Chapter 432 Morgan, please accept the insurance policy

Chapter 432 Morgan, please accept the insurance policy

"There is no doubt about the reconstruction of California, especially the reconstruction of downtown San Francisco. No one needs to worry about this. There will be financial allocations and support in the next few years." The White House spokesman conveyed President Roosevelt's attitude on this matter to all visiting reporters, "The President has convinced most of the congressmen, and the federal government will soon come up with a real solution."

Reporters asked all kinds of questions at once, and someone even asked the president's daughter Alice Roosevelt what she thought of the people in the disaster area. A White House spokesman said he could not answer such questions.

"Dad, I'm going to California after traffic is restored." Alice Roosevelt volunteered as she watched her father hurriedly straighten his shirt as he prepared to go to another meeting in Congress.

"Hmm?" President Roosevelt paused and looked at his daughter in a hurry, then said, "California has just suffered an earthquake, and martial law will not be lifted for a few days. Is it dangerous for you to go?"

"Aren't there soldiers going with me? I'll just follow them." Alice Roosevelt didn't change her mind. She couldn't say that her lover was there and she wanted to go over to accompany him. If she said that, she couldn't guarantee that she would see the sun tomorrow.

President Roosevelt was stunned for a moment. He also knew that his daughter actually had a much better reputation than he, the president. If she went to California on his behalf, it might help to make up for the federal government's slow response. He nodded and said, "Okay, be sure to pay attention to safety."

Be sure to pay attention to safety! Roosevelt, who had already walked out of the White House, didn't know that this sentence reminded his daughter of a slave owner who was afraid of death. This sentence was the slave owner's catchphrase.

Alice Roosevelt was still in the White House, but her heart had already flown to Los Angeles. In Los Angeles, although Evelyn was left to do all the limelight work, she was also personally observing the local environment.

The Sheffield group followed the local guide through the narrow alleys between the haphazardly built, low and dilapidated houses. These alleys were very narrow. In some places, if someone came from the opposite side, you had to turn sideways to let him pass. Corresponding to the narrow alleys was the dirty environment.

There are no sewers here, only some open ditches on both sides of the main alleys, but these drainage ditches are also very shallow, and there are no drainage facilities in the smaller alleys. Domestic sewage can only be dumped directly on the ground, so sewage flows everywhere.

"Although there are many dilapidated houses, it's still much better than San Francisco, isn't it?" Sheffield said optimistically, simply celebrating a funeral to the extreme. "It won't cost much to bulldoze such a community. But then again, the population of Los Angeles and San Francisco has increased a lot since I first came to Los Angeles. If the old houses are gone, new houses will come sooner or later. After all, I think California is the most livable place in the United States."

The slave owner's words were absolutely sincere, and this was definitely not the time to be trolling. The South is the coldest, the South is the hottest, and the South is the most livable. California, except for its unstable crust, is definitely more livable than the territories of the Yankees and Dixies.

Los Angeles Mayor Harder rarely comes to places like this. Seeing Sheffield covering his nose with a handkerchief, he regretted not preparing one. However, he still said in a muffled voice, "Now it depends on whether we can get support from the federal government."

"The Pacific coast is so important, the federal government will not give it up, and our president will certainly not give it up." Sheffield was much more confident than Hard. After the Russo-Japanese War, the threat of the Japanese Combined Fleet was so obvious. Would a president like Roosevelt, who believed in the carrot and stick policy, turn a blind eye to it?

Although the slave owners were quite dissatisfied with his father-in-law's attitude towards big business, it must be said that in terms of strategic vision, President Roosevelt Sr. was considered to be a very professional one among a large number of presidents.

The martial law in California is about to end, because the transportation that was cut off by the earthquake has been restored. In fact, except for San Francisco, the railway transportation has been restored in other places, and relief supplies have been transported in. Although it came late, it finally came.

However, how long it takes to rebuild is a very particular matter. As Sheffield remembers, it took six years to rebuild downtown San Francisco. In fact, this time is not fast or slow. It is not completely unacceptable. If the impact of earthquakes is not taken into account and earthquake-proof treatment is not done, the speed can be faster.

It doesn’t really matter whether a building is earthquake-proof or not. If nothing unexpected happens, Sheffield will not live to see the next major earthquake. Of course, in order to avoid accidents, one must never cut corners when constructing buildings.

