Sheffield didn't take it seriously, putting everything on the election, and acted helplessly because of public opinion. Of course, whether it was true or false, only God knows.

"I believe all directors also understand that the long-term cooperation between the two parties has now reached this point undesirably." Sheffield said apologetically to several directors of Barclays Bank, "No matter what happened, the friendship between the two parties

It will never fade. Sheffield has been cooperating with your bank in its import and export trade with the UK for a long time. If nothing unexpected happens, this cooperation will certainly continue."

"Your family has such a great influence on the Democratic Party, why can't you think of something else?" Mike Downs, one of the directors of Barclays Bank with a beard, said, "To be honest, the British Empire has not faced such a tough situation in the past hundred years.

Was the protest a bluff or was he really prepared to fight us? To be honest, it scared us a bit."

"It's a bluff of being ready for war!" Sheffield thought for a moment and replied, which was close to the facts. "This Secretary of State is a friend of the railroad king. He used to be the Minister of Justice in China. He knows something about international trade. Naturally,

I don’t know about the traditional friendship between us. Of course, this traditional friendship needs to be maintained by both parties, otherwise, this friendship can fall on Barings Bank and the Royal Bank of Scotland.”

The Bank of England is not alone. To be honest, London is a place like Sheffield. You can hit a banker even if you throw a stone at it. London does not lack bankers at all. What it lacks is bankers’ close partners. Several of the things he mentioned

None of the banks were inferior to Barclays, and the tone of such questioning now made him very unhappy.

"That's not what we meant. You are still young. We have been working with Mrs. Anna and even Sheffield for a long time. We had contact in New Orleans. However, such friction will inevitably bring financial risks, so it is reasonable for us to ask more.

Upon hearing Sheffield's dissatisfaction, McDowns calmly spoke up, "Early before the Civil War, your family's cotton funds were settled in our bank. This kind of trust and friendship also takes a long time."

Time builds.”

Sheffield scratched his scalp, as if this was the case, was he too sensitive? Since people were polite, he naturally responded politely, "No one can control this kind of public opinion, but the trade between us

We have to continue. I believe there won’t be any major problems.”

If he hadn't come to Europe, he would have felt that history had been turned upside down. But after coming here, he realized that his grandfather's influence on history was very limited. It was completely like a late emperor who had only half started his business and died in the middle. Not yet.

How to change the world, only to be taken away by a bullet.

How innocent he is now, and he still has to bear possible sanctions. It is obvious that everyone is a member of the imperialist camp.

"Actually, I think as long as we see the election results, no matter whether the Democratic Party wins or loses this time, as long as the election is over, we can naturally talk about Venezuela. Don't hurt the peace." Sheffield said to a group of partners, "Those in the country are

International issues that country bumpkins don't understand, but I believe the subjects of the British Empire understand this very well and can solve this problem more wisely."

Anyway, I first gave the other party a high hat, and by the way expressed my helplessness about the current situation. My family is really a farmer. Apart from Texas, I basically have no influence.

Don't think too highly of yourself. When he came to Europe, he just kneeled down to Britain, France and Germany, hoping to get a patent authorization.

"The next one is Lord Alston, foreign trade officer!" Sheffield put away the list. He was no less busy than the Secretary of State. After landing in London, he visited various contacts directly.

They mainly have connections in the banking and trade fields. Olney is the Secretary of State of the federal government. It is normal for others to come to demonstrate. He is a loyal partner of the British Empire, and it is normal to smooth relations.

The British power class in London is also evaluating the US Secretary of State's aggressive demonstrations. The current Imperial Prime Minister, the Marquis of Salisbury, works in the Foreign Office building opposite No. 10 Downing Street. The Marquis of Salisbury hates it very much.

No. 10 Downing Street, which had been in disrepair for a long time, admired the newly built building very much and found it spacious and grand, unlike No. 10 Downing Street, which was narrow.

"Unlike Olney, the Democratic Party donors who also came to Europe are interacting with people in the banking industry. Judging from this child, many wealthy Americans do not want to fall out with the British Empire." As Prime Minister,

Staff member, Bayardes was in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building opposite No. 10 Downing Street, explaining to Prime Minister the Marquess of Salisbury, "Currently, due to the domestic economic depression, the U.S. federal government may be borrowing the Venezuelan incident to shift the focus.

They are making trouble with us. As for Secretary of State Olney, who has just taken office, he was formerly the Attorney General of the United States. At the beginning of the year, he mobilized half of the U.S. military to suppress the rebellious workers."

It is said that half of the U.S. military has been mobilized, but in fact it is only more than 10,000 people, and the U.S. Army only has 30,000 people.

"This incident caused dozens of casualties, but the economic depression has not eased. According to recent telegrams, food prices in the United States have soared, and the economic depression continues. There is still work to be done. In this case, we have

There is every reason to believe that those country bumpkins were not prepared. What worries me is the reaction of the Germans." Bayardes turned to the public opinion of the German industry on the conflict between the United States and Britain. "The Germans seem to have found a perfect solution.

Opportunities, from the private sector to the government, almost everyone is on the side of the Americans."

"The Americans must have given away a lot of benefits to the Germans!" It took a long time before the Marquis of Salisbury spoke slowly. His trademark beard that reached straight to his chest even made his aide Bayards pay close attention.

Listen, did the Prime Minister really say, "The United States and Germany? Even if they are together, so what? They still cannot challenge our interests. Of course, it is best to solve them one by one."

Salisbury’s extremely smart hairstyle and thick beard that reaches straight to his chest make him look funny, more like a comedian, but when he speaks, he is full of the aura of being invincible in the world. A few years ago

He passed a bill to expand the navy and established a two-power standard for maritime powers.

However, regarding the development of European powers, he still insisted on his consistent thinking. The British Empire did not need allies, and no country was worthy of forming an alliance with the British Empire. He rejected the opposition leader Joseph Chamberlain's proposal to form an alliance with the German Empire.

"The Germans are more annoying!" Salisbury finally expressed his thoughts. "British hatred in the United States is not uncommon. Such remarks will naturally disappear as the storm cools down."
