Chapter 767: 263, Tarot Society_2

“Donnie, if you’re thinking about acquiring Sinclair Oil at this time, I’d advise you to think twice. No one is going to sell their shares in Sinclair Oil now!”

Andrew Mellon warned Donnie with concern.

He knew that Donnie owned a significant number of shares in Sinclair Oil Corporation, but now that Sinclair Oil had secured the mining rights to the Baku Oil Field, it meant that the company had struck gold.

One could imagine that once this news was made public, Sinclair Oil’s stock price would shoot up like a rocket.

By then, if anyone wanted to take over Sinclair Oil Corporation, it would require at least several billion US Dollars.

Andrew Mellon believed that among individuals in the United States, Donnie held the most cash, but the amount was at most fluctuating in the tens of millions.

Aside from a few consortiums such as Morgan, Rockefeller, and DuPont, Andrew Mellon couldn’t think of anyone else in the United States with the capacity to accomplish this feat.

Donnie nodded and said, “I’m naturally aware of the difficulty in acquiring Sinclair Oil, but I believe Shell won’t easily admit defeat. Andrew, you haven’t forgotten about the Iran Oil Field incident, have you?”

In the battle for the Iran Oil Fields, Shell also lost to America’s Rockefeller. But what happened in the end?

Rockefeller still didn’t secure the oil exploration rights for the Iran Oil Fields because of the political power wielded by the United Kingdom, standing behind Shell.

As I’ve said before, considering the significance of the Baku Oil Field, I don’t believe Shell will just concede defeat so easily.

“No, things have changed now. Even if the United Kingdom wants to do something, we won’t agree to it!”

Coolidge asserted earnestly to Donnie.

Donnie understood what Coolidge meant, which was that the United States of now was no longer the United States before World War I. The country was growing stronger and would no longer accept political coercion from the United Kingdom!

“This I do believe,” Donnie didn’t deny Coolidge’s words, but added, “Yet such competition isn’t only on the surface. I believe by now, the United Kingdom’s MI6 must have already taken action. This isn’t over yet!”

Donnie stated with conviction.

“Donnie, have you heard some news?”

General Pan Xing became somewhat restless at this moment. Although MI6 had always kept a low profile, its existence wasn’t a secret among the global elite.

The involvement of MI6 in the matter and the presence of American financial groups on the other side meant General Pan Xing couldn’t be indifferent!

Andrew Mellon and Coolidge were both looking at Donnie with puzzled and shocked expressions; this matter had evolved beyond a simple business rivalry.

“There are certainly some tidbits of news, but none that I can confirm,” Donnie didn’t deny this, but continued, “Based on the information I have, along with what I know about the British and an analysis of the importance of the Baku Oil Field, although there’s no concrete news, I’m confident my judgment is correct!”

As soon as Donnie arrived in Washington, Coolidge had informed him of the Soviet Union’s decision.

Although Coolidge claimed he hadn’t helped Donnie, in reality, it was a significant aid for him.

Upon learning of it, Donnie immediately contacted Magichi and put Magichi’s entire Soviet network to work.

Eventually, Donnie learned that right after the Soviet made their decision, the British Prime Minister Bonar Law contacted the Soviets at once, expressing his incomprehension over the matter.

Since the issue had directly alarmed the British Prime Minister, Donnie was convinced that even if the Soviets hadn’t given the British any leverage, they wouldn’t just give up so easily.

Fang Yu walked out of the hospital room.

At the door, some doctors who had witnessed him saving a life burst into applause.

Who could have expected that he was actually a Divine Doctor capable of Resurrection? Such Medical Skill is a rare find indeed!

Xu Zhaopei and Xiao Ting also followed out.

Xiao Ting blustered, “Kid, I’m a man who distinguishes between gratitude and grudges. You saved Xiao Wei, and I should thank you, but since you’ve hit my people, let’s call it even. Don’t cross me in the future!”

After saying that, Xiao Ting turned and left.

“Who should stay away from whom, that’s still undecided,” Fang Yu said with a light chuckle.

Of course, this was just Donnie’s hypothesis. After all, even without the Democratic Party or British MI6, Donnie would have found a way to bring the scandal to light.

After all, Donnie had long considered Sinclair Oil to be his industry!

And now, attributing this affair to MI6, when the Soviet Union learned of the British undermining their collaboration with Sinclair Oil, given the Soviet character, they would surely hold a grudge against the British.
