At 5:45 p.m., the sun sets, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the lights are on.
In this era that has not yet entered the electric age, in the past, at this point in time, everyone had to go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.
Today is noticeably different, half an hour ago, the staff of the ZAMA Group began to work, pulling out rolls of wires from the sewer next to the exhibition booth, and then connecting the light bulbs together by the staff wearing hard hats and orange overalls.
New Yorkers are no strangers to electric lighting, although electric lighting has not yet entered the homes of thousands of ordinary residents, but in Central Park and Battery Park, electric lighting has been used on a large scale, especially in the fully open Battery Park and Castle Clinton, which has become the most beautiful scenery in Manhattan every evening.
Although it is not unfamiliar, there is no shortage of curiosity.
When they saw the colorful lampposts erected one by one, whether it was adults or children, they did not mean to go home, but gathered around the lampposts, waiting for the moment when the lampposts were lit.
At six o'clock, without any warning, it seemed as if a gust of wind blew through the Horse Automobile Plaza, and as if thousands of magnesium lights flashed at the same time, and almost instantly, the 600 lampposts on the square were lit up one after another.
According to later statistics, about a dozen lampposts did not light up for various reasons, and one of them exploded because of the instantaneous high voltage.
When the lampposts were lit one after another, the people in the whole square were cheering, even if there were one or two accidents, it became a spice in a joy.
The staff of the Horse Group wasted no time in starting another round of publicity, and the whole square was full of colorful leaflets printed and blonde beauties with bright smiles, which made it impossible to refuse.
"Sir, you must know that our Junma Group is about to launch a home lighting system, and for only ten dollars, you can install a set of such electric lights in your home, you must know that two months ago, such a system cost 10,000 dollars, so what are you hesitating about, you must hope that your wife and children will no longer have to endure dim oil lamps" Similar words filled the entire square, in order to achieve the best effect, the unified compilation of the Junma Group fixed words, as long as you listen to the first sentence, you will definitely fall into the next language trap.
The Horse Laboratory has finally made a breakthrough in long-distance power transmission, although the transmission of power is not stable enough, and there will be a large loss when transmitting over long distances, but after all, it is to solve the most basic transmission problem, so household electricity has finally been put on the agenda.
The Kufner Group is preparing to build a hydropower station on the upper Hudson River to power the whole of Manhattan, which will be the first hydropower station in the world and completely change the way people live for thousands of years.
Compared with the previous $10,000 power supply system, $10 is indeed a low price, but don't expect to enjoy much good service at this price, and the daily power supply time will be extremely limited.
Don't grab the land, Rockefeller is not a fool, the perpetual motion machine project has not seen progress for a long time, Rockefeller has also begun to look for new projects, New York is more smart people, that is the Horse Laboratory, the Rockefeller Laboratory such a scientific research institution, in New York has been everywhere, has made achievements in the Horse Laboratory, has become the target of all scientific research institutions, as far as Li Mu knows, no less than three laboratories will list long-distance power supply as a research project, maybe when, a research institution will make a breakthrough.
These institutes are not newborns without a background like Edison's labs, and behind each institute there is a big business, and it is no longer appropriate to use the simple and crude methods of the past.
At 8 p.m., a spectacular fireworks display has just begun, with countless colorful fireworks rising into the sky and transforming into countless gorgeous flowers in the sky.
When countless fireworks began to bloom in the night sky, the joyful atmosphere finally entered the climax, but this joy could not affect Castle Clinton, because of the arrival of Ulysses Grant, three steps and one post inside and outside Clinton Castle, and the atmosphere was really a little tense.
"How about the attacked driver and whether he can participate in tomorrow's qualifying" Grant came to New York yesterday, and of course he can't hide this from him.
"No problem, although the injury is a bit serious, I can guarantee that the people in our Junma Group are definitely tough guys."
Li Mu knows what kind of words will make a president who is a soldier happy, which is one of the reasons why Li Mu is invincible.
"That's good, when it comes time to qualify, I'm going to cheer him on myself."
Grant's greatest admiration is tough people, which can be seen from his style of employing people, since Grant became president, many generals in the army have been arranged to hold important positions in government departments, although this has been criticized, but you can't ask Grant to do better, because the generals in the army are the people he trusts the most: "There are always some people who want to be willing to degenerate, often the more they do, the more mistakes they will make, but many people don't understand this truth." ” Grant seemed to be moved by feelings, and the topic was opened, and it was also endless.
"It's just clowns, they will only hide in corners that ordinary people can't see to engage in conspiracy, and they won't be able to make a big climate."
Li Mu has enough confidence, maybe because of his limited ability, Li Mu can't help Grant get out of the predicament, but Li Mu still doesn't pay attention to these little troubles encountered by the Junma Group.
Even if Mason was killed in the attack a few days ago, it would not be able to shake the advantage of the Stallion Group in rallying.
The ranking of the competition is only one aspect, you put more attention on the organization of the event outside the competition, such as the fireworks show that is now going on in the square, to this extent, it can be said that Li Mu and the Junma Group have achieved success and have achieved the preset purpose, in other words, even if the Jiahua Year ends here, Li Mu and the Junma Group are also winners.
"I really don't know who did it, you should already have a goal" Grant believes in Li Mu's strength in New York, and from Li Mu's past performance, Grant believes that Li Mu will not give up.
"Of course, although they hired gunmen from the South, and they did it through the British, but I guess they forgot that this is New York, and they even use weapons produced by the Horse Arms Company, and it really won't be a trouble to find them, but I need a copy of your authorization so that I can deal with this matter thoroughly."
