552 Appointments

At the dinner, Li Mu still found an opportunity to communicate with Rockefeller in a timely manner.

"The Pennsylvania court... This is a tough nut to crack, there are always people who think they are upholding justice, but they don't know the times, and unfortunately, the justice of the Pennsylvania State Court is such a one. After listening to Li Mu's words, Rockefeller also said that he had a headache.

In fact, there are all kinds of situations, such as Amos, who had a bad relationship with Li Mu because of the Mobile Credit Company.

Speaking of which, in the matter of the Mobile Credit Company, Li Mu played a negative role, Li Mu has reason to believe that if he changes the time and place, Li Mu may become very good friends with Amos and do something together.

But Amos chose to stand on the opposite side of Li Mu in the matter of the Mobile Credit Company, and Li Mu was forced to tear his face with Amos, and Amos was disgraced because of this, which also started Li Mu's journey of blackening.

It should be said that there is no one right or wrong in this matter, it is just a normal human reaction.

If it is not involved in their own vital interests, everyone can become a keyboard warrior, and once it is related to their own vital interests, their positions and choices will also change.

This is similar to the Internet public opinion in the 21st century, Li Mu still remembers that before Li Mu crossed, there was a period of time, the Republic police were criticized for violent law enforcement, and the overwhelming abuse and accusations on the Internet led to the police being restrained in law enforcement, and then when the high-speed rail was blocked, many keyboard warriors began to blame the police for being too weak and unable to exercise law enforcement powers, which set off a new round of public opinion storm.

Maybe the same group of people blamed the police in the two rounds of public opinion storms, so it is easy to understand, they are not right about people at all, no matter what the police do when enforcing the law, they will always find the entry point of accusation, as for those netizens who listen to the wind and rain...

Well, they're all still kids...

From Li Mu's standpoint, Rockefeller's schadenfreude certainly can't dissatisfy you, so Li Mu's attitude is quite resolute: "Isn't Pennsylvania your old nest?" Don't you have the slightest influence? I don't deny that some judges are people of integrity, but integrity is definitely not an unseemly reason, and if you can't handle it, then I'll find someone to deal with it. ”

Li Mu does not hate upright people, and even most of the time, Li Mu believes that justice should be fair and should not be swayed by the thoughts of certain people.

But it also depends on whose point of view, the Pennsylvania judges certainly have a reason for the Philadelphia city government to have a so-called justice, if it is after the election, Li Mu will even choose to support the Philadelphia city government's approach.

But not now, everything Li Mu and even the Republican Party are doing now should be to serve the general election at the end of the year, during this time, all unstable factors must be eliminated in time, if some people are ignorant of current affairs, Li Mu does not mind turning them into a part of history.

It sounds a bit unscrupulous, but in the United States during this period, this is the only thing Li Mu can do.

This is the only way to do it.

"Don't get excited, don't get excited, leave this matter to me, and I will give you a satisfactory answer." Rockefeller didn't dare to let Li Mu deal with it.

If Li Mu is allowed to deal with this matter personally, then Rockefeller can now foresee that Li Mu will definitely kill without scruples at that time.

That would definitely cause accidental injury.

"Of course, that's your territory, and you should be responsible for this." Li Mu has indeed been red-eyed recently, as long as someone dares to jump out and make trouble for Li Mu, Li Mu will definitely use the simplest and rude means to make that person understand what it means to be "a person who is a current affairs and a handsome".

The welcome dinner for Ulysses Grant was held in the ballroom of the Castle Clinton Hotel, a huge ballroom that can accommodate up to 600 guests and is so large that there are as many as three live bands providing music, including President Sylvestre of Cuba and King Pedro II of Brazil.

Pedro II was the second emperor of the Brazilian Empire, and in 1840, at the age of 14, Pedro II came to power and announced the release of all the slaves he owned in the same year.

From the point of view of the Americans, what Pedro II did was very much in line with the values of the Americans, so Pedro II was treated as a guest of honor by the Americans.

