Mike was surprised when he received the gift. Mike didn't want to buy such a valuable item himself.
Seeing that Li Mu bought five yuan, Mike was shocked and had a better understanding of Li Mu.
Mike, who can make more money than Mike, sees more, but not so much than Li Mu, who is so generous to the servants around him.
For Mike, Li Mu's behavior only surprised him, but for the old Yantou family, it was not grateful.
While on the boat, Li Mu had described his plan to the Lao Yan family, but that was just talking. Even if Li Mu did not honour his promise, the Lao Yan family did not stand to blame Li Mu.
Deep down, the Lao Yantou family must have imagined the good prospects after Li Mu's fulfillment of his promises, but that is the future. No matter how old the Lao Yantou family could not imagine, Li Mu's redemption would come so fast.
The clothing that Li Mu chose for the three of them was three dollars each, two for each person, plus a pocket watch, and the total price was 114 dollars. If you add the fare from the dock to the Golden State Hotel and open the room Expenses, Li Mu has spent more than 130 dollars on the Yan family, if converted into silver, this is more than one hundred and two.
When it was clear how much money Li Mu had spent, the Yan family felt uneasy again. Although as an employer, Li Mu was responsible for the clothing, food and accommodation of the Yan family, but Li Mu has done far more than an employer should do. This is indeed too unusual.
However, this was not enough. After finding the right clothes for the men, Li Mu took the Yan family to a women's ready-to-wear store and continued to buy clothes for the 10,000-dollar lady.
Compared to men's clothing, women's clothing is much more troublesome. The key is not the style of the clothes, but the attitude of the 10,000-dollar lady.
At this time, the women's clothing had shielded the exaggerated and cumbersome Rococo style, and began to focus on simplicity and gracefulness. Specifically, the exaggerated hip pads and the complicated floral decoration on the back of the skirt were removed, and only the expanded sleeves were retained to set off the slim The waist and smooth curve, the overall effect is upright and dignified and elegant.
Li Mu felt pretty good, but when the snow mothers and daughters saw these long dresses made of silk, the snow mothers and daughters almost refused at the same time. The reason is very simple. Basically, you can't work in this kind of clothes. Already.
This is also the fact that although the trousers and shirts chosen by Li Mu for Yan ’s father and son are quite different from their previous robes and horse robes, they are more convenient to move and more mentally savvy. Therefore, Yan ’s father and son did not have much resistance. Tiger and Yan Shun even accepted Li Mu's arrangement very happily.
The long skirts of the early snow mothers and daughters are different. Although the popular long skirts are quite simple compared to the Rococo-style long skirts, the length must reach the ankles, which is not very convenient.
What's more, there are several days to go on the train, and wearing such a long skirt to take the train is simply a crime.
Fortunately, there are also maid outfits in the ready-to-wear store. Li Mu had to choose two sets of maid outfits for the two mothers and daughters.
Er, don't think about it. It's not the kind of short and exaggerated maid costume in Riman. Although the length does not reach the ankle, it also reaches the calf.
After choosing clothes and matching leather shoes and stockings, Li Mu was finally satisfied.
No, not yet satisfied, Li Mu found another gun shop and bought four pistols at once, and then returned to Jinshan Hotel.
The United States is not very safe these years. The distance from San Francisco to Springfield is nearly 4,000 kilometers. The roads are basically desert wilderness. Often, you must pass through large uninhabited areas. Accidents may occur if you do not allow it. Still be careful.
When returning to the Jinshan Hotel and passing the lobby, the old man was still talking about his "sky, earth, monarch, dear, teacher", and saw Li Mu and others passing through the lobby in a grand and magnificent way. Ignore it.
Li Mu still has to rely on the old man to help him. After all, he can't be too much, so Li Mu asks Yan Shun to listen to "sage's teaching" instead of Li Mu.
This is not Li Mu's intentional neglect. After all, the fat man is not there, and Li Mu can send a person to replace it.
It seemed that the young children had lost their heart to Li Mu. For an entire night, no one came to Li Mu except Mike came to Li Mu for a second ticket, as if there were no Li Mu as a foreign student.
Li Mu didn't feel left out. It ’s okay, and he did n’t interfere with each other. It ’s God ’s destiny. Li Mu plans to let Yan Shun go to class instead of himself. Anyway, for the old man, Li Mu himself is the same as long as he does n’t come. Just a mess.
There was nothing to say overnight. I had breakfast early the next morning, and another dozen horse-drawn carriages went straight to the train station. After a period of tragedy, Li Mu and his party finally got on the train and set off on their journey to Springfield.
The trains these days are still steam locomotives. The locomotive has insufficient horsepower, so there were only five carriages on the train, one of which was filled with coal and water, and the remaining carriages were full of people. The style of the compartment is similar to the green leather car that Li Mu has seen in his last life. Of course, the details are still different. For example, the seats in the compartment are covered with leather and are still leather. From this point, $ 28 per person is still a good thing. Value for money.
Each carriage can hold about 100 passengers. Fortunately, Americans do not sell station tickets now, so the carriages are not crowded. Although there is no equipment such as air-conditioning fans, but the windows can be opened, the ventilation effect is very good. , But there is no odor.
Officials of the Children's Overseas Education Bureau have now increased to nearly forty, plus thirty foreign students, nearly forty servants of the fat man, and Li Mu and their team were filled with a whole half-car. After the train started, suddenly Exclaimed, not only are these children interested in the new thing about trains, but even officials from young children's foreign trade bureaus have endless dioramas.
After getting in the car, Li Mu had no chance to appreciate the natural scenery of the 19th century in the United States, because Mike was entangled in Li Mu, and he asked Li Mu to give Mike some suggestions for his business plan.
After Mike bought the drawings of Li Mu, he did not intend to sell them in reverse, but prepared to open a factory himself. After Springfield, Mike would first apply for a patent and then set up an arsenal to specialize in the production of such designs designed by Li Mu. Double action pistol.
Li Mu now knows that the Springfield they are going to is not the Springfield that is the capital of Illinois, but Springfield, Massachusetts, which is the center of the American machine manufacturing and arms industry. "Springfield Rifle" is produced here.
