For Li Mu, it is only common sense, but in this era, it is a genius idea beyond the age.

The people of the nineteenth century were not stupid. They were only limited by the times. They didn't have the opportunity to see more. They were constrained by their own thinking mode, so they were not creative.

This is well understood. After all, they have no computer, no smart phone, and they cannot understand what is happening in this world anytime, anywhere. The information that Li Mu learned in one day in the 21st century may be better understood than an ordinary person in this era. There are many more, so Li Mu is so outstanding.

Many people will say that if a traverser does not have a golden finger or something, it will not be able to eat after crossing. This is actually the fundamental advantage of the traverser that is not understood. The traverser's own experience is the biggest golden finger.

Just an idea solved the problem that had troubled Arthur for more than a month, which made Arthur feel comfortable and had several drinks with Li Mulian.

Li Mu's idea is not mentioned in white. The New York City government will cooperate with the Junma Group to produce souvenirs dedicated to the independent centennial exhibition. The final gain is thirty-seven, three points belong to the Junma Group, and seven points belong to the New York City Government.

Li Mu is very satisfied with this result. When the New York City government promotes the official souvenirs, it will recommend the souvenirs of the subsidiaries of the Horse Group to all visitors. This part of the profit is not required by the New York City government. All are owned by the Horse Group. Therefore, even if Li Mu does not take the income of official souvenirs, Li Mu is willing to cooperate.

Who will sell more when that happens!

"There will be other countries participating in the Independent Centennial Exhibition. According to the general process, after the exhibition, the exhibits brought by those countries will be sold on the spot. In this regard, we can also do tricks. If we eat those exhibits, This is another large sum of money. "Arthur was also dark-hearted, inspired by Li Mu, Arthur was also thinking.

"This is simple. Congress has passed the" Protection of Trade Law. "Other countries want to sell exhibits. They pay taxes first, otherwise they can only ship them back. Presumably they will make the right choice." Li Mukeng It's an old business, and it slipped away.

In early 1874, in order to protect the domestic industry of the United States, the United States government imposed a high tariff of 95% on imported products. That is, if a bottle of brandy was sold in France for ten dollars, it would be charged 9.5 dollars when shipped to the United States. Tariffs, if combined with shipping costs, will make the French brandy sold in the United States for at least $ 20 or more. This price is enough to make French brandy not have any advantage in front of American wine, and the price difference of ten dollars is enough. Let ordinary Americans choose native wines, which are less expensive, but less expensive,

This is the case with food and industrial products, so since the introduction of the "Protection of Trade Law", European products have steadily declined in the US market and have basically withdrawn from the US market, while US domestic products have become more popular. Large companies with strong core competitiveness, such as the Group, had no rivals in the US market, but now have a stronger monopoly position.

"This one pays attention. The things that can be handed out for the exhibition are definitely the best products. We can eat all of them-" Arthur Haha laughed, as if he had seen Wu Shumei with wings. Arthur flew.

"Philadelphia is blind-sighted, and their city and state governments are reluctant to pay, because they have not seen the benefits of an independent centennial exhibition, such as the World Expo in Vienna. On the surface, the city government of Vienna has indeed lost money. Actually, The World Expo will last for several months. Within these months, all tourists will spend their food, clothing and accommodation in Vienna. These consumptions will bring more employment opportunities and consumption to Vienna, but these consumptions are subject to tax. Moreover, the World Expo will also leave a lot of venues. The use of these venues is a long-term investment, so the benefits are many, but unfortunately some people just can't see it. "Li Mu's eyes will certainly not just stare at his feet now. With a little bit of land, you can raise your head and look into the distance to have a wider field of vision.

"When it comes to the venue, you have a big advantage." Speaking of this, Arthur was a little reconciled.

"It's not necessarily who takes the advantage. If there is an extra large-scale library in New York, it will also be good for New York. You don't want New York to be full of copper smell. This city is the financial center of the United States and should also be a cultural center." Li Mu is not here The issue was entangled, and after a haha, the topic was quickly opened.

"Culture Center-What do you think?" Arthur also said little, giving the main stadium to Li Mu was originally a compensation to Li Mu. In fact, there is no such thing as loss or loss.

"No idea, this is your job. It has nothing to do with me." Li Mu doesn't want to talk too much with Arthur. City construction is the job of the mayor of Arthur.

"Damn, you always do that, only half of it." Arthur was not without complaint.

