Wild North America 1846

Chapter 710 King of Massachusetts
"This is the funniest thing I've ever heard, and it's also the most idiotic argument. Mr. Carl Vincent disregarded the interests of all the people in Massachusetts for his own self-interest, which is simply despicable."

Ma Wenxiu spoke fluent English, and under the attention of the imperial mission and representatives from various parties, he spoke calmly and eloquently.

He paused at this point, turned around and bowed slightly to Carl Vincent, who was very gentlemanly, and said;
"Forgive me, I didn't mean to attack personally, and I can apologize if there was a misunderstanding.

There has never been love without reason in this world, and there has never been hate without reason.

A choice related to the future destiny is before us. One is to establish a country independently, and the second is to become a part of the Tang Empire.

say the former

At most, we can win the same preferential conditions as our neighbors. In the future regional competition, Boston has no advantage at all, and the long-term economic development prospects are not promising.

I would like to ask all of you present, who among you has the confidence to defeat New York Harbor?

The New York family has taken [-]% of the goods trade volume of the entire east coast, which means that we have won the business interests, job opportunities and wealth that should belong to us, and such advantages will become bigger and bigger in equal competition.

If Boston wants to stand out from adversity, it must establish a closer relationship with the Tang Empire, and becoming a feudal kingdom is the best choice.

Because the Tang Empire is the largest cargo owner on the entire east coast, accounting for more than 9% of the total import and export trade, whether it can get his favor and support is related to the future of Boston Port and the future of the Massachusetts area.

If you don't become your own person, why should others help you?
Carl Vincent's so-called reason for finding a master for himself is even more ridiculous.

Canada also has a master, that is, the British Empire that stretches across the seven seas. Do Canadians live without dignity?
As a citizen of the Tang Empire, don't you live with more dignity than citizens of the Republic of New York or other small and weak countries?
Citizens of the German Empire also have their own masters, do they live without dignity?
The French overthrew their masters, were beaten like dogs by the Germans in Europe, and were excluded and disliked in various European kingdoms, like a mobile plague. Do they have dignity?
You people go to Europe, who ever heard of the Democratic Republic of Maine or the Republic of Connecticut?
Who knows what the fuck that is?

Who will take you seriously?

What history does this republic have to brag about?
Can a slogan stand for bread?
Also... I would like to ask the honorable lords of the mission, if we promote the surrender of the Massachusetts area to the Tang Empire, can we be rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor?

I mean, like aristocrats or something..."

Like an excellent orator, Ma Wenxiu's eloquence conquered most people, especially the suspense left by the last sentence, which made the eyes of most representatives present shine.

god sorry
Regardless of the fact that the United States promotes the ideas of democracy, fairness, and freedom everywhere, it is actually deeply imprinted with the yearning and pursuit of European aristocrats, but the European kingdoms just dismiss this rude cowboy country.

throughout the 19th century
The biggest pursuit of every rich man in the United States is to marry his daughter to a down-and-out British or German nobleman.

After the rise of the Tang Empire, there were quite a few wealthy white merchant families who married into the nobles of the empire. It has become a constant obsession to be part of the noble blood of the nobles.

If they had nothing to do with the European and American aristocratic circles, the upper class people in the United States would be despised and considered to be of humble origins, and no matter how cleansed they were, they would be lowly upstarts.

The strict concept of hierarchy in the 19th century was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one can erase it.

That's why Mr. Ma Wenxiu's last words were extremely lethal, and everyone stared at Viscount Lin Feng with shining eyes.

Viscount Lin Feng nodded in approval and said;

"The empire has always treated meritorious ministers favorably. During the process of the countries in Central and South America submitting to the empire, many of them were indeed rewarded by His Majesty the Holy Emperor and conferred hereditary nobles.

There are precedents for this, but when it comes to royal affairs, we, as servants, should not speculate arbitrarily, as it is considered disrespectful.

but i can reveal

If this discussion can be passed, the empire may be the Duke of Alaska, known for his magnanimity, His Royal Highness Tang-Li Dian will become the king of Massachusetts.

Relevant meritorious ministers can be awarded and rewarded by His Majesty the King, and the representatives present can at least get a title of lifelong nobleman, there is no doubt about it. "

His words caused a bigger commotion, and the representatives started to ask questions regardless of the discipline of the venue;
"My lord envoy, I'm trying my best to mobilize people around me to support the plan of surrendering to the empire. Is it possible to get the title of hereditary nobleman? A baron is enough."

"Don't make people laugh, why do you look like a nobleman?"

"My lord, I have always admired the noble demeanor of the empire and tried my best to promote the surrender to the empire. I agree with option 5."

"And me, my lord envoy..."

Seeing that the venue was in chaos again, Viscount Lin Feng had no choice but to wave the magic hammer in his hand, knocked it a few more times, and said;
"Please pay attention to the discipline of the venue, please pay attention to everyone's gentlemanly demeanor, the empire will conduct a thorough investigation of those who have made contributions, and make a fair judgment.

