Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner: Chapter 38 run for president 3

Adams was naturally very interested in Tangning's campaign slogan. After all, it would obviously benefit all members of his association, so he immediately asked, "I wonder what specific measures you have, Mr. Tangning?"

Tangning sorted out her thoughts, then said slowly, "I plan to build a military cemetery belonging to our state in New York, and propose to designate April 9 every year as Invalids Day, and there will be speeches, parades and other commemorative activities at that time. ; In addition, charity auctions and charity fundraising will be organized, and all the proceeds will be used to support disabled soldiers and families of fallen soldiers."

Actually, what Tangning said about the Invalids Day, even without his proposal, would have become a reality in the future, but it wasn't this time.

In reality, Veterans Day in the United States is called Veterans Day, to commemorate the First World War, and the date is also selected on November 11, the World War I Armistice Day. By 1968, the U.S. Congress passed the "Sunday Holiday Act," which moved Veterans Day to the fourth Monday in October each year, so that people could spend a three-day weekend. This legislation went into effect in 1971, and today, most states in the United States use this date to commemorate Veterans Day.

As for the military cemetery that Downing said would also be designated as the official national cemetery in 1864, it is located in Arlington County, Virginia. In fact, it was originally the manor of the legendary General Robert Lee. Military Cemetery.

Tangning's idea of ​​winning over veterans actually came from a real history of New York Governor Reuben Fenton. One of his two greatest achievements during his reign was to appease veterans. In addition, he is also a rare non-bipartisan background. The Governor of New York, his party is the Coalition Party, of course, he joined the Republican Party later...

After hearing Tangning's proposal, Adams immediately decided to support it. It wasn't that Adams was so easy to be persuaded, but at the moment, apart from Tangning, there was no other candidate to win over them, let alone put forward a proposal that would be beneficial to them. , so Adams arguably had no choice...

So he quickly replied, "Mr. Tangning, you have to admit that your proposals are really attractive to the members of our association. I think I can organize a speech to let them feel that you care about them. Of course, if It would be better to have some flyers or newspapers to promote it.”

"Don't worry, Mr. Adams, we are contacting the exclusive printing factory and newspaper office, so we will definitely be able to provide it in time during the speech!" Tangning hurriedly assured, but the money seemed to have to be paid by herself...

"That's good, then I'll try my best to organize all my comrades." He seemed to remember this, and said with a frown, "But Mr. Tangning, you have to be careful about your two competitors, their The strength is very strong." Then he added: "No matter which aspect."

Tangning laughed inwardly, this is really what decides the head. Adams just decided to support him, he started to worry about his election situation, so he smiled and replied, "Don't worry, I've already prepared for this."

"Alright then, I wish Mr. Tangning your success in the election!"

After returning from the Veterans Association, Tangning accidentally saw Rockefeller, "Huh? John, why are you here? I remember you are on vacation right now!"

I saw Rockefeller explained: "Boss, you are right, I am on vacation now, but I think I should take this opportunity to report to you in person. !"

For such a dedicated employee, Tangning naturally wanted to support her: "Well, okay, tell me, how is the business now?"

"Now the business of luxury cars is growing steadily. All the investment has been recovered two months ago, and it is in a stable profit stage." Rockefeller and Yourong narrated.

After talking about the good news, Rockefeller began to talk about the "bad news": "But the electric light business will not work, except that Mr. Jonathan has introduced many customers, and now there are very few new customers every month, on the contrary, There is a lot of maintenance work.”

Although Rockefeller seemed a little remorseful, Tangning was mentally prepared for this, because after all, there are a lot of rich people in New York. Now more than two-thirds of the rich have installed electric lights, so that's okay, think about it again To develop the business, you have to wait for JP Morgan to invest in the construction of the power plant, otherwise it will not be able to expand at all.

So Tangning comforted, "John, it's not your fault, it's a problem with the electric light industry itself. Unless you make a big investment, it's just like this for the time being!"

Rockefeller nodded in agreement and said, "Boss, you are right. In fact, many customers are very optimistic about the prospects of our electric light business~www.mtlnovel.com~ But they are all limited by the large investment, so no one dares to invest rashly!"

Tangning patted Rockefeller's shoulder and said, "It's good if you understand this. Since you're here in New Moon City, and you're still on vacation, you can have fun here. If there's anything you don't understand or need help with, feel free to come and look for it. I!"

"Okay, thank you boss!"

After Rockefeller left, Isabelle asked Tangning, "Master, can you take me and Caroline to see this year's gladiatorial competition?"

Tangning hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Yes, yes, but you can only pass by as slave girls..."

It wasn't that Tangning was deliberately insulting Isabelle, but if it was normal times, Caroline and the others wouldn't care if they dressed casually when they went out for shopping, but this kind of formal occasion couldn't be casual, otherwise they would be laughed at by other people of the same class. of.

Isabelle didn't care about this, she happily replied, "Boss I know, then I'll go tell Caroline!"

"I really don't understand, how can you women like to watch such **** things!" Tangning shook her head and sighed.

"Master, have you forgotten that women like strong men the most!" Isabel explained, but she seemed to think of something, and quickly added: "Master, don't get me wrong, Caroline and I didn't mean that, we It just feels like this kind of competition only happens once a year..."

This time it was Tangning who interrupted her and waved her hand, "I understand what you mean, go and tell Caroline!"
