Back at his home on Wakiki Beach, Li Mu was in a happy mood. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

With the continuous efforts of Chu Wushuang and others, the scope of the wooden house is gradually expanding, and now there are more than thirty wooden houses, with various functions, conference rooms, restaurants, storage rooms, and weapons depots are gradually increasing, and the outer towers have also been built in one go, and there are no problems in safety.

The tower is the support point of the defense, there are people on duty on each tower 24 hours a day, the strongest weapon of the guards is a heavy machine gun, although there are still only more than 30 people in the camp, but if you want to break through the defense of these more than 30 people, there are not four or five hundred people who don't think about it.

It was indeed much more convenient to have a ship, and the "Sea Hussars" sent two sets of independent power supply equipment, which could currently provide light for twenty electric lights, although each wooden house did not fit a single electric light, but when night came, the bright lights were enough to make people happy.

The scenery of Waikiki Beach was already beautiful, but now it has suddenly added a bit of modern atmosphere, so the night has become the most dazzling scenery in Honolulu, and the locals of Honolulu have finally noticed here, but unfortunately it is still unknown to the enemy, so Li Mu has no intention of opening the camp for people to visit.

On the evening of the return to Waikiki Beach, Hawaii Episcopal Bishop Fern Jerome visited.

The Anglican Church has a strong English background, and its name Anglican Church literally translates to the religion of England, which is a branch of Protestantism, but they themselves do not think so, the Anglican Church considers itself an ecumenical Church, and calls the Pope "Bishop of Rome".

The Episcopal Church also has branches in the United States, but the Episcopal Church is called The Episcopal Church in the United States.

By the way, Arthur is an Anglican believer.

The Anglican Church of Hawaii was introduced by King Kamehameha IV to counterbalance the expansion of American power, and at this critical juncture, the Anglican Church is on a par with the American missionaries in the Congress of the Kingdom of Hawaii.

To tell the truth, Li Mu doesn't want to deal with religious people, although Li Mu declares that his faith is Catholic in order to integrate into American society, but Li Mu rarely goes to church, Li Mu knows very well that no matter what, as long as he has a relationship with religion, it will always become extremely troublesome, although it is a good thing to find a sustenance for his soul, but it is also a huge trouble if the object of sustenance is a behemoth like Catholicism.

Catholicism is different from Taoism in the East, it has its own black history.

A religion in the 21st century has been criticized a lot, right, in fact, Christianity before the 20th century was the same, why didn't the Anglican Church recognize them as Protestant?

It is to get rid of the threat of the Holy See.

Li Mu's reception of Fern Jerome at his home is still the chaise longue that Chen Guofang once made, or the same cold wine, but the atmosphere is completely different.

After Fern Jerome saw Li Mu, his mind was obviously not on Li Mu, but stared at the ceiling light on the porch for a long time, and then sighed to Li Mu: "It's really incomparable, this is definitely a great invention." ”

Li Mu's heart suddenly moved: "It is indeed a great invention, Mr. Jerome, my Junma Group is looking for a partner in Europe, how about it, is the Anglican Church interested?" ”

"Call me Fern, Ream, you mean—" Fern Jerome wasn't sure.

"Actually, we all have the same purpose, we are all to provide light to people, so if you Anglican Church are interested, we can join forces to form a company to jointly operate this great invention." Li Mu came up with the idea of the Anglican Church.

The power of religion should not be underestimated, the Anglican Church is the Anglican Church, which was originally founded by King Henry VIII of England, and Henry VIII was also the supreme head of the Anglican Church at that time.

At the very least, it can open the British market as quickly as possible.

"I'm sorry, Reem, your idea is genius, but it can't be realized, the Anglican Church is not a business group, and we are not engaged in business activities." Fern Jerome gave an answer that surprised Li Mu.

It's not unexpected, the Anglican Church is the Anglican Church, and the King of England is the big boss of the Anglican Church, so how can he be short of money.

Britain today is not the-stirring stick of the 21 st century, Britain is a dignified "empire on which the sun never sets," and its prestige in the world is unrivaled for a while, and the United States must retreat in front of Britain.

"That's a pity-" Although it was a bit unexpected, Li Mu didn't care, there was a huge Europe, Li Mu believed that he could find a suitable partner.

For now, compared to the United States, Europe is a concentration camp of wealth, don't forget that Europeans have been plundering the world for hundreds of years, and the accumulated wealth must be astronomical.

