At 6 o'clock in the morning, Li Mu woke up on time.

The fireplace was blazing, and the temperature in the room was a little high, Li Mu casually tidied up the cotton nightgown on his body, stepped on the fluffy carpet with his bare feet, and came to the window to open the curtains with a bang.

Governor's Island has not yet woken up in the early morning, except for the night watchmen who have not slept all night in the distance, most people should still be asleep, there are sparse snowflakes falling gently and softly in the sky, the lawn outside the window and the green belt in the distance are covered with a light veil, perhaps because the fireplace used is a little too much, there is a faint mist around Governor's Island, it looks like a dreamlike fairyland, a cruise ship slowly sails past Governor's Island, the lights are still on in the cabin on the top of the cruise ship, and there is a faint sound of laughter and music. These people who don't return all night are still partying.

Li Mu is not in the mood to revel, there will be a third round of voting this morning, this time there should be no more accidents, at least there is no need to use electric lights during the day.

After a simple wash, Li Mu changed into the outfit that Chu Xue had prepared last night.

A black slim wool suit with vertical lines, black three-joint short leather boots, and a short black trench coat are both mysterious and steady, which can highlight Li Mu's unique simplicity and ability to the greatest extent.

"Leo, call Castle Clinton and tell them we'll be there in 30 minutes... Mason, tell the dock to prepare a speedboat, let's leave as soon as we've got breakfast... First snow, don't prepare my lunch at noon, I shouldn't be back..."Li Mu walked down the stairs in three steps and two steps, and immediately turned around the group of people.

Two poached eggs and a glass of milk, this is Li Mu's breakfast.

Just ate the poached eggs, and before the milk could be drunk, Yan Shun, who had finished the call, came back to report: "Mr. Governor has gotten up and is waiting for you at Castle Clinton..."

That's right, I guess Hayes didn't sleep well last night.

At least not as well as Li Mu, it would be good to be able to fall asleep.

"Reem, the speedboat is ready." Mason was also very efficient and well prepared.

"Let's go, it's not good to keep Mr. Governor waiting for us." Li Mu pulled down the napkin around his neck and drank the milk in the cup in one gulp.

"Goodbye Chuxue, goodbye Sandy, goodbye Pan..." Li Mu greeted one by one, his steps were unusually brisk.

"Good luck Riem." The first snow is still gentle.

"Come on Reem, kill them!" Sandy is in the midst of a voice change and rarely speaks at the top of her voice.

Pan wagged his tail and chased a few steps out, and sent Li Mu to the corridor, it was snowing outside, and Pan didn't like this kind of weather very much.

Li Mu turned his head, smiled, waved, and then walked away quickly with a group of people.

No matter what time it is, Clinton Castle is always crowded, and when Li Mu came to Clinton Castle, Hayes and a group of people sat around the fireplace and chatted happily.

"We're definitely going to win today's vote, no one can stop us from moving forward, don't worry about the Democrats, they're just a bunch of clowns, we're sure to beat them and we're going to win forever, those poor guys can only hide in the cowshed and cry, God won't bless them..."Hayes's voice was loud, foaming at the mouth with a glass of wine.

"Yes, we're going to win."

"Kill the Democrats!"

"I want to kick them in the ass with my shoes."

The surrounding Republican delegates echoed, and then burst into a burst of hearty laughter.

"You guys had a great time, can I join?" Li Mu is very polite, without any consciousness as a master.

"Oh, look who's coming, our dear Ream, the best Republican rising star, the future candidate for secretary of state, and he's still the king of Manhattan..."

No one could still sit, and everyone stood up to salute Li Mu.

In other words, it is to pay tribute to the wealth in Li Mu's hands with a stand-up.

Money itself is not sinful, what is sinful is those who want to obtain money by any means necessary, relying on their own ability to make a fortune, and indeed deserve respect.

After everyone greeted each other, they sat down again, Li Mu's position was next to Hayes, although Li Mu and Hayes were also in the center, but it was obvious that everyone's attention was focused on Li Mu.

"We're talking about a vote coming up later, so there shouldn't be any more power issues today, right?" Hayes was extremely relaxed, and he also had the heart to joke with Li Mu.

"Probably not, even if it will, it's fine, I have people prepare candles, and if there is a problem with the power supply, we will use candles instead." Li Mu is not worried about accidents, in fact, if the troublemakers do not have the strength of Rockefeller, making waves at this critical moment is tantamount to looking for death.

"Good idea, we could give out a candle to each person, maybe we can use candles instead of ballots." Hayes had a big brain, and he felt like a soldier was coming to block the water and cover the earth.

Everyone was hahaha again, Li Mu saw that the time was almost up, so he proposed to go to the New York City Hall.

Sitting in the car and looking out the window at the security guards who were trotting with the BMW, Hayes remembered to ask about security.

"Don't worry, there is not the slightest problem in this regard, the New York City Police Department basically sent all the police officers on duty at the scene, and there are also security personnel from the Springfield Company on the scene, plus the bodyguards hired by the representatives, Will also specially sent a cavalry company over, if anyone wants to find trouble, he has to hire an army." Li Mu is not worried, the reason why there was an accident last night was because no one thought that there would be an inner ghost at all, otherwise Rockefeller's people would not be able to succeed so easily.

"That's good, I can't wait to see James Bryan's disappointed face." It seems that Hayes is also full of resentment, and it is estimated that the pressure during this time is too great.

When I arrived at the New York City Hall, it was really heavily guarded, and martial law had begun from two blocks away, and all unrelated personnel were not allowed to enter within 500 meters of the city hall, including the bodyguards around the delegates, who were classified as irrelevant personnel.

