Chapter 41 Ten Thousand Rubber Tree Seeds
Andrew Jackson listened to his subordinates' comments about the implementation of the Indian Removal Act, although in his eyes the Indians should not have legal status, and those weak, savage tribes should be crushed by the strong American army.
But the blood of the Indians inspired him, but it was a pity that he could not scalp those Indians with his own hands, which made his skills rusty.
Andrew Jackson thought of his ancestors, whether it was George Washington or Thomas Jefferson. These great presidents were free to kill Indians. How could it be that he had come to him? In Andrew Jackson's time, he still needed to find excuses to kill Indians. It's really Damn it.
But Andrew Jackson is the president after all. Using the Removal Act to reduce the number of Indians must be a mission given to him by God.
But when he mentioned the Indians, Andrew Jackson thought of the hypocritical and conceited banker.
"Damn it, Biddle idiot. If it weren't for the damn Relocation Act, the government wouldn't have so much debt. Damn it, Biddle idiot, he just paid off the debt he owed and he wants me to apologize to him! "
The costs of the Removal Act were huge, and many people within the U.S. government were dissatisfied with it, including Andrew Jackson and his kitchen cabinet.
"But now Biddle's reputation has reached its peak, and everyone calls him the God of Wealth. Based on current income, the U.S. government's income will hit a record high this year. And Mr. Biddle is indispensable. ” replied Martin Van Buren.
Even Andrew Jackson's most trusted kitchen cabinet members acquiesced to this fact, because the benefits from the land were too exaggerated.
"Fuck the God of Wealth, that fool actually built a temple for himself! Biddle and the Indians should disappear from this world. Martin, believe me, he will definitely destroy this country!" Andrew Jackson roared hysterically.
Martin Van Buren did not answer, for even he now believed Biddle's theory.
"As long as housing prices are high enough, if you sell New York, you can buy the whole of Europe! Even if I want to achieve Napoleon, I can't do anything!"
However, the Removal Act was a complete disaster for the Indians west of the Mississippi River.
The Indians called their migration path the "Trail of Tears."
Thousands of people from the Cheroke clan alone died on the Trail of Tears.
Of the 45,000 Indians who were forced to migrate, less than 20,000 successfully completed the migration.
However, what Andrew Jackson did not expect was that it was his forced eviction policy that allowed the land trade in the United States to continue to heat up.
At the same time, economic experts and speculators, including Friedrich List, also joined this massive army of real estate speculators.
The land in Chicago has increased 45 times, which means that the land Franz purchased for $200,000 is now worth $9 million.
Although the land prices in other parts of the United States are not as exaggerated as those in Chicago, the entire United States is in a state of extreme optimism. They believe that land prices across the country will be like Chicago's in the future.
The most important reason why Friedrich List joined the real estate speculators was that when he was working in the Austrian cabinet, he got the news that Baron Brooke had received funds possibly from the royal family to buy land in the United States.
Moreover, as the U.S. Consul General to the German Confederation, Friedrich List also knew the situation in the United States.
That is, the land craze had spread throughout the United States, and Friedrich List had no reason to let go of this opportunity. He spent all his savings and industries in the United States, and even took out a loan in Prussia.
Within Prussia, this consultant was highly regarded.
In particular, his method of preventing Austria's power from extending further into North Germany is simply an art.
However, some officials were very dissatisfied with Friedrich List's greed, because such a person had impure motives. He might help Prussia for money today, but he might betray him for money tomorrow.
But William III was unmoved. He felt that although this kind of person was only interested in profit, from another perspective, as long as there were enough benefits, this kind of person was the most loyal minister.
Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.
Franz is writing a letter in front of the desk. This letter is addressed to Archbishop Rauscher.
Although Rauscher believed that Franz was a born saint, he still only regarded Franz as a child.
So Franz could only play the trick of divine revelation. Franz said that he saw angels in his dream, and the angels led Franz to a stone tablet, but Franz just faithfully recorded what was written on the stone tablet. Text.
Franz had already completed three letters before, one to Brazil, one to Mexico, and one to India.
Of course, Franz didn't need to be pretentious when writing the previous three letters.
The missionary efficiency of the church in this era was too low, so Franz had no choice but to transform it and keep pace with the times. Although he still couldn't deceive himself by doing so, it was a dimensionality-reducing blow to ordinary people in this era.
Adventurer Costa finally met the mysterious sponsor, but what he didn't expect was that this generous sponsor turned out to be a woman.
And judging from her clothes and temperament, this lady must be very rich. If he could get along with such a rich woman, he would not have to go to the damn rainforest to look for the damn treasure for the rest of his life.
So he was very attentive to Talia along the way, but Talia, as an old girl of this era, was completely unmoved.
First of all, Talia herself had no interest in getting married. Secondly, she had been kicked out of the family, so there was no problem of passing on the family line. In addition, she owed the royal family an outrageous debt, although Franz and Mrs. Sophie might not let her repay it.
The most important thing was that the vulgar man in front of her was not to her taste at all.
Talia was born in an aristocratic family and then entered the palace. She had a terrible vision.
She liked a refined man, not a greasy uncle.
And Costa, an adventurer who had been living in the open air for many years, how could he be associated with the word refined.
Costa found that he could not attract the other party's attention, so he had to get the topic back on track.
"Madam, I got the treasure of the Golden City"
Costa was glared at by Talia before he finished speaking. He immediately realized that he was wrong. The lady in front of him was actually not married yet. He immediately smiled awkwardly and changed the subject.
"Miss, I have got the treasure map of the Golden City. There is a city made of gold by the Incas in the Golden City. As long as we can bring back a few gold bricks, you can get back your investment. But we will definitely return you a hundred times, no, a thousand times, and make you the richest person in the world"
The legend of the Amazon Golden City has been passed down for hundreds of years, and there are at least eight thousand people who have died for it.
But legends are just legends. Talia has no interest in it. She interrupted Costa who was talking big.
"I want 10,000 rubber tree seeds, and I will sponsor 100,000 florins for your expedition."
Costa was a little surprised, "Miss, what do you want rubber tree seeds for?"
"To enrich my garden."
Costa was a little speechless, "You are really a person with elegant taste."
