If you want to integrate into American society, you must follow the rules of American society's game, which is irrefutable.

Of course, if the Steed Group is strong enough, the Steed Group can push the US government to formulate rules in its favor, which is also part of the rules of the game.

Junma Group's patents have just been applied for a few years, so it is still far from the expiry of patent protection. Therefore, Li Mu is not anxious on this issue, and it is not too late to consider this issue in a few years.

As far as the current situation is concerned, in the past few years, in Massachusetts, Hawaii, New York and other places, Li Mu will have considerable influence, even if only half of the senators in these three places are closely related to Li Mu, Li Mu also has Grasp and push Congress to formulate relevant laws.

I almost forgot that Li Mu owns large tracts of land in Illinois and Indiana. Now Li Mu has begun to resettle immigrants to Illinois and Indiana, using the land in these two states to develop into ranches, and the Horse Group now has its own car. The plant and agricultural machinery are definitely within the plan. In a few years, Li Mu will become the rancher in Illinois and Indiana. At that time, Li Mu will also have a huge influence in these two states.

As for the ranch in East Texas, even if this is not the case, Li Mu did not plan to develop East Texas, which is one of Li Mu ’s hole cards. It is Li Mu ’s method of weighing Rockefeller, and Texas is the base of Rockefeller. Standard Oil's headquarters is there. Li Mu does not want to reach out to Rockefeller's site, otherwise the friendship between Li Mu and Rockefeller will be affected.

Back in New York, Li Mu's got good news. Will is coming back.

George Dewey won a great victory in the battle with the Indians. As the main cavalry first division, he has outstanding merits. Well, the war, killing one thousand and causing 800 damage, the first cavalry division also suffered heavy casualties in the battle, although Not to the extent that it hurts, but in order to save the strength of this army's ace force, the War Department requested the first cavalry division to be repaired in situ, and Will took a break and prepared to return to New York for a pleasant holiday.

The Americans are very stigmatizing. They always work and work and live and live. The two do not conflict. Therefore, in the 21st century, Li Mu often saw in the news that natural disasters and man-made disasters occurred in some places in the United States, but News that the president is playing golf on the golf course.

Will is the same. Although the war with the Indians is not over, but he has been exhausted for months on the front line, and Will has been exhausted, so Will considers proper rest is necessary, so even George Dewey The commander is still strangling the Indians, the frontline is fighting fiercely, and Will is about to start his holiday.

Of course, this is good news for Li Mu, which means that Li Mu finally no longer has a headache for Gloria. Will, the genuine "father", returns home, and Li Mu, the part-time "guardian", finally completes the task.

Of course, considering that Will does not have a permanent home in New York, just like in Springfield, Li Mu plans to settle Will on Governor's Island. This is Li Mu ’s home, and also Will ’s home.

The night he returned to New York, Arthur called Li Mu and invited Li Mu to have dinner.

This is a private dinner. Li Mu did not have a big fanfare, so he chose the San Jose restaurant on Greenwich Street in Manhattan.

San Jose Restaurant is a restaurant operated by "Springfield Security Company". After Hongmen was reorganized into "Springfield Security Company", it has taken the first step of whitewashing, then some legitimate industries are needed to prove the legality of "Springfield Security Company" You can't just hit and kill, that is not in line with Li Mu's new image that Hongmen wants to establish.

"Springfield Security Company" now has more than 900 employees, more than half of whom are Chinese. The three-person board consists of Ford Benjamin, Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang, but the general manager is Ford Benjamin.

Although it was established less than half a year, "Springfield Security Co., Ltd." has developed rapidly. Currently, it has three hotels, a restaurant, and two freight companies in New York. Li Mu is also planning to build a hotel on the warehouse contributed by Situ Lei. It will be directly managed by "Springfield Security Company" as the designated service hotel for the beach club.

The reason why the restaurant is named "San Jose" is related to the Chinese experience in the United States. Before the establishment of San Francisco, San Jose was the first stop for Chinese to land in the United States, so the name "San Jose" came to the Chinese Saying has special significance.

Although opened in Manhattan, the "San Jose" restaurant is an authentic Chinese restaurant. The chef of the restaurant is a chef invited from the Qing Empire. The dishes are mainly traditional oriental dishes, and they are not for American tastes. Make improvements.

There are always some Chinese who think that if they want to open a restaurant abroad, it is necessary to improve the taste of the locals. In fact, this idea is not normal.

What is the taste of foreigners?

