Chapter 29 The Yankee Thief
Sheffield naturally had this person in his impression of the so-called father, but it was just this person. Since Lafayette said so, Sheffield would naturally accept the offer, but he didn't feel that there would be any surprise in his heart. God
Even if you are a genius, you deliberately pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. That is just literary processing.
With Annabell's family tradition, if the so-called father is really capable, Lafayette would like to let the entire United States know about it the next day, and can he still talk about him in the first place?
"Obviously my family sells a lot of Eastern European Slavs, but Tesla can be missed?" Since we are preparing to use the patent stick, European patent authorization is naturally very important, but we must also tap into the internal potential.
Tesla had been in the United States for ten years and had been naturalized for five or six years. To be fair, Tesla had just won the alternating current war against Edison and was officially famous.
And Sheffield knew that although Tesla had thousands of patents in hand, its economic conditions were not good. On the contrary, in the face of Edison's suppression, it took a lot of off-market moves.
At least Tesla's talents should not be inferior to Edison's. Is there anything different? How many people in the entire United States can compete with Morgan?
After all, the entire United States can now give an Orthodox Slavic person a sense of home. Sheffield believes that there will be no other place besides Texas. The omission is not irreversible.
"I will make arrangements for Tesla, but Master, Madam is arranging your itinerary. You can board the ship with the others then." Padella came slowly and said with her usual gentle smile.
.
"First investigate Tesla's personality, beliefs and living habits and a series of factors. You can contact him, but it is only for official business. The rest of the things will be planned when I come back." Sheffield nodded and said, "Let me know the departure time when the time comes.
I will follow all my grandmother's arrangements."
Soon, Sheffield knew what was going on. It was impossible for the top businessmen in the United States not to be involved in politics. This could be regarded as the tradition of the United States. Lafayette's operation could be regarded as closely following current events and originated from the Venezuelan crisis.
In today's United States, there are both those who firmly believe in the American Century and those who deeply admire Europe. The newly appointed Secretary of State is considered the latter. Last month, President Cleveland proposed to promote the hard-line Olney as the new Secretary of State. O'Neill firmly believes that "U.S.
Century has arrived, and the United States must actively expand outward.
The Secretary of State is now waiting to board the ship at the New York port. His purpose is naturally to go to Europe to explain the meaning of the United States. Simply put, it is diplomatic work. Diplomatic work must not be as straightforward as military work, adhering to the principle that you lose and I win.
If you have this idea, based on the current comparison of strength between the United States and the British Empire, the country that will be beaten to a bloody head must be the United States.
Looking at the chimney of this ship named San Marino, Sheffield doesn't feel very good now. Because he is surrounded by at least fifty strong men. The current attire of these black gold employees,
At that time, it was out of the category of western cowboys. He was wearing a suit and sunglasses. The man on the left and right, Sheffield, rolled his eyes and had to reach out to lower the brim of his hat. Even so, the top hat he was wearing was still very conspicuous.
In name, Sheffield is an inconspicuous accompanying member of the United States Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Association. Of course, its external purpose is to conduct an annual inspection of the European agricultural and animal husbandry market, and go through the motions to deepen the relationship between the two parties. After all, the important purpose of exporting agricultural and animal husbandry products in the United States is
The land is Europe. To exaggerate, many Europeans rely on American grains to feed themselves.
The Dixies in the South have a much more international outlook than the Yankees. After all, northern industrial products cannot be sold to Europe. If it were not for the support of tariffs, even their own residents would not be willing to buy them.
Naturally, he mainly works for his family. As for the position of the United States, the Secretary of State's American Century. This is of course also very important, but it is not as important as his own family's affairs.
"If I didn't have time, I would really like to go to Wall Street." The ship started. Sheffield looked at New York getting smaller and smaller, and felt deeply regretful. At worst, he would come back to see it again, and it's not like he couldn't see it anymore. He turned around and went back.
Arriving at the cabin, his long days of wandering at sea have just begun.
Wow! After tossing and turning, Sheffield deeply understood the meaning of relying on the helmsman when sailing on the sea. As the first time he went to sea, it was not surprising that he was a little uncomfortable. Maybe the sea god told him in the dark that he had to pay more.
importance.
Immediately, the waiter from the passenger ship came in. As a top-class passenger ship in 1895, the waiter on this ship also expressed his professionalism and did not mean any impatience. It would be better if he did not accept tips.
"Tipping is a cancer to the United States!" Sheffield wiped his mouth. He really didn't want to continue to adapt to the ocean in the cabin, so he stood up and prepared to find a larger space, where he could just enjoy the sea breeze and maybe recite a poem.
As a top-class passenger ship of this era, it naturally has a spacious hall for people to dance, but it is a sport for British gentlemen. Unfortunately, almost all the passengers on the passenger ship sailing from New York are citizens of the United States. A few mixed-race looks
Men and women danced Latin dance among them, twisting their graceful postures and expressing their youth to the music.
This disappointed Sheffield, but the large number of people in the hall showed that it was not the people of the United States who were wrong, he was the one who was out of place.
"It's Connor and the others!" the black gold employee behind him pointed to a corner more than 20 meters away. That location was closer to the Latin dancers. Sheffield glanced at it and nodded, "I know, don't disturb them.
.”
Followed by several staff members, Sheffield found a seat and sat down. His eyes were immediately attracted by the wine on display. He thought to himself, is it because I am drunk that the boring journey will be less?
Just as he was about to take action, a series of sounds of objects being thrown reached his ears. He turned around and saw a group of people named John Connor, the savior of the same name. They were posing eagerly, as if they were preparing to have a fighting match with each other.
"What a coincidence?" Sheffield stood up impatiently and walked towards the confrontation between the two groups. Naturally, the black gold employees behind him did not dare to neglect, and stood up one after another, with their hands already in their pockets in preparation for emergency response.
Within a short distance of twenty meters, the conversation was about to progress from talking to taking action, until the Sheffield group joined in. As soon as John Connor saw the person, he came to his senses and remained silent.
After hearing the other person's two words, Sheffield grinned and said, "Even if we are two hundred miles away, I can smell the stench of the Yankee thief. What's going on?" When he asked the last sentence, his eyes were already there.
Chapter completed!