The greater the contribution, the richer the reward.

I cannot express my position on behalf of the vassal king, but please believe in the wisdom and justice of the empire, to borrow what Mr. Ma Wenxiu just said;,

There is no love for no reason in this world, no one will accommodate you and pamper you for no reason.If anything, it must have been due to a more intimate and inseparable relationship.

Now, does Mr. Carl Vincent have an opinion?Do you have any questions? "

"I... I don't have any more." Mr. Carl Vincent blushed, hesitated and said again;

"My lord envoy, I express my strong objection because I have some doubts in my heart that have not been explained.

In fact, I yearn for the Great Tang Empire very much in my heart, and I also very much hope to become a part of the Great Tang Empire, and deeply cheer for the glory of the Great Tang Empire..."

"what……"

There was a sound of booing in the venue, and everyone turned their contemptuous gazes to Carl Vincent, as if they had met a new person.

His shamelessness, his fickleness, and his shameless face after hearing that he could be conferred the title of nobility opened people's eyes and made them more eager in their hearts.

If you don't do it for yourself, you will be destroyed!

Carl Vincent, who completely sacrificed his personal image at this moment, twisted his neck and said unconvinced; "I only have a deep love for the empire, and I will ask more acute questions. Now all the questions have been explained. , I fully support the surrender to the Tang Empire, and I will be the first to take the lead to express my warm welcome..."

"what……"

There was louder booing, and finally many representatives rushed to shout;

"My lord, I absolutely support option 5. I am Joe Dawn from Boloria."

"I also support it. I am Enzo Maldini, a representative of the West End Three-Wheel Workers Union, and I am Italian."

"Go away, Italian, I am a Song elector from the Kingdom of Heaven, representing the Federation of Factory Owners and agreeing to return to the empire."

"And I……"

"Ka Ka Ka..." Viscount Lin Feng had no choice but to strike the magic hammer a few more times, and then he said after the sound calmed down for a while;

"Gentlemen, please pay attention to the order of the venue, so now the free debate session is over, and we will enter the next procedure, and it's time for all representatives to vote.

Our recording officer will record the voting intentions of each representative and gather them together. If more than 7% of the representatives agree, the plan will be passed.

Start now……"

When Viscount Lin Feng presided over the next procedure, Lord Pan Shouguo, Minister of North American Affairs, noticed Carl Vincent's expression. This big white man showed unconcealable joy on his face, just like a child returning to his mother's arms after being away from home for decades Same.

Such an expression touched Lord Pan Shouguo's heart before he was sure; this was Carl Vincent's true wish from the bottom of his heart.

Among ordinary people in the United States, many people do not approve of any democratic system, still deeply miss the rule of European kingdoms, and think that having a king is the real glory.

There are not a few people with this traditional concept, and Carl Vincent may be one of them.

It's just that in a democratic country like the United States, ordinary people have no right to decide which system to choose, they can only follow the trend.

Massachusetts is an area with a large number of Chinese, accounting for 38.3% of the total population. It basically monopolizes the local port transportation, industry, commerce and agriculture, and is an extremely influential mainstream ethnic group.

However, the unanimous approval of belonging to the Tang Empire is due to the subtle influence of the empire over the years, the temptation of personal interests, the nails planted over the past few decades, and the generous promises of the imperial mission...

These factors are all brought together, plus a red face and a white face guide the emotional direction of the representatives, and finally such a result can be achieved.

Soon the voting results came out, and 94% of the voter representatives supported the plan of annexing the Tang Empire, thus forming a final decision.

After the people's representatives in the parliament building passed the vote, the Tang Empire's military quickly moved into action. In the remaining two weeks, it quickly increased the garrison from more than 5000 to 1.7, and launched a comprehensive purge operation.

The empire's large cavalry squad roared back and forth between the city and the countryside, suppressing neighborhood thugs and sporadic horse bandits, resulting in a rapid improvement in regional law and order, and a full restoration to the stage of peaceful reconstruction.

The end of March
When His Royal Highness Don Lidian, the Duke of Alaska, arrived in Massachusetts by special train, he was warmly welcomed by the local residents, with colorful flags flying and crowds of people.

After becoming the king of Massachusetts, His Majesty the King generously rewarded meritorious ministers, conferring two earls, five viscounts and 17 barons at one go, all of which are extremely honorable hereditary titles.

In addition, 31 baronets and many knights were awarded, which belonged to the title of nobility for life, but knights were not recognized as nobles in Europe.

It should be noted

The nobles conferred by His Majesty the King belong to the Kingdom of Massachusetts, they are lower than the nobles of the empire, and the degree of honor cannot be compared.

The most amazing thing is that Carl Vincent also got a title of Viscount, and he appeared glamorously at the grand scene of the king's enthronement. At this time, many people have tasted it;

Omegadi, was deceived by this old boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. It turned out that he was...

God, it's so deceiving.
