In early May, the upsurge of the acquisitions of New York and Hudson River Railroad Company finally came to an end. United Pacific Railroad Company and North Pacific Railroad Company failed to do so. Grace Vanderbilt successfully maintained the core family industry, but to this end The price paid was more than 20 million US dollars. The Vanderbilt family suffered great vitality after this battle, and they lost the glory of Cornelius Vanderbilt when he was alive.

It is already lucky to keep the family's core industry. At least this way, the Vanderbilt family may have a chance to make a comeback, and Grace Vanderbilt shows that he is completely different from Paul Vanderbilt. Bilt's toughness, although the Vanderbilt family became the talk of New Yorkers during this time, at least it did not become a joke. From this point, Grace Vanderbilt is really amazing.

What's even more remarkable is that in mid-April, Grace successfully squeezed her two sisters out of the board of directors of the New York and Hudson River Railroad Company, thereby taking over the power and becoming the de facto speaker of the Vanderbilt family. It was a shocking eyeball. People had never thought that women could be so strong, and Grace became an idol for Gloria.

In fact, Gloria is not worse than Grace. When she first founded the "Metropolis" newspaper, Gloria also showed a lot of momentum, but in the habitual sense, people are more willing to attribute the success of "Metropolis". Supported by Li Mu behind the scenes, Gloria is just a mascot in front of the stage and is not valued by people.

Grace is not the same. The Vanderbilt family was sacked in succession. Grace lost his father and two brothers in a few weeks. Grace can be regarded as being in danger, and he will turn the tide to the downside and help the building. Leaning, even with someone else, can't be better than Grace.

Li Mu did not have time to pay attention to the changing stock market. Although Henry still organized a team and made a lot of money with the dividends of the stock market, this has nothing to do with Li Mu. Li Mu has stayed at the Governor's Island since early April and has not left. Waiting wholeheartedly for your first child.

According to previous estimates, Chu Xue's due date is at the end of April. As early as March, the medical team prepared a delivery room on the Governor's Island. Two doctors and four nurses stood by 24 hours to resolutely prevent any accidents.

There was still an accident. From the end of April to the beginning of May, Li Mu's long-awaited due date had not arrived.

"There is no problem with Chu Xue's body, and the child's condition is also normal. Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, anyway, in these days, from now on, you have to learn to be patient." Dr. Betty checked the body for Chu Xue again in early May Everything works fine without any problems.

Bringing a child really requires patience. Li Mu has always thought that he is not lacking in patience, but from the perspective of Dr. Betty, it is clear that Li Mu is not mature enough, which can be seen from Li Mu's request that Dr. Betty check his body for Chu Xue every day.

"Be assured, Betty, I have prepared everything, and I will definitely be a qualified father." Li Muxin vowed that he would never let his tragedy repeat itself in his children.

"I believe you will." Chu Xue, who has a big belly, still trusts Li Mu. In the eyes of Chu Xue, Li Mu is an omnipotent superman, although this concept may not yet exist.

"Let's go, I'll accompany you for a walk—" Li Mu was very considerate to help Chuxue come downstairs. In order to ensure good health, Chuxue insists on activities every day. At this time, Li Mu usually stays with Chuxue.

"Hmm--" Chu Xue smiled sweetly. Since she became pregnant, Chu Xue seems to have changed her personality. Sometimes, from time to time, she can occasionally find out that it was a habit to keep a girl, and now Chu Xue has completely entered the new mother. Role, more confident, more focused, Li Mu called this change: the glory of motherly love.

Walking on the path in the garden, I can hear the sound of wooden fish from the backyard Buddhist temple. This is Yan mother praying for her child again. Since Chu Xue became pregnant, Yan mother has to read the "Da Bei Guan Yin Yin Mantra" many times every day. 》, Never stop every day, morning, night and evening.

As long as it is related to the child, Li Mu strongly supports it. For this reason, Li Mu even built a small Buddhist temple in the backyard. As a result, this small Buddhist temple became the spiritual sustenance of the strict mother. Also became a half Buddhist.

