LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 13
＜ DWM. (3) >
“……Kris. for a moment.”
I somehow suppressed my pounding heart and asked Chris. Since the amount is an amount, I needed to make sure he was really willing to pay.
A lot of money came out of the grass.
“A total of $3.5 million. Aren’t you spending too much dollars just because you had some fun with Coca-Cola bonds?”
earlier this year.
The Coca-Cola Company and The Coca-Cola Bottling Company prepaid their bonds. It seems that convertible bonds were a bit burdensome for Mr. Candler, but Coca-Cola’s yield exceeded 100% because he took over the bonds at a bargain price of less than half.
In a word, invitations.
When I gave him a suspicious look, Chris waved his hand in embarrassment.
“No, I just came to the conclusion that if I wanted to arm the independent Irish groups, I would have to have an estimate like that when I thought about the pistols and rifles, the explosives and the bullets.”
“……”
“Ts. To be honest, I had some fun with Coca-Cola bonds. Our family is also clamoring for the need to be armed as soon as possible.”
“Aren’t you planning to recover the money you invested in a hedge fund?”
Then I went out
A $13 million S-class fund invested $7 million in DWM, and if $6 million is withdrawn from it, it becomes a debt as much as the gap.
‘Of course, even if it becomes a debt, it doesn’t matter that the North American continental business right itself is a huge hit, but the financial pressure itself is a bit bad.’

Of course, if you withdraw $6 million and deposit $3.5 million, it doesn’t really matter. From a fund manager’s point of view, withdrawing money for management is a very bad thing to take away toys from children.
Chris let out a laugh.
“Haha, you look like you have lost even the candy you are biting on. Morgan Children. Are you going to close a 100%-yielding fund just because my family is crazy? I don’t think I’ll be able to pour any more.”
“……Then I’m glad.”
“Instead, I would like the payment to be made in three-year installments.”
Chris raised three fingers.
3.5 million dollars, 100 billion in Hyundai Korean Won. It was easy to pay three years in installments between friends.
“Why not? For $3.5 million, three years is gum.”
“Thanks.”
“The transaction is established.”
We laughed and shook hands.
“Oh, yes, Chris.”
“Well?”
“I would have received such a generous advance payment like this. show me something good Follow.”
Drooling-
As I woke up with a grin, Chris put on a questionable expression.
***
Late January 1898.
Connecticut State.
A large conveyor belt gun factory.
Connecticut State.
It is considered one of the richest states of the 50 states in modern America. At the same time, however, it is also a gathering place for firearms companies, where the headquarters of Winchester and Colt are located.
I looked up at the black iron metal piled up in the gun factory warehouse.
‘By the way, the MG08 is already coming out. No matter how much I asked for the technology to transform the Maxim machine gun, I made a machine gun that would only be released in 1908.’
He’s also a monster who owns both Mouser and FN.
They said that when you want new technology, you can replace the technicians. Since it is replaced by a Tier 1 company, the technology seems to be stamped out as gum in 10 years. As an arms dealer, I tried to confide in Chris, but the MG08 is overflowing.
Anyway, I showed Chris the MG08.
“This is a machine gun.”
“machine gun? Oh, the guns those Raimis use to slaughter?”
“uh. That’s it.”
shudder. shudder.
Instead of DWM’s dispatched technicians, a factory worker installed the machine gun at my request. The installed machine gun was based on the Maxim machine gun and was modified by DWM firearms technicians, so they were specialized in installing it, but I had something to show Chris, so I took a novice factory worker.
I swept the machine gun by hand.
“But the utility of this bastard isn’t just about mass destruction. It has a more terrifying effect than that. It has a tremendous utility that can overturn modern warfare.”
“A more terrifying utility?”
I called in one of the workers at the gun factory. And after entrusting him with a machine gun, he arranged dozens of human dolls.
“Shoot.”
Tutatattattattattattatta.
Each time the sound of gunpowder in a certain rhythm was repeated, the human doll fell apart. It took less than three minutes for all the human dolls on the front line to be destroyed. Is it because the technology was brought in 10 years later?
