What does France need now? That is capital output. For financial bankers, interests are far more important than other things, but sooner or later they will understand that local strength is still necessary to be truly powerful.

To be precise, European countries recognize that the United States may have its own impact on the world trip, and will have to delay it instead of now, because in the eyes of European countries, the United States is still a former colony with less powerful military power.

It made them feel that the United States of America was a threat. It had to wait until the war between the United States and Spain, and the United States defeated the Spanish Empire at sunset west with a new attitude, giving European countries an extremely powerful impact. At that time, the American threat theory made headlines in various countries and became the mainstream public opinion of these countries.

It was also the result of the United States defeating the Spanish Empire that these European countries realized the importance of local power. Colonies are colonies, and that kind of power cannot replace local status.

After that, European countries changed their understanding of their territory and began to strengthen local construction. The purpose of expansion also changed from competing for colonies to defeating the enemy and breaking into each other's territory.

As European observers at the end of the nineteenth century acknowledged, the United States, as a pioneer in this new concept of territory, rationally utilized the human resources, technology, and social institutions in her hands to maximize the intake of natural resources in North America and consolidated the market's dominance in domestic economic activities.

The war in the United States to defeat Spain marked that European countries were not invincible. Later, the island countries defeated Imperial Russia, indicating that white countries were not invincible. The significance of these two wars was very important.

The current European countries have no unified idea of ​​the United States. Some people think that the United States in the Americas is a threat, with a huge territory and a large population. Some people think that the United States' military strength is not strong, especially the French people's idea, and their vigilance towards Britain and Germany is far greater than their vigilance towards the United States.

On the issue of Europe, the French were wary of Germany, and on the issue of the world, the French had a bad relationship with the British. The Three Kingdoms Alliance and the Three Kingdoms Agreement were still in the process of forming, and the French were not very able to judge, which one is more damn, the British or the Germans.

The United States of America is naturally not the small transparent ones they used to be, but there is still some time before the public criticism. After she met the dark side of Paris, Sheffield witnessed some deals between old men and young women, and felt that she could do something.

"Isn't men all like this?" He built his happiness on the pain of others and liked to find some places where others were worse than themselves. This is Sheffield's personal hobby. However, this time he was a little irrelevant to the occasion and did not worry about being followed by a Count's daughter.

In Anna's eyes, this way of browsing the red light district in Paris is simply to her. Is it to let herself take the initiative? Why did she meet such a shameless person when she traveled with a man for the first time?

A fallen imperialist country! Sheffield finally understood why the old man chose to settle in Paris. It was normal for the old man and the girl he had just met in Paris to match.

"Because you talk to me in English, you see that the woman just now seems to be a little hostile to me? What is this? Is it patriotism? It's obviously sold!" Although Sheffield just took a casual look, it doesn't mean that he didn't observe anything. He didn't show off until he left a long distance, "Even they have the pride of the French people? Do they sell their skills or not?"

"Maybe it?" Anna had a fever on her face, and she wanted to find a hole to get into it. This bastard was hinting that I took the initiative, the damn American bun.

The French are indeed arrogant. People's desire for greatness and lofty and their expectations for national pride have always been above the belief in freedom, equality and fraternity. In the weakness of the Republic and the greatness of the imperial system, the arrogant French never hesitated to choose the latter.

The French love freedom more than any nation in the world, but they can also modify the meaning of freedom according to actual needs; the French can sacrifice their lives for democracy, but they can also sing praises for the dynasty with conscience; the French can abolish slavery early for fraternity, but they can also build a colonial empire.

Sheffield felt that this was just a double standard. The French's thinking was that strength was more important than life. It is estimated that in Europe, only the gray animals under the Imperial and Russia were more perverted than them. No wonder France and Imperial and Russia have always had a good relationship, and they turned out to have a common language.

"Since they are arrogant, I will praise them, which is to manipulate public opinion." Sheffield, who had been walking around, had already made a decision and asked very gentlemanly, "Which is the most influential newspaper?"

"Le Figaro!" Although she felt that Sheffield's question was a bit stupid, the girl answered the question.

"Le Figaro" was founded in 1826. Its registration comes from the protagonist of the famous play "The Wedding of Figaro" by French playwright Beaumarche. Its motto is very well-known all over the world, that is, if criticism is not free, praise is meaningless. In the minds of France, especially Parisians, "Le Figaro" has a strong influence.

When Sheffield returned to the apartment, the guests had not left yet. Harry Sheffield nodded at the two people coming in, pointed to the stairs and asked the two people to go up and continued to discuss matters.

"Mr. Fernande! Le Figaro has a strong influence in the nobles and proletarians of Paris. Now our Secretary of State is officially visiting Paris. As a citizen of the United States, I have some words to say to all citizens of France. This requires your help." Rich Martin came to Le Figaro and met Fernande Rodé, editor-in-chief of Le Figaro at this time. "Although the long-term friendship between France and the United States has twists and turns, it will not fade. We believe that in this world, if the British are in a madness, the only one who can awaken them is the French."

"Dear Mr. Martin, you must know that as an objective and neutral newspaper, Le Figaro will not use his influence indiscriminately, and tomorrow's content has been edited." Fernande Rodé, who crossed his fingers on the table, declined with an apology, "Maybe I can't help with this."

Ricky Martin sighed, as if he knew that this would not be so smooth from the beginning, and extended his hand, "Five thousand francs!"

"Trade!" A bright color flashed in his eyes after Fernande Rodé's lenses, and he spoke with his unique cultivation.
