"There is no doubt that although you are black, the United Company has not treated you badly for a long time. Jesra brought you here, and there is no doubt that he has full trust in you." The living room of Arlington Manor, Sheffield

He walked past five black youths, shook the fried chicken in his hand and gestured, "It's like some habits left over from the slavery era, choosing to avoid it because of pain, and also to acknowledge this experience as motivation to move forward."

The former are the black men of the North, and the latter are you black men who chose to fight for the Confederacy."

"The two parties are different on how to treat you. The Republican Party says some nice words but does nothing. What we implement here is the principle of segregation and equality. There are absolutely no restrictions on black people who can work hard to get rich.

.I am very happy that the black community in Texas is currently the richest black community in the country, no worse than many white communities." Sheffield threw away the finished chicken bones, clapped his hands and said, "Nothing is free in the world.

lunch, you help me, I will give back to you, not even just to you personally, but to the entire black Texas community, the entire Texas and even the entire South know that the black people here are Confederates.

Descendants of soldiers."

"Although you have chosen the opposite choice of most ethnic groups, the feedback you have received today is also huge. This mission is very important, and you must even be prepared to sacrifice your lives." Sheffield looked at several lights.

The black subordinates who knew their attributes said word by word, "If it succeeds, I will give you great benefits, the best community schools, the best hospitals, and support you in starting a business. Of course, it will remain the same as before.

You still have to develop independently and cannot mix with black people from other states. Most black groups have only a negative impact on you, and your ancestors were on the side of the Confederacy and are traitors to them."

Sheffield first talked about history to narrow the distance between the two parties, and then used the bright future to inspire a few black youths. That's how it was, using the glorious history and bright future to bribe current people to use it.

The methods of employing people are nothing more than these.

"We have all worked in black gold companies and understand what kind of foundation today's life is based on. We will definitely complete this matter." The leading black young man bowed slightly and said,

"Then, remember this man's photo in your mind!" Sheffield took out the photo of Rasputin from his pocket and said, "I was entrusted by a powerful foreign noble to handle this matter. This will affect the entire United Company.

Development is very important, and the huge profits in the future will depend on the results of your actions."

Sheffield did not give the photos of Rasputin to these black youths, but asked them to remember them and ordered, "Remember, only kill this person. If there are others present that day, do not attack others."

, if someone witnesses it, bring the person back and I will deal with it personally, especially not against women."

Several black youths nodded, and then led by Padella, they left the manor and found a place to stay.

"Did people within the Russian Empire ask you to do this?" After a few people left, Anne came out of the room next to her, holding a family photo of the Imperial Russian royal family in her hand, and said with some worry, "Rasputin always talks to Ni

If Queen Gula and her family are together, if things don't go well, will it implicate us?"

"It's not as terrible as you think. Nicholas II himself was assassinated. If you recall carefully, you will find that many political figures have died under assassination in recent years, and President William McKinley is just one of them.

." Sheffield took the photo from his wife's fingertips and took a look at it, "It's a little ugly. Within a few decades, it seems that the image in the photo cannot make humans look better."

To use the terminology of previous textbooks, it means that we have entered a period when the contradictions between imperialism and imperialism are particularly acute. People in various countries have assassinated political figures to vent their dissatisfaction. This is the real social scene at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.

You can't see it, but the restlessness in the societies of various countries will always leak out, such as the Sarajevo incident.

The Sarajevo incident was just an assassination that caused huge consequences. Others were distributed in various countries and did not cause a world war.

"What? Which one do you like?" When she heard her husband comment on the woman in the photo, Anne smiled angrily, "This is the Imperial Russian royal family, and I said, any of the five women in it are your age.

It’s not a match. But it’s a pity. If you can really marry the Imperial Russian royal family, it would be a good choice, but I’m afraid others won’t like it.”

As a descendant of French nobles, Anne holds a title and attaches great importance to noble marriages. This is different from the duplicitous rich people in the United States. The rich people in the United States do not attach importance to it on the surface, but in their hearts they are eager to find the descendants of European nobles to marry. Slave owners are completely

Be one of those who bring glory to the country!

"If there is such a chance, it's troublesome. I will definitely die. The age is not right! In fact, our children are not suitable either. Alexander is younger than anyone here, not to mention that I have sold him for a good price. What about you?

I know that too." Sheffield shrugged and quickly dismissed Anne's unrealistic thoughts.

