"In the United Fruit Company, Mr. Keane is a very motivated person. We have made great progress across Central America and won a lot of land. Now we are beginning to benefit, and finally let us losers, There is a little bit of living. "Gael spoke with a self-deprecating look. Although the time had passed for more than a year, he still harbored failure.
Sheffield smiled and comforted, "United Fruit Company is a good deal, but our shareholders are still too many, it seems that there are some wolves and less meat, each family must have a lot of people to eat compared to the family who migrated back, Plantations in small Central American countries cannot absorb so many people. After all, it is a country of others. We ca n’t help hiring locals and replace them with our own old people. Moreover, the cost is too high, and the big investment is small. . "
"In fact, when necessary, United Fruit Company can also be listed." McHale moved his heart and proposed a quicker way to return funds. Many companies will choose to cut leeks in the market when they have insufficient funds. First of all, I will ensure that I will not lose money. Of course, if I can continue to develop later, it will be better. If you encounter a bottleneck and decisively cash out and leave.
This suggestion was rejected by Sheffield, lowering his voice, "Recently, the stock market has not been very friendly to me. It seems that someone wants to teach me a lesson. The Coca-Cola Company has been given special attention by unknown people."
Explaining the recent strangeness of Coca-Cola's stock, many shareholders nodded clearly, and many people said, "It seems that the financial industry is also very exclusive. If it is not listed, it will not be listed, and we will not lack money."
"That can't be said, who would think that there is too much money? Even if you recruit workers and don't give enough money, people will not work well, but fortunately, under special conditions, I still found these workers." Sheffield used to He boasted sexually, and then said, "We will first consolidate the hegemony of the fruit industry to a position where no one will shake it. Then we will go on the market for acquisitions. Anyway, now there is not much pressure on funds. We are waiting patiently. Just use the Coca-Cola Company to see how long a financial giant can violate the laws of the market? When I open up channels and occupy the market, I do n’t believe that the market is not responding. "
In the stratagem, winning a thousand miles away, although the descendants of these slave owners have not heard of this sentence, but see Sheffield's conventional calm plan, all have agreed, saying that they do not lack time to wait.
McHale talked about Standard Oil's stone exploration work in Texas. So far, Zhun Petroleum has not found a suitable place, and is still working tirelessly. However, this is also normal. Texas is the largest state in the country, and it is not always possible for people to pick up their underwear.
If others can find it by themselves, Sheffield will accept the reality. If you ca n’t find it, do n’t blame him. He wo n’t take the initiative to remind Standard Oil where they need the oil resources.
The reason why McHale talked about the oil issue is that after McHale came back, he directly hired a manager to take charge of the operation of the manor, and his father was also playing the heat. He himself was hanging out in the southern states, helping Sheffield in Texas to stare at a period of standard oil. It was on the occasion of boredom that he heard that Sheffield had arrived in California and he came over nonstop.
In fact, this is also the state after many families came back, thinking about what to do. Looking for a new industry to run, the most important thing is that the pattern of the southern states is different from before. After these families leave, there must be new groups to get rich and replace their original positions. It is impossible for the southern states to rely on Sheffield United. Hold on.
Many of the land with the best population increase already have owners. Sheffield knows that once such an idle period of time is too long, these families may miss life in Brazil. So a United Fruit Company is not enough to tie up these shareholders.
This is also the purpose for him to call these shareholders. If he ca n’t eat so much land by himself, someone must help to share, and these people are also looking for better land, and they also have this demand.
"What do you think of Texas?" After asking about the home base camp, Sheffield was lying on the table, but her head was raised and asked in a weird posture of the times, "Is it a good place?"
"The largest state in the whole country, with a good climate, close to the sea, and developed agriculture and animal husbandry, is really a good place ..."
Sheffield's inquiry caused a warm response. In fact, it depends on whether the Sheffield family fled the United States after the defeat, and how good it is now. Thirty years ago, everyone was the same, but now the gap is obvious. Fortunately, they expressed the unity of the Dixie people and accepted them back, otherwise these people don't know where to go.
