Youth Island was once used by the Spaniards as a prison for Cuba's rebels. It is now privately owned by Li Mu, and is most suitable for holding stones and Henderson.
If according to tradition, Li Mu should hang the stone and Anderson to Nassau Port, but Li Mu does not plan to do so. The two men are alive and will have greater value. If the British insist on blaming Sean Bradley's death At San Diego Investment, those two would be the killers in Li Mu's hands.
The British did not know that Stone and Henderson were still alive, and did not know what kind of reply Ulysses Grant gave to the British. In early July, the British envoy responsible for the full investigation of the matter sent a letter to the President of the United States of Cuba, Shelves. In particular, the captains of the two armed merchant ships, the Water Hound and the Great White Shark, who participated in the peace and chaos that night were investigated.
In the face of the British, Ulysses Grant was barely able to stand up straight, and Sylvester could only go all out. Compared with the "sunrise empire" that is still in its infancy, the newly born United States of Cuba Cowardly like a baby, there is no cost to refuse.
When the president came to Silvester, he was also aggrieved. When he faced the British, he was pretending to be a grandson. In the face of Li Mu, he was also embarrassed. If he wanted to investigate the captain of the San Diego investment company, he must first get angry with Li Mutong If Li Mu doesn't allow it, then Sylvester is the rat in the bellows.
Fortunately, Li Mu did not give Sylvester a problem, and agreed to the captains of the "Water Hound" and "Great White Shark" to be investigated. Anyhow, in English, nothing could be found, and the two captains might be issued medals.
Well, it ’s impossible to send a medal, but the necessary thanks should still be there. After all, if it was n’t for the “Water Hound” and “Great White Shark” arrived in time, it is estimated that the entire Nassau has now been turned into ruins. .
Since the British have always claimed to be "gentlemanly," they should be fair, and benevolent. They must report to Yongquan.
Li Mu didn't pay much attention to what would be written in the British investigation report. Anyway, with Stone and Henderson in hand, Li Mu was already invincible. Even if the British found out the truth of the matter, Li Mu could put the stone and Henderson threw it out to counter.
Since there is no fear or fear, Li Mu's mood is quite relaxed and happy.
On July 15, the world's first urban beauty store opened in Battery Park, Manhattan.
City Beauty Store is a luxury store that is dedicated to women. It covers everything from clothing to shoes to bags and jewellery. According to Li Mu ’s one-stop shopping concept, Gloria claims to meet all the needs of women.
The owner of the city beauty is Gloria, but there is a share of Chu Xue, so on July 15th, Li Mu and Will went to Battery Park together for Chu Xue and Gloria platform.
This kind of thing Li Mu has done a lot, it can be described as a light car, Will will not work, he is the first time to attend such an occasion, so he is not used to it.
"Sherman asked Dickens to be the second division commander. This appointment is simply nonsense. What will Dickens do? I guarantee that he will not be able to memorize even the" Army Code ". Let such a person be the military chief of a unit. Xie Herman was crazy ... "Standing at the door of the city's beauty store, Will chattered, thinking about those things in the army.
The War Department decided to establish the Second Army Cavalry Division on the basis of the First Army Cavalry Division. Sherman's old subordinate Dickens was appointed as the second division commander.
The formation of the Second Cavalry Division is exactly the same as that of the First Cavalry Division. All weapons are purchased from the Steed Weapons Company. The equipment list includes 75mm infantry rapid-fire guns.
The 2nd Cavalry Division has more than 9,600 people, and the total order is nearly 1.5 million US dollars. This order will bring about 600,000 US dollars in profits to the Steed Weapons Company. Unfortunately, the necessary public relations expenses are removed. The money made by Steed Weapons Company Not as much money as the War Department has made.
It sounds like Will and Dickens are a bit off. It is estimated that this is what Sherman wants to see. If Sherman appoints Will's friend as the second division of the Army Cavalry, then Sherman will be suspended. Dangerous, no matter what the leader does not want to slap himself into harmony, good leaders are masters of balance.
"Come on John, come and have a drink ..." Li Mu didn't focus on Will's complaining at all. The men who accompanied his wife to the shop were the targets of Li Mu's greetings.
There is a waiting area in the Metropolis Beauty Store. Men who accompany women walking through the store can choose to rest in the waiting area if they are tired.
The waiting area prepares cigars and champagne. These are imported goods and are of great value, but in the end, the wool comes out of the sheep. Li Mu and Gloria are sure of this.
Now Li Mu is already at the top of the pyramid. Not many people deserve to be invited by Li Mu himself. John Rockefeller must be among them.
"Do you still have the heart to do this? I really envy you young people, full of energy." Rockefeller shook his head again and again, marveling at Li Mu's unworkable business.
Entrepreneurs in the United States still rarely operate across borders. The one who digs oil is the one who digs for oil, and the steel smelter has no stubborn steelmaking. This is the only one with a hammer and a mallet like Li Mu.
Rockefeller has kept up with the pace of Li Mu as much as possible, but seeing the urban beauty store in front of him, Rockefeller completely admired.
You, an arms dealer, investing in laboratories, investing in schools, investing in the electrical appliance industry, etc. can barely justify it. Now what if you have a special store to make money for women?
To be honest, Rockefeller now feels like getting on the thief ship. His laboratory has not seen any results, which makes Rockefeller very disappointed.
"No, no, this is not mine. This is just a useful attempt by Miss Will. Maybe she will open up a new industry." Li Mu categorically denied that it is not very pleasant to make money for women.
At present in the United States, and even in the current world, apart from Li Mu, it is estimated that no one has really discovered the potential of women's consumption, which is much easier than digging oil to make machine guns.