Chris’ eyes widened.
“A machine gun like this?”
“It’s not the machine gun’s lethality that matters. Gunner holding a machine gun. Look, no trained cavalry, no marines, no army, one factory worker literally shredded dozens of people.”
“….!!!”
Chris opened his eyes and turned to the shooter. The gunner holding the machine gun looked at best a young man who was still just over 20 years old.
“I don’t need advanced training…?”
“one week. Even if you train that much, you can grind elite soldiers on the front line into a shredder. How about it, I think it might be the perfect item for Irish people who are dealing with the British Empire.”
Well, the Second Boer War is just around the corner.
The best chance for the Irish armed independence forces to change the Raimi (British) guys.
Come to think of it, it doesn’t seem too bad to send Irish armed independence forces to the Boer War and train them.
‘I’ll have to propose to Chris to send troops to the Boer War later.’
It’s not bad to participate as a volunteer in the US-Spanish war.
Perhaps it would not be a bad suggestion to increase opportunities for actual training for Christians and the Irish armed independence forces.
War experience is such a valuable resource.
“By the way, Morgan. Wasn’t Maxim, the engineer who developed this machine gun, now in the British Empire?”
Chris’ face turned white.
But I shrugged and pointed my finger at the machine gunner. Sir Maxim may have invented the machine gun, but he probably doesn’t know the utility of a machine gun better than I, who knows the tragic events of World War I.
“Look closely, how the machine gun is.”
“…a trench?”
“The machine gun’s maximum utility is not limited to the machine gun itself. Additional conditions must be met.”
The terrain I pointed to was a trench line that had been dug. And the front of the trench was filled with five layers of barbed wire.
And machine guns were placed so that crossfire was possible.
“Imagine for a moment. How to seize the enemy camp in a trench lined with five layers of barbed wire, and in hell where machine guns are blasting bullets with crossfire.”
“…..Shit.”
His face grew paler, as if the human dolls that had just been torn apart shimmered in Chris’s head.
But I also admired myself.
‘Look at this guy?’
In this era, just having a brain capable of understanding the Triple Concerto composed of trenches, barbed wire, and machine guns was a tremendous talent.
Unless it was the British Empire’s military that suffered the Boer War, it was a time when war was perceived as a kind of sport or a genocide game for indigenous peoples. When they aimed at each other, no one cared what kind of disaster would happen.
Chris was interested.
“Shall I tell you a more horrifying truth?”
“her! Do you still have any surprises left?”
Is it war nature?
Chris half-opened his face with a 10-year-old look. For some reason, the skin had become firmer and there was no general feeling.
I pointed to the huge gun warehouse on the other side of the gun factory.
“The fact is that one of these guns comes out of my factory every 72 hours. Not the entire factory, but 72 hours per factory line.”
“What……”
Chris looked at me with the eyes of an alien.
No, it’s not me, it’s that Ford-sama developed it. not yet
I could never say to Chris now that it’s still small compared to the production capacity of the great American four-dism conveyor belt.
Complex machine guns took at least 150 hours to produce, so it’s not unusual to stick your tongue out in 72 hours.
‘Soon, one tablet every 48 hours will come out.’
can you afford it?
Still, it seemed that Chris was still troubled by the unit price of the machine gun. I sang a magic spell that would blow air into Chris’s shaking heart.
“So the unit price is cheap.”
“DEAL.”
match-
That evening.
Chris flew to New York, packed a bunch of money, and placed an additional order. The list of additional orders included barbed wire, items such as shovels for digging trenches, and machine guns.
So I pulled out the real money I paid to DWM.
***
Early February 1898.
New York State.
Wall Street hedge fund headquarters.
“Master, as you said, we have completed the recruitment of personnel. Here is a list of employee profiles.”
James handed me a thick list.
I flipped through the paperwork I was handed over and looked at the lineup.
whistle.
“Lloyd’s, Barclays, Bank of Hong Kong, JP Morgan, Chase Bank, and Citibank. And so on, and from the railroad executives, it’s gorgeous.”
“Master, if you look at their career portfolios behind the specs, you will be more surprised.”
