Chapter 273 Diverting Conflicts

In fact, this is a bit unfair to Sheffield. Even for the white people who are the backbone of the United States, he can find workers who can endure sixteen-hour work. To say this to the Chinese workers is simply reverse racial discrimination, and it is also a betrayal of his own country.

From a normal perspective, they should have been deceived first, and then used their labor without paying wages. But considering 70% of the wages, it is not so difficult to accept. To be fair, because of family ties, most southern farmers, including Sheffield, know that blacks are the most suitable workers, not considering the technical field, but the labor intensity as the standard.

If you catch up with the cotton harvest, you have to work for several days without sleep. Neither the yellow race nor the white race can stand it. Black people are the best for such labor intensity all year round. But the national environment has changed. The only advantage of black people in terms of physical fitness has been offset, while their disadvantages have been magnified. They are no longer the best labor force.

"Don't be so quick to thank me. If I can't finish the work by the deadline, you will see what my true nature is like." Sheffield stopped Zhang Deqing from expressing his gratitude. "If I coughed in front of black people 30 years ago, they would have been unable to sleep all night. You can be considered to have been saved by the times."

"Don't worry, boss. We Chinese have always believed that hard work pays off!" Zhang Deqing nodded continuously. Having a job is a good thing.

"Well, you East Asians all have this characteristic. Now we need you to bring this characteristic into play. Do your job well, and your share will be change." Sheffield thought about the countries with the greatest work pressure in future generations, and China was among the top, but not as abnormal as South Korea.

South Korea's survival pressure should be the first among developed countries. In addition, the country is small, the population is small, and the ceiling is low. It is really not a good country to survive. First give the profits to the United States, then satisfy the domestic chaebols, and then their own. With this in mind, it is completely understandable that South Korea's birth rate is lower than Japan.

"Wait until the residential area is cleared, then you can start demolishing the houses!" Although Sheffield was very courageous, he did not dare to use Chinese workers to incite hatred. Once this thing involved race, the backlash would be out of control.

No matter what, citizens of this country would never accept a group of outsiders shouting at them. Out of respect for his past life, he would not deliberately harm the Chinese workers, but he would not let them take advantage of him either. "What you can learn is your own hard work. I will not interfere."

"Okay, thank you boss for the opportunity!" Zhang Deqing thanked, "We will definitely complete the project on schedule."

"I'm waiting!" Sheffield smiled indifferently. He did not reject the idea of ​​the Chinese workers learning something. In fact, learning something is always beneficial. Although real estate will not be a high-end industry in a hundred years, in this era, it is an industry connecting steel and cement after all. These are important indicators of a country.

If some Chinese workers want to return to China one day, it will be of some benefit to their own country. As for the Qing Dynasty, Sheffield adheres to the principle of non-interference, non-questioning, and non-knowing. Without exerting influence, the best result is that history does not change. This is the best result.

It is inevitable that China will be beaten in modern times. It depends on whether it can maintain its vitality. Chinese civilization is not 500 or 1,000 years ahead of the world, but it has strong vitality and long life. In fact, surviving in adversity is already a very remarkable achievement.

"Are you done talking?" Natalia waited until the guests left before appearing and sitting directly on Sheffield's lap. "Can these Asians be trusted? You seem to think highly of them?"

"It is important to take it seriously. All other indicators are fake. Only territory and population are real. Large territory means more potential resources, and large population means greater mobilization." Sheffield sighed while holding the little girl. "A country like Japan is not worth paying attention to at all. How strong can it be? There are two countries that the United States can really look up to. One is your hometown, and the other is the hometown of the Chinese workers."

"It's so rare to hear you praise a country!" Natalia looked surprised. She had never heard Sheffield talk about other countries, and this was the first time she heard it today.

"It's not a compliment, it's about recognizing where the enemy is! What I hope is that the country I live in is stronger than any other country. In this way, the citizens will not make trouble. But now Britain is the most powerful, why haven't they gone to hell yet?" Sheffield laughed and cursed the current world hegemon without hesitation, hoping that day would come sooner.

Like Canada and Australia, the population is too small to support such a large area, and it is destined to be a resource country. Sooner or later, it will fall into the hands of the United States.

