Before Sheffield could take action, he received a call from his wife from Arlington. The matter was not particularly urgent. It was about Haiti. There was a famine in Haiti and they needed some food assistance.

Sheffield naturally agreed immediately and just went to the United Grain Company to do it. Louisa Morgan's eyes lit up, she didn't realize that the slave owner actually had such a side.

"It's just to test the power of food weapons first. Food will become more useful during the war. Now it's all a preliminary test." Sheffield caressed Louisa Morgan's hair lovingly and said proudly.

, "We will know next year how effective it will be, and see how capable a country is in overcoming famine."

Louisa Morgan was a little confused about what the relationship between food aid and famine was. Sheffield explained the rationale. Simply put, under free trade, it is based on a winner-take-all basis.

First use low-cost grain to overwhelm the agricultural production of the host country. When the cost of growing grain in a country exceeds the cost of importing, people will choose to buy grain instead of growing grain. In fact, this is dumping in the agricultural field.

Sheffield is planning to start a one-year dumping period this time so that Haitians will no longer be able to grow food during the busy farming season. Once they know that Haitians have no food, they will cut off dumping channels to see how capable countries like Haiti are.

Survive the famine.

"A lot of people will die like this. Is this what you call an experiment?" Louisa Morgan was deeply shocked. She thought Sheffield just wanted some profits, but she didn't expect that Sheffield wanted to starve him to death.

"How much can food be sold for? Do I need that little money? What I need is people's respect for me." Sheffield said with a cold smile, "How big of a food gap will there be in a chaotic country? I need a

The exact number. I can’t say it’s about the same, just words like this. As you know, we Dixie people don’t like immigrants, and there are a lot of stowaways on the southern coastline. Instead of intercepting them, it’s better to find ways to weaken the source.”

Now that the whole country of Haiti is under the control of the United States, it is basically undefended and very much in line with the conditions for free trade. There is no freer trade than this.

Sheffield has always been a slave owner with extremely crooked views. Let alone a small Haiti, he has no sense of guilt in doing this to any country. He just wants to try it with Haiti first.

"Don't worry, I'm a small country under my nose. I can do whatever I want. No country will help them to uphold justice." Sheffield comforted Louisa Morgan. Haiti is a tropical country, and maybe it can eat bananas next year.

After a famine, many people may not necessarily die.

Sheffield actually really wanted to do this to a place with a food shortage, but unfortunately these colonies all had owners.

This was a statistical experiment conducted before the World War. Once the World War broke out, a large number of men were drafted and went to the front lines. At the beginning of the 20th century, when individual labor was still the mainstay, women could not handle the intensity of the free labor.

Is Germany strong enough? In addition to the inability to adjust in the first year of the war, in the later stages of the war, famine reappeared in Germany due to labor shortage.

As for domestically, Sheffield has already implemented mechanized agriculture, so this problem will not arise. Therefore, the domestic plan is a capitalist division of labor with United States characteristics. Farmers in the South and Midwest will make good use of the machinery at their hands to take over the Yankee territory.

Farmers on the market have a backlog, forcing these people not to make money.

Sheffield is such a fair person. When considering problems, he always pays attention to fairness. God is nothing more than that.

Now that business was mentioned again, Louisa Morgan told Sheffield that she wanted to invest in Imperial Russia. In his opinion, the market development potential of the Russian Empire was huge and could not be fully occupied by the French.

"Don't go!" Sheffield looked confused. Louisa Morgan still wanted to invest in Imperial Russia? Want to be like the French and have all their property confiscated by the Soviets?

"Why?" Louisa Morgan said with some dissatisfaction. Why is it that a market as big as the Emperor's is just looking at it in vain? Why should there be money but not profit? She would not nod if the slave owner did not give a reasonable explanation.

"That is our enemy! If there is any country in the world that can pose a lasting threat to the United States, it is the Russian Empire." Sheffield, possessed of patriotism, severely criticized Louisa Morgan.

, and then the conversation changed, "The French have been operating in Imperial Russia for so many years. They have been there for a short time and it has no effect. There is only input but no output. If it is really a good opportunity, why wouldn't I help you."

In the eyes of Sheffield, the Russian Empire must be a long-term enemy of the United States. If there is any country in the world that can compete with the Five Eyes Alliance in basic terms, the Russian Empire, which leads the entire Slavic nation, is the most likely opponent!

As for the other candidates, the slave owners are actually not too afraid. Except for the entire Slavs, every other ethnic group has obvious weaknesses. But even the Slavs have a total population similar to that of the Five Eyes Alliance, and they occupy about the same amount of land.

