In fact, no matter in that country, unless it is an individual genius who wants to make a difference, most of the time it is about seniority.

The reason why it is "most of the time" is that at some special moments, the process of ranking seniors will become very simple. This is the so-called "time to make heroes".

It is obvious that the United States has been a nation for more than a hundred years, and the class has begun to solidify. Even graduates of the Army Military Academy, it is not easy to make a name for themselves in the army, but it is different in Qing Dynasty. If Yan Shun returns to Qing Dynasty Rebellion, then the Qing Dynasty is in the period of changing the dynasty. At this time, the order will not play a major role. The new interest group will replace the vested interest group. A big man today may be the general of tomorrow. This is the so-called "conquering the dragon. "If you join the day earlier, you will benefit a day earlier. If it wasn't for Li Mu's lush foliage in the United States, Li Mu would not miss such an opportunity.

Li Mu was very impressed with another "island chain" in time and space. Therefore, in Li Mu's vision, whether it is Ryukyu or Luzon, or even Japan, it should be within the vision of the Chinese, that is, the so-called "first "Island chain" should be the first line of defense for Chinese against Western society, not the tool used by Western society to block Chinese.

This idea seems difficult to realize. In fact, it is not necessarily. Ryukyu is under the control of Bai Qi and Pan Tingzhen, Lu Song is under the control of Lin Xianghai, Japan's Tokugawa is just a tool for Li Mu to control Japan, and Li Mu has laid a firm foundation. In the future, it will be clear whether a country of insight can integrate these factors.

In other words, it depends on what achievements Yan Shun can make on this basis.

Of course, to create better convenience for Yan Shun, Washington's cooperation is also required. Li Mu went to Washington to find Arthur for this, hoping to get the support of the Pacific Fleet.

Arthur is currently wrestling for the James Bryan Act and Congress.

It is an interesting phenomenon. When Arthur submitted the James Blaine Bill to Congress, most of them approved were Republicans, while most of them opposed were Democrats.

It is not difficult to understand that, since Abraham Lincoln, the Republican Party has been in power for 20 years. For 20 years, the Republican Party has always held an absolute advantage in the federal government at all levels, but the Democratic Party ’s power has been repeatedly compressed. The Republican Party is a vested interest. Controls all aspects of the federal government. In the past, Republicans opposed the civilian system. Part of the reason was that most Republicans did not have a clear understanding of the situation. They also believed that the Republican Party could always suppress the Democratic Party, so they disagreed with the civil system. Sri Lanka ’s hasty has something to do with it. If Hayes took office, it was not so urgent because he drew too much from his allies to make concessions to the Democratic Party.

The situation is different now. In the past two decades, the people ’s tiredness of the Republican Party has deepened. Not only has the Democratic Party made a comeback in southern states, but several original Republican ticket booths have also shaken. Most Republicans have begun to realize that if the Republican Party does not take the initiative to change, Sooner or later, one day, the Republican Party will lose the popular hearts won by the Civil War and give up the presidency.

In this case, striving for change has become the consensus of most Republicans, and it is obvious that the James Bryan Act is a breakthrough. Everyone knows that sooner or later, the political party's fattening system will end, at least on the surface, In this case, why doesn't the Republican Party take the initiative to end the party's fattening system in order to win more favor from voters?

By the same token, the Democratic Party hopes to end the party ’s fattening system, but hopes to end the party ’s fattening system in the hands of the Democratic Party, so Arthur ’s initiative to propose the “Brian Blaine Act” is in the interests of the United States, but not in the interests of the Democratic Party. So more Democrats are opposed to the James Blaine Act.

Yes, this is democracy. Do n’t talk about benefiting the country and the people. The biggest drawback of the two parties ’governance is that the policy is not continuity. It only values ​​short-term interests and does not focus on the long-term because no one knows who can win the next term. Then the long-term consideration is to make marriage clothes for others. The voters will not analyze rationally. They only value the immediate interests. Whoever can bring them more benefits during their term of office, they will vote for whom. As for the policy—

Sorry, in the 21st century, there are still many Americans who think that the earth is not flat, because if the earth is flat, then the cat will push everything down.

