Reborn As a Pirate

v2 Chapter 698: Gossip

January 27, 1788.

In a blink of an eye, the scarlet Christmas Eve has become the story of last month, and the "Freemason Perverted Murder" who once shocked New York did not commit a third murder.

The forgetfulness of New Yorkers emerged at the beginning of this year.

They quickly discarded the murderous maniacs, and led the city's topics to the economic field, and heatedly discussed the topic of the legendary First Bank of the United States and the upcoming national currency, the US dollar.

In the afternoon, one of the core figures of the topic, Alexander Hamilton, a political icon who has been outstanding in many fields in recent years, visited Mercury Manor and met Lorraine who had not appeared in social circles for a whole month at Villa One by the lake.

Lorraine is fishing...

Hamilton looked at his political close friends and old friends disgustingly, picked up a fishing rod from the wall, and squeezed it to his side.

"I am a wounded man quarreling with people in the Federal Hall every day, but you, the God of War, hide in the villa and fish... Kenway, won't your conscience hurt?"

"Probably not." Lorraine thought about it for a long time. "Playing with words is originally the job of you unscrupulous politicians. You are paid, and if I go to the Federal Hall to fight, others will only Doubt my motives."

Hamilton heard a black line on his forehead: "Well, tell me what you are thinking?"

"Wang Ye."

"Wang Ye? That cook who speaks French better than English, but actually comes from the Qing Dynasty?"

"Yesterday was the day of his wedding." Lorraine said lightly. "That marriage is very important to the Drake Chamber of Commerce. A strong Asian chapter may increase the assets of the Drake Chamber of Commerce by one thousand in three years. Ten thousand pounds, it has officially become the world's top chamber of commerce, instead of the [fastest-growing emerging chamber of commerce]."

"Equity ten million pounds..." Hamilton blinked his beautiful purple eyes, "what about you? When will you join the eight million pounds club?"

"Five years? Ten years?" Lorraine grinned. "The structure of the Drake Chamber of Commerce is more sound than any top chamber of commerce in the world. They can't stop me. When your revolving door turns completely, they will stop even more. Can't help me anymore."

"Revolving door..." Hamilton's eyebrows drooped, and he sighed heavily.

Lorraine turned his head and looked at him: "What's the matter? Another change?"

"Thomas Jefferson and James Madison." Hamilton put away his hook and changed his bait. "Jefferson has decided to be the first secretary of state of the federal government. Madison is also a core member of the Constitutional Convention. Mr. President respects them very much. In other words, at the critical moment when the first presidential election is about to begin, he must respect the opinions of those Southerners."

"Oh? Don't you want to elaborate?"

"If you really want to hear..."

After solving the Canaanite problem, the revolving door project did not go as smoothly as Lorraine and his allies expected. Instead, there was an unexpected major crisis due to the hype of the caring people.

Hamilton received a huge challenge. The people who challenged him were Lorraine's old friend Thomas Jefferson and another American political center James Madison.

Jefferson is Hamilton's old opponent. Both sides are spokespersons for the capital power of both the North and the South. Basically, Hamilton agrees with him, and he has good reasons to oppose it because of reason.

On the issue of the First Bank, Jefferson slammed the private system of the central bank.

He believes that [a private central bank issues the people’s public currency, which poses a more serious threat to the people’s freedom than the enemy’s army. We cannot tolerate rulers imposing permanent debts on the people].

Hamilton sneered at his argument, thinking that [this society cannot succeed unless the interests and wealth and credit of the wealthy individuals in the society are concentrated. The country’s debt, if it is not too much, should be our country’s well-being].

Based on their respective arguments, the two sides have launched at least three fierce debates in the Confederate parliament, each has gained a group of supporters, and the public opinion is equally divided.

In order to better compete for support with Hamilton, Jefferson, who is still the governor of Virginia, even put aside the affairs of the state capital and moved to New York temporarily.

