"I'm fine. I eat well and sleep well. There's nothing wrong with me." Sheffield held the microphone and listened to McHale's greetings in New Orleans, nodding continuously. "Still the old rules, pass through Louisiana first."

The housing laws then caused southern states to follow suit. The black community had no property and would definitely not be able to pay the rent. We would create a vicious cycle in the South and keep them on their knees forever. Of course, it would inevitably hurt some Dixie people, but

For the overall interests of the entire South, a little sacrifice is inevitable."

"Gale and I will be concerned about this matter. The state laws here are still very reliable, but about the Panama Canal? Some shareholders are still worried!" McHale paused and hesitated, "The problem is very serious.

Is it big?"

"Worried that their investment will be ruined? I can completely understand this worry, but this accident will not put the United Company at risk of bankruptcy. The current situation in other industries is very good, so let them keep it in mind."

Sheffield's body felt cold and he couldn't help but roll his eyes. He couldn't continue with this familiar feeling.

I put down the phone and skillfully took off my son's trousers, and gestured with William Rockefeller's immature buttocks with my palms, but it still wasn't long enough to be used as a stick to create a filial son. This is really a pity.

"William, huh?" Edith Rockefeller pushed open the door and saw a strange sight in front of her. Two men of very different ages were naked buttocks. Although the two men were very close to her, how did she feel?

So strange.

"Um what? My son peed. I am innocent. Please bring me a pair of trousers." Sheffield pointed to the crime scene with a grimace, not wanting to cool his bottom in such a wind.

The corners of Edith Rockefeller's lips curled up nicely, and she turned around to find a change of trousers and packed them up with Sheffield. After finishing her work, she got down to business and said softly, "The news from Washington, President Roosevelt's response to the Panama Canal

We are very concerned about this issue. It involves the lives of tens of thousands of citizens. It has been identified as a major accident. There is news that you are asked to go to Washington to accept congressional questioning. What should you do?"

"What should I do? It's okay to go there. I haven't been to Congress yet. Morgan can go to the White House. It doesn't matter if I go to Congress." Sheffield stretched out his hand to lick the soles of William Rockefeller's feet, as if he was not having fun.

Very happy.

"When such a big thing happens, the people who rely on you show no sign at all. It's too shameful." Edith Rockefeller complained instead, "You are not needed at the critical moment."

"You can't say that. I just finished the call. Their connections are my connections. They overlap too much. It's normal that they can't help. Besides, they have their own things to be busy with. They can't let anything happen to the canal and put down other industries.

Are you there?" Sheffield comforted Edith Rockefeller. This is just like there are many women and there are many beauties, but there are not many women from Edith Rockefeller's family background. This is the truth.

The Louisiana housing law is also a very important matter. This housing law is stuck at an income point that the black community cannot reach. It also stipulates that the community has the right to evict poor people. Landlords of house ownership can wait until the tenant delays for five years.

After days of rent, the tenant will be evicted. If the tenant does not leave within a week, the police department has the right to carry guns and take coercive measures.

If the tenant cannot take away the luggage by himself and has to pay the public department to carry the luggage, it will make people fall into an endless cycle: being evicted by the landlord because he cannot pay the rent, even if you make enough money later, you will not be able to pay the rent.

There are very few landlords willing to rent a house to you. If you don't want to become homeless, you have to find a rogue landlord or stay in a motel, which increases your accommodation expenses.

In fact, the new housing law is not aimed at the black community, but at the working class with jobs and income. The trigger point of the bill is that black people generally cannot reach such income, so black people should not oppose this bill, because this bill

Among them, black people are not treated as human beings at all.

"When I finish this matter, I will discuss with Rockefeller Jr. and pass a medical bill to protect the rights of your industry. Today's doctors are too irregular. There are also some beverage companies who claim to cure all diseases."

The pretense is deceiving, and order should be straightened out." Compared with Edith Rockefeller's gloomy look, Sheffield's state was obviously a little too good, showing the qualities that a good slave owner should have.

Before leaving for Washington, Sheffield had some communication with the German company Bayer before making a public statement to accept congressional inquiries. It is almost certain that the disease will appear after the flood. At this time, Bayer, which has strong technical reserves in the chemical field, is needed.

