DuPont's headquarters is not far from Fort Park, opposite the Treasury Branch on Wall Street. Where did Washington deliver an inaugural speech at that time?

In recent years, Junma Group and DuPont have maintained a good relationship. DuPont pays a certain amount of patent usage fee to Junma Weapons every year, and Junma Weapons orders all gunpowder needed to produce weapons from DuPont. Now DuPont has purchased more than ten kinds of patents from Junma Weapons, and smokeless gunpowder is just one of them.

Before coming, Li Mu had already called, and Henry DuPont arranged for his nephew Lamot to greet Li Mu downstairs.

Don't think that Henry DuPont ignores Li Mu. In fact, Lamour is no less important in the DuPont family than Henry DuPont. Although Henry DuPont is the president of DuPont, in fact, Henry DuPont does not understand gunpowder technology. Lamourt has loved chemistry since he was a child. He is the chief engineer of DuPont. After Li Mu founded Junma Laboratory, Henry DuPont also founded DuPont Laboratory, and Lamourt is the head of DuPont Laboratory.

"Antonio told me that your laboratory has created several kinds of strong explosives recently. It seems that Junma Laboratory needs to cooperate with DuPont Laboratory to a certain extent, which is beneficial to both of us." Li Mu's pitiful chemical knowledge has long forgotten all of it, so Li Mu can only find topics from management and Lamott.

In terms of overall strength, DuPont Laboratory and Junma Laboratory are definitely not comparable. Junma Laboratory is the largest scientific research institution in the United States. It now has more than 1,000 staff and is in the world's leading position in research in multiple fields. DuPont Laboratory has only made achievements in gunpowder research, which is thanks to the DuPont family's years of accumulation. After all, the DuPont family has been working on gunpowder for more than half a century, and it still has two brushes.

"That's my honor, sir, in fact, we only achieved a little bit of results. This is based on the patents of Junma Labs. I will contact Mr. Antonio when I look back." Lamott is very modest. This is true talented people. They are never proud. The further they go on the road of science, the more they feel their insignificance.

However, there seems to be a small problem here. DuPont Laboratory actually made a breakthrough by conducting research on the patents of Junma Laboratory. This should be considered a mistake by Junma Laboratory. A long time ago, Li Mu stipulated that the previous generation of patents will only be sold after the next generation results appear. It seems that Junma Laboratory does not strictly abide by this regulation.

Not necessarily. Gunpowder and engines and phones are different. Formulas and crafts can be improved, but improvements require a lot of basic experiments. If you have good luck, you will succeed in one experiment. If you are not lucky, it is normal for hundreds or thousands of experiments. Therefore, you cannot simply be considered to be in vain for Junma Laboratory, but Li Mu will definitely call Antonio Meuci.

"Ha, Antonio is in trouble this time, don't worry, I won't tell him that you told me." Li Mu laughed loudly, and Lamot immediately looked dark.

Of course this is a joke. Li Mu will not punish Antonio, but a beat is inevitable. Junma Laboratory has not taken out epoch-making inventions such as cars and planes for a long time. Li Mu also needs appropriate encouragement, otherwise someone will lie on the credit book and sleep.

The headquarters of DuPont is a six-story building. Henry DuPont also named the building DuPont Building. Perhaps twenty years ago, the six-story building could barely be called a building, but now it makes people laugh. Not to mention that they are all "four brothers of the Fort" with more than ten stories high. On Wall Street, six-story buildings are no longer considered high-rise.

There was no elevator when the DuPont Building was built, so the elevator was later installed. It was independent of the building. The elevator that Li Mu took was Henry DuPont's special elevator, which directly reached the top floor where Henry DuPont's office was located.

"You should change to a new headquarters. This building is no longer in line with DuPont. How about it? Should I squeeze out a piece of space for you in the Fort Park?" Li Mu revealed the shortcomings as soon as he entered the door. As for whether Henry DuPont was happy, it was not within Li Mu's consideration.