Li Mu does already have a goal, as for whether there is evidence to support his words, who cares.
"What person" Hearing that Li Mu wanted to authorize, Grant keenly felt that this matter must be a small matter.
"The Japanese, the four people involved in the attack were only a small part of them, and their target was not actually Mason, or they had no fixed target at all, and whoever appeared there at that point in time would have been their target."
Li Mu said it clearly, as if he had really obtained a confession.
The relationship between the Junma Group and the Japanese government has dropped to a freezing point, and the Japanese government once intended to reconcile, so the Japanese consul in New York, Nobu Watanabe, lingered in Battery Park for as long as a month, hoping to get an opportunity to meet with Li Mu and ease the relationship between the Junma Group and the Japanese government.
Li Mu believes that when the Japanese government decided to open a smokeless gunpowder factory and ignored the interests of the Junma Group, there was no possibility of easing the relationship between the Junma Group and the Japanese government, so Li Mu did not give Watanabe Shin a chance, even if Watanabe Shin hoped that Arthur would reconcile in the middle, Li Mu still resolutely refused.
After rejecting the Japanese government's reconciliation, the Junma Group's retaliation came so violently and decisively, although the Junma Group is not yet able to promote legal documents such as the Chinese Exclusion Act, but the Junma Group can use its influence to prevent most Japanese immigrants from San Francisco and New York from becoming American citizens, which is undoubtedly a blow to Japan, which is a small country and urgently needs to export labor.
In October, when the newly-born Bafan Iron sent people to the United States to seek further cooperation with the American shipbuilding industry and continue to buy scrap ships to dismantle steel, the Japanese were shocked to find that all the scrap ships facing dismantling had been taken by an unfamiliar company called the San Diego Shipyard, and the contract was signed until 1885.
In other words, before 1885, the Japanese shipbuilding industry, or the Japanese steel industry, could not receive any supplies from the United States.
This was a bolt from the blue for the nascent Japanese steel industry, and the representative of Hachiman Steel did not even return to Japan, and committed suicide by caesarean section in a small hotel in San Francisco.
It should be said that the Japanese government does not yet know that both the Shoma Laboratory and the Rockefeller Laboratory are researching nylon, and if the results of this research appear, then the raw silk industry on which Japan relied to support the Meiji Restoration will also be wiped out, and I am afraid that the Japanese government's choice at that time will not be assassination, but whether to start a war.
"Japan, can you be sure" Grant did not believe that the Japanese would dare to go against the sky so much, sending assassins all the way to New York, then it would not be far from Washington.
"Although the guy who escaped has not been caught, the three bodies left at the scene still prove a lot of information, my people recognized a guy named Jackson, this guy is a Florent, he fought in the Civil War, he has not had a regular job after the war, someone has seen him deal with an Englishman named William, and this William happens to be close to Nobu Watanabe, can you imagine, they are incredibly stupid, just ten days ago, Nobu Watanabe deposited $100,000 in an anonymous manner into the Bank of America, Then William took the money.
Speaking of this, Li Mu couldn't help laughing.
This is not stupid or not, the most dangerous place is the safest, there are always people who like to take risks, Li Mu has found all this now, so it seems that Watanabe Shin and William are indeed quite stupid, but if Li Mu doesn't find out, then Li Mu and the Bank of America will become a laughing stock.
"The British, they are a bunch of shameless cowards."

Grant didn't have a good impression of the British, the presidential palace was once burned down by the British, and the British almost got started directly in the Civil War, and even the just-concluded Battle of Montana was mixed with the British.
"Britain will decline sooner or later, and they are now going downhill."
Li Mu has no hatred for the British, and even if Watanabe Nobu can't find the British, he can find the French, Spanish or something else as intermediaries.
"Looks like you really hate Japanese people."
Grant understands the feeling, just as he looks at the British.
"If the level of hatred of the British is one, then the level of hatred of the Japanese is a hundred."
Li Mu does not deny that when this Grant is in front of him, there is no need to hide it, Li Mu still has many plans that need Grant to implement.
"What do you want to do" Grant finally gets to the nitty-gritty.
"Calculate the time, it's time for Sasebo's factory to start production."
It is not easy to make Li Mu suffer, where he falls, he has to get up from where he falls, and where he loses face, he has to get back from where.
"Be careful, don't let anyone get the hang of you."
Grant is also an understanding person, and instantly understood what Li Mu wanted to do, and there should still be a reminder.
This can be regarded as Grant's statement, although Grant does not object to Li Mu's revenge on Japan, but Li Mu does not plan that Washington will take the blame for the Junma Group.
"Don't worry, I don't plan to do anything, I just believe that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and if you do something wrong, you will definitely pay the price."
Li Mu is much more cunning than Grant imagined, at least he will not go into battle shirtless.
After getting Li Mu's promise, Grant finally relaxed, and walked out of the living room on the second floor with Li Mu, a grand banquet was being held in the hall on the first floor, which was a welcome dinner specially held for Grant.
Seeing Grant finally appear, there were earth-shattering cheers and thunderous applause in the president, all of whom were Republican members present, and everyone knew that the Republican Party had not had a good time recently, and Grant's pressure was also very great, so everyone urgently needed to relax and meet greater challenges.
"For New York," Grant gestured to the crowd as he raised his glass.
"For the Republicans" "For Mr.
President" "For Tonight's Party" It's really a discord, and the response is a bit of a mess, like the current situation of the Republican Party.
Grant didn't hear it, but still had a smile on his face, raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it down
