Of course, Li Mu will not let Gloria become a war correspondent, this decision should not be made by Li Mu, for now, it is Will who has the right to make this decision.
So Li Mu sent a telegram to Will, and Will's reply was only one short word: no.
Well, that's succinct.
The reason why Li Mu agreed to Gloria to work in Time magazine was to temporarily stabilize Gloria, and when Will returned to New York, Li Mu would instruct Samirakin to agree to Gloria to become a qualified reporter, as for whether Gloria still insisted on becoming a war correspondent at that time, this issue would be handed over to Will to deal with.
Time magazine's headquarters are located a little more than a kilometer from Battery Park, and Li Mu also asked Gloria for advice to transport Adolf from Springfield to New York, where Gloria will ride to and from work.
This is not uncommon, although cars have appeared in these years, horses are still the most important means of transportation, Li Mu originally planned to give Gloria a car, but Gloria refused.
Gloria doesn't want to be too out of line, she just wants to prove that she can be a journalist with her abilities.
It's still naïve, Li Mu is already ready to arrange for several gunmen to infiltrate Time magazine and serve as Gloria's bodyguards, and even including Elena, Li Mu is ready to develop into her own eyeliner, so no matter how low-key Gloria is, she can't be an ordinary person again.
Leaving the headquarters of Time Magazine, Li Mu returned to Governor's Island.
Construction on Governors Island has begun, New York has a cold winter, and spring, summer and autumn are good seasons for construction, Li Mu can't waste time to build Governors Island into a real home.
The Sea Ranger is parked in New York Bay, and Li Mu takes a traffic boat between Manhattan and Governors Island, which is equipped with a gasoline engine produced by the Horse Company, which is most suitable for short-distance transportation, and can also be used as a patrol boat, Li Mu has authorized the San Diego shipyard to produce patrol boats based on gasoline engines, and the New York Customs will be the first customer of the San Diego shipyard.
Situ Lei was waiting for Li Mu on Governor's Island.
During Li Mu's trip to Hawaii, Situ Lei bought a hotel in Manhattan and named it the Chinatown Hotel as Hongmen's first foothold in New York.
As a gangster organization, Hongmen still has a lot of financial resources, in just four months, Situ Lei acquired three bars, a freight company, and cooperated with Junma Electric Company to undertake part of the line laying project, which is already a small climate.
"Mr.
Ream, this is the property certificate of the company's location, according to your instructions, every time we buy a company, we will also buy the land, so far we have sold six plots of land in Manhattan, and all the property certificates are here."
As soon as he met Li Mu, Situ Lei gave him a meeting gift.
Li Mu reminded Situ Lei, don't look at the cheap land in Manhattan now, and there will be every inch of land in the future, so while you can still buy it now, even if you smash the pot and sell iron, you have to hoard land, and in the future, this is all wealth, which can be passed down as an heirloom.
Situ Lei obeyed Li Mu's words as if he were a holy order, and Li Mu asked Situ Lei to do whatever he wanted, and he didn't dare to fight at all.
Of course, it seems that Situ Lei's understanding is a little wrong, Li Mu asked Situ Lei to buy land because he wanted to buy the next property for Hongmen, but Situ Lei is now giving these lands to Li Mu, which really makes Li Mu laugh.
Just kidding, Li Mu now has a big family, how can he look at the land of his boss Tu Lei.
"What you buy is yours, keep it, it will appreciate in the future."
Li Mu casually returned the industrial certificate to Situ Lei.
"Mr.
Ream, this freight company, there is a warehouse on the other side of Pike Street, covering a fairly large area, I have people survey the geology over there, it is absolutely no problem to build a high-rise building, Mr.
Ream, you didn't look for land here some time ago, this land is just given to you."
Situ Lei can also be regarded as having a heart and knows how to do what he likes.
"Okay, then leave it alone."
Li Mu did not refuse this time, and accepting this land can at least reassure Situ Lei's heart.
The help provided by Li Mu to Situ Lei may not be worth mentioning in Li Mu's opinion, but in Situ Lei's view, this kind of help is tantamount to rebuilding with kindness.
No one wants to be inferior or, especially people like Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang, they shouldn't have lived a mediocre life, it's just because of the bad environment that they have compromised, Li Mu has created a space for them to play freely, no matter how much emphasis is overpowered.
Of course, Situ Lei didn't expect to give Li Mu a piece of land to not owe each other, but this would make Situ Lei feel at ease and make Situ Lei feel that he could help Li Mu, which was very important.
"Now that I have stabilized my foothold, I will start to expand, I ask every street, every organization, and every ethnic group to have your eyeliner, I want to know what is happening in New York every day, what will happen, can you do it?"
