Chapter two hundred and eighty fifth tobacco and alcohol

"Boss, is there a scope? There are many people in the Democratic Party across the country!" Jesra looked troubled. Even though he had always adhered to the advantages of executing orders, this order was a little too general.

"Well... he should be from Virginia!" Sheffield thought about it for a moment, and finally remembered something useful. That's all. Virginia is the cradle of politicians in the United States, and many early presidents were born there.

Of course, this doesn't mean anything. The reason why I want to get to know Wilson quickly is because the president has the same thinking as Sheffield, a big slave owner. Although Wilson is a scholar, he is different from ordinary politicians. But when it comes to race,

Regarding the issue, this person is not naive.

Although Wilson's background as a scholar led him to have high moral standards and put them into his own political and diplomatic actions, when it came to dealing with black people, he judged a politician in the United States of America a hundred years later.

The fact that no one is willing to admit is that whites and blacks will not successfully integrate.

Sheffield appreciates this very much. After all, not many politicians dare to admit this. Even real estate businessmen do not dare to speak out the essence of black people's issues. They only dare to say a few words that not only black lives are precious, but also that of all people.

All lives are precious.

During Wilson's tenure, he pushed the black laws in southern states to the entire United States of America. This alone was enough for the United Company to fully support it. Knowing that this issue cannot be avoided, it is better to say one thing before the election and another after the election.

Be real.

"It seems that the Democratic Party has little hope this time!" McHale's appearance startled Sheffield and complained, "Can you make a little noise when you walk? After all, everyone needs a little private space."

"Sorry!" McHale shrugged helplessly, "Maybe you were too involved just now. The current situation is still a bit unsatisfactory. It seems that William McKinley's re-election is a foregone conclusion."

"He's not a bad person. The main reason is that his deputy is a powerful character. He might be our trouble." Sheffield said something and then said, "The fundamental reason is that we Dixie people don't have enough strength to give up hope."

The candidate has been pushed to the position where he should be. William Bryan's ideas have also created too many enemies. The most urgent thing now is to find ways to increase the strength of our major companies and allies. This cannot be done

Yes, every election is a humiliation for us, but as long as you give me a chance, it is enough to overturn the balance of power and weakness."

The strength of the Democratic Party is closely related to the economic strength of the South. From this point of view, Sheffield still needs time to help Dixie businesses develop and grow. At the same time, external efforts must also be strengthened. As long as the strengths of both parties can be brought closer,

You can tell him to do whatever he wants.

"No matter what industry we are in, we all need to have a certain share. We suffered too much in the last civil war. No matter how hard we fight, we can't expect to win against heavy machine guns with rifles!" Sheffield said tiredly, "Don't you agree?"

"Why are you talking about war?" McHale said with a helpless smile, "Are you planning another civil war?"

"It depends on whether the gentlemen of the northeastern states will let us take back our advantage. If they can accept their failure in the competition, there will be no need to fight!" Sheffield paused and said with a smile, "I

You’re just kidding, we’re having such a good time, why are we fighting a civil war?”

To say it is a visible threat, there have been more and more accusations against trust companies in these elections. The attitude towards trust companies can determine the choices of many voters in the election.

The new century has just arrived. This generation of citizens is not good enough and cannot fully understand the essence of a country. Sheffield believes that this is the result of happy education that has not yet been laid in place. Therefore, the dissatisfaction of the citizen class with trust companies will continue to rise one after another. By the century

This will still be a problem after that. Citizens will care about singing and dancing, so who cares about studying?

Sheffield has always believed that a company as big as United Company does not necessarily have to work hard in the three directions, so he has never paid attention to pornography, gambling and drugs. However, when he arrived in Puerto Rico, he finally succeeded and began to make plans to enter this industry.

The official decision to start operating a casino was a turning point for him. He began to free himself from the dilemma of standing still and entered the next stage. He had been troubled by Rockefeller's steel pie for so long. Suddenly he was now

If you have a clear mind, there are still many industries that could have an advantage and can be developed.

As if she knew that Sheffield had been unhappy recently, even Natalia, who had been playing hide and seek and refused to give in, was anxious. Regardless of Evelin being there, she asked anxiously, "What's wrong? I'm not in a good mood. Don't be angry."

