It was already early in the morning when he returned to the hotel. Benjamin brought two girls back. Although George Dewey was slutty, he showed good professional qualities at critical moments. He, Li Mu and Ma Han were both returned to the hotel alone.

"Get a good rest these two days, let's board the ship on April 1st." When Li Mu entered the door, he arranged time to give George Dewey and Ma Han a vacation.

When he returned to his room, Li Mu found Chuxue napping in front of the fireplace in the room, and the sobering soup prepared for Li Mu was simmering beside the fire. This scene made Li Mu feel very warm.

When he heard Li Mu come back, Chuxue jumped up quickly, took the hat and top from Li Mu, and behind Li Mu, smelled the collar while Li Mu was not paying attention, and then he was happy with satisfaction.

"You learned this with Mrs. Henry?" Li Mu shook his head.

Chuxue looked up with a red face, and then she found a mirror in front of Li Mu, and Li Mu could see his little movements clearly.

"No, no, I just smell it and see if I should wash it-" Chuxue's face turned red and she couldn't even tell a lie.

Li Mu's clothes were handled by Chuxue. Regardless of whether the clothes are dirty or not, changing them every day is a must. Chuxue can come up with this excuse, which is considered a wise man.

"Don't explain, explanation is equivalent to concealing it. Why are you doing so if you don't feel so panicked?" Li Mu did not save face for Chu Xue. This kind of unhealthy trend and evil spirits must not be encouraged.

Chuxue hummed and didn't say anything, tiptoed to sober up the soup to Li Mu.

Li Mu picked up the bowl and drank it all, wiped his mouth and went to the bathroom to wash. In fact, Li Mu didn't drink much, and he was not drunk at all. He just couldn't bear to see Chuxue sad, so Li Mu drank all the sober soup in one sip.

The most difficult thing to get the kindness of a beauty—

When Li Mu wrapped his bath towel and walked out of the bathroom, Chuxue had not left yet.

"Go to bed early, we will go to the Times headquarters tomorrow to check. You can check whether their accounts are in or out of the way. We can't let that guy Samuel blew our money." Li Mu said as he walked towards the bedroom. Yan Shun had moved over there to bed and was about to sleep in the living room at night.

This time I went to Cuba, Chuxue was Li Mu's personal steward. Chuxue was responsible for keeping the money that Li Mu brought. The cash alone was as much as 200,000 US dollars, and the bank checks were more, and the bearer checks were as much as one million US dollars. These were all kept for Cuba to buy the politicians of the Republic of Cuba.

In fact, Li Mu lives in a suite with three bedrooms in total. Li Mu and Yan Shun can have a room for each person. However, Yan Shun is used to sleeping at Li Mu's door at night, so she often sleeps on the sofa.

This habit is not very good. If Yan Shun sleeps at the door in a few years, something might happen if something happened.

At present, there is no problem. Li Mu and Chuxue are still young, and even if Li Mu wants to do bad things, he is powerless.

There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, Li Mu took Chuxue into the carriage and went to the headquarters of Time magazine under the protection of more than 20 gunmen.

Since the attack on Long Street, Li Mu is now similar to the Frightened Bird. He always moves around him with more than a dozen or twenty people, and they are all in the same outfit as Li Mu, and even the same horses he rides. This can avoid danger to the greatest extent, even in Springfield.

Samuel rented a house in a hotel on Lower Broadway Avenue in Manhattan. Next to the hotel is the famous "King's College" in New York. This "King's College" is the predecessor of the future "Columbia University".

Samuel rented the entire sixth floor of the hotel, which is also the top floor of the hotel. This is just a temporary location. In the future, Li Mu will find a suitable place on Manhattan Island, and then build one or several of his own skyscrapers, treating it as the center of Li Mu's financial empire.

Goodbye Li Mu, Samuel is still a little unnatural.

In this situation, no matter how stupid Samuel is, he can feel that he has fallen into a trap carefully set by Li Mu. However, Samuel already knows Li Mu's power. Even if he comes back now, he has no intention of doing the right thing with Li Mu.

"After arriving in New York, we first rented this place, with a total of twenty-one rooms, with a monthly rent of US$500. We are still in the stage of recruiting relevant staff. It is estimated that it will be published normally by May-" Li Mu sat in the main seat of the conference room and listened to Samuel's report.

There is a total of one editor-in-chief and two deputy editors-in-chiefs in Time magazine. The editor-in-chief is naturally Samuel. One of the two deputy editors-in-chiefs is Sammy Larkin and the other is Adam Jeremy. Adam is an editor-in-chief poached by Li Mu from the Boston Evening News and the former editor-in-chief of Time magazine.

