To say that the major international event now is that the Boer War has officially ended. The British finally negotiated with the Boers and won the Boer War. The next stage of the South African Federation is ready.
When it comes to watching British jokes, there is no distinction between north and south. The Yankee and Dixie people have always shared a common language. Except for the British themselves, the whole world is happy about Britain's difficulties facing the Boers this time.
Rockefeller Jr. and Sheffield are naturally no exception. The British have always been a bridge of friendship between friends of this era. Rockefeller Jr. appreciates the new weather in the construction of New Orleans. "The efficiency of Chinese workers is a model for all workers. This It must be admitted that if the mining areas are all Chinese workers, I believe there will not be so many strikes. "
"Because they are foreigners, they are welcomed by many miners. But for other workers, Chinese workers are the enemy, so when I use them, they are usually sent to foreign projects. There is no way to use them in New Orleans. "Sheffield told about her previous difficulties, but she smiled helplessly," Sometimes I think, I really should thank them, but I can't do what they think. "
"Slave masters also have gratitude in their hearts?" Rockefeller Jr.'s face was unbelief. "Don't you ever discriminate against these people."
"No, to be precise, if black people are like that, I don't discriminate against black people." Sheffield denies, "but their laziness can only be stimulated by the whip, and only when bullets are fired at any time, can black people work hard. You can also talk to the Chinese. When you talk to black people, he thought you were afraid of him. Then I sent them to Puerto Rico. Be careful not to be too curious. There should be no problems. "
Sheffield really wanted to thank Huagong, and eventually found that she had nothing to help, it was a good thing to be sent abroad. At least Puerto Rico is also a good place with beautiful scenery, just worry about yellow fever. For this kind of virus, there is no way to tell the truth a hundred years later. Why do you emphasize prevention once the virus appears? Because it is really time for the outbreak, the medicine is only an auxiliary effect, and ultimately depends on the human immunity.
When the Black Death in Europe disappeared, the Europeans did not find a way to cure it. Eventually, the cause of the Black Death disappeared because the death rate had exceeded the infection rate. The Black Death had not spread and the host was already dead. This is considered to have subsided.
"Should I send some doctors to follow?" Rockefeller Jr. took the initiative, because the Rockefeller family vigorously develops the medical industry and wants to train a group of elites. "But you have to ensure the safety of the doctors. My hospital has never been Where the patient unreasonably made trouble, all the troublemakers went to prison. "
Sheffield absolutely believes that the protection of doctors in the United States can be regarded as a paradise for doctors. Don't say it's hands-on, even if it's a word of curse, as long as the doctor is dissatisfied, you can call the police directly. Therefore, although the United States is uncomfortable if the shooting is not carried out in a day, very few medical personnel have been threatened by this kind.
At first glance, the original source was in the Rockefeller family. The slave owner said why the United States doctor group is so powerful, and found the historical truth through chat. Sheffield felt very happy, took a little Rockefeller around, and still commended the Chinese laborers The monument of the photo together, this is the end, continue to return to the manor to prepare the enemy on both sides.
"It is okay to treat diseases, but don't take Huagong as a test product. The joint company is an international company. Even if the time is not right, it must enter Asia in the future. Daqing is the sovereign state of many countries, even if it is in decline There is still a lot of residual power, but I am still ready to deal with it. "
Sheffield remembered that for the medical industry, Rockefeller Jr. must first give the other person a vaccination in order to get the urine of people taking the test.
"You think about it for a long time, but you can rest assured that I have found a more suitable place." Rockefeller Jr. was surprised by the rare kindness of the slave owner, and laughed, "What do you think of a long-term, are you planning to enter Asia?" But you can rest assured that I have found a place with less control, India controlled by the Englishman, where there is also a large population, and it is much less emotional than the Qing Dynasty ’s xenophobia, and it is very easy to deceive. "
Sheffield straightened her waist and stretched her face, secretly Shiva blessing, this is Rockefeller's own attention. He didn't talk to India. Only in terms of means, Rockefeller Jr.'s gaze was almost 100 years long. He even keenly found the test field of later generations of Western pharmaceutical companies, and the slave owners had to say admiration.
The only thing that made Rockefeller Jr. unsatisfactory were the few women at Sheffield's Oak Manor who, in front of themselves, did not shy away at all. Is it worthy of Edith Rockefeller? There are two children.
