"Thomas, why did you bring me to New York? Do you have an old flame here?" Li Mo turned her head and asked strangely at Thomas who was exceptionally excited.
"Old friends?" Thomas was still not fully understanding of the Eastern phrase.
"It's a lover!" Li Dashiye stroked his mustache and made a curvaceous gesture with his hand.
"No, Lee! You can't frame me, I don't have any old flame!" Thomas understood the international gesture and patted his chest repeatedly to show his innocence.
"Alright then, tell me the truth, what did you bring me here for?"
"Hmm......" Thomas fell silent for a moment, then blushed and said: "Dear Li, have you forgotten? I think the friend you introduced is arriving in New York today!"
"Get to the point!" Li Mo kicked Thomas and thought, "Bastard, dare to fool around with Master, kick you to death!"
Li Mo found himself somewhat enjoying kicking people with his feet, of course, the main problem was that his legs were too short, although during this period of time, nutrition had caught up and his legs had started to grow wildly, but compared to Thomas, it was still... kick again!
Thomas was speechless and wanted to kick back, but considering the military strength of both sides, as well as Du Dazhuang, who was tall and sturdy, staring at him from behind the carriage, he chose to give up.
"My girlfriend will arrive today too!"
"Today, emotions are for one's own 'happiness', let the young master accompany you to pick people up, and indeed it is a dog!" Li Mian looked at Thomas with disdain and said: "Is your girlfriend pretty?"
Nonsense, Thomas hastily pointed to the sky and vowed that his girlfriend was the most beautiful woman in this world. Mr. Li suddenly became interested and continued to ask: "Wow, that's great! Does she have a sister? As old as me, and as beautiful as her?"
Thomas "..."
When he saw Thomas, Li Mu turned his head and ignored him directly. He was still angry and wanted to kick him a few more times, but thinking that the guy's girlfriend had come today, he decided to give him some face, so he also turned his head and didn't look at him.
Without the vastness and bleakness of the West, the prosperous New York is like a night pearl inlaid on the Atlantic coast, shining with fascinating light.
Maybe it's a coincidence, or maybe it's fate. Li Mo also came to New York from the future, having studied in the US for four years. If I had said this before, it would have been laughable - who wouldn't visit New York while in America?
Ke Li Mo happened to have been to the future, not that he was a lazy ghost who didn't want to move around. In fact, Li Mo had been to many cities in the United States, even as far away as Alaska, and had gone with a tour group, but just hadn't entered New York City! Another time, he even drove to New Jersey, and as soon as he crossed the river, it would be New York, but a phone call summoned him back again.
This time, he made up for his regret. Although there is no Empire State Building, no Times Square, and no World Trade Center ruins here now, this is still New York.
A burgeoning Manhattan Island, Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange Center, Greenwich Street and the famous Fifth Avenue, as well as Broadway, the city that never sleeps.
New York is still New York, although it's now 1890, but the city and its intoxicating aroma have spread across both shores of the Atlantic.
Li Mo's gaze quietly followed the carriage's footsteps, occasionally a bus loaded with large pots would pass by, or it was like a miniature toy, still burning coal oil, so-called three-wheeled rickshaw speeding past himself, all of which made Li Mo feel a kind of pressure.
America is powerful, and this is particularly evident in New York, an international metropolis. Today's New York is like the South China Sea coast during the initial period of reform and opening up - everywhere is a construction site, factories, and dense crowds that follow.
The economy was booming in this rapid construction, the powerful driving force brought by industrial progress made America begin to emit an overwhelming momentum. Even without any knowledge of later generations, Li Mo could see at this moment that it would be a very short time for the United States to surpass Britain and become the world's largest industrial power.
But the problem is, the stronger America becomes, the smaller Li Da's playground will be, or he'll have to give up his dreams and just become a rich playboy? Li Mo shook his head, quickly dismissing the idea. He didn't want to conquer the world, but he wanted to control his own destiny, to change that humiliating chapter in Chinese history that made all Chinese people feel so ashamed.
Pfft! Can't even accomplish this, isn't it humiliating for a transmigrator?
As the carriage passed through a residential area, the scene suddenly opened up, and the long Hudson River wound its way around Long Island, deep into the harbor. On the surface of the sea, countless cargo ships with flags of various countries slowly passed by, and the thick black smoke seemed to be like a giant dragon rushing towards the sky, symbolizing one of the two most thrilling things in this era.
