729 Protest
"Reim, you make me very passive now. Even the men of Congress know that your Far East Company has done something that our War Department has not done. I have to say, you, the arms dealer, really surprised me. It seems that we are just waiting to pick peaches." Sherman came to New York in person and complained to Li Mu at the cocktail party held by Rockefeller.
Sherman is not allowed to complain. The Spanish ambassador to the United States filed a solemn protest against Washington over the attacks of the Far East Company. The protests raised by the Spanish ambassador to the United States are similar to threats. If Washington does not punish the Far East Company for its attacks, Spain will raise this matter to the extent of war.
It must be said that Washington politicians do not care about the threat from the Spanish. The whole world knows that Spain is strong outside and the middle. What Washington politicians care about is that if the Ministry of War does not act in time, it may lose the interests that originally belonged to the United States, which is unacceptable to politicians.
"Yes, if your War Department wants to be lazy, then you just need to wait to pick peaches, but I want to remind you that the amount of peaches depends on the degree of effort. It may be the majority, or part, or even none of them." As the executive director of Far East Company, Li Mu responded to Sherman's complaints. Of course, Li Mu was not worried about this issue, and Sherman's complaints were not serious. Li Mu and Sherman's relationship was very good, at least better than Sherman and the men of Congress.
"Don't be arrogant. Without the cooperation of the Pacific Fleet, you will not be able to win the final victory, so you'd better be careful and don't wait for the harvest season." Sherman was not in a hurry, the shortcomings of the Far East Company were obvious.
"Hey, hey, don't quarrel at my banquet. I'm in a good mood now, don't force me to drive you out." Rockefeller finally had time to come over to greet Li Mu and Sherman. Seeing Sherman's face full of resentment, Rockefeller deliberately joked.
Of course it is impossible to drive out. Standard oil is huge and not as big as the Ministry of War. Compared with politicians, businessmen have a much smaller influence on soldiers, except for arms dealers like Li Mu.
"Another shareholder of Far East Company, what's wrong? You guys are all poisoned by Reim." Sherman was in a bad mood and didn't like anyone now.
"Brother, do you know how many people you offended by this sentence? Be careful, you almost offended most of the American business community." Li Mu now has enough allies, and the shareholders of the Far East Company can almost determine the emergence of the president, so Sherman is going to New York to find Li Mu, instead of Li Mu running to Washington to meet Sherman.
"Speak serious Reim, I want your Far East Company to slow down, at least wait for the Pacific Fleet to be fully prepared and keep pace with the Pacific Fleet." Although she knew that Li Mu was joking, Sherman was still shocked by Li Mu's words. Others did not know the details of the Far East Company. Sherman knew very well that if the shareholders of the Far East Company were unhappy, the whole United States would be in an earthquake.
