"Don't underestimate our guests, they are not guests!" Sheffield hinted in an ambiguous tone, saying that the good life of Sheriff West rested on these returnees.

"We are the owners of this place." Gale emphasized following Sheffield's words, "Maybe we will meet often in the future, and our good lives will continue to be long in the future."

"Our family members are naturally the same people. They were well-known in Louisiana and even the entire South back then. Although they are relatively old, they will not be forgotten so quickly." Sheffield was among the two groups of people.

It played the role of a lubricant and quickly brought the two parties in need together.

The two groups of people quickly went from strangers to familiarity, and Sheffield breathed a sigh of relief. This was a very good start. It was impossible for the entire southern Sheffield family to take care of it. In fact, from common sense, it was impossible for any family to do so.

This kind of strength. But this is not the reason why the Sheffield family is very willing to summon partners.

But now the United States really needs the inflow of funds. Although Sheriff West is a powerful figure in front of the ordinary people, he cannot fully understand the situation facing the entire United States. It is impossible for him, a police chief, to know the difficulties that the United States is facing now.

.

In real history, the GDP of the United States in 1895 was already on par with its own father, the British Empire. It was still a little behind in this history, but the gap was only one to two years, which cannot be seen in statistical data.

gap.

It seems that the beautiful tomorrow of the United States is just around the corner, but the closer we get to the United States, the more we can feel the invisible ceiling. Someone has set up invisible obstacles in front of us. The source of this obstacle is naturally the overlord of the world today, the British Empire.

and some European forces.

To put it bluntly, this is the British imperial version of the policy of containment and engagement. For the United States, which is increasingly running out of control, today's world hegemon feels that he must do something to keep the United States farther away from him.

More than a hundred years later, the United States did the same thing to the Republic, and because the United States itself had experienced this period of history, it set a lower warning line. Unlike the British Empire, the American economy had already formed a parallel trend with the British economy before it returned.

Come on, the warning line set by the United States is 60%. Once this warning line is crossed, whether it is the Soviet Union or any other country, it is worthy of the United States to respond with all its strength.

Standard Oil, which is now going abroad and sweeping the world's oil share, can also be compared to the Republic more than a hundred years later. Even for the small countries under their noses, the people of the United States are in the same situation. If you don't have a father behind you, beat you twenty times.

in the state of mind.

When you want to do something to Latin American countries, you must also look at whether the other party is backed by old-style imperialism. When facing the United States, Latin American countries now act as if the British and French are behind us.

The tone was just like when the Japanese Bangzi spoke more than a hundred years later, "Our real father is the American emperor!"

The United States in 1895 had to face the British father, French father, Colombia, and even Panama from time to time when negotiating with the American empire.

What the people say, what the French say.

The construction of the Panama Canal alone has been going on for twenty years now, and it looks like it will continue to drag on. The difficulties we face are actually the same. Not only do we have to deal with these small countries under our noses carefully, but we also have to deal with them carefully.

There is also a turbulent undercurrent in the country.

Sheffield held the "Chicago Daily News" in his hand. The headline was, The Rothschild family owned one billion dollars in gold. This was an astronomical figure in 1895, equivalent to half of the Chicago Wheat Futures Exchange.

transaction volume”.

Since the end of last year, the U.S. finance has encountered a gold run crisis. In October, the U.S. fiscal deficit soared to 13 million U.S. dollars, while gold reserves dropped to 52 million U.S. dollars. Entering this year, the situation has accelerated and worsened, with 2,600 U.S. dollars

Ten thousand US dollars of gold flowed from the United States to overseas; forty-five million US dollars of gold was withdrawn from the US Treasury to pay for legal tender. The Treasury’s gold reserves only have US$40 million left, and they are still growing at a rate of US$2 million every day.

outflow.

This situation had already started a few years ago, but it has only accelerated in the second half of last year. Before arriving in New Orleans, Sheffield also asked Lafayette on this issue, "Are the Rothschilds very powerful?"

?”

"Your grandfather always asked this question at that time, and even went through it. He was very powerful in Europe. However, their family made a mistake in the development of the United States. They withdrew many institutions during the Civil War. Now they want to make a comeback.

If so, it’s already a bit late. In China, it’s not as pervasive as many gossips say.” Annabel shrugged, “I can only say that I want to get in, but I may not succeed.”

"Those small news newspapers are mostly eye-catching, and their comments are alarmist. Your grandfather said it when he was alive, which is basically equivalent to farting. What qualifications and channels do they have to know about real big things? Now the United States has indeed caused a stir in the United Kingdom.

It’s also true to pay attention.”

"Grandma, in fact, the United States has reached its current development scale. Our family must make a decision, that is, choose between the United Kingdom and the United States. We can no longer be the spokesperson of the British Empire."

The Sheffield family has been the spokesperson of the British Empire for a long time. On the one hand, it is because the Texas Legion was not wiped out. After the Civil War, the South was under military control for a long time, and Texas did not suffer such a fate. On the other hand, it was because the British

Threats to the Confederacy, coupled with the special status of the Lone Star Republic, saved it. It is not surprising that the flag of the United States cannot be seen in Texas, but the flag of the Lone Star Republic will always fly.

In fact, at a certain stage in later generations, there will be such spokespersons in the Republic, but they are not those countries that have not pursued them. The days of such spokespersons are destined to be short-lived. As the United States develops, the color of such spokespersons must be erased.

"If you want to do it, do it. Even if you want to lose your family, our family is not easy to lose." Annabel said lightly before leaving, "The situation is constantly changing, and our family does not necessarily have to follow the footsteps of the UK."

Starting with New Orleans, Sheffield temporarily forgot about Arlington and still did its own reception work. Let these returnees get familiar with the situation, and a period of time passed in the blink of an eye.

When they were at the beach, Gale said hesitantly, "William, in fact, you should be able to think of it. For example, we went to Brazil for a long time, and we couldn't just be in contact with the families who immigrated together. In fact, many Brazilian local plantations

The plantation owners have a good relationship with us, and we have also received telegrams in the past few days. Some of the original plantation owners in Brazil are also interested in considering moving."

"Huh?" Sheffield frowned slightly after hearing this, and said with some embarrassment, "You have no problem, you are partners to begin with, but the language and habits of these Brazilian planters may be exclusive to us.

We can talk, and I believe you are patriotic."

"They can also talk, and they can also be patriotic." Gale immediately said, "They are also plantation owners, there is no problem."
