Chapter 172: Sin under the gala

Walking on the streets of Athens, all the men and women met with smiles. It was not a few days before the opening of the Olympic Games. As a newly born country that had not long since independence from the Ottoman Empire. The inhabitants of the whole country of Greece highly respected this grand festival which originated in ancient Greece.
Moreover, the marathon is still derived from the victory of the ancient Greek coalition against the Persian army. Considering the relationship between Greece and the Ottoman Empire, it has a different political meaning in the minds of ordinary people and a layer of more importance for the upcoming Olympics. Big expectations.
Sheffield has also just arrived in Greece in a hurry. In fact, this Olympics has been somewhat different from that in history. As a member of the Olympics, Sheffield has to contribute to the international event anyway. For example, pull out a few American countries to participate in the race, and what countries like Honduras, Guatemala, and Panama are running together.
The safflower also needs green leaves, so that athletes from these countries lose a little more people, in order to show our heroic ability. Who does n’t want to watch the athletes of their own countries soar? As for how embarrassing the competitors in other countries, they should have been so embarrassing, and it is appropriate to set off the protagonist.
Probably because of the increase in the participation of American countries, this Olympic Games has added a little more international color than that of the parallel time and space, which also made the little Greek Kingdom feel the feeling of a little country coming to the North. Pretend to be humble and polite.
"These Greeks have to know one of my other important purposes? Will they turn their faces on the spot?" She just talked to a young Greek lady talking to each other, and she still had a smile on her face, and turned to board the carriage. , Came to a loft in a Mediterranean style, where guests are waiting.
Evelyn vigorously removed her head leaning on Sheffield's shoulder, and there was a little fatigue left on her handsome face. The long-distance sea life was also a kind of torment for her lady who had never been abroad.
"Aren't you comfortable ... or ..." Swallowing the words of hot water back into her mouth, Sheffield gently comforted Evelyn, "Get a rest when you get to the place."
"Sorry boss, my body has been inconvenient these days." Evelyn said a little shyly, apologizing for not being able to afford her salary.
"It's okay!" Sheffield sighed in the heart. It was really inconvenient. I wanted to experience the boss's treatment at sea. I thought it was too hasty. I wanted to cook raw rice after going ashore. It just caught up with others. inconvenient. You said that it would be fine to open your legs early. Do you have to think so much about it? Will it be inconvenient to get things done early?
Of course, doing so may bring another inconvenient consequence, but isn't it only after a few months? At that time he had returned home, what else? Looking forward and looking back brought such a bad result, Sheffield made up his mind, and definitely no longer fell twice with the second pit.
Nodded to the servant who greeted him, let his bodyguard and secretary wait downstairs. Sheffield went straight up the stairs to the second floor with the window open.
"Dear William Pasha, it's really nice to see you!" A man who couldn't see anything different from the Greeks when he saw the arrival of Sheffield, was very happy to extend his hand, full of Apologizing for being far away, politeness and respect coexist.
"Great Vizier is good?" Sheffield also smiled. Although the two met for the first time, they seemed familiar for a long time, and they were not a bit strange.
"Very well, Big Vizier ordered me to pay tribute to William Pasha, and express my admiration for Pasha's grandfather's good relationship with the empire." Ayo Bayan nodded again and greeted him with Ottoman courtesy.
Sheffield was not surprised that the Ottoman could hide in the Greek group. The so-called Ottomans of the Ottoman Empire are merely culturally Turkic. It is not a Turk in Chinese history. Turk is a very broad concept. From the Caucasus to the Mongolian Plateau, such a large ethnic group is all. The place where Ottomans started was outside the sight of the Tang Dynasty, and naturally there was nothing beaten by the Tang Dynasty. The rumor of the westward migration.
And in terms of blood, there is not much difference between the Turks in later generations and the native ethnic genes of the Eastern Mediterranean. Ottoman originated from the population of Turk, and it has been swallowed long ago. As long as a Turk knows Greek, no one can recognize it when he takes off his clothes.
Just like the Mongols, the Mongolian language is the same as the Xianbei, but compared with the extracted genes, compared with the tombs dug out during the Huns, the chromosomes are not much different. It can be considered as a descendant of the Huns.
"Great Vizier also wants to invite Pasha to sit in Istanbul." Ayo Bayan smiled cautiously and expressed his greetings from Prime Minister Ottoman.
"If there is time, I will definitely go." Sheffield nodded and agreed, "The United Company has always attached great importance to the friendship with Ottoman, which has been verified by time."
