Alchemy Greater China

【438】Women's thoughts

( ) The identity of this admiral is even more incomprehensible. His name is Gu Xiangyun. He is a student who just graduated from the Annapolis Military Academy. He is of Chinese descent and has excellent grades.

But no matter how good his grades are, he is still a rookie. What can he do to be the highest officer on the west coast of the United States?

And it also created a precedent for a Chinese to serve as a senior military official!

But it was only when those interested got to know him deeply that he was relieved: this Gu Xiangyun was a young man sent by the Qing Empire to study in the United States, under the age of 25, and his appointment was considered to be the product of a compromise between Cleveland and the new military department.

The reason for the compromise can be understood by the whole world after a little thought. The Harrison "government" and the Walson military department have caused great harm to California, especially to the Chinese model, the Earl of Beihai.

Therefore, the appointment of a Chinese as the highest naval officer on the west coast means that the new military department is showing goodwill to the Chinese, Xiang Long Hao, and the European countries behind Long Hao, which is full of fragrance.

Thinking a little bit more, Benson, the chief culprit of the 'Bombardment Crisis', is still jumping around in Seattle!

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and Ma Han's newly-administered Navy Department made this decision, perhaps without the intention of killing people with a knife.

Aren't the four western states engaged in a campaign to support the Chinese? [

Well, I'll send a Chinese navy officer over there to see if you support Benson's 'pseudo-fleet' or the first Chinese to serve as a senior US military officer?

That's about it for the political and military affairs of the United States, but the people at the bottom and... the chaebols in the east are the ones who feel the most about the bombing crisis and the aftermath of the Battle of the Mire in June!

After the disaster, the people of California, except for the middle class who have a little money, the rest of them are in the grief of returning home and mourning the loss of their loved ones.This kind of tragic result is no less than that of the civil war 30 years ago. After burying their relatives, the vast majority of the people at the bottom became destitute.The dissatisfaction with the US "government" in the body has reached its peak.

Take California's 'disaster center' San Francisco Triangle as an example, this feeling of dissatisfaction was accurately 'utilized' by the new California Governor Leland Stanford and the re-elected San Francisco Mayor Sr. Stevenson.

It is said to be used, but in fact, this set of people has also produced 'real materials'.Help these disaster-stricken people tide over the difficulties.

As soon as jmw ended, Stevenson Sr. led the police force and included San Jose and Sacramento around San Francisco into the scope of 'disaster reconstruction'.

Funds are needed for reconstruction, and the always clean old Stevenson naturally has no money, so he signed a 'big loan' agreement with Beihai Bank in the name of San Francisco, San Jose, and Sacramento.

The initial plan for disaster relief and reconstruction funds is 200 million US dollars.In order to express the sincerity and credit of the "governments" of the three cities, old Stevenson mortgaged the land in the middle of the triangle area surrounded by the three cities to Beihai Bank.

This move is no problem.

Although at the beginning, some republican politicians in the field attacked the old Stevenson, saying that he was just the mayor of San Francisco and had no right to represent San Jose and Sacramento.He said that he took the opportunity to expand his territory and wanted to incorporate San Jose and Sacramento, which had been devastated by the war, into San Francisco's sphere of influence.

However, when the loan of 200 million US dollars was transferred to the account of the "government", these voices died down immediately.

200 million US dollars, in the 21st century, it is equivalent to a huge sum of more than 20 billion US dollars!

We can help half of Brunei!

Compared with the total compensation of only 10 US dollars allocated by the White House to the four western states, the big loan agreement even more reflects the determination and ability of the old Stevenson "government".

If you are not convinced, which bank should you try to get a loan of 200 million US dollars?If those bankers have this money and don't invest it, they will give it to you to help the disaster victims? [

Bah, go dreaming!

Under the revelation, interpretation, contrast and momentum of the local newspapers in San Francisco.In less than two weeks, the people of the entire California basically knew the 'difficulty' of the old Stevenson's "government".

$200 million for an empty lot inhabited by people?

