When Li Mengyang learned the farm owner's surname, he was really moved. Could it be the Kennedy family in later generations?

But I think it doesn't seem to be true, because the Kennedy family is in Boston and Massachusetts. Maryland is a bit far away. The Kennedy family is still the first generation, and it is so miserable.

Then why come here?

John Brown was waiting for his last wave of reinforcements, and in his mouth it would be a large number of people!

By the evening, five black people came, which was pretty good. This seemed to be a good start. These black people were quite interesting. There was no fun these days, so they brought musical instruments.

There are guitars, violins, drums, and the music starts, and a bonfire is raised. We have to be high before this riot, right?

"Hey! Mr. Eastwood, I want to say sorry to you about what happened before, and I hope you can understand my feelings. To abolish slavery, I am a person who can give up everything myself."

Accompanied by cheerful music and the unique dance skills of black people, the old guy John Brown found Li Mengyang, and he was apologizing, really apologizing.

"You're welcome." Li Mengyang naturally couldn't not be angry. After all, he was threatened. "I will devote everything to something and do whatever I can."

Li Mengyang is of course talking about his own nation's liberation cause. However, he saw something he needed to pay attention to from John Brown, which is John Brown's performance at this time.

Everything John Brown did for the abolitionist was indeed admirable, but this person would definitely not succeed, because what he did was actually based on his moral standards to demand others and completely impose his own tricks on others. The final result would definitely fail!

It’s like now that John Brown can devote all his family to abolition, but what else has to do?

But this old guy asked others to do the same?

Let’s talk about Ferrederick Douglas, who Li Mengyang knew, was also a person who devoted his life to the abolition movement, but how about him now? Wasn’t that just breaking away from you, John Brown?

Although he didn't know the details, Li Mengyang was almost certain that it must be John Brown's request that Frederick could not do it, and the final result would be to part ways.

He, John Brown, felt that he was right to do this. He could bring his sons and sons-in-law in, so you and others would have to do this.

I've done this, why don't you do it?

In fact, there are also such examples in our Chinese history, such as the famous Wang Mang. Before he usurped the throne, he had a very good reputation. He could share the land of his family to the poor, and could force his son to death because his son forced a slave to death. But why did Wang Mang end up so miserably? The country was so chaotic?

The same principle is that I can do this, why can’t you do this? Come on, donate your own fields like me and force your son to death!

If you don’t look the same as me, then you are wrong, wrong! wrong! wrong! wrong!

Since you are wrong, kill! Kill! Kill!

This is the sorrow of idealists. Maybe they are all smart people, maybe they are all heroes for a while, but if they really get the power, it is often a tragedy.

At this moment, Li Mengyang's consciousness has already drawn a clear line with the idealists!

"Mr. Eastwood, although you are a Chinese, I really want to hear your views on slavery in America, because I have seen the articles you wrote and it reads very well." John Brown is the truth. He has really read Clint Lee's articles, so he really wants to hear the great writer and legendary thief's view on slavery.

Li Mengyang did talk about slavery in his article, but he didn't say much, because this topic has little to do with the plan he is going to make. He still wants to capture the working class, but now, it seems that there is nothing wrong with talking about it.

"Mr. Brown, in my eyes, slavery is only about one thing."

"What?"

"money!"

This conversation was simple, but it attracted everyone's attention, because this statement was too simple, right?

money?

Even Eleanor found it incredible, because if it was really because of the simple money, why are you still so tense now?

You know, at this time, several southern states began to make independence, and everyone's words became more intense, and the struggle between the abolitionists and slave owners was getting worse and stronger, and the revenge was emerging one after another. So, is this because of money?

"I know what you think." Li Mengyang continued, "For example, Mr. Brown, you are a devout believer. God said that people are born equal, so this slavery is sinful, there is no doubt. But let me ask, are the American Sankts not believers of God? And do Yankees all agree with abolition? Many people just say it, but if they really want to act, they will disappear? Why is this happening?"

