Chapter 119 Fans Force Officials to Die
Then the relationship between the bakery lady and Gail is most likely a mutually beneficial one, and there will be no results. Although Sheffield does not agree that all good-looking people are the same, even if each is beautiful in their own way, there are many beautiful women who do not arouse his interest. But think about it, Natalia is really stunning.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Sheffield did not show any rejection when the girl greeted him carefully. He always believed that it was reasonable to use men as animals and women as men. However, because of the difference in gender, the means of breaking through the big filter are also different. Generally, men depend on how strong their hands are.
After waving and following Gale out of the station, Sheffield found a gap and asked, "I remember you have a fiancée. Be careful when dealing with this kind of problem."
"Don't worry, I won't go against my family's choice, but this girl is really good, and I will treat her as well as I can!" Gail said as they walked, "Speaking of this issue, her brother really wants to go to college, can you think of a way in Austin?"
"Is your brain rusty? Can ordinary people get into the University of Austin? Ordinary people either have to work hard to get in, or they need letters of recommendation. Every letter of recommendation consumes one's connections. You want me to recommend a commoner to get in?" Sheffield's tone became impolite, even when facing a partner.
As competition in the United States intensifies, corporate mergers will increase. No one can guarantee that they will always be invincible. Many current giants may fall into decline. They can't even kick people out, let alone bring people in? Was Gale drugged?
When it comes to maintaining the stability of his class, Sheffield's head is as stubborn as titanium alloy. If the girl Gail likes is allowed in, there is no problem. The girl's brother? Who does Sheffield know you?
"I'm just asking casually. It's okay to go to other universities." Gail blushed a little, knowing that his request was a bit too much.
"It's no use asking. University clubs focus on blood ties and connections, not ability!" Sheffield paused and said, "Even if you ask Laura and Carter, it's the same. You've been in Brazil for too long, so you may not understand the internal affairs of the United States. This requires gradual adjustment."
Although we were all partners in the same trench thirty years ago, now we are all second and third generation heirs. Because we are in different countries, some of our understandings are no longer the same.
Gale didn't take it too seriously. After explaining the interests involved, he understood the key point. He then talked about another matter, "William, do you know that our competitor is here?"
"Who? Keane? Just as my grandmother expected. His coming here can only mean one thing, that he did not get the support he wanted from Morgan. As for Boston, Keane is even less reliable. The families in Boston marry among themselves and are very xenophobic, otherwise they would not be suppressed by Morgan." Sheffield said as he walked.
Gail nodded frequently. He was not unfamiliar with the Boston families and many southern plantation owners. Their methods of accumulating their first pot of gold were exactly the same as those of Mrs. Anna in New Orleans thirty years ago. They made their first pot of gold by trading in labor, but they immediately switched to the banking industry and did not conflict with the Sheffield family.
"A visitor is a guest. Go and inform him. We can talk. We are all doing business. We don't have to make things too ugly." Sheffield believed that since the founder of the genuine United Fruit Company came to the door, it itself showed the direction of the wind.
Business matters do not necessarily have to be a matter of life and death! If Keane could recognize the times and choose the right tree for the right place, the two sides would not be unable to cooperate. At least he had the advantage of a few years and solved the problem without bloodshed, which is not unacceptable.
In the villa in Houston, Sheffield waited quietly for the other party to come, and even almost fell asleep due to the fatigue of the journey.
It was not until Edith Rockefeller pushed him awake that he opened his eyes, which had been closed at any time. Looking at the stranger in the living room, his good education played a huge role at this time. He greeted the guest in a daze, "I believe you are Mr. Keane. Although we have never met formally, I have been thinking about you for a long time."
I would rather not let you worry about it. Keane sighed in his heart and shook hands with Sheffield. "Of course I know the name of the Sheffield family. I came here to clarify the misunderstanding."
"That's all just a false reputation, something the newspapers wrote about me. My family is just a farmer, and there is no misunderstanding between us. These are all decisions we made after careful consideration. By the way, let me introduce you!" Sheffield yawned and pointed to Edith Rockefeller who was sitting next to him. "Mrs. Edith Rockefeller is visiting Texas recently, and it's a coincidence that Mr. Keane is here to visit as well."
Sheffield first corrected Keane's statement about the misunderstanding. There was no misunderstanding between the two sides. He already knew who his opponent was before the fight. At the same time, he introduced Edith Rockefeller's identity to increase his leverage. Sheffield, such a generous man, never cared about such small issues as whether to use women or not. As long as he achieved his goal, he didn't care if others said he was a gigolo.
To Keane, these words were a direct threat! Since it was not a misunderstanding, his cargo ship was naturally hijacked on purpose, and the other party never took him seriously. They didn't even bother to cover up anything.
Coupled with the ambiguous Standard Oil Princess next to him, Keane felt that his road to survival was so bumpy. Just when he was about to say something...
Sheffield suddenly said to McHale who was fiddling with the pistol, "Put the gun away!" Then he politely said to Keane, "In addition to running the farm, we also have to guard against attacks from dangerous wild animals. It makes sense to carry a gun with us!"
"Reasonable, very reasonable!" Keane forced a smile and nodded, as if accepting Sheffield's slow and gentle explanation.
"So as farmers, it is very reasonable for us to attach great importance to agricultural products!" Sheffield began to explain himself again, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "We are all simple farmers, and we have many people to feed. But someone wants to destroy our rice bowl, which is unacceptable."
Carefully organizing his words, Sheffield thought about how the founder of the genuine United Fruit Company could accept the fact that the official company was driven to death by the fans. He couldn't just take the initiative and say, "It would be better for everyone if you just let me swallow you up."
