909 What Is a Capital Like?

Originally, Coco meant to take back the concession of the Dongying people who resolutely did not support themselves as the overseers of Shanghai, and to give the Dongying people a little bit of a good look in this way. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

By the way, he also recovered the French Concession and the British Concession, giving these two seemingly neutral, but actually thoughtful countries a little bit of power.

But Andrew suggested that Coco said that it was better to take back the concession at one time, eradicate this stubborn disease left over from the pre-Qing era, and boost the people's hearts, and at the same time, it could also show the reason that Coco became the overseer of Shanghai, and the courage of not fearing foreigners, persuaded the little guy.

Therefore, now Coco is no longer just about recovering the Dongying Concession, as well as the French Concession and the British Concession, including the American Concession and the Russian Concession, which were set up in Shanghai by the great powers of the former Qing Dynasty through armed violence.

It is only that relative to the way of recovering the Dongying Concession, Coco and Andrew of the US Concession intend to use peaceful means, and do not intend to resort to force.

Of course, whether or not to resort to force depends on the attitude of the Americans.

It would certainly be best if a peaceful solution could be resolved.

But if the Americans don't want to give up the interests of the Shanghai Concession, then of course Coco and Andrew can only send troops to solve the problem.

That's why Coco and Andrew came to the consulate in the American Concession.

Charles, the consul of the American Concession, the guy with the same name as the leader of the mutants in another time and space, has drops of sweat oozing from his forehead at this moment, which shows that he was frightened by the news that Coco and Andrew informed him.

It stands to reason that at such a time, as the consul of the concession, he should 'speak righteously' to Coco and Andrew, and at the same time threaten the two, which may lead to the outbreak of war in the local army.

But when he thinks of Anne, who is all the rage in the United States, Charles can't say such things anyway.

Because Charles understands that Anne has a lot of influence on policy in the United States, how can Coco, as Anne's 'daughter', want to be the overseer of Shanghai and take back the American concession in Shanghai at the same time, how can it arouse the concern of the United States?

It is true that the Shanghai American Concession has good profits here, which can bring great benefits to the United States, and is also the bridgehead of the United States in the East, but he is not sure that under the influence of Anne, those local politicians can really take the interests of this side to heart.

Politicians are black-hearted!

American politicians in 1911 were even more so!

So Charles's concern is not unreasonable.

After all, he himself is a politician, although he is only a small politician, but this does not prevent him from understanding the American political system in this era.

It is precisely because he understands what the political environment in the United States was like in 1911 that Charles will be afraid of Anne, and then dare not say too much in front of Coco and Andrew, and even behave so flatteringly.

Andrew kept a smile on his face, observed the changes in Charles's facial expression, and basically pondered Charles's inner activities, and after coming to Earth, Andrew studied psychology, which was not learned in vain.

"Mr. Charles, I know what you are worried about, but I personally think that it is completely unnecessary to worry about you like this, the status of our Miss Anne in the United States, I think you should also be very clear, she also has a very good relationship with the two # parties, so what you are worried about will not happen at all. ”

As he spoke, Andrew continued to observe the changes in Charles's facial expressions.

Andrew found that when he mentioned Anne, Charles's originally sad expression slowly eased, which shows that this guy knows very well how good Anne is in the United States.

Seeing this, Andrew sighed in his heart [It's only been a long time, Anne has actually become a big mess in the United States, I have to say that Anne is also a powerful woman].

"I think you can contact Miss Anne first, tell Miss Anne about it, and then inform the United States, so that you can gain Miss Anne's friendship. ”

Andrew gave Charles a trick to tell Anne about it first, and then inform the mainland of the news that the Shanghai Concession was going to be reclaimed by Coco.

After convincing Charles, the guy hurriedly left the reception room and went to the consulate's telegraph office to send a telegram.

Coco walked over, stood beside Andrew, and asked Andrew, "Is Annie's mommy as good in the United States as you say? She has only been in the United States with Grandpa Nord for a short time, are you fooling this guy named Charles?"

Andrew kept emphasizing that Anne was already very good on the American side, but the little guy didn't believe that much.

After all, everyone came to this time and space together, and now they haven't become the overseers of Shanghai, so Anne can influence policy in the United States?