Regrettably, slavery has not been completely abolished in Brazil, and although Pedro II has been working on it, it is clear that Pedro II does not have complete control over Brazilian politics.

While being enlightened, Pedro II was an outright warmonger, pursuing a resolute expansionist policy towards neighboring Paraguay.

It is also regrettable that Pedro II's military capabilities are still lacking, so Pedro II coveted Paraguay for 20 years, but still did not annex Paraguay, which led to boiling public resentment and political instability in the country.

This kind of person is exactly what Li Mu likes, arms dealers, and his favorite is a war maniac, if there is no war in the world, then Li Mu will starve to death.

Towards the end of the banquet, Li Mu finally found an opportunity to be alone with Pedro II.

When Li Mu briefly introduced himself, Pedro II immediately showed a strong interest in Li Mu.

"Reem, it's a pleasure to meet you, in your native language, I also admire the daimyo for a long time..."When Pedro II said "long admiration for the daimyo", Pedro II actually used Chinese, and it seems that Pedro II had done his homework before.

"Your Majesty, you are too polite, in fact, what I have done is not worth mentioning, and your experience is fascinating." Li Mu knows how to repay the peach, and he is obedient and sent it like a flowing water.

"I'm very interested in your Horse Weapons Factory, and I am amazed by the heavy and light machine guns you produce, as well as the seven-five-millimeter rapid-fire guns, so if you can, I hope we can find a chance to have a good chat in the next two days." Pedro II did ask for something.

War maniacs have this problem, their weapons are always insufficient, and the value of Li Mu's existence is precisely this, so Li Mu and Pedro II really have the feeling of seeing each other late.

"Of course, I would also like to have an in-depth conversation with you, and I would be honored if I could show my value and help you." Li Mu will definitely not miss such an opportunity.

"Haha, what are you talking about?" Ulysses Grant, who had toasted a circle, finally returned.

"We're talking about tomorrow's opening ceremony..."

"I don't think today's banquet wine is too rich, and I didn't have so many kinds of wine prepared at the beginning."

Li Mu and Pedro II gave two very different answers.

"Your Majesty, you have to understand this, after all, we have only one Mr. President." Li Mu answered quickly, and he was silent between his words, and he ran Ulysses Grant away.

This is also the proper meaning, no matter how awesome Pedro II is, he is also the king of Brazil, and he can't fight with the United States, Ulysses Grant is the president of the United States, this is his own person, he must be more attentive.

"It really saddens me, I feel like a relative from the countryside who has come to join me in the middle of nowhere." Pedro II couldn't help but laugh and laugh at himself.

There is nothing wrong with this, the emperor still has three poor relatives, and it is only an orphan like Li Mu who has never seen his parents since he was a child, so he will not feel this way.

Of course, as the king of a country, it takes courage to be able to make fun of himself without any scruples, so Li Mu felt very good about Pedro II in an instant.

"Come on, if you're a poor relative, then what am I? A clown who warms up before the play starts? "Ulysses Grant also has a sense of humor, of course, it depends on who he is right to, and if his identity does not match, he probably won't have the opportunity to appreciate Ulysses Grant's humor.

"Gentlemen, let's talk about tomorrow's opening ceremony..."Li Mu changed the topic in time.

"What is there to talk about, tomorrow I will ring the bell with His Majesty the King, I'm sorry Reem, I guess there won't be so many people standing on the rostrum." Ulysses Grant is very clear about tomorrow's itinerary and does not need Li Mu's special reminder.

"Ringing the bell" is part of tomorrow's opening ceremony, as it is a code name, and when Ulysses Grant and Pedro II ring the bell, the largest Curtis-style steam engine at the fair is set in, which will power the entire main exhibition hall.

Oh, and it's not just Ulysses Grant and Pedro II who ring the bell, but also Sylvestre, the president of the United Cuban States.

Sylvester was now in a corner of the banquet hall, having a good conversation with Benjamin Harrison.

