(Thank you for your support! Thank you for the black car!)

"Mr. Sward of New York, after weighing the pros and cons, he has agreed to support Mr. Lincoln..."

"What?"

David Davis's first sentence after he talked about the serious business was amazing enough. He was Lincoln, who had already received support from New York State. Sward had turned to Lincoln. So is this news true?

David Davis continued to laugh, "Of course, Mr. Chase is not an outsider. I can tell the truth about it, that is, Mr. Lincoln has promised Mr. Sward that once Mr. Lincoln wins the election and becomes president in the end, then Mr. Sward will become Secretary of State of the United States."

So that's the case!

Chase's heart was twisting in his mind at this time, and he naturally understood everything and what David Davis wanted to say, that is, he hoped that Chase, like Sward, would make deals with Lincoln's campaign team. As for what position he got, the position of Secretary of State is very powerful anyway.

And Chase is also sure that Davis did not deceive him, because Sward himself has his own problems. At today's conference, his view was simply a bloody spurt for being scolded, so...

Where is yourself?

Seeing that Chase didn't speak, Davis continued, "Now with the support of New York State, and Mr. Lincoln can definitely win Illinois, and the western states, it is natural for Mr. Lincoln to become president. So, for our Republican primary election, just support Mr. Lincoln. In addition, Mr. Chase, you will be the Secretary of the Treasury in the future."

"Secretary of Finance?!" Chase's eyes were almost glaring out!

Seeing this scene, Li Mengyang sighed in his heart, Chase is also a petty man, and he bought you with just the position of Minister of Finance? Is it the presidential or the minister of finance?

In fact, at this time, Li Mengyang was still not very clear about the political situation in the United States at this time, that is, the president actually has no great power, but some ministers under him all have real power.

In other words, Sward's choice is not stupid. Using a somewhat void position to exchange for a truly real position is definitely a business worth doing.

Secretary of the Treasury, how important is this position? Although the US economy is so bad now that it is impossible to see, the benefits the Secretary of the Treasury can get are definitely heart-warming!

In fact, there is another very tempting thing about Chase, that is, as a governor and a calculating guy, he is very clear about an economic problem in the United States at this time, that is, there is no national bank!

In the history of the United States, there were first and second banks, but these banks were all private banks. They were stipulated at the beginning of their establishment, with only a 20-year deadline, so banks would be revoked in 20 years. This was originally a design to control financial capital. However, now the United States does not have a national bank, so the financial sector is very, very chaotic.

How confusing is it?

More than 1,000 banks went bankrupt last year!

Of course this has something to do with the economic crisis, but the market is too chaotic, all of them are private banks, without any regulations, but this also means great opportunities.

Mr. Chase fell into deep thought. He was really tempted by this position. He had a bad foundation in electing president. Maybe he was killed in the primary election within the party. But now, as long as he supports Lincoln, there will be a real benefit, this...

"Mr. Chase, you can think about it. I have to go find Mr. Cameron. I believe he must want to become the Minister of War in the Lincoln government." Davis said with a smile, then gave a bow and left.

Li Mengyang saw this history happening in front of him, and he dared to conclude that the original history was like this, that is...

It turns out that the so-called democratic election is a fucking deal!

Li Mengyang is very sure that after dealing with Sward and Chase, Davis will definitely go to find the other two candidates, and they will definitely use the same method. Even if Li Mengyang is Davis, he can be said.

Sward agreed, and so did Chase.

Chase doesn't agree now, but he will definitely agree in the future. Even if he doesn't agree, it doesn't matter. If the other candidates support Lincoln, what does it matter if Chase doesn't agree?

At that time, you have to agree if you don’t agree, this...

It seems like a big fool in the Northeast!

Of course, Li Mengyang was not completely clear about the details, but he guessed that this internal primary election of the Republican Party that determined the fate of the United States gave him the feeling that it was a business.

Looking at Mr. Chase, the old salmon was already sweating profusely. Obviously, he was facing an important decision, whether to win the Minister of Finance steadily or take the risk of electing the president?

"Hey!" Fiona had actually given Li Mengyang several winks, but she was helpless. The guy didn't notice it, so she had to take a photo of him.

"What's the matter?" Li Mengyang had been looking at Mr. Chase just now, and he was also thinking about the presidential election.

