Chen Mo's analogy made Abraham Lincoln's eyes light up, and his heart suddenly felt enlightened.
Indeed, although the conflict between the North and the South was getting more and more intense, it had not yet reached its peak. It was more of a struggle in Congress, and the people were not deeply affected. Now was not a good time to start a war. It was better to let it continue to develop for a while. When the time was ripe, it would not be them who wanted to start a war, but the people of the country!
At that time, everything would fall into place!
Chen Mo looked at Abraham Lincoln and suddenly said, "Don't worry, Abraham Lincoln has a lot of things to worry about.
"The next president will be you, Abraham Lincoln! Slavery will end in your hands! "
Chen Mo's words made Lincoln's pupils shrink. Although he was now the leader of the Republican Party, he could only be regarded as a young man in politics in his forties. The main reason he could become the leader of the Republican Party was Chen Mo's support and training.
There were many people in the party who had more seniority and prestige than him. He had not intended to send himself to run for president, but John Fremont, who had a greater influence among the people.
His influence in Illinois was not very high, but it was not very high in other states. He himself was not well known by the public, so it was unrealistic for him to run for president. However, Chen Mo now said that the next president would be him!
He did not know how powerful Chen Mo was, but he knew that Chen Mo would not speak without thinking. Since he said so now, there must be sufficient evidence. The power in his hands was indeed enough to affect the outcome of the presidential election to a large extent. Abraham Lincoln could not help but feel excited. He also wanted to sit on the throne of the president and personally lead the United States to completely eliminate slavery!
Chen Mo's words completely dispelled Lincoln's idea of mobilizing the party's power to fight for the presidential election, but it did not diminish his fighting spirit at all. Instead, it made him even more motivated to fight.
In four years, he would personally rewrite the history of the United States!
Next, Chen Mo explained to him some of the development goals of the Republican Party during this period of time, the problems that needed to be paid attention to, and the preparations that could be made in advance. After all of these were explained, he raised his hand to see Lincoln out.
After listening to Chen Mo's teachings, Abraham Lincoln stood up from his chair, bowed respectfully, and said respectfully.
"Then, sir, I'll take my leave first!"
"Okay!"
Chen Mo nodded gently, but just as Lincoln was about to turn around and leave, Chen Mo suddenly thought of something and spoke again.
"By the way, you can try to grow a beard, it will make you more dignified."
Although Lin Ken was somewhat baffled, he still nodded and agreed. It was only later when he really grew a beard that he realized Chen Mo's wisdom!
Lincoln's cheeks were very thin, even sunken inwards. He did not look handsome or dignified enough. In history, when Lincoln was running for president, he had a lot of headaches because of his thin cheeks. It was not until someone suggested that he grow a beard that he looked much more handsome. Don't underestimate this beard, it also won him a lot of votes.
Chen Mo also just thought of it, so he reminded him.
Abraham Lincoln was about to leave after saying goodbye to Chen Mo. When he turned around, he saw a familiar sharp silver light in the corner of his eyes.
Lincoln looked carefully and found that on a table by the wall of the study, there was a shelf. At this time, there was a silver two-handed Knight's sword that was more than one meter long lying horizontally on the shelf!
And this sword was exactly the same as the long sword in the oil painting behind Chen Mo, in the hand of the black-robed Knight who led the Knight Regiment to charge towards the castle gate!
Since he had already bid farewell to Chen Mo, it wasn't appropriate for him to stay in the study any longer. Therefore, Lin Ken only took a deep look at the longsword, deeply imprinting its appearance in his mind. Then, he opened the door and walked out.
Abraham Lincoln gently closed the door of the study and stood at the door of Chen Mo's study for a long time, his face full of doubts, but it was not appropriate for him to stay here any longer. So, he walked down the corridor and thought about this unexpected discovery in his mind.
Although he only took a glance, he completely remembered the appearance of the sword. The workmanship of the sword was extremely simple and exquisite. It did not look like an imitation made from an oil painting.
Could it be that the scene in the painting really happened in the past? Then who was the black-robed Knight? What was their final outcome?
With all kinds of questions in mind, Lincoln walked down the stairs.
The direction of the stairs was the direction of the hall on the first floor. Walking up the stairs, he could clearly see the scene in the hall. Although he was thinking about something, Lincoln's eyes still saw the situation in the hall.
In the hall on the first floor, in addition to the middle-aged man who led him upstairs, he also saw two very tall and strong young men walking in from the side door of the hall. They were even taller than him, nearly two meters tall. Moreover, the two men's bodies were extremely majestic, and their bodies exuded a ferocious aura like that of wild beasts.
In the eyes of the two men, there was a knife-like sharpness and an unruly arrogance.
With just a glance, Lincoln could feel that the two men were not ordinary.
They must be very strong. They should be Mr. Chen's bodyguards. Only a person like Mr. Chen could subdue such strong bodyguards.
Mr. Chen's subordinates are indeed not ordinary people!
But what surprised him was that the calm middle-aged man who had led him to Chen Mo's study was furious after seeing the two young men and rushed towards them.
"You two stinking brats dare to be lazy!"
The two young men, who were much taller and stronger than the middle-aged man, had a change in expression when they heard his voice. They immediately turned around and ran out of the door, disappearing in the blink of an eye. However, the voices of the two men came from outside the door.
"Damn Old Taylor. He deliberately hid in the hall to block us. He's too cunning!"
The middle-aged man who ran to the door and stopped was furious. He directly shouted at the two men's backs.
"I'm waiting for someone here! You two go back and continue practicing. If you dare to be lazy again, see how I'll deal with you! "
