1855 United States Tycoon

Just after the new Spanish government sent 25,000 soldiers to Cuba to suppress the rebellion, Scrooge's McDonald Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company welcomed two customers. The arrival of the two customers was only two hours apart, but the treatment they received was completely different.

The first guest was a representative of "Free Cuba". He expressed his intention to buy a batch of drugs including Dali pills, sulfonamides, heroin, aspirin and the like to MacDonald Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, but it is regrettable that , He lacks cash. Well, in his hand, there is only sugar. Of course, if these sugars are in New York, that would be great, because now the prices of sugar are rising all over the world. It's just that the damn sugar is still in Cuba, how to get them out is a problem.

"It's no problem." said the Cuban named Garipat. "We can send them from Cuba by ship to Florida. There is no problem at all, but if they are to be sent to New York, our ship will too small."

"Will the Spaniards block you?" asked Mr. Reid, who was talking to him on behalf of the McDonald Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company. "As far as I know, you are all very slow fishing boats. , It is impossible to get rid of the search of the Spanish warship."

"Ah, don't worry about it, at least until Spain sends more troops to arrive, their current fleet in Cuba will not really come out to perform the blockade mission." Gary Pat laughed, "If they find us at sea We’ll find them on the ground.” Seeing Reid didn’t seem to understand, he went on to explain, “Now the Spaniards on the island know that before their reinforcements arrive, they simply There is no strength to deal with us. And for them, it is obvious that after their reinforcements arrive, their mission is completed. Before that, the calmer Cuba is on the surface, the better they can do it. The evaluation they can get is also. The better, the more promising they will be when they return to Spain in the future. Therefore, they are now trying to negotiate with us and want to hold us down. At this time, as long as we don’t take the initiative to attack them, they will definitely not dare to intercept us. Ship. Besides, it is our people who deliver the goods, so what should you worry about?"

"So how much sugar do you have and how many drugs do you plan to buy?"

This problem hits Gary Pat’s weakness. They have a lot of sugar, but they need to sell more. Well, in addition to medicine, they also need weapons, training, and a lot of money to spend. This sugar is not enough at all.

"If you have problems with financing, you can go to McDonald Venture Capital Bank to talk to them." Reid said.

A few days later, "Free Cuba" granted a series of rights, including the right to use the port, and the mining right in Holguin Province (where there is a world-class nickel mine. Nickel is extremely important to the steel industry and can be Improve the mechanical properties of steel, increase the strength, toughness and heat resistance of steel, increase the corrosion resistance, acid resistance and magnetic permeability of steel, etc. Nickel can also refine the grain, improve the hardenability of steel and increase the hardness of steel In addition, in the thermal processing of steel, nickel has the function of preventing the harmful effects of copper on the metal surface. It can be said that without nickel, there will be no high-quality steel. In later generations, after the rabbit and the bear have separated, the hair The bear didn’t use nickel for rabbits, which made the rabbits unable to produce armor steel for tanks for a while. After that, they gritted their teeth and used rare earths instead of nickel to make armored steels. As long as this nickel mine is controlled, the cost and quality of McDonald’s steel will not be comparable to other countries in the future!) As a collateral condition, a huge loan of nearly one million U.S. dollars from McDonald’s Venture Capital Bank Of course, the money was directly transferred to the accounts of McDonald’s Infantry Arms Company and McDonald’s Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company without even asking for it from the McDonald Venture Capital Bank.

Unlike Cubans, Spaniards who are not completely out of money in their pockets have a closed door. When it comes to buying heroin, sulfa, aspirin and the like, MacDonald Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals still says it’s okay, but When they mentioned that they would buy Dali pills in large quantities, McDonald Chemical and Pharmaceutical told them that they had been unable to provide the Spaniards with such a large number of Dali pills because of too many orders and saturation of production.

However, after rejecting the Spaniards for this reason, the New York Daily Times controlled by Scrooge published an article titled "Cuba 9/11: Rebellion or Desperate Cry?" "The report openly declared that this is not a rebellion, but a desperate resistance to autocratic tyranny.

"The demands made by these rebels are just the following:

They hope that the government that governs them will be elected by them, rather than randomly dispatched by someone thousands of miles away who doesn't even know what Cuba is like. Isn't this a very valid reason?