.Completely the same level opponent.

The Cold War decades later also showed this. If Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union had not been at odds with each other, and if Serbia and Imperial Russia had such a good relationship like it was at the beginning of the twentieth century, Yugoslavia would definitely be a member of the Warsaw Pact group.

If this is the case, the posture of NATO and the Warsaw Pact is not that NATO member states surround the Warsaw Pact member states, but that the Warsaw Pact group cuts off the entire NATO from the middle, and Greece, Turkey, and Western Europe will be divided into two different parts. Yugoslavia is in

Neutrality during the Cold War was the luck of the entire NATO group.

Louisa Morgan still wants to invest in the Russian Empire? Isn’t this capitalizing on the enemy? Besides, the investment at this time will definitely lose everything.

Now that Louisa Morgan is running Morgan Stanley, it hasn't produced much results yet. How about going bankrupt first to boost the excitement?

"Listen to me and never use money as firewood." Sheffield warned solemnly, asking Louisa Morgan not to turn a deaf ear to her words.

How to deal with the Mellon family, in fact, the simplest way is to start with the collusion between officials and businessmen. Andrew Mellon himself has said the essence of the collusion between officials and businessmen of the Mellon family. But Sheffield cannot do this because he is doing the same thing as the Mellon family.

.

If the collapse of the DuPont family is replicated and the same tactics are used to deal with the Mellon family, and a too similar scene is staged, then everyone will know that this is a political liquidation.

If political liquidation becomes a tradition, the United States will completely deviate from the development path of South Korea.

The federal government cannot be allowed to investigate the fact that the Mellon family colluded with officials and businessmen. Even if Sheffield knew that this was the fastest way to achieve results, he could only reluctantly give up. It could only go through normal channels.

“Citizens now believe that antitrust laws have been repealed since the Democratic government came to power.” Sheffield contacted the director of the FBI again, Konstantinovich said, “There must be a way.

"

"If you want to cause trouble to anyone, just say so." Konstantinovich has already become initially immune to the slave owner's rhetoric. Sheffield doesn't usually make phone calls. The call must be to ask for the assistance of the FBI.

"It's meaningless for you to talk like this. We have been friends since childhood. Is this the trouble of growing up? How much I miss the days when I was a child. At that time, you especially liked the tall Sharma." Sheffield sighed sadly.

, "I let you ride it despite the objections of others."

"I was almost smashed into pieces by that horse!" Sheffield didn't mention it, but Konstantinovich couldn't help complaining when he mentioned it, "If you say that now, I think you might as well have stopped me then.

.”

"That was an accident. Maybe this is life. Life is full of accidents!" Sheffield changed the subject and said, "I want to merge with Mellon Associates. The Department of Justice is prepared for every trust.

Indictment documents, right? Don’t tell Mellon that Grand Alliance is not a trust?”

After hearing this, Konstantinovich took in a breath of cold air and said a little lost his voice, "Do you know that the Electrolytic Aluminum Group alone has a market value of 1.5 billion US dollars now? You really found it for me.

A good job.”

"One hundred and fifty million dollars? It's not such an unimaginable figure!" Sheffield said calmly, "The number of antitrust lawsuits filed by the Department of Justice is 80% less than during the Roosevelt administration, and there are more influential companies.

There are not many. You can't let citizens' anger be vented on Standard Oil. Edith Rockefeller is your sister-in-law, and neither can Morgan Alliance. First of all, Morgan Alliance is an indirect holding, which is very difficult to investigate, and the same is true for Louisa Morgan.

Your sister-in-law."

"I'll check it out first!" Konstantinovich agreed helplessly after enduring the noise bombardment, "What kind of result do you want?"

"You are talking as if I am the President of the United States!" Sheffield was silent for a moment and said slowly, "Of course the result I expect is the result that the majority of citizens expect, and naturally it is Mellon Associates.

Split it up, especially a valuable industry like aluminum, and put it into the hands of people who better meet expectations."

There is no doubt that the slave owner believes that the person who best meets the expectations of the citizens of the United States is of course himself. Only when it is handed over to him, the king of the emerging industry, will the citizens be satisfied.

"You directly said that you want to annex the Mellon family's aluminum company, and I won't blame you for our relationship." Konstantinovich chuckled, and then said seriously, "I will start investigating immediately, you wait for my news.

That’s it.”

Now Sheffield urgently needed to tell the long-awaited citizens this good news immediately. The newspapers affiliated with the League of Nations began to spread the news and made it public that the Ministry of Justice was preparing to investigate the Mellon family.
