Chapter 211 Arrival in Manila

He took a deep breath, and he was intoxicated! Sheffield found a little bit of the feeling of the slave owners back then, distorting other people's lives, and it felt so good. But it was only a little bit, after all, many southern slave owners could do something to black girls, which was better than him. Sheffield admitted that he couldn't do this.

Otherwise, where did the mixed-race group in the United States come from? The rights of whites and blacks are very different. It must be that the majority of whites can't control their crotches. In the environment of the 19th century, if blacks wanted to do something to white women, the most common consequence was being shot.

Otherwise, why do some people always want to live in a powerful country? This sense of superiority is indeed intoxicating, especially when used when bullying others. After a few minutes, Minako Sato tidied her messy hair and wrapped her undulating body in a kimono. She came out carefully. If you look closely, you can see that the corners of her eyes are still a little red and swollen.

"Madam, there is no need to be too sad. I believe that Mr. Sato's spirit in heaven would not want you to live an unhappy life. As an honest partner, I have good business ethics and will be responsible for the Sato family's assets." As soon as Sheffield saw the clues left by Sato Minako, in order to maintain the boss's prestige in front of the bodyguards, he spoke first and attributed these clues to the reason of seeing the object reminding people of the person.

"Thank you Mr. William for your concern!" Sato Minako's tears almost burst out, and she could hardly suppress the grievance and guilt in her heart. As a wife, she felt sorry for her husband and betrayed Sato Jiexiong who just died. She even had to thank this bastard.

"Oh, in that case, the contract will be officially signed tomorrow, and other members of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce will come together." Sheffield nodded calmly, and he didn't feel guilty at all. It was nonsense to talk about the national consciousness of the previous life and find excuses for bullying the Japanese. He just fell in love with the bodies of Sato and her daughter, and put it into action.

And this is not too much, anyway, it just brings forward the treatment of American soldiers by a few decades. It is a preview of the new relationship between the United States and Japan. Sooner or later, Japan and the United States will go to war.

If you want to blame someone, blame Japan for not being strong enough to afford the cost of provoking a war. After Sheffield left, Sato Minako hurried back to the house, washed herself vigorously, and silently said sorry to her husband's portrait.

This matter had nothing to do with Sheffield. Even when Jesla asked about this woman's reluctance, Sheffield evaded the question by saying that the country had relations with her country. "These Japanese have ambitions for Hawaii. Now I am here on behalf of the United Company to merge the Japanese industry into a trust. Of course they are unwilling, but it doesn't matter. I will get used to it in the future."

Sheffield never mentioned his private criminal behavior and pushed the issue onto national relations and Japanese national consciousness. He thought he was doing nothing wrong. He was also an outstanding young business representative of the United States, a leader in quality education, a director of the International Olympic Committee, and a role model of patriotic businessmen.

Sheffield used some tricks against the Japanese forces. What was wrong with that? Was it all for the sake of the country? He even sacrificed his personal reputation for this. Thinking of this, the slave owner's lower body began to rise slightly. Time was running out and there was no deep cooperation.

A few days later, Sheffield led American farmers and Japanese businessmen to officially hold a press conference to establish a sugar company. Both sides also sat down and took a group photo. This was an important step in the transformation of the joint company into a multinational corporation. Didn’t you see that almost half of the members in the photo had Asian faces?

The newly selected United Bank Hawaii headquarters is a five-story building. Sheffield was holding the group photo, looking at each person in it, and looking up from time to time. Compared with her image in the photo, why did Minako Sato, who was sitting opposite her, look so much more mediocre in the photo?

Now Sheffield finally realized that black and white photos are very friendly to white people, and are even more unfriendly to other races. Sato Minako is obviously a very beautiful woman. In the photo, her appearance is not much different from Edith Rockefeller. She has seen both women. To be honest, Sato Minako is considered to be one of the most beautiful Japanese women.

Minako Sato was constantly stared at, and she felt uneasy, as if she was a commodity being monitored at all times. Her husband had never expressed his possessiveness so directly. Especially since there were only two people in the office, she felt very cramped.

"Mrs. Sato, don't be so nervous!" Sheffield still sat over and squeezed next to Sato Minako. "Madam is still so young, and Sato Jiexiong is so old. I can take care of you on his behalf."

"Mr. William, don't say that!" Sato Minako's eyes were full of pleading, "Please don't mention my husband, okay? I'm sorry for him..."

