Chapter 63 The changing situation at sea
These plantation owners who have just left Brazil or are preparing to leave may not necessarily sell their plantations directly. Just like they left the United States before, not all of them have cut off their ties with the United States. But one thing is for sure.
Yes, they all have massive funds in their hands, which may not be US dollars, but may also be other hard currencies.
To be honest, among the raw materials that support industry, there are very few countries in the world that can match the resources of the United States. Let alone Brazil, but this does not mean that these countries do not have their own uniqueness. You must know that as the first wave of colonization
First, Spain first landed in America and occupied the best places. The thirteen states of the United States at the beginning could only really cultivate land.
The places colonized by the two teeth all had either gold mines or silver mines. Although later facts proved that the gold and silver mines were not enough for steel and coal, but money means money. They have been working hard in Brazil for many years.
If you say you have no money, no one will believe you. If you don’t have money, it’s nonsense. Sheffield is so busy. If you have this time, why not explore the land on the west coast?
Sure enough, the returnees had no objections to Sheffield's proposal from the beginning, and just asked how to operate it.
"This is the way the world is. The smaller and weaker the country, the easier it is for us to control it. What William said is not wrong at all. We do not use plantations in our own country and operate in these countries where birds do not shit. Everyone can see
Even if you can see it, no one will care." As Gale said, he reached out and scratched the broken hair on his head, and said meaningfully, "In the industrial field, we have never set foot in it.
If you enter in a big way, you may lose your precious funds, and every bit of the funds you bring back is hard-earned.”
That’s really hard work! A strange look flashed across Sheffield’s face. Even the most simple and crude exploitation is hard work. Is there anything that is not hard work? For ordinary people, they can make money standing up.
They are all extravagant hopes. Ordinary people only have the right to make money on their knees. These people are just making money on their knees, and they are still not satisfied?
"We are also for the stability of these small countries. Don't look at me like this. What I say is true. At least we are more civilized than the local planters. Of course, when entering these countries, we should not be too harsh on our colleagues. We
Only by uniting together can we grow bigger and bigger." Sheffield spread his hands and said, "Think about it, we have opened a market of 70 to 80 million people for these small countries, and those hard-working employees should thank us.
, otherwise they will starve to death.”
There is shamelessness on top of shamelessness. Sheffield's words had the effect of shocking everyone. What Gale just said just showed that no one's money comes from strong winds. Sheffield directly put a layer of morality on his behavior.
It seems that Halo is not doing it for his own benefit, but for the suffering people all over the world.
No one spoke for a while, because they didn't know how to communicate at all. This reaction made Sheffield shake his head in his heart. These younger generations are really far behind their parents. You must know that the plantation owners swore loudly and Yang
Gay debate, "The treatment of black people on plantations is far better than that of workers in factories, much better."
"As far as I know, in fact, many companies have been operating in places like Colombia, Honduras, and Haiti in the past. Our biggest enemy should not be local capital, but the enemy comes from China." McHale, who had been silent, looked at it.
After taking a look at the reactions of the others, he said slowly, "How to defeat them is what we should consider."
Because of his background, McHale generally does not express his stance at such gatherings. The reason why he returned to the United States, a country that is more sensitive to skin color, is simple. His social circle is composed of these people, and these people must return.
When he arrived in the United States, his connections no longer existed, so he came with the idea of giving it a try.
"Good question, but based on your many years of experience in operating plantations, you should know a very basic thing. Food has a shelf life, especially fruits. On the sea, sea conditions change rapidly, and anything can happen." Sheffield raised an eyebrow.
Pick, stretched out his finger and knocked on the table and said in an emphatic tone, "They just need to stop obediently. If they insist on complying with the federal government's lies about encouraging competition, the sea will not be calm."
"You will use the slave hunting team to hijack their ship?" Gale tilted his head and said with an uncertain look on his face.
"What slave hunting team, Sheffield Black Gold Company!" Sheffield corrected calmly, "Actually, there is no need to go too far. Isn't it normal to delay a few days? Let the cargo ship get there, and the people inside
Everything is rotten or moldy. After a few times, they should know what kind of choice is the most beneficial, and we will also give a fair price to hand over to the Yang guys who want to leave."
"Yes, we have more connections in the ports in the southern states than the Yankees, and the geographical advantage is in our hands. We can think of ways to become competitive with other opponents. As long as they don't make money, they will naturally not compete with us.
Entanglement." Gale clapped his hands, obviously very much in agreement with Sheffield's analysis.
"Among the ports facing small Central American countries, there is no more suitable port than New Orleans. Here, we have the final say. Even if Yankee's company can arrive on time, I can make it impossible for him to unload cargo at this port.
.We will put the things on it until they are rotten." Sheffield said, snapping his fingers, glancing at everyone and asking, "My dear friends, are there any other questions? If not, we can set off now.
Have you gone to see the port? Plan its future use. If you are going to build a new warehouse, you should see it with your own eyes."
"Okay!" Everyone nodded and prepared to follow Sheffield to the port for a horse race.
A series of carriages pulled by horses galloped out of the Oak Manor. The jingling horses reminded pedestrians on the road to avoid it. Anne leaned on Sheffield's shoulder, looking very at ease, "I will be here after a while.
I just went to school, I can’t do it without going!”
"No!" Sheffield's reply was very straightforward, "I am a frequent visitor to Austin Girls' School. You will not have any problem going there."
"Why are you going to a girls' school?" The girl, who just felt a lightness on her left shoulder, who was as comfortable as a little cat just now, stood up at a speed that Sheffield had never seen before, and asked with a sullen face.
