After Li Mo returned to New York with a cold face, he locked himself in his room, sat quietly at his desk, and his hand holding the pen was subconsciously sketching something on the white paper, but his thoughts could not be still.

From the discovery of gold to the extraction of oil, from the training of new troops to the intervention in the Chilean civil war, from the enclosure of land to the Chilean copper mines. He has not been in this world for three years, and sometimes he even thinks that he can complete the whole idea by relying only on his prophetic ability, but when Mahan and Roosevelt appeared in front of him, he realized that he was wrong, not only wrong, but also very wrong!

Yes, he has too many abilities than others, but with his arrival, some events and history are also slowly shifting, just like this acquisition in his own name, which made Roosevelt suddenly vigilant, and more importantly, it can be seen from the accompanying Mahan that Roosevelt has a large number of like-minded people within the U.S. Navy, once this force affects the current U.S. Navy, let them be alert, so that their eyes shift to the Pacific Ocean, even if they are rich and rival countries, Nor can it be compared to the huge national power.

Li Mo is extremely remorseful now, just because this passage is too smooth, intervening in the Chilean Civil War, gaining the friendship of Monte and Simmons, forming the coveted navy, digging up treasures worth hundreds of millions of pounds, and successfully robbing the super-rich in the United States, which made him relax his vigilance, knowing the power of the Chinese Exclusion Act, and being stupid enough to use it to carry out acquisitions in his own name, which was sniffed by Roosevelt and Mahan, if he continued to hide behind Thomas, then ...... now?

Regret medicine Li Mo didn't know, he only knew that he could not travel back to the years before the acquisition of the shipyard, Roosevelt's appearance made him nervous and scared, especially when the threatening words came out, he trembled like someone poured a basin of ice water on the cold winter wax moon.

This feeling of two heavens from scorching heat to freezing point made his mind suddenly become a little confused, and from Roosevelt's eyes, he could already feel the other party's suspicion and the idea of stifling himself.

Assassinate him? If necessary, Roosevelt would definitely do that, but that would also be before he could obtain enough evidence, although he showed some of his power in Hawaii, but it was all economic, just because of an expanding shipyard, I believe that Roosevelt could not pry the United States [***] side, and immediately attack Hawaii.

Fortunately, it will take a few years for Roosevelt to become the deputy secretary of the navy, and although he is barely a political celebrity now, he can't give orders to the army yet, otherwise this guy would have ordered the navy to go to Hawaii, and it would be his turn to do this and that here!

"But after all, he is a high-ranking political official, what if?" Li Mo bit the tip of his pen, and the corner of his eye swept to the cigar he had snatched from Thomas!

"Cuba!"

Li Mo bit the tip of his nose, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and the corners of his mouth jerked upward.

"Someone."

Li Enfu looked at the aisle and sighed softly. Originally, he was going to go to the Canadian camp with Zhang Shun to have a look, but now he had to put it on hold for the time being.

In the empty aisle, Du Dazhuang stood alone in front of the gate, since Li Mo came back from Portland a few days ago, he had never left this door, and this loyal man had never left half a step.

He asked Du Dazhuang, but unfortunately the simple big man didn't know what was going on, he only knew that when the young master entered the house to talk to the owner about the acquisition, two people suddenly came, and soon after the young master walked out with the check, and tore the check for 100,000 US dollars into pieces in front of him, and then without saying a word, he took the train back here.

The only thing that is certain is that one of the two people who went in was a beauty [***] official.

It is not a big deal for an officer to appear in a shipyard, and now the United States has shown signs of expanding its navy, and it is said that orders for a new ironclad battleship have been sent to the shipyards, and almost all the remaining major shipyards have military orders. The crux of the matter is that after the officer entered, the young master came out, and he tore up a deposit check for a full 100,000 US dollars!

