Chapter 7: Commercial reputation
The United States of America faces the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Great Plains in the middle. There is the Mississippi River, which is conducive to the development of animal husbandry for planting. There are five Great Lakes in the north, which is conducive to the development of dairy storage industry. To the east is the Gulf of Mexico, with warm and humid air flowing in.
Sheffield now has a more difficult place, that is, to look at the data and compare the history interfered with by his predecessors with the history in his original mind to judge the impact of the extra two years of the Civil War. In fact, the extra The impact has diminished to Texas, the southern United States, and the entire United States. As for the impact on the world, it is not that great.
It can only be said that Sheffield has very good political relations with many countries. Among them, the Sheffield family has good relations with countries that cannot be beaten by the British Empire, Imperial Russia, Austro-Hungarian Empire and Ottoman. These countries not only have bad relations, but are hostile to each other. The British Empire is actually easy to understand.
To know that the Confederation of the Civil War, the biggest hope is to count on the British and French interference. The Sheffield family obviously participated in the Civil War as a British spokesperson. As for the Emperor Russia, Austria-Hungary and Ottoman, it is because of the relationship established by the sale of population.
Before the Civil War, Annabel directly used all the fleets in her hands and gave up business in Africa, buying Poles and Ukrainians from the Russians, buying Yugoslavs from the Ottomans, and buying ethnic minorities from Austria-Hungary. Only led to the current population ratio of Texas.
"In this way, the stability of several Eastern European empires should be improved a lot." Sheffield smiled to herself, if it is among martial arts, it should be regarded as martial arts such as star-falun Dafa. Everything is affordable, "But is this globalization?"
Things in Europe have nothing to do with him, it can only be said that the foundation is very good, and I can't take care of it now. Focus on the United States first, with the geographic location of the United States, excluding the sparsely populated Canada, there are three western countries that can show their skills, that is, the three coastlines of east and west, based on the development of the Gulf of Mexico at the foot, it has certainly not been as good for a long time Facing the east coast of Europe.
New York and England, France and France are across the sea, and Texas can take care of Cuba, Haiti, and Colombia. The potential of both parties is not at the same level. In addition to these two coastlines, California ’s potential facing the Pacific Ocean has not yet been realized, and it ca n’t be realized now. After all, Hawaii must be annexed so that the entire Pacific Ocean is completely open to the United States.
"To establish an advantage for Yankee, the West Coast must have an advantage, but under the eyes, it is not without opportunities!" Sheffield spreading out the map of Central America, how to think that the Spanish flag is dazzling, Dexa The full potential of Slovakia is realized, and Spain must be let go.
I did n’t even control my own doorstep, and I still talked about the West Coast. In this assignment, Sheffield analyzed the importance of the three coastlines and the fact that the current Atlantic coast is a big one. Tease the dog easily.
"Master William, I have one thing to say!" Martin sneaked close, lowering his voice. "A group of Mexican dancers came to Arlington. Many people said it was interesting. Would you like to check it out?" "
"What dancer?" Sheffield, with her dog mouth open, didn't care, after all, the little puppies in her hand were a little bit dissatisfied. However, Chinese soil dogs are good at this, and will not bite people. The docile, loyal, friendly, and smart Sheffield dogs should have these characteristics. Of course, the average American is now interested in cultivating brave dogs.
"I heard that it's a dancer called Rumba. Does the young master want to go? I'll prepare the carriage." Martin was very eager to try, and it seemed he couldn't wait.
"Rumba?" Sheffield raised his head slightly, as if it were a kind of Latin dance. Isn't Latin dance a kind of dance full of body cues? This thing is pretty good, but in the later generations, parents will never let their children learn. Children seem to have a very high urge to dance Latin dance.
"You're afraid you can't get in, right, just remembered to pull me!" Sheffield glanced at Martin, saying that black people are absolutely not stupid, and their brains are very easy to use. Don't mention that everything is normal in school. Turned his head and said, "It is not impossible to learn and learn about the passionate Latin American culture. You know, I am curious about the whole world."
It is still far away from the black equal rights. In some places, Martin is not surprised that this is not a problem that the Sheffield family can solve with one operation. Of course, this operation is enough to make the Sheffield family become a savior in the hearts of many black people in this era.
"The carriage is ready! Martin knows that Master, the most appreciated is the passionate dance, Texas folklore is conservative!" Martin is my fault, Sheffield is a public official, and takes everything On yourself.
Inside Sheffield Manor, a man and a woman sat face-to-face, looking at someone who was not known, and Isabella stared at each other and lost interest for a moment, "It is also a good thing to hear that Mr. Rockefeller is about to retire I ’m very surprised by your arrival. It ’s amazing to know that Texas is different from the bustling New York City and can be remembered. ”
"Miss Isabella, everyone knows that if you want to accomplish something from Texas, you must go through your family ’s approval, this lone star state, which originally ousted the operations of Austin and Houston, Republic of Texas. , It is very beautiful. "
The visitor pointed directly to the independence of Texas, which had only 50,000 people, and soon the Sheffield family who moved from their family was crushed by immigration. Together with the relocated Louisiana plantation owner, the Xie was established. The status of the Field family.
Isabella pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, "Our family is only farming, not comparable to Mr. Rockefeller, who defeated all opponents at once and took the entire oil industry revenue in hand. Although everyone knows that business is nothing more than buying low and buying high Selling may not have done much of this feat, and it ’s not too much praise to be able to occupy Wall Street later. "
"Your family has only defeated two opponents. They are the independent fathers of Lone Star State." James converged and smiled, turning his words. "Not much to say. Standard Oil wants to cooperate with the Sheffield family. The entire Texas Your home is the most suitable partner. "
"It's the whole South!" Isabel stretched out her index finger and shook it twice, but didn't agree to it. "However, given the commercial reputation of Standard Oil, we need some time to consider."
"Business reputation!" James slaps his thigh and can't help laughing. "Who doesn't know that Mr. Rockefeller is a famous philanthropist. He provided the main funds to a black women's university in Atlanta."
"Sir is reminding me not to forget Atlanta's hatred." Isabella nodded and looked back, "You succeeded in reminding me of this."
