The economy is inherently bad. It is not a big problem for people of Sheffield's level, but it is a big problem for the ordinary working class. In recent years, the economy has been depressed. The capitalists have no time to take care of themselves and are struggling to survive. Naturally, ordinary workers will not

If you receive any kind of favorable treatment and really want to cause trouble, you will be fired directly in the general environment. This is a common thing in this era.

Therefore, in the United States in 1895, various strikes and protests occurred one after another, and workers hoped to receive more effective protection. However, in the context of this economic depression, it was absolutely impossible for the capitalists to give in, because they were also gritting their teeth and persisting.

This economic depression was only caused by the German guests invited by Sheffield. This economic crisis broke out first in Germany. Five years ago, the German stock market plummeted. Since then, the stock price has continued to decline for more than two years.

, there were about 15,000 bankruptcies, and the scale of railway construction was reduced by 60%. This coincided with a bad agricultural harvest.

However, the German economy has improved, and I believe that the United States' economy will also improve soon due to the general environment.

As for what will happen after this economic depression? This question is actually very simple. The capitalist cycle of about ten years has actually started long ago. It started with the emergence of overproduction in the UK sixty years ago.

In 1989 and 1995, it almost followed a cycle of about once every ten years.

After this economic crisis, Sheffield remembered that when the next economic crisis came, the affected countries began to focus on the military industry as their main field. They no longer wanted to tolerate what they saw as the mistakes of others and prepared for a general showdown.

Of course, this idea is still a bit far-fetched. Germany is the source of this economic crisis, which does not mean that they are now guests of the Sheffield family. The German economy has recovered and it already has money to invest economically in the United States.

We are all rich people, so if it doesn't work out, we can just cut the leeks. In fact, the emergence of giant trusts in various industries is actually cutting the leeks, forcing small and medium-sized businesses to get out quickly, and vacating the market.

Sheffield believed that given the size and population of the United States, leeks would definitely grow faster than Britain, France, and Germany in Europe. The day Britain, France, and Germany couldn't stand it, it would be an opportunity for the United States to skyrocket. After all, this was a comparison.

In a rotten world, the United States has the capital to continue to persevere.

This is completely different from the situation a hundred years later. It is not that the leeks in the United States will be gone after a hundred years, but because of over-reliance on finance, the leeks that are very lush in the eyes of other countries are not enough for the federal harvest, which is very embarrassing.

"I believe that the economic depression is slowly leaving us! The economy of the German Empire has been improving for two years. The international environment is conducive to economic development. There is no reason for the United States to have a hard time!" Sheffield met at a gathering of celebrities in Chicago.

Rockefeller Jr., regardless of whether others knew him or not, directly stated that the economic environment this year was not a good one but a great one, and that the cloud of economic depression had passed.

Little Rockefeller opened his mouth in surprise. Is this big Texas landowner really so confident? If the other party's main business project was agriculture and animal husbandry, Little Rockefeller would almost believe it when he saw such a confident partner.

!But considering that Sheffield has just entered the industrial field, why are you joining in the fun in front of so many celebrities? Who will believe you!

Of course, Rockefeller Jr. could vaguely understand this trend through a professional team, but given his personality, he would not be so bold. The other party had just come into contact with the industrial field, so how could he be so confident?

After some social work with a group of local celebrities, Sheffield walked up to Little Rockefeller and whispered, "I thought you wouldn't show up for such an occasion. After all, you are such a serious person."

"When you come to Chicago, you have to blend in. Besides, my sister married here, and she likes this kind of occasion very much." Young Rockefeller sighed and said helplessly, "When I show up, she will be happier. I will take care of things at home."

It’s hard to tell you.”

A strange look flashed across Sheffield's face? What do you mean it's hard to reveal things at home? Could it be another drama about feuds between wealthy families? Why do these upper-class people always have so many bastard things to complain about?

But this is not impossible. Everyone is a different individual, and not everything will go smoothly if you have money. There is no shortage of people in the world who complain for no reason, and maybe little Rockefeller's sister is.

Of course, little Rockefeller didn't want to mention it, and Sheffield didn't want to ask. He just mentioned his confidence in preparing to show off his talents. After drinking a few drinks, he went to the bathroom. Although he was educating little Rockefeller in this righteous way, in fact, he also

He doesn't like such noisy situations, and even the bathroom is more attractive to him than the hall.

"Should I remind him that he is on the wrong path?" Seeing Sheffield's panic, Rockefeller thought for a second and finally decided to pretend he didn't see it.

Sheffield was actually very embarrassed. He clearly remembered that there was no one there when he came in. So there was only one possibility for him to glare at the lady standing in front of the mirror with tears in her eyes. One of the two people must have gone wrong.

Already.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps approaching quickly. In order not to aggravate the embarrassment, Sheffield quickly pulled the woman who was wiping her tears in the mirror to avoid her. Their eyes met, and Sheffield's hand was still on the other woman's smooth back.

, this woman is in her twenties and looks to be well-groomed. She is wearing a long purple skirt and a pair of phoenix eyes staring at her fiercely. However, unless there is a woman chatting outside the door, she will definitely not

Give up and give up.

This also proved a problem, that is, the person who went to the wrong place was not her, but Sheffield. The few minutes seemed like a century, and Sheffield had to listen to the sound of water dripping for a while in embarrassment! Waiting until

After the others left, they whispered, "Don't tell this matter. You are also a member of the upper class. The jewelry on your hands and the diamonds on your neck are both valuable. Keeping the secret is good for both of us."

"You don't know me?" Feeling the warmth of the big hand on her back, the woman bit her red lips and thought, is this a new method? Want to attract her own attention?

"Who are you?" Sheffield asked in a very exaggerated manner. Although this woman was very delicate and had a good figure, and the smell of her perfume penetrated into his nose, but these things made it necessary for him to get to know her?

However, he was afraid that someone would come in again, so Sheffield quickly put his hands away and prepared to leave, not forgetting to say, "Clean the tears from the corners of your eyes. You have to keep pretending for such an occasion."

After hearing this, the woman quickly tidied herself up in the mirror, giving the daredevil in front of her a chance to leave.

Sheffield pretended that this incident had not happened. Without any witnesses, he continued to chat with Rockefeller Jr. and talked about his confidence in Chicago's development prospects.

Rockefeller Jr. introduced Sheffield to a professor from the University of Chicago. Sheffield was not surprised at all. His family also supported universities in Texas. Just as he was about to say something, Rockefeller Jr. saw a figure approaching and couldn't help but

He said, "Edith, why are you here!"

"Harold can't come because he has something to do!" Edith Rockefeller cast her eyes on Sheffield and pretended that nothing happened and said, "Who is this?"

"William Sheffield, my partner!" Rockefeller Jr. quickly introduced, "Father also attaches great importance to this matter."

"You are the Texas rancher!" Edith Rockefeller pretended to meet her for the first time, stretched out her wet hands and said, "I am Edith Rockefeller!"
