Speaking of reclaiming land, this job is really a long history. The Dutch have done this since the 13th century. Now in the Netherlands, one fifth of the territory is "made".

The Manhattan Peninsula is surrounded by waters. In addition to the lower city facing the New York Bay, the other directions are surrounded by the East River, Harlem River, and Hudson River. The space for reclamation is also the largest. If Li Mu has the ability, it will not be a problem to create another Manhattan Island.

"Reclaimed land-in what name?" Arthur was interested in Li Mu's proposal, and it was clear that this was a feasible strategy.

"Since you attach so much importance to public facilities, then I will build a park. Of course, by the way, I can build a few small houses for my company." Li Mu's abacus is good, and the company building is built in the park. It has become a garden-type building, which not only creates a beautiful working environment for the company, but also displays the company's compelling style near Xiacheng District.

What happened to Rockefeller?

It is not necessary to be honest in the steel jungle of Wall Street, the environment is certainly not as good as Li Mu Mirai's Empire State Building built in the park.

What happened to Morgan and DuPont?

Do you have the ability to turn Wall Street into a park?

If you really get what you want, then Li Mu's company will become the best company on the Manhattan peninsula. This alone is enough to attract attention. The reason why Li Mu has to fight hard to squeeze down the city is to grab the best resources and attract more attention.

"If you want to build a park, do you want to take over Battery Park?" Arthur finally opened his mind and thought of a best of both worlds.

"Battery Park? Where is it?" Of course, Li Mu is interested. It sounds like this is a bad project. This kind of project has the most oil and water.

"Battery Park is a planned park. This plan has existed for ten years, but it has not been implemented." Unlike Li Mu's expectation, what is this bad tail project, but only staying The project on paper did not start at all: "About ten years ago, the New York City government planned to transform the fortress area where Clinton Castle is located into a park, but for various reasons, this plan has not been implemented, so now Clinton Castle is still an immigration center on the East Bank, and you can take over the project if you want. "

The Manhattan peninsula this year is not just a business district. During the British-American War of 1808-1812, many castle turrets were built around New York City to defend the British offensive. The Washington Castle was built during that period. The "Battery" The word refers to the battery.

Ten years ago, before Tweed came to power, Li Mu did not know why this plan was not implemented, but it was related to the project budget.

Tweed is a well-known corruption emperor. Although this guy is keen on municipal engineering construction, if it is not a good project, this guy will certainly not waste any effort. The reason why Bartley Park stayed on paper is ten Over the years, Li Mu's estimate is also related to the project budget. After all, even Tweed, it is not easy to significantly increase the project budget that has already been formulated.

"Fortress Park-Your idea is good, but I remodeled the fortress area. Where does my building come from?" Li Mu is not afraid to spend money, but he cannot spend money without any purpose. Since the fortress park has been on paper for ten years For a long time, the relevant design must have been very complete, and every inch of land should have a plan. If the construction land cannot be squeezed out then, it will be a cup.

"There are four castle-type turrets in the battery area. The only one planned to keep is Clinton Castle. You can remove the other three castle turrets, and then build your building on the original site of the castle-" Arthur as the New York The Ground Snake, has a deep understanding of New York's urban planning, and it is easy for Arthur to want to find a hole.

Li Mu held his chin for a minute and decided to clap his head firmly: "Dry, let's go, how much does it cost to get through the joints?"

Li Mu was out of the way. In order to create a glorious facade for Steed Investment Company, Steed Weapon Company, and Time Magazine, Li Mu decided to make a bet.

"It does n’t cost much. This project is a personal hate. The city government ca n’t get the oil and water and is unwilling to start construction. The citizens look forward to the start but have no ability to promote. It should be enough. At that time, you can change the drawings at will and build the battery park as you want. "Seeing Li Muken taking over, Arthur also breathed a sigh of relief.

As one of Grant's confidants, Arthur knows how much Grant cares about Li Mu now, so Arthur is willing to pay Li Mu well. If Li Mu's business is big enough, then for Arthur, this will be the future of Arthur. Political resources, so Arthur is willing to extend an olive branch to Li Mu now.

Of course, the more major problem is that it is not possible to use up so much money to clear the joints. As a handler, Arthur should retain a part of it as public relations expenses.

"Okay, half a million, I'll send you the money tomorrow." Li Mu didn't feel bad about the money. Morgan had millions more waiting for Li Mu to get it. Winning a park in Lower Manhattan, this deal is still very cost-effective.

