Chapter Eleven My Model

Judging from their age, these people who disembarked from the ship should all be born after the Civil War. They should be the second or third generation of each family. Maybe they were all born in Brazil. If you can take a boat to New Orleans, you can

It is said that I have made a lot of determination. It can be seen that the pressure faced by Brazil is quite high.

"Are you still talking?" Sheffield walked in front with a very calm expression. He seemed to have no interest in the distant southern hemisphere. It had nothing to do with him in the first place. He just accepted Lafayette's instructions and came to greet visitors from afar.

He himself was only sixteen years old, so naturally he could not sympathize with the revolutionary friendship of the Civil War.

"Yeah, we're still talking!" Gale said dryly, his voice a little low, and he was still a little depressed about the possible heavy losses. This was also the first time for him to experience such a thing.

Sheffield nodded, wanting to express some comfort, but he had just met these people and it was hard to be too enthusiastic. Especially given the situation these people were facing now, it would really be unreasonable for him to act too happy.

But Sheffield was also holding back very hard. Judging from the final result, the Sheffield family was robbed once because of the Civil War, but this was only on the surface. Because other planters immigrated to Brazil, Sheffield also accepted

The legacy they left behind, combined with the special nature of Texas, ultimately preserved its roots from being liquidated.

Texas is so important and special. Although there are many planters who immigrated to Brazil, there are also many who stayed. Their development after the war was obviously not as good as that of the Sheffield family, and now it has already

This widened the gap and formed a pattern in which the remaining people in the south follow Annabell's lead until now.

As a result of the Civil War, the victory of the North was unquestionable, but the top leaders of the South were not liquidated. The original plantation owners in the South were divided into two parts. Some chose to immigrate to Brazil, and they are the guests they are now welcoming. The rest

Staying locally, I have good relations with the Sheffield family now.

"Louisiana is such a good place." Gale said with emotion after arriving at Oak Manor, and the men and women who came together nodded after hearing this, obviously quite satisfied with the environment here.

The terrain of Louisiana is gentle. The Mississippi River runs through the eastern part of the state. There are broad alluvial plains on both sides of the river. A broad delta is formed at the mouth of the river, extending into the Gulf of Mexico.

It is already February. Louisiana has hot and humid summers and mild winters. The current temperature is very comfortable. Many people are commenting on the climate here as if no one else is watching, and they are obviously very satisfied with the environment here.

Although this is the first time he has set foot on the land here, he does not regard himself as an outsider. Sheffield fully understands this. When the landowners' returning group goes home, will they ask the farmers if they agree? No, these people from Brazil now

The nature of the people who come here is similar to that of the returning group. This place was once their home.

Who are these people, the descendants of slave owners who eat people without spitting out their bones? Moreover, these people who returned from Brazil can be said to have actually fought in two wars, and the smoke they have gone through is actually worse than that of the Sheffield family who stayed in the country.

One more time.

At Oak Manor, Sheffield had people prepare food and serve guests from far away. This was considered very sincere. The entire Louisiana was originally part of New France and was influenced by Spain, so Sheffield prepared French dishes.

A big meal, even though he doesn't have much knowledge about food, it just needs to be valuable.

Furthermore, French cuisine itself represents Western cuisine, especially when compared with the British Empire, which is the leader in the dark culinary world across the Taiwan Strait, the gap is like diamonds and sand.

On the one hand, he is so sincere because he is following Lafayette's arrangements. On the other hand, he does not reject these friends who have immigrated and are now preparing to immigrate back. To put it bluntly, with the capital of these people, they actually want to return to the United States.

It's an easy matter. Don't look at the current high level of xenophobia in the United States, but you also have to look at who is being excluded.

No matter what time it is, the rich are always more popular than the poor. It is not difficult at all for those who immigrated to Brazil to come back. So the question becomes, where to go back? The south or the north?

Although the hatred of the Civil War has passed since the Democratic Party came to power, it has been proved that the method of attracting hatred in every election is outdated. Today's voters no longer accept this method. However, the knot in their hearts has not been eliminated so quickly, especially in the South.

But the memory of the defeated will be more profound.

In the post-war South, Sheffield developed best, but one company could not compete with so many leaders in various industries in the North. It was also imperative to introduce foreign aid, otherwise the gap between the north and the south was huge. Even if Sheffield stood out in the south, it would not be possible.

What's the point? Besides, there are so many states in the South, and Sheffield can't be a leader in half of the United States. Who knows how long the Texas Army's legacy of saving face for the Union Army will last? Everyone knows.

Will be forgetful.

"Grandma's meaning is obvious. The manor you left behind when you immigrated to Brazil has been taken care of for many years. Our family also welcomes your return. We were all companions standing in the same trench back then." After three drinks.

After going through the dishes, Sheffield, who was holding a goblet, shook the wine in the glass, and said slowly, "You have been away for many years, and the United States has undergone tremendous changes. Today's Brazil and today's United States are completely different.

To put it bluntly, even if you want to become a millionaire, it is far better to do it in the United States than anywhere else in the entire America."

"You are not immigrants when you come back. This place itself is your home. Look, these estates are where our fathers lived. Is this what you need when you run away to Brazil in disgrace?" Sheffield Station

He stood up and pointed to the north and said, "When we get to Brazil, we are still in disgrace. Can't we defeat them in the same way as the Yankees? Are they the only ones who have money? Don't we have the money?"

"William, I roughly understand what you mean. The Sheffield family treats us as always. They asked me to come over for this reason. It has been thirty years since I left the United States. I want to come back and take a look at the environment." Gale said to him.

Sheffield raised his glass and said, "Now that we have seen the attitude of the Sheffield family, we feel that things should go smoothly."

"We were once mates in the trenches, and the Sheffields would never do anything to disgrace their comrades." Sheffield pointed at the light bulb and swore, with such integrity that such words could be applied to him now.
