Chapter 20 Stability Above All
Before the brother and sister left, Sheffield, who was holding the black back, came back again. He treated the two as air and ordered the groom, "Go to the girls' school next door first. I have something to do to go there."
There is nothing that cannot be visited in girls' schools. They are all their own places. They go wherever they want. The carriage starts and leaves, leaving behind the brothers and sisters looking at each other.
"Yang Ji, don't run around!" Sheffield smeared his hair and then raised his legs to walk up the steps, pushing the door open as if no one was around.
As the door creaked and was pushed open, the men and women in the room looked over with displeasure. Until they saw the person coming, they quickly changed into a spring breeze-like smile and nodded at Sheffield with a smile.
A position was left on the long table in the middle. Sheffield walked to this position and sat down without hesitation, stood on the table with his hands, drooping his eyelids and swept around. There were ten men, two women, and he was a member of the Texas League Club, a total of thirteen people, and these thirteen people will never change.
Representing the Thirteen State League of the United States, the nature of this club is actually similar to that of the university fraternities in various places. It is similar to the Skeleton and Bones Society of Yale University. The Skeleton and Bones Society of the Skeleton and Bones Society actually exist in all first-class universities in the United States. If it is for the quality of teaching, Sheffield can go to Houston to study. If it is for the convenience, she can go to Arlington and go home at any time.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I will graduate soon. Do you have any candidates in your mind to recruit into the club?" After a long yawn, Sheffield went straight to the point, "Do you all think about whether you have chosen a candidate? It seems that there are still normal graduates. Who is your successor?"
"What? William, are you graduating now?" The man wearing khaki said slightly unexpectedly, "You seem to be only sixteen years old, so if you are so anxious, go back?"
"After completing his studies, I can only go home as an heir." Sheffield said lazily, "This is nothing to do. I have already said hello to him and left in less than two months."
"Do you have to have a farewell party then? Or I will give myself to you one day?" The girl who was facing the khaki man licked her lips and leaned forward and spoke temptingly.
"Carter, can you take care of your fellow countrymen? Since I came to school, she always wanted to do something to me. Although I have a lot of money and billions, this is well known." Sheffield breathed a long sigh and said tiredly, "When will you grow up? Well? When will you come to Austin to go to school, and you just think about this every day?"
"I can't control Laura. Who can control what she wants to do?" Carter shook his head when he heard this, "She has always been like this, and you don't know."
"If this has always been the case, why do you just find a boy from an ordinary family to sleep? It's just a slutty." The man of khaki made an exaggerated expression and suggested, "How about finding a black vagabond to try it, I just imagine it and feel that it has a very visual impact."
"Hey..." Dongdongdongdong! Sheffield reached out and tapped the long table, "Mayor's son, granddaughter of the state senator, are you talking about this issue here? I'll ask again, is there anyone recommended it? Apart from civilians, don't disturb others' peaceful and comfortable life."
"Of course, how could we bring the enemy in? Never." Carter nodded frequently. He also agreed that stability is greater than anything else and did not want to be impacted.
Elite college fraternities in various places have one common advantage, that is, they establish their own network of relationships and help each other in the future. Many elite fraternities in colleges cannot even join women. Naturally, other races are also excluded. The Texas League Club has its own advanced side. Women can join, which fully reflects the equality of men and women, but civilians cannot join.
Just as the best business is monopoly, the best situation is to maintain the status quo. Theoretically, for Sheffield, it is best that the world will never change, so that his family will always be superior people and continue from generation to generation.
So this club is not capable, and it is about family and blood relationships. Even students with the same qualifications will save a lot of time and move towards success earlier. Personal abilities are not valued at all. If your family is a wealthy class or works for the government, it is great. If you are like the Sheffield family, you were a planter decades ago, and you are still rich now, that's better.
The twelve people in front of me, the descendants of seven planters, and four grandfathers worked in politics, while the remaining one was at home working in military and police.
"There are a few people worth noting. I will give you all the information about these people at that time. Don't worry, I will find out who their ancestors intermarried." Laura, who was fiddling with the pen, returned to her serious look, "It just happened to fill the gap."
"That doesn't have to be so serious. I'm not a person who values blood. Of course, there are no black students in Austin." Sheffield said a completely opposite sentence naturally. First, I'm not a racist, second, I hate black people, and the connection is silky and smooth, as if it should be.
"Oh, by the way, many of my fellow immigrants to Brazil have been back for decades. I believe you will see it soon. You can tell your elders about this first and prepare first." Sheffield slapped his thigh before suddenly remembering this. "Actually, many people have heard of this. It is no longer a rumor, but the matter has been settled. The competition is getting more intense. You all know what this means. There are pros and cons, but we must accept them. This is for the interests of the entire southern states. They are the same partners as you."
Although they have been away from the south for many years, these planters who immigrated to Brazil are still the same type of people in their eyes.
"We know that if these partners are coming back, they are enriching the strength of the entire South. It is natural for some competition to appear." Everyone nodded and said that they had already known the news.
"Actually, you don't have to worry. The Sheffield family will not let you fall out of this class, because if you fall out of this class, new people will inevitably come in, and newcomers will inevitably bring some impact. This is not conducive to stability." Sheffield nodded, and at the same time gave the people in front of him a reassurance. To put it bluntly, the more stable the slave owner class, the better. Stability is greater than anything else, and it will also disintegrate the impact of ordinary people on their class.
