America 1919

In 1919, Donnie's soul traversed into the United States. To start off, Donnie, just a soldier who had recently stepped down from the battlefields of World War I, was framed by his superior. Before the Prohibition era began, he took over a bar in Atlantic City. With the perspective of a transmigrator and ruthless tactics, he gradually became the largest bootlegger in America. In the roaring twenties, Donnie delved into bootlegging, ran beauty pageants, built his career, and stormed Wall Street. Decades later, when people studied modern American history, they found that the name 'Donnie Block' was one they simply could not ignore!!!

177. Curtain falls (A ten-thousand-word chapter, repaying the debt~)

Rows of towering skyscrapers could not block the piercing sunlight above Manhattan.

Harry Sinclair held a copy of the "Atlantic City Post" in his hands, standing at the entrance of the NYSE, but ultimately, Harry Sinclair did not muster up the courage to go inside.

It wasn't because he hadn't been able to borrow money, which made him certain of his defeat today, but because of an article in the "Atlantic City Post."

The article detailed the reasons why Donnie Block had shorted the Sinclair Oil Corporation.

A righteous reason, one that, after the short selling battle of these past few days, was enough to make all retail investors frantically sell off the Sinclair Oil Corporation stock, a reason that Harry Sinclair knew of, but had never anticipated!

It turned out that the "Atlantic City Post" published a piece about a very significant project of the Sinclair Oil Corporation.

That was the oil field belonging to Sinclair Oil Corporation, the Teapot Dome oil field!