Go to tm for the crime of selling federal fixed assets!

You will say that most of the western part is open space.It's usually empty, and you don't see it coming to develop it. Now, the "government" of San Francisco is doing a good job in exchanging the idle "waste" for funds to rebuild the city!

You didn't mortgage a square inch of land in the city. You people say that grapes are sour if you can't eat grapes, right?

The speed of issuing large loans is due to the full cooperation between Beihai Bank and the old Stevenson "government".

Beihai Bank showed an unprecedented speed of "bank lending", and the old Stevenson's "government" showed the efficiency of "government" work of the ancients.

When the "government" has money, it first uses food to appease the victims, and then the "government" pays for the construction of shelters. In addition, it also gives money to those with skills to make a comeback... In short, they all use socialist post-disaster treatments.

History has continuously proved that when it comes to money, capitalism works, but when it comes to healing, socialism is simply a full-level priest. With the finger of the scepter, the devastated ruins are immediately resurrected with blood.

Of course, the resurrection with full blood is a bit too exaggerated, but the disaster relief effect of the old Stevenson "government" is indeed immediate. Before Cleveland was sworn in, the San Francisco Triangle has been restored to life. If you don't look at those things before it's too late The cleared ruins and broken walls, just seeing the people coming and going and the vibrant scenery, makes it hard to imagine that this place was the hardest hit area of ​​the Xiabo Department more than ten days ago.

The San Francisco Triangle has set a good example. The rest of the disaster-stricken cities in California, such as the Los Angeles area...even the surrounding Nevada and Oregon states are also greedy, and have tentatively proposed to the North Sea Bank to borrow money for reconstruction.

Their purpose is very simple: as long as they pay for a little spare land, they can get millions of dollars in exchange. It's so cheap, why don't they take it?And...we have indeed been affected by the flames of war. The life savings of many rich people have been robbed by the hateful Xia Bobu. Now we have many "bankrupt local tyrants" clamoring for the "government" to compensate for their losses. ah!Those of us officials who clean up the mess are having a hard time!

Faced with the snowflakes of "help letters" and the endless stream of appointment appointments, Beihai Bank, which was established less than a month ago, showed good patience and self-cultivation.

Princess Melissa of Xianlu, who is the president of the bank, applied for the application above the city level.Approvals were carried out one by one, and the officials who came to San Francisco for interviews were also given a full and friendly reception.

This time, Melissa was so busy that she kicked her toes and kicked her front heels for a few days.He barely drank his saliva, and the total amount of "loans" approved reached a staggering 900 million US dollars!Benefiting 21 cities in four western states.

In order to illustrate Melissa's busyness, the following is an excerpt of Melissa's conversation on a certain day in July.

"Sasha, how many official representatives did you receive today?"

"Sister Yuan'er, there are not many. There are only fifteen of them, and nine of them are village representatives, and three are actually bankrupt private businessmen who were affected by the disaster. I have transferred them to the managers below."

These managers, business-savvy, came from the merged Rothschild banks.

"It's outrageous. As soon as we heard that we were rich, ghosts and monsters came here, as if we were what the young master said: people are stupid and have a lot of money, come quickly?"

"Hehe..." Melissa gave a weary smile: "What's the matter, anyway, Oen has been in a coma. It's good if I'm a little tired from work, and I won't miss him if I concentrate. Hey!"

"Sasha, why are you still in a dead end?" Yuan'er came up and stroked Melissa's back: "I told you, the young master is so powerful, how could he be seriously injured and unconscious? The person on the bed must be pretending of!"

"Are you sure?" Melissa smiled miserably, a heartbreaking smile.

"This...you don't remember the incident between the young master and us...his body must be extremely strong...you and I have already shouted, the concubine can't do it?" Yuan'er blushed pretty, even though It was in a very confidential room, and the voice of speaking was also kept low.

"Oen's body is certainly excellent, but...that's the head! Have you heard of Achilles? A great hero in ancient Greek mythology. He was invulnerable, but he died on his ankle in the end... Heroes always have weaknesses Yes, once caught, it will be fatal."

