.' 0����dT��ԩ� >��; E b 6* bN S * Ulysses Grant's lineage, this is well known, so it is obvious that Arthur has a bad future if Hays, who hates nepotism, comes to power.

Of course, this "bad prospect" is not absolute, and if Arthur has made a great contribution to Hayes winning the election, then Hayes will not be wiped out at that time.

The position of politicians is like this, many times the so-called "justice" is just a fig leaf to disguise the true purpose, and if you are serious, you lose.

"All the official positions... Even if I wanted to be secretary of state, would Hayes agree? Arthur was still a little reserved, or rather, Arthur wanted a positive promise.

"Maybe, maybe not, I can't give you that promise, if you want, you can talk to Mr. Governor personally." Li Mucai will not set himself on fire, and he is already worthy of Hayes if he can match the bridge from the middle.

"Tomorrow night, no, the night after tomorrow, the night after tomorrow I hope to talk to Mr. Governor." Arthur also knew that this kind of thing was probably going to be struck by lightning, so he had to get enough benefits.

In fact, the position of politicians is really worthless, and having a milk is a true portrayal of a politician, not to mention a temporary change of support, if necessary, it is no problem to quit the Republican Party and join the Democratic Party.

So Arthur changed his court, and there really wasn't any psychological pressure.

"Don't worry, I'll arrange it for you." Li Mu nodded, feeling like a pimp.

Well, this adjective is a bit too bad in nature, it should be said that it is like "matchmaker".

It still doesn't feel good...

Li Mu arranged for Arthur and Hayes to meet in the main pavilion of the Independence Centennial Exhibition, which has been capped, and meeting here will not only not give people a handle, but also fully demonstrate Arthur's strength as the mayor of New York, which is really the most intimate.

Li Mu was not present when Arthur and Hayes met, and I don't know what Arthur and Hayes talked about, but judging from the expressions of the two after the meeting, the result should be quite optimistic.

Getting Arthur is considered to have cut off James Bryan's arm, don't underestimate the position of mayor of New York, as the manager of the largest city in the United States, Arthur's choice can affect the choice of a large number of Republican Party representatives, in a sense, Arthur now has a stronger influence in the Republican Party than Li Mu.

This is really not a deliberate attempt to elevate the importance of Arthur, you must know that Arthur is an American through and through, and he is also a white American, and he is born with a stronger affinity than Li Mu, don't look at Li Mu's omnipotence in New York, out of New York, there are really quite a few people who don't know what Li Mu does, and even some people will be hostile to Li Mu because of Li Mu's skin color, which is an unavoidable fact.

November 10th, the third round of voting.

Voting will take place at 6 p.m., and from 8 a.m., Castle Clinton will begin its final sprint.

Almost every candidate has a campaign office, and Hayes is no exception, and his office was originally located at 197 Park Road, but after Li Mu joined the Hayes campaign, Clinton Castle began to become the home base of Hays.

"Mr. Garfield has not yet made a final decision, and based on the intelligence analysis we have now, there is a high probability that those representatives who supported James Garfield before will fall in favor of James Bryan, and if that happens, we will most likely lose." On the third-floor balcony, Benjamin Harrison gives an update.

It's really tricky, although James Garfield is out, his decision may actually be the winner or loser in the final result.

Li Mu has been in contact with James Garfield since a week ago, but this guy has an ambiguous attitude, is still waiting for the price to sell, and has not decided which side to turn to.

Speaking of Hayes is really "upright" and "upright" in defeat, the "integrity" label on Hayes has won him the support of voters to the greatest extent, but it has also brought a lot of trouble to Hays, especially in the search for allies, few people are willing to come to power, so Hayes can only keep promises, and in this way, the "integrity" label on Hayes is gradually losing its meaning.

As long as you can become president, even if you are labeled "evil", it is worth it, and the so-called "integrity" is left to the voters to be happy.

"Call him again and tell him: Yes!" Hayes smiled wryly and decided to compromise again.

It's a good thing to compromise, but there are big hidden dangers, and if you're not careful, you will become a habit.

When Li Mu first went to meet James Garfield, James Garfield made a request, not only asking for the post of Secretary of Treasury in the new government, but also asking for a special grant for his hometown to improve the road network in James Garfield's hometown.

There is no problem with giving money, no matter how much it is given, as long as the treasury is not emptied, Li Mu can agree instead of Hayes.

But the position of Minister of Finance is too important, Li Mu does not dare and does not want to agree to this request.

To be honest, if possible, Li Mu still wants to be the Minister of Finance.

If Li Mu becomes the U.S. Treasury Secretary, then one of the things he will do after taking office is to promote the U.S. government to purchase buses in large quantities...

On this issue, Hayes and Li Mu agreed on the same issue, so James Garfield has never gotten the promise he wanted, and the issue has been delayed until today.

If Hayes can't beat James Bryan, then Hayes' insistence now won't be worthless.

"Suddenly I feel that I have been sold cheaply..."Li Mu couldn't help but say strange things, compared with what James Garfield got, Li Mu got a little less.

"Come on, Reem, you'll be compensated later." Hayes is not in a hurry, if you want to return the favor, there will be more opportunities in the future.

Even if he can't be the secretary of finance, Li Mu is confident that he will push the US government to purchase buses in large quantities, and the New York City government has just placed an order for 100 buses to the horse automobile company, and when the New York City government uses the buses, then other cities will immediately hear the news, even if other governments do not have the same financial resources as the New York City government, 30 or 50 cars can still afford to buy.

At noon, Hayes and James Garfield held a press conference at Castle Clinton.