"No, I think this is good." Henry DuPont is not like some nouveau riche, who wishes to put all the money out for people to see. With DuPont's status, even if Henry DuPont has the company's headquarters in Brooklyn, there will still be a lot of people coming to him.

"What a wealthy miser. What's the use of making so much money?" Li Mu is the nouveau riche in Henry DuPont's eyes. This is a question of philosophy. Perhaps Henry DuPont thinks he is willing to be ordinary, but in Li Mu's eyes, he just pretends to be that. A dignified billionaire, the office is not even 20 square meters. When the guests come, there is no place to sit. Even if the boss in the 21st century has to squeeze out a tea table in the office.

"If you are here to find fault, then you can leave now." Henry DuPont was not polite either. The clay man is still very hot. He is familiar with it, and it is just as annoying as if it is too long to stretch his hands.

"Of course I have something to ask you for. I can't explain it clearly on the phone. I asked you to go to Clinton Castle and you won't go--" Li Mu could only sit opposite Henry DuPont's desk. I don't know if Henry DuPont was intentionally neglected. After so long, no one even gave me a cup of coffee.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Henry DuPont got up and poured coffee for Li Mu. It seemed that it was not intentional neglect, but intentional. Could it be that this way to bring the relationship closer?

Li Mu didn't think it was necessary.

"I just called Washington and there was something wrong with the supply contract with the War Department. The problem lies in gunpowder." Li Mu first raided an ambush to see what Henry DuPont said.

"Even if there is a problem with gunpowder, it is still a problem with Junma Weapon Company. The gunpowder I gave you is good." Sure enough, Henry DuPont immediately cleared it up. No one was willing to cause trouble. This is not Halloween candy.

"I didn't say it was your problem. The problem lies in the War Department. I'm looking for you for--" Li Mu said the purpose, and Henry DuPont immediately expressed his interest.

"It would be fine if I could pass, but it would be difficult. I have news. Louisiana is preparing to set up an arms company. Do you have any ideas?" Henry DuPont provided a new news, and Li Mu's face immediately looked ugly.

"When did it happen?" Li Mu really didn't know about this, otherwise Li Mu would start to make arrangements as soon as possible. Compared with this matter, any bullet expires and bans on trade are drizzling. The arms industry is the core industry of Junma Group, and Li Mu will never allow others to get involved.

Louisiana was the base camp of the Democratic Party. During the Civil War, Louisiana was a staunch supporter of the Alliance. After the war, the federal government implemented military control in some southern states. After Hayes came to power, he withdrew the federal army stationed in Louisiana. Louisiana was also the last state where the federal government came into contact with military control. This incident also became the fuse that led to the bad relationship between Hayes and the Republican Party.

By the way, Louisiana is also one of the few states left in the United States that have not placed orders with the Horse Weapons Company.

"Not yet, but I have heard the wind. A few southerners went to the California Gunpowder Company on the West Coast to buy gunpowder. They thought they wouldn't find it if they didn't buy it from me. It was so naive. The key is that they were not buying explosives, but buying radish medicine. If you go to New Orleans to check import and export orders now, you will probably find something." Henry DuPont must be directed towards Li Mu. Although from Henry DuPont's perspective, the more gunpowder is sold, the better, but if you want to maintain a good relationship with Li Mu, Henry DuPont will have to make a choice.

The gunpowder in the United States comes from the American Gunpowder Association, and the orders of the American Gunpowder Association are allocated by Henry DuPont, so any gunpowder transactions conducted in the United States cannot escape Henry DuPont's surveillance.

As for New Orleans, it is the capital of Louisiana, a port city. If Louisiana wants to set up an arms business, it will definitely order the machines needed to produce weapons from Europe, because they certainly won't choose to buy them from Springfield.

"Thank you, General, I owe you once." Li Mu was very grateful to Henry DuPont for providing the news. This is a big incident and Li Mu must immediately arrange a response.

"Hey, hey, what should we do with our Tariff and Trade Agreement?" Henry DuPont, no matter how urgent Li Mu was, the interests he had captured were the real interests. In any case, no matter whether it was Junma Weapons or Louisiana arms company, they had to order gunpowder from Henry DuPont.