"Hey, I have never heard of foreign myths. But the young master is definitely not comparable to that god horse Achilles!"

Why am I so stupid, didn't remember the characteristics of the young master?Yuan'er regrets it to death now. When she was a child, she had heart knots and was not attentive in serving Long Hao. Later, the two became close, but because of the girl's shyness, she almost closed her eyes every time. Long Hao She couldn't recall any special marks on her body.

No, when Yuan'er thinks about it now, she feels both annoyed and guilty, but there is one thing she firmly believes that her young master will never be injured in such a useless way, the one on the bed must be a Xibei product!

It's a pity that there is no evidence.

"Sister Yuan'er, where's the evidence?"

"What evidence do you want? Intuition, rely on intuition! Sasha, we are all women, what about your intuition as a woman?"

"I don't believe in intuition. I just want to fulfill Oen's wish and help him continue his unfinished business! Maybe I'm exhausted to the extreme, and he feels distressed and wakes up?"

"What can I say about you...Look at Ai Shili, she doesn't believe that the person on the bed is the young master. In just two days, she left the hospital and went to the pier to rebuild her shipyard!" Yuan'er hated Tiebucheng a little. Steel, who is also a European princess, why is there such a big gap in life?

"Her? How long has she known Oen? She is too competitive. She wholeheartedly wants to build that Ailong shipyard into the world's largest shipyard. She said that she will overwhelm me in terms of making money..." Melissa She smiled disdainfully, and pulled her hair down: "But how does she know that Ailong Shipyard is only a very small part of Oen's industry...and when it comes to making money, what is better than a bank?"

"Okay, let's not talk about the young master, Sasha, let me ask you, Beihai Bank has just been established, and it has been lending money to the "government" in this way. If the other party refuses to repay it one day, won't we suffer a big loss? ?" Seeing that Melissa changed the subject intentionally, Yuan'er sighed, followed her lead, and began to ask about the Beihai Bank.

This bank is regarded as the last business that Long Hao planned before he fell into a "coma", and it is also related to whether Huaxia Town can spread its influence to the western coast of the United States. Yuan'er doesn't know much about the financial industry, but she is a little worried about Melissa If you lack energy, you will make mistakes and be fooled on borrowing issues.

"How can you suffer?"

Melissa smiled: "Sister Yuan'er, you are taking care of Oen in the hospital, so you don't know much... Oen's troops took too much advantage in this confrontation with the 338e Division, and now they are borrowing money. It only accounts for less than one-tenth of the harvest!"

Yuan'er smiled when she heard this, but said nothing more: The Dragon Scale Army has gained a lot in JMW, it would be biased to say that she, who is the young master's personal maid, doesn't know about it.

Under the deliberate guidance of Major General Miller, the Xiabo Department.Horseshoes and butcher knives have been swung across at least 30 counties and cities, and countless properties have been robbed, but it is precisely because of Miller's secret tip-off that often these properties are not warmed up in Xia Bo's hands, and the Dragon Scale Army After slapping the horse and killing it, after some driving.Take most of the property into your own hands.

Yuan'er has been in contact with Gao Tianyang, Yu Haosheng, Long Ganruo, etc., knowing that after a jmw, the Dragon Scale Army's income may be close to [-] million US dollars!

And this money can be counted as 'hidden' income in the end, because Xia Bo's department took the blame.

It took a lot of effort to count, collect, and hand over the [-] million U.S. dollars of property after the war, most of which.According to Long Hao's order before he fell into a "coma", they all injected capital into Beihai Bank.

This is why Melissa said that the money lent out was not as good as [-]% of the harvested money.

"... Sister Yuan'er, you get it now. These 'ill-gotten gains' are taken from the people of California, passed through the hands of the bank, and then returned to the "government" of California and surrounding cities. In the name of disaster relief, these good lands are all Take it under the name of oen! This is the plan he secretly told me before Xia Bo's department came."

