Chapter 14 Looking at America
The establishment of the "Liberal Party" in 1840 officially set off the curtain of confrontation between the two different economic systems in the North and South of the United States to some extent. In 1854, two years ago, the establishment of the Republican Party with the purpose of opposing slavery was like a kindling thrown into a firewood pile, and a raging fire was ignited on the land of North America.
President Buchanan, a Democrat who took office this year, submitted the "Scott" proposal to the Supreme Court to promote slavery across the country on behalf of the entire slave owner class. The land of America is bred with storms of resistance and reform. At this moment, James Howlett is busy with the project of expanding the foundation and cellar of the manor while watching the turmoil in the neighboring United States.
"Considering that the current situation is unstable and there is no safe place to store a lot of the family's wealth, it is safe to expand the cellar into a huge basement, and I plan to build a few more tunnels to connect the manor with the horse farm, warehouses, etc. .Prepare two secret lines to prevent future incidents..."
"Don't tell me these things, what do you want to do, just do it! This family is now your master."
Mr. Howlett covered his legs with a wolf fur blanket, sitting on a rocking chair and basking in the sun on the balcony. His grandson beside him was peeling apples and reporting the recent family affairs. The old man squinted his eyes and wobbled to interrupt James' non-stop statement, the creases on his face were full of ease.
"Okay, then I will continue to arrange it like this. There are so many projects in the manor recently. Would you like to go to the cotton garden to the east to rest for a while, I am afraid that I will disturb my grandfather's rest." James squeezed the peeled apple and divided it into palms He picked eight petals and put them on the plate, and took one and put it to Mr. Howlett's mouth.
"No, no." Mr. Howlett chewed and said, "If I run around like this now, I might die outside. It's good to stay like this, watching the manor come and go every day from above. , can relieve boredom even if you are busy."
Mr. Howlett swallowed what was in his mouth little by little, looked at James and said: "Now, you don't need me to watch you when you do things. Daniel also said when he left, you are a very good person. An assertive child who has read a lot of books. I can only help you suppress those old guys, nothing else will help you."
Mr. Howlett smiled jokingly and said loudly: "It's time for you to find a woman. Our family has always been underpopulated, and it can't be like this anymore when it comes to you! What kind of family is an old man and a little guy! Don't worry about wives and lovers, just find a few more who can have children! I don't think your little maid has grown up, let her..."
Mr. Howlett’s old-fashioned words were interrupted by James with a wry smile. While promising his grandfather to think about it as soon as possible, he shirked that there was still something to do, and fled the room under Mr. Howlett’s scolding. His grandfather's words hit James' worries in the past year.
If he is not awakened, even if he is an ordinary person with a strange disease, it is normal to get married and have children. But knowing what kind of world he was in, and the "undead" who lived from the mid-19th century to the 21st century, James was full of entanglements about it.
The life of ordinary people will be far away from him, and he doesn't know how to face the birth, old age, sickness and death of his lover, how to face his own child who may one day look at his young father with gray hair.
Longevity is the pursuit of myths throughout the ages, and it is also a curse that entangles the poor...
Herbert Vernon received such a weird project for the first time. He was a Frenchman. His ancestors were senior officials in the French army when Britain and France competed for the ownership of this colony. After the defeat, the Vernon family did not return to France, but started a business on this land.
Because this family used to be mainly responsible for fortification construction and logistics maintenance in the army, Fei Nong's family continued to do their old job. Decades later, there is no greater builder in Canada than Herbert Vernon, and the business cultivation of several generations is much more nourishing than continuing to join the army.
"Mr. Howlett, are you sure you want to build according to this plan? Please rest assured in terms of technology and ability, there is absolutely no problem! It's just that it is unnecessary to build so deep, and the cost of time and engineering volume is too high." Fei Nong Mr. shook his triple chin and discussed with James with the drawings.
Now James has been called "Mr. Howlett" by outsiders. It's just that in private, people will use the little Howlett to distinguish it from the old Howlett.
