On July 2, the Olympic Games were officially held. In the shooting competition on the first day, Yan Hu, a Chinese-American from the New York State team, won the gold medal for rapid fire in the 50-meter pistol. This is the first gold medal in the Olympics, and Yan Hu will also be famous in history. No matter when, as long as the Olympics are mentioned, Yan Hu's gold medal will be mentioned.
As a special award presenter, James Garfield presented Yan Hu with this gold medal. Originally, Hayes had to complete the work, but after yesterday's opening ceremony, Hayes probably didn't feel in the mood to stay and watch the game, so he returned to Washington early in the morning. As a result, James Garfield became the special award presenter for granted.
In the evening, on Governor Island, Li Mu prepared a family dinner to celebrate the gold medal that Yan Hu won.
"I still remember that we were practicing guns in Lakeside Town at that time. It seemed that we were using Spencer. I also had a Colt, which later changed to the current python - it felt like many years have passed, almost a lifetime." Yan Hu sighed when he first came to the United States. At that time, Li Mu had not founded a Junma Weapon Factory, and everything had to depend on himself, so Yan Hu and Yan Shun and Li Mu's shooting skills were good. Over the years, Li Mu and Yan Shun did not have much time to exercise due to work reasons, and Yan Hu had never let go.
"We have time to go hunting. We can still find prey around New York in the past few years. In a few years, if we want to hunt, we will go into the mountains." Li Mu missed that time very much, but he definitely didn't want to go back. Li Mu didn't want to feel the hesitation of being in danger again.
It is indeed hesitation. Although Li Mu confirmed that he would have an extraordinary life since the first day of this era, even Li Mu was hesitant and helpless when nothing had come true.
It is precisely because of this hesitation that Li Mu would seize it after discovering the opportunity. Even if Li Mu had already worked hard to achieve such a big family business, this habit has not changed. Perhaps in the eyes of many Americans, Li Mu's performance can be equated with greed. If it were a white man who owned Li Mu's current family business, he would probably have already traveled around the world like Ulysses Grant.
"No problem, I often went hunting with Cody when I was in Warren." Yan Hu was still very happy to be able to maintain the same hobbies as Li Mu.
Don't get me wrong. Cody is not a dumpling, but Yan Hu's father-in-law's name. Warren is a small town not far from New York. Cody is Warren's mayor. One day, Yan Hu went hunting and accidentally killed the cow from Cody's house. Then he met Cody's daughter. Now Cody's daughter is sitting in Li Mu's restaurant.
Cody's daughter, Yan Hu's fiancée, is called Helena. According to the aesthetics of Oriental people, Helena is not beautiful due to her figure. At that time, Yan Hu believed that Helena's agile body was conducive to better nurturing the next generation, so Helena became Yan Hu's fiancée.
It's not bad. Judging from the current mainstream aesthetics of the Qing Empire, Helena's body is indeed too "strong". Helena has a large skeleton, her skin is not delicate enough, and her personality is a bit careless. However, in Li Mu's opinion, this is not a disadvantage. If she doesn't have a look and does not have too high requirements, Helena is indeed a good marriage partner, especially for a soldier like Yan Hu.
This statement is not a slander of soldiers. Because of the fact that Yan Hu has been in the military, his body is really too strong. Even according to Li Mu's perspective, Yan Hu is at the level of participating in the 21st Century Bodybuilding Competition, so Yan Hu really needs a "strong" wife, otherwise-
"Sorry, Helena, I'm so busy, so if I can, I hope Cody can come to Governor Island as a guest." Li Mu sent an invitation to Helena in person. This is not a big deal. If Li Mu visited Cody, it might cause trouble to Cody's future life.
The interpersonal relationships in the United States are actually relatively thin, unlike the Chinese tradition. Most Americans do not have the awareness of "one person is in power and a chicken and dog ascend to heaven", so the marriage of Yan Hu and Helena will not cause any trouble to Cody, even if Li Mu attends Yan Hu and Helena's wedding in the future, but if Li Mu specially visits Cody, the situation will be different. With Li Mu's current identity, if others discover that Cody may have a certain weight in Li Mu's heart because of the marriage between Helena and Yan Hu. Even if it is just this possibility, then people who visit Cody will definitely be in constant force.
Don’t think that white people will not be able to establish a relationship. If you can establish even a little connection with Li Mu through Cody’s relationship, someone will be willing to live in Cody’s home.
"Of course, if I tell Cody this news, then Cody will be crazy happy." Helena expressed her gratitude for Li Mu's invitation. Among ordinary Americans, Li Mu has become a legend. There are not many people who are qualified to visit Governor's Island, let alone Li Mu personally invited him. To be honest, if Cody comes to Governor's Island, it means that Cody has entered the upper class of New York with one foot.
"Then I'm sure that's it. Maybe Tiger hasn't told you yet. In fact, the Governor's Island is also your home. One of the houses in the back is Tiger." Li Mu has always been generous to his own people, especially Chuxue's family, who are all Li Mu's family.
"Really?" Helena was a surprise. Governor Island is Li Mu's private territory. Helena knew very well what this meant.
"Maybe, I don't know very well. You know, I stay in the military camp all year round, and Jennifer is dealing with this matter." Yan Hu knew of course, but he couldn't explain in detail, so it was a good idea to push the problem to Chuxue.
Yan Hu's personality is not swaggering. Like most Chinese, Yan Hu is low-key, deep and introverted. Even if he wins the lottery, he will not promote it everywhere. He wishes everyone knows that Yan Hu's performance in the army is no different from other officers, especially in terms of consumption. Compared with most officers, Yan Hu's consumption can be described as frugal. You must know that officers of this era can bring servants to the military camp. The First Cavalry Division is better because Will has strict requirements, and there are many people in the navy who do this.
