Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner

Although JP Morgan didn't agree to do the big electric light business for the time being, Tangning wasn't in a hurry. First, he made a fortune just installing lighting systems for the wealthy, and secondly, he wasn't in a hurry because he had a patent.

Considering that she had been out for almost a month, Tangning brought Hopsolo and Ajid back to New Orleans. After returning home, Tangning had the two rehearse in front of her black slaves while installing the lighting system in her home. , intends to develop customers in the south, after all, the local rich people in the south are easy to make money now, and they are willing to spend money.

After everything was ready, Tangning invited the owners of the manor from the last meeting at Frick Manor to have a party at home. When they saw the bright but not dazzling light, everyone couldn't help exclaiming.

"MYGOD! Is it, is it dawn?"

"Yes, isn't it dark now?"

"What kind of gas lamp is this? Not only is it so bright, it's not dazzling, but it doesn't smell of kerosene at all?"

"Could it be that little Tony brought it back from New York?"

"..."

Seeing that everyone was almost shocked, Tangning came out and explained, "This is a new technology I brought back from the north, it's called a carbon filament light bulb. I've installed it in all the rooms of my house, how is it? Is it the effect? very good?"

"It's really good, little Tony, you can also set up a set for my house, so that I don't have to feel so uncomfortable when I read at night!" The big fat Carter applied.

"You don't read books during the day, but you can read them at night? I guess you're doing it for the convenience of eating!" Skinny William sneered, but then also said, "Tony, give me a set too!"

Others, including Frick, also requested to install it in their own homes. Tangning naturally would not refuse this, but still reminded: "No problem, I will send someone to your home to install it from tomorrow, but there is one point that needs to be made clear in advance. This stuff is expensive..."

Before Tangning could finish speaking, Carter waved his hand, "Little Tony, do you think we can't even afford this kind of money?"

"Of course not!" Tangning said with an apologetic smile, then changed the subject, "Okay, everyone, please watch the performance of Hopsolo and Ajid that I brought back from New York!"

Although there were no black slaves in the audience at this time, because the two had performed many times, they were well acquainted with each other and performed an emotional performance in front of the slave owners.

The slave owners were very satisfied with their performances, but some people asked curiously, "Tony, are they all true?"

Tangning hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Most of them are true, especially Ajid, his experience is basically true, he used to be a black slave in my family, and then he ran away under the bewitchment of the Underground Railroad. I went to New York, but the days there are not as good as here!"

Frick nodded and said, "Well, I also think this Ajid is very real, but this Hope is..."

Tangning spread her hands and said, "I really couldn't find a suitable female nigger, so I hired one on Broadway. If you think it's too fake, then I'll just send Ajid to your place!"

The next day, Tangning brought Ajid to Frick's manor to give a "Reminiscence of the bitter and sweet speech". During the period, Frick naturally invited Tangning to have lunch. During the dinner, Tangning was surprised to see someone who looked a bit like him. Vivien Leigh's beautiful girl, but in his memory, there is no such beautiful girl in the Frick family!

Seeing Tangning's surprised expression, Frick introduced with a smile, "Tony, let me introduce to you, this is Miss Scarlett--Miss Howard, the daughter of my old friend, her family has opened several doors in Georgia. The family plantation, recently came to New Orleans for a tour. Scarlett, this is Tony Downing, a very good young man, very familiar with New Orleans, if you want to go anywhere, you can ask him to take you!"

When she heard the name "Scarlett", Tangning couldn't help but complain. Fortunately, her surname was not O'Hara. Well, not only are they both named Scarlett, but they're all from Georgia.

Just as Tangning's mind was full of thoughts, Scarlett extended her hand generously and said, "Hello, Mr. Tangning!"

"Hello, Miss Howard!" Tangning hurriedly greeted her.

After chatting for a while, Scarlett asked Tangning, "Mr. Tangning, I heard Uncle Frick say that you have installed electric lights brought back from New York in your house. They are very beautiful, aren't they?"

"It is indeed much better than gas lamps. If you have time, Miss Howard, you are welcome to come and have a look!" Tangning replied casually.

But as soon as he said it, he regretted it. Because he and Scarlet had just met today, it was very inappropriate to invite people to go to their own home alone. As expected, hearing Tangning say this, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Scarlett also Feeling very embarrassed, but Frick said to Scarlett on the side: "It just so happens that your Aunt Emily also wants to see what electric lights are like. Then Scarlett, you can go with you too!"

Scarlett responded: "Okay, Uncle Frick."

That night, Mrs. Frick brought Scarlett and several maids to Tangning's house, and Tangning naturally welcomed her warmly.

However, Tangning's enthusiasm caused a misunderstanding between his two maids. Isabel asked Caroline, "Do you think this Miss Howard will be our future mistress?"

Caroline nodded and replied: "It's very possible, because this is the first time I've seen the master be so enthusiastic about a girl!" Then she frowned and said, "I don't know what this Miss Howard's temper is. I've heard a lot of rumors that the hostess beat the female slave that the host likes to death!"

"It seems that Miss Howard is not such a bad-tempered person, and the master likes us so much, I don't think such a thing should be allowed to happen, right?" Isabel analyzed.

Caroline sighed and said, "I hope so! Now it seems that we can only try our best to please the master, so that we can be safer in the future!"

Isabel nodded in agreement: "Well, you're right! Hey, it would be nice if the master never looked for a mistress."

Caroline laughed and said, "How is this possible, and even if the master doesn't find a mistress, he will never marry us!"