And because Lorraine took a clear stand on Hamilton's side in this incident, Jefferson has been in New York for more than half a month, and he has not expressed his desire to meet Lorraine.

But in Hamilton's eyes, Jefferson was just a [difficult little trouble] this time. The real threat to the revolving door plan was not him, but James Madison, who was proficient in the law.

Madison is the core figure of the Constituent Assembly, the authority of the new U.S. Constitution that is being passed by the states in turn, the leader of democrats, and the powerhouse of the Southern political arena.

If Thomas Jefferson is the national father of democrats and John Adams, then James Madison is the next generation of political leaders chosen by Southern manor owners to contend with Hamilton in 20-30 years.

This shows that opposing Hamilton is Madison’s political correctness and a noble mission with priority over all else.

He tried his best to add obstacles to Hamilton, not only used his authority status, but also hired another constitutional expert, the Southern Chief Justice Aimond Randolph.

They proposed that all constitutional rights that have not been transferred to Congress must be ruled by the entire American people in accordance with democratic principles.

Therefore, the initiative of the Central Bank of Private Ownership of Hamilton is unconstitutional, not only unconstitutional, but also undermining the foundation of the United States of America’s nation-oriented nation-building.

This is an extremely serious accusation. If it is taken seriously, it may even destroy Hamilton's political reputation, forcing him to take the blame and resign and completely withdraw from American politics.

Lorraine did not expect that the political dispute over Bank One had risen to the point of personal attacks, and immediately asked: "Alexander, are you really unconstitutional?"

"The great constitution has not yet been officially promulgated!"

Hamilton narrowed his mouth stubbornly and stared at Lorraine, who also stared at him.

He surrendered after only a while, turning his eyes guiltily away.

"Only judging from the current constitution, Bank One is not unconstitutional," he said.

"The current constitution? Do you still have the previous constitution?"

"Not before. Madison has a strong voice on constitutional issues, and his team and supporters also have a judiciary like Aimond Randolph. I heard that they are promoting a constitutional amendment conference to prepare Start immediately after the federation is established. Sadly, we can't stop it."

Lorraine opened his mouth weakly: "In other words, they are using the future constitution to accuse you now?"

"According to the plan, after the establishment of the Federation, US dollars will be issued first, and then the first bank will be formed with the Mint Committee as the framework, and the revolving door plan will be launched. That is to say, the establishment of the first bank must be established after the amendment is implemented. This is everyone's heart. Know something, so..."

Hamilton spread his hands and shrugged.

"Kenway, Madison's allegations are okay."

This set of political tricks to reverse the conditions from the results really opened up Lorraine’s eyes. If it weren’t for his stance that naturally fits with the northern business owners, that is, the federalists represented by Hamilton and Adams, he really wants to immediately go with that Madison. Mr. contact.

But now, James Madison is an undoubted enemy. Hamilton is very likely to violate the future U.S. Constitution, and the First Bank, which Lorraine has high hopes for, is very likely to die.

Lorraine was murderous: "You came to me because you want me to take action against that Mr. Madison?"

Hamilton was taken aback: "What do you think! Kenway, the political struggle between democracy and federalism is the norm in the United States. We are already preparing for a political party, and assassination is absolutely not desirable!"

"It's okay not to kill~lightnovelpub.net~ Lorraine's eyebrows are drooping. "Politicians are very fragile. It only takes three months for me to ruin Mr. Madison. "

"But you can't prevent the constitutional amendment." Hamilton retorted softly, "Destroy Madison, the Southerners will launch Liszt and Lewis... after all, I won't stand out. The United States does not need the next Washington. This is their point of view, and it is also Ours, even Mr. Washington’s views."

"Then I can't help you with this matter." Lorraine sighed and returned his attention to the fishing rod. "This is a counterattack before the Canaanite ceremony. You resolve."

"Do you think the people who spread the rumors in the dark are the remnants of the Canaanite ceremony?"

"Is not it?"

"Is it?"

"Is not it?"

"Is it all?"

"Ah, the fish has bitten..."