Samuel does have a status in the American press. Adam did not have any intention of jealousy about Samuel's arrival, but he still did his own work steadily, which left a good impression on Li Mu. At the appropriate time, Li Mu would find an opportunity to promote Adam. It would be enough to have Samuel in Time magazine.

"Is there any open space on the Manhattan Peninsula?" Just outside the window where Li Mu sat, is the famous Wall Street-

Li Mu was not focused on these trivial matters. When he came to the headquarters of Time magazine, Li Mu suddenly realized that not only Time magazine needed a new office, but Junma Investment Company also needed it, Junma Weapon Company also had it. Compared with New York, Springfield was still too small. Li Mu's future work focus must be in New York, so Li Mu needed to find a suitable position and then build a kingdom belonging to Li Mu.

"Some, there is a lot of idle land on the Manhattan Peninsula, but the city government does not mean to sell it. The land here is very in short supply. Perhaps you can consider Brooklyn, opposite the Easter River. Although it is only separated by a river, the price is much cheaper. It is possible that you can buy a square kilometer of land in Brooklyn, and you can only buy one hectare on the Manhattan Peninsula." Samuel gave his own opinion.

"Brooklyn? No, for the sake of company image, we must not focus on Brooklyn." Li Mu refused without hesitation.

Although Brooklyn and New York are only separated by a river, New York and Brooklyn are two cities. Brooklyn will not become a district in New York until 1898. At that time, Brooklyn was a settlement for ethnic minorities such as blacks and was the area with the highest crime rate in the United States. Unless Li Mu was stunned, Li Mu would never choose Brooklyn.

"But here on the Manhattan Peninsula-" Samuel had doubts.

In fact, the hotel where Li Mu and his friends are located is very good. Next to this hotel is the famous Trinity Church in New York. Another point in the past is "King's College". Wall Street is a block across from it. If it weren't for Trinity Church between the hotel and Wall Street, this is the most suitable place to build skyscrapers.

"You don't have to worry about this. I will handle these matters. Your current task is to form a team, build the team as soon as possible, and then start working. I have been busy in the next few years. I need Time magazine to build momentum for the Republic of Cuba. You must be prepared." Li Mu decided to go to Arthur later. With Arthur as the customs tax officer, Tweed would probably sell Li Mu's face.

Even if Tweed doesn't sell his face, it doesn't matter. Even if Li Mu spends money, he will have to make a piece of open space on the Manhattan Peninsula and build his own business empire.

In New York, Arthur was indeed very good at hand. After hearing Li Mu's request, Arthur kept keeping his hands in his hands and didn't take it much: "No problem, how big is it, where is it?"

It is now dinner time. Li Mu came out of the headquarters of Time magazine and sent Chuxue back to the hotel before he had dinner with Arthur.

"The closer to Wall Street, the better. As for the area, it's better if there are four or fifty acres. If there aren't, it's also acceptable to have two or thirty acres." Li Mu said quickly, not paying attention to Arthur's increasingly ugly face.

After Li Mu finished speaking, the silver knife used in Arthur's hand finally fell into the plate with a "clang". Arthur was stunned for a moment, threw the fork into the plate, and then picked up the wine glass and said in disappointment: "If it was in the upper city and the middle city, it would be fine to squeeze out three or five acres of land, but in the lower city, I'm sorry, you should know that there is really no extra land now."

Manhattan is a narrow island, divided from north to south into Upper City, Midtown and Lower City. Wall Street is located in Manhattan's Lower City, and Upper City and Midtown District have not been fully developed yet. The open space Samuel refers to also Upper City and Midtown Districts.

"There are a lot of land in the lower city, such as Trinity Church. Don't you think it's a huge waste to keep a church in such a place where every inch of land is valuable?" Li Mu put his mind on Trinity Church.

"God, yesterday you said you were a loyal Catholic, but today you want to demolish the oldest church in New York-" Arthur refused and complained.

"Then it's King's College. I'll pay them to rebuild a school in the Upper Town, and then I'll build an Empire State Building at the current address of King's College. It will be a landmark building in New York." Li Mu was not discouraged, and he failed to achieve another plan.

"Please, can you not put your ideas on those public facilities? Reim, I can guarantee that if you remove those public facilities with a long history, you will be despised by New Yorkers, which is not conducive to the development of your company." Arthur said with great thoughts and hoped that Li Mu would change his mind.

King's College was founded in 1754, and has a history similar to Trinity Church. It is both the earliest landmark building in New York. Even if Arthur had the right to sell places such as Trinity Church and King's College to Li Mu.

"What should I do? This is not OK, and that is not OK. Do you ask me to build the company building into the sea?" Li Mu was not satisfied. Even if it was reclaiming the land, Li Mu would have to build a place in the city.

Reclaiming land?
