Chapter 661 Arranged Marriage
"Maybe one day, I can visit your hometown." Sheffield, who arrived at the sea off Los Angeles, held the fence and looked at the distant coastline, said with a relaxed expression.
The people on the ship have already walked out of the cabin and are waiting to dock. Fortunately, there are no passengers on this ship. All the passengers are employees of Black Gold Company, so there is no need to worry about panic when getting off the ship.
"Actually, I have never seen my hometown. I don't know what the real Russian Empire is like." Natalia said with a somewhat embarrassed face, "My parents had already arrived in the United States before I was born."
"It's a respectable and feared country, but you don't know what state it will be in when you come into contact with it. If there are any advantages in the Slavs, they are all reflected in Russia." Sheffield patted his chest and said,
"If there is a chance, I will definitely take you there, but it may take a few years."
Sheffield didn't say it completely. Maybe Natalia's hometown will have a new name by then, the ultimate enemy of the United States, the Soviet Union! For the slave-owning class, it is best not to appear in this country, but some things are destined.
. Even the slave owners had no choice.
Moreover, it is impossible for the United States to take the initiative to overthrow a powerful new regime. That is the leader of the Slavic world, not Haiti or Honduras.
Thinking of the emergence of this most troublesome enemy of the monopoly capitalists, Sheffield couldn't help but feel a little headache. There is no country and there will never be any country that can make him worry about problems with his life.
Other competitors can be discussed, but the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union is a matter of life and death. One of the two countries must fall. Will Morgan and Rockefeller watch a country that has eliminated the aristocracy develop and grow? No! Neither can Sheffield, the whole
The heads of the upper echelons of Diou are on the ground, what else can be said.
The Soviet Union is a threat as long as it is alive, because as long as inequality exists, this country will always be another beacon in the world. Fortunately, it committed suicide in the end, which is worthy of celebration.
After getting off the ship and getting on the car heading to Evelyn Manor, the slave owner, who was drifting in confusion at sea, realized that it was already 1914, the year when the World War broke out. It was so exciting.
"The Republican Party has launched propaganda for the mid-term elections." Evelyn nodded to Natalia and Mary Pickford, then turned to Sheffield and said, "It seems to have put a lot of effort into it."
"I don't care what the Republican Party does now." Sheffield's face was as calm as if it had been burned with an iron. "So what if they take back control of some states? Except for a few progressive parties and the Republican Party.
Forty of the controlled states have enacted segregation state laws, and the White America policy has been implemented across the country. The future has been determined, and no one can shake it, at least not domestically."
The slave owner thought that he should not finish his words. As far as he knew, the external environment of the black equal rights movement in later generations was that the United States of Vietnam was disgraced, and the Soviet Union launched a global offensive, which made many high-level officials of the two parties believe that equal rights must be equalized.
It’s this country that hasn’t appeared yet! Sheffield’s face remained unchanged. He couldn’t think of a way to stop and said, “Anyway, I will kill anyone who dares to shake the immigration bill, even if this person is the president. I want him and the Lincoln family.
Same."
"I am going to do a good thing for the supporters of the Democratic Party." Sheffield thought for a moment and said, "After being an entrepreneur for so many years, I should feel sorry for the country and spend some money to win people's hearts. Now the Democratic Party is in power
I will give them a statue to all the white communities in the state. Whether it is President Davis or General Robert E. Lee, they can choose one of all the Confederate politicians. As long as the community accepts it, I can give it to them. The Confederate flag is required
No, at least if you see this flag, their community will not be disturbed by some bad people. Looking for a hill with good geology, I will take the heads of the President, Vice President, Secretary of State and General Robert E. Lee of the Confederacy. States.
If you want to find them all, I’ll hire someone to carve them.”
The statue of the President of later generations of civilization is on Mount Rushmore. This place is good, and Sheffield is going to take the spot first.
"This costs a lot of money, and the direction is too clear. Someone may criticize you." Evelin said with some worry, "After losing twice in a row, the Republican Party has made a lot of efforts to win the Civil War in recent years.
effort."
"Instigating regional issues? Our country has an Electoral College system, and I'm not afraid of them." Sheffield said in a strange tone, "Just to see how arrogant I have been in the past few years? Have you never seen me as honest as a grandson before? Today, all this is
The Republicans asked for it. Who told them not to kill the United Company after they won the civil war? Now there is no such chance. Give me another ten years. When internationalization is truly completed, no one can do anything to me."
