“Henry, you can save me! You can save me, and you’re the only man in the universe that can. Will you do it? Won’t you do it?”
“Tell me how. Speak out, my boy.”
“Give me a million and my passage home for my ‘option’! Don’t, don’t refuse!”
I was in a kind of agony. I was right on the point of coming out with the words, “Lloyd, I’m a pauper myself–absolutely penniless, and in debt!” But a white-hot idea came flaming through my head, and I gripped my jaws together, and calmed myself down till I was as cold as a capitalist. Then I said, in a commercial and self-possessed way:
“I will save you, Lloyd–”
“Then I’m already saved! God be merciful to you forever! If ever I–”
“Let me finish, Lloyd. I will save you, but not in that way; for that would not be fair to you, after your hard work, and the risks you’ve run. I don’t need to buy mines; I can keep my capital moving, in a commercial center like London, without that; it’s what I’m at, all the time; but here is what I’ll do. I know all about that mine, of course; I know its immense value, and can swear to it if anybody wishes it. You shall sell out inside of the fortnight for three millions cash, using my name freely, and we’ll divide, share and share alike.”
三百万就这么来了，
原来家里有矿，
那就确实不一样了。
突然理解，
为什么现在，
有那么多网红了。
只是，
你有那个啥，
资本运作的能力吗？
