Reborn American Giants
Chapter 47 Blanco's End 5,
On the streets of Los Angeles in the early morning, people are busy walking in a hurry, and so is a newsstand on the corner. The owner, Sandy, opened the door early in the morning, waiting for today's newspaper to be delivered to his door.
Sandy is a Colombian immigrant. After he worked hard and saved a lot of money, he "immigrated" to the United States with his family. Because of the Colombian domestic government forces and the "Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia-People's Army" and the drug traffickers "Medellin"
The war between the "groups" frightened Sandy, so he cleverly ran to the United States and opened a newsagency on the streets of Los Angeles to make a living.
The newspaper delivery van arrived soon. The driver jumped out of the van and greeted Sandy while opening the container door.
"Hey, Sandy, did you watch the game last night? The Rams actually lost. What on earth are these team members who can only fool around with?" complained the driver. He is a loyal football fan.
He has always supported the Los Angeles Rams, the pride of this city, but it seems that he was not satisfied with last night's game.
Sandy was not an authentic American, and he had no interest in the football game that Americans loved so much, but in order not to appear too "outstanding", he still echoed the driver's words.
"Those players have made a lot of money and are not living and drinking. Who can concentrate on playing football? We can just watch the excitement. By the way, what is the headline today?"
"Sandy, you will know just by looking at it. The headline in today's Los Angeles Times is very shocking, about your fellow Latin Americans."
The driver took out several bundles of newspapers and magazines from under the car while talking about topics that interested Sandy.
The newspapers were quickly unloaded, and the driver said goodbye and left. He had to deliver goods to other newsagents. Sandy laid out the newspapers before returning to the store and sitting down. He remembered what the driver said and picked up a copy of the Los Angeles Times.
》Look at it.
What catches the eye on the headline is a huge photo of a little girl. It must have been cut out and enlarged. The little girl above looks like she is only eleven or two years old, with tears in her eyes. Her eyes full of fear and pleading look like through the photo.
It was like seeing Sandy, which made his heart "twitch".
The headline is "If there is a God, please help these little girls."
Sandy took the time to read it and realized that this report was about a group of little girls in El Salvador, a Central American country, who had become the "playthings" of a group of political dignitaries. Sandy knew that the country of El Salvador was similar to Colombia, with civil war and economic recession.
Materials were extremely scarce, but he could not have imagined that in that country, the people who managed the country would actually do such a heinous act to one of their own citizens, an eleven or two-year-old child.
While Sandy was watching intently, a man in a suit and holding a cup of instant coffee in his right hand seemed to be attracted by the huge photo in the newspaper. He stopped in front of the newsagency and took out two dollars and handed it to him.
Sandy stood in front of the newsstand and started reading...
Scenes like this were staged on the streets of the entire city of Los Angeles. As time went by, through the huge radiation power of the "Los Angeles Times", it began to spread to the United States. All Americans who read the newspaper were angry. Victor needed "
"Public opinion pressure" is slowly building up.
Of course, Mr. Blanco, who is in El Salvador, does not know all this. He is currently very busy dealing with the decision made by Chairman Jose to take back the undeveloped land occupied by foreign companies in El Salvador.
The main target of this decision is the United Fruit Company. This company is an American company that is quite famous in the world. Its main business is selling vegetables and fruits produced in plantations in third world countries to the United States.
and Europe, including coffee produced abundantly in El Salvador.
This company relied on American capital to obtain the rights to build some railways in El Salvador. They took this opportunity to enclose land and owned 240,000 acres of land in El Salvador. The capital San Salvador was no exception. They built many plantation estates.
.
The manor of the "United Fruit Company" not only formed its own economic system, but also made its own laws, set up its own military camps, and could even arrest and kill workers at will, becoming a "state within a state."
Jose has tolerated this company for a long time. After seeing the rise of national democratic movements in Latin American countries, especially Guatemala and Brazil, which have successively carried out state-owned reforms and announced that the land owned by the company will be nationalized, he and
After communicating with his American advisors, he decided to take action against this American company in order to show his determination to reform to the people and increase support for his "election" in the next year.
So he issued this decision to first take back the undeveloped land under the name of the "United Fruit Company" as a test. In the capital San Salvador, the Ministry of Public Facilities and Infrastructure has the function of the "Land Management Bureau". Poor Blanco
The minister had no choice but to be "sandwiched" in the middle and was responsible for handling this matter.
He had just met with the lawyers sent by the United Fruit Company. They strongly stated that these undeveloped lands were only used by the company for rotational cultivation in order to maintain water and soil, so they were not developed. The El Salvadoran government had no right to privately announce the acquisition of these lands.
If Chairman Jose insists on doing so, they will ask the domestic government for help. The El Salvadoran government will infringe on the property of American companies for no reason.
Blanco could only accept the protest from the United Fruit Company's lawyers and said that he would report it to the higher-level department. However, he had no right to object to this "decision" and could only hope that the United Fruit Company would
Protesting to higher-level "big people", you are just an executor.
After fooling away the lawyer, Blanco felt a headache. Now the US government needs Jose, so he has no problem touching the "United Fruit Company", but as a specific "executor", if he really works too hard, then
My end probably won't be too "wonderful".
So the cunning Blanco immediately summoned his secretary Dario and immediately called the Sofia Hospital to book a ward for him because he was going to be "sick".
Blanco doesn't care whether he will offend Chairman Jose now. The national election is still in the "warm-up" stage. Whether Jose can be elected is still a question. But if he helps him deal with the "United Fruit Company", he will definitely be fired. It is as it should be. If the get out of class is dismissed, my career as a member of parliament will definitely be cut off, not to mention the greater "hope" in the future.
Dario followed Blanco's instructions and called the hospital to book a ward for him. Blanco simply "tied up" and moved into the "VIP Ward" of Sofia Hospital. He told Dario,
How should I "explain" to the person above and let him take care of it? In short, I will not handle any "official business" during this period.
Invisibly, Blanco sealed himself in the "hospital", cutting off his control over external information. If Victor knew about it, he would definitely laugh three times. It is really his own fault and he will not survive.