"It would be foolish not to seize the opportunity. They are the emperor's daughters, and each of them is a Grand Duchess." Anne disagreed with this, and immediately heard her husband say, "How much is a Grand Duchess worth? James Duke's

My daughter has a fortune of hundreds of millions of dollars. I am a relatively vulgar person, so I still think U.S. dollars are more practical."

In his heart, Sheffield had the idea of ​​imitating the Russian operation to prop up the orthodoxy of the Eastern Roman Empire. He wanted to use Nicholas II's daughter to raise the banner of Russian orthodoxy and give a big gift to the newly born Soviets.

But he really has no one in his hands now. Look at the marriage partners of his two sons, a tobacco king and a steel king. Should he let the only daughter of a billionaire be a child? Or should the daughter of Nicholas II be a child?

Fortunately, there is no need to consider the follow-up operations for the time being. The Imperial Russian mission has not yet arrived in Texas, and the slave owners who have returned to the base camp in advance have already begun to make arrangements and plot a conspiracy as the host.

Having said that, no one in the entire United States knows how to entertain foreign guests better than Sheffield. After all, he has organized the Olympic Games and launched the World Expo. He is still an expert on how to run a grand event.

First of all, they used public opinion to express their welcome to the Imperial Russian royal family. Although slave owners always said that Yang Ji was a licking dog of the Europeans, they actually knew it in their hearts. Who didn't? The Dixie people also felt that it was just not as eye-catching as New York.

With Sheffield here, the licking will only become more explicit. As early as when he went to France to abduct his wife and returned home when he was young, he once explicitly stated that Louis XVI was the true founding father of the United States, and France played an indispensable role in the founding of the United States.

This time the target was changed to Imperial Russia. If Louis XVI is considered the founding father of the United States, the scope is expanding a bit. There are many founding fathers of the United States. France was just one of them who rushed to help in the War of Independence. Britain's enemies on the European continent.

Almost all expressed support for the War of Independence, and of course Imperial Russia was among them.

Due to the feuds and conflicts between France, Spain, and the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, they also had motives for aid. In the early days of the war, due to the defeat of the US military on the battlefield, the aid from France, Spain, and the Netherlands was mainly in the form of secret economic aid. The main form of economic aid was

These include: loans, grants, supply of military supplies, and transportation of officers. Economic assistance was particularly important for the maintenance of the War of Independence. After the alliance between France and the United States, France, Spain, and the Netherlands openly participated in the war against Britain and began to provide military assistance to the United States.

On the other side, Imperial Russia happened to be under the rule of Catherine the Great. The armed neutrality alliance formed by Imperial Russia and the Nordic countries isolated Britain diplomatically, leaving Britain embattled on all sides.

The Russian community in Texas has raised the tricolor flag of the Russian Empire and is full of expectations for the imperial Russian royal family who is about to arrive. As the largest media tycoon in the United States, the slave owner took Empress Nicholas and Ekaterina against their will.

Even if the only similarity between the two is that they are both Germanic women.

"It seems that newspaper sales have dropped in the past few days!" Sheffield noticed this first. Wasn't the licking a bit disgusting, which aroused the disgust of many Texas citizens?

In any case, the imperial Russian mission arriving west from New Orleans in Houston received a warm welcome. This even caused some Yankee newspapers to accuse them of believing that the Russian immigrants were not loyal to the United States. This was certainly the case in the twentieth century.

At the beginning, the federal government, which also adhered to the principle of no-nonsense diplomacy, lost harmony.

Sheffield directly gave Rasputin the schedule in Texas. It must be said that this kind of operation of killing the opponent and requiring the other party to actively cooperate is very fulfilling. What is even more fulfilling is that,

Rasputin did not know that his death was imminent, and he fully approved of his host's itinerary.

"All we need in the world is a magician!" Sheffield put out his cigarette fiercely and dialed the phone with a puff of white smoke. "The fifth stop is San Antonio. It's inland and the conditions are very good. Remember,

I only want Rasputin's life, and I don't want to hurt anyone else."

"Understood!" After a simple reply, there was no more sound from the other side of the phone.

On June 21, Empress Nicholas took her four daughters, as well as the Imperial Russian envoys including Rasputin, to San Antonio, the second largest city in Texas. Along the way, many Imperial Russian envoys
Chapter completed!
