Chapter 129 The Minister of Finance's Teacher-Student Friendship(2/2)
"What solution have you found?" Corwin asked curiously.
"Sorry, I can't say it yet." Ge Wen said slightly apologetically.
Because Liang Yao finally decided to import iron ore and even coal from Mexico, the relationship between the United States and Mexico is still very tense.
Naturally, this kind of thing cannot be discussed on the table.
Corwin did not embarrass Gavin, but he was still very curious about the California authorities because he saw more news about the California Lieutenant Governor, the first multi-millionaire in the West.
As for Mr. Robinson, the current governor of California, there is very little news. Apart from seeing his name mentioned in the news about the successful prevention of cholera, there is no other valuable news.
In contrast, the Lieutenant Governor of California has a lot of news. Whether it is positive news or negative news, or even tidbits about the Vanderbilt family, you can often see it in newspapers.
Of course, in this era of prevalent money worship, people are more concerned about the deputy governor's wealthy status. Major newspapers have estimated Liang Yao's assets, ranging from ten million US dollars to even hundreds of millions of US dollars.
There are several versions of estimates available.
They also nicknamed the mysterious rich man they had never met the Gold King, just like they had nicknamed Vanderbilt the Ship King.
Some exaggerated news even claimed in newspapers that gold was used as the building material for the residence of the King of Gold.
Corwin also didn't believe this statement. A house made of gold would definitely be uncomfortable to live in. He preferred a wooden house and felt that a wooden house was more comfortable to live in.
Whether in Washington, D.C. or Ohio, his residences were all wooden buildings.
Corwin heard that the lieutenant governor was a bit too young. He was only twenty years old this year, which is what Easterners call false age. His actual age may not be twenty yet.
This made Corwin full of curiosity about this young man. A person under twenty years old was in charge of a state?
This is unprecedented in the history of the United States.
"Gwen, please tell me, is it your governor or the lieutenant governor who is in power in California now?"
There was a bit of curiosity in Corwin's serious expression.
