”
Inside the luxurious office, Soros looked at Half the Harbor Langdon in front of him and said calmly, “Mr. Langdon, calm down. As far as I know, your assets in Somerland are now gradually being engulfed and sold off, leaving only the industries that are not available overseas. Please tell me, what else can you use to fight Jasper now?”
Half the Harbor Langdon‘s face sank. Soros’s words were undoubtedly very hurtful. If it were the past, he might not have wasted time talking to Soros. However, he needed something from Soros. Half the Harbor Langdon had to endure this even if Soros’ attitude made him feel humiliated.
“Mr. Soros, I need the help of the Morgan family and I will be your closest ally!” Half the Harbor Langdon continued to show his sincerity.
Soros lit a cigar, took two puffs, and looked at Half the Harbor Langdon.
“Mr. Langdon, I persuaded you long before you returned to Somerland that you should not go back in a hurry, and you should transfer all your industry to the United States, a country full of holiness and freedom. But you insisted on going back. Now, all your assets have benefited others. What do you have left now? Even if I can help you, what value can you provide me after I help you?”
Facing Soros’s repeated questions, Half the Harbor Langdon slowly closed his eyes. After a long time, Soros spoke before him.
“So far, not everyone in Somerland has enough to eat. They don’t have a high-end manufacturing industry, and they can only be reduced to the world‘s factory because they don’t have their own core technology. If we can set up factories in the countries around Somerland and develop real estate, we can provide a large number of employment opportunities for those countries and promote their economic development. Over time, once a certain situation has formed, it will become a fatal threat to Somerland.”
There was a professional smile on the corner of Soros‘ mouth, “Mr. Langdon, you are a smart person, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation.”
Half the Harbor Langdon thought for a while and then he stood up slowly, “Pleasure working with you.”
The two shook hands lightly and their hands parted in less than a second. It looked as if they were in harmony on the surface, but with an underlying disagreement.