Giant ship!
And another is the mighty cannon, when the two are combined, it represents strong power and strength!
As Li Mo looked at the cargo ships filling the channel, a huge shadow emitting black smoke also slowly entered the harbor. With several blasts of the whistle, that huge shadow finally appeared before everyone's eyes.
The Atlantic liner! It is one of the symbols of this era.
Whether it was Li Mo, who had seen countless giant ships in his previous life, or Thomas, whose face was anxious and somewhat urgent, or Du Dazhuang, who had already stared wide-eyed and opened his mouth, unable to speak.
It's all just one feeling!
Insignificant!
When a 170-meter-long, 17-meter-wide giant with a bridge that is almost as high as five or six floors stops in front of you, this will probably be everyone's first feeling.
Li was excitedly looking at the first large ship he saw after coming to this world, and according to his calculations, this ship was not far from a displacement of 10,000 tons.
As the bow of the cruise ship slowly passed in front of the dock, Li Mo finally saw the name of the ship, Taidong, White Star Shipping Company.
"Get out!"
Mr. Li spat out a mouthful of saliva that flew out into the wind, although he didn't remember this ship, but as for the White Star Shipping Company, it was all too familiar, not to mention him, even if someone from later generations were asked, they would probably know, because the famous Titanic, was indeed the "masterpiece" of this shipping company!
Li Mu stared blankly at the cursed name, thinking that he should remind the White Star Company not to name any ship Titanic in the future. But then he thought better of it, figuring that even if he said something, no one would believe him. Besides, even without Titanic, there might be Westernic or Easternic or whatever.
"Damn, what bad luck!" He didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky name on his first visit to the dock. Li Mo hastily swore an oath that from now on, he would never let his men board a ship of this company again!
As the cruise ship began to lower its gangway, Li Mo subconsciously walked towards the bow of the ship, but only took a few steps before being pulled back by Thomas. He pointed to the stern and said with some embarrassment, "Over there!"
With just one glance, Li Mo knew why Thomas was blushing, because compared to the first-class passengers who were dressed up and had a lot of servants helping them with their luggage at the bow, the people pouring out from the stern looked like Chinese migrant workers from the early 1990s.
Shouting and making a racket, dragging large and small bags, some even with their chests exposed and backs bare, in a chaotic mess.
Watching Thomas, who was running with himself, Li suddenly wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh at all. After all, this guy, who is only 28 years old now, almost got killed by Rudolf half a year ago, and after meeting him, he cried bitterly and begged for mercy, almost kowtowing.
It's just that during this time, following Li Mo, from mining to oil extraction, his savings have been soaring, so he forgot about his birth. After all, this guy is just a poor man, and an orphan who is even more miserable than himself. How could someone like him possibly have a girlfriend who can afford to travel with countless servants in first class? In this world where status and position are emphasized, the story of a princess and a commoner will always be just a fairy tale.
No wonder he's shy when I go first class.
This cute guy, is he being too harsh on himself? Why not give him more shares? What! Daring to push the young master, isn't it just introducing a girlfriend? Does it need to be so exciting? Deduct money! Deduct shares!
Seeing Thomas rush into the crowd to search, Li Mo only discovered that Du Dazhuang's mouth was still open beside him, and the saliva at the corner of his mouth had flowed to the ground!
Good for nothing! It's just a big ship, isn't it? How humiliating! After kicking Du Dazhuang with force, he finally took out ten dollars from his pocket and handed it over: "Go, buy a ticket, and go take a look yourself!"
These days, many shipping companies allow ticket sales for people to board and visit the ship after docking, both as a form of promotion and to maximize profits. So Li Mo told Du Dazhuang to buy tickets, lest they lose face in front of everyone!
After receiving the money, Du Dazhuang was extremely excited and disappeared into the crowd in a few seconds. Meanwhile, Thomas, who had not yet found his girlfriend, returned to Li Mo's side and asked, "Where did he go?"
"Buy tickets and board the cruise ship." Li Mo pointed at the large ship in front of them.
"God, that only cost ten cents, but you gave a whole ten dollars!" Although he was satisfied with Li Mu's kindness to the poor, Thomas still shouted out in his stingy manner.
