Chapter 25 The Lord is with me
"Look, this is the heir of my family. The food chain relationship, what a novel conclusion. It is a thousand times or ten thousand times better than some Yankees who are seeking fame and reputation. Those Yankees who are glamorous on the surface cannot be compared with my heir at all." Annabelle was amazed while holding the telegram. In fact, Lafayette did not fully understand what these things meant, but since it was written by the heir, it was a treasure belonging to all mankind.
Annabell firmly believed in this, and hadn't she received praise from President Austin? If other professors were just trying to flatter him, Got Davis definitely wouldn't. She had some understanding of this fake noble person. Pretending to be noble until one believes it is also a skill.
"The young master is so outstanding. Madam has finally waited for a qualified heir." The servants on the side congratulated with a smile.
"Padra, you are right about this. How can such a large industry always be supported by a woman? If I hadn't given birth to a failure in my life, I wouldn't have to work so hard as I do now." Annabell looked straight at the servant and forced a gloomy smile. "The story of starting from scratch is certainly beautiful, but William is destined to be far away from such a success story. We, the heirs of the Sheffield family, must start faster than others. If others can walk, we must run. Since William has an impressive foundation, I will do it bigger this time."
"Madam, please give me your orders!" Padella nodded slightly, waiting for Annabelle's next instruction.
"First of all, I want to know whether this article is plagiarized. It would be best if no one has ever made a similar argument. But if someone has, that's fine too. It's my heir now." Annabell rolled her eyes and asked calmly.
"No similar arguments have been found regarding the relationship in the food chain, don't worry, ma'am," Padella replied quickly.
"I hope that the food chain and endangered native animals can be widely discussed, so newspaper reports are needed in two batches. First, the newspapers in this state need to have enough influence. It will take a few days to wait for public opinion to form, and then notify newspapers in southern states to report on it. This is far from enough." Annabell paused when she said this, thought for a moment and said, "What I hope is that everyone knows the existence of the heir of the Sheffield family in the shortest possible time. So, you go call the mayor of Houston. If possible, I hope to initiate a proposal to make the bison the state animal of Texas and a symbol."
"I'll contact them right away, ma'am!" Padella nodded and backed out of the room as if she had eyes behind her head.
Although he had been mentally prepared, Sheffield didn't know that a woman who had supported a family for decades could indeed look so terrible in some ways. The speed at which the news spread far exceeded his expectations. This should be the most efficient fermentation of public opinion in this era. This shows the power of Karl Lagerfeld in Texas.
This operation can be described as dazzling. The concept of food chain quickly spread from the University of Texas at Austin to the Houston Daily News. You should know that these are two different cities. Although Austin is the capital, the largest city in Texas is actually Houston, and the population here is the largest in Texas.
As for the page, it had to be the front page headline. Within a few days, the Dallas City Government began to propose and discuss the idea of using the North American bison as the city's mascot. The news spread so quickly that it quickly attracted discussion from the state government.
"Dallas? Mavericks?" Sheffield has the habit of reading newspapers. After all, it is an important source of information in this era. However, after flipping through several newspapers in a row, he now says that there is no driving force behind this. Even if his face defense can withstand Big Ivan, he can see that someone is creating momentum. But isn't it a bit too high-profile?
"It's actually hard to believe that the person who came up with such a macro concept as the food chain was actually a college student. He was only sixteen years old. However, a sixteen-year-old college student is already an eye-catching presence. With ten years of experience as an editor, I can say that this student is undoubtedly a genius."
"Old Buddha... Grandma is not afraid that I will become a disgrace for being forced to promote her. Now I understand a little bit why my father, whom I have only met a few times, has been living a life of luxury in Paris. Most people really can't stand it."
Empress Lü Wuhuang? Or Empress Jia Cixi? In Sheffield's opinion, they were just different times and countries, but they were essentially the same kind of people. Wouldn't ordinary people be driven crazy by the existence of such a grandmother?
Sheffield thought that if Annabell had more sons, she might not have gone to such extremes. It might be that because of the small number of children, she wanted to produce an outstanding heir.
At this time, he had successfully obtained his diploma and was on his way back to Arlington, with everyone in Texas paying attention to him, but no one really knew who he was. This situation was very strange. I could hear many people talking about why all the newspapers were publishing the same thing, what is the food chain? Who is this student, but no one really knows who he is. It was like being in the eye of a storm, with mountains roaring and seas outside, but the surroundings were as quiet as a chicken.
As soon as he got off the train at Arlington, someone was already waiting outside and came directly to greet him, "Master, the old lady is waiting for you at the church!"
"Ah?" Sheffield was surprised. Why would he choose that kind of place? But despite his doubts, he still dared not neglect to get on the carriage. Could it be that he had made such a big fuss and felt a little regretful in his heart, and was confessing to God? It was not impossible.
Soon Sheffield realized that he had thought too much, and this grandmother was not that kind of person at all. When he arrived at the church, he stood behind Annabelle and looked at this terrifying woman, who seemed to be very pious and bowed her head and clasped her hands to God.
Sheffield, who was waiting quietly, hadn't prepared to say anything when he saw the diploma handed over by Annabell. After just a glance, Sheffield's face was full of impatience, "A degree in theology?"
"I bought it! I don't need to worry about such trivial matters, but everyone in the United States must recognize this degree." Annabelle said calmly, her voice still as cold as ever.
"Grandma, to be honest, I'm not interested in theology." Sheffield carefully organized his words, wondering what was going on today.
Before he could finish the second half of his sentence, Annabelle spoke up without any surprise, "That's what your grandfather said back then. But in the end, I succeeded in making him believe."
Some means must have been used. Sheffield did not believe that his predecessors, who were educated by later generations, and most likely Chinese people, would believe in such nonsensical things.
"Have you read the Bible?" Annabell restrained her expression, as if she had gone back to thirty years ago and brainwashed the men in this family for the second time.
"No!" Sheffield looked at Mr. Lafayette in confusion and answered honestly, what does it matter?
"If you have read the Bible, you should know something!" Annabelle said coldly to the high cross, "Tear down the Tower of Babel, divide the united human race, launch a flood to destroy the world, blind people's eyes, erase their ability to think, and trap them in meaningless lives, establish hierarchy and order, but when people face him, they need to have a spirit of sacrifice, dedication and humility! What is your ideal?"
"The Lord is with me!" Annabell lowered her head and clasped her hands together, her look becoming very sincere again.
"The Lord is with me!" Sheffield, with a blank mind, followed like a puppet. Annabell was right. People like him should be with the Lord and use the Lord's methods to deal with others.
Already signed.