"Large area, good climate, close to the sea, developed agriculture and animal husbandry? In fact, California, where you are now, also has this condition, don't you find it, the most important thing is that there are only two million in the three states along the Pacific coast. The population is the most important in California. Even if he accounts for half of it, it is also a very sparse population, but it has a vast land. All of this is similar to that of Texas. Everyone is a partner. You should know best that my grandfather Relocating his family, attracting the citizens of Louisiana with superior conditions, and occupying the leading position in Texas. "Sheffield's fingertips struck the table rhythmically, saying," God bless, also It ’s lucky to have a second chance ... "
The whole meeting room is audible, everyone makes a thinking expression, and now recall that moving to Texas is an important step in the rise of the Sheffield family, and there are always precedents for success. .
As everyone was thinking, Sheffield said unhurriedly, "To be honest, I have decided to develop here, and my grandmother also agreed. Now I am waiting for the land transfer from the state government. The basic reason is that I ca n’t eat such a huge land, I do n’t have enough power, think about it or you partners can trust, so I think there is something good to share. "
"Evelyn, get the land!" Sheffield gestured to her secretary to take out the map of the United States. Soon a map including California appeared in front of everyone.
In fact, most people are not interested in maps. They are interested in the female secretary beside Sheffield. A few people exchanged glances indistinctly, as if guessing the identity of the girl.
"It looks very clean, just like a lily. Guess why William kept her around."
"Hey!" Another small smile whispered, revealing the expression that everyone understood, but immediately changed his face seriously, "I don't know!"
Such a pure girl stood on the side and seemed to be incompatible with the slave owner's party. Sheffield did not feel wrong. The reason why the flowers are flowers is not to compare cow dung? He is not hypocritical, he is the cow dung.
Holding a pencil, Sheffield draws on the map and draws a few arrows. The unknown person thought he was planning a battle in the name of a general, just as Rockefeller did during the Civil War speculation. .
"California ’s location is actually superior to Texas, and Los Angeles’ location can be compared to New York on the east coast. If you use the South as a contrast, it is equivalent to New Orleans in the middle of the southern states, which can radiate a lot. Areas, in fact, as long as we stand here, we can have an influence on many states in the Great West. "
Speaking of this Sheffield put away the pencils, "The only hardship is that, like in Texas a few decades ago, the basic conditions here are not too developed and need to be developed, but if we stand firm , Future benefits are incalculable. "
Whether other shareholders will be immeasurable, Sheffield does not know, but it will definitely be a huge gain, and he is the inestimable amount.
"Another important issue is that this year is an election year. If we move quickly, we can help our candidates as much as possible in the election and control California so that we can better fulfill our dreams." Sheffield said the final An important reason.
The huge amount of funds behind these shareholders can be used to hire more local workers and increase the impact on these voters. Sheffield knows the power of a gold lord. In front of so many opponents, especially the opponents and many large companies, even if he wants to help the Democratic Party win the election again, it is almost impossible.
But if it is limited to one of the many states in the country, you can concentrate on trying it. However, although California has a population of less than one million, it is inevitable that you ca n’t take it all by yourself. This requires the help of other people. .
This year is the election year? This reminder once again concussed the shareholders who have just come back. They do not lack money themselves. Most people are pursuing what they already have. They want to go further, but also for the pleasure of manipulating rights. To intervene in politics, let's not talk about success and failure, this matter must be done.
What's more, the good vision of the second Texas has been heartening enough, and Gail first agreed, "Okay, we will turn this into a second Texas."
"As long as the land transfer is feasible, I will definitely eat the land." McHale also said immediately.
I snapped a finger to get the wine up, and Sheffield toasted, "My dear friends, you will never lose money, because I will also buy a large piece of land next to the border, and I will lose money together, but This is impossible."
"Fuck!" Sheffield's statement dispelled everyone's last doubts, and the sound of wine glasses collided.
