Chapter 18: The consequences of entrepreneurial failure

"Compared with the situation in the Caribbean, the current domestic situation is only a minor issue." Annabel is not blind to the economic depression, but only has a larger goal, and naturally hopes that his heirs will also have a broader vision, "William What you should think about now is that the situation in the Caribbean Sea can benefit from it, and it is worthy of your family foundation. Do you think this time? Is there any effect on the British demonstration? "
"Yes!" Sheffield replied directly without thinking. He can't remember the United States fighting against Britain because of Venezuela's affairs. There is no impression in his mind. It must be that this matter was finally resolved peacefully.
"Cause!" Annabel asked indecisively. This is not a simple judgment question, only right and wrong. Although she has an intergenerational sentiment towards Sheffield, she still has to test her major problems.
Sheffield hesitated for a while, and he certainly could not say that because of the last peaceful settlement in history, furthermore, some people had interfered with history before him, thinking about the international situation, and said slowly, "Gentlemen of the British Empire, not yet As for the general knowledge of the mud legs of our United States, the reason why many people in the country are clamoring is that there is a bare foot who is not afraid of wearing shoes. This kind of psychology. On the contrary, for the British, there are too many places that need to be paid attention to in the entire world. The situation in the Far East is far more important than what is currently happening in the Caribbean. "-
The world's hegemony, there are also many things in the British Empire. A country in charge of so many places must be a matter of importance. For the current British Empire, the most important place is naturally Europe opposite the English seafood. Germany, France and Russia do not have an oil-saving lamp. After the unification of Germany, the national power skyrocketed, and William II, who had just ascended the throne, was ambitious and wanted to lead Germany to the top of the world. It is needless to say that in France, the traditional feud of the British at that time started from the Hundred Years War of Britain and France. After seven years of war and the Napoleonic War, although it is temporarily peaceful with Britain, who knows what will happen in the future.
As for the Russian Empire, the leader of the Holy Alliance, the backing of the monarchy, and the name of the European roller, it is also worrying enough. In addition to Europe, there are many important areas for the United Kingdom. The Suez Canal in the Middle East, the pearl of the empire in South Asia, India, and even things in the Far East are far ahead of American affairs.
Now Britain has to care about everything and think about its own interests. The problem is that the rivals of the British Empire are not so weak compared with Britain. This is completely different from the opponents of the United States more than a hundred years later. Although the opponents of the later United States are also very powerful, they all appear one by one, whether it is the Soviet Union or the Republic, the opponents that appeared at different times at that time. Now in the UK, any of the three countries of Germany, France and Russia deserves the full response of the UK. The proximity of any two countries makes the UK very nervous.
As far as the Caribbean is concerned, the United States and the United Kingdom are quite different in importance. For the United States, the Americas are the Americas of the Americans. Is it true that President Monroe ’s words are empty words? As far as the British are concerned, Venezuela doesn't know how much of the top level of diplomacy is in the sequence, and no one knows. Even if the goal is not achieved, the British will not lose much.
'The British military is much stronger than the United States. I hope that it will not cause conflicts. In fact, I understand that from the military's point of view, the demonstrations in the United States are no different from the eggs and stones, but if you look at the newspapers recently involved, How is it written above? 'Annabelle took out a recent newspaper with the headline that Venezuela is a poor friend in the Western Hemisphere. The compassionate attitude is in stark contrast with the high-level English language, which makes people feel a sympathy for the weak.
"The American newspapers of the past years have so much attainment in scrubbing?" Sheffield took a glance at the newspaper and grabbed a few key points. If he knew he was in the United States, he thought he had seen it. What about an anti-imperialist and anti-feudal newspaper? Sure enough, the world is the same in this respect. When the national will is reflected, a neutral and objective set is put away.
But it can also be seen that this is the Federal Government's momentum, and the government at this time needs the support of the people. However, Sheffield still felt that the British Empire should not be in conflict with the United States because of the conflict in the Caribbean. After thinking about it, Sheffield knew that it must be Lafayette who thought it was profitable. After all, the Sheffield family is very international, and Annabell ’s family started with the African labor force to expand internationally on both sides of the Atlantic. It is not surprising that trade has this vision.
"Grandma, in fact, compared to Britain, you should know that the United States does not have this strength, but no matter what the result of Venezuela this time, if domestic belligerent sentiment is mobilized, it will inevitably find an opponent in recent years, I Personally, I believe that the United States will definitely start a war in recent years and find an opponent to practice. "Sheffield bowed his head slightly and described his thoughts in front of those in power at home." This opponent will certainly not be too strong. The militant sentiment is vented. "
Even if the United States wanted to swear that he was not a soft persimmon, but it did not delay, he first asked for a soft persimmon.
"It's quite new, you think who the United Congress chooses as the opponent." Annabel is actually not interested in Sheffield's judgment, but this judgment will be quite novel.
"The prestigious country is not a very strong country, only Spain is left? If this time and the UK can be resolved peacefully, I believe that the United States Congress chooses to move to Spain." Sheffield said in conjunction with the current international situation, various propaganda The machine made public opinion about its external expansion. But while the United States is preparing to expand overseas, the entire world has been divided up for the old colonial powers. Anglo-French-German-Russian can't afford each one, and the United States will not treat these countries.
"Cuba is indeed unstable over the past few years!" Sheffield would have said casually, and Annabel would have listened casually, but after the heir mentioned such a fresh conclusion. Annabel felt that things might develop like this. Under the eyelids can get benefits, the opponent is not a very strong country, it seems that there is only Spain left yesterday. And just now, the Cuban protests were once again suppressed by Spain, half a month ago.
In fact, three years later, after the United States prepared everything, the Maine incident was launched. Its degree of justice in the sky was brighter than the excuse of the Third Reich striking Poland. The United States naturally dares to take the initiative to stolen goods, which naturally shows that it has been planned for a long time in the past, and Ken is not a temporary intention.
Annabel already felt that it was time to inquire about Cuba ’s movements, but Sheffield was slightly lowered and politely said, "Grandmother, I should go back to university now to finish my studies, although they are all in my own place, which can last a long time It ’s not good to leave, I will graduate this year. "
"Okay, your college life is over, no accidents, you will definitely graduate in May, and I will say hello to the board." Annabel nodded in recognition. "Take care of everything and prepare to go home. Inherit the family business. "This is like saying, if you fail to start a business. There is only one way left to inherit the family business. How to listen to how there is a sense of violation.