Early the next morning, Li Mu went to the battery area to check the environment before sending money.

It is still very good. The battery area is located at the southernmost end of the Manhattan peninsula. There are four castle-like battery cases lined up. The total area is about 20 acres. If the park is built, it will not be large, but it will cost a lot of money. The Lower Manhattan area is already very rare. The second castle on the right is Clinton Castle, which is used as an immigration center. Clinton Castle is about 200 meters from Broadway and no more than 600 meters from Trinity Church and Wall Street. It is located in the heart of Lower Manhattan. If you build a building here That would be the starting point of Broadway, the undisputed landmark of Manhattan.

In Li Mu's view, the battery area is entirely possible to expand. After all, the battery area is close to the New York Bay. If Li Mu spends a little more money and fills out a hundred meters of land, then it seems not difficult to expand it two or three times.

Of course, reclamation will definitely increase costs, but considering that this is the lower Manhattan, it is worth the cost.

"Here it is, find a way to buy two houses next to each other, and then connect them together. I'm going to build a tallest building on the Manhattan peninsula here. This will be the headquarters of our Steed Investment Company." Manhattan is a blockbuster.

"I have to say, you have such a bold idea." Grover Cleveland praised Li Mu's plan.

Grover Cleveland is now the head of the attorney team of Junma Investment Company. The operating activities of Junma Investment Company must be witnessed by Grover Cleveland. Li Mu will introduce Grover Cleveland and Arthur today. Li Mu will not be in New York. At that time, if there was any problem, Li Mu would communicate with Arthur through Grover Cleveland.

"After it is completed, there is a layer in it, you can move your law firm." Li Mu will now invest in Grover Cleveland. Anyway, Li Mu intends to build a dozens of high-rise buildings, Junma Investment There are only a few people in the company.

"That's great! Thank you very much, Mr. Ream." Grover Cleveland was overjoyed. As a New Yorker, Grover Cleveland knew how difficult it was to put a law firm in Manhattan.

"You're welcome, we are in the same camp now and should help each other." Li Mu opened his eyes and talked nonsense.

In fact, Grover Cleveland is a Democrat, and the Republican Party where Li Mu is a standard hostile camp, but this does not affect the cooperation between Li Mu and Grover Cleveland. The idea belongs to the idea and the business belongs to the business. Who would have trouble with money? How about--

"Oh, it's my pleasure to serve Mr. Ream." Grover Cleveland must have never imagined he would be president in a few years, so he is now very humble.

In order to hire Grover Cleveland, Li Mu gave Grover Cleveland a price of $ 5,000 per year. This price does not include daily expenses, that is, for example, the last time Grover Cleveland went to Springfield To defend Li Mu, Li Mu has to pay extra.

For Li Mu, this is not a problem. It can be very cost-effective to spend this money to pay for a future president. After Grover Cleveland came to the White House, he would do business for Li Mu casually. Li Mu Can earn back all the investment.

On April 30, two hundred grass-roots officers and skilled veterans required by Li Mu arrived in New York one after another. Within two days of waiting, Li Mu ordered George Dewey to lead officers to become familiar with the performance of new weapons, especially defensive grenades. Li Mu did not want to When it comes to combat, accidental injuries due to unfamiliar performance are absolutely not allowed.

What Li Mu wants are all veterans. All of them have participated in the Civil War. They have rich combat experience and are between 25 and 35 years old. These people are all legitimate adults and accept new things. It's fast, so the training progress is fast, and Li Mu is amazed.

Li Mu provided these veterans with a weekly salary of 30 US dollars per week, with an annual salary of about 1,500 US dollars. In order to support these 200 people, Li Mu had to pay about 300,000 US dollars each year. It ’s just salary. Considering their daily expenses, Li Mu has to pay about 500,000 US dollars in total. This is only normal. In the event of an injury or death, Li Mu has to pay a pension. The amount of pension is based on the annual salary. It is calculated that if it is killed, it is usually two years' salary, that is to say, the life of a person in this year is worth about three thousand dollars, which is the officially recognized price.

The annual salary is $ 1,500, which is a high-tech in this era. It is not a problem to support the livelihood of the young and old. Therefore, the 200 people under Li Mu have a strong desire to fight. They now want to fly to Cuba and drive the Spaniards away. Get your final bonus as fast as possible.

Yes, Li Mu has promised these officers that if they can help the Cubans drive away the Spaniards, they will each receive at least one year's salary as a reward.

The salary is always high, and bonuses are added.