This conclusion is correct, but the argument--

Well, I can only say that Americans are so cute.

This is true of Americans in the 21st century. Do n’t expect how sensible Americans are in the 19th century. The United States is a country where dogs can be elected mayors. This is not a joke but a fact. Although a bit ridiculous, it is also objective. Reflects the public's attitude towards leadership.

For the United States, Arthur's proposal of the "Brian Bryan Act" is definitely a good thing, so the "Brian Bryan Act" was passed in the first vote of the Senate, but in the House of Representatives, the "Brian Bryan Act" Encountered resistance, two consecutive votes, the "James Blaine Act" was not passed, so after seeing Li Mu, Arthur immediately raised this issue to Li Mu.

"I can't help it. I'm not a senator or a member of the House of Representatives. I've helped you as much as possible. You should go to dinner with Democrats and not let me help you." Li Mu I will not ask for trouble myself. Four years later, Li Mu does not know who to support, so at this time Li Mu's best choice is to watch the fire from the other side.

As far as I know, both Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison are likely to participate in the next presidential election. Li Mu and both of them have a good relationship. It doesn't matter who supports them. Whoever comes to power will give Li Mu the greatest support. So, Li Mu hasn't made up his mind yet. Let's talk about it later, in case Benjamin Harrison does not stand for election?

Then Li Mu has nothing to entangle.

"I will not eat with those Democrats. Even if they are invited to dinner, they will not support my proposal. In fact, it does not matter. If I can move this motion, it means that I do not have a vegetarian meal. This is enough. ——Well, what did you just say? Do you want to go back to Qing Dynasty? ”Arthur didn't hear what Li Mu said just now. It was so nice to see Li Mu. Although it was working time, Arthur couldn't help but have a drink. .

Li Mu and Arthur did not meet at the President ’s Palace, but at Li Mu ’s house on the shore of Luoying Lake. Li Mu did not want to go to the President ’s Palace. Every time I went to Li Mu, I felt very depressed. No need to look at others.

"No, I will not return. It is Leo. Leo goes to Qingguo on behalf of the Far East Company. If Qingguo cannot meet the requirements of the Far East Company, then Leo may use some unconventional methods, or may need the cooperation of the Pacific Fleet." Li Mu concealed Yan Shun's personal actions within the collective decision of the Far East Company, so that there is no reason for anyone to object.

The Far East Company is not a company of Li Mu alone. Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, Henry DuPont, and even Arthur are shareholders of the Far East Company. The Qing Dynasty then became the behavior of the Far East Company to develop the Qing Dynasty market. In this way, no matter what Yan Shun did, it was acceptable.

Don't underestimate the role of enterprises. It is still the 19th century. Enterprise behavior is often government behavior. The Opium War was promoted by the East India Company. , Very consistent with the company's consistent style.

Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me die!

"Isn't the Far East Company doing well in Luzon?" Perhaps because of drinking, Arthur's reaction was a bit slow, but after noticing Li Mu's helpless expression, Arthur immediately reacted: "Well, Well, in order to win more dividends for all shareholders, the Far East Company should continue to expand its business-you guys are really, never willing to stop. "

Arthur was right. In many cases, politicians' actions are simply too lagging behind businessmen. Who is most keen on expansion? Not a politician, nor a soldier, but a businessman. For expansion, the politician must bear the risk and the soldier must bear the casualties. The businessman pays only the cost, a little money, but if he succeeds, he can get ten times and hundred times the profit. Better business than this.