It's unbelievable to think about it.

It's no wonder that the little guy would say that, and think that Andrew was fooling people.

Hearing this, Andrew turned his head sideways, looked down slightly at the little guy who was looking up at his little face, smiled, and said, "Andrew is not lying, Miss Annie really has a high status in the United States." ”

Despite Andrew's assurances, Coco still found it unbelievable, especially how did Annie Mommy do it to achieve such an achievement in such a short period of time.

You know, I'm also working hard.

"Andrew, what the hell did Annie Mommy do?"

Thinking of this, Coco couldn't help but ask.

Andrew smiled and told Coco how Anne and Old Nord had managed to achieve such a thing in such a short period of time after they went to the United States......

------ Dividing Line------

Small town of Illinois, Texas.

The town is known for its abundant oil reserves, and at one time it was a barren land, with only a few farm owners living on this vast land and living a self-sufficient life.

But since the discovery of oil in this place, this barren land has attracted all kinds of greedy capitalists, who have staged a bloody and dark battle to control the staggering oil wealth contained in this land.

American capital in the era of 1911 was far from being as gentlemanly and elegant as it looked in the 21st century, and some were just greedy for wealth.

Due to some legal reasons, these greedy fellows do not have the means to control the land by normal means and means, because the land belongs to the farmers in legal terms.

Therefore, if they can't get the ownership of the land from the farmers, then they will also have no chance of the black wealth hidden under the land.

Because of this, deception, murder, violence, began to play out here.

Since there is no way to get these by conventional means, it is better to use unconventional means.

And this is the common way of doing business in 1911 for American businessmen, the undisguised greed of human nature.

So, the accumulation of capital is bloody.

But no one expected that in this battle, the old Cluffie family was actually defeated, and was defeated by a woman named Annie who suddenly joined in, which really shocked people's jaws.

In the small town of Illinois, the Cluffey Oil Company was blown up in a burst of fire, and even the only remaining descendant of the Cluffey family was buried in the fire.

In an Italian café two blocks away, Anne, who was watching the flames through the glass, picked up the quilt in front of her and gently took a sip of the liquid in the cup, because there was no added sugar, so her mouth was faintly bitter.

"From this day forward, there is no Cluffie family on this plane. ”

Putting down the cup, Anne turned to the old butler who was sitting beside her, and said this.

Old Nord smiled and nodded: "Since the time when they sent gunmen to attack Miss a month ago, the fate of their Cluffie family has been sealed, if it weren't for Miss You didn't want to be too shocking, they wouldn't have survived for such a month." ”

"Their lineage is all dead, and the wealth will be inherited by the sidelines, so you go find someone who can inherit that wealth and let him resell all the inheritance left by Cluffie to us. ”

With that, Anne stood up and left the small café surrounded by a group of men in top hats and black suits, while Old Nord walked to the café's bar and placed a one-dollar bill on the counter before leaving.

The bodyguard-like men behind Anne are all liquid metal robots that Andrew gave her, which are used to decorate Anne's façade.

Anne, who has inherited many godheads, and Old Nord, who has inherited the godhead of the god of fire, have no one who can hurt them in this time and space.

But as a person like Anne, there is always a need for followers around you.

So, there are these liquid metal robot guards.

The bell-sounding fire truck sped past in the direction of the bombed-out Cluffie company, and Anne walked leisurely in the opposite direction, with a charming smile on her face.

Having dealt with a malicious opponent, Anne was in a good mood at the moment.

From this moment on, there was no Cluffie family in 01 space, and Anne was excited every time she thought about it.

In the original plane, of course, she couldn't fight against the Cluffie family, but in this plane...... Hey, hey, hey!

Playing with violence, to be honest, Anne is not so strange!

Old Nord caught up with Anne at this time, and said in a whisper along with her: "There are some farmers who don't want to sell the land on the farm, and there are even some farmers who are in contact with some people in private, and I heard that they want to partner with those guys to operate oil extraction. ”

Anne held up a small lace-edged parasol, and a chill flashed at the corner of her mouth.

"Get rid of those pesky 'little vultures' and kill them if you don't listen to them!"