The deputies are also subject to inspection, all offensive weapons are not allowed to be brought into the city hall, pistols, fruit knives, and even lighters are counted as contraband, Li Mu also found two grenades on the table next to him, and he doesn't know which two people brought them, fortunately they were found out, otherwise the United States estimates that the war on terror will start 100 years in advance.

Li Mu and Hayes are one of the few people who can enjoy privileges, and they don't need to be pinched from head to toe, but Mason and Yan Shun are not so lucky, they are also unrelated people, and they have to stay in the car honestly and wait.

"Hehe, this is a good thing, a good thing..."Li Mu nodded again and again, expressing great satisfaction with Bresta's arrangement.

"Why?" Still confused.

"Hehe..." Li Mu just laughed and didn't explain much.

In addition to Li Mu, most of the other Republican delegates are young old men, Hayes is nearly sixty years old people can already be called young and strong, it is estimated that among the more than 700 delegates, Li Mu's age is the youngest, Li Mu has been looking forward to the outbreak of all-martial arts in the venue, and if there is a fight later, Li Mu, a young and strong person, will definitely be able to take advantage of a lot.

The town hall was as lively as yesterday, the corridors were full of people, and there were people chatting on the lawn in front of the town hall, although there were snowflakes in the sky and there was a growing trend, but this did not affect the enthusiasm of the people.

Hayes's arrival was like a pebble thrown on the surface of a calm lake, and it immediately stirred up the otherwise calm crowd.

"Congratulations, Mr. Hayes."

"Good luck, Mr. Governor."

"Come on Governor..."

Acquaintances and non-acquaintances would come over to say hello to Hayes, and the enthusiasm of the people was much higher than last night, and it was not difficult to sense from their words that something must have happened here.

Li Mu casually grabbed a familiar delegate, wondering what he had missed.

"Mr. James Bryan came just now, his expression is not very good-looking, and Mr. Rockefeller is talking at length, if you pass by outside the room, then you will find that they are chatting passionately..."

None of the people who can come here to participate in the voting are fools, and the big guys' ability to observe words and emotions has reached the peak, even if it is just a random look, or a random action, they can interpret countless answers.

Amazingly, these answers are often very close to the truth.

When Li Mu and Hayes walked to the door of the city hall, in the room where Li Mu and Rockefeller stayed last night, Li Mu heard Rockefeller's voice.

“… James, don't ask me why, look for answers from yourself, you were wrong from the beginning, there are some people you can't refuse, no matter how much it costs you. Rockefeller's voice was impatient, subconsciously a little high.

"You mean Reem?" James Bryan's voice was so low that if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear what James Bryan was saying.

"I haven't said anyone, until now, we have done everything we can, and if the result is still failure, then we can only accept it calmly." After Rockefeller finished speaking, he opened the door with a bang.

Through the crack in the door, Li Mu clearly saw that James Bryan was sitting on the chair that Rockefeller sat on last night, but his posture was not as arrogant and domineering as Rockefeller, with his head down, his head hanging, his elbows propped up on the armrests of the chair, and he kept rubbing his forehead.

It's really sad that before yesterday, James Bryan was in high spirits, but now the word "Xiao Suo" is written all over his body.

Rockefeller was a little stunned when he saw Li Mu at the door, and then snapped the door with a snap, showing a warm smile to Li Mu: "You're a little late." ”

"I live close... So there's no need to get up too early. Li Mu also smiled, this smile was also adjusted in the mirror, the standard eight teeth, impeccable.

"Let's go, let's go, I'm going to tell you good news, can you believe it? My lab has extracted something called plastic from the residue of oil, and it's amazing, it's a lot of things, it's very versatile, so I have to thank you, without you, I wouldn't have my Rockefeller lab. Rockefeller was a little excited, and walked into the city hall with Li Mu's shoulder.

Li Mu was stunned, the Rockefeller laboratory actually made plastic!

Is it April Fool's Day?

And the name of plastic, which seems to be called synthetic resin, what does it have to do with petroleum residues?

And even if plastic can be extracted from petroleum residues, can this be turned into reality from the current level of technology?

Too many questions echoed in Li Mu's mind, and he didn't have time to think about Rockefeller's words.

“… Let's hurry up and finish this damn voting process, and then I'm going back to Pennsylvania, and I'm going to give out prizes to my fellows, and it's going to be more than you..."Rockefeller's babbling in Li Mu's ear, there was a kind of dripping pleasure that the blood feud had been avenged today.

"Hair, trust me, it's a good thing." Li Mu supports the payment of bonuses to scientific researchers, which is no less than an invention of a car or a telephone.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the delegates finally entered one after another, otherwise it was Republican Chairman Henry Robles who presided over the meeting, and there were nine people sitting on the podium, who were members of the Democratic Party's campaign committee, and it was these nine people who made the decision not to nominate Ulysses Grant.

According to the scheduled procedure, Hayes and James Bryan still had to give speeches on their election manifesto first, because James Bryan had a lead in the second round of voting, so James Bryan did it first.

It's a pity that James Bryan at this time estimated that his prospects were not good, so the speech was very brief, only a few words were hastily spoken, and it didn't take ten minutes for James Bryan to end his speech.

Hayes was indeed what everyone expected, at least it seemed that way now, as soon as he stood on the podium, cheers, whistles, and applause suddenly rang out, and it lasted for ten minutes, longer than James Bryan's speech just now.

Hayes enjoyed the cheers and applause of the Republican delegates, his eyes glancing at the audience like a torch, and his bearing was indeed very presidential.

Henry Robles looked at Hayes with a smile, not intending to maintain order.

James Bryan's eyes were complicated, and it took a long time to raise his hands and symbolically clap them twice.

The applause and cheers finally stopped, and everyone took their seats.

"Gentlemen..."

Hayes had just said a word, and a tidal wave of applause rang out again.

It's just impossible to talk about it properly.
