By the time it was time for dinner, the atmosphere was even more harmonious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After communicating with Old Man Chen, Yan Shun had stricter requirements when making "hamburgers", and each bread could only be stuffed with two slices of beef, not only for the Chinese, but also for American passengers.

As a result, the meal times became more orderly and the order of meals changed, first the children, then the women, and finally the men.

Everyone is happy to see such a change, especially the old man Chen, this old man of Hanlin actually identified this change as a "work of education", which is really a bit brazen.

Just as Li Mu and the others were taking the train all the way east, the news of the young child's arrival in the United States was continuing to ferment.

On September 12th, the toddler arrived in San Francisco, and on September 13th, almost all the newspapers in the United States reported the news, and there was no fax machine in those days, so only the local newspapers in San Francisco had picture information, using the photo of Li Mu opening his arms to embrace the sun at the bow of the boat, which will be reprinted by all newspapers and magazines in the United States in the next few weeks.

Newspapers in Connecticut and Massachusetts were the most enthusiastic in the September 13 report, as these two states are destinations for young children who will live and study in both states.

In the September 13 issue, all the newspapers in Connecticut and Massachusetts reported the arrival of young children in bold on the front page, including basic information about the children's names, genders, ages, etc., which aroused the interest of almost everyone in Connecticut and Massachusetts.

Relatively speaking, people in New England are still relatively well educated, especially Connecticut and Massachusetts, which have the largest middle class in the United States, and have the habit of subscribing to newspapers and magazines on weekdays, so the news of the arrival of young children in the United States has attracted everyone's attention.

The Qing government did take great pains to ensure that the young children could get a better education, and Rong Hong, the deputy superintendent of the Overseas Migrant Workers Bureau, had already arrived in the United States to identify sojourn families for the children and find language schools.

It is not difficult to find a sojourn family, partly due to the large number of middle-class families in Connecticut and Massachusetts, and partly due to the subsidies provided by the Qing government.

The Qing government's decision to allow young children to live in American families was not free of charge, and the need to pay for the living expenses of these young children largely attracted the attention of Connectibians and Massachusettians.

It's not a problem to have more money and less money, they are all middle-class families, and they don't care much about it, the key is this qualification.

Rong Hong is still relatively "treacherous", openly declaring in the newspaper that only real gentleman families can be qualified for selection, so this qualification has become a strange commodity.

What's what? The Johnson family next door is eligible and ours is not?

Doesn't that mean that our family is not a gentleman enough?

No, no, Johnson is a businessman, and his pets are full of copper stench, so I, an engineer, are more qualified to be selected.

Since September 13, Yung's office in Springfield has been kicked out by middle-class people in Connecticut and Massachusetts, many of whom are trying to break their heads in the name of having a "sojourn".

In just two days, all thirty children were divided, and everyone, including Li Mu and Little Fat Man, found a sojourn family.

On September 15, Li Mu shot and killed Jesse James on the train, and at noon that day, the news spread throughout the United States along the telegraph line, and on the following 16th, the front pages of all American newspapers were occupied by the names Li Mu and Jesse James.

The notorious Jesse James finally deserved it, and a Qing Empire kid named Li Mu shot and killed him, which was almost like "folklore", and the news instantly detonated all the headlines, and even the news was reported in Britain across the ocean.

The front page of the New York Times headlined: "The criminal has been punished, a child has ended him."

The headline in the Washington Post reads: "Justice is upheld by one child, and our government should be ashamed of it!" ”

Of all the reports, the Hartford Evening News in Connecticut's capital had the most chilling headline: "A Vicious Guy Than Jesse James Is Coming, Should We Have Flowers for Him or a Prettier Pistol?" ”

More vicious than Jesse James-

That sounds like it!

That night, Yung Hong's office welcomed a special guest.

"Yung, I've got a big problem, and I have to come to you—" The guest got straight to the point as soon as he entered.

"Mr. Jones, there is no accurate information on this matter yet, so we need to verify it further, and believe me, that kid is definitely not a problem, and it may or may not be a mistake." Rong Hong also had a headache, but he still tried to appease Jones.

Jones is an architect in Springfield, and just the day before yesterday, Jones's family had just been identified as Li Mu's foster family, and the news that had been a source of joy for the Jones family had now become a problem for Jones, and Jones was deeply concerned when it was determined that the newspaper that the Li Mu who shot and killed Jesse James was the one who lived in his home.

Jones has three children in the family, the eldest child is in high school, and the two younger ones are in junior high school, about the same age as Li Mu, Jones is very worried that such a very "aggressive" little guy living in his own home will have a bad impact on his children, so Jones came to Rong Hong to discuss the replacement of candidates.

"No, no, no, I have accurate information, and you may not be mistaken, you may not know that Mr. Hunter of the Kansas State Bank has arrived in Springfield, and he will give that little fellow a bounty for the killing of Jesse James, and if it weren't for the exact news, Mr. Huntle would never have come, you should know, that's a lot of money." Jones took a bite to say, the expression on his face a little envious.

It is indeed something that should be envied, this morning's newspaper listed in detail the bounty on Jesse James, there are a total of seventeen rewards, except for six personal bounties that are relatively small, the others are more than 1,000 US dollars, the largest is the Bank of Kansas for Jesse James, which is 15,000 US dollars.

Jones, as a well-known architect in Springfield, did not have $15,000 in savings at home, so when the total number was calculated, Jones was really shocked.

That's a huge sum totaling more than $45,000.
