Chapter 347: What is the truth?

Compared with many peers who were questioned for antitrust laws in later generations, Sheffield today can be said to be very arrogant. He did not take these congressional masters into consideration. If they were to be replaced by a Soviet system, the slave owners would definitely not have I'm so afraid, I'm afraid that I can't kneel fast enough.
In a country with too much procedural justice, this kind of thing will happen, just as a gang is something that will always exist in the United States. After hardly asking the Republican lawmakers to shut up, Sheffield took the time to order a cigar, which is boring. Waiting for the next round of inquiries, I took out my pocket watch and looked at the time, indicating that I was busy, and I would like to end something quickly.
But this act of not taking human life in the eyes has also angered many people. Although many people in the society are dissatisfied with the rich, they are the first time they see people like Sheffield today. "This is Congress, please pay attention to the occasion."
"Is there a law that prohibits smoking cigars in Congress? If not, this is my freedom. Of course, many parliamentarians are here today. You can pass a law now to ban smoking cigars here, and then arrest me "" Sheffield said very understandingly. If you want the decree, you can write one.
"William, after all, this involves tens of thousands of lives." A well-meaning member of the parliament began to remind Sheffield to pay attention to his attitude. After all, this is no longer a private company matter, and politics has been involved.
"Of course I am very saddened by the inestimable loss of life, but if there is, there is no, there is no, it is the responsibility of the joint company. I will never evade and I am ready to meet all challenges. But this is back. The origin just started, the collapse of the Jiatong Lake dam must be investigated clearly. This is definitely not a simple accident. It may be related to the local anti-American forces. If I have any responsibility? I have also thought about these days. a lot of."
Sheffield sighed and pretended to grieve, "Because of local environmental reasons, black workers’ bodies are more suitable for tropical construction environments, which reduces the possibility of yellow fever, which led to the company convening when recruiting workers. A large number of black employees are also involved in recruiting workers in Puerto Rico. It is also related to illness. But I miscalculated one reason, that is, the morality of the two batches of employees themselves. "
"After the construction started, the relationship between the two batches of workers and the local residents of Panama was very tense. On this issue, it seems that these people are currently citizens under the rule of the United States. The local person in charge is too partial to our workers, so Panama residents have long been Dissatisfaction, the conflict has not subsided, if this conflict caused the tragedy, it is also common sense. "
"Do you have evidence to say this?" Sheffield said just now, and some lawmakers stood up and asked solemnly, if the dam was really exploded, the matter would be serious.
"I have no evidence as to whether the dam was attacked and collapsed. This will wait until the results of the investigation. However, although not all the crimes committed by the construction workers against the Panamanians, the local responsible person has also notified the country of less than 200 cases. "Sheffield said in a hurry." Theft, robbery, rape, and murder have all happened, but I was pressed down. "
There was an awkward silence in the entire Congress, and many lawmakers felt that Sheffield was a little too honest. If something went wrong, it was logically even retaliated, as if the Panamanians had done nothing wrong. But this involved tens of thousands of lives. Is it possible for the United States to publicly announce what these workers have done in Panama and first apologize to the Panamanian government? how can that be!
Roosevelt saw that things were a bit off track and had to ask in person, "Mr. William, the cause of the matter is no longer important. I want to know that as the actual boss of the American Canal Management Company, the number of employees under your opponent should be Understand, how much do you estimate the loss should be? "
"Forty or fifty thousand people? I can't estimate too accurate numbers!" Sheffield replied with uncertain tone, "Because Puerto Rico and black workers are not the same place after all, Puerto Rico hasn't occupied for a long time. The language is not the same, so they are afraid to start conflicts, and they build their resident areas separately. The quake-hit areas are those of black workers. The number is about 50,000. "
Fifty thousand people? Hearing this number, Rao is that these politicians also think that they are well-informed, and they are taken aback by this number. Since the Civil War, they have never heard such a large number of deaths. Even if it was just the end of the Boer War, the British did not seem to have lost so many people after fighting for so long?
This number is too shocking. Many members of the law heard a gaffe crying out loudly. God with different tone of voice, one after another in Congress. It was just that some people were scared and others were scared. Fortunately, they were all black.
