In most people's understanding, "shameless" is a very despicable behavior, but sometimes "shameless" is a special skill. Some people can do things that most people cannot do, and they are particularly at ease. For them, their face is the same as the revolver in their hands, just a tool.

The problems that most real estate companies will encounter in the 21st century, and real estate companies will also encounter in the 19th century. Li Mu saw a very famous picture in his previous life, claiming to be a house that Trump could not buy, and it is considered to be a sacred and inviolable evidence of the sacred and inviolable private property in the United States. In fact, this kind of evidence is more in the Republic, but in the Republic, such houses are generally called nail households. Everyone will use nail households to mock the government's incompetence and the greed of the head of households, and will definitely not become evidence of the development of human rights.

The result of that story sounds very beautiful. Trump did not demolish it, and the homeowner still lives in his house. Later, after the homeowner passed away, he gave the house to Trump, and Trump did not demolish it, so that house became a model for the peaceful coexistence between rich and poor in the United States.

In fact, they are all fake. The original developer of that land was not Trump at all. The house was indeed not demolished, but it was not because the owner did not sell it, but because the developer who developed the land went bankrupt, the entire land was shelved. The house was eventually auctioned by the owner's daughter. After the initial $5 million to $1 million, no one was interested. Trump took over the land at that time, but Trump himself had no interest in that house. The final price of the house was $580,000, which was even lower than the price offered by the first developer to the owner in 19787. Therefore, the photos are just photos. No matter how good the story is, the fake ones are still fake.

Unlike Trump, Springfield Company basically does not encounter such a thing in New York. Of course, some people will be attached to the houses that Springfield Company likes and are unwilling to sell. However, Springfield Company has some ways to make them change their minds, and the prices are usually much lower than the market price. Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang's idea is to constantly buy land in Manhattan, then push all the original houses to build apartment buildings or office buildings on the old site for rent. This is a long-term good business. Maybe in a few decades, Chu Wushuang and Situ Lei can buy the entire Manhattan.

By then, if Li Mu is not required to support him, Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang will become members of the upper class in New York. After all, no matter who they are, if they control the pensions of hundreds of thousands or even millions of retirees, then it will be equivalent to protecting hundreds of thousands or even millions of families. This power cannot be ignored, because those who are able to buy pensions are basically middle-class, and these people are basically equivalent to votes. No one will be unable to compete with the votes, and then the Republican and Democrats will rush to establish a good relationship with Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang.

Li Mu always focuses on the big and let go of the small things. One thing determines the basic charter, and then Li Mu lets go and leaves it to others for implementation. Li Mu only needs to ensure that the development of the matter will not deviate from the direction designated by Li Mu. It is duty to do well, and it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t do well. If he changes his person, he will continue to do it.

It seems that Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang are doing well now, so Li Mu no longer cares about this matter. Li Mu's main energy is still to open up relationships. Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang do not have this ability yet.

"Social security, shouldn't the government be responsible for this kind of thing?" After listening to Li Mu's idea, Edward Geoffrey realized immediately that there were huge opportunities here.

"Sorry, if possible, I also hope that the government will be responsible for the protection of the tens of thousands of workers in Junma Group after retirement, but do you think this is possible? I will give you the money now. Can you guarantee that the money can be invested reasonably and then continue to increase value until decades later, and then gradually return it to those who need pensions?" Li Mu did not object to the government's responsibility for social security, but it is obvious that the government does not have this ability.

Decades later involve a policy continuity issue. If it is a one-party dictatorship country, then there will be basically no such problem. However, in a two-party or multi-party state, the government cannot guarantee the continuity of basic policies. Even a good thing cannot withstand the mutual destruction between multiple parties.

A very simple reason, for example, in New York, during the Republican administration, even if something seems good is done during the Republican administration, as long as the Democrats come to power, the Democrats may turn what was originally good into a bad thing because of some unspeakable reasons, and most of them will not catch the Republicans. Therefore, even if Edward Geoffrey wants the government to be responsible for social security, Li Mu will not give the money to Edward Geoffrey, because Li Mu cannot be sure whether Edward Geoffrey can do this well, or even if Edward Geoffrey can do it well, Edward Geoffrey's successor may use all the money in places that should not be used.

"Yes, you're right. This matter cannot be left to the government for responsibility." Edward Geoffrey was a little depressed, but was not disappointed. This matter was a trap. It would be fine if Li Mu didn't agree. If Li Mu really handed over the money to the government, then when people start to need money but can't get it in more than ten years or decades later, those angry people will tear Edward Geoffrey apart with his successor.

"If you get Edward, you can't give you money, but you can give you honor. What you have to do is to guarantee the company's reputation in the name of the government, so the benefits of this matter will all belong to you." Li Mu came to Edward Geoffrey to make a fortune. He would give it first if he wanted to get it first. If there was no benefit, Edward Geoffrey would not endorse the social brothers of Springfield Company.

"Are you serious?" Edward Geoffrey couldn't believe that Li Mu did this, which was equivalent to giving Edward Geoffrey a ladder. With this halo, Edward Geoffrey could even run for the president of the United States.

What is certain is that if this thing is done, it will definitely produce great political interests. You should know that the US governments at all levels have never considered the issue of social security. Even the phrase "social security" was said by Li Mu. Edward Geoffrey realized that these two words could be used in this way. So it is conceivable that if Li Mu really gave all his political interests to Edward Geoffrey, then how big a favor would be.