They hope that the tax collected from their labor can be used (at least part of it can be used) to improve the conditions in Cuba, and can be used to serve the people who created it, instead of being loaded on a ship and transported to a few places. Thousands of miles away, for some Cuban people who don’t even know what they look like to squander. Isn't this taken for granted?

They hope that the evil slavery system can be abolished, so that everyone can enjoy the inalienable freedom granted by God. Rather than being artificially divided into three or sixty-nine classes due to issues such as race, origin, etc., they were deprived of their freedom and became slaves. Isn’t it God’s will to abolish the evil slavery?

They hope that when they stay in their own homes, they can be as safe as a king staying in their own castle. His safety and dignity should not be subject to any illegal threats. No one can live without any Violation of his freedom and dignity under the conditions permitted by evidence and necessary laws. Rather than as it is now, the police can arrest a Cuban at will just because it is not pleasing to the eye; soldiers can enter the Cuban’s home and take their belongings at will, just because they want it. Isn't such a request reasonable?

A Cuban friend of mine told us that it was not that they had never used a peaceful way to petition the Spaniards. Even when General Bolivar’s revolution swept across Latin America, the Cuban people who love peace still listened to the Spaniards. Their voices were imaginative.

However, what they are waiting for is repeated deception and suppression. When General Bolivar was victorious, the Spaniards also made Sacred promises to the Cuban people, and once the danger passed, they put these promises aside, and even intensified their oppression of the Cuban people. Today, the Cuban people resisted intolerably. He told me that this was actually just a cry of despair. Compared to Spain, Cuba is too weak. Now, the Spanish colonial authorities have begun to tell them that they hope to negotiate with them and are willing to give them some freedom. But he was very worried. Is the Spaniard's expression now another deception? Will it be another massacre waiting for them?

Such worries were not unfounded. Just a few days after the incident broke out, representatives of the Spanish government approached the Macdonald Chemical and Pharmaceutical Company and demanded a large number of orders for military bolus pills. I believe everyone can feel the malice contained in this purchase...

MacDonald Chemicals and the company rejected the offer of door-to-door business. And it is said that McDonald’s Infantry Arms Company also rejected the Spaniard’s order. Here I would like to pay high tribute to these two companies. Because they made a choice between money and conscience that we United States are proud of.

However, there are indications that the Spanish's suppression of the Cuban people is already on the line. The failure of these two purchases is impossible to stop them. To stop them, the entire America and the entire civilized world must unite together and say no to the Spanish colonists with one voice!

Cuba is a close neighbor of the United States. The demands of the Cuban people today are essentially the same as those of our sages at the Continental Congress in Philadelphia many years ago. Should we watch a humanitarian disaster that tramples on human rights unfolding beside us?

Some people may say that Cuba’s affairs are not within the sovereignty of our United States, and this does not do ours. But don't forget that we also received selfless help back then. Faced with the prospect that the most talented human rights of Sacred will be brutally trampled on, can we sit on the sidelines with peace of mind? Indeed, the sovereignty of every country is inviolable, because it stems from the authorization of all its citizens. But there is one power that is higher than the power of the state, and that is the human rights guaranteed by the Supreme God! When the human rights granted by gods are brutally trampled on, sovereignty should be avoided first, because human rights are superior to sovereignty! America is America's America! "

Beginning with this article, the newspapers of the Scrooge system and the Morgan system were both fully energized to report on the Cuban storm, and the reporting directions of these newspapers were almost one-sided leaning towards Cuba. In such an atmosphere, the United States Congress even put forward a proposal to ask the government to pay attention to the situation in Cuba and try to prevent possible humanitarian disasters.

"Scrooge, are we really not dealing with the Spaniards? That would cost a lot of money." Dorothea frowned and looked distressed.

"Of course, but in fact, we can't make much money, just like those drugs? The Prussian just ordered another batch with us. Well, from the information I found, it was actually for the Spaniards. I bought it. The situation with guns is the same. Moreover, the Prussian government has extended its hands to Spain. This will definitely drive the French crazy, which will greatly benefit our ultimate goal."