The reason why it is called "half" is because the other "half" Li Mu belongs to the Catholic Church. If necessary, Li Mu can split himself into more, anyway-knowing God.

"The Indiana state sent me a few bags of mushrooms the day before yesterday. They were picked by the farmer over there and said that they would make up your body, but they were not preserved. Some mushrooms were rotten when they were delivered. I said this group of guys are stupid, it ’s better to send some potatoes grown on the farm, at least potatoes from Indiana will not be bad. ”Li Mu picked some easy things to chat with Chu Xue. For pregnant women, the healthy psychological condition is also Very important.

"Indiana-Ah, you mean, those farmers who bought land from our group, how are they now?" Chu Xue was curious. Those farmers were Chinese. Li Mu once stressed the importance of the farm more than once. Sex.

"It's pretty good. They've been more than two years since the earliest. Of course they will suffer a bit at the beginning. After all, those lands need to be reclaimed. This stage is expected to last a long time, but when some land is reclaimed, their good days Here, you must know that each family owns an average of 600 acres of land. Can this be regarded as a landlord class in Qing Dynasty? "Li Mu didn't know much about Qing Dynasty, but compared to the 21st century, holding 600 acres of land in his hands is definitely Can be called "landlord".

"600 acres! Really a lot, but are they finished planting?" Although Chuxue has not planted the land, it is still a bit conceptual for how large the 600 acres are. The Qing Dynasty ’s mellow palace is about 60 acres, that is, ten As big as the King Palace, in Qing Dynasty, planting 600 acres of land requires at least 30 people.

"We have a bank that can provide farmers with low-interest or interest-free loans. Farmers can use the loans to buy livestock. It is said that there are now at least two cattle, a horse, and a group of sheep in each house. To be honest That is my ideal life. "Li Muyan was indifferent. It should be said that it was not Li Mu's ideal, but Chu Xue's ideal. Unfortunately, it is estimated that this ideal cannot be achieved in this life.

The Chinese people ’s thirst for land is surprising. Perhaps it was because they were scared during the Qing Dynasty. Those farmers came to Illinois and Indiana, put their luggage down, and turned to wasteland. The highest record is one person for three consecutive days. Twelve acres of wasteland were reclaimed without sleep, and the guy who was almost alive and exhausted was sent directly to the hospital.

The Steed Group first published the incident in a supplement to Time Magazine. Such a representative event is not common.

Since then, the Steed Group has printed many booklets, listing the precautions in the wasteland, overtime work is explicitly prohibited, and then distributed the booklets to those farmers who are about to travel to Illinois and Indiana. That's all Li Mu can do for them.

It ’s enough. Now Governor ’s Island receives small gifts from Indiana and Illinois almost every month. Sometimes it ’s a piece of beef with strong sauce, sometimes it ’s just picked mushrooms, and even once, an Indiana Of the farmer's trustee gave Li Mu a live chicken, and noted that this was the first batch of chickens produced by the Marcus chicken farm, and Marcus hoped to give the chicken to Li Mu.

In fact, if it was not because of the long distance and the wasteland time was delayed, Marcus would like to express his gratitude to Li Mu.

Before coming to the United States, Marcus was a descendant of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom that was sold to South America as a piglet. Marcus' ancestors lived a life of death in the plantation. It was the appearance of Li Mu and the Steed Group that changed this. Everything, Marcus received Marcus along with his family in the United States. After working for Marcus for two years, Marcus purchased 150 acres of land in Indiana. Now, Marcus started to raise chickens. field.

As a simple comparison to life in South America, Marcus now feels like he lives in heaven.

And all this comes from Li Mu's generosity, so Marcus hopes that Li Mu can share the happiness of the harvest.

It ’s really fun. Good people have good rewards. The price of a chicken does not exceed $ 1.2, but Li Mu ’s gift in addition to a set of silver tableware, as well as the latest model shotgun produced by Chuntian Arsenal, in the central region For life, without a gun is tantamount to death.

Cutlery and shotguns are worth more than $ 100, but Li Mu thinks he hasn't lost money, and it is more important to gain respect.

