My America
Chapter 255: Canal to hand
Relying on the British losing an adult in the Boer War, the negotiations between the two parties at the Oak Manor were conducted in a cordial and friendly manner, Sheffield expressed his cordial greetings to the French guests from afar, naturally the British suffered a defeat in the Boers The act in the hand started, which aroused the favor of the French.
Looking at the loss of the arrogant British Empire, the current United States and France still share a common language. As long as profits are in place, do n’t let Sheffield scold the British, even if he scolds the federal government. What role does the federal government have? Isn't this the role?
"You are Harry's child? It is a young man with great ideas." A young woman with a charming charm greeted her very friendly after seeing Sheffield. She looked very friendly.
"Do you know my father?" Sheffield looked at the exotic lady, already guessing.
"It didn't take long for me to know, but he is a very charming person." The young woman smiled with emotion.
Is this efficiency a bit unnatural? Sheffield smiled on his face, and his heart was full of complicated behavior. An old man who was almost fifty, had such great charm? Is Caihua so important?
"It's not the first time I heard people praise him!" Sheffield skimmed the question and invited the young woman to take a seat.
"Actually, I think you are more attractive than anyone else!" Anne whispered Sheffield after seeing no one around her. "In fact, most people are not attracted by your father's people, but the financial resources they show. This It is also the impression many people have of Americans, but you are different, I love you! "
He gave a slight peck at Sheffield, with a little encouragement.
"What do you want so many messy women to do, I am a person who focuses on quality." Sheffield leaned back and walked into the Oak Manor while holding Anne's hand. "The old man is shameless, I am different, I am Shameless and noble. "
"I like your serious and serious attitude!" Annie's face showed a big smile, expressing her appreciation.
After entering the Oak Manor, Annie managed all the things in the manor as the hostess, and after busy, let the two parties negotiate in a comfortable environment.
On the Sheffield side, including representatives of McHale, Gael, and more than a dozen Southern Dixie companies, the French Canal Company also appeared several heavyweight board members and began negotiations around the transfer of the Panama Canal. There is no representative of Colombia, and it has nothing to do with Colombia.
When the time comes, nod your head to admit it. When anyone has seen the British and French betray the Czech Republic, the Czech representative is present, and you can attend when signing. Both sides are democratic countries. When discussing democracy, what kind of excitement did Colombia come up with? Just shut your mouth and do n’t delay them discussing democracy.
Now it ’s nothing more than money. Sheffield ’s side is nothing more than a price reduction. The French naturally want to sell a good price. The interests of both parties are opposite.
"We have already sent people to understand the local environment in Panama. To be honest, the construction is extremely difficult, and the local climate is not acceptable to ordinary workers. You should be clear about this if you are a teenager. Even if the canal is successfully excavated, it will take a long time, and it is not known when the cost will be recovered. "McHale first spoke of the various disadvantages of excavating the canal in Panama.
This is not slandering. All disadvantages exist objectively. France has been operating in Panama for so long. They all feel the same difficulties as McHale cited.
But the interests of the two sides are different, and the young woman who just greeted Sheffield soon said, "Some things can be calculated with money, and some things cannot be measured with money. If the Panama Canal is in the hands of Americans, yes The world influence of the United States is a huge improvement. After defeating the Spanish Empire, the United States is not a real world power. "
"We are a private enterprise, and the state will naturally do it. But for us, profit is always the first. If profit is not important, the Canal Company can continue to operate with the support of the Paris government. Why can't the Panama Canal project continue? The problem is simple, that is, investing huge profits indefinitely. "Gale shook his finger and shook," Like the Canal Company, we are also responsible to shareholders, don't we let us Tell the participating shareholders, do we use your money to run a failed project? "
Both of you said something to me, and forgot about the shameful and friendly atmosphere in the beginning because of Britain. When it comes to profits, any friendship or tradition can be temporarily forgotten.
Sheffield looked at the young woman who had refuted several times, and thought in her heart that the old man's method was nothing more than that! Obviously, there are no pajamas, is it because of old age and decay?
