Chapter 147: Digging

In Sheffield's eyes, Chicago is a Yankee territory, belonging to the northern states, and not far from the northern cities of Boston, New York, and Philadelphia.
But in the eyes of citizens of the Northeast states of the United States, Chicago is not like this. The city belongs to Illinois, and Illinois in many eyes belongs to the Midwest of the United States and is not part of the Northeast states.
Different groups have completely different geographical understandings. Taking the South of the United States as an example, the Dixie group includes all the states of the Southern Union. In political terms, there is also a southern base. The southern base is after the Civil War, until During the nearly one hundred years of the Vietnam War, the states that were firmly in the hands of the Democratic Party, including but not all of the Southern Union. But in fact, the greater South still exceeds this number.
The southern electrification in Sheffield ’s plan actually included 16 states, none of which included the Great Western states, but also included Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland, which swayed during the Civil War. Dominated the economy, but did not break away from the federal government of the United States.
This division is like, some people in the Republic think that the south is the Qinling Huaihe River, and some people think that it is the Yangtze River. From the dialect standard, Sichuan is also closer to the north. There is no uniform standard.
As the standard Yankee site in Sheffield's eyes, Chicago actually feels like the Hubei people. Towards the west of Chicago, it has been regarded as mainly agricultural, while the north and east are mainly industrial.
Therefore, it is necessary to give consideration to the votes of the agricultural population and the industrial population. Whether it is the Democratic Party or the Republican Party, it is often considered from the perspective of balance, and the main battlefield is placed in Chicago.
"I actually hate Illinois very much!" Sheffield turned his back to Edith Rockefeller, but the ear could still hear the voice of the young woman changing clothes, which was impossible.
"I guess the most symbolic politician in Illinois is Lincoln, which is also called the Lincoln Land, so you hate Illinois!" Edith Rockefeller said while changing clothes. "Actually your family is second to none in the South. , How can you still be so vengeful? "
cut! If it wins, it is now second to none in the entire United States. Now that I should be in Moscow, I will be out of touch, and still struggle hard with weight? But not now. If the two successive generations of heirs are not successful, it is the second Vanderbilt family. Their own opportunities have been misappropriated. They are now chic in Paris, forcing him to accept social beatings prematurely.
I was thinking about going forward with a heavy load. A nightgown fell from the sky over Sheffield's head and reached out to pull off the nightgown. The tip of the nose seemed to smell the femininity above. This should be changed.
"I still think that as a supporter of the Democratic Party and meeting with Republican candidates, this matter should still be avoided!" Sheffield said, while Edith Rockefeller had come to him and put on a set of quite The conservative clothes asked, "How about the tightness of the parcel? Are you relieved?"
"Hmm! No, what does this have to do with me!" Sheffield squeezed a bit of a wry smile. How could Edith Rockefeller always have the illusion that she is a peerless beauty, throwing out the era photo filter, she can only be considered a seven Divided into women, at most it's a good class.
"Don't make trouble, it's too deliberate to go out now, as if I had raised a small one here." Edith Rockefeller looked at Sheffield for a long time, and found a bow tie for Sheffield from the closet. Forgot to tell, "I bought it recently, not McCormick."
Edith Rockefeller no longer claimed the term husband when he spoke, but Sheffield happened to be thinking about something else and actually passed it.
Near noon, William McKinley entered the villa under the guidance of a servant, with meticulous hair combing. William McKinley, in his fifties, has been a lawyer, county prosecutor, congressman and governor. Be considered a senior politician. This age is not too old for a politician, it is still an age where it can be ambitious. Presidents like Kennedy and Zipper are ultimately a minority.
As a minor, Sheffield naturally has no vision problems, remembering the appearance of William McKinley at a glance, and a person's name flashed in his mind. Churchill, the burial of the British Empire. William McKinley looks like Churchill after his old age. With sharp edges and eye-catching eyes and meticulous hairstyle, it seems to be a very strong character.