The conversation between Yuan'er and Melissa came to an end. After learning about the general whereabouts of the money, Yuan'er told Melissa to pay attention to rest and take care of her body, and then went out. But not long after going out, her mind moved , an extremely disturbing thought came to mind.

Princess her.You didn't do this on purpose for me to see, did you?Actually... She wants to monopolize Beihai Bank?

This idea of ​​suspecting that Melissa is seeking profit for herself may sound absurd at first glance, or some people may even think that Yuan'er is a woman's mind and a chicken belly, but in fact, it is not the reason.

one.This jmw's 'war bonus' is too big, so big that people can't help but think about it.

California was originally the wealthiest state capital in the western United States. In addition, it has not seen war for decades, has many external ports, and its sea trade is extremely developed and prosperous. The wealth accumulated by its people has reached an outrageous level.

[-] million US dollars sounds like a lot, but it is only a preliminary estimate. If it is rounded up again, it is not impossible for the value to rise further.

Second, the quality of the Dragon Scale Army was too high. Almost none of the war wealth they 'confiscated' was handed over to Beihai Bank, and what was kept in private pockets was almost negligible.

This is not only due to the political propaganda of the Dragon Scale Party, but also because most of these soldiers are poor "three major civilians". They could not survive in the country. ', it's too late to be grateful, how can I hide the spoils like soldiers and bandits.

This was originally a good thing, but with Long Hao's accidental 'coma', the flavor of the matter has changed a bit. The young master is willing to hand it over, but if the object of handing over becomes the princess of the West, will those soldiers complain? ?

Yuan'er even felt that the young master's army might have made a wedding dress for Beihai Bank during this war.

The third is the real reason why Yuan'er became suspicious: Huaxia town sent a telegram, and Long Bo and others learned that Long Hao was bedridden and was on his way, arriving in San Francisco in a few days.

Long Bo is Yuan'er's art teacher. In the telegram, he implicitly hinted to Yuan'er that he should keep an eye on Long Hao's property, and don't let outsiders steal the dragon and turn it into a phoenix, taking advantage of it. When the backbone of Huaxia Town is assembled, Discuss the proposal together.

After all, Yuan'er came from Huaxia Town, so she has to think about the interests of the Chinese people. Although she and Melissa have a very good relationship, once her thoughts come out and are fermented by women's "delicate" thoughts, it will inevitably become difficult to deal with .

I didn't feel it when we talked just now, but after she came out, Yuan'er thought wildly: Princess, she has devoted herself to the bank affairs these days, is she really trying to anesthetize herself with work?Why does she always not believe that the person on the bed is not the young master?I have persuaded so much, but she always dodges left and right in words?

Could it be that she is really like what Long Bo said: if she is not of my race, her heart must be different?

She is white, seeing that the young master may never wake up, she has to think about herself... What about taking away the young master's property?

She is the young master's legal fiancee, which was announced by the Queen of England in front of the whole world. Once the doctors in Europe conclude that the young master cannot be cured, as the young master's first legal heir, wouldn't she have the title to occupy the young master's property?

Even Huaxia Town...

Oh... so scary!

Not to mention that the "poisonous snake" in Yuan'er's heart is biting her heart, which makes her feel very tormented. Let's temporarily turn our attention away from Beihai Bank and focus on the academic world... Don't forget, everyone, besides being an earl, Long Hao, He is also a master of physics who created the theory of quantum mechanics!

Long Hao's sudden "coma" caused a major earthquake in the world's academic circles. European scholars appealed in the newspapers, asking the US "government" to make a public apology for the despicable behavior of persecuting a physicist, and Give Long Hao and his family reasonable compensation, otherwise, they will refuse to conduct academic exchanges with the United States, and the time limit...undetermined!

This appeal was quickly responded to in the air of democracy and revolution in Europe. Hundreds of well-known universities in Europe united in unison to turn the "academic sanctions" against the United States from a verbal warning to an established fact. . (to be continued...)