"You finally did a good deed." Chu Xue was very satisfied with Li Mu's arrangements. There are houses and fields, and his wife and children are gimmicks. This is the Chinese ideal.

"Don't I have done good things before?" Li Mu was black-faced, of course it was pretended, and there was no deterrent to Chu Xue.

"Yes, you have done a lot of good things, but they are not as great as this one." Chu Xue has his own criteria.

"Sister Xuexue, would you like to take a break?" Sandy led Pan bouncing up, and in the distance Gloria was feeding fish with bread crumbs in the heart of the lake.

Unlike Chu Xue, who insisted on working after pregnancy, Gloria after pregnancy offered herself as porcelain from the Qing Dynasty. Every day, except for sleeping, she ate, and the whole person gained weight at a rate visible to the naked eye.

This shows that Gloria has a good health background. Chu Xue spit out when she first became pregnant. Gloria is just like nothing all day long. There is no such thing as vomiting.

"Pan, stay away from me." Although Li Mu kept reminding Pan of his health status, Chu Xue still felt fear in her heart. You should know that Pan was originally fed by Chu Xue.

"Relax, Chu Xue, no problem." Gloria also greeted Chu Xue to sit over.

"Let's go, you just can exchange your pregnancy experience-" Li Mu helped Chu Xue to walk towards Hu Xinting, Sandy followed Li Mu's body, his big eyes flickered astonishingly.

"Sometimes you want to put some tropical fish in. The grey carp is ugly." Gloria rubbed the bread carelessly, and the bread crumbs fell from the fingers to the water, each of which attracted several fish to compete. .

"It's delicious. You haven't eaten sweet and sour carp. How do you feel?" Li Mu didn't want to put tropical fish in. How good the carp is, it can be eaten, and it can also change the ecological environment. In the last life, American carp became a disaster. With so many Chinese people, it is estimated that the little carp would have a hard time turning over, and it would be very face-saving without giving you extinction.

"It's delicious, um, shall we eat fish at noon?" Chu Xue began to drool immediately. After all, it was consumed by two people, and it was normal to be hungry.

"No problem." Li Mu promised quickly. Anyway, there is a chef on the Governor's Island, and he is also a Chinese chef. Li Mu does not need to cook in person.

"Lily, you have to pay attention to maintaining your body shape. Now you look fatter than me." Chu Xue and Sister Gloria have a good relationship. They usually get along with the same family, with a similar mocking tone, which can only be regarded as Ridicule.

"Fater than you? Hahahaha-do you want to laugh at me?" Gloria glanced at Chuxue, the envy in her eyes flashed.

Although the children in Gloria and Chu Xuedu are both Li Mu, the first child will definitely be more favored, which is very obvious in Will's family.

Speaking of this, in fact, Gloria's heart is full of regrets, of course, it would be perfect if Gloria was pregnant first.

"Am I fat?" Chu Xue couldn't help but smile, looking at Gloria, who was almost rolling on the ground, and looking down at her belly-well, it was a bit fat, and I could no longer see my toes. .

"Well, you can't laugh now." Li Mu reminded Chu Xue that pregnant women should avoid emotional excitement. It is not good to be too happy or too sad.

Chu Xue still lowered her head and did not respond to Li Mu.

Li Mu didn't feel right. Looking at Chuxue again, sweat had leaked from his forehead.

"Sister Chu Xue, what's wrong with you?" Sandy noticed Chu Xue's abnormality, and came to hold Chu Xue's other arm.

"Doctor--" Li Mu immediately called for help.

For a moment, doctors and nurses in white coats whistled with a flatbed cart. They stayed nearby and were always ready. This was their only job.

"Sister, what's wrong with Chu Xue?" Sandy looked at Chu Xue being pushed away, her voice trembling a little.

Gloria didn't answer, her lips clenched, and there was a hint of envy and gloom in her eyes, but in a moment Gloria turned back, pulling Sandy with her skirt, and following her, her movements were very healthy: Let's hurry, Chu Xue will be born— "

That said--

It's also a pun.
