Capítulo 1423: Chapter 498: The Mustached Man Is No Ordinary Person

Donnie didn’t lie in his response to Mustache.

Because Donnie truly believes that only by improving the fundamentals can he earn more money.

Being the richest person in a fifth-tier city versus a first-tier city are completely different concepts.

Of course, this kind of thinking is not without problems!

“Mr. Block, aren’t you worried that by the time this country develops, it might conflict with your interests?”

Mustache was completely captivated by Donnie’s remarks but also thought of more issues.

No one wants a power center that is outside of their control within their own country, especially those in power. This isn’t something that can be solved by influencing one or two people or a party.

At this level, no one wants their power to be divided.

“There’s nothing to worry about!”

Donnie leaned back on the sofa, a relaxed smile on his face, and said, “If someone wants to seize my wealth, then make that person disappear.”

Mustache’s expression changed abruptly, and he spoke in a sinister tone: “Mr. Block, are you threatening me?”

Donnie Block chuckled lightly, speaking in a relaxed manner: “Mr. Mustache, do you know what I realized during my journey from Mexico to Germany?”

Mustache frowned slightly, as Donnie didn’t answer his question, but still asked: “What realization?”

Donnie said: “The realization that life is truly fragile. A Colt 1911 worth less than 15 US Dollars, combined with a bullet worth 1 US Dollar, can take down anyone, no matter how high their status is.”

Mustache nodded, saying: “I know, you’re indeed threatening me!”

Donnie suddenly laughed and said: “Mr. Mustache, rest assured, I would never threaten my allies without reason. I’m just trying to tell you one thing!”

“What thing?”

Donnie said: “I am a businessman, and even now, I firmly believe I am a pure businessman. As a businessman, interests are pure, and if you can offer me what I value most, then we will be the most steadfast allies. As for the future…

You probably didn’t understand what I meant earlier. I hope with your support in the future, Deutsche Bank can become the largest bank in Germany. But why focus solely on Germany? We can completely look further, expanding throughout Europe, even to South America and Africa. By then, the business rooted in Germany will be enough to smooth out any potential conflicts of interest between us!”

The sinister look in Mustache’s eyes disappeared, “So your idea is to use external interests to resolve internal conflicts?”

Donnie clapped his hands and said: “Exactly, that’s the idea!”

“This isn’t an easy task!” Mustache said in a deep voice.

“Is it harder than becoming the Führer of Germany?” Donnie laughed.

Mustache laughed, saying: “I see, considering it that way, you and I will be the strongest allies at least in our generation!”

“Of course, as long as whatever Mr. Mustache needs, I will definitely meet your needs!”

“I need ten thousand AK47s and three million rounds of ammunition!”

“You certainly know how to make a lion’s demand!”

“Haha, isn’t it Mr. Block who said he’s willing to satisfy all my needs?”

“Alright then, these weapons will arrive in Hamburg City after a week. By then, Mr. Mustache can arrange for someone to receive them!”

Mustache was stunned; he didn’t expect Donnie to agree to his terms so readily.

“Aren’t you worried I’ll go back on my word afterward?”

“Compared to my previous investments in you, this is nothing at all. If you really reneged, it would only prove I misjudged you. At that time, Mr. Mustache, you won’t just lose a powerful ally, but also gain an enemy that would make you restless even when sleeping!”

“You’re threatening me once again!”

“I’m just trying to make Mr. Mustache understand my determination!”

.

Mustache left the Warburg Estate.

Steve Cotting stood beside Donnie, looking somewhat hesitant, unsure what to say.

“Just ask whatever you want to ask. I won’t be coming back to Germany for a short while; it’s best to clear up any issues now!”

Donnie had a smile on his face.

Steve Cotting spoke up: “Boss, why did you say those things to Mustache just now?”

Donnie smiled lightly: “You’ve had the most dealings with Mustache, share your views on him!”

Steve Cotting pondered for a moment, then said seriously: “He’s a man with very clear goals, very disciplined, and also very crazy!”

“Is it because of his madness that you think I shouldn’t have spoken to him in a threatening tone just now?”

“Exactly!”

“It is precisely because of his madness that I spoke to him like that. Mustache is different from Aguirre, Antonio Carmona, and others; they only care about pitiful power. Once they have it, they don’t mind how their country is managed. But Mustache is different; his ambition is too large for Germany alone to contain.

For people like him, you must let them know that you, as their ally, are indispensable and powerful, otherwise, he will see you as his subordinate.