As the most difficult times have gradually faded away, Sheffield naturally can no longer interfere in other people's affairs. The Black Gold Company and the Alamo Guards can fire secretly and incite riots, and the members have no regrets. This is what they do.

But the real rescue and relief work showed unprofessionalism. As a boss who cares about his employees, Sheffield cannot let them continue to make selfless contributions. What should be done has been done, and the rest is left to the government. This is fair.

As a boss of such a big company as United, he would not use labor for free even if he could do it, especially for the power to protect himself. He must distinguish between public and private, and reward those who have put in the labor.

"Your own employees have to pay extra money?" Natalia was unhappy when she heard this. These people are paid for a long time, so why should they pay extra money now? It doesn't make sense.

Sheffield glanced at the little girl and said, "These employees are working hard to make money. Besides, who said I would pay for it myself? I have other ways. Evelin, are all the people here?"

Evelyn, who had just come in, nodded and said, "The people from the Black Gold Company and the Alamo Guard are here. What do you want to do?"

"No big deal. I'm going to let Morgan pay for the disaster relief for me." Sheffield stood up leisurely, looking proud at Natalia, "Back then, as an exchange with Hua Gong, I had a lot of properties in San Francisco. These properties were eventually insured. I took out the earthquake insurance policies and gave them to Jesla to distribute. As for the rest, since my company is so big and short of employees, I'll just treat it as a benefit for the employees in California. I can always get some compensation."

"I'm sure Morgan will be very grateful to you!" Natalia jumped up and shook the slave owner's arm coquettishly, "I knew you would never suffer a loss."

Humph! Sheffield strode with his hands behind his back, ready to go out for a walk with his dog, which he named Yankee wherever he went.

Although the nature of the insurance industry is that it will not pay for this or that, it also depends on the time. For example, the San Francisco earthquake this time has exceeded the disaster in the general sense. Although the slave owners fired a lot of map cannons in the newspapers because of the merger of the shipyard, this is not the overall situation. The overall situation is that most people will sympathize with California.

If, at this special time, an insurance company wants to play the same trick as usual, and refuse to pay for this or that, all citizens of the United States will not let it go, and insurance companies can disappear from this business.

Even if the worst result occurs and Morgan is prepared to cheat, then don't blame Sheffield for being rude, because he now has the upper hand over the earthquake, which is enough to make Morgan pay a greater price than just money.

Sheffield, who was walking his dog, seemed to hear a huge cheer, which showed that Black Gold Company and the Alamo Guard were very satisfied with the return of this disaster relief. He said to himself, "Where can you find a boss like me?"

"Morgan, please take the insurance policy!"

Outside the doors of several insurance companies in Los Angeles, some people have come up with their insurance policies to claim compensation. There are smart people everywhere, otherwise they would not burn down their own houses. Faced with these claimants, several insurance companies have unanimously shown unprecedented inefficiency. This situation has amazed the military soldiers who have just arrived in Los Angeles. After inquiring, they learned that these are citizens who lost their homes in the earthquake and are seeking compensation.

This was nothing new, but as the clothes were taken off, the employees of the Black Gold Company who no one could recognize joined the ranks, and the employees of the insurance company were instantly shocked. The insurance business in California has developed rapidly in recent years, but they did not expect this day.

On the surface, he agreed, saying that they just didn't have enough manpower and had to deal with it bit by bit. He privately used the radio to report the situation here and informed the headquarters in New York. Faced with a large number of insurance policies and the possibility of more, Morgan Jr. could no longer hold his temper and went directly to the headquarters building to discuss with his father.

"There are a lot of people claiming compensation with their insurance policies in California. The number is increasing and we can't count them." Morgan said worriedly, "Insurance companies have been doing very well in California in recent years. I heard that half of San Francisco has been razed to the ground. I'm really worried. Father, do you want to think of a solution?"

"You want to deny your mistake when the whole nation is watching?" Morgan knew the situation was serious, but his son's other choice was even more serious than what he heard.

If he didn't admit it at this special moment, even Morgan couldn't predict what kind of anger he and the entire Morgan Alliance would encounter, not to mention the insurance industry. But the theoretical insurance policy was scary to think about, and Morgan couldn't calm down. Finally, he said, "Tell them first and make a statistics first." After saying this, Morgan felt a pain in his liver.
