Chapter 67: Female role models

The cost is indeed huge. Just the capital of the registered United Fruit Company will cost 10 million dollars in dollars. This includes shipping, buying land for plantations, and building railways. Among them, the money for building railways is not something that ordinary capitalists can get. How important is the railway line in this era, you can look at the wealth of Vanderbilt and Henry Huntington. Controlling the transportation hub is to make money while lying down.
Vanderbilt once ordered the closure of New York's railway bridge in order to warn opponents who challenged its authority. At that time, there was only one railway bridge in New York. The day when Vanderbilt closed the railway bridge, it paralyzed the whole New York. Compared with Vanderbilt, the capitalists of later generations were as pure as newborn babies.
Buying land to build plantations in these small Central American countries would never do without repairing the railway. Isn't there a saying? Wherever the railway is repaired, the forces of imperialism extend. The United Fruit Company wants to control the fruit market in the United States in order to make money. It needs to be recovered before it is invested, not to do charity.
"Buy the land first, then build the railway! Then build the supporting facilities for the railway, control the port, and cut off the shipping of other domestic competitors. The problem of the sea will be handled by Heijin, and then the domestic fruit market is up to us. "Sheffield looked at a plan that was still on the table." Any tropical fruit entering the United States requires our consent. Whether it ’s bananas, coffee, sugar cane, sugar cane is not used. It ’s what we said.
Gail and McHale put their hands on the table and listened to Sheffield telling that it was a plan for HTC. If the dancing man knows who they are, they will definitely treat each other as a liar. What should be considered is that the other party should be sent to prison.
However, the other party is the only heir of the Sheffield family, which is naturally not a scammer, but a rare young genius, born businessman, with a model of forward-looking.
"Union Fruit Company, mainly united! You and my parents used to fight side by side, leaving this precious relationship. Only by uniting together can we achieve our purpose. So I do n’t want to say something disappointing, but out of basic I still have to say business ethics, as everyone knows! "Sheffield took out a revolver and shot it on the table to emphasize," Texas is a place with simple folk customs, and the same is true of citizens throughout the South. They hate eating outside. People, such as Yankee, so at any time, shareholders ca n’t betray the interests of United Fruit Company. The guns should be consistent with the outside world! "
This is the first time that Sheffield singled out the girders. Even though the Galeries Lafayette talked about it, it didn't matter how many times heirs failed. He was afraid of repeating the same mistakes of learning the descendants of Vanderbilt and indulging in European life. There is already one such Sheffield family, and it is still not going back in Paris.
Everyone would say that Sheffield was unwilling to pay a few tuition fees to get on track. With such a great geographical position in his hands, he does not believe that competition can only be achieved by others.
"How come, what's so terrible about black people, I can tell at a glance that they are black people. The Yankee guys look like us, but the black-hearted people are the most abominable." Gail scolded hard, glancing The companions here said, "I believe that you think so too."
In fact, my heart is pretty dark! Sheffield felt a little guilty in her heart and felt a little guilty about her black and white heart, which lasted for less than a second.
On this day, after witnessing a number of professionals such as accountants, lawyers, etc., United Fruit Company was established. In the next few days, huge amounts of funds were injected from the shareholders of all parties. With a registered capital of US $ 12 million, almost at the same time, celebrities of major shareholders left New Orleans and went to Haiti, Panama, Honduras, Colombia and even Venezuela to investigate and find the most suitable land.
Sheffield did not pursue a shareholding in United Fruit Company. Of course, among the individual shareholders, he is still the largest shareholder. The investment of 4 million US dollars is mainly to give a warm hug to other planters who have just returned.
Railway experts and workers were also recruiting at the same time. The whole action was done in one go. Almost all the preparations were carried out at the same time, which caused a huge wave in the fruit industry. Of course, outside the fruit industry, I did not feel anything wrong. Even if I heard it, I did n’t take it seriously, the Dixie people started to play plantation again? What kind of news is this, what else do these southerners do besides farming?
As long as any industry has the leading power, it has huge benefits, but the industry also needs to be divided into scales. The agricultural products in the South are originally stronger. Not all capital is headed, and they must compete with the Sheffield family in agricultural products.
It is not as good as the heir's petty fights, as Mrs. Anna sent someone to investigate to see if the agricultural products plummeted. It was a cause for concern that someone could not support selling their own small farm. Lafayette has always had a strong interest in merging the land, and will not miss any opportunity.
In various trust-based industries, the establishment of United Fruit Company is not noticeable. Compared with the establishment of United Fruit Company, another event has been more widely reported.
That is, Mrs. Anna donated two million dollars in the name of the Sheffield family to build professional police schools and train professional police personnel in several cities of Richmond, New Orleans, Atlanta, and Kansas. Provide scholarships for these future police officers, build a more professional police force, and better manage the community.
This kind of charitable act will naturally be reported by many newspapers who have eaten lard, and these editors who rely on the black and white to reverse their lives will naturally pursue this move after receiving money and step on the United States police system. Disadvantages. I do n’t seem to listen to them. I ’m destined to take big pills in America!
Just open a newspaper and turn a blind eye to the pages that criticized the United Kingdom. Anyway, it is not easy for American newspapers this year to find a newspaper that says something to the British.
Sheffield saw a report that praised Mrs. Anna's charity. In the report, Lafayette is a strong intellectual woman. It has made a tremendous contribution to the recovery of the South after the war. It has adopted many orphans because of the war. It is a role model and a perfect example for women in the United States.
"Did you give less money to this newspaper?" Sheffield thought it was a little bit black and black. Is it the editor-in-chief of this newspaper, a traitor hidden in our camp? Did you move from the north?
"I must learn from Mrs. Anna in the future!" Anne blurted out the words, causing Sheffield almost to jump up, lowering her voice and pretending to be affectionate. . "
How can Anne know what his grandmother was doing? There is another Galeries Lafayette at home, can this day still survive?