"But I can introduce you to a few gentlemen, maybe they're interested in your plans." Fern Jerome didn't say anything to death, leaving room for some time.

That's right, who can't get along with money.

Religion has always been a compassionate face when it appears to the world, and everyone is like Father Damien. In fact, the purpose of religion is certainly not so simple, and if you think about the resistance of the secular countries of Europe to the Holy See, you can see how unbearable religion has been in history.

"That's the best, I'll be in Hawaii lately, and if I'm not in New York." Li Mu is satisfied, no matter what, religion can deceive people's hearts, so with the help of the Anglican Church, this is conducive to helping Li Mu make money in Europe with maximum efficiency.

"Speaking of Hawaii, Ream, what are you doing here?" Fern Jerome finally got to the point.

Li Mu's current reputation -

Well, it is not at all an exaggeration to describe it as "notorious".

In Cuba, Li Mu helped the United States of Cuba drive out the Spaniards, which made Spain a laughing stock in Europe, and after so long of the incident, Reem's name spread throughout Europe with the defeat of the Spaniards.

Li Mu's identity is an arms dealer, this identity has no honor at all, war and death are synonymous with arms dealers, so all European countries that know what Li Mu has done in Cuba are wary of the name "Reem", to put it mildly, if Li Mu applies to colonize European countries now, no matter what reason Li Mu proposes, the possibility of being rejected is extremely great.

"What else can I do, vacation, sun, sand, wine - that's what I love." Li Mu was talking nonsense, and he didn't care whether Fern Jerome believed it or not.

Well, whether Fern Jerome believes it or not, Li Mu believes it anyway.

"Hehe, there are so many summer resorts, why did you choose Hawaii?" It was clear that Fern Jerome was not happy with Li Mu's reasoning.

"Then why can't it be Hawaii?" Li Mu smiled, fortunately, Hawaii is not a British colony, and Li Mu is not British, so he doesn't need to report to the British king where he wants to go.

"Absolutely, if it's just for a vacation, then Hawaii will definitely welcome you." Fern Jerome has a bit of an itchy tooth, but he still has to smile.

"Who wouldn't welcome that - even though I've only been here for less than half a month, I've already spent nearly $200,000 in Hawaii, which is not a common guest like me." Li Mu is confident.

There are indeed so many, Hawaii is rich in sandalwood, Li Mu, as a Chinese, knows the value of sandalwood very well, so for more than half a month, Li Mu has been constantly purchasing all kinds of sandalwood materials and furniture.

Li Mu was very envious of Chen Guofang's house built entirely of sandalwood, so he planned to get one on Governor's Island.

"Two hundred thousand dollars -- that's a lot of money!" Even Fern Jerome has to admit that Li Mu is rich.

The current 200,000 is not the 200,000 in the 21st century, and Hawaii is not a tourist attraction in the 21st century.

"Isn't it necessary to spend money when you earn it, otherwise you will desperately try to figure out something-" Li Mu said very easily.

"I hope you really think so—I heard you've been on Molokai the other day?" Fern Jerome's expression was still playful.

"Yes, there's a black sand beach over there, you wouldn't think of it, it's definitely God's handiwork, only the pink sand beaches of the Bahamas can match it, although there are lepers on Molokai, but it doesn't affect the beautiful scenery of Molokai, speaking of Molokai, Fern, if I want to buy somewhere, how much money do I need to give up?" Li Mu casually mentioned this matter.

As the bishop of the Anglican Church of Hawaii, Fern Jerome is very influential in the Hawaiian Congress, and if Li Mu can get Fern Jerome's consent, it will be very helpful for Li Mu to get Molokai Island.

"It's really disgusting local tyrant behavior, so how many do you come up with?" Fern Jerome did not directly reject Li Mu.

"A hundred thousand dollars?" Li Mu tentatively proposed a price.

"Could it be that in your concept, Molokai is inferior to some sandalwood furniture? It's a big island. Fern Jerome laughed dumbly.

"But there are lepers up there, and I'm willing to pay $100,000 for that virus-ridden wasteland, and I don't think $10,000 will come out in exchange for a person." Li Mu told the truth.

Mankind has always been very afraid of the unknown, especially disease, think of the Black Death in Europe, a terrible disease that claimed a third of the lives of Europe, and its destructive power was comparable to that of two world wars.

In 1894 there was no world war, so the disease was the unknown that Europeans feared the most, and for Europeans, leprosy was also one of the unknowns.