As the New Orleans World Expo approached, the guests who received the invitation letter also slowly gathered in this southern pearl. Sheffield, on behalf of the United Company, welcomed guests round after round.
German companies are ultimately a very important group of people, including the giants of Bayer and Thyssen. But to Sheffield was very surprised that Krupp's heir, Artillery Queen Beta, also left Essen and received an invitation to come to North America, which is the backbone of the German industrial enterprises.
"Even if the penguins sent from Antarctica were on my behalf, I was not surprised, but the arrival of the Queen of Artillery was really amazing." Sheffield reached out and greeted in a low voice, "Dear Queen, I really have a little business I want to talk to you. "
"Oh, Mr. William, what you said also surprised me. Could it be that the United Company has made progress in the arms field?" Beta Krupp said with a gentle smile. "Then I am very, very interested."
"With your help, I can strangle the Dupont Commonwealth." Sheffield showed his white teeth. "As an enterprise in the United States, the Dupont Commonwealth even supported the British, and it was a shame to kill the weak Boer. . "
"Mr. William's mind is really broad ..." Beta Krupp responded sternly. Will a person like Sheffield care about the Boers across the Atlantic? This is just a joke.
Of course it was a joke, Sheffield just used the fate of the Boers to please the Germans. Although there is no clear way to do what the British do, but who does n’t know the Germans ’attitude during the Boer War? How much has been done in the dark to make the British sick?
Do not think that the Germans can do anything on the European continent. The German southwestern Africa in northwestern South Africa is a colony of Germans. With the close distance, will the Germans do nothing? Who knows the relationship between Dutch and German?
"Are you fancy this queen of artillery?" After letting Beta Krupp live in the manor, when Sheffield returned to her villa, Anne first made trouble, and Natalia kept nodding on the side, apparently very much agreeing This guess.
"I'm just talking about business!" Sheffield looked dazed. Where and where is this? "Is Beta very beautiful, far inferior to the two of you, I can't walk when I see a woman people?"
"Edith Rockefeller is not outstanding, aren't you also hooked up, this artillery queen is not so old." Annie said sourly, "Who knows you will sacrifice for business? I heard it is Like you, she is the only competitor of a big business. "
"The more outrageous it is!" When she mentioned Edith Rockefeller, Sheffield was a little lack of confidence, but still explained, "The German Empire is an imperial country, and the Krupp Company is the military pillar of the German Empire. You are William II. The world ’s words will make a heir of such an important company marry a foreigner? To be honest, if the French empire also exists today, I want you not to be around so easily. The Expo will soon start, and the exhibition halls will soon Do n’t think about it. I heard that President Roosevelt is coming. "
President Roosevelt has indeed decided to attend, although the first phase of his mediation negotiations with the Coal Cartel and the Miners ’Union has failed, it can be learned that Sheffield has invested heavily and invited many guests to host the Expo in New Orleans. After the news, he was still preparing to come over in person.
Deep in his heart, Roosevelt did not necessarily have a good impression on Sheffield, but this grand occasion helped the current citizen class to pay attention to negative news, so he left the White House to prepare to come and host this Expo.
"Our president came in person and to be honest, as long as he came to New Orleans, his life was in your hands. Are you not going to kill him?" Rockefeller Jr. heard the news and rushed at Sheffield with a drumming voice Encouraged.
"You give me less, why don't you kill him in New York, I'm hosting the World Expo, live broadcast of an assassination of the president in front of the company representatives who came to New Orleans for the whole world?" Sheffield opened the distance from Rockefeller Jr. Clearly stated, "So, you find someone to assassinate, and I will create an environment for you."
On September 27, 1902, the New Orleans Expo officially opened with the theme of the new century, corresponding to the theme of the century review of the Paris Expo two years ago. Federal President Theodore Roosevelt hosted the opening ceremony in Louise Accompanied by the Governor of the State, Lange Hunt, gave a passionate speech, hoping that companies and guests from various countries who came to New Orleans would feel at home here.
"The United States ... The United States was born in the New World. This country is a new country!" Sheffield cleared his throat. As the host, he had his own speech, reviewed the history of the city, and even mentioned it as a new The history of France ’s important town has reached the twentieth century, and it talked about the prospect of future life. Under the intensive flashlight, the slave owner officially announced the start of the New Orleans Expo.