"I'm sure, Mr. Fernon. Do everything according to this requirement, don't consider the cost, and do your best to complete it. And the most important point must not be forgotten, sturdy." James ordered firmly, and Mr. Fernon twisted After the buttocks packed with armchairs slowly left, James asked the butler to invite the person in charge of the equipment processing factory in.
Recently, James has been thinking for a long time, and gradually listed the plan and started to implement it. On the one hand, it is the construction of the family's manor. As his "old nest" and a place to practice for a long time in the future, James needs an extremely wide and deep underground secret space.
In order to be able to deal with the problems that may be encountered decades or even a hundred years later, James designed this place called the basement or cellar to be the scale of the underground palace. It can go from the foundation of the manor to the underground space, and the depth of the main space can reach 30 meters, which has reached the depth of the subway in the previous life.
And in order not to affect the addition and transformation of more functions in the future. In addition to being required to have an excessively strong structure, the entire underground project is designed to withstand an earthquake of magnitude 7, and is more designed as a foundation frame, which will not affect possible future renovations due to the established design.
If it weren’t for this era’s ignorance of what missiles and nuclear weapons are, James would have wanted to build this “underground palace” into a nuclear explosion-proof safe house.
On the other hand, his own boxing practice, too strong physical fitness and potential forced him to tailor a set of "torture tools" for himself.
Five giant hollow lead **** ranging from 500 kilograms to 3,000 kilograms, filled with different amounts of mercury. Armor-style heavy-duty armor, from the calf and thigh to the chest and back, and the arms. It not only ensures free movement, but also can be equipped with lead weights, and the maximum load can reach 300 kg.
A series of strength and fitness training equipment from the previous life, the weight is extremely amazing, the most special is a steel solid roller "column". The diameter reached two meters and the height was four meters. There were seven or eight iron rods as thick as calves and more than half a meter long scattered on it, with spikes extending out like maces. The entire giant iron pillar was also covered with circular protrusions the size of fists. The roller can be pushed and rotated by protruding iron rods, but to push this behemoth, it needs at least more than three tons of kinetic energy to do so.
At the same time, James has arranged for people to go to major cities in the northern United States to understand the current situation and collect information. In this era, a manor owner with a vast land is synonymous with power, and with the rapid development of industry, the creation and production of factories and large machinery, the electrical revolution, and even the Internet revolution.
Always sticking to the land and not seeking change, sooner or later it will become a crop that only works on farming. More importantly, the most acute issue in the future social contradictions of this world will be the opposition between James Howlett's race and all ordinary human beings.
He must be prepared.
As the American Civil War is approaching, it is inevitable to settle in this most troubled and powerful land in the future.
The owner of the equipment factory named Tom has been supplying steam trains and ocean-going ships with accessories and other castings. He had never seen such strange drawings and designs, and instinctively wanted to reject Mr. Howlett's business, but lured by the young man's nearly triple profit, he planned to go back and try.
Although I can't understand the use of these things that look like medieval armor or torture tools, they can't make money, and James also promised to bear all the costs of casting mold testing and manufacturing.
Although Mr. Howlett said that everything is up to James, if the old man sees his grandson doing these absurd things with the money he has accumulated, he will feel angry.
James settled everything at present, returned to his room, and fumbled out a black leather notebook from under the desk. Watching carefully, I stopped to think for a moment from time to time, adding something to it.
This is all the memories he recorded about the Marvel world from the day he realized what kind of world he was in. Most of them are fragmented words, time, and the passage of some events. For the sake of confidentiality, he wrote in Huaxia, which is rarely known in this era. Even if someone sees it, they will not recognize what language it is for at least a hundred years.
He drew two circles on a word, and said to himself: "What will happen in the future depends on whether we can find it..."
Finally got it done, but had no choice but to delete and modify a lot, everyone is worried, there is no way. The first chapter will be posted in advance at night, thank you for your support, everyone has seen it!