"I asked Henry to contact you, damn it, I want to kill someone now, let the Tariffs and Trade Agreement go to the hell." Li Mu was no longer in the mood at this moment. Some people in Louisiana were looking for death, and Li Mu would let them get what they wanted.

Americans are really too lazy, a lot of Henry, a lot of Mikes, and a lot of Williams - if you don't add your surname, you won't know who you are talking about. Fortunately, Henry DuPont should know that the "Henry" mentioned by Li Mu refers to the vice president of the Junma Group, so let the two Henry go to lobby Washington together.

"Hahaha, I wish you a happy kill—" No matter whether Li Mu is happy or not, Henry DuPont is very happy at this moment. As for killing people, please, the capitalist is not full of blood these days. According to the convention of the 21st century, everyone of Li Mu and Henry DuPont should be sentenced to three to five thousand years.

This is not a mistake. Westerners are like this. Sometimes Western laws are similar to a joke. Although some countries have death penalty, they are not all. For example, many states in the United States have abolished the death penalty, so those who are extremely guilty have a particularly long sentence.

The longest sentence in the world is a Spanish man named Gabriel Grandos. This guy is a postman. According to Spanish law, if the postman loses a letter, he will be sentenced to nine years in prison. As a result, this careless guy lost more than 40,000 letters in more than a year. Therefore, the Spanish police requested the court to sentence the guy to 384,912 years in prison.

God, I really hope he can live until his sentence is released.

Back at the Governor's Island, Li Mu immediately sent a series of instructions, first of which was for San Diego, because after Li Mu studied the map, he found that New Orleans was located on the Caribbean coast, which was a good show. San Diego happened to be at the exit of the Caribbean Sea, guarding the main throat. If New Orleans ships were to travel to Europe, they had to pass San Diego.

If Santiago is only the first line of defense, then there will be the Bahamas after Santiago, and the Bahamas after the Bahamas will be the endless Atlantic Ocean. So as long as New Orleans buys related machines from Europe, you must pass through the Bahamas-San Diego line.

Li Mu's second call was called to Arthur. Louisiana was about to establish an arms enterprise. Arthur, as a government official, should have heard of it. Henry DuPont told Li Mu about this, not Arthur's first reminder, which made Li Mu very dissatisfied.

"Louisiana? Impossible-" After Li Mu finished speaking on the phone, Arthur subconsciously rejected it, and then fell into silence.

How could it be impossible? Louisiana just left military control and is still hating the federal government, so they have every reason to set up an arms company, not for the Mars Weapons Company, but for Louisiana's own needs.

Of course, perhaps it is not just Louisiana that needs this aspect. It can be said that as long as the Democrats account for the majority, they are probably not willing to do business with the Junma Weapons Company.

Who made Li Mu a supporter of the Republican Party?

"No matter what it is possible, even if there is such a sign, it's not possible. You know what it means to have a second arms company in the United States. I merged Springfield, forced Colt away, and destroyed Winchester. It's not to clear the market for someone. You just need to tell me who it is, and I will implement the others." Li Mu was so murderous. After merged Springfield Colt and Winchester, there were actually some small workshop-style weapons companies in the United States, but that posed no threat to the horse weapons company, and Li Mu did not eliminate the roots. If a large arms company appears now, it would definitely not work. Li Mu would also learn from Henry DuPont. Although Henry DuPont blows up a competitor's factory and left a lifelong infamy, Henry DuPont has unified American gunpowder companies since then, and no one dares to challenge Henry DuPont.

Take action when it's time to take action and let free trade go to the hell.

"Reim, don't be impulsive. Many people are staring at you now." Arthur already felt something was wrong. Although it might not be able to stop Li Mu, from the standpoint of a friend, he still has to say what he should say.

"I understand." Li Mu didn't say nonsense, just stare at him, so what can I do? I have the ability to blow up Junma Weapons Company.

Who is afraid of whom?