No one can answer it because Li Mengyang is right. America is a Puritan society. Puritans are the most pious believers who claim to be themselves. They should be unconditional envelopes to God. Then they must obey all God's words, but why do so many people violate it?

How can people become slaves?

"Actually, it's all because of money!" Li Mengyang said calmly: "In the United States, what are the number of slaves? 4 million, which is roughly this number. So, how much is a slave now? We calculate the average, it's $1,000, so how much is the total value of 4 million slaves? 4 billion US dollars! I would like to ask, if slavery is abolished, how can we compensate the losses of the slave owners in the south? Even if the price is not the price, just talk about the cost of redemption of freedom, that slave is $600, and then 4 million slaves is $2.4 billion. Can the US government, or the northerners, give the southerners $2.4 billion?"

"..." At this moment, everyone was stunned!

US$2.4 billion, the GDP of the United States is far from enough for a year, and the concept of GDP is not available now. Not to mention the US government, even if there is no country in the world, there is no country in the world that can produce this amount.

In fact, if you want to calculate this amount, even if Americans are not good at math, they will definitely be able to calculate it clearly. However, no one has ever said that, and there is no one!

The abolitionists always claimed to be moral guardians, while the southern slave owners used the American Constitution to make a statement. They had another reason, which was freedom.

I have slaves, this is my freedom!

Li Mengyang continued, "Because of this huge loss, the southern slave owners naturally do not want to abolish slavery. As for the people in the north, because everyone has a lot of money transactions, such as lending money to the Southern Heroes, and borrowing money requires a mortgage. So what is the Southern Heroes' mortgage? It's slaves. If slavery is abolished, then the mortgage of this property will be gone. What should the northerners do if they borrow money?"

This is not a story, but a lot of such incidents have happened, such as General Robert Lee, who opposed slavery, but why didn’t he immediately release the slaves he inherited from his father-in-law? It’s very simple. His father-in-law owes money, and he releases the slaves without paying back the money. Can the creditor agree? The creditor is the Yankee!

There are also many banks engaged in this business. In fact, the slave owners in the south hate banks in the north even more. These vampires forced them to reclaim more land, otherwise they would not be able to pay back their debts.

So, it seems like a complicated relationship, stripping everything away, and the rest is because of money!

What should I do if I can’t give this money? There is no way, so I had to fight in the end and speak with my fists!

"Mr. Eastwood! You are indeed a wise man who understands justice. Please rest assured that after this incident, I will definitely guarantee your safety and your girlfriend's safety!"

John Brown was already a little regretful at this time. He really shouldn't let such a person charge with him. If Eastwood could write some articles in the newspaper that favored the abolitionist, wouldn't it be much better than his actions?

Moreover, he was a veteran, and he could see early in the morning that there was something between Eleanor and Eastwood...

"Who is his girlfriend!" It was all very good to hear. Li Mengyang said something that Eleanor had never heard of, but the old guy John Brown actually said that, this, this...

"Haha..." John Brown laughed a few times and left, while the others also understood the situation at this time, and they were all leaving.

"Don't leave!"

Eleanor also wanted to slip away, but Li Mengyang stepped forward and grabbed her!

"Bastard! What are you going to do?" Eleanor's face turned red and his heart beats very fast.

Li Mengyang only said one sentence, "Eleanor, I'm not a wooden man."

At this moment, infinite joy surged into Eleanor's heart. She only felt that she was the happiest person in the world...

The bright moonlight shone on the Potomac River, and it looked like phosphorus. In the woods by the river, a pair of men and women snuggled up to each other, and a small guitar was moved by the man, and a melodious tone came out.

“Touch on-day ver~ile

i’m-cross private ng-tempered-in-style-some-day

oh, dream-maker-heart-breaker

-goin’ - lure r-way…”

Li Mengyang's voice is still mainly hoarse and lacks magnetic properties, but Eleanor is very touched by tears and is very touched.

“Isn’t it a little too sad?”

"No! I just love to listen!"