Digging oil can only make a few dollars. A barrel of oil is dug from the ground and the cost is close to $ 2.50. Even if it is used more thoroughly now, gasoline can be refined, and it can only be sold for up to $ 5, generating a profit of $ 2.50.
Luxury goods are much more exaggerated. A small handbag, even if it uses gold for the logo, costs only about ten dollars. Such a bag is placed in the urban beauty store, and the cheapest one is 99.99 dollars.
"Cut, don't use Miss Will as a guise, look at the pricing in this store, 99.99, 199.99 ... Only you, the adulterer, will set such a price. Can you say that it has nothing to do with you?" Rockefeller didn't believe it at all. He knew Li Mu better than he knew himself.
When talking about this, Li Mu didn't have the face to continue to deny it. After a haha, he wanted to get the topic off.
"Yes, the price is too dark. A pair of shoes is 199.99, a handbag is the cheapest 99.99, and even a hat is 59.99. A person like Miss Will would not make so many tricks. "Carnegie also came with his wife. It seems that Carnegie's wife just bought a lot of things, and even people like Carnegie feel a little pain.
"I said that our group of people are so desperate to make money, isn't it just wanting their family to do whatever they want to do? Do you group of miser, do you want to bring your wealth to the grave?" .
"You guys who don't even have a wife don't waffle here!" In response to Li Mu was a neat middle finger.
"I have to say, we all underestimated the store ..." John Vanderbilt was not involved in the siege, sitting on a sofa with a glass of champagne, watching the stream of people thoughtfully.
It really can't be underestimated. It can make a group of top tycoons feel the pain of the meat. It can be seen that the products in urban beauty stores are attractive to women.
Basically, people who come here do n’t return empty-handed. Everyone buys and buys like they do n’t want money. It looks like crazy. John Vanderbilt even saw Rockefeller ’s wife take everything in the store. I bought a pair of shoes.
Roughly estimated that at this morning, the store's turnover should be at least about 100,000.
This number should not be underestimated. This is the US dollar in 1875. The purchasing power is still very secure. The annual turnover of a medium-sized company is more than 100,000 US dollars.
"It's impossible to do good business every day, otherwise I want to change my career." Solomon Loeb collapsed. As a Jew, Solomon Loeb always thought that his ability to make money was no worse than anyone, but today's situation Makes Solomon Loeb blush.
"If you're envious, then hurry up. Didn't you find out? Only women's products are sold here, and there are no men's products, so you still have a chance." Rockefeller helped with the idea. The Lord.
"Hahaha ... if you were a shop that specializes in men's goods, it would kill you." Carnegie didn't think it was a good idea.
Indeed, for Li Mu and their group, every item on their bodies, even the handkerchief on their chests, is custom-made, and most of the goods in the urban beauty store are mass-produced industrial products, so Carnegie I don't think he will buy things from here, and only women who value style and trends will be so impatient.
"No, Andrew, you are wrong. Of course, your suit and shirt must be made to order, but your shoes and belt may not be necessary, and your wallet or watch. You ca n’t wear them 24 hours a day. Formal, right? "Vanderbilt didn't think so, and it seemed that he did use his heart.
Do men have a demand for luxury goods?
Of course there is, and because men are the head of the family, they are the pillars, so men need more support.
That's a person like Carnegie. He is customized from head to toe, including underwear. Naturally, he doesn't need to come here to buy things, but not everyone is as strong and has enough financial resources as Carnegie. To seek customization, most people just need to pass.
Even if it is Carnegie, it is not possible to wear formal clothes every day. For example, when hunting, do you carry a three-piece suit with a shotgun to hunt? Come on, on different occasions, choose the right clothes. This is both respect for others and for yourself.
Li Mu did not participate in such discussions, as Li Mu said, the city beauty store is only a good attempt for Gloria. Next, if the city beauty store is successful in women's products, then Gloria will Entering the men's clothing market, it was a virgin land that was not cultivated.
Of course, this kind of thing is to elaborate. Li Mu ’s attitude is the same as before, and competition is not necessarily a bad thing. Whether it is Vanderbilt, Carnegie, or Solomon, as long as they want to enter the men's clothing market, Li Mu will welcome.
The most likely one should be Vanderbilt, but it is not easy to make this decision. Although the Vanderbilt family is now barely regarded as a cross-border business, while working on its old line of railways, Going to run a car, but this is still in the transportation industry. Clothing is definitely a new industry for the Vanderbilt family. The Vanderbilt family has never been involved before.
"I think it's a good idea, Lim, we need to talk about it carefully." Unexpectedly, the first decision was made by Solomon Loeb.
It can also be understood that if you think about it, the relationship between Solomon Loeb and Li Mu is the most unstable. If you want to quickly increase the intimacy with Li Mu, it is a good idea to do business together.
Of course, this is also because the current menswear market has not yet shown enough value, so there should be no bad incidents against the eyes. In other words, the plate is too small, and I do n’t look at any of this money. It ’s just a new one. It ’s just a toy.
"Certainly, Mr. Solomon. There will be an auction at Clinton Castle on Saturday night. I hope we can have a good chat by then." Li Mu sent an invitation to Solomon Loeb.
The beach club auction has become a convention, and it will be held every Saturday night. The theme of the auction is various. It has long been not limited to selling books and stocks. It may be a collection of a gentleman, or it may be Artwork from a country.
"That's great. I was hoping to talk to you. Recently, you have been moving frequently. If you have any good projects, please remember to bring me." Solomon Loeb didn't take the stand and lowered his posture. Very well.
In front of Li Mu, Solomon Loeb was also not qualified to take the shelf. This is a society with weak meat and strong food, and his strength is not as good as others, so he must be honest with his grandson.
