"You touched me when you were not an adult, how can you be an adult?" Edith Rockefeller glanced coquettishly, lightly parted her lips and said, "Today really opened my eyes. No wonder the Confederacy had the confidence during the Civil War to want to start a business abroad.

War?"

"These are all small scenes. If Madam pays attention to me, you will definitely be surprised in the future." Sheffield said modestly, "Normal business competition is nothing, but Keane's off-the-table moves are useless to us, even if

I don’t care, those friends who have just returned from Brazil don’t care about this kind of petty blackmail, they are simply blinded by the profits.”

In the fight for the banana republics in Central America, just as Sheffield said, except for one opportunity, the remaining advantages are all on his side. He just didn't pay attention for a moment. As long as he concentrates on fighting for it, Keane

No matter how hard he struggles, it is useless. No matter whether it is funds, manpower or geographical advantages, he is not weaker than the opponent, and is even stronger.

"As for clothing matters, I will naturally help with public opinion! Coubertin happens to be French and must have some knowledge of the aristocratic circles in Paris. You and Rockefeller can meet this gentleman together then." Sheffield

I feel that many things are related to each other, and there is no need to use them in vain.

Coubertin said to Sheffield that it was a good sign that reflected his patriotic entrepreneur. The same was true for Rockefeller Jr., and it also had some value in promoting the pharmaceutical industry. But for Edith Rockefeller, the greatest value was

Being a French aristocrat could give Edith Rockefeller the opportunity to be in the spotlight.

It was precisely because of Coubertin's arrival that Sheffield was not prepared to encounter any minor obstacles to the United Fruit Company and set off back to the south. It still had the evaluation of the acquisition of the steel plant and had to receive Coubertin's arrival. It was not

The state of being so idle that my balls ache.

It’s just that he didn’t know that Edith Rockefeller had a big fight with her husband, “Why can the Sheffield family be led by a woman, but not me and you running a business together? Isn’t my background unworthy?”

"It's obvious that all the men in the Sheffield family have had accidents, and even the current heir is underage. Do you want to let me have an accident too?" Harold McCormick retorted very firmly, "You can't

Because you are Rockefeller's daughter, you want to get so much. Edith, look at other companies and don't always focus on special cases."

"It seems that I can't rely on you anymore. I should run my own business." Edith Rockefeller's eyes were full of disappointment. She always thought that she could manage the business together with her husband.

However, such an idea has always been resisted by Harold McCormick. Especially after meeting Sheffield, Edith Rockefeller learned that this large southern family did not exclude women from taking power, and she just wanted to run the business together.

She wanted to share the glory, but was resisted by her husband, which made her even more angry. It was clear that what she wanted was not much, and she also had 30 million US dollars in stocks, but she could not let Harold McCormick face it.

"Connor, tell me, after I take back the steel mill, can I hang up the Southern Cross flag? This doesn't seem to violate the constitution, right?" Sheffield dragged his chin with one hand and tilted his head to look at John Conn.

Na, the other party naturally told Lafayette the news by telegram. Lafayette's reaction was naturally not surprising and he very much approved of the idea of ​​​​taking action.

As Sheffield said, are women cruel in this regard? Sheffield just wants to exert a little pressure and force Keane to talk to him. If the other party relents, maybe he can let the other party withdraw with capital preservation.

Lafayette doesn't even want to talk about it.

According to the words in the telegram, once losses were caused to Keen, Morgan would naturally not continue to finance Keen's speculation, and would even abandon this businessman who wanted to take risks in Central America in order to stop losses.

In the eyes of ordinary people, a businessman like Keane is undoubtedly a revolutionary existence, but in the eyes of Morgan, it is nothing. Once it is discovered that it may suffer losses, there is no need for Sheffield United Fruit Company to do anything. Morgan will

He will turn his guns and drain all of Keen's funds. The evil villain can just let Morgan do it.

The capital market is unkind, and people go bankrupt every day in the United States. Once Morgan abandons this white glove that intervenes in Central America, this person's fate is destined to be tragic.

Sheffield just wanted this person to give up the market and not interfere in this field. Lafayette's idea was much simpler. She wanted this person to die.

John Connor didn't know what Sheffield was thinking, but when he heard that the Southern Cross flag was to be hung at the steel plant, he smiled bitterly and said, "Master, can you not have such thoughts? This will bring trouble to your company."

It’s a big trouble. This is not the South after all, and there are always some people who will stand up and criticize us.”

"That's true. The Union Army has not captured Chicago, but there is always a chance if you wait slowly." Sheffield said noncommittally, "If our steel mill is dominated by black people and is hostile to other white workers in Chicago,

In this way, when the Southern Cross flag is hung, black workers will not say anything. Hanging this flag should have the effect of rectifying order in the factory!"

Sheffield showed with practical actions that John Connor's words were as good as unsaid, and he still wanted to make his position clear. There was no special reason, he just wanted to disgust the Yankees.

"If there are not enough local black people, recruit workers from New Orleans, and talk about the fact that the North needs workers and do not discriminate against them in newspapers. Do we also need to get closer to the Yankees to show solidarity? It is best for all black people from the southern states to come to the North.

At that time, I will definitely serve as a pioneer for equal rights and recruit black workers in all the factories in Yankee territory. After all, I am so kind. The resources in the South are poor and there is nothing but land. It is better for us Dixie people to work harder and farm the land. This way

The best of both worlds!" Sheffield nodded constantly as he said it, feeling that it must have its own place in the history of equal rights in the United States. As for the Southern Cross flag, those are just minor issues, and the flaws do not outweigh the flaws.

"Good advice, young master!" John Connor expressed his loyalty and flattered her without conscience. "According to Miss Anne's calculations, she will arrive in Chicago in the next few days. It won't be a problem to have other people to protect her safety."

"It's good that she's here. She can connect with the royalist nobles!" Sheffield yawned and stood up to stretch his muscles and tiredly said.

The distinguished French guest, an important member of the Royalists, and a pioneer of the Olympics, traveled thousands of miles across the Atlantic and finally set foot on the land of the New World. After landing in New York, he finally arrived in loyal Chicago. First he met a sunny boy,

Waiting there full of friendliness.

"Distinguished guest, I have been waiting for you for a long time!" Sheffield said with a smile on his face, and with a shamelessness comparable to that of a Paris newspaper, hanging on Anne's arm. At least he would never say that the Corsican monster was in Juan.
