At the end of May, Li Mu met with Sylvester López in Guantanamo. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Sylvester López is Benjamin's cheap old man, although he is not good-looking, five short in stature, but he has a beautiful face and a hot daughter, in Benjamin's words, like an angel given to him by God.

Sylvester López has a 150-acre farm in Sivo, about 15 kilometers from Santiago, where there are many farmers like Sylvester López.

"Mr. Ream, it's an honor to meet you, may God bless you with good health—" Sylvester López lowered his posture, and his attitude was respectful when he saw Li Mu, as if he was visiting the Pope, and his mentality felt like he was on a pilgrimage.

"Mr. Sylvester, thank you very much for coming, I hope you can feel the warmth of family here." Li Mu was also polite, holding Silvestre's hand like an old friend reunited after a long absence.

Silvestre's daughter is called Crawford, and in the fine tradition of Westerners, Crawford is not yet eighteen years old, but he is quite mature in all aspects, and he is a good match for Benjamin.

When he saw Crawford, Li Mu's mouth was like honey: "Welcome to your arrival, beautiful young lady, let me see which lucky one has a chance to stand by your side-oh-ohoh, it turns out to be Mr. Benjamin Harrison from North Bend, Ohio, I have to say, Miss López, your eyes are as impressive as your beauty." ”

Westerners express their feelings more directly, and it is not rude to praise people directly at the first time they see someone like Li Mu, but it will be very useful, which is a manifestation of straightforward personality.

"Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Ream, you are a noble gentleman, as rumored—" Crawford was clearly impressed by Li Mu, and his smile was very bright, a little like that of Gisele Bundchen.

"Hehe, Miss López, don't be too restrained, I know what I am rumored to be, they don't describe me as Ouranos, even if they show mercy." Li Mu used self-deprecation to relieve embarrassment.

Ouranos is the villain of Greek mythology, in Greek mythology, Ouranos is undoubtedly the most powerful, but things must be opposed, it is precisely because of Ouranos's cruelty and rebellion that in the end he can only be fixed at the highest place in the world forever, enduring the pain of loneliness.

It must be said that in this era when there are gentlemen and ladies everywhere in high-class social interactions, Li Mu's way of self-deprecation and self-deprecation is very refreshing, at least this makes Crawford feel very interesting, her eyes smile like a crescent moon, hold Benjamin by the hand, and then look at Li Mu's eyes are much more normal, no longer full of defense and vigilance.

Well, in the Republic of Cuba, there are indeed a lot of rumors about Li Mu, an American tycoon, after all, the "Cuban Republic" has publicly reported it.

"Come on, Mr. Sylvester, I've got some cigars from Havana, please authentic Cuban for me to taste them." Li Mu didn't forget to greet Sylvester, this is today's guest of honor.

Li Mu and Sylvester did not go to the living room, but called Benjamin and Nelson to go to the study together, as for Crawford, with Gloria and Sandy there, it would not make Crawford feel bored.

"Presumably Harrison has already told you, so please forgive me for being direct, Mr. López, are you ready?" Li Mu was not polite, and he got straight to the point as soon as he came up.

That's right, Li Mu and Benjamin have decided to prop up their own spokesperson to take control of the Republic of Cuba, and Sylvester López is the target candidate.

Although Benjamin felt indifferent to Li Mu's request, but when it came to the matter, Benjamin still did not ignore Li Mu's opinion, Sylvester López met all Li Mu's requirements, this is a pure Cuban, has a certain reputation in Cuba, but does not belong to either the conservative and liberal side, the key is that Sylvester López only has one daughter, Crawford, as long as Benjamin controls Crawford, then he can firmly control Sylvester López in his own hands.

"Yes, I'm ready, Mr. Ream, maybe you don't know it yet, just two days ago, the bunch of minions from the Ministry of Finance came to my farm and demanded that I buy two hundred piasts in treasury bonds, but they only want to pay five hundred riyals, these people are already crazy, let them continue to mess around, and all of us will give them a funeral." Sylvester López is in pain, and the mention of the Republic of Cuba is gritting his teeth.

Pieste and rial are both Spanish currency units, one piast is worth about eight riyals, and the people of the Republic of Cuba are indeed crazy, which is equivalent to asking Sylvester López to buy 1,600 riyals of national debt, but only intend to put in the account of 500.

This is clearly a clear robbery.

