Many times, fate is so tortuous and bizarre. If Andrew Johnson, whom we mentioned before, had it not been for Abraham Lincoln assassinated, Andrew Johnson would not have taken over as the president of the United States. Maybe the United States would not have bought Alaska, and perhaps the future world pattern would have been rewritten.

The same is true for Arthur. Arthur has always been considered the confidant of Ulysses Grant. In another time and space, after Hayes came to power, Arthur was removed from his post by Hayes, so Arthur later chose to cooperate with James Garfield to participate in the presidential election and replace Hayes in the Presidential Palace.

This time, due to the appearance of Li Mu, Arthur's political career was even smoother. Not only was he not removed from his post by Hayes, he served as mayor and governor of New York, and he rose all the way. In the Republican Party, Arthur even had a reputation that was not inferior to James Garfield, which is also an important reason for the cooperation between James Garfield and Arthur.

To be honest, Arthur, who has more resources than another time and space, has greater ambitions, Arthur can even choose to cooperate with James Garfield. With Li Mu's full help, Arthur's performance will not be lost to anyone.

Unfortunately, because of Li Mu, Arthur has saved a lot of money now. Even if he leaves American politics, Arthur can choose his life as he pleases. This has greatly lost Arthur's motivation. The presidency may be attractive to people like Hayes or James Garfield, but it is really not attractive to Arthur. Arthur witnessed with his own eyes how embarrassed Ulysses Grant was when he was collectively besieged by the government and the opposition in the presidential position. It can be said that if it weren't for this experience, Ulysses Grant would have received a better evaluation. It was a shame that a national hero was kicked out of the Presidential Palace as a zombie. Arthur didn't want to go through all that.

Although Ulysses Grant is now traveling around the world freely and freely, it is because of Li Mu's support that Ulysses Grant has the energy and financial resources to realize his dream. Without Li Mu's support, Ulysses Grant should be busy dealing with the common accusations of the whole society and the omnipresent financial review. Arthur did not know how Ulysses Grant escaped the scrutiny of those tax officials. Perhaps Ulysses Grant was really on the verge of bankruptcy as he said. Ulysses Grant could stand the scrutiny, but Arthur could not.

Perhaps the person in the world who least wants Li Mu to break down his relationship with James Garfield is Arthur. Although if Arthur is willing, he will not have to bear the obligation to take over as president, Arthur dares not stoke it. That will ruin Arthur's reputation, which is more difficult for Arthur than killing him.

Do you still remember the provisions of the US Constitution? If you were not born in the United States, you would not be the President of the United States. It is precisely because of this that Li Mu would not be regarded as a threat.

Arthur was not actually not. Arthur was born in Canada across the Vermont border and later moved to New York with his family. In order to become James Garfield's campaign mate, Arthur lied on this issue, insisting that he was born in the United States and was qualified to be James Garfield's campaign mate. According to the constitution, if James Garfield cannot perform his presidency, then Arthur will have to take over as president. If someone points this out at this time, Arthur's personal integrity will be questioned. You must know that a president can receive much more attention than a vice president, and the chances of lies being exposed are much greater.

"Chester, you are my friend, you know what I really care about. For me, the most important thing now is not the Junma Weapons Company, not the Junma Group, or even the Bank of America, but Junma Affiliated School and Springfield Institute of Technology. These two schools are not only important to me, but also to all Chinese in the United States, and even to the future of the United States. In short, Junma Affiliated School and Springfield Institute of Technology are my private industries, how do I want to run it

As for how to operate it, no one has the right to point fingers. To put it bluntly, at this stage, these two schools will train talents for America in batches in the way I set it. The current situation of these two schools has proved this. I will not allow anyone to change the operation of the Junma Affiliated School and Springfield Institute of Technology, even if that person is the President of the United States." Li Mu expressed his dissatisfaction with the president for the first time. Weirdly, Arthur did not seem to feel inappropriate.

This is the power of capital. Businessmen like Li Mu do not need to worry about anyone in the United States. In fact, it is not just Li Mu, Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, Henry DuPont. They all have this qualification. It’s just that only Li Mu would say it so blatantly, and others would be better covered up.

Of course, this is also because Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, Henry DuPont's personal interests are not threatened, otherwise those people would not be able to be together. For example, Standard Oil and the DuPont family were ordered to be split by the US Supreme Court for "monopoly management". Standard Oil and DuPont family responded in a very different way. On the surface, they both split into many small companies of different sizes, but in fact they changed the soup and did not change the medicine, and their business methods were no different from before.

What behavior is this?

This is a disobedience to the US Supreme Court, a blatant contempt for social public opinion supervision, but have Standard Oil and the DuPont family been punished for this?

Sorry, no, Standard Oil and the DuPont family have received policy and economic compensation due to their apparent "possession" and have received nothing more ridiculous than this.

"I know Reim, believe me, James said nothing, no one wants to touch your cheese. Junma Affiliated School and Springfield Institute of Technology are not only your pride, but also Massachusetts and New York State. Now it seems that Junma Affiliated School and Springfield Institute of Technology are relatively single students. I think this will definitely change in the future. We all know that you are not a selfish person." Arthur could only choose the best. At this time, any action that tried to calm Li Mu's anger was added to the fire. When Tweed threatened Li Mu, Arthur once advised Li Mu to put the overall situation first, but Tweed was ruined and the relationship network that had been running for ten years was destroyed.

