Chapter 444 Speculators' new project
All the battleships are divided into two squadrons, the first and the second, respectively assigned to two squadrons. The first squadron of the first squadron is the latest Connecticut-class battleship, the flagship of the fleet, squadron and squadron is the "Connecticut", and the rest
It's the USS Kansas, the USS Vermont, the USS Louisiana.
The Second Squadron of the First Squadron is composed of four Virginia-class battleships commanded by Rear Admiral Emery, namely the squadron flagship "Georgia", "New Jersey", "Rhode Island" and "Virginia". The second point
The Third Squadron of the Fleet is commanded by Rear Admiral Thomas. The flagship of the squadron and squadron is the Connecticut-class battleship "Minnesota", and the remaining three ships are the Maine-class battleships "Maine", "Missouri" and "Ohio"
Number.
In this feast of the BB Party and the carnival of the multi-turret cult, Sheffield, as a senior BB Party member, could only temporarily ignore the towering chimneys of these battleships, and maliciously thought that he might need to touch up the paint when he arrived in San Francisco.
, it’s time to stock up on some white paint. The slave owner never dreamed that one day he would work part-time as a paper poster and compete with Li Zhongtang for food.
Newspapers across the country are reporting on the scene of the Great White Fleet officially setting sail, using extremely exaggerated words, fully mobilizing the patriotic sentiments of the citizens of the United States. The Navy! has never received the attention of so many citizens as it does today.
"Why do I feel like this midterm election has been ruined again!" Sheffield sighed. Now he can only hope that history will develop as it does. Of course, it will be an economic crisis, and the white supremacy package will be quickly added. There are also historical doubts, the Republican Party has changed its candidates.
It became a reality for people to choose someone else to run in Roosevelt's place.
Considering Roosevelt's precedent of launching antitrust laws to dismantle large enterprises, as well as so much support, the current presidential re-election is only an unspoken rule, and Roosevelt can continue to run. Therefore, the four years without election in the middle are very suspicious.
It was definitely not Gao Fengliangjie who quit on his own initiative, otherwise Roosevelt would not have been elected again after four years. Moreover, judging from Franklin Roosevelt's subsequent four re-election experiences, the Roosevelt family is a political family with a strong desire for power. Gao Fengliangjie must have wanted to do this.
Much more.
Either they were threatened, or they were killed by the faction of the Republican Party that advocated harmony with big business. Starting from Sheffield formulating the white supremacy election strategy for Alton Parker, the development of the Democratic and Republican parties went even further off track. Alton Parker
I belong to the conservative wing of the Democratic Party, while William Bryan is the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. The progressive wing within the Republican Party is Roosevelt. If we look at the division a hundred years from now, it will be the white left versus the extreme right.
But even so, there are still people who come out to cause trouble. Although everyone is xenophobic, the xenophobia in the South and the Great West are different. When most media are immersed in the glory of the Great White Fleet, the civil war of Social Darwinism has also begun, Harry Bogut
In the stronghold of Southern public opinion, the New Orleans Morning News began a battle for the right to interpret the story of the survival of the fittest.
The public opinion of Jack London after the Russo-Japanese War was transformed into internal issues. At first it was admitted that Jack London's concerns were reasonable, but then it suddenly took a turn for the worse, and it was believed that white supremacy was not aimed at a certain race, but all non-white people. At present,
In the United States, it is obvious that black people have a bigger problem, and it quickly caused many newspapers to reprint it.
Alice Roosevelt came back from the outside and happened to see Sheffield holding the newspaper and reading it with interest. When he saw the title, he looked like I knew it. It was the Dixie people in the South attacking black people again. She sat down directly.
The spring sofa was pressed down and the spring inside made an overwhelming sound.
Sheffield tilted his head and glanced at Alice Roosevelt's butt, accurately receiving the signal that the sofa was overwhelmed, and then continued reading the newspaper.
"You Southern Democrats are so interesting. If you don't like black people, why did you engage in human trade in the first place, and now you say weird things to the people you sold? Don't you think it's shameless?" Alice Roosevelt's words were somewhat sarcastic, but it wasn't
To Sheffield, but part of her mouth Dixie people.
It’s just that he didn’t know that some of the Dixie people she talked about, the leader of this group was right in front of him. Sheffield put down the newspaper and said, "Shameless is really shameless. Human trafficking was done for money. Didn't you also say that?