After giving a cold glance at this miser, Li Mo finally curled his lips and said: "No change!"
"Ugh......" Thomas shut his mouth, especially thinking that this guy still had a large checkbook in his pocket. With his character, it was already not bad to buy tickets without opening the checkbook.
"Thomas! Thomas!"
At this moment, a crisp and pleasant cry suddenly interrupted the two people, and they saw a girl walking out of the crowd wearing a white long skirt and a traditional Scottish hat.
"...Ah..." As Thomas went up to hug the girl, Li Dashi took a deep breath and finally saw clearly that apart from being Thomas's girlfriend...
Thick, dark brown curly hair, beautiful big eyes, a chest that was even more prominent due to the tight dress, plus the slender legs under the skirt, although not the most beautiful, but indeed very pretty.
"What a typical Scottish beauty!" Li Dashi couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but unfortunately, he could only look and indulge in his fantasies, because the other person was already taken. He couldn't help but feel jealous: "Damn Thomas, he's really lucky! Ah, it's all because of his age, otherwise how would such a beauty be wasted on him?!"
At this time, a strange cry came from behind the beautiful woman: "Thomas, you color-loving and friend-hating bastard, come and help me!"
Li Mouxun followed the sound and saw that behind the two people, a man wearing a crumpled Western suit and glasses, with a hint of literary youthfulness, was carrying two large trunks in his hands, with a large bundle on his head, moving forward with difficulty while shouting loudly.
That's probably the friend Thomas mentioned a few times.
Seeing Thomas go help his friend with luggage, Li Mo finally walked up to the beauty. "Hey, beauty! Hello, I'm Li Mo, Thomas's partner!"
"God, you're Lee Mo!" Apparently, the beautiful woman was shocked by Lee Mo's age and even forgot about Mr. Li's somewhat frivolous tone. After a while, she stretched out her hand, regained her composure, and grasped Lee Mo's small hand, saying: "Cindy Lauren, Thomas' girlfriend!"
"Ah, smooth hands!" Mr. Li hadn't had time to fully appreciate the sensation when another large hand reached out and snatched his own from Cindy's, saying "Herbert George Wells, Thomas' best friend."
What!
Li's eyes were about to pop out! He stared at the young man in front of him, who had obviously learned his true identity from Thomas, and was on the verge of foaming at the mouth, unable to speak.
Herbert George Wells! "Good heavens, are you kidding me? I just saved a nobody named Thomas, why bring out this great god?"
Suddenly, Li Mu saw vaguely that countless science fiction fans dug open his grave, dragged him out of the coffin, whipped his skeleton with a leather whip, dripped wax candles on it, and set it on fire! Finally, they didn't forget to spit on it.
Who made off with a genius science fiction writer?!
The famous "Time Machine" may never come out, Li Mo cried with a sad face, thinking if he should go help George buy a ticket now and put him on the mail boat to send him back to England?
At this time, Thomas the bastard came again and even introduced himself with a good self: "George is my best friend. He has just received a Bachelor of Science degree from Imperial College London and originally wanted to stay there to teach. But after receiving my telegram, he rushed over immediately. Believe me, Li, he will be the best choice!"
"Go do your morning exercises! Others are teaching well, what are you meddling with? Now I, Young Master, won't be able to show my face anymore? Won't those sci-fi fans in the future scold me to death?" Li Mo pointed to the sky and spat, if it weren't for his girlfriend coming today, he would have definitely been treated to a kick from the Buddha Mountain's shadowless leg!
"Whatever, since so many things have changed anyway, it won't make a difference to bring along one more writer. Otherwise, next time I'll just write my own 'Time Machine' and muddle through." Mr. Li tapped his fingers, thinking left and right but couldn't come up with anything.
However, Li Dashi had a habit of not taking things seriously when he couldn't think of something at the moment. He immediately turned his head and asked Xindi: "Dear Xindi, do you have a sister? Or a schoolmate? A cousin would also be fine, if there really isn't one, then the daughter or schoolmate of the third aunt's cousin from next door would also work! But she must be as beautiful as you are, and as tall as I am!"
Cindy covered her mouth.
Thomas... full of black lines!
And our famous science fiction writer George...
Emotionless!