Li Enfu is not Du Dazhuang, he doesn't have the perseverance to guard the door for a few days, but now he is a member of this team, the more he understands, the more shock he feels in his heart, just the auction some time ago, he almost didn't go into shock.

The more shocked, the more he wanted to integrate into the team as soon as possible, he didn't care what others called Li Mo, maybe in the eyes of outsiders, the word "young master" still has a feudal connotation and the "master, slave" in the Qing Dynasty at this moment. It's the same as that, but after seeing all the blood, tears and bitterness of the Chinese, he would rather choose the "young master" than the Ming Cook that the Great Powers are prepared to impose, which is also the difference between him and those reformers.

He is not a royalist reformer like Li Hongzhang, if he has a choice, he will kick away the emperor who is still high up in the sky without hesitation. But he is not a radical reformist who only knows slogans that are quietly spreading among overseas Chinese today, he is more like walking in the middle on a tightrope, he prefers to be direct and more pragmatic.

That's why he chose Li Mo, a young master who doesn't like to shout slogans, but has already begun to act silently. But now, this young man who gave him hope and let him see the bright future of overseas Chinese, but for some reason locked himself in the house for several days, which is tantamount to putting himself on the fire to suffer for him who is eager to understand the inside story and find his job as soon as possible.

"Sir, young master, he."

Zhang Shun's voice came from Li Enfu's ears, originally this man should have returned to the legendary camp, but after seeing Li Mo come back with an expressionless face, he immediately realized that something was wrong, so he stayed and silently held on with Du Dazhuang.

Li Enfu shook his head, sometimes he didn't even understand what kind of charm Li Mo had, which could make people like Zhang Shun and Du Dazhuang die, if Zhang Shun turned out to be his family and could figure it out, Du Dazhuang made him a little confused, especially when he heard that Du Dazhuang gave Li Mo a piece of dog head gold weighing twenty kilograms that he picked up, but it was collected by Li Mo, even after he didn't take it out to exchange it when he needed it most, Li Enfu seemed to have touched something.

"The life was given by the young master, and I want to pay him back." Lee remembered what the big man had said when he was chatting.

"Someone!"

Just as Li Enfu's thoughts spread, suddenly a familiar voice broke the silence in the corridor, Li Enfu only saw Du Dazhuang and Zhang Shun walking like flying, rushing in, and somehow he couldn't control his pace and stepped into the room.

In the room, Li Mo sat quietly at the table, his face slightly pale. On the table, there was a messy pile of white paper, and the top one seemed to be a portrait, but unfortunately it was blocked by Du Dazhuang's straight body, and he couldn't see it very clearly.

"Da Zhuang, go find Thomas and let him come back as soon as possible. Tell him that I don't care what method he uses or how much it costs! Find me a European shipyard immediately and arrange for 3,000 trainee workers! Preferably those shipyards of second-rate countries! ”

"In addition, immediately telegraph to Chen Ping and Yongxiang in England, telling them that no matter how much money is spent, they will bring back 3,000 skilled workers to me within six months, and all those Chinese technicians scattered throughout Europe will also be brought to Hawaii."

"Yes." Du Dazhuang didn't say a word, turned around and walked out.

"Zhang Shun, you go to San Francisco immediately and give this to Duan Fei." Li Mo slowly rolled up Roosevelt's portrait and situation and handed it to Zhang Shun: "Tell him, let him immediately find someone to spy on this guy, and tell him that within a month, I need a comprehensive report on Cuba!" ”

"Yes." Zhang Shun took the scroll, turned his head and left.

With the departure of Zhang Shun and Du Dazhuang, only Li Mo and Li Enfu were left in the room, Li Mo got up and motioned for Li Enfu to sit down, then poured a cup of hot water for himself, and drank it in one gulp: "Sir, do you know Spanish and can rely on friends?" ”

"Spanish? Reliable friends? Thinking of Li Mo's words just now, Li Enfu's eyes widened suddenly.

"Master, you're going to Cuba?"