Moreover, these two countries will not change color, and it is basically impossible for immigrants to steal. Even if they are willing, the United States will not be willing. Australia has long implemented the White Australia Policy, prohibiting non-white immigrants from entering Australia, which is only slightly better than the white South Africa period.

As for Canada, although it has some white left ideas, if the federal government really takes action, this country will eventually stand with the United States. Some people say that because the two countries have sparse populations, they may be stolen by foreign immigrants.

This idea is based on the assumption that the main ethnic groups in these two countries are all idiots, and they ignore the growing foreign ethnic groups. As long as the population of a country is not entirely made up of idiots, it cannot be considered that the foreign immigration population is really large.

Now Sheffield's mid-term dream is to open joint companies throughout the Five Eyes Alliance and become the richest man in the five countries. For this dream, he still has to work hard.

The Chinese workers were placed on a large farm in the northern suburbs of New Orleans, and employees of the Black Gold Company were on guard nearby. Land was not a problem for Sheffield, and he believed that the Chinese workers could be self-sufficient, after all, this was a basic skill of the Chinese in the agricultural era.

At the same time, in the upper reaches of the Mississippi River, ships carrying steel have started, and trains are also running on the railway lines. As for cement, this ubiquitous raw material can be obtained in Louisiana.

While the demolition work was underway, reports that Sheffield would transform New Orleans into a southern center and an economic capital facing Latin America began to circulate in newspapers.

It is said that the boss of the United Company wants to build New Orleans into an important center for Latin American trade. The overall plan is to build a garden city similar to Paris. Paris is a business card of France. In fact, in the eyes of citizens of many countries, Paris is much more famous than London.

Paris is so famous that it should be regarded as a model of marketing. For a long time, even in Asia, Paris is the most ideal city to live in. Even the Japanese have a complex about Paris. Speaking of the Japanese complex about Paris, those who like to watch Japanese dramas should feel it. There are often some plots about France in Japanese dramas, and occasionally a few French lines will pop up.

Paris syndrome has even emerged in Japan, a psychological disease caused by the huge difference between the real Paris and the imagination of Japanese tourists. Symptoms include nausea, insomnia, convulsions, indescribable fear, inferiority, shame, paranoia, and even suicidal tendencies.

The United States also has a similar admiration for France, with Vanderbilt II and Edith Rockefeller being representatives of the city. The citizen class's yearning for Paris far exceeds that for London.

Sheffield was very clear about this, and then he used the newspaper reports about New Orleans being the Paris of the United States to collect statistics. Sure enough, he found that the reported sales had increased to varying degrees, confirming that this marketing attempt to imitate Paris was very successful.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"What kind of magic does Paris have?" Sheffield was surprised by the enthusiastic response. One can imagine the extent of discussion among citizens about whether New Orleans is imitating Paris.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. Since it has aroused discussion among the entire citizen class, Sheffield knows that he must make something out of it this time. On the basis of squeezing out the maximum benefits, he must make the project acceptable, and this requires the cooperation of the citizens!

But not all citizens can consider the overall situation. Sheffield prayed that there would be no setbacks, but something went wrong. McHale hurried back to Oak Manor and said, "Some residents are unwilling to move, saying that they can't find a temporary house to live in."

"After all, some citizens' ideological awareness is still unable to adapt to the arrival of the American century." Sheffield sighed and said indifferently, "Kick them out and tell them that if they make trouble again, they will lose everything."

"We've actually expelled them once, but they seem to have colluded and are determined to go against us. I've asked someone to ask them what their conditions are. If they're not excessive, we can talk." McHale looked a little worried. "If they ask for too much, will there be trouble?"

"Why are you being polite to those black people?" Sheffield looked up indifferently and said, "We should notify the state police immediately and kick all these bastards out!"

"It's not the black community!" McHale wanted to continue explaining, but suddenly froze and asked uncertainly, "Is it the black community's problem?"

"That's right, it's a black people's problem!" Sheffield emphasized word by word. "If it really doesn't work, you can let black employees in to fill in the numbers. Even if there is only one black person among the troublemakers, use this as an excuse to beat them to death. If we turn this issue into a racial issue, it won't be us bullying ordinary citizens. Do you understand? We can divert the conflict."
