Whoever serves the bowl, you have to obey whom, the words are not rough, it is true in both Eastern and Western societies, the Western media sing praises for capital, and it is their duty to help cover up negative news, if you don't do this, the capitalists will teach you to be a man every minute, as for what "freedom of press and speech", that is the Wang Po selling melons and boasting about herself, casually talking about fooling people, who believes who is stupid.

The same is true of certain news media in the Republic of the 21st century, don't look at them all under the pretense of "national conscience", in fact, if you look at their background, you can see that these people are not actually picking up a bowl to eat, putting down chopsticks and scolding their mother, they are also helping their masters speak, but with good intentions.

If you think about it carefully, it is not easy for those people, on the one hand, they are carefully serving their masters, making some crooked melons and cracked dates to cheat some leftovers, and on the other hand, they also have to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and they do not hesitate to sacrifice their hearts and souls in order to promote the democratic process of others, this personality is really divisive.

Compared with those raised by the stepmother, "Time Magazine" is undoubtedly Li Mu's own son, although sometimes, "Time Magazine" also has to turn a blind eye and have a choice, but most of the time, "Time" reports are still very objective, as long as it has nothing to do with Li Mu and Junma Group, "Time" reports can uphold the principle of fairness.

If there is no accident, James Garfield's biggest opponent in the presidential race is Samuel Tilden, who lost last year's election, and the Republican Party, which has a serious internal struggle for power, the Democratic Party is united and determined early on that Samuel Tilden will continue to participate in the presidential race as the Democratic Party's candidate, which presets the position of "Time", regardless of whether Samuel Tilden's governing ability is stronger than James Garfield, "Time" will sing praises for James Garfield, This has nothing to do with bad conscience, in fact, no matter who is the president, the United States is a form of government, the president does not have much power in many things, President Hayes has been in office for two years, and it is impossible to push Congress to set up a committee of civilian officials, and if James Garfield wins the election and does not align with the entire class, James Garfield will also be unable to move an inch.

Coming to the "Lady of Liberty", we must visit Li Mu's private collection, Li Mu can be said to be rich in capital in this regard, the entire "Lady of Liberty" for decoration of more than 300 pieces of cultural relics and antiques, and all of them are qualified to enter the exhibition of the Horse Museum, the Democratic Party's position of the "Echo" newspaper has a special report on this, it is said that nearly half of the cultural relics in the United States are in the hands of Li Mu, including even the original "Declaration of Independence" signed by the representatives of the Second Continental Congress.

"Such an important document should be kept in the National Archives." James Garfield didn't expect that Li Mu could even get the original copy of the Declaration of Independence, which surprised James Garfield very much.

"There is no national archive yet, so it is better to take out such a historical document of great significance than to sleep in the archives of the presidential palace so that more people can enjoy it, so that he can give full play to his value." Li Mucai will not say how much money it cost to get the original "Declaration of Independence" back from Washington, and it is Li Mu's in Li Mu's hands, even if the Washington government asks Li Mu for it in the future, Li Mu can rely on it and refuse to give it, after all, private property is sacrosanct, isn't it, the "Declaration of Independence" says.

To say that this year to engage in collection is really not too simple, the United States is now only the horse museum this museum, private want to sell antiques, and sell at a good price, either directly to the horse museum, or through the beach club auction, and Li Mu has the greatest convenience in this regard, many times Li Mu can not through the auction, at a very low price to get precious antique cultural relics, and the twenty-first century, this year of antiques is not even the price of cabbage.

Washington will not establish a national archive until 1934, before that, Li Mu still has a lot of time to buy slowly, leaving not many opportunities for others, inspired by Li Mu, there are also several wealthy people in New York who want to set up a museum, but they are forced to abandon this idea because of the lack of exhibits.

"Reem, I'm also going to set up a museum, you have so many good things here, how about transferring them to me?" Rockefeller is also interested in building museums, and now Rockefeller has passed the stage of primitive accumulation, and has begun to try to improve his personal prestige, at least he can't be scolded as a "robber tycoon" all day long, although sometimes Rockefeller will even be proud of it, but robbers are robbers, and this title will not bring much glory to Rockefeller.

Li Mu also has a nickname called "arms dealer", this nickname and Rockefeller's "robber tycoon" is not much better, but around Li Mu's reputation is mixed, although the sale of arms is hurtful, but Li Mu is also actively engaged in cultural undertakings, which has brought a lot of benefits to Li Mu, and there will be more and more benefits in the future, Rockefeller must have discovered this, just do something good can brush a wave of prestige, and the collection of antique cultural relics will increase in value, this kind of good thing is not common.

"Don't think about transferring, it's okay to lend you a little, but you have to pay rent, and if you have any good things, you have to lend me them to be exhibited in the Horse Museum." Li Mucai will not do a loss-making business, the antiques and cultural relics in these years are almost sold by catties, Li Mu has always only been in but not out, Rockefeller wants to pick up cheap here in Li Mu, not to mention the door, not even the window.

"That's it, I'm going to set up an oil museum, get some oil equipment to put in it, if you're interested, just take it away, I'll give it to you, don't need money." Rockefeller despised Li Mu's behavior of money and money at every turn, obviously a very elegant thing, which made Li Mu stink, really.

Rockefeller started with oil, there is a lot of oil equipment, and those that can be put into the museum should be some years, maybe they have been eliminated, Li Mu is definitely not interested in this kind of thing, so Li Mu does not accept this stubble at all, Rockefeller is willing to say cool things, anyway, it is impossible to take advantage of Li Mu.

"Didn't the New York State government and the New York City government establish a museum?" James Garfield was also inspired, and this kind of thing is not only needed by businessmen, but also by politicians.

