In November 1859, New York, eastern United States, had already entered winter, the wind was very hard and it was cold.

What's even colder was Li Mengyang's heart. After some trouble, he returned to New York, but along the way, his mind kept thinking about the little things between him and Eleanor.

The first encounter in New Mexico... in the chaos of Kansas... from the middle to the east... run newspapers... write novels... utopian socialism......

Li Mengyang just didn't want to forget her. When he knew that Eleanor was Robert Lee's daughter, he knew that Eleanor would be fine, but it was really difficult for him to see her again.

Robert Lee, he is a legend in the legend, and he can be said to be an American aristocrat, a real aristocrat. His father was Henry Lee, who was called "Light Cavalry Lee" and made great achievements in the war. His grandfather was Charlie Lee, and his name was in the Manifesto! His wife was Anna Castice Lee, the great-granddaughter of George Washington's wife Martha Washington. Washington's legacy was actually mainly inherited by this branch. Arlington was their home, which was the property of Washington. At this time, the most prominent one in Washington was Robert Lee.

In other words, Eleanor Lee, she is a royal relative!

He, Li Mengyang, is a Chinese craftsman who wants to rebel, and the gap between them is like the Milky Way in the sky.

Li Mengyang often thinks of Huang Rong, and he can't forget this woman. Sometimes he really doesn't know what to do and how to choose... It seems that he is thinking too much.

Don't think about it anymore! A headache! It's still a big deal!

Li Mengyang returned to the New York Evening News, and he immediately summoned all the important figures, but in fact there were not many, just Matthew, Mai Youli, and the big Bill.

"Now we must move to the underground in full!"

As soon as the few people arrived, Li Mengyang was straight to the point, and he didn't say anything nonsense.

"This..." Matthew was a little overwhelmed.

"Mengyang, what's wrong?" Mai Youli was completely confused about the situation.

"Mr. Eastwood, I don't think it's necessary. What I heard is that the old guy John Brown is constantly writing letters, but it doesn't seem to mention you, and Eleanor." The big man Bill still has a very political sense.

In fact, as for John Brown, those who do not have a sense of political sense will definitely hear a lot of news about him, because John Brown is now the largest celebrity in the United States, and all the newspapers and celebrities are talking about this guy!

The Whig, the capital of Virginia, said, "This down-and-out old traitor and murderer should be on the gallows!"

Frederick Douglas said: "John Brown can die to liberate slaves, but he can only live for this. This is the comparison between the sun and the moon and the sky..."

Henry David Thoreau said: "The two ends of a long chain. He is no longer the old Brown; he has become an angel that spreads light..." The other end of his words was neither someone else, but God, and this metaphor is simply too exaggerated.

Southerners hated John Brown to the core because they could no longer see any place to compromise between the north and the south, especially slave owners, especially those who interrogated the case, because there was news that they had the information of several financial owners behind supporting John Brown, and those people were Yankees and rich people!

The public opinion in the north is very fierce now, and the most important thing is to target John Brown's ending. It can be imagined that it must be on the gallows, but they regard this ending as American law's indulgence on the South!

The conflict between the two sides is no longer irreconcilable, and Li Mengyang naturally knew all this. He bought newspapers a lot along the way. It is precisely because of this that he wanted to transfer everything he has now to the ground, just to stop doing open work.

This is actually an insurance approach, because Li Mengyang doesn't want everything he has in control now. It was exposed before this civil war in the United States, which is too fucking.

"I have no confidence in that guy John Brown, and we can't take risks now. My face has been seen by those soldiers. Once it is exposed, our newspapers, arsenals, everything, will have problems, we can't take risks!"

Li Mengyang's words are not unreasonable, but it's easy to say anything else, but how did you transfer this newspaper underground? Is it still secretly done? Where can I make money?

The New York Evening News is now the foundation of all Li Mengyang’s industries, the operation of the arsenal, and the warship, relying on this newspaper to support it. If it is a secret now, where will the money come from?

"Mr. Eastwood, if we lose the newspaper, we will lose other things, and I believe you will understand." The people here, the big man Bill, really understands these things.

"What should I do? If someone verifies me, I am Clint Eastwood, Clint Lee, and I have also participated in this treason movement. Then our newspapers will be done, and everything else will be done, everyone..." Before Li Mengyang finished speaking, Mai Youli said over there.

"Mengyang! What are you afraid of! Let's go and grab his fuck again!"

Very good. After awakening, the banditry came out.

"What I want to do is a big thing, not a grab!"