“portfolio?”
Charle-
I quickly flipped through the list, and found a thick pile of papers in the back.
Stop.
“…J. Gould’s working staff, a former Pinkerton Detective Agency, a railroad company’s government agency, a lobbyist in the House of Representatives, and a history of manipulating the stock price of the New York Stock Exchange are all terrifying.”
“It was a bit of a radical career to include in my biography, so I left it out a bit. People from the big banking elite in New York usually have this kind of experience.”
“Elite is a b*tch.”
There is no other Robber.
widely.
I put the list down on the table.
‘I’ll get tired of peeing just by reading it.’
However, it was a solid lineup.
In order to survive on Wall Street, a financial battlefield full of conspiracy tricks and scheming, you must first be armed with a lot of heinous weapons.
‘Because you have to stab me before you get hit.’
Let’s swipe through the list again.
A familiar name appeared.
“Wharton School?”
“The University of Pennsylvania is said to be a newly established commerce-related university.”
“No, I know what the Wharton School is.”
soft-
I picked up the piece of paper at the top of the list.
“Kalik W. Veyron.”
A name never seen in original history.
Although he was an unproven talent, the tag of the Wharton School tickled his eyes.
Maybe it’s a great talent.
“This is a talented person who graduated with a perfect score of A+.”
“No, James, you know. In Wall Street practice, school grades don’t matter. I know you are smart and sincere.”
“Would you like to pull out a detailed profile?”
“no.”
widely.
I put the piece of paper down on the table.
“People cannot know just by looking at a piece of paper. I’ll put it by my side and watch it for myself.”
“I will create a secretariat and let it belong.”
“Okay, and James.”
I made eye contact with James.
“You will be the chief of staff.”
“……Yes!”
James clenched his fists with an even more remorseful expression on his face. My Chief of Staff is a senior position in charge of managing the hedge fund with a capital of $10 million, DWM North America and Coca-Cola’s headquarters.
It’s just a reward for what James did.
“James, I believe you.”
“I will not disappoint.”
When James stared at me with his moved eyes, his hands and feet trembled for nothing, and he turned away.
“Oh, how are the $3.5 million worth of gunpowder and gunpowder Chris ordered? I know DWM gunsmiths are still in America.”
“The gun factory where the conveyor belt is installed is running smoothly. It is still the first batch, so the defect rate is quite high, but gunsmiths at DWM say that the defect rate is lower than expected. However, it is strangely twisted on the other side.”
“Well?”
James put a copy of the corporate register on my desk with an uneasy expression.
My gaze was fixed on the top of the document.
“Isn’t the corporate name… DWM?”
“DWM Director Loewe flatly refused to use the trademark. It’s a condition not specified in the contract.”
“Tsuk, director of Loewe, what is the trademark right for this gentleman who even shares technology?”
annoying
When firearms containing the essence of DWM firearms technology are distributed, everyone who knows them will know that they are DWM firearms, so why not reject the trademark right?
Trademarks don’t really matter, but they do care.
Heinrich’s Law.
A statistical law that states that dozens of minor accidents and hundreds of signs must appear before a major accident occurs.
I frowned.
“Send an employee to DWM’s German headquarters to find out what’s going on. It was made up of employees from the Pinkerton Detective Agency that were in the profile earlier.”
“Yes, I will look into it closely.”
“Remember James. All major accidents always start with small signs. Especially in a case where there is a sense of incongruity like this one.”
“…I know what you mean.”
“Let’s go.”
James left the office with a hardened face.
I read the copy of the corporate register again.
“Jew…..”
Representative of the German Empire’s defense industry and the Jewish people.
With these two precarious combinations, I had a bad foreboding.
“Well? What is this.”
I picked up the envelope that was barely hanging on the desk.
“Ah, the investment proposal I put on hold last time… huh?”
I trembled as if I was electrocuted at the name of the sender on the envelope.
In 2022, when I was active, there was a name written on it that anyone with any interest in the Wall Street stock market would have heard of.
– Dow Jones & Company
It was another tycoon who came to hedge funds.
