After persuading the young Theodore Roosevelt, it was much easier to sway Albert Furr!
Albert Furr wanted to quietly and unnoticeably lease those three oil fields to the oil consortia behind him, and the Navy Departnt was an unavoidable presence.
When Albert Furr heard that Theodore Roosevelt was also on Donnie's side, he knew that things were not so simple anymore!
"Donnie, I really admire your ability. I didn't expect the Roosevelt Family to actually stand by you!"
Albert Furr couldn't help but exclaim.
Donnie said easily, "Albert, haven't I told you before? I'm always very generous to my friends, and in the sa way, my friends are also very generous to . I've always believed that only mutual benefits lead to true victory!"
Albert Furr nodded his head; he didn't want to give up the benefits Donnie had offered him, but previously he had no way to persuade the oil consortia behind him on his own.
But now it was different, with the Navy Departnt also standing on Donnie's side, in actuality, Donnie had already seized all the official power in the whole matter.
The oil consortia could no longer push all the responsibility onto him alone.
Since that was the case, why not accept Donnie's offer of benefits.
As for the ga Donnie would play with those behind the oil consortia, that was a matter between them!
Having thought all this through, Albert Furr had no more hesitations.
"OK, as a friend, I of course hope for your continuous success, Donnie. I have no objections to this matter. I'll speak to the oil consortium on your behalf, but as for how to distribute the resources of those oil wells, you'll still have to negotiate personally!"
Donnie nodded and said, "No problem, this is sothing I should do!"
Albert Furr stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "I hope, Donnie, that after becoming a wine and gambling magnate, you can soon beco an oil tycoon!"
Donnie also extended his hand and said, "I hope our friendship can continue to develop for a long ti!"
"That's a given!"

Albert Furr left Atlantic City.
At this ti, Donnie also left Atlantic City. He was headed to Washington to deal with armants and veterans' issues.
Pan Xing had been experiencing a headache lately because the problems with the veterans were getting more serious. Just a few days ago, so veterans had gathered in both Washington and New York to start protest marches.
They hoped to receive the benefits they deserved.
But the United States' developnt plans clearly hadn't taken these veterans' issues into account.
However, because the U.S. Governnt had previously propagated them as national heroes, it was really troubleso when they stirred up.
As the commander of the expeditionary force in World War I, Congress had assigned this issue to Pan Xing.
The headquarters of the Army Staff... The Pentagon representing the U.S. military hadn't been built yet, and with the U.S. Departnt of Defense not yet formally established, the Army Staff currently had its own separate office building!
At this mont, Peyton March, although not yet officially appointed as Chief of Staff, had already begun to familiarize himself with the work of the entire Army Staff.
Once Peyton March retired, he would officially beco the United States Army Chief of Staff.
Smack!
Peyton March fiercely threw the ashtray from his desk to the floor in his office, his face flushed with anger as he raged.
"Did all those people in the White House get their brains caught in a door? They want to solve the veterans' issues without giving a penny, this is just a joke!"
As Peyton March's Chief of Staff, Marshall understood why he was so angry.
Actually, everyone knew that the best way to solve this problem was to take care of these people's living conditions, and all of it needed money!
The only problem was that the White House just kept giving orders without providing the funds.
And yet they wanted Peyton March to use his prestige to resolve the issue.
Everyone knew this was a thankless and exhausting task.
Normally, Marshall would have ignored Peyton March's rage, as he could not conjure up that much money anyway.
But the situation was different now; he had t with Donnie the previous night and had a long conversation with him.
"General, do you rember Donnie Block whom I brought to your dinner party before?" Marshall said after Peyton March's anger had sowhat subsided.
Peyton March recalled for a mont and said, "Wasn't that the guy who earned military honors in the field but was then overshadowed by his own commanding officer?"
After Marshall got in touch with Donnie, he also shared the matter with Peyton March.
Marshall nodded and said, "Yes, him. He is doing very well in Atlantic City now!"
Peyton March said, "Hmm, I have heard his na. A fine young man. If other veterans could be like him, our job would be so much easier!" Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
Marshall said, "That's right, Donnie has beco an influential figure in Atlantic City in a short ti; I think he must have so experience that's worth learning. Maybe he can help us think of a solution at this ti!"
Peyton March looked at Marshall and asked, "He contacted you?"
Being a historical figure who left a legacy, Peyton March was undoubtedly smart.
Marshall did not conceal anything and nodded, "Yes, in fact, Donnie arrived in Washington last night and talked a lot with !"