The company helped, and Sheffield repeatedly assured that although this matter was big, it would not bankrupt the joint company and would not delay the multi-field cooperation between the two parties.

"Someone will definitely take this opportunity to criticize you!" Edith Rockefeller came to say goodbye at the Chicago train station and muttered, "These so-called congressmen are all bastards."

"It doesn't matter, I'm already prepared in my heart." Sheffield raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, "Sometimes, if one person makes too much of a mistake, the country will help you cover it up."

The Congress in Washington is indeed ready to launch an attack. There are not many times throughout the year when they can exercise their power. It is even rarer to launch an attack on such a large company. Many people are ready to ask for help from the people.

, at this time, black lives matter.

After getting off the train, there were countless cars parked outside, nearly a hundred of them. Employees wearing black gold company suits and armbands were waiting for their bosses to appear. The scene was jaw-dropping. Even the civil servants in Washington were waiting for their bosses to show up.

Here, too, people were surprised by the spectacle in Sheffield. As a huge motorcade set off for Capitol Hill, news of the arrival of the United Company bosses under questioning in Washington also spread.

"This inquiry should be organized by the president. You are waiting outside the cordon." Sheffield got off the car and saw the building of the Congress. It has a strong ancient Roman style and is worthy of being the heart of the modern Roman Empire.

However, the slave owner felt a little tired. Why did he feel like Caesar was assassinated? You only need to come to this place once, and you should come less often in the future. Security personnel from the Congress had already come out. They took a look at the black and gold weapons in front of them and nodded in front.

Lead the way and lead famous entrepreneurs into Congress to accept questions.

Normally, this kind of order is presided over by the vice president acting as speaker. However, it has been special in recent years. Roosevelt himself was the vice president and should do this kind of work. After the original president William McKinley was assassinated, Roosevelt became a regular, but the vice president

The president has no spare tire, so the position of vice president has been vacant in recent years, and Roosevelt is still responsible for presiding over Congress. In a sense, Roosevelt can now be said to be both president and speaker.

Sheffield calmly sat down where the leader pointed, without any stage fright, and looked at the environment inside the Congress to see what was going on inside the heart of the modern Roman Empire.

This indifferent attitude made many members look at each other. Everyone in this joint company seemed not nervous at all.

"As for the Panama Canal project operated by the United Company, which caused heavy casualties due to the collapse of the dam, I wonder what Mr. William would like to say?" A congressman first raised a question, and Sheffield glanced at the other side's camp.

The Democratic Party camp was well aware of this. They coughed softly and said, "First of all, it is a fact that there were heavy casualties due to the dam collapse. There is nothing to hide."

"So for the deaths of tens of thousands of American citizens, what kind of responsibility does Mr. William think United Company should bear?" Soon another congressman followed this question and began to make sharp accusations.

Sheffield looked at the other party deeply, then withdrew his gaze, raised his head slightly and replied indifferently, "As for the collapse of the dam, according to the promise made to me by the local person in charge, the dam is extremely strong and will not collapse without reason. If

If this condition is established and I have not been deceived, then my answer to this question is that neither the United Company nor its subsidiary American Canal Management Company should bear any responsibility for this."

"In this accident, United Company was also a victim. Although United Company is a powerful company to be modest, no one can bear the losses caused by this incident more than United Company."

You deserve to be a victim! As for other questions, I can’t give you an answer until the investigation results come out.”

"In other words, as the owner of United Company, Mr. William thinks that his company does not have even the slightest responsibility in the face of such a large number of deaths?" Following this question, there was some noise in the venue. Apparently many people were worried.

In whispering discussions.

"Dear Mr. Congressman!" Sheffield knocked on the table and retorted without any sign of weakness, "This is an era of evidence. Congressmen in a country governed by the rule of law should have a clear understanding of this. Rather than being motivated by certain

Personal emotions have turned a serious place like the Congress into a stage for canvassing votes. This is not your personal rally."

"As to why the Gatun Lake Dam collapsed, we must wait for the investigation results to be released before we can make a decision. What I came here to accept is a question. As a citizen, I have this obligation, but I am not here to accept a trial. I hope that every order will
Chapter completed!
