As the passenger ship slowly left Manila, Sheffield embarked on the journey back to China. Fortunately, Dream of Red Mansions could pass the time. He was not disparaging other books. The other three of the so-called four great classics were not on the same level as Dream of Red Mansions in terms of literary quality.

On grade.

Having a book to pass the time during a long journey is a very happy thing in itself, but this is a pain for Anne. She obviously did not inherit the soil of France that is rich in literary talents. Even people like Sheffield love her more than him.

Anne could only pass the time by chatting. She looked at the unknown fonts on the books in Sheffield's hands and said helplessly, "Are these books better than mine?"

"No! But it saves effort. Although you look good, you still have to consider whether my body can bear the food." Sheffield glanced at Anne. Although he still maintained a serious posture, he did not hesitate to talk, "Books from other countries can be

Understand the thoughts of other countries from them. From a literary point of view, France and Russia are the most popular in the world today. However, in the Eastern world, you don’t need to look at other countries, just look at Chinese literature. As for other countries, they are even less worth mentioning. I can

Think about what the Chinese think before you dare to use them."

"Then what do you think are the differences between different countries?" Anne thought to herself. Well, it's too boring on the passenger ship anyway, so she should be a considerate and beautiful woman and chat with her man.

"If you want to hear about it, then let's talk about it. From the perspective of the monarchy power of various countries in history, the power of monarchs in European countries is not great. Monarchs like the current emperor of the German Empire are very rare. Most monarchs are under the control of the Holy See and

Under the constraints of feudal lords, many monarchs in the Middle Ages claimed to be the most loyal servants of God. The monarchs in the Middle East were a little stronger in this regard, but not much stronger. They claimed to be the servants of Allah."

"The Japanese royal family claims to be the emperor. As the projection of Shintoism in the human world, it has much greater power than the Western monarchs." Sheffield pondered for a moment and said, "But this is not the most powerful. The Chinese emperor started from a very early age.

He calls himself the Emperor, which seems to be more modest than the Japanese. In fact, the power of the Chinese emperor is unparalleled. As long as anything can be done in the world, the Chinese emperor can do it."

To put it simply, the European monarchs are the servants of gods, the Japanese monarchs are the spokespersons of gods, and the Chinese emperors are relatively free. Come on, you can declare a god to the world.

Chinese emperors can manage everything between heaven and earth. Except that they cannot live forever, when they are alive, they are almost like living gods, and each dynasty has greater power than the previous dynasty. As long as the emperor wants to do something, he can

No one can stop it. Something like the Magna Carta is impossible to appear in Chinese history.

"If it hadn't been for the Industrial Revolution in Europe, there is a half chance that the Philippines we just left would have become part of the Qing Dynasty, and it might not have been the Qing Dynasty, or a subsequent dynasty." Sheffield thought for a while and gave his own opinion.

Answer.

The current world is the result of the outbreak in Europe. If all countries regret what opportunities their country has missed, it is impossible to speculate. The biggest source of variables is Europe. It is only possible to deduce that Europe remains as it is.

Don't expect emperors who are both civil and military. In fact, emperors like Sui Yang, Tang Xuanzong, and Qianlong are very rare in Chinese history. Qianlong once thought about annexing Burma, but failed. The British invaded Burma.

With the power of nine cows and two tigers, if Europe, the source of the outbreak, did not explode, the civilizations in various regions would not be impacted, and they would still be the overlords of the region. If such uneasy emperors appeared, expansion would likely occur.

But we must regard the opposition of civil servants as farts. In fact, Qianlong, who was the closest in time, always regarded the objections of civil servants as farts. What should be avoided is to be too keen on expansion and not to cause internal injuries to the country. Among emperors who like to fight, it is best to say

Better than Qianlong's end, perhaps only Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty escaped unscathed, thanks to his descendant Zhaoxuan for saving the situation.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty both seemed to be on top when they were expanding. One lost the whole world, and the other lost half the world.

"What would happen if the Philippines were part of China?" Anne listened to her man's dream with great interest, and she was also intrigued and asked.

"What if it was an emperor like Qianlong? There might be no natives in the Philippines." Sheffield was a little unsure when he thought of Qianlong's killing spree in wiping out Zhungeer. Of course, it was all for the sake of the motherland in later generations' textbooks.

Unification, and a lot of harmony, gave people the impression that Qianlong did nothing but pick up girls.