Perhaps before this, Helena didn't know how much Yan Hu's net worth was. Perhaps Yan Hu was embarrassed to say that now he was going to hold a wedding with Helena. It is necessary to let Helena know that she not only married an officer, but also a rich man.
"Yes, I have always been in charge of Tiger's property. I put most of it in San Diego Investment Company. Tiger has a private account at San Diego Investment Company." Chuxue did not disclose much information, but it was enough. Not everyone is qualified to have a private account at San Diego Investment Company. That means Yan Hu's account must have at least one million dollars of capital flows.
In fact, Yan Hu and his family are paid for Li Mu, which is a must. Even in the palace before, Yan Hu and his family also have paid for it. Of course, the palace is definitely not as generous as Li Mu.
When Li Mu first arrived in the United States, all the money he earned was controlled by Yan's mother. At that time, Yan's mother was Li Mu's housekeeper. After the establishment of the Junma Weapon Factory, Li Mu's business grew bigger and bigger, and his wealth became more and more abundant. The Yan family also began to receive salary from Li Mu. Now, the Yan family, like the middle-level managers of Junma Group, each person can get about US$500 a month, including Yan Shun.
Of course, although the salary is only 500, the benefits are much more. Yan Shun has not even brought cash worth more than US$20 for a long time. After following Li Mu, there is really no chance to spend money. Needless to say, even the clothing is responsible for Junma Clothing. Two sets a year every season are the latest styles of "men's clothing". Starting from the second half of the year, the brand should be replaced with "stars". As for consumer goods such as houses and cars, Yan Shun also has his own house on Governor Island. If a car is needed, as Li Mu's personal manager, Yan Shun has the power to mobilize the fleet at any time. Therefore, for Yan Shun, money is meaningless. If there is no accident, Yan Shun will be tied to Li Mu for the rest of his life. As long as Li Mu has it, it means Yan Shun also owns it.
As for Yan Hu, when the First Cavalry Division went to Montana, Yan Hu still made a small fortune. The money has now increased by more than a dozen times under the operation of Chuxue, and this is only a part. After Yan Hu got married, Li Mu would give Yan Hu a part of the shares, perhaps from Junma Weapons Company, perhaps from Junma Automobile Company, or from Junma Group. Anyway, no matter what, as long as Yan Hu got married, Yan Hu could gain financial freedom, which is the ideal for many people to fight for for the rest of their lives.
"God, you have never told me." Helena's face turned red, and her eyes looked at Yan Hu were a little complicated. She couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry. Perhaps it was more because of her lover's concealment. This was not unforgivable, but - if you want to accept it, it would probably take a process.
"Dear, you have never asked me. I thought you knew it. After all, you know that my brother and my sister both work in Junma Group and have a high position." Yan Hu was really wronged. Of course, there might be a little bit of bad taste, and this is definitely not honest.
It’s okay for Yan Shun to say that the relationship between Chuxue and Li Mu is not so easy to describe, but Yan Hu is right. Chuxue also has a position in Junma Group. Chuxue’s position is the financial director and life secretary of the president’s office of Junma Group, which is no less than Yan Shun’s full title.
By the way, Yan Shun's full title is the director of the Office of the President of Junma Group.
"Of course I know, I also hope you can find a good job for Brown and Luke." Helena couldn't accept too much information at once, and she was already a little incoherent.
Brown and Luke are Helena's younger brothers, only two of the three younger brothers, and one is even younger. They are not at the age of needing to work. So it seems that Helena is also "Vodemort". I guess Yan Hu's life will not be very easy in the future.
"No problem, where do you want Brown and Luke to work? The headquarters of Junma Group? Or the subsidiary of Junma Group? Or the New York City Government? As long as you want, it will be covered by me." Yan Hu can still take care of it. It is such a thing that Yan Hu can do, and he doesn't even have to go through Li Mu's relationship.
Just kidding, Yan Hu is now the youngest colonel of the First Army Cavalry Division. He will definitely become a general in the future. It is not a problem for Yan Hu at all. Even if he goes to the headquarters of Junma Group or a branch of Junma Group, Yan Hu can do it.
Of course, Yan Hu can send his brother-in-law to a subsidiary of Junma Group or a subsidiary of Junma Group, but the position cannot be guaranteed. What Yan Hu can guarantee is to help Brown and Luke knock on the door of Junma Group. As for how Brown and Luke will develop in the future, it depends on Brown and Luke's ability.
But this is not absolute. Even if Brown and Luke are not capable enough, there is no big problem. Junma Group has positions that are well-paid but do not require too much ability. They are generally prepared for related parties. Adding two or reducing two will not have any impact on Junma Group. If it is not possible, Springfield Company is still there. Even if Brown and Luke are not good, Springfield Company has enough room for Brown and Luke to play.
"Listen to my Tiger, if Teddy doesn't mind, you can ask Brown and Luke to study at Springfield Institute of Technology first. Maybe you don't need to take such a big deal, and they can find a job that suits them." Li Mu's solution is more reliable. Whether it's to Junma Group or the New York City government, the name of "relationship household" will definitely be unfavorable to Brown and Luke's career development. It's better to study at Springfield Institute of Technology first, which is more beneficial to Brown and Luke's future.
"Springfield Institute of Technology - is it the school in Newark?" Helena's eyes immediately lit up. It is impossible for New Yorkers to know that Springfield Institute of Technology. For students of the Junma Affiliated School, it is easy to go to Springfield Institute of Technology to further study, but for others, it is as difficult as heaven. Unlike other schools of this era, Springfield Institute of Technology does not organize entrance exams at all. Ordinary people who want to study in Springfield Institute of Technology cannot find a way to enter.