"Of course, we are friends. During the years you have been mayor, I have helped Springfield Polytechnic and Medical School a lot of help. I remember it in my heart, so there are benefits. Of course I will think of you, otherwise who else can I give it to? Chester? That's a waste." Li Mu didn't think of Arthur, but Arthur has become president and doesn't want to be re-elected, so Arthur has no desires and no matter how much halo is, it's useless.

As for other Republican politicians, please, if you have a good relationship with Li Mu, you are not in New York, and you have no future in New York. You are originally muddy, but even if you are mixed with reinforcement, you will not be able to stick to the wall. Edward Geoffrey is already considered good. Even if Edward Geoffrey does not run for president in the future and is elected as governor of New York, he can still help Li Mu.

Li Mu is sometimes shameless, so when talking about help, Li Mu is talking about Springfield Institute of Technology and Medical School, not Junma Group. If Edward Geoffrey really wants to swallow this pie, then Edward Geoffrey will repay her.

"Yes, we are friends, so Reim, I think the support from the New York City government to Springfield Institute of Technology and the School of Medicine is not enough. The School of Technology and the School of Medicine have become the most dazzling pearl in the crown of New York. We cannot remind people of money full of money when they think of Big Apple City. Such a big apple is a rotten apple and will not arouse any desires in people. So what do you think if you build a bridge and connect Manhattan and Newark, what's the idea?" Edward Geoffrey really understood the principle of repaying his favor. Of course, the money for building the bridge will not be allowed to be given to Li Mu, but the New York City government, which is part of the city's infrastructure. The project will definitely be left to Junma Construction Company for the project.

Oh no, it’s no longer Junma Construction Company, but New York Construction Company, and is no longer even part of Junma Group.

"This plan is good. Now we have to travel between Manhattan and Newark and rely on ferries. This does not conform to Newark's positioning. The Hudson River divides Manhattan and Newark into two different parts. This is abnormal. We need to change this reality." Li Mu of course agreed with this proposal, no matter how Li Mu pays it.

Edward Geoffrey doesn’t have to pay the money. The New York City government will pay, and everyone is happy to see it. Even the Democratic Party will not oppose such a proposal, because it will become Li Mu’s enemy, and Li Mu is now the target of the Democratic Party’s full efforts to win over. This is how public power is sold.

"I have to say that social security is definitely an innovation. Although the municipal government does not have the ability to provide social security for the entire society, I think it is necessary for the municipal government staff to join the social security. How should we join this social security?" Edward Geoffrey continued to give benefits, not even asking about the most basic amount of the security. It is estimated that the municipal government will pay the bill for this part.

This situation is not unique to the two-party state. Whether the New York City government is in power, it will try every means to provide welfare for public officials. This is part of winning people's hearts. Only by continuously expanding the vested interest group can the stability of the ruling foundation be ensured. It is best if everyone in the United States becomes vested interests during the Republican Party's rule, the Republican Party will be intact forever and there is no need to worry about the Democratic Party seizing power.

Well, the above is just an ideal situation. In fact, people's desires are always endless. After World War II, the United States became the most powerful country in the world. The United States can feed the wool from the world and provide nutrients to the United States. At this time, all Americans were vested interests, but the United States still took turns to rule because the benefits they received were never too much. When the promises could not be fulfilled, it was almost time to reshuffle them.

"Just give the money to Angus Job. The more you take out every month, the more pension you will be returned in the future. The biggest benefit of doing this is that you don't have to worry about your future life. You can enjoy your life now as the economy allows. Even if you don't live to the day you receive your pension, all the money will be returned to the heirs of the property in one go as the inheritance, which is good for us all." Li Mu doesn't know when the pension system in the United States began, but in another time and space, Germany's first country to implement the pension insurance system in the world was Germany. In 1889, German Prime Minister Bismarck established the world's first pension insurance system. Li Mu didn't know the specific details of the pension insurance system established by Bismarck, but Li Mu can be sure that the pension insurance system established by Bismarck is definitely not as perfect as the one designed by Li Mu.

In fact, it is all routines. Pension insurance is useless to the rich, to the poor, and even to the middle class with good financial management skills. As long as you have a little knowledge of financial management and use the money you are planning to buy pension insurance for financial management, the final reward will definitely be more than the insurance company gives.

Of course, if it is just a little bit, then investment needs to be more cautious. The capital market has always been a big fish to eat small fish. You must choose an industry that you can withstand risks. Investment is risky, and you must be cautious when entering the market.

"Very good, then that's the decision. I'll ask James and Angus Job to contact him." Edward Jeffrey didn't talk to Li Mu about the details. James is the director of the New York City Finance Bureau. As for Angus Job, it is the real estate company established by Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang. Li Mu didn't know why Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang chose this name. Anyway, as long as the controlling stake in this company belongs to Bank of America and San Diego Investment Company.

If currency depreciation is aside, then the pension insurance system is indeed an innovation. Of course, no one may decide the future, and maybe the currency will appreciate, which is even more cost-effective.

Of course, there is no need to worry about what has not happened. If the currency will definitely depreciate, it will also depreciate in the bank, and it will depreciate faster. If you are not worried about your life after losing your ability to work, then people can spend more income on consumption, and the whole society will benefit from it, and the government will benefit more, because even if pensions become heritage, the government can also collect inheritance tax reasonably and legally.