Sheffield was not blushing and heartbeating, this figure was enough to attack Pearl Harbor ten times. The Japanese navy rushed out of the nest and bombarded Pearl Harbor indiscriminately. The combined casualties of American soldiers were less than 4,000. The slave owners admired themselves a bit, and were able to accept so many deaths.
Even Roosevelt was shocked to hear this number. He did not expect that such a heavy loss would happen. Looking at Sheffield's calm look, he was shocked by the doubt in his heart. This calm seemed like He planned the same.
wrong! No one would dare to kill so many people at once. There will be no such people in this world, not to mention businessmen who seek profit and avoid harm. Businessmen who make money as their first purpose will never be so risky. Things.
"Now it seems that we must determine the truth of the matter immediately, and we cannot let these many citizens die in vain." Immediately, a member of parliament recovered from the shock. Even if the black man died, he must give an explanation to the citizen class.
"Send someone to set up an investigative team and rush to Panama!" President Roosevelt took out the authority of the president and concluded that "the truth of the collapse of the Gatong Lake dam must be understood. If it is deliberately destroyed, the Panamanian government must give Let us explain! "
The system of the United States is not inefficient in all matters. As far as the current situation is concerned, the efficiency of the congressmen is still very high. Immediately passed the proposal to send a survey team, which shows a very efficient side.
So far, it has nothing to do with Sheffield. Two hours later, the slave owner walked out of Congress and returned to his employees.
"Boss, you're just coming out, aren't those old men awkward for you?" The bodyguards greeted carefully asked, but did not deliberately avoid the congressional security staff not far away.
"On them, what do you want to do to me? What can they do?" Sheffield had some stiff necks. "From start to finish, the United Company is a victim. This is a fact, not because I have some personal property. You will be treated unfairly, and everything will be fair. "
Outside of the heart of the modern Roman Empire, the slave-owners spoke a lot of words, and each word was intended to make this heart myocardial infarction.
In the heart, from the president to the legislators, they are fulfilling their obligations. This obligation is to stop opposing for opposition, unite and make things clear first.
As for Sheffield himself, he simply came to answer questions and answer questions. After answering, he could leave, and wait until the day when the results of the investigation came out to echo the federal government's investigation.
Now! The slave owners are so busy every day, preparing to go to New York ’s Rockefeller Estate to rest and rest. Before leaving, they ordered to say hello to the excrement workers. It is time for these excretion workers to contribute. In the conflict between the workers and the Panamanian residents, this man's blood buns, the slave owner has not eaten enough.
If the workers who died were all white, let alone bloodbreads. Anyone who took a dungeon would have no objection. The newspaper office where he was smashed is light, and personal safety cannot be skyrocketed. But the dead man is a black man, and he can still use the question. In addition to the operation of the female boxer last year, the issue of black people has attracted public attention. In addition, the spread of political jokes about black people is very wide. It can be said that since the thirty years after the Civil War, the public opinion on black people has never been Not so harsh.
The criticism of the black people, the excavator who is good at making up and making up will certainly not disappoint him, and now it is just a time for intermission. The joint company soon issued a statement explaining why using blacks as workers, each of which is very reasonable, such as supporting blacks' self-care ability, allowing blacks to improve their living standards through work, and blacks adapting more to the local environment.
The joint company ’s statement also aroused discussion about the use of black people. Some newspapers have made very explicit comments.
Facts have proved that black people do not have the ability to survive in modern society. If they are not unconstrained, they will not Will provoke revenge from the Panamanians. "
The New Orleans Morning News immediately published an article to refute, "Even if this is the case, it is not the right time to report. Even if they are criminals, they are also criminals of the United States. They cannot just die in Panama."
The New Orleans Morning News seems to be refuting, but in fact it has confirmed the definition of black people in these newspapers, and it has admitted that it is black people's uncontrolled retaliation! And the busy and overwhelmed Washington, did not find this spoiled public opinion for the first time. When it was discovered, it had become the consensus of many people.
The formed investigation team has set off from the port and went to Panama to investigate the truth.
