Chapter 11: My model
Judging from the age, these people should be born after the Civil War, should be the second or third generation of each family, maybe they were all born in Brazil. Being able to take a trip to New Orleans by boat can be said to be determined. It can be seen that the pressure facing Brazil is quite large.
"Still talking?" Sheffield's look in the front was rather breezy, and he seemed to have no interest in the far southern hemisphere. It had nothing to do with himself. He just accepted the instructions of Lafayette and came over to greet visitors from afar. He was only 16 years old himself, and naturally he could not empathize with the revolutionary friendship of the Civil War.
"Yeah, I'm still talking!" Gergan said in a low voice, and he was still a little bit depressed about the possible heavy losses. This was the first time he experienced this kind of thing.
Sheffield nodded, but wanted to export comfort, but he had just met with these people, and he was not too enthusiastic to show. Especially the situation facing these people right now, if he is too happy, it really can't be justified.
But Sheffield was also very hard to hold back. Judging from the final result, the Sheffield family was considered to have been looted because of the Civil War, but this was only superficial. Because other plantation owners emigrated to Brazil, Sheffield also accepted a lot of the legacy they left, plus the particularity of Texas, and ultimately kept the foundation from being liquidated.
Texas is too important and too special. Of course there are many plantation owners who immigrated to Brazil, but there are also many left. Their development after the war is obviously not as good as the Sheffield family, and it is already long ago. Widened the gap. It has formed a pattern in which the southern remnants are headed by Annabelle.
As a result of the Civil War, the victory in the north is unquestionable, but the high-rise in the south has not been liquidated. The original plantation owner in the south is divided into two parts, and some choose to immigrate to Brazil, which is the guest he now welcomes. The rest stays locally, and they all have a good relationship with the Sheffield family.
"Louisiana, what a great place." Gael felt when he came to Oak Manor, and the men and women who came with him nodded, apparently quite satisfied with the environment here.
Louisiana has a gentle terrain, and the Mississippi River runs through the eastern part of the state. On both banks of the river are broad alluvial plains, and a wide delta is formed at the mouth of the river and extends into the Gulf of Mexico.
It is now February. Louisiana is hot and humid in summer and mild in winter. The temperature is now very comfortable. No one commented on the climate here, and was obviously very satisfied with the environment.
Although it was the first time he set foot on the land here, he did not consider himself as an outsider. This is completely understood by Sheffield. The landlord returned to the village group to go home. Will you ask the farmers to agree? No, now these people who come here from Brazil are similar in nature to the repatriation group. This place used to be their home.
Who are these people, the descendants of slave owners who eat human bones? Moreover, these people who returned from Brazil can be said to have fought two wars, and the passing smoke is actually more than that of the Sheffield family who stayed in the country.
At Oak Manor, Sheffield made people prepare food and catch the wind and dust for guests from far away. It is also very sincere. The whole Louisiana was originally part of New France and was influenced by Spain. So Sheffield prepared French Even though he does n’t have much knowledge of food, it ’s valuable.
In addition, French cuisine itself represents Western cuisine, especially compared with the British Empire in the dark cooking world on the other side of the strait. It is also the gap between diamonds and sand.
Such sincerity is on the one hand to follow the arrangement of Lafayette, on the other hand he is not exclusive to these immigrants who are now preparing to emigrate, and it is uncomfortable. With these people ’s capital, they want to return to the United States. It ’s a breeze. Do n’t look at the current xenophobic sentiment in the United States, but it ’s also a matter of who is excluded.
At any time, the rich are more popular than the poor, and these immigrants to Brazil want to come back without any difficulty, so the question is, where do they go back? South or North?
Although the hatred of the Civil War has already passed through the Democratic Party, it proves that the way of hatred will be outdated in every election, and the current voters have not eaten this set. The pimples that remain in my heart are not eliminated so quickly, especially in the South, but the defeated, the memory of the defeated will be more profound.
In the south after the war, Sheffield had the best development, but it couldn't always be a leader in so many industries in the north. The introduction of foreign aid is also imperative. Otherwise, the gap between North and South is huge. Even if Sheffield stands in the south, what is the point? In addition, in so many states in the South, Sheffield ca n’t do anything in half of the United States. The Texas Legion can save the legacy of the Union Army. How long can it last? People are forgetful.
"The grandmother's meaning is obvious. The manor you left behind in immigration to Brazil has been taken care of for many years. Our family is also welcome to your return. Everyone was a companion standing in a trench." Jiu Guosan After five tastes, Sheffield holding the stemware shakes the wine in the glass, slowly opening, "You have been away for many years, the United States has changed dramatically, and today ’s Brazil and the United States ca n’t By the same token. To be clear, even being a millionaire is far better in the United States than elsewhere in the entire America. "
"You don't count as immigrants when you come back. Here is your home. Look, this piece of manor is where our fathers lived. It is all you need to run to Brazil in disgrace?" Sheffield Station He stood up and pointed his finger to the north, and said, "It's ashamed when we come to Brazil. Can't we beat them in the way of Yankee? Only if they have money, do we have no money?"
"William, I probably understand what you mean. The Sheffield family treats us as always, and the family has me thinking about this. It has been 30 years since we left the United States. Let's come back and look at the environment first." Gail pointed Sheffield toasted and signalled, "Now that we have seen the attitude of the Sheffields, we can feel that things should go smoothly."
"Everyone used to be a trench partner, and the Sheffield family would naturally not do something to be sorry for the partner." Sheffield pointed to the light bulb swear and swears that he is righteous and bounty, and this term can now be used on him.
Gail and a group of men and women nodded one after another. There were even two girls bragging about Sheffield. What kind of grace is not under the commander of the Texas Army, it is indeed a model for us Dixie and so on.