"Mr. Hayes, are you confident that you will win this presidential election?"

"Mr. Hayes, if you succeed in being elected president, will you still stand up against corruption?"

"Mr. Hayes, if you are elected, will you pursue the economic legacy of the previous administration?"

As soon as Hayes appeared, the press conference scene was immediately chaotic.

No one asked James Garfield about his political leanings, and James Garfield's attendance at the press conference with Hayes has said a lot, and the reporters are quite politically conscious, and no one will waste precious questions on questions that have already been determined.

"Gentlemen, please come one by one..."Li Mu acted as the host of the press conference, which is called the standard "platform".

Although Li Mu's voice was not loud, the press conference scene immediately quieted down, many reporters present were from the "Time Magazine" series, and the reporters knew Li Mu's identity, and no one dared not listen to Li Mu, the big boss.

Li Mu gave the first opportunity to ask questions to the reporter of Time Magazine.

"Thank you, Mr. Ream..."Time Chief Reporter Mike Brown first thanked him politely before asking James Garfield: "May I ask Mr. James Garfield, have you already decided that you will support Mr. Hayes in the next election?" ”

Well, that's the kind of question that fits the topic, the presidential race is next year, and it's a battle between the candidates, and this battle hasn't been won yet, so it's a bit too early to say what Hayes will do when he is elected.

"Yes, I have decided to fully support Mr. Hayes in the next election..."James Garfield's smile is both mature and charming, this guy must have practiced in front of the mirror, otherwise it would not be so infectious: "As we all know, Mr. Hayes has a noble character, and his integrity is worthy of all of us to praise, which is precisely what we lack the most, in the competition with the Democrats, we have lost the House of Representatives, and we have lost the Southern state that countless people have won by life and death, We've even lost a state like New York with a key influence, and we can't retreat, so I'm not going to stand together, and that's the only way we can win the race, and we have the chance to prove our Republican Party again in front of the people..."

James Garfield spoke for ten minutes with a large set of hats, and while putting on countless high hats for Hayes, he also flaunted himself in passing.

The second problem belongs to the New York Journal, a newspaper wholly owned by the ZAMA Group, which, unlike Time magazine, which focuses on the big picture, is more focused on business and is a powerful complement to Time Magazine.

With more and more newspapers under his control, Li Mu is already considering setting up a media company in order to guide public opinion more effectively.

The main reason why this plan has not yet been put into practice lies in whether the "industry access system" can be passed, and if the "industry access system" can be implemented smoothly, then this plan can be appropriately postponed.

The New York Times reporter is Katie Maxwell, who, like Gloria, is also a female reporter.

"Mr. Hayes, I noticed that you've been emphasizing change, does that mean you're unhappy with the current administration, we all know that the Republican Party's approval ratings are slipping, and as a Republican, I'm also worried, and now there's a lot of rumors involving the Republican Party's top brass, what do you think about that? If you succeed in getting elected, will you thoroughly investigate these rumors? Katie's question is more poignant, but it doesn't digress, and building momentum for Hayes is also the main task of the Time Magazine department.

This question is difficult to answer, many rumors are aimed at the current President Ulysses Grant, or the first lady of the United States, if Hayes says that he will investigate thoroughly, then it means that the Republican Party is at odds at the top, and will cast a shadow on the next duel with the Democratic Party, and if it is not investigated, then Hayes's "fairness and justice" will become a castle in the air.

Li Mu was also a little caught off guard by this question, Li Mu couldn't help but be furious, Li Mu decided to wait for the press conference to end, and then send someone to check Katie's old bottom, this guy may be an undercover agent from the Democratic Party.

"If those rumors are true, then I'll definitely find out." Hayes reacted quickly and showed no compromise: "The problem is that many rumors are purely groundless, that is that some people deliberately poured sewage on us, although they seem to have succeeded, but I want to say that those conspiracy villains who will only put cold guns in the back will never come to the forefront, time will eventually prove that justice will eventually triumph over evil, so what we have to do now is to strengthen our beliefs, don't be provoked by those guys with evil intentions, we in the United States are on the right path, as long as we keep our eyes open, Then we will not be confused! ”

Hayes is indeed very smart, and this hand transfer is very beautiful, and it is no wonder that someone can become president.

"Mr. Hayes, are you confident of winning the next third election? As far as I know, you have a strong opponent, you have a lot of supporters in the party, and the results of the last two elections show that the delegates don't trust you very much, how are you going to break the deadlock? "The third opportunity also belongs to Mike Brown of Time Magazine, Li Mu doesn't want to see any accidents, so let's be arbitrary, no one dares to bring it up anyway.

"I have the confidence to beat anyone! This confidence is not based on arrogance, but on the trust that the voters give me, as for whether Mr. James Bryan is strong or not, this is obvious to all, I believe that Mr. James Bryan is also deeply trusted by the voters, so no matter who wins or loses in the third election, the final winner will be the Republicans, this will be a victory for all our voters, whether the voters hand over the power to me or Mr. James Bryan, we will serve the voters wholeheartedly, Leading America Forward... God bless us! Hayes's answer is always encouraging, and whatever the future holds, at least for this moment, the reporters at the press conference thought Hayes was on the cards.

As he walked out of the press conference hall, Hayes was still a little proud: "How did I do today?" ”

"Yay!" Li Mu stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up, even if it was replaced by Li Mu answering in person, the effect was estimated to be no better.

Everything is ready only to the east wind, time passed little by little, at four o'clock, Li Mu and Hayes left Clinton Castle and went to New York City Hall together.