If foreigners like the sweet and sour taste, then there is no need to make the boiled meat pieces sour and sweet. Is it better to recommend them sweet and sour carp? Even if there are no carps in the United States, sour and sweet dishes are everywhere, sweet and sour pork ribs, fish-flavored shredded pork, sweet and sour tenderloin, etc. are all sour and sweet. Any one of them can conquer American taste buds.

Another reason why Li Mu insists on authenticity is that Li Mu does not want to conform to the preferences of white people and change the Chinese traditional habits. What is tradition? Persistence is called tradition, and it will never form a tradition.

Maybe some people seem to be on the line, but for Li Mu, Li Mu is trying to create a Chinese image that is different from the past. He will never go wrong, ignore the overall situation, and won't frown in order to gain the approval of others. Only in this way can we truly build the confidence of the Chinese people and establish their image.

Of course, Li Mu is not static. He also selectively absorbs the excellent experience of Western-style dining. The "San Jose" restaurant has traditional Chinese boxes and Western dining halls. The two do not conflict because Li Mu believes that the Western The traditional habit of decorating the table with flowers is conducive to the style of the "San Jose" restaurant, so Li Mu likes this very much.

Eating with Arthur of course takes place in the box, which has a traditional oriental name: Peony Pavilion.

The decoration in the room also tends to the Oriental style. On the wall is a banner of a famous hand-written book, which reads the famous sentence in "Peony Pavilion" by Tang Xianzu: How beautiful the scenery is, how to enjoy the house. There is also a picture that writes: I do n’t know where the emotions are, and one goes deep, the living can die, and the dead can live. To live without death and to die, and to die from death is not affection.

The font on the banner is a regular script, one stroke at a time, and it is upright, just like the Chinese image that Li Mu wants to build.

Perhaps because of Li Mu's sake, Arthur was very interested in traditional oriental culture. He sat down on the simple, spacious and comfortable chair, and Arthur raised a blue and white porcelain tea cup, watching the floating silver buds in the tea cup and sniffing. If there is a faint fragrance, even if he does not understand the mysterious charm of Eastern culture, Arthur can feel relaxed and happy.

"Peony Pavilion-is there an allusion to this name?" Arthur is also learning Chinese. The pronunciation of the three words "Peony Pavilion" is quite clear. Although it is unavoidable, it is a bit foreign, but it has reached a level that can be heard. Degree of understanding.

"The peony should be regarded as the national flower of the Qing empire. Although it was not officially confirmed by the Qing empire, this is actually the case. As for" Peony Pavilion ", this is the work of an excellent playwright three hundred years ago and is very popular among our Chinese. Li Mu briefly introduced, but did not introduce the general plot of "Peony Pavilion" in detail. If I talk about it carefully, I don't need to eat today's meal.

"Like" The Wedding of Figaro "?" Arthur defined the "Peony Pavilion" as he imagined.

"Almost." Li Mu smiled, indeed, both were excellent works.

"The Wedding of Figaro" is a comedy opera among Mozart's three most outstanding operas. It was completed in 1786 and is very popular with white Westerners. Some time ago, Arthur had just heard "The Wedding of Figaro at the Opera House". 》, So I was impressed.

Speaking of which, the entertainment life of the people of New York in this era is tedious enough. As the most popular entertainment project, there is only one opera house in New York, the Yuefu Opera House. This opera house has only a small number of boxes and is a tool for the rich to entertain. Ordinary middle-class families are denied entry.

The most famous opera house in the United States in the 21st century is the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. Construction of this opera house has not yet begun, and construction will not begin until 1880.

After a few chats, the waiter began to serve. The first dish was the traditional northern dish of the Qing dynasty-roast duck.

The restaurant's chef personally served Li Mu and Arthur. The chef had superb knives. The sliced ​​roast duck was as thin as cicada wings. The meat tasted tender, the taste was mellow, and the fat was not greasy. Arthur made a case.

In the 21st century, people often say that Americans do n’t eat ducks. One reason is that there are a lot of things, but it ’s just that the Americans are born with a passion for life.

Americans do n’t eat ducks because they ca n’t make them. Li Mu spent so long in the United States and found that Americans ’cooking skills are limited to pans. For Americans, it ’s no less difficult than Chinese Level 8. If you don't make it well, or if it doesn't taste good, you naturally eat less.

But eating less does not mean not eating. Americans are also humans. Even hungry people eat, not to mention ducks.

After drinking for a while, Arthur finally began to say: "In two years, Philadelphia will host the Independence Centennial Expo. Do you know this?"

"I know." Li Mu is also an industrialist, and of course he knows it.

"I want to bring this fair to Niuyuelai. What do you think?" Arthur asked Li Mu for advice.

how about it?

Of course, very good!
