The God of Wealth: Her Top Game of Thrones

Chapter 920 Potomac Society

"Has Miss Newman ever heard of the Potomac Society?"

Potomac Society?

Tang Tang paused with her hand holding the teacup elegantly, looked up at Edwin, and said with a half-smile, "I have naturally heard of the famous Power Society."

"Power Society" is actually a pseudonym, because the Potomac Society is ostensibly an academic discussion society for a group of upper-class politicians, scientific elites, and business tycoons.

But in fact, the Potomac Society is a private super elite club that is not open to the public.

In the United States, socializing is mostly based on parties or clubs.

The sign that you are accepted by a circle is being invited to private parties or private clubs.

The Potomac Society is one of the top private clubs in the United States.

This society gathers countless top figures. For example, the former president of the United States came from the Potomac Society, and Edwin is also a member of it.

The Potomac Society has gathered an extremely special but huge force, which is enough to confront certain capital or forces.

They will even manipulate the political situation in the U.S. from behind the scenes—of course, they are fighting against several forces.

It was impossible for Edwin to mention an unrelated society for no reason, but...

Edwin waved his hand first, signaling the housekeeper to bring some contracts that needed to be signed for the purchase of the house.

"We talked as we signed." These aristocratic elites always have this ability. When they reject you, they can hold their chins high to the sky, and when they recognize you, they can become your extremely close friends.

At least now, Edwin behaved like a human being, instead of being the aristocrat who was "polite" but actually very cold to his students like he was in school.

"Ms. Newkman just got off the plane..." Edwin's voice was low and gentle, like black oak soaked in red wine, with a long aftertaste. "We still have a long time to get to know each other. Maybe what you need most now is rest?"

Tang Tang leaned on the sofa in an elegant but relaxed posture. She lowered her head and flipped through the document. The system reviewed it for her in one second and confirmed that there was no problem, so Tang Tang signed it very quickly.

No one hates being trusted, even if it's just the first time they meet today.

But Tang Tang's straightforwardness still made Edwin happy. He sat casually but with a bit of aristocratic reserve, with his legs crossed, one hand on the armrest of the sofa, and his face supported to look at Tang Tang.

"You know, Miss Newkman, I approached seven or eight visitors today before I met you."

Edwin said faintly, "But you are the only one among these people who has not mentioned the Nobel Prize."

Tang Tang didn't even raise his head as he flipped through the documents and signed.

Edwin didn't need Tang Tang's response. He just snorted slightly and said, "If I were to be labeled a Nobel Prize winner in the future, I would rather throw the award into the sea to feed the sharks."

Hearing Edwin's words, Tang Tang couldn't help but laugh.

Edwin looked at her and thought Tang Tang had beautiful eyes.

Tang Tang handed the signed document to Tang Xiao, who sorted it out.

She looked at Edwin and joked, "If you really want to lose it, I can lend you my pool of crocodiles."

"Crocodile?"

There was a hint of surprise in Edwin's eyes. "Oh, yes, dear Madam, I forgot that besides being an excellent capitalist, you are also the heir of a Mafia family."

Tang Tang felt that he seemed to have understood a little bit of Edwin's nature.

All in all, this person sometimes seems to reveal a little bit of meanness inadvertently.

Oh, mean.

Tang Tang complained to the system in his mind, "It feels like a special feature of the US region."

Well, just like the dominant feature of South Korea.

It's a bit like a joke from hell.

The system cooperated with a laugh.

……

On the way back to the hotel, Tang Tang closed her eyes and recalled in her mind the last words Edwin said to her.

—"Does Miss Newman know how the Potomac Institute got its name?"

——"The Potomac River is located in Washington, D.C. It is the mother river of power in the center of the United States."

——"The Potomac Institute represents politics and academia, just like the mother river of power, where they meet in the undercurrent."

——“The Potomac Society was founded in 1885 and has become the cradle of power that the real elites dream of today.”

Edwin believes that no matter what Tang Tang wants to do in the US, he needs to use social interaction and connections as a medium.

The existence of the Potomac Society is equivalent to one of the top circles.

He thought Tang Tang shouldn't choose a bad one because the bad one was not worthy of her status and position.

But there is actually a problem - to date, the Potomac Society has never had any Asian members.

In fact, to some extent, the Potomac Society has another nickname, namely the "Pure Blood Society".

As the name suggests.

The Potomac Society had strict screening for the bloodlines of its members, the most basic requirement being that they had to be pure white.

Secondly, there are certain requirements for the family background of the members, but this requirement is invisible and there has never been any external standard.

In the past, a wealthy Indian was willing to donate $3 million in order to join the society, but was still rejected.

In addition, the society also has requirements for the personal standards of its members. Either the assets must be large enough, or the minimum threshold is a net worth of more than US$20 billion.

But even a net worth of $20 billion is still not enough, and the society also requires members to have at least one "non-commercial asset."

For example, a private island, or the exclusive development rights of a mineral deposit, or even a collection of Picasso's unpublished famous paintings...

Tang Tang rubbed his temple.

In addition to the above rules and regulations, as a nominal academic society, the Potomac Society naturally also has requirements for the academic achievements of its members.

The most basic one is that members must be students from Harvard/Princeton/Yale, and must have either obtained a professorship or won a world award.

For some entrepreneurs, some academic requirements have been relaxed.

It has to be said that after going through such a large number of detailed and rigorous selection criteria, the Potomac Institute has gathered countless talented people and elite humans.

Of course, for Tang Tang, who has just arrived in the United States, the Potomac Society is still a long way off.

The most important thing for her now is to rest in advance and then officially start school.

Sensing Tang Tang's excitement, the system asked curiously,

[The host seems very happy? ]

Tang Tang's lips curled slightly, and he felt his heart surge when he thought of everything unfamiliar. "Of course, Tongbao, I finally feel a little bit like when I was just reborn."