After listening to the lip battle, Sheffield had to open the round, saying, "We are talking about business and striving for favorable conditions for both sides. It is not when we declare war on behalf of the federal government and France? The atmosphere seems to be moving towards The direction of the unfriendly direction, please listen to me. Actually, if you think about it from the perspective of international relations, the British are busy now, which is beneficial to both of us. I believe that governments of all countries also think so. With the free hand, there may be variables in the canal project, of course, the French may think it has nothing to do with themselves, if you have not forgotten the Suez Canal! "
The Suez Canal starts from Port Said in the north and reaches Suez City in the south. Its opening makes the waterway from Europe to Asia shorter than the Cape of Good Hope by 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers, which not only greatly reduces the mileage and time of shipping, but also reduces the dangers that ships may encounter when sailing around the Cape of Good Hope. . Because the water levels in the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea are almost equal, there is no ship lock in the Suez Canal.
However, the result of the British-French fight for the Suez Canal was still a busy one for France. Britain controlled Egypt, and the Suez Canal, which France has worked so hard to build, has made great contributions to maintaining the status of a world-class power for Britain ...
"Although the failure of the British is gratifying, but I heard that the British mobilize troops all over the world, the Boer population is such a little, how long can it persist?" Sheffield said with a long heart, "In fact, it is not about spending time and energy In the Americas, France ’s interests in Africa are greater, and our United States adheres to Monroe doctrine and is not interested in things outside the Americas. It will not be a problem for France. After all, the United States would not be so easy without the help of the French. Independence, many people think that the founding father of the United States is Louis XVI, which makes sense. "
"In this way, after a very thorough investigation on the value of the French Canal Company ’s interests in Panama, I am willing to represent the United Company for a price of 36 million US dollars and transfer all the benefits at one time. Since then, the French Canal Company has dumped With a huge burden, we also achieved our goal. Although this number does not allow you to take a big advantage, but the subsequent risks are all borne by our company. "Sheffield talked in front of everyone." You Another issue to consider is the attitude of Colombia. In the battle for canal rights over the past few decades, if it was not for the Colombian government to always pick things up, it would not cause the canal to fail to be completed. "
Colombia ’s attitude is actually not important. Sheffield just used this country to show that he did not take advantage. If this sovereign country is not honest, it may be necessary to have some gunboat diplomacy.
If the face is really torn, this matter does not require the federal government to take action. With the strength of the Colombian Navy, the two warships of the United Company can complete the gunship diplomacy. Who makes the Colombian Navy almost equal to nothing, but also after Brazil, intelligence and Argentina.
Of course, Sheffield spoke in person, and did not achieve the final effect. The so-called king's anger, the other party was frightened and quickly agreed to the conditions, which does not exist.
On the basis of 36 million US dollars, the two sides are still fighting a little bit, from 1 million US dollars, to fight for 100,000 US dollars, the two groups of Grand Terraces gathered together, and did not let go of any one-dollar fight.
It seems that as long as I loose my mouth first, I will be treated with cramps. In the price competition of $ 38 million, Sheffield once again said, "I will add another $ 300,000 to three thousand eight hundred. A half-million dollar deal? This has expressed full goodwill. "
"We are going to send a telegram to the Paris headquarters!" Seeing that Sheffield was a little impatient, Philip, who had arrived from Paris, said he would discuss it with the headquarters. I will be here for the time being.
Sheffield already feels that she is conscientious enough. After the buyout, the expenses are all yours. She has saved a lot of public relations expenses for the French. If the other party is still not satisfied? He is not satisfied yet. But looking at the gaze that Gail and McHale looked forward to, considering his identity as the chief of the thirteen states, he still suppressed his unhappiness. He always wanted to find some business for Dixie in the south.
Three days later, also at Oak Manor, both parties had announced a price of US $ 38.5 million, and announced that the French Canal Company would transfer all rights and interests of the Panama Canal to the Sheffield United Company and cut off the meat. The Panama Canal has nothing to do with France.
The news was immediately known to the entire United States, and Morgan, who had been thinking about how to intervene in British debt, heard this news for a long time and said, "I was negligent for a while and made him do it."
