662 Disaster

Life is like a reincarnation, no one can escape the judgment of fate as to what is sown and what is fruited.

After the French occupation of Haiti, King Louis XIV of France issued the Negro Decree, which stipulated in the form of a law that plantations mainly provided adequate food, clothing, and lodging for slaves, but also allowed plantation owners to inflict all kinds of cruel corporal punishment on black slaves.

In an environment without supervision, the potential evil side of human nature is infinitely magnified, black people are treated inhumanely in the plantation, they are tortured by the plantation owners for even the slightest mistake in their work, many plantation owners even take pleasure in abusing and killing black people, black people are crucified on wooden boards, buried alive, put into sacks and thrown into the river, thrown into boiling water and boiled alive, tied to cannons and blasted, and even some plantation owners feed black people to dogs-

Heaven is a good reincarnation, all kinds of evil deeds inflicted on blacks by whites, blacks have not forgotten, once they have the opportunity, blacks will give back this tyranny to whites, and do it more thoroughly.

In 1791, 200,000 black slaves rioted in the northern plains of Haiti, and the Haitian authorities were powerless to control it, so they could only pin their hopes on France mainland and hope that the French government would send troops to suppress it.

But the political situation in France was also in turmoil until September of the following year, when the ruling Jacobins reluctantly assembled an army to send troops to Haiti, but this army was not to suppress the black riots, but to promote the idea of "liberty, equality, fraternity", in an attempt to soften the black efforts to soften the confrontation in this way.

To say that the French were also naïve, the probation of the army did not play any role, and in the end they had to cooperate with the rebels, which led to a further deterioration of the situation.

Seeing that the riots in Haiti were becoming more and more difficult to control, Spain and Britain could not sit still, fearing that Haiti's neighbors Saint-Domingue and Jamaica's blacks would be affected by the Haitian riots, both countries sent expeditionary forces to Haiti, one of which was captured by British troops in Port-au-Prince in March 1794, which was welcomed by the French colonists.

The French were again in a daze, perhaps fearing that British intervention would lead to the colony getting out of control, or perhaps resentment of the British was the main reason, but in 1795, an anti-British uprising orchestrated by the French forced the British to withdraw their troops.

After the British retreated, the situation in Haiti was completely out of control, and the blacks slaughtered more than 10,000 mixed-race women and children in the south and west, and then 2,000 whites in Cap-de-France, 800 in Port-au-Prince, and 400 in Gérémi.

Jérémi's family is the victim of the Jerémi massacre, not to mention whether Jerémi's ancestors used brutal methods against the black people in the first place, the "massacre" itself is an act against humanity, and it must be resisted by all mankind, which is absolutely intolerable.

Li Mu also could not tolerate the "massacre" of this completely dehumanizing behavior, the Chinese have been slaughtered many times in history, so Li Mu deeply abhors this behavior of Haitian blacks, whether it is a white or black person, or a yellow race, this kind of behavior should be unanimously condemned by all mankind.

Li Mu did not directly promise Jeremi, Li Mu still has to weigh this matter, and then decide how to cut in and to what extent.

It just so happened that the current Secretary of State, William Evatt, was on vacation in Miami, and later on, Li Mu took the "Sea Ranger" to Miami to seek William Evatt's opinion.

As a client, Jeremi had the opportunity to go to Miami with Li Mu.

"If you have the opportunity to meet Mr. Secretary of State, remember, you must not be too eager, what you have to do is to tell the truth, and as for what the big guys will choose, that's their business." On the back deck of the Sea Ranger, Cole once again reminded Jeremy not to be impulsive and mix too much personal emotion, which might backfire.

"Mr. Ream will help me, right-" Jeremy pinned all his hopes on Li Mu, as long as Li Mu was willing to speak, then Jeremi would have a better chance of completing his revenge.

"Of course, Mr. Ream will certainly help you, and the fact that you have the opportunity to stand on the deck of the Sea Ranger speaks volumes about Mr. Reem's attitude, and before I meet Mr. Secretary, I have a question for you, if possible - I mean, if you have the chance, how are you prepared to accomplish your revenge?" Cole was kind and seductive, and raised a question that Li Mu was most concerned about.

Li Mu can't ask this question, if Li Mu asks it, it will affect Li Mu's personality, so it's most appropriate to let Cole ask, anyway, Cole also has a nickname called "human trafficker" in the United States, and Li Mu's "arms trafficker" is not inferior to the worst degree, and Cole and Gerémi's ancestors are engaged in the same profession, which will allow Cole and Jeremy to find more common language.

"I will do to them as they would have treated us, and there is no need to have any mercy for these ungrateful people, and if possible, I would like to fill them all in the Cuban Strait, even if it is because of the blockage of the Cuban Strait." In her heart, Jerémie felt a terrible hatred for throwing all the black Haitians into the fire and burning them to death.

Speaking of the "slave trafficking", from the perspective of the 21st century, this is of course an extremely dark period of history in the entire history of mankind, but in the 19th century, especially in the eyes of the descendants of these "traffickers", "slave trafficking" is really not a matter of conscience, and for many people, even those who have nothing to do with this matter, "slave trafficking" is just a business, and the word "crime" cannot be equated at all.

Perhaps, in the eyes of many people engaged in the slave trade, it is a thing that should make blacks grateful to them to be able to take black Africans out of the backward and ignorant environment of Africa and make them feel the glory of the civilized world, but now the original "benefactor" has been slaughtered, which is unacceptable to Jerémi in any way.

