Compared with the consuls general of Britain and France, the US consul general in Shanghai did not have so many ideas. Originally, the US interests in China were mainly concentrated in the north, and only a few foreign banks and financial institutions in Shanghai existed. Because of the economic and trade exchanges between the two countries, the Japanese still maintained basic respect for the United States. At least under the protection of the star-striped flag, there was no hindrance in the work and life of American businessmen in Shanghai.

Another more important point is that Mr. Monat Byrne Davis will return home next month. As for whether he will hold diplomatic positions in the future, it is still difficult to say. The United States will hold a general election at the end of this month. The current President Mr. Roosevelt, who was trapped in a serious scandal, announced his withdrawal from the election at the beginning of the month and no longer sought re-election.

According to Davis' friend in Washington, this is part of the deal. Roosevelt is willing to hand over power peacefully in exchange for Congress' agreement to give up impeachment of him and continue to retain his immunity. Because from the evidence currently available, the President has many suspicions of illegal and unconstitutional violations. Once Congress's impeachment is successful, it will not only be ruined, but also in prison.

Of course, this is just some rumors within Washington. Only the core personnel involved know that a small fish on the edge like Mr. Davis will probably never get to the answer in this life.

The Republican Party also made some changes. Because of suspected private collusion with Roosevelt, Wilkie was deprived of the candidate qualification and replaced with Thomas Dewey as the presidential candidate. In contrast, because Roosevelt withdrew, the Democratic Party could not even push out a candidate for a while, and no one was willing to participate in this doomed election, because the election situation was too special and it was likely to ruin the political future of the candidates. In the end, Garner, then vice president, came forward to be the cannon fodder. When the old man followed Roosevelt, he had already wanted to withdraw and simply took this opportunity to get rid of his family and return to the field.

No matter who comes to power, it has nothing to do with Mr. Davis, and he is not worried about his future. After all, he is an experienced professional diplomat. It is very likely that he will be dormant for a year and a half before continuing to work in another place.

Because the cabinet was rolling up its sleeves and busy with internal strife, Washington certainly would not give him any instructions, so he only asked the Consul General to perform his duties and express his sincere greetings to the German envoy on behalf of the United States. Anyway, the United States has no high voice in the public concession, so Davis is happy to be a bystander.

According to news from friends in Washington, the relationship between the United States and Germany is currently heating up rapidly. German Foreign Minister Mr. Niu Lait has been traveling around the states of the United States for several months. Almost every governor has met him. The German head of state has sent a fleet to the United States for a friendly visit. It is said that a high-level delegation was also here at the same time.

The European purchasing team led by the German Ministry of Commerce is conducting crazy shopping everywhere in the United States. Those Europeans want almost everything, and they are all rich and do not care about the prices proposed by the United States.

Under this situation, the US economy, which has always been dead, has shown signs of rapid recovery. The huge number of European orders has made American companies seem to have seen the prosperity ten years ago. Major factories have resumed production scale, and the unemployment rate has also begun to decline rapidly.

For the first time, farmers in the west and south all cleared their inventory and even got orders for next year. Tens of thousands of meat and livestock were transported to Europe every day, and all the cabins of corn, rice and flour were shipped out.

When American workers count their salaries, they will not forget who sent these jobs and orders. Out of curiosity, they urgently wanted to know everything about the head of state. The newspapers and media began to compete to publish the story of the head of state. There were even serialized comics of the head of state on the market. Every recorded movie with him appeared, every scene would be full.

The American people have become fascinated by this handsome European blonde who has created countless miracles, and the media have taken the opportunity to fuel the fire. A head-on craze has emerged in the east coast of the United States and is spreading towards the west coast at an astonishing speed. It is no exaggeration to say that the Americans' enthusiasm for the head of state has surpassed their concern for the presidential election.

Anyone with higher intelligence than a mule knows the principle that those who follow it will prosper and those who go against it will perish. Those who go against the social trends are not called having personality, but not knowing life or death. Of course, Davis would not do anything to harm the friendship between Germany and the United States at this time. Of course, due to his personal character, he could not deliberately flatter. This aspect is really impossible to compare with the French. Looking at Oqi's appearance, he would want to lick the palms of the Germans.

Davis turned around and looked at the Japanese who were still drawing circles. These unlucky guys didn't know what kind of punishment they would be punished after returning. There were so many Chinese and foreign journalists at the scene today, and even if they wanted to ban the ban, they couldn't do it. As long as the photos and videos were released, the face of the Japanese Empire would hit the ground.

Matsuoka didn't know this. If so many reporters were present, he would have slapped Horiuchi and Sawada, who were in charge of the reception matters. The honor of the Great Japanese Empire and his lifetime reputation were about to hit the hands of these two deer, so why wouldn't this external energy, who worked hard for the cause of the imperial country, be excited?

To be honest, Japan will agree to welcome the German mission on the Bund. There is no way to do so. The area north of the Suzhou River occupied by Japan is not only prosperous near the Bund, but other places are simply unstoppable for the Germans to show it. There are a large number of dense lanes and slums in western Shanghai. Jiangwan Zhabei still retains the broken buildings and ruins after the war. In addition to some natural villages that have cultivated farmland, Baoshan is left with large areas of wasteland and wild beaches.

It is not necessary to let the [Prince Eugen] stop at the Japanese Navy Pier, and then let the Germans visit the Hongkou Dojo. So when we really think about how to receive it, the Japanese began to worry.

The German side has long pointed out that we would visit the two major concessions. You may not stop the German marshal and tell him that there is nothing fun there.

Even if you want to stop you, you have to have a reason. If you change to a Japanese marshal, it will be much more convenient. As long as you have delicious food and drink, you will find a few geishas to solve any problem. But that is the German marshal, with a lot of senior officials around you, how many geishas have to be found to settle it.

Although the little Tokyo in Hongkou is quite prosperous and there are many European-style buildings, it is not on the same level as the public concession and the facilities in the French concession. After all, the Hongkou area was developed relatively late and is not as good as the old European concession.

Moreover, the Japanese residential areas are mixed, and there are many ronin hooligans who cannot survive in Japan. Even the military police have a headache. If a red deer who has been filled with sake accidentally causes trouble, just like in Paris, this time it cannot be compensated by cutting the small intestine to the Germans.

Just when the two were worried, the public concession suddenly sent a letter from the public concession, proposing that the delegation be allowed to land in the most prosperous areas of the Bund. At the same time, the concession would make the best arrangements to welcome the delegation. The Japanese side was worried that they could send someone to supervise the preparations or make their own suggestions. All the fees in the reception could be counted on the accounts of the two major concessions.

Horiuchi and Sawada began to make small plans, thinking that this was indeed the easiest and most convenient solution at present. They believed that the concession did not have the courage to play tricks in front of the Great Japanese Empire.

As a result, things eventually turned out like this. The British and French dug a hole, and the Japanese jumped in without knowing the depth. The Americans watched coldly, and in the end they had to rely on the Germans to save the scene.