"Stop? How to stop? Continue to dig deep into the U.S. market or develop the European market? No, no, the U.S. market needs to be digged and the European market is also developed, but the Far East market will be the biggest profit growth point in the future, similar to the United States and Europe. In contrast, the Qing Dynasty is the last fertile virgin land in the world. The British and the French opened the door of the Qing Kingdom by opium, but they did not open the Qing Dynasty market. The benefits we only gained were that we could do business in the Qing Dynasty freely. The 'freedom' here You still need to add quotation marks. If you can completely develop the Qing Dynasty market, have you ever thought about what it means to the United States? "Li Mu began to admire his wealth. Although Arthur was a politician, Arthur was also a businessman. Li Mu believed Arthur understood.

Arthur did understand. Compared with the development of the European market, it is obviously easier to develop the Qing Dynasty market. As for digging into the domestic market in the United States, there is no need to worry. Anyway, the meat is rotten in the pot, Ulysses · The policies formulated by Grant during his term of office are still in play, and European companies are greatly restricted from entering the United States. These regulations do not conform to the spirit of "free trade", but who cares, compared with the national interest, the spirit!

Ha ha.

Li Mu's attitude is very simple. At first, the British and the French forced the Qing Dynasty to open the country through the Opium War. Now the United States can repeat its tricks. If the Far Eastern company's pioneering behavior in the Qing Dynasty is smooth, if not, then the Far East company needs the Pacific Ocean. The support of the fleet, even if it forced the Qing State to yield through warfare, was worthwhile.

In the original history, it was for this reason that the great powers led to the outbreak of the Eight-Power Allied Forces' invasion of China. Yihequan is only a fuse. Even if there is no Yihequan, there will be other fuses. To be beaten, the most fundamental confidence of the perpetrator is that you are beaten because you have beaten you. As for the reasons, they are just reasons, just like the little white rabbit who does n’t know whether he should wear a hat.

What Arthur didn't expect is that Li Mu really wanted to start a war, but the purpose of launching the war was not to open the Qing Dynasty market, or rather than just to open the Qing Dynasty market. Li Mu's real purpose was to overthrow the Qing government. There is no conflict of interests. After the overthrow of the Qing government, will the established regime close the country?

Certainly not.

"Rim, things are not that simple. You also know that the British and the French have coveted the Qing Dynasty market for a long time. The British and the French will not sit by and do whatever we want in the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty is different from Ryukyu and Luzon. This market is too big. Now, we ca n’t eat in the United States. ”Arthur was still sober about the current situation. Li Mu knew that the Qing Dynasty was the last piece of fat in the world. Of course, Britain and France also knew that the Qing government could maintain its rule in these years. Had it not been for Ning and AIA and domestic slaves, the Qing government would have been replaced by those local governors who were eager to move.

"Chester, I think that on this issue, the United States of America should make our own voice. Now all the countries in the world are fighting in the Qing Dynasty. We all know the countless interests of the Qing Dynasty. Everyone wants to monopolize. Even if they cannot monopolize, they cannot be monopolized by others. People take away, so can we come up with a solution to the problem? For example: the door is open. "Li Mu made a suggestion to Arthur. This suggestion may have been made earlier, but it can certainly transfer the English and French. attention.

Well, there should have been Russians, but the Russians are now very weak and have no energy to consider the issue of the Qing Dynasty. With the establishment of Vladivostok, the Russians must also start to consider the security of Siberia. Compared with the Qing Dynasty, Siberia is Russia's core interests.

In another spacetime, the open door policy is a policy proposed by the United States in 1899. The core of this policy is that the United States requires all interests to be involved while recognizing the "sphere of influence" of the powers in China and the privileges they have obtained. Treaties, ports, or any vested interests do not interfere, and countries within their respective "spheres of influence" must not impose higher fees on other countries' ships and freight rates than their own.

This is actually an agreement to divide the loot, without taking into account the reaction of the Qing Dynasty. In fact, the Western powers have never considered the interests of the Qing Dynasty. This point has always been pragmatic for Westerners.