.”

"I feel uncomfortable not being able to make money. I have been focusing on industries that I don't want to work in for so long, forgetting the advantages that I should have as a farmer! Am I stupid?" Sheffield said with a constipated expression.

He took out a cigar and then a bottle of red wine. He put the two things together, pointed at the cigarette and the wine and said, "Everyone is a consumer. People who smoke and drink cannot be said to need to eat."

There are many people. After all, everyone needs to eat, but at least one-third of the citizens have this hobby? Why didn’t I notice it for so long? I’m still wasting time in a place like this. If I hadn’t taken a vacation to change my mind

, maybe I’m still scratching my head at the reinforced concrete.”

"But these two things don't seem to be good for the body, right?" Evelin frowned. He didn't know that excessive alcohol and tobacco were harmful, but he instinctively believed that these two things were not good for the body. At least Xie

When Field wanted to be intimate with her after smoking, she felt a little resistant.

"To be honest, there is really no benefit. But for some workers who are engaged in heavy manual labor, these two things are also indispensable. If I don't do it, this industry will lack some order." Sheffield first admitted to Eve.

Lin's words make sense, but she also gave her own reason, "The lack of order means fakeness. If they add some bad things to it, the harm will be great."

Natalia rolled her eyes, also siding with Sheffield, and softly agreed, "Evelin, if William doesn't do this kind of thing, others will do it. The benefits of restoring order are better than

Such a chaotic development is better. If William takes the lead in both tobacco and alcohol, he can at least reduce the alcohol content and also reduce the harmful ingredients of tobacco. We should trust our men."

Sheffield nodded hurriedly. Those investigators investigating antitrust should learn more from Natalia. If everyone has this kind of awareness, only then can human beings have hope and can be long-term and even beyond.

"Is that so?" Evelin looked at the man and woman in front of her with some uncertainty, why did she feel weird.

"In fact, there are more benefits, which need to be found in life. For example, alcohol is the source of impulse for many people, but prohibiting alcohol will not necessarily solve this problem, because many people have this hobby. If there is no alcohol on the market,

Making wine is not difficult, but it still doesn’t work for a man, and because alcohol is prohibited, making wine is illegal, so for a man who wants to drink, not only can he not get rid of alcohol, but he is also suspected of breaking the law."

As for the benefits of smoking, Sheffield naturally understands the allusion that a brave man smokes for his country. One-fifth of the smokers pay taxes equivalent to the military expenditure of the Republic, and even 70% of the pension. Who dares to deny this

contribute?

"It seems to make sense!" Evelin had never been exposed to this aspect. She had observed it from her own family. Drinking didn't seem to be a good behavior. But with the cooperation of Sheffield and Natalia, it was resolved.

I vaguely felt that it still made sense.

The tobacco and alcohol trust has entered the slave owner's sight at this time. He must take a more serious attitude than dealing with the steel industry. At least tobacco is very suitable for monopoly. And for any country, it is

An important means of taxation. As a smoker, Sheffield felt that he was well suited to rectify tobacco order.

Who made Morgan focus on very high-end industries, and he didn't care about this kind of food and drink. But in fact, the market created by this kind of fast-moving consumables is no smaller than that of steel and cement.

Seeing that the project in Puerto Rico has begun to take shape, under the care of Governor Allen, Sheffield and its allies peacefully obtained the land. As for the local indigenous people who were dissatisfied with this, they naturally no longer exist. The vast ocean is still

For the local aborigines, life originated from the sea, and naturally it must return to the sea. Shenhai fits this very well.

In just a few months, a large number of slave-owner alliances have turned Puerto Rico upside down. Their practical actions have proved that they are the most professional group in the United States in dealing with these disobedient people.

"Have McHale and the others suppressed the people here?" Evelin hugged Sheffield from behind, pressed her head against the man's back, and sighed, "Is it necessary to be like this?"

"No, it was those Yankees who did it. We are a private company. How could we do such a thing? It was all done by the garrison on the island. You also know that the people on the island are still hostile to our country." Xie
