After the news that the U.S. Congress is about to launch the Nicaraguan Canal plan spread, the gold owners from Europe were completely messed up. They did not know whether the Ocean Canal Company had already obtained the authorization of the Colombian government, and they did not know whether the U.S. Congress really started Nicaragua. Canal plan.
In addition, all kinds of gossips are flying around. There are rumors that the Colombian government has re-signed a contract with the U.S. government to re-grant the excavation rights to the Panama Canal. There are also rumors that representatives of the International Canal Company will soon leave for Colombia. One of the most outrageous rumors of the actual exploration of the isthmus of Panama is that the British have stepped in again, and neither the Americans nor the French have had a chance.
In fact, the British have the least chance. Since the independence of the United States, Britain ’s influence in the Americas has deteriorated. Seeing that Canada is about to become a vassal of the United States, the British are even more out of reach for South America. As early as 30 years ago, the British South America has lost its influence.
One of the benefits of the gossip flying is that it has given Panama Canal Company more time. As long as European gold owners are still on the sidelines, Panama Canal Company has the opportunity to take advantage.
Rutherford Hayes was sworn in at the Presidential Palace on March 5.
Rutherford Hayes was the first U.S. President to be sworn in at the Presidential Palace. According to the schedule, Rutherford Hayes should have been sworn in on March 3, but considering that March 5 is Sunday Therefore, Rutherford Hayes made a private oath on March 3, and then did not take a public oath on March 5 or Monday.
Unfortunately, Ulysses Grant stayed in the Presidential Palace until March 4th, which also caused Hayes to be unable to enter the Presidential Palace immediately under the oath, which became Ulysses · Another stain on Grant's political career.
Li Mu participated in the two oaths by Rutherford Hayes, and on the eve of Ulysses Grant leaving the Presidential Palace, Li Mu had a long talk.
According to the previous agreement, Ulysses Grant will go to Steed Group as a senior consultant after leaving, so this time Li Mu went to Washington to participate in Hayes' inauguration ceremony and to welcome Ulysses Grant's arrival. .
Ulysses S. Grant and Li Mu met, and of course the topic could not be separated from the recent rumblings of the Panama Canal.
"I'm sorry, Hamilton and I did our best, but we still couldn't get Colombia's authorization ..." Ulysses Grant was quite helpless when he mentioned the matter, which is considered a cold walk, even if the Colombian government is To talk, also talk to Hayes.
In all fairness, Ulysses Grant really hopes to advance the Panama Canal during his tenure. This will be one of the few bright spots in Ulysses Grant's tenure. It will not let future generations bring Ulysses S. Grant. The only The impression is that failed president.
"It doesn't matter. You can push Congress to pass the Panama Canal project and have done everything you can. Now let's look at the Canal Management Committee ..." Li Mu said here, and suddenly took out an invitation letter from his suit pocket: " Speaking of the Panama Canal Management Committee, I have here an invitation letter with the signatures of all our members. If you agree, we would like to invite you to chair the Panama Canal Management Committee. "
There is no doubt that the chairman is building momentum for the Panama Canal Company. The French set up an international canal company and asked Fernand Reese to be the chairman. Li Mu and they simply came and invited one The former president who stepped down as chairman will fully demonstrate the confidence of Americans in the Panama Canal project.
"Um, it's ... it really makes me a little flattered ..." Ulysses Grant did not expect that Li Mu could send such a great gift, which is to link Ulysses Grant to the Panama Canal anyway .
Don't look at Ulysses Grant's reputation in the future. In fact, in this era, if it wasn't for the Democrats' vilification, few people really care about whether Ulysses Grant is a qualified president. After all, the current environment is In this way, all governments around the world are standing side by side, and I am afraid that one cannot find a qualified one.
"This is what you deserve, the American people ... and even all Americans should always remember that it is you who promoted the launch of the Panama Canal project. The Panama Canal will definitely benefit all American people. Your credit should not be forgotten. Li Mu's remarks are true and sincere, and indeed they are not fakes.
It doesn't matter how bad Ulysses Grant's reputation is. Regardless of how unqualified Ulysses Grant is as president, but Ulysses Grant is really good to Li Mu. This must be acknowledged.
Without Ulysses Grant, Steed Weapons Company would not get the first order from the War Department. Without Ulysses Grant, there would be no trip to Cuba by Li Mu, let alone the next During his trip to Hawaii, Li Mu would not have so much influence in the Senate. Without Ulysses Grant, it would be impossible for Steed Weapons Company to annex Springfield, Colt, Winchester and other arms companies one after another. Dominate the US arms market ...
In this case, let alone the chairman of the Panama Canal Management Committee, even Li Mu's direct share with Ulysses S. Grant.
"Since I am the chairman of the Panama Canal Management Committee, I have to do my due diligence. I think we should focus on Martinez Silva next, which will put us in a better position. "Ulysses Grant entered the state very quickly, and immediately found the key to solving the problem.
In fact, solving the problem is very simple, as long as one step at a time, you can be down to earth, but unfortunately Ulysses S. Grant did not understand this until he stepped down.
Doing business is almost the same as fighting a war. It is also about finding the opponent's weaknesses and focusing on offenses. As long as you understand this, Ulysses S. Grant does not say that he can get a lot of money in the mall, at least not as bad as when he was in office.
When it comes to fighting, ten Li Mu tied together are not necessarily comparable to one Ulysses S. Grant.
"Martines Silva ..." Li Mu knew that this was Colombia's ambassador to the United States, but did not think that Martinez Silva had much say in the Balama Canal.
What does the post of ambassador to foreign countries say? It looks beautiful on the surface, in fact, it is a microphone, and the living condition is similar to that of a rat drilling into a bellows.