Halfway through the banquet, Yan Shun hurried over, holding a telegram in his hand: "Rim, the emperor Tongzhi has died--"

Yan Shun couldn't see much sorrow in his expression. He had left the Qing Empire for several years, and Yan Shun's impression of the Qing Empire gradually became indifferent.

"Emperor Tongzhi died?" Li Mu felt a little incredible, his face filled with shock.

If Li Mu remembers correctly, the emperor Tongzhi should have died in December, but it is only August now. It seems that Li Mu's arrival has caused a butterfly effect, and many things should be different from another time and space.

This is also normal. If Li Mu is still a student now, naturally it will not cause much butterfly effect. The problem is that Li Mu is now the owner of Junma Group, and the strength of Junma Group is enough to have an important impact on the United States and the world, so this butterfly effect a bit large.

The telegram was sent by Cheng Ye, this is not a telegram, because Li Mu is no longer a Qing national, and the emperor Zhizhi had no relationship with Li Mu.

What Cheng Cheng said in the telegram was about the gunpowder factory. Through Cheng's matchmaking, Li Mu planned to set up a gunpowder factory in the Qing Empire. The factory uses the latest technology and equipment to generate smokeless powder. This gunpowder factory has actually started production since the end of last year, but due to human factors, the output value has not completely broken out. Now it is affected by the collapse of the emperor Tongzhi. The gunpowder factory will temporarily suspend production. Cheng Yi gave a report to Li Mu, mainly to notify Li Mu this matter.

This gunpowder factory is only part of Li Mu's plan. Li Mu will continue to set up a weapons factory in the future to produce weapons in the Qing empire to supply the Qing imperial army. This is mainly to meet the challenges of the Japanese. Although Li Mu did not like the Manchu rulers, This is barely regarded as "contradictions among the people". Unlike the Japanese, although Li Mu is now a US citizen, Li Mu still believes that he and the Japanese are hostile.

"The death of Emperor Tongzhi-oh oh, this is a big event." Arthur was beside Li Mu and heard Yan Shun's words just now.

"Why, are you going to condolence?" Li Mu felt that Arthur should not be so noble.

"I won't go. This is the job of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy in Qing Dynasty. It has nothing to do with me." Arthur didn't go. For Arthur, the 100-year independent exhibition is the most important thing at present.

"I'm going to leave. You know, there are many Chinese in my factory. Except for this matter, I guess they are uncomfortable. I'm going to appease them." Li Mu responded quickly and immediately thought of the specific impact of this incident.

Li Mu is not sure what kind of impact this incident will have on the Chinese Americans. The "loyal monarch" of Chinese people is still more serious these days. Of course, this "monarch" is worth the emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty.

If it is an ordinary civilian in the Qing Empire, catching up with the collapse of the Tongzhi emperor will be a lot of trouble. The military and civilians must not be happy for a hundred days, they must not be slaughtered for 49 days, they must not be married within January, and they must not pray or worship God within 27 days. It is really cumbersome, but this is in the United States. Li Mu will definitely not let the Chinese ban it. If he can, Li Mu will let the Steed Group come forward to hold a sacrifice. This is the biggest concession Li Mu can make.

"Go, go, if there is anything that needs the cooperation of the city government, please don't be polite." Arthur knew what the Tongzhi emperor's death meant to the Chinese.

Although Li Mu himself knew that the rulers of the Manchu dynasty could not represent the Chinese, regardless of the "emperorism" of Li Mu, in this era, Manqing was the ruler of the Qing empire. This is an irrefutable fact, and Li Mu does not intend to This issue is a stumbling block, even if the adult Chinese are ignorant, Li Mu puts his hope on the next generation, and when the next generation receiving the new education grows up, Li Mu can naturally open his attitude.

But now is not the time.

Li Mu did not return to the Governor's Island that night, but took a special train directly to Springfield, the most Chinese, less than 200 kilometers away. The train ran for seven hours on the road, which made Li Mu very dissatisfied with the traffic this year. If there are highways and high-speed cars, this distance is a matter of up to two hours.

Zhang Leye has been notified by Li Mu. When Li Mu arrived at the Junma Weapons Factory, Zhang Leye was waiting with a kind of management personnel in the conference room.

As soon as Li Mu saw Zhang Leye, he asked about the condition of the factory. The result was not bad. Zhang Leye blocked the news in time. Now the news has not spread, so the workers in the factory have nothing to do.

Li Mu reassured himself a little, then instructed Zhang Leye to increase the propaganda of changing customs and vulgarities, and to minimize the influence of Tongzhi driving collapse on the Chinese.