Li Mu speculated maliciously, wondering if Sylvester and Benjamin Harrison were talking about Crawford.

Crawford is Sylvester's daughter and Benjamin Harrison's girlfriend, and Benjamin Harrison is already married, so the relationship between the two is indeed a bit complicated, and I don't know how Benjamin Harrison faced Sylvester, this psychological quality is indeed strong.

Li Mu didn't disturb the exchange of feelings between the two people, came to the door of the banquet hall, and raised his hand to call Yan Shun over.

"Tell Melwell to make a plan, I'm going to make a deal with the Brazilians, all the joints are going to be opened, and before Christmas this year, I'm going to have all the Brazilian army use the weapons produced by the Horse Arms Company." Li Mu's requirements are very high, and this can be regarded as an assessment of Melville Fowler.

Following the departure of Glover Cleveland from the ZF, Melville Fowler became the lead counsel of the ZAMA Group.

If you want to talk about Melville Fowler, this guy is also a famous figure in American history, just after Grover Cleveland became president, Melville Fowler became the ninth chief justice of the United States.

Of course, Melville Fowler is not well-known now, and it will not be until about ten years later that Melville Fowler will emerge.

Grover Cleveland is a Democrat, after the Civil War, Grover Cleveland is the first Democratic president, although Li Mu and Grover Cleveland are on good terms now, but no one can guarantee that after Grover Cleveland becomes the president of the United States, Grover Cleveland will not fulfill his promise and show grace to the Horse Group extrajudicially.

Li Mu is now tantamount to adding a double guarantee to the future Junma Group, even if Grover Cleveland is treacherous, focusing on the overall situation of the Democratic Party, and targeting Li Mu and the Junma Group everywhere, as long as the chief justice can stand with Li Mu at that time, Li Mu will have the confidence to face any difficulties.

"Yes, sir." Yan Shun immediately turned around and left after receiving the order.

Although Yan Shun was not qualified to enter the banquet hall to participate in the welcome dinner for Ulysses Grant, Yan Shun still stood at the door of the banquet hall and did not dare to be careless for a moment.

When Li Mu returned to the banquet hall, someone immediately came up again.

"Mr. Reem, it's a pleasure to meet you." It was a bearded white old man who spoke, and the beard on his face was very luxuriant, and if you ignore his skin color, he would be similar to Zhang Fei.

"I beg your pardon, are you?" Li Mu thought about it for a long time, but he didn't have the slightest impression on the person in front of him.

"Of course you don't know me, strictly speaking, this is the first meeting between us..."The white-bearded old man smiled wryly, and then introduced himself: "Allow me to introduce myself to you, I am Achill Theresa from Texas, and I was previously the executive president of the Cotton Farmers Association in Texas. ”

Texas Cotton Farmers Association... Li Mu immediately remembered this organization that had almost been forgotten by himself.

"So, what's the point?" Li Mu didn't have a good impression of Texans at all, so he immediately lowered his face, and his words were a little impatient.

"Now I am no longer the president of the Texas Cotton Farmers Association, although the current Cotton Farmers Association still exists, but in fact the Cotton Farmers Association is dead, speaking of which, it is thanks to you, if it were not for the great pressure you have put on us, then the Cotton Farmers Association still exists..."

"Please, you know, I'm busy, everyone in this banquet hall is busy, so I'm afraid I don't have time to catch up with someone here." Although the Texans have now relented, Li Mu still feels uncomfortable thinking of what the Texans did back then.

When it comes to Li Mu's social status, there is no need to hide his true emotions too much, liking is liking, hating is hating, others can not understand, but they must accept it.

"Yes, of course I know you're busy, so I'd love to get a chance to have a long conversation with you in the office, and trust me, it's going to be of good interest to you." Archiel Theresa hasn't figured out the situation yet.

The president of the Cotton Farmers Association, it seems that I should leave this kind of appointment to the secretary.