While Sheffield was still drifting in the Pacific, the United Company organization left in Manila continued to fulfill the boss's instructions and win over interim President Aguinaldo, who looked like a Filipino traitor since he was a child.

On the surface, the reinforced American Expeditionary Force continues to attack the city, but secretly, it threatens and induces Aguinaldo. There are many ways of inducement. According to Sheffield's plan, it is to constantly remind Aguinaldo of his class attributes.

Once the war lasts too long and the number of Filipino resisters increases, it will also be detrimental to a leader like Aguinaldo who comes from a wealthy background.

Anyway, you, Aguinaldo, surrendered to the Spaniards once and took the pesos to live in an apartment overseas. Now the Americans are far more powerful than the Filipinos. Surrendering to the Americans once is nothing. Isn’t the dollar good?

He showed an attitude that resistance would never end well, and at the same time focused on Aguinaldo's class weakness, hoping to cause the rebellious Philippine Front to split. Sheffield was also somewhat unfamiliar with this person, and did not know Aguinaldo's subsequent role in history.

He also surrendered to the Japanese. If he knew that this man had surrendered to colonists of different nationalities three times, he might be more confident.

With the intensification of efforts to induce surrender, the Philippine revolutionary government again experienced a confrontation between the main war faction and the surrender faction. Aguinaldo behaved very weakly in this regard, often siding with the capitulation faction at critical moments. He supported Bart, the surrender faction.

Nuno and Buencamino usurped the positions of Cabinet Chairman and Foreign Minister respectively, and the leaders of the war faction were ostracized or killed.

When she arrived in Sheffield, Los Angeles, she learned about the wireless telegram from Manila. She smiled slightly. This kind of little bourgeoisie never disappoints. If there are weaknesses in capitalism, it is all in this kind of people.

Internal strife broke out in the Philippine rebel camp, and the decision-making power once again returned to the hands of the expeditionary force. Sheffield liked the feeling of having everything under control! What is the saying? I felt relieved when I saw such a rogue motherland.

Although the United States is still unable to show off as a gangster in front of European powers such as Britain and Germany, hasn't it already found a bit of the American Century in Spain?

Sheffield also brought back a Japanese girl, Kiko Sato, daughter of Sukeo Sato. When he passed by Hawaii, he met a new business star who had recently appeared in the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and exchanged opinions with Sanford Dole.

Later, I learned that this new business star must be inextricably linked to the Japanese Imperial Government.

From this point of view, Sato Sukeo should also be serving Japan, but there was no evidence before killing him. Now that a replacement has appeared, it proves that the previous speculation is correct. A new business star has emerged to replace Sato Suke.

Male.

After making this judgment, Sheffield and Sanford Dole helped Minako Sato stabilize her position. However, as for the new spokesperson, the two decided to wait and see and not take strong action. The Japanese population in the Hawaiian Islands is so large,

If we really take tough action, on the one hand, it may make the Japanese Imperial Government alert and cautious, and the people who may be lurking next time will be even more secretive.

The death of Sato Sukeo is more like an accident. If the new spokesperson dies again, even if the Japanese are stupid, they will still feel that something is wrong. After adopting a control strategy, Sheffield brought Sato Sukeo's daughter to the

In the United States, before leaving, he repeatedly assured Minako Sato that he was only leaving behind necessary back-ups and was definitely not coveting her daughter's body. Only by coming to the United States could both parties better build trust.

However, this kind of guarantee could not wash away her criminal record. Minako Sato did not believe Sheffield, a white-skinned beast, so she had no choice but to make him submit obediently with some threats.

"Let her go to school in Austin, I can watch it for you!" Annie smelled something unusual from this matter. Her man seemed to have some thoughts about the widow and her daughter, and she had to take precautions as soon as possible.

She didn't trust the people in this family in this regard. Anne had heard about the old man's life in Paris. There was no guarantee that her William would be able to control it.

"You don't believe me?" Sheffield looked at Anne in disbelief with a hurt expression.

"I believed it before, but now I don't believe it." Annie wrinkled her nose, "I heard that many soldiers in the expeditionary force have an inexplicable affection for Asians. This is what you told me."

"But I'm not that kind of person. I work hard and bear a heavy burden for this company and your life. My dear, you disappoint me!" Sheffield complained in despair, "You should have the most basic respect for me.

trust."

"Every time you need me to cooperate with you and risk pregnancy, why don't you trust you?" Annie snorted, tilted her head and asked in confusion, "Why isn't your secretary named Evelin? Where did she go?