"Oh, please help my father!" Fiona had no choice but to say this. In fact, she wanted to listen to her 'lover' idea at this time. Because it seems that Clint Lee has a lot of insights into politics, and it is available in the newspaper.

"I believe Mr. Chase will definitely make the most correct choice." Li Mengyang said with a smile, because he actually knew what Chase would make a choice early in the morning, because this old salmon is not a fool.

"I've decided!" Mr. Chase shouted, frightening his daughter and the 'future son-in-law', "I want to support Mr. Lincoln!"

As expected, Li Mengyang guessed it all...

The 1860 Republican Chicago Conference ended in a stable, united, peaceful and happy atmosphere. They chose their own presidential candidate, Mr. Lincoln, who belongs to everyone!

Then came the presidential election in 1860, which decided the final fate of the United States. This election can be said to be surging because all the forces and various tricks were all over the place, which was simply dazzling.

Compared with the Republican Party, the Democratic Party has split and they have created several candidates.

Douglas, the ‘little giant’, felt that Buchanan was so troubled that he wouldn’t choose, so it should be his turn that round, right?

Douglas has a high political reputation, but after the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Kansas is still bleeding, so his reputation is very bad.

The Democratic Party has created other candidates, so the little giant is eager to become president, and this guy runs his own election everywhere.

The presidential campaign is not the same as the state-level campaign, because after all, it is the president. If you are fine, you always come out to canvass votes for yourself. That is very annoying. Anyway, Americans are very annoying about this now. In addition, in Kansas and Douglas was often attacked by rotten eggs in his campaign speeches.

As for election day, it was even more shocking. Lincoln's name didn't appear on the votes in Southern State at all. Of course, even if it appeared, he would not win.

In this election, more than 4.7 million Americans voted, which was unprecedented. Li Mengyang's "New York Evening News" reported the whole process. You should know that the US population at this time was only more than 30 million, and there were 4 million slaves. Excluding women who had no voting rights, minors who were not up to the standard, and those who were old could not move, so the turnout rate was unparalleled!

In the end, Lincoln won by a very narrow advantage. On the day the result came out, Lincoln's wife Mary couldn't wait, so she went back to sleep. As a result, she woke up, and her husband told her that you are now the first lady of the United States of America!

Douglas really pursued Mary back then, and one of his bragging about it was, 'One day, you will become the President's wife!'

And Mary simply rejected Douglas because she hated such arrogant people, but now she has fulfilled her promise, ‘Become the President’s wife, but not your Douglas’ wife!’

These news were discovered in depth by Li Mengyang, and a large part of it was provided by big Bill. Then these gossips appeared on the New York Evening News, and the result... the circulation really soared!

In such an economic winter in 1860, the New York Evening News' circulation still maintained double-digit growth. On the one hand, it was because of Li Mengyang's publicity on **, and on the other hand, it was really tracking and reporting on the US election, and there were countless irresponsible gossip news.

Speaking of newspapers, several major newspapers in the south paid great attention to Lincoln's election, and the words were as cruel as they were!

"Lincoln's election is undoubtedly the greatest disaster that has come to this country. But now that the situation is complete, what the American people can do is to lower their sails, remove the main mast, and wait for the hurricane to arrive..." The Whig, the Whig, commented in this way, and they are still rational.

"Tea has been thrown into the river!" The Charleston Mirror in South Carolina was very direct. No one in the United States doesn't understand the "tea leaves thrown into the river" motto, because the anti-British army began with this action, and the so-called "tea party" was a revolution.

Is there a great revolution going on?

Before that, someone is leaving!

"We are going to leave the Federation!"

"What?"

The term of current President Buchanan has not ended yet, but he has encountered the most embarrassing thing that the US president can encounter, that is, some states want to leave the federal government, and this state is South Carolina!

"Can you be able to be graceful for a few days until March 4?"

"No! We are going to get out of here now!"

Buchanan's face collapsed at that time. He was definitely the most tragic president in American history. When his term was still several months left, the United States was split.

So can he agree?

"If you dare to agree, we will impeach you!" This is the opinion of the North.

Well, Comrade Buchanan has only a few months left in office, but he will be impeached by others and stepped down. This... is simply a tragedy!
