In addition to welcoming a new family member, Sheffield can feel happy that it is certain that the two battleships at the San Francisco Shipyard will definitely be completed within the year.

Although it is not very profitable, it is not even as much as Anne's expenses in Europe. But it is not a bad thing to test the manufacturing capabilities of its industries before the world war.

"Our navy was formed bit by bit through the hard-working hands of these workers. To be fair, we should be grateful to them!" Sheffield said with emotion while standing on the seaside, looking at the busy shipyard.

The slave owners brought Louisa Morgan and followed the Democratic candidate Wilson who was speaking along the way to the West Coast. Compared with the Republicans, who were now divided into two factions, the Democrats showed unity. In front of the citizens of the Midwest, William Bryan helped

Wilson was familiar with the environment and transferred his political legacy to this new candidate.

The Democratic Party has always been a little more united than the Republican Party. This is normal. The Democratic Party has always been a loser. Losers always have higher internal cohesion. At least after winning once, this unity has not been broken down.

Sheffield's sudden sentimentality made Louisa Morgan a little overwhelmed. This man could be so contradictory at times, and would change into another attitude after a day, which was unpredictable.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you say such things?" Louisa Morgan put her hand on the man's shoulder. Is this another sign of illness?

"My dear, you just met me. It's rare for me to notice my conscience." When Sheffield turned his head, there was no longer any melancholy on his face, and his tone was much calmer, "Sometimes it is like this, I know

Many of the things I am doing are wrong, but they are good for me and I will continue to do them.”

As Sheffield knew, Roosevelt stated that he wanted to dismantle large enterprises and prevent monopolies from putting citizens in a vulnerable position. Sheffield agreed, but he was a business owner, not an ordinary capitalist, but a member of the monopoly capitalist class.

Therefore, it is good for the citizens but not good for Sheffield. He cannot let President Roosevelt come to power now. The slave owners are also stirring up the fuse of the world war. Although he does not dare to do anything to the real powers such as Germany and France, he is still very

Afraid of being caught, Italy did not stop when it came to Austria-Hungary, which already had problems, and made its own contribution to the world war.

Of course, Sheffield knew that tens of millions of people would die, and that every death would be a living person, but not only could he not sit back and watch, he even took the initiative to get involved, hoping to make the two camps more evenly matched.

Normally, the number of deaths would definitely be more, and of course the slave owners knew that this was a tragedy. But if other countries did not fight, the United States would not have a chance to soar. If the large companies of these European powers were not severely damaged by the world war,

The internationalization of joint companies will have many opponents.

Now Sheffield understands a little bit more about the thoughts of the top leaders of the United States a hundred years later. They are not stupid, they are just pretending to be confused and simple assholes.

You know clearly that what you are doing is a very bad thing, but you have to do it without hesitation. This is Sheffield's mentality, and it is also what the elite of the United States will do a hundred years later. So it doesn't matter how many people die, and Sheffield doesn't have to

When he went to the battlefield, he had a certificate of fainting syndrome issued by Arlington Hospital.

Regarding the second Moroccan crisis, it has now entered the actual negotiation stage, and the major European countries involved, as well as their allies, are all playing their roles. From his wife’s latest telegram, there are already discussions in French politics

There has been heightened vigilance over Italy's recent unusual military mobilization, but no warning has been issued yet.

It will be known soon whether Sheffield's act of spreading money in an airship can bring about the results he hopes for.

"I wonder if Belgrade has done its part?" Sheffield put his hands in his pockets and stood facing the sea breeze for a moment. Then he mentally decided on one thing, and he still wanted to take the initiative.

"My dear, go back to New York. I want to inquire about some situations with the Germans." Sheffield held Louisa Morgan's hand, nominally following Wilson out to warm up for the election. In fact, he just came here to relax.

But this purpose was not successful. What happened was not a problem that could be solved by just relaxing. To solve the problem, we had to face up to the difficulties.

The increasingly fierce elections and the mediation negotiations on the second Moroccan crisis may not seem to be very relevant to him as a business owner, but in fact both of them are very important to him.