"You are right, we have to admit that although the black people have alleviated the labor crisis to a certain extent, the negative impact of the black epidemic is greater, and now these negative effects have begun to appear, I believe that with the passage of time, the negative impact will become bigger and bigger, and eventually it may affect the normal operation of the civilized world, in this regard, I have to say that the Chinese represented by Mr. Ream are more excellent, and even excellent is surprising, after all, this is a nation with a long history and a complete heritage." Cole's words were mixed with too many private goods, and it was most appropriate for Cole to say it, if Li Mu said it, it might be counterproductive.

"Yes, during my time in Taoyuan City, I have fully felt all this, can you imagine that in the Bahamas, there is a city with an amazing degree of civilization, I believe that even New York and London are just like that." Geremi praised Taoyuan City, and it seems that Taoyuan City made a deep impression on Geremi.

"Believe me, New York and London are not as good as Taoyuan, at least there are no slums in Taoyuan, as long as you are willing to work, in Taoyuan, people can always get paid." In this regard, Cole has more say than Jérémie, who has never been to a big city, and although Cole has never been to London, from the analysis of known reports, there are only rotten aristocrats and old houses in old style in London than in New York.

"I really hope that one day we can build a city like Taoyuan in Haiti, and as for Port-au-Prince and Jérémie, let them all be reduced to ashes with all this." Gérémie finally strengthened his conviction and sketched a new Haiti in his mind, a city made up of whites and Chinese.

That's not bad either.

As the secretary of state, William Evatt is indeed busy with official business, but the reality of the United States is like this, the more you can live, the more you can work, so when it is time to take a vacation, let the body and brain be fully relaxed, so that you can work better, so William Evaert came to Miami, hoping that the sun and sand here can make William Evatt wash away his fatigue and start again.

During this time, as the relationship between Mr. President and the New York tycoons warmed, William Evatt's work was much easier, and in winter, relatively speaking, it was the easiest time of the year for government affairs, so William Evatt finally got a week's vacation, which was precious to William Evatt.

Li Mu's appearance brought a bad premonition to William Evatt, but fortunately, this did not disgust William Evatt, or rather, William Evatt was not qualified to be disgusted, so that Li Mu could give up the official duties that he had to deal with on vacation, and William Evatt had no reason to refuse.

"Quelling the riots in Haiti, it's not within our scope of work—" After listening to Li Mu's words, William Evatt said that he had a headache, and sure enough, it would be nothing good for the arms dealers to come to the door.

"But within our capabilities, if the United States wants to have more influence in South America, if the United States wants to gain more room for development, then we have to actively get involved in international affairs, otherwise why should others pay attention to you?" Li Mu half lay down and half leaned on the beach chair, enjoying the sunshine that was not inferior to that of the Bahamas.

Well, this is a polite statement, in fact, the sunshine in Miami is still worse than the sunshine in the Bahamas, although the sunshine in Miami is also warm, but it still has a bit of the coldness of the northern continent, and the sunshine in the Bahamas also has the breath of the tropical sea, which always makes people unconsciously intoxicated.

"What you say makes a lot of sense, tell me what you think, how far can we go?" When it comes to international influence, William Evatt finally picks up his spirits.

If the United States can defend the interests of white people in Haiti, then it will not only expand the international influence of the United States, but also give the United States a wave of goodwill in the civilized world, which will eventually become the political achievements of Hayes and William Evatt, and become a part of American history, William Evatt is not interested in Haiti, but is full of interest in being a part of American history.

"It depends on our determination, now that the conditions are in place, the victims of the Jérémie massacre are over there, whether for humanitarian reasons or for the sake of justice, we have enough reasons and the Haitians are ready enough chips that the United States can gain a loyal ally in the international arena like the United States of Cuba and the Republic of Panama, without even doing anything from the Presidential Palace." Li Mu really doesn't need the presidential palace to pay money, just need the U.S. government to come forward at the right time and provide nominal support for the Bahamian company.

Not far from Li Mu and William Evatt, Jeremy was looking forward to it, hoping to get the opportunity to make a statement in person, but William Evatt didn't seem to have the intention of summoning Jerémi, just glanced at Jeremi lightly, and then put his gaze back on Li Mu.

"The more relaxed you say, the more I feel that it is not so simple, and I want to smell a sense of conspiracy." William Evatt looked at Li Mu suspiciously, trying to find clues from Li Mu's expression.

"Don't think I'm so embarrassed, in fact, even without the support of the president, I can still do whatever I want in Haiti, and now it means that I take the initiative to give you and Mr. President, don't miss the opportunity." Li Mu is not angry, if he refuses to carry even a small pot, then Li Mu has no need to compromise, at most it takes a little more effort to hold Remy up.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, it's not like you, uh, he taught Jeremi, come here—" William Evatt immediately made a staircase for himself, and then called out to Jerémi, but not very friendly, like his pet dog.

Hearing William Evatt's call, and with the consent of William Evatt's secretary, Gerrémi hurriedly walked over and walked into the inner circle surrounded by bodyguards and assistants.

"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Secretary." Although he was fully mentally prepared, when standing in front of the US Secretary of State, Jerami still felt a dry mouth, after all, the US Secretary of State is basically one of the most powerful people in the family of the most powerful countries in the entire South America.

At least nominally.

"Don't stress Jeremi, tell me your story and see if we can do something for you." William Evatt entered the working state, although the bathrobe on his body looked a little untidy, revealing a large thick chest hair, and he looked very unserious, but his expression was as serious as if he was attending his grandfather's funeral.

"Yes, Mr. Secretary, my name is not nervous - no, I mean, I am not nervous at all, my name is Jerémi, from Jerémy – no, no, my grandfather used to live in Jerémi—" It seems that Jerémi is not ready, and this is really the beginning of disaster.
