Tom looked out into the audience, focusing on the four European delegates who had not taken a stand.

The countries represented by these four deputies are the four countries that are now the heaviest in Europe.

The overlord of the sea, the world's first brother - Great Britain,

The overlord of the European continent and the second brother of the world - the Second French Empire,

The largest representative of the traditional aristocracy and the largest gathering place of the Conservative Party in Europe - Austria-Hungary,

The Kingdom of Prussia, the first country of the new militarized management system.

The diplomatic agreements that the four of them had given Tom before were also more generous and attractive to Tom than those of other countries.

Whether Tom can "get through" in this multi-party joint grain begging incident depends on the statements of the four countries.

Once these four nations join the forces of the joint bargaining for food, Tom will have to fight the whole world if he wants to keep the grain depot.

This kind of war against the unprofitable and defeated country is not what Tom wants to see at this stage.

In the same way, the four most powerful European powers did not want Texas and the Second Mexican Empire to be shattered by the rest of the world.

Unlike small countries that are relatively weak and difficult to cross the ocean to get their hands on Texas,

In the minds of the four of them, their homeland has the strength to directly touch the Texas regime.

Therefore, they want to invest in a strong heroine company, not a heroine company with missing arms and legs.

European countries are not monolithic in their view of Tom Smith.

The small countries just want to mix the soup and drink, the bigger powers will charge into battle to ask Tom for food, and the four most powerful powers, they will directly invest in the heroine company.

Tom looked at the four representatives of the great powers who were sitting as firmly as Tarzan, and understood what they wanted.

Fortune and misfortune are all in between, and if Tom wants to make a fortune from the Mexican Civil War, he will have to bear the pressure of being exposed to the eyes of the world.

Now that Tom is under pressure from all sides of the world, Tom needs to find a way to break the game.

Tom couldn't think of a solution for a while, so he decided to delay for a while and go back and think about what to do:

"Gentlemen, if you have a smuggling complaint, please contact the Texas government."

"How can I, Tom Smith, just an ordinary factory owner, be involved in smuggling such a lawless thing."

"I assure you that I will cooperate with you unconditionally as long as the verdict of the Texas state government reaches my office."

"Now, then, let's dismiss."

Ignoring the delegates and Yankee representatives who were still clamoring in the audience, Tom walked out of the conference room under the escort of the security guards.

And the dozens of representatives of various forces in the audience, after Tom left, did not leak expressions of regret or dissatisfaction, but their faces were full of satisfied expressions.

In their eyes, there is no other force in the world that can resist the joint condemnation of so many European countries.

Even if Tom temporarily refuses for now, he will eventually have to compromise with the rest of the world.

The representatives of the four powers, who did not express their position, were thinking about how to quickly invest in the heroine company, especially to find a way to infiltrate the management.

After Tom left the conference room, he went straight back to his office, took out a large blackboard, and wrote and drew on it to help him clear his mind.

Tom has to do everything he can to break down the alliance between these Europeans and the Yankees.

After Tom calmed down alone, he quickly figured out why the representatives of those four countries did not have the first team.

The plans of the four nations are great.

Can corporations be restructured into share-voting systems, and the Texas and Mexican second governments into non-dictatorships?

It's better to kill Tom, it's an act that completely destroys Tom's inheritance.

Tom needs to find a way for all parties to compromise.

Tom sat in his office chair, pulled out his golden fake cigarette, and took a few deep breaths of filtered air.

Thinking about it, Tom came up with a solution - ascend the throne!

"Wouldn't it be nice if I was crowned emperor of the United States directly?"

"After the establishment of the American Empire, marry the wife of a European nobleman."

"Will everything be solved soon?"

Tom is not a dreamer.

As long as Tom ascends the throne as emperor, and is the emperor who proclaims the United States, it is equivalent to taking an oath of independence from the United States of America in Texas.

This move would undoubtedly detonate the Second Civil War.

With the current state of affairs in the United States and continental Europe, the countries of Europe will definitely support the United States of America front.

Support the United States of America to divide the breadbasket of the American Empire after the United States conquers Tom's American Empire,

And supporting the American Empire has nothing to gain from it.

But Tom knew that the capital nouveau riche of the United States of America and the feudal capital aristocracy of Europe were inherently hostile.

You know, the United States of America is a country that has no aristocracy at all, compared to the United States of America, which does not recognize the aristocracy at all.

If Tom had married a European nobleman after the establishment of the American Empire, Tom would have avoided the war as long as the nobleman's bloodline was enough to be involved with enough European nobles.

The United States of America, as a new capital nouveau riche country in the colonies, has a big gap with the traditional feudal capital countries of Europe.

The American Empire, founded by Tom, after Tom married a European nobleman, was equivalent to recognizing the empire as a country that allowed nobles to legally enjoy privileges.

For the feudal capitalist states of Europe, the countries founded by Tom were inherently friendly and manipulable compared to the United States of America.

You know, as long as you are a European-type imperial state, and you are at the helm of your country, you can't always intermarry within the family, right?

Even the Habsburgs intermarried with other nobles,

Then Tom's ascension to the throne and the establishment of the American Empire is relative to giving all European countries a chance to marry and participate in the power of Texas.

As long as Tom gives these European feudal capital aristocrats some petty profits, they will definitely turn against them and help the American Empire unify the United States.

What if the nobles of their own family can marry into the American royal family in the future?

As long as you get married and get married, no matter what you say, in international diplomatic negotiations, it is tacitly accepted that the country after your marriage is a united front.

European countries know how terrifying and powerful a highly unified country is, and at the same time, they all yearn to participate in it, but these small countries do not have the same strength as Britain, France, Germany and Austria, so they choose to force the palace with the Yankeo.

Now that Tom has let go of a way to buy a stake in Texas by marriage, will they still join forces with the Yankees?
