030 Trembling

There are many cities in the United States called Springfield. The meaning of this word is "Springfield". Because the name is good, almost every state in the United States has one or two names to use this name. Among them, Springfield, the capital of Illinois, is the first to use this name.

Around 1794, the United States established the National Arsenal in Springfield, Massachusetts, and the rifles produced here became famous all over the world, so Mike's first choice to open a weapon factory was Springfield, Massachusetts.

Of course, in addition to the first choice, Mike also has an alternative option, that is Hartford, Connecticut.

Hartford is not far from Springfield, only less than forty kilometers. The reason why Hartford has become a backup option for Mike is that it is also one of the destinations for young children. After arriving in Springfield, all young children will be evenly distributed in Springfield and Hartford.

Another important reason why McCheng chose Hartford is that Colt is in Hartford.

That's right, it's the famous "Colt". The pistol that Li Mu bought from Mike was produced by Colt. All the other four pistols Li Mu bought in San Francisco were produced by Colt.

Colt is currently the largest private arms manufacturer in the United States. If Mike wants to make some achievements in the arms field, he will inevitably compete with Colt. Since he will face it sooner or later, Mike simply chooses to go directly to Colt's nest and fight with Colt in close combat.

Li Mu refused to argue with Mike's choice. Li Mu was unable to enter the commercial field now. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he could not, because Li Mu did not have enough resources and did not understand the business operation model and relevant legal provisions of the United States. Before he could figure out these issues, Li Mu would not enter the commercial field.

Just as Li Mu and Mike were having a good chat, the carriage gradually calmed down as the train started.

Compared with the trains in the 21st century, the current train carriage is a bit narrow. There is an aisle in the middle of the carriage. On both sides of the aisle are two rows of seats opposite each other, and there are no small tables in the middle of the seats.

Half of the Qing people were seated in this carriage. Except for Li Mu and Lao Yan's family, the rest were all servants of the little fat man. Foreigners were mixed with men and women. Most of the men wore barrel hats, suits and ties, while the women were roaming and competing for beauty.

For many ordinary Americans, this is the first time they have met the Qing people. Perhaps because this train was sent to New England, where the education level is relatively high, the people in the car are of high quality, and there is no point of pointing and ridicule. This naturally makes the Qing people much more relaxed and their moods gradually.

The train was still relatively fast, about 25 kilometers per hour. Four hours after departure from San Francisco, the train arrived in a small town called Stockton. As the train slowly stopped, the uniformed conductor announced loudly at the joint of the carriage: "Stop for five minutes."

Almost as soon as the car door opened, the Americans in the carriage where Li Mu was located jumped up like a rabbit hitting an arrow on his butt and rushed out of the carriage. The carriage was suddenly filled with noises, and the sound of children being squeezed to the ground and crying loudly, and the angrily cursed men and screams of women. The war was as messy as bandits.

The officials and children from the Department of Children Going Overseas Study were shocked. They really didn't understand why the gentle Americans just now seemed crazy when they stopped.

Soon, they understood the whole story.

There are no food trucks on the trains these days, so the passengers' food is provided by the stations along the way, and the meal time is just five minutes.

Because there are different people on each train, the stations along the way will definitely not prepare enough food, and there are no conditions to allow passengers to eat in an orderly manner, so this scenario occurs.

When the officials and the children from the Department of Children Go abroad came back to their posts, the parking time had already ended and the train began to start slowly. The fragrant meals were getting farther and farther away from the first time people took the train.

Li Mu was not in a hurry, and even Mike was not in a hurry. After the train slowly started, Miss Ten Thousand dollars only took out all kinds of food prepared in advance from the box she carried with her.

Mike has taken the train and reminded Li Mu last night, so Li Mu asked Lao Yan to prepare enough food last night for Li Mu and his friends to eat from San Francisco to Springfield.

The meal prepared by Miss Ten Thousand US dollars was still very rich. In addition to beef and bacon, there were also big cakes made from the kitchen of Kingsoft Hotel, as well as various after-meal fruits, and even a bottle of red wine to serve. Compared with the chaos just now, this is the demeanor of a gentleman—

The problem with the dining table is not difficult for Lao Yan. Lao Yan and Yan Hu made two small tables overnight last night, just in the middle of the two chairs.

It was pretty good to have a maid. After Miss Ten Thousand Mother took out all kinds of dishes, Miss Ten Thousand Mother began to prepare tableware, and various knife, fork, bowl, plate, red wine glasses were divided into pieces. Li Mu didn't even have to get up, and the cut beef was delivered to the plate in front of him.

Mike, who was sitting opposite Li Mu, also enjoyed the service of Miss 10,000 US dollars. He ate a bite of delicious beef and drank a sip of red wine with good temperatures. Mike was finally convinced: "It must be said that you are a person who is very good at enjoying life. I once thought it was a bit stupid to spend $10,000 to buy a servant, but now it seems pretty good. If you can always maintain the quality of this service, then it will be worth the money."

It's really hard to say whether it's worth it or not.

If we only consider the actual value, Chuxue's family is not worth 8,000 US dollars, but the value of a person cannot be measured by money, because Li Mu's joke that Chuxue faces the fate of being treated as a test subject, which really makes Li Mu unacceptable. If Li Mu sits aside, then Li Mu will never forgive himself in his life.

There are many people in this world who are in a miserable situation and need help. If Li Mu can't see it, it's fine, but if it happens in front of Li Mu, you still have to help. What's more, Chuxue was in danger because of Li Mu, and Li Mu couldn't sit idly by.

Although Li Mu has no worries in this world, Li Mu doesn't want to become a cold-blooded animal. One truth that Li Mu has always believed is "Money is a bastard, let's make money after spending it." If Li Mu really becomes a cold-blooded animal, then even if Li Mu earns all the money in the world, it will be meaningless to face a room of cold money every day.

Happy times are always short. After eating for a while, the fat man smelled the smell. He looked at the beef and red wine in front of Li Mu, and his whole body was trembling with irresistible trembling.