If you knew that I was the one who carried out the assassination, would you go crazy? Sheffield held the woman in his arms and said, "Mr. Sato must also want you to be happy. We are already partners. There will be no disturbance in the lives of you and your daughter in the future. I can guarantee this. Let's talk about in-depth cooperation!"

Under the passive resistance of Sato Minako, Sheffield got what he wanted again. The happiness of power is so simple and boring. He successfully achieved his goals from both public and private aspects. Sheffield, who has been paying attention to the progress of the Philippines, is thinking about when to leave.

He was now thankful that the United States was still in a political environment of keeping a low profile. If it was really like what some people said, fighting here and there, wouldn't he have spent a lot of time traveling to various colonies? That was fine, but his waist couldn't take it.

"If a new leader emerges in the Japanese Chamber of Commerce in a short period of time and there is a tendency for Mrs. Sato to replace her, then it can be basically confirmed that this person must be related to the Japanese government. This shows that the Japanese government still has no ambitions for Hawaii." Compared to when he just arrived in Hawaii, Sheffield looked quite relaxed. He got almost everything that Hawaii had and could live a relaxing life for a few days.

"Mr. William seems to trust a Japanese woman?" Sanford Dole looked at the young rich man with a sunny face and seemed a little hasty.

"It's not that I trust Japanese women, but women are more trustworthy than Japanese men. Women are different from men. For women in Eastern countries, the biggest wish is to live a life where everything is provided for them. Men in Eastern countries also like this kind of life, but they usually have to take women's needs into consideration. Men have too many desires, such as money, power, fame, etc. This alone is unpredictable. Women are relatively easier to deal with."

Sheffield said something that female boxers in later generations would definitely not want to hear, but this is the truth. The world in later generations is relatively peaceful, which is why there is room for female boxers to survive. In fact, the more turbulent and war-torn the times, the greater the advantages of men. No country would expect women to be the main force in resisting invasion.

The more difficult the times, the more important it is to protect men's basic needs. Women are just accessories in difficult times. Of course, if the situation gets even more difficult, they may even become food.

“As for maintaining the balance of the Hawaiian Islands, since Japan has already fought a war with China, the Chinese can temporarily become a balancing force. In theory, it would be best for our citizens to immigrate to Hawaii. However, the conditions do not exist at present, and there are too few citizens who would give up their lives in the country and come to an archipelago.” Sheffield shook his head slightly and talked freely in front of Sanford Dole about how to manage Hawaii, as if he were the quasi-governor of Hawaii.

In fact, it was almost done. The United Company would control the mainstay sugar industry in Hawaii. In this sense, Sheffield had more influence on Hawaii than Sanford Dole. Not to mention the United Bank that had already been established.

Sheffield actually had nothing to gain from Sanford Dole. He was a very realistic person. Hawaii's value had been squeezed out, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.

Supporting the Chinese to check the Japanese is the best option now, and the United Company is also prepared to do so. In fact, he is not only doing this in Hawaii, but also in the Philippines.

Because Sheffield had received news from the Philippines yesterday that the American Expeditionary Force had captured Manila, and the Spanish garrison had surrendered and transferred control of Manila to the United States after reaching a secret agreement with the United States. The surrender of the Spanish garrison meant that the Philippines had theoretically become independent.

However, Sheffield knew that this was just the beginning. The Philippine rebels were the main enemy of the US military. Currently, the US military was stationed in Manila, while the rebels were temporarily stationed in the suburbs. The two sides would continue to play catch-up for a while.

Sheffield had never felt that the United States needed his help so much, and he was ready to leave for the Philippines. At the port of Hawaii, Sheffield brought a much larger entourage and boarded the ship amid the perfunctory farewell of American and Japanese expatriates. Seeing these Japanese people waving flags weakly, it was clear that these Japanese people were still unwilling to accept it.

In mid-August, after another time-wasting journey, Sheffield arrived in the Philippines during the war window, got off the ship and quickly entered the city of Manila.

At this time, Manila was under the control of the US military, and the US Expeditionary Force had a commander named Arthur MacArthur. George Dewey was very confused when he heard that a wealthy man from China came to the Philippines where war was imminent, but he still agreed to the request after receiving it.

"How dare he not see me! The fresh canned food for the entire expeditionary force is provided by the United Company. If he makes me angry, he will just keep eating beef jerky!" Sheffield muttered nonchalantly.