Li Mu gave Situ Leijia the burden.
If it is said that gaining a firm foothold is Li Mu's assessment for Situ Lei, then Situ Lei has now successfully passed, and it is time to add to the burden.
In fact, Li Mu no longer needs to care about these trivial matters, but Li Mu now regards New York as his base camp, since it is a base camp, then he must manage it carefully, whether it is official, or on the street, or anything in business, Li Mu can not interfere, but he must know.
"No problem, Mr.
Ream, but if it is expanded to the whole of New York, then we will have a manpower" Stuart was confident, but he was not able to do so.
Situ Lei now has only one hundred and ten people, and it is no problem to control a few strongholds, but it is really powerless to expand outward, New York is also a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands, not only a large number of people, but also complex composition, Irish, Italians, Mexicans, and even blacks, all have their own gangster organizations in New York, if the Chinese want to insert a lever, it is indeed a bit insufficient to rely on Situ Lei's one hundred and ten people.
"You don't have to worry about manpower, Wushuang will come back in a few days, and there will be no manpower at that time.
Li Mu is not worried about manpower, just kidding, how can the Chinese be short of manpower.
There were no surprises in the Hawaii referendum, which is now the state of Hawaii in the United States, and Chen Guofang was elected to the Senate as he wished, and the other senator was Stanley Dewey.
This result is not bad, the Chinese have won at least half of the right to speak, and Chen Guofang is also the first Chinese-American senator in the United States, which is really gratifying.
The British have not officially responded to this result, but Prince Edward, who was originally scheduled to arrive in New York this month to sign a cooperation agreement with Li Mu, has never come, which makes Li Mu feel a little bad.
How to say that Edward is also a prince, he definitely didn't come to New York just to sign a contract with Li Mu, maybe there are some changes in it that are fermenting, but Britain is not Li Mu's sphere of influence, Li Mu has no way to speculate, and can only wait passively.

The dust has settled in Hawaii, and Chu Wushuang's people have become rootless, Stanley Dewey means to merge this force into the rifle team that has been reorganized into the National Guard, Li Mu agreed to part of it, and the final result is that half of the troops join the National Guard, and the other half return to New York with Chu Wushuang.
This group of people has received full military training, and when this group of people returns to New York, the gangsters in New York should be wiped out.
No matter how powerful the gang is, it is only a gang, and it can't compete with the organized army, Li Mu is an arms dealer who can equip his subordinates with the most sophisticated weapons, plus Bresta's cooperation, if it can't drive other gangster organizations out of New York, Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang had better go back to San Francisco as soon as possible.
As for the manpower on the construction site, this is Li Mu's backhand, the Junma Construction Company adopts militarized management, all members have joined the Rifle Association, it is Springfield militia, and it is Springfield that has to spare three weeks every year to receive special military training, it can be said that the quality of the workers is not much worse than that of the regular army, and it is even more different from those gangster organizations that eat, drink and have fun all day long, so even if there is no Situ Lei and Chu Wushuang, Li Mu will look for other agents.
"In that case, Mr.
Reem, you can see, I promise to drive all the gangs out of New York within half a year."
Situ Lei gave Li Mu a military order, taking this as another assessment.
"I'll take you to Bresta tomorrow and introduce you to each other."
Li Mu began to share the resources in his hands with Situ Lei.
Although Bresta is a police officer and Stuart is a gangster, they seem to be two groups that are incompatible, but in fact the two groups are dependent on each other.
During the Tweed period, although Tweed covered the sky in New York, many things still had to be done by the gangster Mahoni, and it was the same during the Arthur period, as long as Arthur wanted to make something, then Arthur also had to take it all in black and white.
Of course, the current Situ Lei is not qualified to go directly to Arthur, and it is enough to know Bresta.
Situ Lei is going to grab land with others next, this kind of thing must first say hello to the police station, it's not good to go to Arthur because of this, if he really doesn't know how to advance or retreat, then maybe Arthur will really kill his relatives in righteousness.
"Okay."
Although Situ Lei is a deep city, he still can't help but be a little excited.
Situ Lei knew that Bresta was the deputy chief of the police department, and he also knew that the real chief didn't care about anything, so Bresta was in the current New York Police Department, as long as he got on the line with Bresta, Hongmen would be able to walk sideways in New York in the future.
Seeing Situ Lei away, Li Mu finally calmed down, this time he didn't shout the first snow, Li Mu made a cup of tea by himself, and sat on the recliner by the window to relax.
In the distance, dark clouds were gathering in the sky, and a torrential rain came unexpectedly