Sheffield, who has been helping Anne with suggestions in the past two or three months, finally remembered the mission of a senior German fan. Now he is preparing to give the Germans a happy gift.

Airships were invented by the Germans, and United Corporation only obtained patent approval to build these airships for commercial operation in the airspace of the United States. In this regard, United Corporation should be similar to an assembly plant.

Germany attaches great importance to the development of air power. This air power is composed of the Imperial Army Air Service and the Imperial Naval Air Service. They are subordinate to the army and navy respectively and carry out land reconnaissance, intelligence collection and maritime search and rescue missions. However,

, Germany’s focus in expanding its aviation force was not on aircraft, but on Zeppelin airships. They expected to use these huge airships for tactical and strategic reconnaissance. And for a long time, Zeppelin airships did not

Let them down, and also used air strikes against ground targets to amazing effect.

Early airships had obvious advantages over airplanes, but this advantage was extremely easy to break. For example, hydrogen was flammable and explosive. Later, when airships attacked London, they were intercepted by British aircraft using white phosphorus bullets.

This is not impossible to solve. Just replace the hydrogen with safer helium, and you can continue to bomb London without any scruples. The source of the helium industry in the United States is domestic natural gas oil fields. And Germany itself

Without such an environment, and without even the basic conditions, it would be impossible to develop in the synthetic industry.

Just like how a country without coal resources can manufacture a steam engine? If you don't believe it, look at South America. South America is a continent without high-quality coal.

The extraction and purification of helium is where United Chemical leads the Germans. Sheffield met with the branch managers of Bayer in New York and took the initiative to propose the idea of ​​helping the Germans establish a helium purification industry.

Slave owners have never been so conscientious when negotiating with people at home, but it is different now, they are Germans.

"During the commercial operation of the airship, my managers discovered one of the major flaws, which is that the hydrogen airship is too unsafe." Looking at the busy Fifth Avenue below, Sheffield said righteously, "About

The transatlantic air transportation envisaged by United Corporation and Zeppelin Company would be extremely prone to accidents if hydrogen airships were used over such a long journey and in the face of complex weather."

"The cooperation between United Company and Zeppelin Airship Company must replace unsafe hydrogen with safe helium. This is a fact that must be done. After a long period of communication, our two companies have determined a replacement hydrogen airship

plan, and with you, Bayer, our long-time partner of the United Company, our cooperation has always been very harmonious, and the establishment of a factory for the helium industry in Germany cannot be separated from your help."

The slave owner knew that it was better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, so he could not wait for the war to come. He traveled thousands of miles to send the helium, and it was too late. Once the airship bombed London, the British Royal Navy would sit back and watch in Sheffield and send the airship's

Important filling gas delivered to German hands?

So at least when it comes to helium, slave owners should not even think about doing business on both sides. They might as well be more generous and help Germany build a helium extraction factory and help the Germans build self-sufficiency.

The slave owners did not need the gratitude of the Germans. Just put the gratitude on the aerial bombs and conduct two more air raids over London. As the head of the New York branch, Augusto was of course very happy.

For him, it was already a common occurrence. Previously, Sheffield's airship landed at Rockefeller Manor, causing a sensation among New Yorkers.

Now it seems that the king of emerging industries in the United States is serious about aviation. If major cities have airship routes, this will be a big market, not to mention the envisaged transatlantic routes.

This is also a very good thing for Bayer. It can even be said that Sheffield is worthy of being a conscientious capitalist.

"If there are no objections, the contract will be signed and we will find a place to build the factory in the Ruhr area." Sheffield was completely business-like and did not seem to think that the helium factory was very important.

From a certain perspective, there is not even a shadow of the World War, and slave owners have already begun to do business on both sides. But they are still doing it in a very measured way. The strengthening of the Allies is mainly concentrated on the Germans. As for the Allies, strengthening can be done.

It was slightly delayed because the Allies were stronger.

And we also have to look at the direction of this Moroccan crisis. Germany and France have launched two months of negotiations around the second Moroccan crisis. From the initial tense situation to the current routine, if it continues like this, it will

There will be a peaceful ending, but you are afraid of something unexpected happening.
Chapter completed!