It was a mistake, and now we Dixie people are correcting it. It's all about money, and there's no shame in it."
"If that's the case, you are too greedy." Alice Roosevelt laughed angrily, but Sheffield was too honest. "If you can make money by killing people, why don't you do it too?"
"It depends on how much you pay!" Sheffield said honestly. Gale's project in Puerto Rico was to provide Latin American dignitaries with a business to vent their dark side. But seeing Alice Roosevelt's face turn cloudy, the conversation changed.
, "But I won't do it. I have something I like more than money."
The slave owner continued his conversation, telling the president's daughter that he preferred power to money, which was a little inappropriate.
"Our family is a family friend of Senator Martin Luther King, Jr., who is a widely respected congressman in Texas!" Seeing Alice Roosevelt's suspicion lessened, the slave owner increased his stakes again, but also disappeared.
The reason why Congressman Martin Luther King is respected is because he is the black steward of the Sheffield family.
Of course, this is not important. Sheffield can even come forward to testify in person. This respected congressman has relied entirely on his own ability and charm to win the unanimous love of Texas citizens. He was once the mayor and now his son
The people in the district under the mayor's jurisdiction have orderly lives and can serve as a model for black communities in the United States.
"I don't think you are that kind of person either!" Hearing Alice Roosevelt's affirmative words, Sheffield understood that the deception was successful.
The word greedy is a hurtful word to describe the Dixie people. They are just purely xenophobic. This word is more suitable for New York at present, but since Alice Roosevelt is a New Yorker, Sheffield will not say it.
The headquarters of the Knickerbocker Trust Company faces the majestic Fifth Avenue. The streets under the Collins Stone Column are bustling with people. Well-dressed elites welcome the new day with heartfelt arrogance.
From its establishment ten years ago with less than ten million US dollars in cash, it has become a giant trust company with a cash flow of sixty million, not counting the countless bank shares it holds. As one of the three largest banks in the United States,
One of the trust giants, every move of the Knickerbocker Trust Company is a benchmark.
"Gentlemen, our life has never been as comfortable as it is today." Mike, the chairman of the board of directors, with his unique calmness, asked people to issue their own projects, and continued, "The news from Washington, I believe everyone also
I know, after the mid-term elections, administrative districts will be established in New Mexico. You may not know about it. The local copper mine output is more than 60% of the United States. The current hot market and the reconstruction of San Francisco all show that the demand for many metals
Demand will continue to increase, and this is our opportunity to show off our capabilities.”
"Everyone knows that the copper mines in the United States are currently controlled by the Sheffield family, because the main producing areas of copper mines are in Texas and New Mexico. We cannot intervene in the Texas copper mines, but the New Mexico region is a very developing area.
There are places where we can intervene.”
"But the difficulties we face are still the same. The local minerals are also controlled by the Sheffield family." A director said with some doubts, "Since we can't intervene in the copper mines in Texas, New Mexico can intervene?"
"Blair, this is different. A new administrative district has just been established, and all speculators are paying attention to companies like our trust companies and joint companies. The difference is that we lead the direction of investment. If we can make
People believe that this is a new investment hotspot and people are flocking to it. Can the Sheffield family stop individual companies and individual investors? Just like after the gold rush, can anyone stop countless gold diggers?
?No one can stop it!" Mike refuted the opinion of a director without caring, and at the same time said to other directors, "The current economic situation is so good, and the stock market is unprecedentedly prosperous. We can generate huge cash flow and follow the trend.
Wouldn't it be true that the enemy would destroy all efforts to resist?"
"Copper mining will be the next profit point for our trust company." Mike said while wagging his finger, "Our copper mining company will be called United Copper Mining Company, and then it will support the stock."
"This will definitely make the boss of United Company very angry!" The conference room was filled with laughter.
"Did he also patent the word joint?" Another voice teased, "This is all normal business. Of course, it's normal that Sheffield doesn't understand such advanced skills."
Director Blair, who had just started speaking, frowned slightly. Looking at the optimistic directors, he made the most correct decision in his life, "Gentlemen, I think this project is too risky and I want to withdraw."
"Blair, you are too cowardly!" After a period of trying to retain him to no avail, the other directors could only regretfully take over all of Brian's shares so that they could make more money.
Chapter completed!
