Chapter 15: I Don't Need Opponents

Turtledove has a very common trait, no matter how excited he is beforehand, when he really makes up his mind to do something, he can calm down, not hurry, and slowly clarify his thoughts to others.

In the eyes of others, there will be two turtledoves.

A turtledove is an authoritarian, ferocious and manic tyrant;

A turtledove is a good old man with gentle wind and drizzle, kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

But only those close to him know that a manic tyrant is not terrible, he is only using his emotions to influence the judgment of others, his heart is fragile, vacillating, and it is very likely that he will give up his position because of some inconspicuous factor.

But the good old man who seemed to be kind and kind-eyed made up his mind, no matter what others said or did, he would not change his course. Even if there was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of them, they could only rush over with all their might.

So, when the turtledove walked into the conference room with a smile, he greeted everyone cordially: "Are you all here? Oh, the weather is so bad, and you still want everyone to run like this, I really don't want to go!"

Everyone's hearts chuckled.

They know that today's meeting will be another one-man show of turtledoves.

You can object, but before you do so, it's best to think about the consequences of going against a young king who almost single-handedly saved the Indians from peril, who has 300,000 loyal warriors, who has never made a strategic mistake in the past 10 years, and who is now in the prime of life!

……

"Fifteen dollars, why don't you see you for three days, and you've gained weight?" Turtledove and fifteen dollars joked.

"Haha, there's no way, I just gave birth to a little cub at home, and my mother is getting milk and meat, and all the things I can't eat are fed to me!" Fifteen Dollar shook the turtledove's hand and said with a smile.

"I'll go see your little cub in a few days," Turtledove said, "I asked you to take the lead in responding to the national policy before, marrying more wives and having more children, and you were reluctant, this *** will be fun, right?"

"Haha!" Fifteen laughed and said, "Yes, yes, next month, my second wife is about to give birth!"

"Yes, yes!"

Turtledove walked to his seat, and before sitting down, he greeted another person, "Arvada, are you still used to eating food in White Rock City?"

Arvada Jankulovsky shook his head desperately and said, "It's so spicy! Look at my mouth, it's still swollen!"

"Haha!" Turtledove took a sip of the teacup and said, "You still have to get used to it slowly, all these years of bloody rain and bloody wind have come, and you are still afraid that you will not be able to eat chili peppers?"

"I'm afraid!" Arvada Jankulovsky replied decisively.

"Hahaha......", a total of 13 people in the audience burst out laughing.

The turtledove closes the lid and takes a seat.

All the laughter suddenly stopped, and for a moment, only the sound of everyone looking through the documents that had been prepared on the table was heard.

On everyone's desktop, there is a document that has not yet dried ink, only a few thin pages.

……

"I called everyone here because I wanted to build a railroad. But the ministers are against it!"

"The reasons for their opposition are varied, and they cannot be said to be unreasonable. I patiently explained to them again and again, but it still didn't make sense!"

"They're not stupid, I don't need to talk about the benefits of the railway, everyone knows it, so I won't say more about it here!"

"It's just that when there are many people, each has its own ideas!"

"Either you want to take this opportunity to bargain with me; Either push the hard things to others and keep the benefits for yourself; Or you want to get something for your mountain...... I understand!"

"It's just that if you continue to tear it off like this, when everyone reaches an agreement, everyone will call Lao Mei!"

"So, since I've convened this meeting, the issue now is not whether to fix or not, but how to fix it

Question."

"I won't allow you to object, if there are any opponents, please get out of here now!"

The turtledove's gaze swept over everyone.

"Is there any objection?"

……

There are no naysayers.

Turtledove was satisfied.

"The first page you see is the railroad plan of the Americans five years ago!"

"In the Americans' plan, there will be six railroad lines with four horizontal and two vertical, from north to south, the Great Northern Railroad, the Northern Pacific Railroad, the Union Railroad and the Pacific Railroad, and the South Pacific Railroad, but there are only two longitudinally, from Minnesota to El Paso, and from Seattle to Los Angeles!"

"Why do Americans plan this way?"

"As we all know, the economic development of the North and South countries on the North American continent is extremely unbalanced, and this is not what the Americans promote, saying that the north is an industrial area and the south is an agricultural area, and it has nothing to do with the difference in latitude, let alone the distribution of minerals and rivers - this is deliberately caused by the Americans!"

"Capitalism is a highly divided social system, which requires a clear supply of raw materials, a dumping place, a manufacturing area, and a financial area...... and so on, each has its own division of labor, and each has its own arrangement. This is the only way to maximize productivity!" Concentrate***

"In the top-level design of capital, the South is a low-cost labor area, the Great Lakes is a manufacturing center, New York is a financial district, and south of Richmond is an agricultural district...... Gentlemen, please be aware that the United States of America is a country dominated by capital, and the difference between the North and the South is a choice of capital and a deliberate design!"

"Once you understand this, you will understand why this railway network is so stupidly designed, as if it was deliberately trying to divide the north and the south into two parts!"

"And we can't do that!"

"We have our own railway design – let's turn the second page!"

There was a clatter of papers shaking in the conference room.

"In our plans, we have our own rail network, which is not only efficient, but also fair!"

"The north must develop, and the south cannot be ignored!"

"Only a well-developed railroad can connect our 14 states into one, and can all Indians move forward as one!"

"We cannot artificially divide our land into north and south, let alone east and west. The capitalist model of division of labor will inevitably lead to civil war, and the raw material marketing department cannot always be satisfied with being a raw material market, the factories in Detroit cannot be satisfied with making only a small profit, and Richmond cannot be satisfied with the financiers in New York taking away the profits that should belong to them with just their mouths......

"In 20 years at most, a civil war between the North and the South will inevitably break out in the United States!"

"Everyone's eyes should be widened and farther away!"

"Knowing this, everyone should know how our railroad should be repaired - everyone turn the next page!"
