(If there are no accidents, as of today, the number of words in the public chapter will exceed 300,000 words-under normal circumstances, at this time, regardless of whether the grades are good or not, it will be on the shelves. Yesterday I talked to the editor about this issue. If possible, send as many public chapters as possible in return for the brothers-so no matter what tomorrow, today or three chapters-for such an intimate share of Yutou, ask for a vote is not too much-)
Everyone knows about Grant's aptitude.
Grant's most criticized point is the almost catastrophic nepotism. During his presidency, Grant not only gave many important positions to his former colleagues in the army, but also at the request of his wife, he appointed some of his "mothers" as grand officials. This is also an important reason why Grant drew strong public opinion at the beginning of the cabinet formation: There are so many people in the cabinet who are either relatives of the president or relatives of the first lady-as many as dozens.
From the outsiders' point of view, this is of course the law of favoritism, but for Grant's relatives and colleagues, this is the standard "one person gets the way, the chicken and the dog rise to the sky."
Li Mu ignores the fact that Grant is a stranger to Li Mu. If he has another identity, then Grant is also a corruption criminal.
But for Will, Grant is an old boss of Will, a hero of the Northern Army during the Civil War, and a trustworthy army general. Reasonably, Will will not allow anyone to insult Grant.
The same is true of Li Mu.
Even if Li Mu is telling the truth.
Although the conversation broke up, the family still had to return.
Early the next morning, Li Mu and Will returned to Springfield with a group of more than sixty people, including members of the Springfield shooting team and gunmen recruited by Will during the shooting competition.
Speaking of using guns, the United States is indeed a good player everywhere. Among the more than 30 people recruited by Will, several of them have combat effectiveness that is almost the same as Yan Shun. From a perspective, their fighting power is stronger than Yan Hu.
Many of these people were soldiers during the Civil War. One of them was Ford Benjamin. At the end of the Civil War, he was named Captain of the Northern Army. However, this guy did n’t mix well. Later, when business broke, he had to return to his old bank.
After learning about this fact, Li Mu appointed Ford Benjamin as the captain of the Gunners, implemented militarized management of the Gunners, and strived to train all gunners as qualified guards as soon as possible.
Along with Li Mu and Will to Springfield, there was a man named Amos Ackerman, who was also very talented. From 1870 to 1871, Amos Ackerman served as Secretary of the United States Department of Justice. Ackerman was against the wrongdoing of railway owners. This is a rare integrity official, but after lobbying by the railway owners, Ackerman was soon dismissed by Grant. When dismissed, Grant praised Ackerman as a enthusiastic, upright and hardworking person, and offered to compensate for other positions, but was categorically rejected by Ackerman.
It now appears that the relationship between Grant and Ackerman does not seem to be so rigid.
"President Grant? Although he made some mistakes while leading the country and at the same time removed me from office, to be honest, I don't blame him. Grant also has Grant's difficulties, sometimes facing certain people or groups Grant can't do anything about it. "When it comes to Grant, Ackerman showed generosity.
"He may be a qualified general, but not a qualified president." Li Mu's failure to accept such a person to lead the United States made Li Mu think of some unpleasant things.
"The environment creates people, and people have two sides. Mr. President does not want corruption criminals everywhere in the United States, so President Grant ordered me to investigate the Mobilier Credit Corporation." Ackerman is mature, and this is not a newcomer to politics. Mantou Qing.
"Perhaps you are right, but I retain my opinion on this matter." Li Mu was still upset, not because of Grant, but because Will actually yelled at Li Mu because of Grant, which made Li Mu unacceptable.
In fact, Li Mu knows that Ackerman is right. People have two sides, even Li Mu is the same. When faced with a small fat man, Li Mu will show no mercy, but when facing Zhang Leye, Li Mu will help as much as possible. .
This is also the characteristic of the times of the United States at this time. Despite corruption and bribery, this kind of corruption was tolerated by some citizens for a long time. One of the important reasons is that in order to win votes, "urban bosses" will work hard to provide voters, especially immigrants, with job opportunities, loans and various services to win their support.
In a sense, the prevalence of "urban bosses" during this period is indeed related to the complex immigration issues in the United States. Immigrants do not care about the moral ideals of the middle class, but pay more attention to what the boss group can provide but the middle class cannot provide s things.
As immigrants have different ideas from the middle class, which is more anti-corrupt, they are more likely to be bought by the small favors of "urban bosses" and vote on these people.
This is also the American version of "Cangjie's knowledge of etiquette, food and clothing, and honor and shame." By the time of progress after the "gilded era", the number of middle-class Americans continued to increase, the number of new immigrants continued to decline, and anti-corruption has become a priority for all Americans. Problem, the problem of corruption in the United States will gradually decrease.
"Then you should understand that if you want to do something, then you have to adapt to the environment and learn to compromise-" Ackerman said with care.
"Oh, thank you Amos. In this respect, I have done more thoroughly than you." Li Mu laughed, suddenly feeling that the conflict with Will was nothing.
"That's right, I know what you did in Washington. Although your behavior is not upright, it has not caused much social harm. At least compared to people like Amis, you are not bad, but you Also be careful, I will always stare at you, and if one day you are on my blacklist, I will not be softened. "Akmantu saw poorly and finally revealed his true colors.
How to say, Li Mu ’s behavior in Washington is indeed not upright, but on the other hand, although Li Mu deceives those ignorant lottery buyers, Li Mu is also helpless. If Li Mu does not want to ride a carriage in high winds, discord Grimm and the same foul, that's good, Li Mu will be rejected by Grimm, Tony, Kenny, and nothing will happen.
As for those poor "sponsors", Li Mu did fulfill his promises. Including the printer owner, Li Mu did publicize their business. In this sense, those people's expenses have been paid off.
As for unlucky eggs like Bert Fremont, this matter has nothing to do with Li Mu. Li Mu didn't bind anyone and Li Mu didn't set fire. That was what Green instructed Tony to do.
When Ackerman finished speaking, Li Mu immediately realized Will's cuteness.
Will is also an emotional person, so Will will maintain Grant, this is not a problem, because Li Mu is very clear, if it involves Li Mu, Will will maintain Li Mu as well as Grant.
Such a "right or wrong" personality is actually quite cute.