It ’s just that after the real meeting, William McKinley greeted Edith Rockefeller with a respectful and polite expression,
When I saw John last time, Edith was still a lady. The First Lady of Chicago. "
"I'm not the first lady of Chicago, I'm just Edith Rockefeller." Edith Rockefeller corrected it unhurriedly, and then invited William McKinley into the house to sit down, not forgetting to introduce Sheffield, " This man is the heir of Sheffield United. He rarely leaves Texas. He is currently in business in Chicago and temporarily lives with me. "
Compared with Edith Rockefeller's generous, Sheffield frowned, how he feels a tens of thousands of possessions.
"Well!" This introduction made William McKinley not know how to interface. Citizens of the United States have always admired politicians who dare to go to the battlefield. He was naturally also a soldier. He entered the war during the Civil War and finally retired as a major. With the success of his career, he naturally knew about the landlords rooted in Texas.
He also knew that the Sheffield family had only been low-key for about a decade after the war. As the Democratic Party counterattacked in the southern states, it quickly recovered its strength and was deeply tied to the Democrats. I am a Republican and am interested in appearing as a presidential candidate. Such a person appeared in Edith Rockefeller ’s home. For a time, William McKinley felt very confused.
"William Sheffield, it ’s very nice to see Mr. William. I heard that Mr. Governor has a small record and connections in the banking industry. I believe that there will be full confidence in the primary elections within the Republican Party." Sheffield took the initiative to reach out and William Mai Holding Jinli together, the power and money politics of the United States has a long history. It has been started since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Which candidate's assets do not far exceed the property of ordinary citizens is not a problem.
"Although I am interested in showing greater ambitions in politics and benefiting the citizens of the entire United States, the opponents are also very powerful!" William McKinley nodded slightly, and actually wanted to get a little out of Sheffield's mouth. information.
How is this possible, a staunch supporter of the Democratic Party, how could there be a move to vote before the enemy. Sheffield did not say a nonsense in front of the old political hooligan, since knowing that he might not be the opponent of William McKinley ’s debate Just say nothing.
When the three of them were seated, Sheffield opened a book directly, and no matter what the content started, one of your things had nothing to do with me, and you could treat me like air. No war, no war, no defense, no surrender, no death, no departure, it is the state of Sheffield now.
Anyway, he wasn't going to say one more word, William McKinley wanted to say what he would not leave, just sitting here anyway. With a passive resistance, William McKinley really had no choice.
"William is not an outsider, Mr. William McKinley!" Edith Rockefeller slowly opened the round for Sheffield. "There is nothing to say directly, but there is nothing to avoid."
"It's nothing more than a transaction of power and money, what can be avoided." Sheffield's voice came from behind, and he really didn't treat himself as an outsider.
William McKinley really came to seek some support. It is important to know that the oil industry employs a lot of workers. To a large extent, it has gotten the boss, and it has gotten most people in this industry. So visit the Rockefeller family sooner or later, and of course visit other industry giants in the future.
But looking directly at the old Rockefeller is too obvious. In addition to Chicago's geographic location and the relationship with Edith Rockefeller in Chicago, William McKinley chose a first-hand curve to save the country and prepared to take the woman route.
William McKinley expounded his current views on the economy of the United States and paid tribute to giants in various industries. He believed that many giant enterprises actually played a role in economic development. Then Feng Feng continued, "I believe this is not only in the north, but also in the interests of the entire United States."
While speaking, William McKinley's eyes were still on Sheffield. Obviously, the supplement behind this sentence was directed at this famous Democratic Gold Master.
"Similarly, Wilkins once said in Arlington. By the way, Mr. William McKinley is also an Ohio, right? Sure enough, people in a place have the same idea." Sheffield put it down, the old was on the road , "Protect the interests of industry giants? It sounds good to hear ..."
"This is of course, Master William. As far as I know, Sheffield United is also booming in various fields." William McKinley's eyes lit up, and he seemed to feel that the dawn of a warrior without war .
I have to say that William McKinley was thinking too much. Sheffield was absolutely impossible to betray Democrats, because the hatred of the citizens of the South against the Republican Party continued until the Vietnam War.
