155 Armada
The Springfield Police Department is still very large, Welsh Street is a bustling area of Springfield, there are many government agencies in the vicinity, as well as large enterprises such as the Springfield Arsenal, and the limited number of homes are single-family houses, at least a middle-class person is eligible to live here.

Will originally didn't own a property in Springfield, but when he became the Springfield Police Commissioner, the benefits began to roll in, including a property that Rowan Houston "sold" to Will, located on Welsh Street, next to the police station.
Rowan Houston was the president of the Springfield Hotel Association, and the famous Celtic Hotel was Rowan Houston's property, and such a man must have made a big deal, a castle-like building with more than 40 houses on three floors, including lawns and gardens, covering more than 1.6 acres, about ten acres, and only costing Will a meagre $1,000.
A thousand dollars, this price is not enough to build a house like this in Riverside Town, let alone a prosperous place like Welsh Street, a lot like Welsh Street, just the land has to be thousands larger.
Although it was paid, Will had no intention of moving in, so it became a temporary settlement for Will and Li Mu, and sometimes Henry traveled back and forth between New York and Springfield, and stayed here at night when he didn't have time to get back to the factory.
Li Mu is indeed a chicken thief, Will became the chief of the Springfield Police Department, and the threat alarm from George was naturally quickly lifted, and it is said that Henry's family can return to live in Riverside Town, but because Li Mu appointed Mrs. Henry as the principal of the school affiliated to the Horse Company, Henry's family stayed in the factory.
Lao Yan and Yan's mother returned to Riverside Town, Lao Yan's work content is not much, mainly a meaning of existence, Yan's mother is even more worried about the vegetable field next to the house and Lao Yan's hard work, although it has not yet been produced because of the cold weather, but it is obvious that Lao Yan and Yan's mother have high hopes for that land.
In mid-January, two Spaniards from Cuba approached Li Mu.
"Mr. Ream, this is Mr. Thomas Partridge, the special envoy of General Willis Nikolau—" It was Ryan Matthew who brought Partridge to Lee, and Ryan introduced only one person, and it seemed that the other was Partridge's entourage, and it was not worth wasting his tongue.
Li Mu is also a small strength in Springfield, and Ryan Matthew has just sent someone to report to Li Mu that the purpose of Partridge's trip is to discuss the transaction between Li Mu and the Republic of Cuba.
Although the United States nominally recognized the Republic of Cuba, in reality Cuba was still under Spanish rule, and the reason why the United States Government did not deal directly with the Republic of Cuba, but limited the transaction to a private sphere, was to avoid international disputes arising therefrom.
From this point of view, the hundreds of thousands of dollars are not easy to earn, at least this black cauldron is what Li Mu must carry.
Li Mu did not shirk, since he served other people's jobs, he had to serve others, and when he signed an order with Santos in the Rifle Association, Li Mu had this awareness.
Perhaps it was Li Mu's yellow skin and black hair that gave Partridge an illusion, and Partridge was aggressive as soon as he came up, and he was very excited to ask the guilt: "Mr. Ream, your transaction with the Cuban rebels has seriously endangered the interests of the Spanish Kingdom, you must stop your illegal acts, interrupt the transaction with the Cuban rebels, and compensate our Spanish Kingdom, otherwise our Spanish Kingdom will definitely be investigated to the end!" ”
Listening to the last issue, it was really righteous words, but Li Mu just wanted to laugh out loud.
After listening to Partridge's words, Li Mu sat behind the desk and played with the pen in his hand with great interest, without looking at Partridge.
It's really a fountain pen, Li Mu originally thought that there was no fountain pen this year, but he didn't expect that there was already a fountain pen that was close to a mature form.
It's just close, and the exterior is more similar, but the internal structure is very different.
Strictly speaking, the fountain pen of this year is a "water storage pen", the ink of this pen can not flow freely, and the piston must be pressed first when used, and then the ink begins to flow, and then it must be pressed after writing for a while, otherwise the ink will not flow out, and it is very inconvenient to use.
The good news is that the design of the fountain nib has been quite mature, and the fountain nib has undergone special processing, which is sleek and elastic, and the writing is quite smooth, which makes Li Mu have the idea of a new "invention".
You only need to change the water storage structure, get an ink tube into the pen, you can solve the problem of "water storage" very well, which is not a problem under the technical conditions at this time, no artificial rubber can use natural rubber, considering the amount of fountain pen use, this is also a big business -
"Start now" is Li Mu's creed, so as soon as this idea burst out, Li Mu began to write and draw in the notebook.
This is a bit rude, people Partridge has already come to the door to ask the guilt, and you are still turning a blind eye here, it is really uncle can bear aunt can not bear it-
Feeling Li Mu's rudeness, Partridge's face turned red almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It's not because of shyness, it's because of anger.
"Mr. Reem—what the hell are you doing?" Partridge couldn't sit still, he stood up with his hands on the table, his body leaning forward was full of oppression, and his voice was chilling.
Li Mu still didn't look up, Yan Shun, who was leaning on the wall near the desk and watching the excitement, was alert, and quietly approached Li Mu's side with a holster; Mason, who was sitting on the shoe cabinet at the door, also moved, and saw Mason greet people, so William and two other big men entered the room, and several people quietly blocked Partridge's back road from behind.
"Mr. Partridge—what do you mean you're coming to me? Let me interrupt the normal transaction with my client, and then compensate your Kingdom of Spain for the losses of your Kingdom of Spain, will your Kingdom of Spain sail your Armada to the outer harbor of New York if I do not agree? Do you think this is the Qing Empire? Please figure it out before you speak-" Li Mu didn't take this self-righteous Spanish envoy to heart at all, what happened to the Chinese? Chinese can be bullied casually?
Sooner or later, you red-haired devils will have to pay!
"Hahahaha--then we have to get the Armada out of the Mediterranean first-" Ryan Matthew unscrupulously mended.
The Invincible Armada - everyone knows that it is a thing of the past, and Li Mu is deliberately bringing it up now in order to humiliate the Spaniards.
What the hell, it's obviously a country that has declined, and it only relies on colonial blood transfusions to survive, and it really takes itself seriously, right?