Sylvester López didn't notice that when Sylvester López complained about the atrocities of the Republic of Cuba, Benjamin behind Sylvester López was smiling weirdly.

Well, considering the relationship between Benjamin and Sylvester López, as well as the relationship between Benjamin and the Republic of Cuba, then Li Mu has reason to believe that the origin of this "Ministry of Finance" is probably a bit tricky.

Of course, Li Mu will not verify this kind of thing, Li Mu has always ignored the process and only asked about the result.

"In that case, Mr. Sylvester López, please be ready at any time, and in due time I hope that you will come forward to form a government to replace the present Republic of Cuba - is there a problem?" Li Mu made a formal request.

"Of course I'm fine, but there's one thing, I'll run a plantation, and if you give me a plantation, I know how to run it thriving, but forming a government, Mr. Ream, I don't have any experience with that, so—" Sylvester López was dry-mouthed, but not yet out of his mind.

Inexperienced?

It's right if you don't have experience, if you really have experience, Li Mu really wouldn't dare to leave this matter to you!

"You don't have to worry about this, I will let Mr. Nelson cooperate with you, Mr. Nelson has a wealth of experience in city management, and I am sure that the cooperation between you will definitely complement each other." Li Mu introduced Nelson to the game, ready to let Nelson and Lopez team up.

As a frustrated politician, Nelson restarted a new political career in Guantanamo Bay, which made Nelson ecstatic, Li Mu told Nelson that he needed more managers, Nelson did not disappoint Li Mu, frustrated politicians like Nelson, in the South of the United States is now really a big handful, under the instruction of Li Mu, Nelson formed a management team of nearly 40 people, which was originally prepared for Guantanamo City, but now it is cheaper than San Diego.

Well, in every way, the current Santiago has a better future than the city of Guantanamo,

"That's fine, I just want to get these guys punished." Sylvester López couldn't wait.

Li Mu did not ignore the excitement in Sylvester López's eyes, this is normal, in the face of the low-hanging fruit of the presidency, no one can be as calm as water, Sylvester López is certainly not stupid, he just has no chance, so he has to nest in the farm in Sivone.

As Benjamin said, the butt determines the head, and even a person with mediocre qualifications will inevitably breed ambition once he sits in the presidency.

After Benjamin's enlightenment, Li Mu is not worried about this, it is a good thing to be ambitious, the key is to know how many pounds and taels he has, as long as Sylvester López cooperates with Li Mu's request, Li Mu can tolerate Sylvester López to get the status and benefits he deserves.

"There's no hurry, we still need a chance." Li Mu doesn't want to be famous, although Li Mu's reputation is not very good now, but Li Mu thinks that he is an upright person, and he can't do such a thing as a usurpation, Li Mu doesn't want to carry this black pot.

In fact, Li Mu did not have to wait long, and in early June, the government of the Republic of Cuba did not send the salaries due to the soldiers to the Santiago military camp as agreed, and the soldiers immediately became agitated.

"Did you hear that? Starting this month, we're going to have our salaries cut in half—"

"I'm rubbing, what's the matter, we've only earned so much-"

"Did you hear that? The supplies of the logistics department can only last for a week, and after a week, we won't even have enough to eat—"

"How is that possible? Isn't Mr. Ream in charge of our logistics? ”

"Mr. Ream is not a saint either, the government of the republic does not give money, do you let Mr. Rem pay out of his own pocket?"

"Did you hear that? Marshal Rayleigh asked Marshal George to immediately attack Bayamo, but Marshal George refused, Marshal George wanted us to get more training, and Marshal Rayleigh meant that we should make up for as much as we died-"

"I'm F, how can they do this!"

For a whole night, the barracks were filled with a commotion of people, all kinds of rumors spread, all of which were unfavorable to the government of the Republic of Cuba, Li Mu and George Dewey, who were described as "conscientious capitalists" who resolutely fought against the feudal bureaucracy, and when the representatives of Rayleigh Toynbee came to see George Dewey, their quarrels could be heard almost from the school grounds.

When George Dewey woke up the next morning, he found about 200 soldiers and junior officers of the Republic of Cuba gathered in front of George Dewey's door, and they demanded that George Dewey lead them to overthrow the government of the Republic of Cuba and establish a new government of the Republic of Cuba that would serve the Cubans wholeheartedly.

George Dewey refused the soldiers' request on the grounds that he was an American, and the soldiers spontaneously rushed out of the barracks and marched into San Diego, where a coup d'état finally broke out.
