"How busy I am!" Busy building his own happiness on the pain of others, Sheffield spread his hands and said, "Currently, there are still countries such as Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom to go to. It involves chemical industry

, firearms, and there are many other items.”

"I'll talk to Susan and ask Anne to go with you. I'm doing this for your own good." Harry Sheffield snapped his fingers and seemed to have discovered a perfect opportunity. He had no idea where his son was going.

Not interested, he won't go anyway.

"Thank you!" Sheffield smiled and kept nodding along with the old man's words, "I didn't expect the patent authorization to go smoothly. Grandma was right."

"That was mainly my father's plan. When the Franco-Prussian War broke out, my father was already seriously ill, but by purchasing agricultural products in his own name, he stabilized the situation among the French people at that time. This was how we established a relationship and had nothing to do with me." Harry Sheffield shrugged.

, and did not claim credit in front of his son.

Learned! Sheffield suddenly became enlightened. Is agriculture a big stick? The industrial problem is a question of whether you can survive. The agricultural problem is a question of whether you can survive. Kissinger said: If you control oil, you will

Control all countries; if you control food, you control all people.

Agricultural hegemony is also the most stable hegemony of the United States in later generations. Through low tariffs and free trade, the agricultural products of the United States have impacted the grain markets of most countries to pieces.

Among them, Haiti, one of the two biggest lickers in the United States, suffered this kind of treatment in later generations. After the tariff threshold was lowered, U.S. rice, which enjoyed federal government subsidies, quickly occupied Haiti's grain by virtue of its price advantage of being half the price of Haitian rice.

market, eventually reaching more than 80% of the market share, a large number of farmers lost their jobs, and the agricultural industry was destroyed.

You must know that Haiti's food self-sufficiency rate was 95% before. It is by no means a country with insufficient agricultural foundation. To deal with Japan and South Korea, which have large populations, and even Egypt and Saudi Arabia, which are desert environments, the United States does not need soldiers to suppress the border.

, as long as through the international food suppliers in hand, spreading famine can be caused with the move of a finger.

In the field of agriculture alone, not to mention ordinary countries, even the Republic is not an opponent. If you grow the same crop, the price here in the United States will definitely be lower. This is already good, and it can also maintain domestic food stability. Generally

The United States of America raises the stick of agriculture, which is enough to cause unrest in its opponents.

But when he thought about the issue of agricultural products, Sheffield frowned slightly and said to the old man, "The prices of domestic agricultural products are rising now. If we export them at low prices, what if this spreads?"

"Screw those Yankees! Just do it!" Harry Sheffield said with contempt on his face, "I heard Rich Martin say that now the domestic economy is in depression and panic is spreading. It is their own panic buying that has caused the price to rise.

What do you care about us?"

"That makes sense!" Sheffield put his hands in his pockets, seemingly convinced.

"So you should take Anne with you. She has no one around, so you can't just take them casually." The old man clenched his fists and said shamelessly, "When I came to Paris, what about the Marquise and the Countess?

Congressmen, banks, and financiers are all invincible. After meeting them three times at most, they succumbed to my personal charm."

"It's money power!" Sheffield endured the spitting stars flying around, and used a tactic to duck back and avoid the range. Leng Youyou added, "I heard that this disease is rampant in Paris. As a son, I still remind you to be careful.

a little."

Really not wanting to endure the relapsed old man, Sheffield pointed directly at the ceiling and said, "Time is running out. I will go to Belgium soon to discuss patent licensing issues. Then I will go to the German Empire to inspect the chemical industry, and finally go to London.

London is the place my grandmother told me I had to go to."

These days, the United States can export very few flagship products, and even the quality of guns made with ancestral skills is not as good as that of Belgium. However, firearms do not require high quality, as long as they can kill people without exploding the chamber.

Sheffield also doesn’t appreciate things that are of too good quality. If the quality of the product is too good, wouldn’t that break the rules of the market? Therefore, it is best to have an appropriate point for the quality issue to ensure both scale and sales while taking into account quality. The former is more important than the latter.

Take Standard Oil as an example. The reason why Standard Oil successfully broke out of the Americas and entered the world is inseparable from the discovery of the Pennsylvania oil field, which was the largest oil field discovered in the world at that time.

As for the Middle East, which became famous all over the world in later generations, it was widely circulated at this time that there was no oil at all under the vast deserts of the Middle East. Rockefeller's Standard Oil looks so powerful now because at that time, only the oil fields in Pennsylvania had large oil fields.

Large-scale production allowed Standard Oil to successfully break out of the Americas and enter the world.

But in fact, no one said how powerful Saudi Arabia was in a similar role in later generations. Just like the Republic cannot brag about how powerful the rare earth industry is. You have occupied the source for so many years, so you should be more powerful.

It became the blood of industry only in the 20th century when large-scale commercial use began, but this does not mean that the value of petroleum was not demonstrated in the 19th century. The kerosene separated from petroleum made petroleum a commodity for the first time.

It is an important resource. But it cannot be said that it is more important than coal.

DuPont only seems to be very powerful in the United States, but in the field of chemical industry, Sheffield still feels that he should trust the Germans. After all, as a senior German fan, he can remember a series of sarin and mustard gas, all produced by Farben Chemical

What the company has accomplished, it is ranked number one in the world, and it is definitely better than DuPont.

Harry Sheffield sent his son to the train station, took out a card and handed it over and said, "This is the contact information of the former president of the Paris branch of Deutsche Bank, Greg Seton. If you encounter any difficulties in Germany

, he might be able to help."

"Since you have this connection, why don't you come with me." Sheffield was about to raise his hand, but was pulled back by Anne holding her arm.

"How busy I am!" Harry Sheffield said with a serious rejection. German women were really not within his appetite. "I even considered life for you, and even convinced Earl Susan to let Anne take care of you. First of all,

What should I do if I get lost when I come to Europe for the first time? There is only such an heir in the family."
