Chapter 41: Ten Thousand Seeds of the Rubber Tree

Andrew Jackson listened to his subordinates' reports on the implementation of the Indian Removal Act, although in his eyes the Indians should not have a legal place, and the weak, savage tribes should be crushed by the mighty American army.

But the blood of the Indians made him excited, but it was a pity that he could not peel off the scalps of the Indians with his own hands, which made his skills rusty.

Andrew Jackson remembered that his ancestors, whether it was George Washington or Thomas Jefferson, these great presidents were free to slaughter Indians, how did he get to him, Andrew Jackson's era still needs to find an excuse to kill Indians, damn it.

But Andrew Jackson is the president after all, and using the Relocation Act to reduce the number of Indians must be a mission given to him by God.

But at the mention of the Indians, Andrew Jackson remembered the hypocritical and conceited banker.

"Damn, Biddle idiot. If it weren't for the damn Relocation Act, the government wouldn't have so much debt. Damn, Biddle, this bastard, he just paid the debt he owed, and he actually asked me to apologize to him! ”

The cost of the Relocation Act was huge, and many in the U.S. government resented it, including Andrew Jackson and his kitchen cabinet.

But now Biddle's prestige has reached its peak, and everyone calls him the god of wealth. Based on current revenues, the U.S. government's revenues will hit a record high this year. And Mr. Biddle can be said to have contributed a lot. Martin Van Buren replied.

Even Andrew Jackson's most trusted kitchen cabinet members acquiesced to this fact, because the benefits of land were so exaggerated.

"Fuck the god of wealth, that idiot built himself a temple! Biddle should disappear from this world just like the Indians, and believe me, Martin, he will ruin this country! Andrew Jackson roared hysterically.

Martin Van Buren didn't answer, because now even he believed Biddle's theory.

"As long as the house price is high enough, if you sell New York, you can buy the whole of Europe! I can't even do it if I want to realize Napoleon! ”

....

However, the Relocation Act was a complete disaster for the Indians west of the Mississippi River.

The Indians referred to their migration route as the "Route of Blood and Tears".

Thousands of people died in the Trail of Tears alone.

Of the 45,000 Indians who were forced to relocate, fewer than 20,000 made it possible.

However, to Andrew Jackson's surprise, it was his forced eviction policy that allowed the land deal in the United States to continue to heat up.

At the same time, economic experts and speculators, including Friedrich Liszt, have joined this vast army of property speculators.

Land in Chicago has risen 45 times, meaning that the land that Franz bought for $200,000 is now worth $9 million.

While the rest of the U.S. isn't as dramatic as Chicago's, the U.S. as a whole is in a state of extreme optimism, believing that the nation's land prices will be the same as Chicago's.

Friedrich Liszt, the most important reason for joining the army of property speculation, was that when he was working in the Austrian cabinet, he received the news that Baron Brooke had received a possible amount of money from the royal family and went to the United States to buy land.

Moreover, Friedrich Liszt, as the consul general of the United States to the German Confederation, also knew the situation in the United States.

That is, the land fever had spread throughout the United States, and Friedrich Liszt naturally had no reason to let go of this opportunity, he pressed all his savings and property in the United States, and even took out a loan in Prussia.

Within Prussia, this adviser was rated very highly.

In particular, his methods of preventing the extension of Austrian power into North Germany were nothing short of artistic.

But some officials were very dissatisfied with Friedrich Liszt's greed, because such people had impure motives, and could help Prussia for money today, and betray for money tomorrow.

But William III was unmoved, he felt that although such people were mercenary, from another point of view, that is, as long as there were enough interests, such people were the most loyal courtiers.

Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Franz was writing a letter in front of the bookcase, this one addressed to Archbishop Rauscher.

Although Rauscher felt that Franz was a natural saint, he still only regarded Franz as a child.

Franz said that he had seen angels in his dream, and the angels led Franz to a stone tablet, and Franz only faithfully recorded the words on the tablet.

Franz had already completed three letters, one to Brazil, one to Mexico, and one to India.

Of course, in writing the first three letters, Franz did not need to play tricks.

The missionary efficiency of the church in this era was too low, and Franz had to transform it and then keep pace with the times, although he still couldn't deceive himself, but it was a dimensionality reduction blow to ordinary people in this era.

The adventurer Costa finally meets the mysterious patron, but what he doesn't expect is that the generous patron is actually a woman.

And judging from the clothes and temperament, this lady must be very rich, if she can be next to this kind of rich woman, she will not have to go to the damn rainforest for the rest of her life to find that damn treasure.

So he was very attentive to Talia along the way, and Talia was completely unmoved as an old girl of this era.

First, Talia herself has no interest in such a thing as marriage, secondly, she has been swept away by the family, there is no question of inheritance, and in addition, she owes a royal outrageous debt, although Franz and Madame Sophie may not let her pay it back...

The most important thing is that the vulgar man in front of him does not have an appetite for her at all.

Talia was born in a noble family since she was a child, and then entered the royal palace, and her vision was terrifying.

She likes a delicate man, not a greasy uncle.

And how could Costa, an adventurer who sleeps in the open all year round, be associated with the word refinement.

Costa found that he couldn't get the other person's attention, so he had to get the conversation back on track.

"This lady, I got the treasure of the Golden City..."

Before Costa finished speaking, he was glared back by Talia, who immediately understood that he was wrong, and the lady in front of him was actually not married, so he immediately smiled awkwardly and said.

"This young lady, I have obtained the treasure map of the Golden City, which contains cities minted in gold by the Incas, as long as we can bring back a few gold bricks, you can recoup your investment. But we will repay you a hundredfold, no, a thousandfold and make you the richest person in the world..."

The legend of the golden city of the Amazon has been passed down for hundreds of years, and there are not 10,000 but 8,000 people who have died for it.

But legends are just legends, and Talia has no interest in them, and she interrupts the bombastic Costa.

"I want 10,000 rubber tree seeds, for which I will sponsor 100,000 florins for your expedition."

Costa was a little surprised, "Miss, what do you want rubber tree seeds for?" ”

"Fill my garden."

Costa was a little speechless: "You're such a man of good taste. ”
