It was obviously not a shameful occasion, but after McHale appeared and disappeared immediately, the two of them fell into a suffocating silence. It was awkward, very embarrassing.

"I won't do anything without profit. It's not my intention to be unhappy with the Democrats for your benefit." Sheffield spoke again. He felt that what he said this time was very clear. He would never do it because of so-called class sentiments.

, just destroy the good relationship with the Democratic Party that has always been good, and how much class sentiment has to be distributed, everyone is a black-hearted capitalist, let alone help, it is all out of sight.

If you don't come up with conditions that make the Sheffield family excited, then what's the point of talking about? What a nonsense!

"Isn't the friendship with the Rockefeller family important? What party interests do people like you care about?" Edith Rockefeller was very angry now, very angry. Sheffield was simply less important than her husband.

"The Democratic Party has been a friend of our family for many years. They have been together for a long time and have similar interests!" Sheffield looked coldly and stared into Edith Rockefeller's eyes word by word. He didn't look away until she wanted to avoid the gaze.

He flicked his cigarette ashes and said, "I have to pay more..."

"I'm moved by what you said!" Edith Rockefeller pouted, thinking that the outstanding representative of southern interests and the sole heir of the Sheffield family was a person who stood firm and unmoved, but it turned out that it was still a matter of money, so she said

, “What exactly do you need to help with this?”

"I don't know either!" Sheffield thought hard for a long time, but seemed to have nothing to say. The Rockefeller family couldn't help in the competition for fruits in Central America. They wanted to enter Mexico for exploration and needed help from their own family.

Sheffield will not let go of agricultural products. No matter who is standing behind Kean, he will not take a step back. Agriculture and animal husbandry are the foundation of the family. If he dares to give up halfway, Lafayette will not spare him.

As for the international community, the friction between the United States and the British Empire is still continuing, but it is not as tense as it was at the beginning. Quite simply, even if the United States has the courage to do anything to the United Kingdom, the domestic environment in the United Kingdom has emerged.

After the change, the virtuous Colonial Secretary Joseph Chamberlain changed his goal after his attempt to teach the United States a lesson was suppressed by the British Prime Minister.

He began to turn to the Imperial Confederation plan in his heart, trying to turn the British Empire into a real imperial entity. The most important thing here was the fight for southern Africa. Chamberlain's friend, the mining magnate Cecil Rhodes, took office in the British Cape.

The colonial prime minister's ill will towards the Boers was very obvious.

Cecil Rhodes and Chamberlain had the same ambition, which was to strengthen the British Empire's control over the world. This coincided with Chamberlain's idea of ​​turning the British Empire into a truly great empire.

Of course, Sheffield didn't know about Cecil Rhodes, but after learning that his company was called De Beers, he suddenly remembered the saying, "A diamond is forever! A diamond is forever!" It turns out that this is what he meant to the whole world.

The source of men’s IQ tax.

Although he has never known why diamonds, which are composed of the same carbon, are so valuable, they control the main origins and can sell them for any price. Isn't the price of oil in the United States also controlled by the Rockefeller family?

The problem of diamonds needs to be solved artificially. This is not something Sheffield cares about. However, the international situation did make him think of exchange terms. He chirped and glanced at Edith Rockefeller, "I want a share of the arms order. This

We need the consent of the House of Representatives and the Senate, and if you can help me do it, everything will be easy to discuss."

During the current crisis in Venezuela, the United States, with its weak military strength, encountered the British Empire, the world's policeman. All it could do was to protest fiercely and internally. We, the United Kingdom, did not take the United States seriously at all.

It was just a fluke that people felt that things in southern Africa were more important, so they took the initiative to cool down. Just like the United States felt that the Middle East was more important, and let a certain big country off. But even if it was a lucky escape, wouldn't you be afraid? You can't develop military power again and again.

It has definitely become the consensus of both parties to conquer the world with ten thousand armies.

In fact, the news from Washington also proves this point. Military expansion is inevitable. Sheffield remembers that when the Spanish-American War broke out in history, the United States had already expanded its military strength a lot in just a few years, which was enough to deal with

Spain's kind of yesterday's flower.

"DuPont is also counting on expanding its military strength to increase its turnover!" Edith Rockefeller did not dare to say that she was extremely smart, but she was knowledgeable enough. Upon hearing this, she knew that Sheffield was eyeing the cake of military expansion.

Moreover, the relationship between the two families has been very bad since the beginning of the Civil War. If the base camps were not far away from each other and they were wary of each other, they would have found a place to set up their positions and gesticulate.

In recent years, the DuPont family has caused chaos within the company due to succession issues, and the addition of the Democratic Party's coming to power has led to the ebb and flow of both sides in the military industry, not to mention the gun-carrying tradition of the southern folk themselves.

What if the DuPont family didn't get a big share of the cake of military expansion? Edith Rockefeller couldn't help but worry about this old company.

"President Cleveland is now in the White House, and the Democratic Party is in power. It is certainly impossible for DuPont to get a bigger share than my family. But in the past few years, there have been problems in the DuPont family. As a long-term close friend of the DuPont family, our family must do something.

." Sheffield filed his nails and said lazily, "You should understand the long-standing friendship between the Dupont and Sheffield families."

The friendship between your two families is so strong that it has been going on since the Civil War. Just when Edith Rockefeller was about to speak, Sheffield said first, "Among the two houses of Congress, the Senate has bigger problems. With your family's help,

, this is not a problem, and William Bryan is not a problem either."

"Can you promise?" Edith Rockefeller asked in a deep voice after hearing this, "Don't let this person come to power."

"Well, there is absolutely no problem. Even if he comes to power, it can still be solved!" Sheffield squinted his eyes and nodded solemnly, "For this reason, I can even donate a mental hospital to help the truly disadvantaged groups in the United States."

What does this have to do with mental hospitals? Edith Rockefeller found that she could not understand the boy's words, so she asked stupidly, "Are you planning to do charity?"

"If you insist on thinking so, just take it as it is!" Sheffield chuckled, thinking that teasing the young woman is quite interesting. It is definitely a dream to expect him to do charity. From the perspective of the two giants of the Republic Internet, doing charity is not as good as

I know how to market Chicken Soup for the Soul. If I plant some trees, I dare to take credit for the protective forest that the country has invested heavily in. Isn’t that great?