"Then let's start in the name of charitable reconstruction!" Evelin sighed softly and found a suitable reason for the slave owner.
"What a good idea. The South can decide on matters in the South. We don't need these Yankees to help us rebuild anything." Sheffield patted his forehead and said, "But we should discuss it with President Wilson and provide some national policy support. The Democratic Party will not do anything for Dixie."
Do you still act like a human being when doing things?"
Reconstruction after the Civil War can be said to have failed. During the economic crisis when the Morgan family massively infiltrated the railroads, the entire United States fell into an economic crisis, and the southern states did not recover from the Civil War.
This period even lasted until after World War II, with the black equal rights movement, and the southern states were rebuilt again. Now Sheffield thinks it is a good time, and there is no need to wait for decades.
Moreover, the midterm elections have not yet begun, and the current Democratic Party still has an overwhelming advantage everywhere. It has the right not to expire and become invalid. Taking advantage of a strong period that is rare in a century, it should be passed directly.
"I should unite with the companies in the South and put some pressure on the federal government." Sheffield, who had just returned to the United States, finally thought of giving back to the remnants of the Confederacy. It was not too late, and he still had a few months to use.
In January 1914, at this congressional consultation, President Wilson stated that there was a new economic stimulus plan.
Intensifying. The goal of national reconciliation has not been completely achieved, but what is gratifying is that citizens across the country have reached a consensus on this. The box office of the second part of The Birth of a Nation is proof that we should not quarrel over racial issues.
Go ahead and focus on making all citizens live a better life. In the future, the federal government will introduce policies to assist, develop some economically backward states, and eliminate the trauma since the Civil War. This will of course require some well-known companies.
I’m very much looking forward to your assistance.”
"This is good for you again!" said little Morgan, shaking his wine glass. "He left the country without making any noise, and then came back without making any noise, catching everyone off guard."
"You don't get any benefits? To be honest, I'm not prepared to make money on this matter. Unlike you rich people who were born in big cities, I'm a country boy. I have a certain degree of rural sentiment towards the South. It's not too much.
?" Sheffield whistled and said, "The development of the Great Lakes region has been completed. I will give you a larger market and no longer set up obstacles to your capital. What else do you want?"
"It's true. Without your help, it would be very difficult for us to break through the barrier between the southern bases." Little Rockefeller nodded, "Of course I agree with this. The market of 30 million citizens in the south is
The level of development is much lower than in the north, which will contribute to the development of Vaughn's career."
"That's right, I have suddenly become very interested in history recently. I am planning to do charity! To introduce European carving technology into the country, we cannot let Europeans do all the easy work, but we must also cultivate the aesthetic sense of our citizens.
"Sheffield showed a harmless smile and said, "As for the benefits from this reconstruction, I am going to buy a piece of land in Canada and give it to Louisa or Edith."
The few people communicated very smoothly. Sheffield chuckled and said, "Then I won't bother you. I'm going back to New Orleans to see how my school is doing."
New Orleans Union University, a school where slave owners invested heavily, would be the cradle of white supremacy a hundred years later. As the chairman of the board of directors, he has not been here much, except when dividends are distributed at the end of the year.
.
But today is different. In the corner of the university, a Sheffield mascot, tilted his head and looked at his and Edith Rockefeller's son, and said rudely, "It's unimaginable. I created it for you."
In such a superior environment, you have made no progress at all for such a long time."
"Father!" William Rockefeller looked at the sudden arrival of Sheffield with some fear in his mouth, "Emotions cannot be forced, and Margaret has no special opinion of me."
"Then what? Do you know that there is a mountain of gold in front of you!" Sheffield clutched his chest and was furious, "Carnegie is just a daughter. You are of the same age, so what is there to hesitate about? You don't have to worry about that old man Carnegie.
Forget it, I'll take care of this myself. I'll ask the school to organize a field trip right away. I'll look at the location as being in the Midwestern state, where the Indians are. I'll create some space for you and show your courage when you take risks.
.”
For the sake of his own son, Sheffield was also worried. This sullen look did not look like a slave owner at all, but more like the Rockefellers. If you don't take the initiative to speak, others will always be able to sit still.
Chapter completed!
