Before going to Pittsburgh, Li Mu had to find a plot of land for his factory.

Land in the United States is still very cheap. With Will in hand, Li Mu paid no money and acquired ownership of a thousand acres in the upper reaches of the Connecticut River.

An acre is a unit of area in the United States. One acre is about 0.00404686 square kilometers, so a thousand acres is about a little more than four square kilometers.

Four square kilometers, it sounds like a lot, but not much at all.

Land was not scarce for the U.S. government at this time. Massachusetts, as part of the New England region, was considered an economically developed region. Even so, there is still a large amount of unclaimed wasteland in Massachusetts. The Massachusetts government has even issued a rule in recent years that as long as farmers reclaim wasteland, they own it.

When the United States was constructing the Pacific Railroad, in order to increase the enthusiasm of businessmen, the US government gave free subsidiary land on both sides of the railroad to companies and individuals involved in the construction of the railroad, of which North Pacific Railroad alone obtained 39 million acres. When the land was obtained, the capitalists who had only stared at Wall Street found that they had obtained a cornucopia. The land on both sides of the railway was flat and fertile, and the seeds they might harvest were gold. There was a joke at the time, "Farmers can cultivate for a few months along a straight line, and then they can harvest food on the way back.

Li Mu did not participate in the construction of the Pacific Railroad, so it was impossible to obtain land for free. To obtain this thousand acres of land, Li Mu paid two thousand dollars.

That's right, just for two dollars per acre of land, Li Mu acquired ownership of these lands—

Note that ownership is not the right to operate. After obtaining the certificate issued by the Springfield government, Li Mu is the legal owner of these lands. From now on, even civil servants of the US government want to enter the "kingdom" of Li Mu. Say hello to Li Mu.

Otherwise, it is illegal intrusion.

It must be said that the protection of private property by the US government is very strict. The phrase "sacred and inviolable personal property" is not empty words in the United States. If there is no legitimate reason, even the US military cannot enter Li Mu casually. Within four square kilometers, otherwise it is an illegal invasion. Li Mu can pick up a gun to protect his life and property.

After receiving the documents issued by the Springfield government, Li Mu and Will went to the small peninsula where Li Mu and Yan Hu and Yan Shun often practiced guns to inspect their "territories".

This small peninsula is actually only a part of the four square kilometers. The area of ​​the peninsula is a bit small. It looks like thirty to forty hectares, which is exactly in the center of the four square kilometers of Li Mu.

After seeing the shooting range on the peninsula and the bullet casings on the shooting range, Will suddenly realized: "It turned out that you had a premeditated plan, so you can just buy this small island. Why buy such a large area? "

Li Mu bent over and grabbed the sand on the ground, slowly crushing it in his hands, watching the sand overflow from his fingers, and fluttering with the breeze, I was really satisfied: "I didn't buy this island to build a shooting Field, but to build a factory here, did you find that the conditions here are very good? Not far from Springfield, close to the Connecticut River for easy transportation, there is a lot of wasteland for reclamation, and the soil is very fertile. In a few years, this place will develop into a perfect town-the key is that there are no traces of human life here. I can build it as I want.

What is certain is that in the future, Li Mu ’s factories will use a large number of Chinese, and the Chinese ’s feelings about the land are incomprehensible to other ethnic groups. If Li Mu promises to allocate an acre of land to each worker, he will gain the greatest degree of worker loyalty.

One acre is roughly equal to six acres of land. Even if there is no income from working in the factory, it is no problem to rely on farming to support a family of five people. Li Mu now has 1,000 acres of land, and at least 900 acres can be allocated to workers, which means that Li Mu can help 900 families and gain the loyalty of at least 900 workers.

"The idea is good. You do have some ability now, and you can think of giving back to society, which is very good." Will praised Li Mu verbally.

"The poor are alone, and the dad can help the world. That's how my ancestors taught me-how? Is it tempting to build a town from scratch? If you change your mind now, there is still a chance." Li Mu lost no time in lobbying Will and still wanted to win Will's investment.

Li Mu followed Weir for almost a month as a small follower and carefully calculated. This month's gray income shocked Li Mu too. Although Li Mu was a small head, Li Mu also had 500 dollars to account for, so Will's gray Income can be imagined.

"The poor is good at himself, and the world is good at everything-a very philosophical sentence, your ancestors are great." Will ignored Li Mu's lobbying and immersed himself in the mood of this sentence.

It is indeed very philosophical. This is a famous quote from Mencius. Li Mu did not say this to climb relatives. From the perspective of cultural heritage, the sages of ancient times were the ancestors of all Chinese, and their thoughts are worthy of all Chinese.

"Of course it's amazing. The Chinese nation has a civilization history of 5,000 years. How many years does the United States have? Even if you count Britain, you don't have many years of history that can be checked." When talking about traditional culture, Li Mu, as a Chinese, has Despise global capital.

"Five thousand years? You're kidding. **** was born less than two thousand years ago." The information is not so advanced these years, and Will has a hard time understanding what the concept of five thousand years is.

"No kidding, the earliest text we have found is Oracle, which is about now-uh, about 3300 years." Li Mu had to count with his fingers to get an approximate figure.

In fact, Oracle hasn't been found yet, but it doesn't matter, and Will couldn't go to the Far East to verify this.

"It's only 3300 years old." Will was hit hard. From the perspective of cultural heritage, Western society and the Eastern Empire were incomparable, and the gap was obvious.

"But Oracle records the last dynasty, which is about 4,000 years away." Li Mu was not in a hurry. He put the facts to the ground and explained that Chinese people can fight Americans as far as the Pacific Ocean.

"It's only been four thousand years--" Will said hard, but was discouraged before he could finish speaking.

Li Mu is talking about a "dynasty". Since it is a dynasty, it certainly does not appear out of thin air. It must inevitably take a long time to fight and fight to evolve from a tribal society into a dynasty. Will, even if he has not studied world history, understands that General law.