If there is a dispute between the Americans and the Colombians, then the Colombian ambassador to the United States can play a moderating role. If the Americans have suffered in the dispute, it may not be said that Martinez Silva will still be the president of the United States Summoned, and then scolded by a dog's blood, and if the dispute is not handled properly, and the Americans want to retaliate, Martinez Silva will inevitably be labeled as ineffective ...
Ambassador, that's what it does.
"After you released the news that the Nicaragua Canal was to be launched, Hamilton and Martinez had many contacts. Martinez was very anxious. In fact, if we wait for a while, we can sign with Martinez Silva. A supplement to the concession agreement, although the Colombian Congress may not necessarily pass it, but it allows us to take full initiative. "Ulysses Grant has not done much during this time. Seeing that the results are coming, the President The term of office has arrived, so you can imagine how frustrated Ulysses Grant was, no wonder Hayes took the oath, and Ulysses Grant was still reluctant to move in the President's Palace.
Ulysses Grant's concession refers to the "Peace, Friendship, Navigation and Trade Treaty between the United States, New Granada, and the Government of New Granada."
In the treaty, the United States obtained the coveted Panama Canal right, which was then 20 years.
Now 20 years have passed, and the United States has not launched the Panama Canal plan as promised, so the original contract was supposedly void. Now if the US government can sign a supplementary treaty with Martinez Silva, if the Colombian government can confirm, then Americans can continue to gain access to excavation, thereby excluding French.
It should be added that, unlike the previous 20-year period, this time Ulysses Grant wanted a period of 100 years.
As the Colombian ambassador to the United States, Martinez Silva can sign such a contract with the US government, but the contract must be confirmed by the Colombian Congress to be effective.
It doesn't matter if the Colombian Congress does not confirm it. By then, the US government has fully taken the initiative, and there are ways to get the Colombian Congress to submit.
As for the fate of Martinez Silva by then, this is not considered by Ulysses S. Grant.
Li Mu also didn't care about Martinez Silva's life and death. After listening to Ulysses Grant's words, Li Mu immediately revived: "Yes, I don't know what our ambassador likes?"
To be honest, if you were to cross Li Mu before crossing the road, you might feel ashamed if you asked.
But for Li Mu now, this is completely a subconscious reaction.
This is the characteristics of the times. Yangji Canal Company can buy 150 ministers and parliamentarians. The energy of Panama Canal Company is not bad, and it will only be more efficient to launch it with full force.
"You don't need a too high price code. A US $ 50,000 or so should be enough to satisfy Martinez Silva." Ulysses Grant is even more ashamed. Such a thing is at Ulysses S. Grant It seems to be commonplace.
"Then $ 50,000!" Li Mu said in a word. Li Mu didn't need to consult with other members at this level of fund use.
"Bingo! Wait and see." Ulysses Grant was so confident that he finally realized the freedom he wanted.
When the president was really a chore, Ulysses S. Grant certainly knew that Martinez Silva could be bought with money, but Ulysses S. Grant was impossible to implement at the time. This involved When it comes to the honor of a country, regardless of whether the actual US government is clean or not, the sheep's head on the door must be hung up.
This comparison is still more comfortable in the mall. In the post of Chairman of the Panama Canal Commission, no matter what Ulysses Grant wants, no approval from Congress is needed, and no Democrats will give pointers, let alone worry. In the future, he left a lifetime of fame when he concluded the coffin. Thinking of it this way, Ulysses Grant was annoyed abnormally. In these years of the presidency, it was an absolute waste of time.
Just do it. At the Hayes inaugural dinner on the evening of March 5th, Li Mu finally met Martinez Silva.
Martinez is a standard beautiful man, with firm facial lines, thick eyebrows, sunken eye sockets, and charming blue eyes. From this point, Martinez Silva seems to have a bit of Nordic descent.
Li Mu desperately wanted to see Martinez Silva. Unexpectedly, Martinez Silva's mood to see Li Mu was extremely urgent.
"Mr. Riem, I'm glad to meet you. Your achievements are very impressive. You are welcome to have the opportunity to visit Colombia." Martinez Silva was able to put himself in a low position.
"I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Martinez. I also hope that if I have the opportunity, I can go to Colombia and see if there are any unexpected surprises." Li Mu dealt with it casually. This was not perfunctory. Li Mu really had the intention.
Now Li Mu can also be regarded as famous. Although Junma Group is a West Coast company, in the East China Sea, in Cuba, and in the Far East, Junma Group has its own branch factory. In this case, in Colombia, Junma Group can also replicate this. mode.
Of course, this is only what Martinez Silva thinks. "Mou" by Li Mu does not mean that. Li Mu really wants to invest in Colombia, but not to open a branch factory, but to invest in a canal.
"When it comes to the canal, to be honest I'm curious. May I ask you a question, Mr. Martinez, do you think the French have the ability to build a 60-mile-long canal in Panama?" Li Mu was straightforward and did not go around the curve at all.
For Li Mu, time is money, so speaking can be concise and concise, which is also a common feature of all successful people. They do not need to pay too much attention to others' thoughts, but they are more important to express their ideas completely.
"To be honest, I don't think so. It would be a disaster if the French were given the right to excavate the canal." Martinez Silva knew how much work the Americans had done for the Panama Canal, so Also not optimistic about the French.
"That being the case, then I hope to have the opportunity to have an in-depth exchange with you on this issue tomorrow." Li Mu sent an invitation to Martinez Silva.
"Very honoured ..." Martinez Silva readily agreed. At this moment, I don't know what kind of surprise Li Mu has prepared for him. Even if he knew, it is estimated that Martinez Silva would not object.