"I don't think so." Li Mu and Rockefeller Dole, the New York State government and the New York City government really don't seem to have this idea.

If you want to say the benefits of museums, it's not that the state capital and city government can't see it, after all, New York's politicians are not fools, everyone can see the benefits of museums, but it's a pity that even if you see it, you can't operate it, Li Mu's museum has become a benchmark for New York culture, whether it's the New York state or the New York city government, it won't create another museum to try to share the glory of Li Mu, this is not a grand event, it should belong to Li Mu's glory, no one can take it, and the state government and the city government don't want to take it.

Well, the most important thing is, don't dare to take it!

"There should be museums at the state and city levels, and even at the national level, we have a lot of things to remember—" James Garfield said bluntly, perhaps sensing that his tone was a little stiff, James Garfield turned to Li Mu with a sincere attitude: "—Ream, please forgive my honesty, the original Declaration of Independence, such an important document, should still be kept by a state institution and displayed in a national exhibition hall. ”

The words are good, but they don't meet Li Mu's expectations, what should be? The original "Declaration of Independence" was bought by Li Mu with money, Li Mu put it where he wanted, said something irresponsible, and it was normal to burn it for heating, as for James Garfield's words, Li Mu habitually ignored it, this is the standard standing and talking without backache, what you get with your ability, why do you say "should", others have to cooperate unconditionally?

The U.S. doesn't**.

"If a national museum is established in Washington in the future, then of course I will cooperate." Li Mu still has to say what should be said, as for the promise is not given, if the National Museum is established in Washington in the future and sends a request to the Horse Museum, then Li Mu can cooperate with the National Museum to a certain extent, but it is only cooperation, and it must be based on the premise of the National Museum's request, it is impossible to let Li Mu take the initiative to carry forward the style.

"Look at this, what is it?" Rockefeller took the initiative to divert the topic, and it was clear that Rockefeller was also unimpressed by James Garfield's words.

Taking advantage of Rockefeller's diversion of James Garfield's attention, Li Mu and Arthur exchanged tacit glances.

Arthur smiled a little awkwardly, and made a sneaky face at Li Mu behind James Garfield.

Li Mu laughed it off, and didn't take it to heart, even if James Garfield was successfully elected, Li Mu would not rush to kneel and lick, and the intensity should not be less at all.

What Rockefeller used to distract James Garfield was a gold mask, which was Will's trophy in Montana, supposedly belonging to a famous Indian chieftain, and Will had seized many similar gold items, most of which had been placed in the basement of Governor's Island, and only some of the fine products were taken to the "Lady Liberty" as decoration.

Like the original of the Declaration of Independence, the gold mask was casually displayed on the Bogu shelf next to the dining room, with no frames or glass display cases, so exposed to the air, and if Rockefeller wanted to, he could even just pick it up and try to see if it was appropriate to wear it.

Of course, Rockefeller would not do such a thing, he still had the qualities he should have, and his gaze at the golden mask was not greedy, but only surprised and curious.

Well, the history of the United States is indeed lackluster, this kind of Indian chief's belongings can already be counted as part of the history of the United States, at this stage, such a thing also has a special meaning, symbolizing the conquest of the Indians by white Americans, in the twenty-first century, it is estimated that no one regards this as an honor, but in this era, it is clear that everyone is proud of it.

"This is Will's trophy in the Battle of Montana, it is said to be the mask of the Indian chieftain sitting on the bull, Will originally wanted to melt it down and make a necklace to give to someone, I asked for it, I think, the workmanship of this thing is not bad, and it has some ancillary value, which is better than making a necklace." Li Mu didn't lie, if the golden mask is disposed of by Will, eighty percent will be rebuilt, soldiers, don't expect to have a high sense of cultural relics protection.

"Hahahaha, you should make it into a necklace, and then when a certain lady hangs the necklace around her neck, tell her that it is a mask of a sitting cow, I think, the expression on that young lady's face must be wonderful." Rockefeller laughed, clearly more in favor of Will's idea.

For Rockefeller, the greatest meaning of wealth is nothing more than this, what about the gold mask, what about the belongings of the sitting cow, in the eyes of Rockefeller, the value is probably not worth a joke.

"I heard that the 1st Cavalry Division also captured a golden scepter in Montana, is that golden scepter here?" James Garfield was also curious, he didn't say anything to spoil the fun this time, probably because he realized the correct attitude of communicating with Li Mu.

The 1st Cavalry Division captured a lot in Montana, and when Will returned to New York from Montana, it was no secret that the booty alone filled an entire train car, and at the time of the Battle of Montana, James Garfield was a member of Congress and had his own source of information, and James Garfield himself had participated in the war, so he was no stranger to this kind of thing.

"It's not one, it's a lot, some of them are inlaid with gems, but they are not particularly beautiful, so they are all in the warehouse of the Horse Museum, and if there is a chance in the future, the Horse Museum will open an exhibition hall dedicated to the trophies of the Indians." Li Mu's answer is simply speechless, there are so many collections about Indians that it is necessary to open a special exhibition hall, which shows the richness of the collections.

"It's so jealous!" Now even Rockefeller has to sigh that the most ordinary things here can be passed on as heirlooms in ordinary people's homes, but in Li Mu's place, it is just an inconspicuous little toy.

"I'm just one step ahead, a lot of my collection is still sold to me by you, by the way, I never seem to have said thank you to you, I hope you don't mind." Li Mu is simply outrageous, this is pouring salt on Rockefeller's wounds alive.

"I don't need you to say thank you, I'm going to take it back now, and I'll give you some more interest at most." Rockefeller decisively cheated, which has nothing to do with character, it is a joke between friends.

"Don't even think about it, what comes into my hands is mine, and no one will give it to me." Li Mu said this not only to Rockefeller, but also to James Garfield.