When the Sheffield family interacted with Ottoman Vizier, they adhered to the principle of non-interference in other countries' internal affairs. In fact, there is no such strength. A company wants to interfere with the prime minister of another country, which exceeds the ability of the joint company. What's more, the current United States of America is a younger brother among the imperialist powers, which has just been humiliated by the British Empire.
If the British were not eyeing South Africa, the United States is still hanging in the air by the British, and it is very uncomfortable to be dissatisfied. It's better to let the British press the ground and rub it harder.
The status of the United States of America in the eyes of Britain, France and Germany may not be as good as that of the current Ottoman Empire. People are better off than their ancestors. During the peak period, they slammed Europe, Asia and Africa and almost killed European countries. If it were not for Portugal and Spain to open up new routes and find the new continent to absorb energy to defeat it, maybe the victory or defeat of the two religions has already been decided.
It is basically impossible for the United States to do something to Ottoman. Moreover, the frequency of the replacement of Big Vizier is too diligent. The old imperialism is very close to Ottoman, and the United States can not be squeezed in.
While the entire Greek residents were preparing for the Olympic Games, a guest who came across the Atlantic from afar was talking and laughing with their hostility, and a burst of laughter burst out from time to time.
Persian carpets, Iraqi handmade products, and much more to talk about. It is still far from the Balkan Wars, and the current Ottoman heritage is still quite rich. Many territories, whether nominal or actual, are in the hands of Ottoman.
Sheffield can talk to each other a lot. Just like the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States is a younger brother, but in the face of Spain and Italy, it is not impossible to go up and down.
This is also to find a way out for the company ’s operation. If the Republican Party comes to power in the general election, high tariffs will inevitably come, because the United States is rich in resources and has the conditions for making cars behind closed doors. It is not that small territories play high tariffs because resources do not support development. , Almost equivalent to suicide.
But this is not necessarily good for the Sheffield family. The cage is closed, and everyone is sure to see the blood when they are fighting. He must find a gap to breathe. The yellow flower of Ottoman will have value at this time. In fact, the smuggling industry at home, an important transit point in Europe is the Ottoman Empire.
At present, the trend of the decline of the Ottoman Empire is obvious, and the relationship with Europe is definitely unfavorable. If you want to protect national industries with high tariffs, you can borrow from Ottoman to reduce similar tariffs.
This trick Sheffield understood, similar to the operation of the later Republic to dump steel from the United States against Vietnam. So contacting the heart and soul of Ottoman Vizier can be considered as an early preparation for the upcoming unknown, in case it can be used.
He didn't come out to do nothing, the same was for the development of the company, he was prepared to talk to Ottoman who was also oppressed by imperialism. The results of this negotiation are satisfactory.
"I don't know. Does Pasha need to be huh? The labor force enriches the construction of the farm?" Ayo Bayan mentioned another question and looked at Sheffield with his expectant eyes.
Sheffield looked sullen. He didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to mention this question. He asked nonchalantly, "What is the origin?"
"Armenians? This is a good thing for us. These Armenians do not accept the rule of the empire, which is more in line with the environment of the United States. If you don't want Armenians, it is like Serbia, Bulgaria, and Romania." Ayobayan He lowered his voice and said, "The Greeks are also good. Men can work, and women can also look beautiful."
"Well, can't I say that? Immigration has led to the development of the United States, and our people can voluntarily emigrate, and our United States can't exclude it!" Sheffield said dryly, and he turned around and forgot his own xenophobic wave, " Well, in order to make a friendship with Big Vizier, I reluctantly accepted it. Within a year, the number should not exceed 30,000, and it should be 20 to 30 years old, and there are slightly more women than men. "
"Pasha has helped Big Vizier again this time. I am assured that we will make good transit points. The tariffs on Ottoman and the United States have not been high!" Ayo Bayan sighed with relief. He finally finished the big shot. Entrusted.
"I don't count Pasha. I don't even have a piece of land. Even if it's a county, it's all yellow sand." Sheffield sighed. "Speaking of our family, we have a good relationship with the great Vizier. If you never give up on the requirements of Big Vizier, you can't come to be practical? Or should we be handed over to my family at the transfer station in the Persian Gulf, is this not very good? "
"Kuwait? I'm willing to advise Grand Vizier for Pasha." Ayo Bayan assured immediately.
"No, I want to buy it for real money. I'm not a British robber." Sheffield held out her fingers and shook her, saying that she and the shameless British were not the same kind of people, although their family also immigrated from the UK.