Li Mengyang has already made a lot of arrangements, but now, these people can't see it now, which is actually normal. For people in this era, where can they see what the results of these arrangements will have?

But it cannot be said explicitly, so it is a bit painful.

"Otherwise, Mr. Eastwood, you're behind the scenes. This newspaper is still in the open, just to find someone else to be the editor-in-chief."

This method is very good. The big Bill is also a smart person, but the question is, who will be the editor-in-chief?

"Can you be the editor-in-chief?"

"This..." The big Bill immediately became timid.

He is a liar in the world, maybe he is smart and calculating, but if you want him to play with his pen, isn’t this going to drive a donkey to put it on the shelves?

The New York Evening News has no reporters at this time, and our newspaper has also developed, but how important is the editor-in-chief? This is completely related to the style of a newspaper. It is like why the New York Tribune likes fantasy socialism so much? Isn’t it because their founder and editor-in-chief Greeley likes this social theory?

Isn’t the reason why I run this newspaper mainly to brainwash the people in the eastern United States? Then Li Mengyang will no longer be the editor-in-chief and go to find an editor-in-chief. How can I brainwash it?

Li Mengyang also considered finding someone to be a puppet, but the problem is that the evening newspaper is too famous now. This puppet cannot be an unknown person, right? So, how can such a person be a puppet? Even if he is willing to be a puppet, will Li Mengyang dare to use him? Because if he is not done well, what if this guy sells the matter behind your Li Mengyang as big news to other newspapers?

Literature is very evil, and intellectuals are very sensible.

So what should I do?

For a moment, no one had any idea.

"After a break, it's not a solution to think about it." Li Mengyang suggested that everyone rest first, which naturally gained the support of everyone.

"Hmm?" Since it's rest, you can't just sit there. Li Mengyang wanted to walk around, but when he just got up and came to the door, he found a package that was thrown into the garbage dump.

As for newspapers, there will naturally be many people who will contribute, and most of them will be treated as garbage, especially Li Mengyang is not here, because in our newspapers, what is the final say?

This package was for him, but this signature was very attractive to Li Mengyang.

Samuel Lanhen Clement, why is this name a little familiar?

"Mengyang, what do you think of this? You are going to sell waste paper."

"It's also idle."

Li Mengyang didn't think much about it, so just take a look. The package should be manuscripts, so you can change your mood when reading.

As a result, when Li Mengyang saw this, he slapped his thigh!

"It's him!"

Who is it?

Everyone present was a little confused because they hadn't heard of this guy named Clement yet, but Li Mengyang knew that this person was the famous Mark Twain!

Mark Twain was not famous at all at this time. He just published some short stories in humor magazines. Writing was just his hobby. Now he is still a sailor, which means he is not Mark Twain.

However, don’t Li Mengyang know about Mark Twain’s style of articles? It should be said that students in China are most familiar with the writing style of American writers. Therefore, Li Mengyang could tell at a glance who wrote these manuscripts, whether in style or language, it was definitely him.

So, isn’t Mark Twain the best candidate for the editor-in-chief of the New York Evening News?

"It's this person, I'll write back to him and let him be the editor-in-chief!"

"Ah? Can it be done? Just him?"

"Trust me, that's right."

Li Mengyang didn't explain much. Now that he has found the best candidate, maybe Mark Twain is not very famous, but his strength is not a problem and he will definitely become famous. Moreover, his writing style is still very critical, which is exactly what Li Mengyang needs.

It's really great! All problems are solved!

Li Mengyang can move behind the scenes with peace of mind.

"Sir! Someone is here to look for it!"

Just when Li Mengyang was happy, someone came outside. Who is this?

"Mr. Clint Li, my master invites you to take a trip. The carriage is ready, I hope you can enjoy your face."

He turned out to be a Chinese man with braids, of course, he spoke Cantonese.

"Who is your master?"

Li Mengyang really doesn’t know that there are Chinese people in New York City who know him and will invite him to come over. Who is it? And it’s already night now, who will look for him at this time?

"Sir, please, my master is Mr. John Murray Forbes."

When they reported their own family, Li Mengyang then remembered that Forbes was what John Brown said, "They supported him in the abolitionist revolution!"

So what do people like this come to do for themselves?

"I don't know him." To be honest, Li Mengyang just doesn't want to go, but let's not tear his face, right?

However, what this Chinese said is interesting.

"Sir, if you don't go, my master said that there are some things, such as with Mr. Brown..."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Needless to say, Forbes is threatening Clint Lee, if you don't come, he will make your participation in the John Brown uprising public...