"He didn't say anything, but it was more serious than saying it. Whether it was good or bad, it was a comment. As long as it was said, we could discuss it together, but if nothing was said, it would make me worry that the worst situation would happen. You know, I never sat there and waited for death." The last sentence was right. Li Mu had always been aggressive, like a hedgehog who broke into the center of the city.

In fact, Li Mu in the 21st century was also a cautious person. His ordinary work and ordinary life were living a nine-to-five life like thousands of other ordinary people.

Even if a person is an ordinary person, once such extraordinary things happen to travel through time, they will immediately become extraordinary. Even if Li Mu in the 21st century is ordinary, he can live a stable life without worrying about group violence like the "Chinese Exclusion Act". Li Mu in the 19th century cannot be ordinary. Not to mention the ordinary, right or wrong, the identity of "time traveler" is the identity of "time traveler". Choosing ordinary in the 19th century is equivalent to actively handing the butcher knife to others. Li Mu dare not do such a thing. Even in the 21st century, when encountering violence, Li Mu will choose to fight to the death.

"Believe me Reim, give me this question and I will definitely give you an answer." Arthur decided to turn around and talk to James Garfield. Not to mention that James Garfield has not won the election yet. At this time, having a bad relationship with Li Mu is equivalent to giving up the election. Even if James Garfield becomes the president of the United States, it is not wise to have bad relationships with capitalists like Li Mu.

Take a step back and say that James Garfield is a politician, but Li Mu is a politician's financial backer. How can there be a politician who acts arrogantly against the financial backer? And even if you don't get the money, it's really-

To be honest, Arthur really wanted to find someone to scold him. Arthur would rather believe that James Garfield was bewitched. After all, some people around James Garfield's attitude towards minorities is really unfair, especially the Chinese led by Li Mu. Although Li Mu has achieved such great achievements, some people are unwilling to face it.

It was already mid-September when Arthur returned to California to meet with James Garfield. After attending a party held by local Republicans in San Francisco for James Garfield and Arthur, Arthur and James Garfield stayed at the Clinton Castle Hotel in Oakland.

The Clinton Castle Hotel in Oakland is the sixth hotel opened by the Beach Club across the United States. The top five cities with the Clinton Castle Hotel are New York, Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, and Miami. These five cities are located on the East Coast. Oakland is the first city to build the Clinton Castle Hotel on the West Coast.

When the Beach Club manages the Clinton Castle Hotel, it still uses some chain hotel management methods, so Arthur and James Garfield feel very friendly to the Clinton Castle Hotel in Oakland. From the standard terms of hotel service staff to the way bath towels are placed in the bathroom, the Clinton Castle Hotel in Oakland is no different from the Clinton Castle Hotel in New York, which makes Arthur and James Garfield feel at home.

Of course, Arthur and James Garfield's focus is definitely not on the Clinton Castle Hotel. To Arthur and James Garfield's surprise, Oakland has a city center square that uses electric lights to provide lighting, just under the balcony of Arthur and James Garfield's living rooms, which surprised Arthur and James Garfield. You know, even San Francisco does not have such a luxurious city center square. It seems that in addition to New York, Oakland is only as rich as Oakland, which makes Arthur and James Garfield very interested in Oakland.

"Oakland is a new city built by Chinese people from scratch. It is different from other Chinese gathering points in China. Oakland was built by Chinese bricks and tiles. Over the years, the Pacific Company has sent ships of Chinese people. They cross the ocean and cross the Pacific Ocean. San Francisco is their first stop on the United States. Many Chinese stayed in Oakland to settle down. There is the largest industrial area on the entire West Coast. Junma Group chose to place most of the West Coast factories in Oakland, and there are also branches of Junma Affiliated Schools. All regulations are exactly the same as Junma Affiliated Schools in Massachusetts. Most students are Chinese, and they do not accept admission applications for white and black children at all." James Garfield's deputy director of the campaign office has obviously studied the city of Oakland. Even Li Mu can only introduce it in such detail.

It is obvious that some of the words of Aisai Hodge reminded James Garfield of something unpleasant, and James Garfield's face immediately looked ugly.

"There is nothing wrong with Chinese people. We raised $2.5 million tonight, and at least half of them were donated by Chinese people. We should pay more attention to the positive side of Chinese people. Also, will black children take the initiative to apply to the Junma Affiliated School? It seems that few black people are willing to send their children to school." Arthur casually, thinking in his heart that he wanted to find an opportunity to drive Asaiah Hodge away and have a good chat with James Garfield.

But this is not easy. Every night, James Garfield's campaign team will hold meetings together to review some issues in today's itinerary and set a specific schedule for the next stage of the event. Usually they will discuss it very late, and Arthur did not want too many people to know what he and James Garfield were talking about.

"Haha, Mr. Governor, your words are suspected of racial discrimination." Ayia Hodge joked casually. This hat was very tight, and Ayia Hodge seemed to have forgotten that his words just now were actually suspected of racial discrimination.

However, compared with Arthur, Aisai Hodge's performance is more obscure in terms of racial discrimination.
